October 19 2006
Third Person POV
Alex was currently waiting for someone at one of the most fanciest restaurant in Manhattan, He sat there quietly as he waited for Emma Frost, his soon to be Ms. Pots
After a while of waiting she arrive and slowly move towards him, all the while prompting others to turn their head at her beauty
Emma Frost stand just about 5'10 with blue eyes and blond hair, she is truly the epitome of a high class woman
Alex felt a mental probe on his mind which made him smirk, he ordered Athena to try and troll Emma Frost which the little one accepted with glee
"Ms. Frost! Welcome!" Alex said as he stand up from his seat and stretched out a hand, all the while Athena was blocking out the mental probe with advance mathematics as she calculate her three sizes with an algorithm in his head
'Hey isn't that a bit rude to measure her three sizes?' He telepathically said to Athena
'Nah..just continue talking with her, you did order me to troll her so just zip it and don't interfere kay?' Athena replied
Emma was dumbfounded as she reviewed what she got from his head and took a long look at Alex, while trying not to lash out at his preposterous thoughts
"Ms. Frost?" Alex ask as he inwardly chuckle at Athena's antic
Emma came out of her stupor and responded "a-ah yeah! Thank you for inviting me Mr. Alexander"
Alex smiled handsomely and said with a tease "No..I should be the one whose thankful Ms. Frost because a woman of your caliber decided to grace this lowly me with your presence"
Emma's eyebrows rose at his blatant attempt at flirting, which it did kinda work because of his handsome face and regal attitude
Alex smiled and once again Athena decided to send a mental image of a half-naked Alex at Emma, showing off Alex's well toned body
It was almost at the point where he was about to remove the towel covering his lower region when Alex who was taking a sip at his wine almost spit it out when he saw the mental images she was sending
'ATHENA!! WHAT THE HELL!! THAT'S TOO MUCH! TOO MUCH!' He scold Athena

Emma on the other hand was almost getting red like tomato but thankfully, a few breaths she successfully compose herself with a poker face though she was a bit of disappointed not being able to completely see his naked body but she still took a few glances at Alex's body a few times
Alex on the other hand decided to break the awkward atmosphere and started to get down to business
"Ms. Frost the reason why I emailed you last month was because I'm trying to create a company and I need someone whose knowledgeable in business to run it" said Alex as he look at Emma who raise her eyebrow "You see, I'm creating a company that will deal with space exploration and technology in the future, while all the necessary legal procedures are already done, I am quite in a bind as I don't know how to run a company myself and I needed someone who can run it for me"
Emma look skeptical as she listened to Alex "So let me get this straight, you want me to run your company for you? And what makes you think that I would agree?" She said
Alex smiled and replied "Oh I'm sure you would and beside you need all the help you can get to get out of you Fathers grasp"
Emma was stunned and gained a hard look on her face, she tried to mentally assault Alex which only made him chuckle "Ms. Frost, please there's no need to use your powers here"
Emma's eyes widened when she heard Alex and she questioned him about it "How do you know that!?"
Alex stand up from his seat and slowly move towards the glass and said "I know a lot of things Ms. Frost; Mutants was it? I know your kind existed along with humans for years now and don't get me wrong I'm not here to threaten you, I'm just here to give you a chance" Alex stared at one of the building at the distance and added "and as for your situation; I did a bit of a research you see, Emma Frost born in Boston, Massachusetts, to the wealthy Winston and Hazel Frost. Third of four children: Christian, Adrienne, and Cordelia. Always wanted to escape his Father's grasps so she set out and leave home to carve her own path" 'eliminate'

