________________________________________________________________________________
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.

The Curio Shoppe
Kellan Klein is an ordinary college student with an average, if traumatic and painful past. Everyone grows up grappling with depression and anxiety that seem to be genetic in a house with parents that, while loving, fight all the time and have weird ideas about what kids should and shouldn't do, right? Everyone deals with bullying, racism, judgement on their romantic inclinations and their family's economic status and just general shittiness, right? All of Kellan's friends sure did, and for all of them, entertaiment media were a welcome escape from their painful, dreary lives. After all, who wouldn't want to sail the seas with Monkey D. Luffy and the Strawhats, or help Meng Hao con increasingly powerful and influential people, or join Cecil Harvey and his friends on their weird journey to save the world, or make friends with Peter Parker while pretending to not know he was everyone's favorite wall-crawling superhero? Kellan certainly wanted to, and while he pursued college to seek out a career he saw himself enjoying, something felt inexplicably empty about his life. So when a decidely sinister force kidnaps him and the prettiest man he's ever seen saves his life and offers him his wildest dreams, Kellan becomes the shopkeeper of a mysterious, dimension hopping shop, complete with a system that helps him acquire items. abilities, materials, and other cool shit to stock it with, as well as some other neat perks. Will Kellan become a boring overpowered MC, like the kind from web fiction that he reads to sate his boredom? Will he keep his generally kind, sweet nature despite the shit he's gone through and will go through, or will he inexplicably become a scary, violent, irrational arrogant douchebag? Will he use his newfound abilities to explore the multiverse and improve the lives of himself and others, or will he become his own antithesis, a purely mercantile jerk obsessed with money and profit, with no concern for anything that doesn't help or hurt his business? Find out in The Curio Shoppe! Author's note: Please suggest possible setting he could visit in the comments. I'll gather ones i'm familiar with, and at the end of every arc, a poll will be held to decide the next location he visits. There will be polls for other purposes, and I might not always go with the poll winner if I feel one of the other options is more fun to read/write about. I will not use the settings of other RRL writers without their permission.Do not ask for that, unless the author in question gives permission. Most settings he visits will be slightly AU in some way or another, but please remind me if I drift too far from canon unintentionally or characterize a character wrongly. This work will eventually fit all tags I selected once he visits universes suited to those tags, so don't ask when or where a given tag is coming. I do not own the cover art, it belongs to Nicholas Belanger Thiel, and I will stop using it if he asks me to. Kellan doesn't look like the old man on the cover, though once he acquires a disguise-type ability he may occasionally use that appearance. The tapir, however, will be a thing, as despite looking like a failed attempt at an elephant, tapirs are cool and this dragon finds them to be kinda cute. The art, along with more of Nicholas's pieces, can be found at https://www.artstation.com/artwork/51bXz
