________________________________________________________________________________
The next morning,
Jane: Wakey wakey Lee! Get up, you have to get ready now.
Lee: Mornin mama *yawns.
Jane: Good boy come on let’s get you all dressed up.
Lee: Why?
Jane: Because you’ll be going somewhere special today!
Lee: Me? Only me?
Jane: Uh-oh, well yeah it’s only you who’ll go there.
Lee “Huh! Only me. Did I do something wrong? Oh god no!”
Lee (tearing up): Did I do something wrong? *sob why should I go away from you? *sob
Jane: *sigh no son you didn’t do anything wrong, you are not leaving us don’t worry no one can take me away from my child. Stop crying, good boys are brave. You remember the brave boy who met the lion right, did he cry?
Lee (softening up): No, I am brave I won’t cry! (Stands in good guy posenyone remember rock lee)
Jane (smiling): Now that’s my son! Come I’ll help you get ready.
After sometime,
Lee was dressed and brought to the main hall, where the rest of his family was waiting for him.
Lee “Well this is certainly new, I wonder why everyone is here?”
Hans: Young master, please sit. (Gesturing towards a chair)
Lee: Thanks uncle Hans.
Paul: Now, Lee from today onwards you will be going to a place called school.
Lee “Oh! A school, so that’s why its only me who’s going”
Paul: There you will meet many new people and learn new things. Remember to listen to the words of your teacher.
Lee: Why should I go to a school to learn Martial Arts, we have a dojo right?
Hearing this, everyone starts laughing.
Lee “Huh. Did I say something wrong? After all in my previous world schools used to teach Martial arts and magic.”
Jane: Little Lee, in school they teach you other stuff not how to fight.
Lee: Oh!
John: Ok Lee, say bye to mama and grandpa. We have to leave, come Sasha.
Lee: Bye mama, bye papa Paul.
Sasha: Bye mom, grandpa.
Jane: Bye sweetheart, make sure to have fun ok?
Lee: Sure.
John drops Lee and Sasha in front of a huge gate which had a name inscribed on top: Atlas School.

John: Sasha, go meet Lee during the breaks ok?
Sasha: Ok dad, bye.
Lee: Bye daddy.
Sasha leads Lee inside by holding his hand and seems to be visibly excited.
Lee: Big sis, why you so happy?
Sasha: Because, from today I’ll be with my cute lil brother for a longer time.
They enter the building and as the floors for primary and mid schoolers were different, they parted albeit rather forcefully, as they were pulled apart by their teachers who then proceeded to take them to their classes.
Lee “Finally I can study about this world. All I did till now was read stories from the picture books of my sister.”
Teacher: Lee, this is your classroom 1-A. Remember to make friends and have fun ok.
Lee: Yes Ma’am.
Teacher “What a lovely kid, he’s so polite”
Lee then enters the classroom and to his surprise is hugged by the twin girls, Lina and Rina.
Lina: Lee, you came!
Rina: We’re classmates here!
Lee: What about the others? Where are they?
Lina: Oh they also came to this school only, but they must be in a different class.
Lee: Oh, is it. By the way, can you both release me now? I have to take a seat as well.
Lina (blushing): Lee, we have a place for you, come sit.
Lina leads Lee by the hands while Rina holds his other hand and quietly follows.
Lina: Lee, you will be sitting in between me and sis Rina.
Lee (sitting): Hmm, where is the teacher?
Just then another kid approaches Lee,
Kid: Hello, my name is Joe. Can we be friends?
Lee: Of course, why not?
Joe: Thank you very much. I am sitting in front of you then, the class start in another 5 minutes so the teacher still has to come.
Lee: Hmm, so that’s what it is….
All other kids look at the two angel-like girls and their antics with the handsome boy and felt out of place, but seeing Joe talk to them like its nothing everyone went and introduced themselves.
The teacher came inside the class and instead of finding it unruly like in the other classes, found it to be peaceful, looking at the kids talking to each other was like watching a beautiful scenery.

