Advertisement
After i finished changing my clothes, i gone out of my room. Just right outside of the door however, a maid was waiting. Aside from the usual maid clothes, she's a beastkin with yellow eyes, hair, fox ears and tail with white tip.
Though i have seen beastkin's working in here before, this is the first time i saw her. More over, she was looking at me with eyes of devotion.
...Probably just admiring the angel behind me though.
"...Lady Yukari, the king want to have breakfast with you."
Ho? The opportunity opened itself. Maybe all that luck is useful after all.
It's kind of strange though... I never give out this name to anyone aside from that angel.
...Could it be a surprise event?
"O-Okay, i will be right on it. Thank you miss..."
"... Can you please stop messing around, Lady Yukari ?"
"...Boo~.You're no fun, Ran."
"And please don't pout like that either, Lady Yukari. Think about your dignity for awhile."
...Yeah yeah, i know it was Ran.... Really, you're no fun either.
"I'm a bit surprise though, how could you get in here so fast ?"
"I'm also surprised myself. After i have done what you asked earlier, i'm thinking of a way to return to you when i stumble upon a maid's application test for the palace. After i successfully got the job as a maid here, today i have been called to greet you in person... It's as if everything just happen to follow my way."
"Yeah... her power is just that frightening, isn't it?"
"It's just as you said, Lady Yukari.... Speaking of, where is her now? I just felt her coming into this place just a moment ago..."
"She's just doing some of the thing i told her to do... She'll be back, i'm sure. Hurry up, we can't let the king wait isn't it?"

8:45 am
"...On perhap of this kingdom, let us begin our morning meal."
Politely , the king declare the begining of our breakfast. Currently we're in the dining room on the north side of the castle, eating on the long table set in the middle of the room. The maid, Ran included, were standing on the side of the wall.
Well then, Thank for the food~!... even this get translated.
The stir-fry grasshopper salad today is also delicious.
"...Pardon me, is that what you do in your homeland?" (princess)
"Um...Y-Yes it is, Your Highness. Before every meal, we give our gratitude to the nature for giving us food."
" Is that so... how lucky of you. To still be able to give thank to nature..."
"?"
"Ah... No-Nothing!"
Hm... I see. So it's like that....
"...S-Speaking of, I'm very sorry that you have been dragged here because of our trouble."
Ah... So they do feel sorry about that. This would rule out the "cruel royalty" stereotype.
" Ah no... It's fine... Being dragged by that angel, it cannot be helped, right?"
A drop of tear gently fall to the ground. Seeing that, the princess rushed to my side and hugged me tightly.
...Uwaaan~~, i should have slept earlier.
"...Truly, we're very sorry."
...Oops, they look really depressed now. Even the king have clenched his hand underneath the table.
I guess i shouldn't said "how can i go home now" , or i won't fulfilled my objective ... It's so tempting though.
"It's okay, really.... Say, since it was so hectic yesterday, i haven't had a chance to learn your name. Can I ?"
"... I supposed we haven't introduced ourselve before. Very well."
The king then slowly put his right hand over his chest, before introducing himself. The princess is also doing the same thing.

"My name is Marden Vinthas, King of Regrana. I welcome you into this kingdom."
"And my name is Adile Vinthas, The First Princess. It's a pleasure to meet you."
"...My name is Maribel Hearn...Though i may be inexperience, please take care of me."
"..."
A moment of silent continue to go on before it have been broken by laughter. After a while, the king spoke while still chuckle a little.
"Hahaha... Miss, you should only said that when you're about to get married, you know."
"Y-Yeah, i only said that as a joke, since it's too gloomy ealier..."
"Is that so...I see..."
"Um... Let resume eating our breakfast, please. The salad was really delicious."
"Hahaha... You're right! Servants, bring us more food! Let treat her more of our proud delicacy!"
"Father, please restrain yourself ! You're becomed way too excited again."
...Well, with that i have known the two's name.
Next, let turn to the magician.

Same Crap, Different World
A young man from early 21st century wakes up in a different world. This world is like a typical setting of an fantasy isekai novel. But it is also not. There is magic, alchemy, magical creatures, different non-human races, peasants and nobles, demons and dragons. But there is also politics, persecution, supremacism of every kind, entitlement, slavery and other unpleasant human tendencies. In short, this new world does not differ much from his old one. However, besides him, there may be others who have made such a strange trip, and awakened into this new world. There certainly have been others, in the past. But more than people and other living things, there have been items. All sorts of items, which are regarded as otherworldly artifacts with unknown danger and power. And he himself is an artifact as well, albeit a living one. Therefore he has use for the powers that be. He is also given a role and expectations to fulfill, to hide his real value. And in all that he still has to make sense of what has happened, what is happening, and find a way back, if possible. Author's note: I write this project mostly in (except chapter 1) in 60-100 page (40,000-70,000 word) chapters, edit them as such and later cut them down for publishing into 7-11 page segments (depending on natural breaks in the flow). Therefore, each chapter may be divided into 10-15 subchapters.

Bear trap (statehumans CalTex)
(This book has nothing to do with furries, otherkins, or irl therianthropes. Both by their own definitions and my own, we have nothing to do with each other. Keep being your weird selves just don't pretend I'm a part of those groups because I wrote this book with animal/human hybrids in it. Any comments trying to talk about furries or otherkins will be deleted because it makes me physically uncomfortable. Therians are ok tho because it's basically the fancy way to say people who have spirit animals)There are two races in this world, humans and therianthropes, which are humans with animal qualities, that can shapeshift into their animal counterpart. The therianthropes, once divided by predator and prey, joined together in hiding after the humans began to hunt therianthropes for sport. California, a young grizzly bear therianthrope, was always curious to see the world beyond the forest he and his people lived within. Texas, a young farmhand, always wanted to catch a therianthrope, believing it would make him the hero of his village after violent massacres and thefts had been performed on it, supposedly by therianthropes.But when these two young men's paths collide, secrets, strange new feelings, and a magical adventure turns everything they thought they knew about the others race upside down.Warnings:- statehumans- countryhumans - the country and statehumans are all kinda just mixed together. There is no obvious separation between state and country, they're all just people - guns- and ships- hunting - idk, vegans?- gay stuff- not super gory, but people do get hurt - maybe death
