《The Irregular At The Merthyr Academy Of Magic》The Beginning!
Advertisement
Magicians.
Magic is called to be a fairy tale or legend back in the 19th century. But with an incident, a normal man possessing special abilities protects his child from a gunshot that was aimed at him by a group of thugs.
At the time, the strange power was referred to as a supernatural ability. They believed that it was a purely inherent ability born out of a mutation of some kind of curse and that the techniques couldn't be shared, spread, or systematized to anyone.
But they were completely mistaken.
As research on supernatural abilities advanced, both in the East and West, all around the world, more and more people appeared on the public stage to talk about "magic." Eventually, magic was able to reproduce those once supernatural powers.
Of course, one needed the talent. But it was the same as possessing skill in the arts or sciences only those with a high predisposition could achieve professional levels of proficiency in magic.
Supernatural abilities were systematized using magic, and magic also became technology.
Those with supernatural ability users came to be called magicians.
These magicians were powerful enough to force even nuclear weapons and powerful countries to yield to them. To nations, they were both weapons and power themselves.
As the magicians begins to appear more and more, the government decided to open magical high schools in many cities. Where young people could learn magic and could help the country to become powerful.
And in Lunar city, the Magic High school is also one of the best magical schools with high-grade magician students. Is also called 1st Magical High school in the whole Lunar City.
The 1st Magical Highschool of Lunar City [Merthyr Academy] is known for being the most advanced institute of magical studies, which graduates and gives the greatest number of students to help the country to prosper every year.

At the same time, it is an elite school that produces the greatest number of skilled magic casters and warriors, who are known as "magicians."
Also, there is no official stance on equal opportunity in magical education.
This country does not have the luxury of such indulgence.
And because of the glaring gap between those who can use magic and those who cannot, any kind of mediation is but an optimistic ideal.
Those who are out-and-out believers in talent.
Those who are almost cruel in their demand for actual skill.
That is the world of magic.
Simply being able to use magic is a kind of blessing and they couldn't able to use any kind of magic is like any curse. Many couldn't able to feel this huge gap that was between them. And sometimes get mockery and become laughing stocks for any magicians and this also caused the hatred between magicians and ordinary people to grow.

[WAKE UP! WAKE UP! Wake UP You Lazy Pup...]
It was already 6:00 "O" Clock early in the morning and the alarm clock was ringing so loudly. Even though the sound was so loud to hear Gray was sleeping so heavily.
"...aghhh."
The feeling of waking up was the worst.
Grey blew the blanket away, excitedly moving his two hands and grumbling.
After all, when you wake up to find you are completely drowned by your sweat, and itching all over your body, with half-completed sleep other than a special group of people, anyone would be unhappy.
"...Sigh" Exhaling, he wanted to cover himself with the blanket again. Looking at the time, it was already six.
"Good morning." Although there was no one to hear his sleepy voice Grey casually said these words to chair up himself.

It was already 1st April 3020 the day of the school entrance ceremony. After Grey come out of his hometown it was already his fifth day in Lunar City.
After waking up from his sleep, and looking around him, he was almost lost for words.
"...All right, I should get ready and check out of this godamn hotel." Scratching his head quizzically, he looked around his room.
Grumbling, he suddenly recalled something.
As his half-asleep brain slowly woke up, last night's memories resurfaced.
Looking at his appearance again, covered with sweat, he let out a sigh. His hotel room in a Lunar City was sweltering because the room's air conditioner was broken, and the fan that was at the seeling was moving at a very slow pace like any turtle was already out of gas.
Although he comes to Lunar City he was broke. The money he was carrying with him was very little, and with that, he couldn't even able to pay the bill of an average-level hotel in Lunar City. And after searching the complete Lunar City did he find this hotel on the very barren side of this city.
Although the hotel looks very broken and old, the stay was in this hotel was very cheap and it was within the pay range that Grey could afford. Leaving with no other choice Gray finally decided to stay in this hotel.
The apartment he was given by the hotel manager was not so big, almost all things were broken, and even the room was not so clean.
Last night when Grey was in his deep sleep in the middle of the night the electric power was cut off causing the A.C to malfunction. Even though it was already the morning there was no sign of electricity entirely coming back.
The backup generator was although good was very old and could only able supply an ample amount of electricity to seeling fan.
Causing the food that he had carried with him and stored in his refrigerator to all spoil up.
"Ah..."
Troubled that he might be late for the first-day entrance ceremony he quickly got out of bed. Holding down his bedhair and suppressing a yawn, he plodded out of the room to wash.
At that moment, the small dusty mirror hanging on the wall caught his eyes.
A boy whose face forelocks were about to invade his vision, probably because he hadn't had a haircut for a while, with his faded brown eyes still plunging in a half-sleep casting a lame look at Grey.
"..."
Together with his declining eyesight, his looks had also been slightly degrading.
Sighing, he barged into the bathroom to get himself washed.
After washing himself Grey put on his Uniform that was provided by the school.
After getting ready and taking his things from this room he checks out of this hotel walking in the direction of the nearby bus depot.