Teacher: Good morning class, I am your homeroom teacher, Claire. I hope you all like this class.
Others: Good morning, ma’am.
Then the teacher Claire made everyone introduce themselves and was quite astonished when she saw Lee and the twins. She then told them that she would be teaching them English, and proceeded on to the basic parts.
After the class, Lee went to Claire.
Lee: Ma’am, what will they teach us here? “I wonder when they will start teaching magic, though it seems different from my previous world, it surprisingly has magic. Otherwise how can you get air from the thing called A.C and how come it’s cold in the fridge.”
Claire: Hmm, you will be learning Mathematics, Science and Social Science here. When you grow older*blush*, you’ll learn other subjects.
Claire then escapes into the fantasy world, imagining how handsome Lee would be in the future.
What she told left Lee dumbfounded.
Lee “What is this, they aren’t teaching magic! So does this mean there is no magic in this world? What on Earth is happening?”
As Lee stood there, Lina reaches out to him and pulls him.
Lina (pouting): You are bad Lee, even if you have us….. You are going to that teacher.
Lee: It’s not like that, I went to ask her a question.
Rina: Oh, it’s ok. We have another class now.
The second teacher, a male by name Steve introduces himself as the Math teacher and starts his class.
He explains some basic math to the kids. At that moment,
Skill gained, Math comprehension
Lee “Hmm, I’ll see the skill later”
After the math class it was time for lunch.
Lina: Lee, I and sis will feed you okay, you must eat.
Lee: Sure but you also should eat.
Rina: We’ll eat, only if you feed us.
Lee: Okay.
The other kids look at the pink atmosphere dumbfounded.
Joe: Hey Lee, what do you do at home?
Lee: Hmm, I play why?
Joe: Nothing just wanted to ask, what do you play?
Lee: I play with Lina, Rina and my cousins.
Joe: Oh! So you don’t play video games?
Lee: What’s that?
When Lee asked that, Joe was so happy that he thought he was the ruler of the seas (or something like that). Joe happily started explaining about the games he played, the rpg games his brother played and the terms associated. He then recommended a guide to rpg games his brother used in order to familiarise himself with it.
Just then a beautiful girl, who was mostly going to middle school came inside. (You all know it, it's Sasha)
Sasha: Leeeeeee, big sis is here.
Lee (turns around): Big sis, ate lunch?
Sasha: No, I'll be eating it here.
Lina: Eh, big sis time's up isn't it?
Sasha: Hehe, Lina is quite sharp. Yes time's up and I already finished eating, I just wanted to tease Lee.
Rina: Geez, big sis. That's too much.
Sasha: Ok Lee, my classes will start now. Bye.
Lee: Bye sis.
Other kids watched this exchange as though they saw the goddess of beauty conversing with angels.
They recovered just in time for the next class.
The remaining two classes were just introductions to the particular subjects. Lee got two more skills.
Skill gained: Science comprehension
Skill gained: Social study
After school, at Lee's house.
Lee: Uncle Hans, please get me the guide to RPG please.
Hans: Sure young master.
Hans leaves and returns with a booklet.
Lee: Uncle please explain what's written.
Hans: Young master it seems you have an interest in these RPG games. Hmm, I'll explain it to you.
Hans explains all the details given in the booklet.
Lee: Hmm, interesting.
Hans: Would you like to play them young master?
Lee: No, not now. I might play later. Thanks Uncle Hans.
Hans: My pleasure young master. I'll take my leave then.
Lee "So this stat system is similar to the status part of the blessing system of my previous world. Interesting!
Hmm, what's this....."
For understanding the characteristics and attributes of RPG system and comparing them with the blessing system, you have unlocked a title(previously locked) The Gamer.
Title unlocked: The Gamer. Attributes and characteristics of a gamer have been included and hence blessing system has been upgraded into The Gamer's system
On unlocking a title you have gained +10 to all stats. You can also receive quests from now on.

The Cursed Heart
Kayden was six months old when the doctor found the curse in his heart. From then on, his life was a struggle to keep it locked away and dormant and above all secret, dreading the day that it would finally break free and wreak havoc. Now he’s fourteen, and that day has come. Things look bad, but there’s hope — the world’s most prestigious magical school is willing to take him in, keep him safe, and pay his legal fees to avoid bankrupting his family. Most importantly, they can teach him to control his curse, to avoid ever hurting anyone else. It sounds far too good to be true, but what other option does he have? Kayden quickly finds himself embroiled in a large political game he doesn’t understand. But he’d better learn fast. Because the secrets of his new school run deeper than he ever expected, and his actions have far more dangerous consequences than he could ever have known. ----------------------- Want to read ahead?

The Tears of Kas̆dael
It was just supposed to be a game. A really, really great game, yes - but a game. Instead, Jasper got his heart ripped out by a brooding goddess and awoke to find himself in another world. No weapons, no skills. Naked. Trapped in a world full of ancient horrors, where gods and monsters still roam the earth, Jasper is forced to adapt quickly or die - and he's not ready to die. Good thing he's a mage. This is a high-fantasy novel with light LitRPG elements. It's not super-crunchy, but the system is an important part of the story. There is some light cursing and gore, but this is not a Grimdark novel. There will also be no harem. The current schedule is chapters on M-W-F of around 2000-2500 words, as well as occasional bonus chapters that provide background or insights into side characters. This is my first real attempt at writing a full novel, but the story is based on a world that I've been creating and re-creating since I was a child. I have an extensive "history" and religion, and even a semi-cohesive language system worked out, which will hopefully slowly shine through as the story progresses. I want to avoid having too many info-dumps, so I may from time to time post a bonus lore chapter that will explain some of the background for any who are interested.

Episode 2: SPAWN
A vampire was destroyed in the city of Two Rivers. Her second death points detectives Alton and Cook of the Unjust Existence Extermination Investigation Force in the direction of an agent of a foreign power, and suggests the existence of a greater vampiric plot that undermines the reputation of the city for fair treatment of living-impaired citizens. Set in the world of Manifest Destiny - a shared hombrew D&D 3.5/Pathfinder 1 campaign setting that has been in use since 2007, this is a fantasy police procedural similar in style to Law & Order. Retired player characters make cameo appearances. This work originally won NaNoWriMo in 2015, and will update every Saturday until complete.