Emma caught his projected thought and look at where he was staring, she use her power to scan the area up ahead, at a distance away a man was holding a sniper rifle trailed his sights to Emma when suddenly the man fell down confusing Emma in the process "what was that?" She ask although she wasn't able to get any info on the man because it was too far away but she did caught his last thought and that was to kill the two of them
"It seems like your father brought a new meaning to the word ruthlessness, trying to kill his own daughter to prevent the rise of an another potential competitor" said Alex who then look at Emma "I'm giving you a chance Ms. Frost to escape the grasps of your father, when the company enters the market I assure you it would be on par with Stark Industries and don't worry about your father or the hellfire club coming after you, I'll handle them myself" he turned to her with a smile only comparable to a devil who was giving her a deal and said "so what's it gonna be Ms. Frost? Do we have a deal?"
Emma recovered from her shock and became conflicted "This feels like a deal with the devil to me but sure I'll run your little company for you on one condition"
Alex raise an eyebrow and said "and what is it Ms. Frost?"
"You must know that when mutants comes to surface everything will go south very fast for them, so when the time comes when you have enough public support I want you to publicly support mutant rights, agree to that and we have a deal" Emma said in all seriousness
"Deal" Alex smiled then took a sip at his wine "so how did you like my body Ms. Frost?" He said in all mischievousness
Emma was startled but then adapted a sultry look and said "Oh...I like it"
Emma was in all honesty quite content with their deal although it was a bit of a rollercoaster from the start but she was happy that with this opportunity she could finally escape her father's grasps, her thoughts then move to those memories she saw earlier and smiled "oh..I'm going tap that ass" she muttered
********
In a dimmed room, a man in a blue suit with light brown hair was sitting on a grand chair while taking a sip of red wine, he was listening to the reports of his secretary
"Sir, according to the feed our men were not able to eliminate the threat, we recovered the body and found a bullet wound on his head and concured that he was killed before he was able take a shot" said the secretary who was use to her boss' show of grandiose
The man stop sipping at his wine and frowned "how about the others?"
The secretary replied "Sir, for some reason the police got a tip on their whereabouts and ambush them with almost 2 squadrons of SWAT, I've already ordered our men inside the prison to silence them"
The man's eyebrows were digging down, this event was too much of a coincidence and his gut feeling tells him that the man; his daughter met was the one responsible for every shit that happened today, he turned to his secretary and said "Call Shaw, tell him I need that favor now"
His secretary nodded and leave the room, he stand up from his chair and press something on a remote
The window covering on his office retracted, showing off New York's beauty at night, he once again took a sip at his wine and muttered "My daughter, if you think you can escape me then think again"
He turned around and was about to leave when a bullet shot flew in breaking the glass and killing him directly
He drop like a sack of brick and his secretary came rushing in and screamed, she scrambled to call the security while running out of the room
At a distance, In a rooftop adjacent to this building
A silhouette of a person holding a futuristic sniper rifle materialize with the insignia of the Bat, The person then move to the edge before muttering "I don't leave loose ends behind" he then jumps off the building leaving it without a trace

Follow Jack as he works to understand and navigate the new world around him. From heartbreaking losses to amazing experiences, Jack's life will never be the same. A slow build, slice of life. Blue Mage MC who learns skills from monsters. Skills are not intuitively known and must be trained to be able to use properly. This is not a rapid rise to power story. It's more of a pseudo-Isekai. As the setting quickly changes to a Fantasy one. (with elements of steampunk and sci-fi but not until much later) The story does not get very adventure-y until chapter 17.

New Game (Reborn as a Reluctant Demon Lord, Book 1)
Portal Fantasy. Isekai. A daydream of nerds everywhere, leaving behind their boring world and living in a fantasy one that is full of adventure. A daydream that became a reality for me and 1000 other Comic-Con attendees. Except for me, it was more of a nightmare. Wanting nothing more than to find a way home, and also saddled with being the world's new [Demon Lord], I found myself trapped in a gamelike world and also somehow a part of the [Hero's] party. So join me as I tell the tale of my struggles. A tale of levels and skills. A tale of cagey game admins and bugs. And a tale of our party's grand quest to defeat... Well... Me. ---- What to expect from this book? 1. A main character who is not overpowered (and instead has to go from near-useless to strong. Not just weak to strong). If you are looking for an OP [Demon Lord] who laughs at his weakling enemies... This isn't for you. 2. A meandering pace as the characters aren't told how a lot of the world works and have to figure it out themselves. (And because there are a lot of characters. Whose idea was it to have a party of 9? I blame Jake) 3. A tragedy. A lot of things are not going to go well for the protagonist. (Not that everything is tragedy all the time. There is humor, laughter, friendship, and even a mascot monster character who got way more popular than I expected. But this is not a story that will leave you uplifted and inspired after every time you read it). ---- Release Schedule and publishing information: Book 1 is complete! I will include a link to book 2 once it has been started. Feel free to give feedback, positive or negative. ---- Other notes Book 1? Yes, this says Book 1. There are probably going to be 3 books. No, the plot as you can guess is not going to be tortured to drag out all the way to book 3. That would be ridiculous. If you can guess the plot of books 2 or 3 at any point before the last chapter of book 1, please use your clairvoyant powers for something more productive. TitusGM?

I initially planned to answer everything in character on this site, but that just really didn't work out.

Monsters as Men(A good v evil story based on reincarnation in different worlds)
The Monsters have taken over the universe. With their corrupting system behind them, which they use equally for power and recruitment, no one can compare to their strength. Good has been nearly eradicated, with its god slain, and the one who picked up its Mantle tempted to evil. In contrast, the god of Evil is growing, getting stronger. Only one person can defend the world against this threat. This is the tale of the Bluejay. The magic system in this world is based on a few types of energy: Note(for Songs), Will(for Thought), Mana(for ordinary magic, because I felt like it), Spirit(for Spirit Magic), and Dominion(for Aura). This is very much a work in progress. Any suggestions are welcome. This is set in the same world as my other story, Spirits of Eternity. [participant in the Royal Road Writathon challenge]