YAOS 1 - Limitless Adventures - Yet Another OP Story Book 1
December 23rd 2018: Book 1 is now up at Smashwords and at Amazon. December 30th 2018: V1.1.2 of YAOS Book 1 is out, some content additions, fixed typos. Amazon's enhanced typesetting now displays tables properly. YAOS is shown through the eyes of some genius athlete getting OP inside a VR, ah wait, Full Immersion game, ?F.I.O?. Not a Hero, not a Nerd, just a driven individual paying for mistakes made, biding time until he can return to the Real World. He isn't defined like you'd normally do it, you can pick his looks and name all on your own, just like you do in video games. Believe it or not, keeping his looks undefined is harder than you think. His backstory isn't expounded in detail, but it drives his choices. Book 1 isn't about depressing sob stories but about fun and rushing forward, pursuing new horizons. Oh, and you'll end on a cliffhanger! Well, most serials do, so you will probably expect that without being told explicitly. But it isn't that bad, there's a lot of reveals and more to come once this book, that is the first in a planned three-part series, is finally ready for release on amazon et al. The published version will have: 1.) Godawful speaker tags, I hate them, they make you stop thinking and speed up editing so much. In hindsight they should have been in to begin with. But I stand by my goals proclaimed earlier. You guys should think while reading, that is the whole point of the exercise. Apply the knowledge and ideas, improve yourself, get creative! 2.) Pretty colored tables, the damned blue boxes, a lot of work, 69 in one book. Finally fixed amazon's centering issue. Can't say I liked the hours needed to debug that. 3.) The promised Mitara chapters. 4.) A cover! 5.) And lastly, updated polished versions of several chapters. MC shares more of his past, some terrible chapters (esp. 32) finally work. Some new scenes, minor rewrites in parts. Text flow and other issues. The current challenge is to maintain essential ambiguity while satisfying people wanting to know more without thinking three steps ahead. Balancing one with the other is tough. The smut which was in remains, but the story told is not to be superseded by it. A 15+ rating for the first book is also important, not to mention, YAOS wasn't meant to contain any smut to begin with. If the Author can turn to writing full time his output should increase, so please support YAOS #1 once it does finally release. ~Thank You~ No maps so far, that should be in, but is really hard to get done right. Again, tips are appreciated. Update September 2017: Stubbed chapters, sorry guys, currently don't have time to upload them elsewhere, polishing book 1 and 2, writing 3, takes precedence. Book 1 is in heavy editing, too much to keep synced and continuing editing. I'd need a site which offers JS-free rapid managing of chapters and comments. Coding one myself or setting a premade up is out of scope until I'm done with the books. RRL-old offered that, nuff said. This is only here because the author believes in fairies, nobody reads this, most likely. October to December 2017: Life threw some curveballs. February 2018: Book 2 draft 1 completed, at ~150K words. Book 2 is fairly epic in scope, requires 1 rewritten chapter, some editing. Tables and miscellanea are in, but needs at least a grammar pass. March 2018: Book 3 at 28k words, first arc, rest needs serious planning for spin-off and satisfying conclusion. July 2018: Yet another proofing/editing session of books 1-3, 101+ chapters, ~300k words. B3 at 48k, starts out great, but no ETA, no wordcount limit, in flux. But prioritizing my writing cannot be done, I hate the delays as much as you, but you will prefer the whole released in a timely fashion rather than wait. Knowing myself how excruciating waiting can be, at least you'll get significantly polished versions and an ETA on book 2 by release of book 1. December 23rd 2018: Book 1 is now up at Smashwords and in the process at Amazon et. al.. . To all who wait patiently, offered feedback, thanks again!

Pranking The Bad Boy
"What the hell?! Kennedy!" I watch as Ryder turns around furiously and strides towards me. Oh oh. Maybe I took it too far... "What's wrong with you?! Did you really have to cover my car in pink sticky notes?!" He steps towards me and I take a step back. He steps forward again and I step back until I'm up against the wall. "Well if you would have left me alone when I told you to, I wouldn't have had to do it," I fire back. He chuckles. "You don't know what you just got yourself into." "What do you mea--" I get cut off by his lips on mine. I freeze. What was happening? And why did it feel so good? Ryder grabs my waist and pulls me closer to him. I wrap my arms around his neck and tangle my fingers in his hair. He bites down on my bottom lip softly. As I was about to part my lips, he pulls away. "Better watch your back," he says. He smirks at me and then turns around to leave. What just happened? ____________________ Kennedy is not like most girls. Instead of getting her nails done and gossiping, she would rather ride her motorcycle or dive jump. She didn't have any friends back at her old school, but will that change when she attends a new one? She meets the bad boy of the school, Ryder. One harmless prank of pouring some pudding over his head starts a whole other war. They prank each other and start to realise that they might have feelings for the other person and the other person might have feelings for them. Will they use that knowledge to their advantage? __________________ Highest rank: #8- teen fiction 12/29/16 Thank you to MySecretDiary for the amazing cover!!
