"Where's that freaking book?" I said while trying to control my anger. I've been searching for it for about one hour. I'm now not happy, thus I am very pissed.
The library is big in this school. Yah! I'm already pissed, if I didn't need this for our reports then I will not waste my time here.
"Why did I forget the title of that book?"
Yeah I forgot the name of that book. I only remember its cover design. If I saw it, I would remember it. That's the reason why I can't go to the librarian and ask. I put it on another shelf.
I stopped when I felt the cold air, a different cold. Goosebumps. Curse governs my mouth. I'm now scared. I'm a man but I can't help it. I'll just find that book so I can leave this library.
I remember that some students say that there are ghosts in this library. I'm not afraid to see a ghost, I'm already experiencing ghosting. Waah, why am I still making it a joke? Maybe there is a ghost in here, I'll die in here because of panic. Why am I even scared? I'm not scared. Fuck.
I heard some loud footsteps. My heart is like having a race, it's so fast. I can't even breathe properly. While I walk faster the footsteps are getting faster too.
I turned my sight to the librarian. Why is she sleeping? I'm the only one here and it's already 6:00 pm. I heard someone whisper at me. I didn't understand it but I got scared.
I became pale and I felt goosebumps, because I felt that he or she was in front of me. There are so many books in front of me so I can't see them. Now I'm at the edge of the shelf, and I feel relieved that I found the book I've been looking for. I hold the book and I'm about to get it but someone stops me. My eyes got wide and I couldn't do anything.

I quickly ran, but why do I feel that the door is too far? Fvck that librarian, why is she so sleepy head?
I saw a bloody girl, it gave a shiver throughout my whole system. My heart is pounding so hard. I can't even hear the noises around, I can only hear my own fvcking heartbeat. I became more scared when I couldn't open the door. It is locked so I can't do anything but cry. I was about to go to the librarian when I saw that she was not in her seat.
"Aish." I whispered.
I heard different voices on the edge of the library, they were crying and laughing. I closed my eyes when I heard a high pitched scream and I knew that it was the voice of the librarian.
"Help!" My voice is cracking.
I tried to kick the door and I kept shouting to know that I'm still here. I heard someone calling my name and I bravely looked back.
I see the body of the librarian, full of blood. After that I felt something liquid in my head, when I touched it, it's blood. I look at the ceiling. And then I saw her, smiling at me.
"Do you miss me? Have you forgotten me already? You're next by the way." She smirked, I almost forgot. I killed her two years ago in this library. Because she ranked number one in class while me, I lost because of her.
"Long time no see, Ahn Lemon." I said while smirking then I saw her holding a knife. And before I could do anything she grabbed my neck, then everything went black.

Viceroy's Pride
This story could be about the Tellask Empire, ruler of a thousand suns and faced with imminent peril at the hands of the Orakh hordes. It could be about Paltai Amberell, the scion of a noble elven House, fallen upon hard times and seeking to find the key that will restore his family's name and save the Empire itself. It could be the story of his voidship, The Viceroy's Pride, powered by magic and crewed by a team of crack marines as they search for adventure and the solution to the Empire's myriad problems. Instead, this is the story of Daniel Thrush, human electrical engineer, befuddled researcher and survivor of the debacle that was first contact with a spacefaring civilization. Due to a combination of luck, magic, hard work, and more luck he is thrust into the center of events as Earth is shoved onto a much larger stage rife with semi-immortal elves and magical kingdoms that predate the Earthly invention of agriculture. Earth is outnumbered, and we have precisely one wizard. Dan. He's not very good at it, but he's going to have to learn in a hurry or watch everything he knows get torn apart by massive spacefaring empires straight from the pages of a fantasy novel. ---------- Some readers have noted that the MC tends to be weak willed and pushed around a bit. A significant portion of the story is his character growth into not being a pushover (i.e. him being passive is in the early chapters on purpose). I'm just including this caveat/warning to make sure that readers aren't surprised/upset and that they stick with it until he learns to stand up for himself. His arc begins to crystallize around chapters 25-27. If that's too long to wait, I get it, I'm just trying to do my due diligence and warn you that the character development is a bit of a slow burn. This is NOT a harem novel. Nothing against them, just not what it is. --------- Updates Monday, Wednesday, and Sunday Feel free to bother me on our discord- Discord!

An Unwavering Craftsman
Given the hereditary nature of classes, everyone expects Damien—the child of two high-tiered adventurers—to be granted a high-tier combat class of his own. Expectations are betrayed, however, when Damien finds himself instead saddled with a crafting class of the lowest possible tier: [Neophyte Tailor]. Left practically crippled compared to those with better classes, Damien wants to avoid becoming a pawn in the machinations of the nobility, desiring only to grind his level in peace while wondering why the usual rules of inheritance were broken. Was it his desire to excel by his own effort, rather than an unearned blessing from a god? Did the Five take offence at his opinions on the unfairness of hereditary classes? Or maybe it was something to do with the alien voice that intruded on his ceremony? A voice that offers great power, and freedom from the tyranny of the Five, but that never names its price. This story is litRPG-lite. While the class someone possesses controls most of their lives, people don't get dinged at for every level they gain, nor can they see their status without undergoing a special ritual. The MC has no romantic interest. Crafting is merely a way to game the system, and doesn't feature heavily in the story, aside from a few descriptions on how they're carrying out the system abuse. There is, on one unfortunate occasion, maths. The pace is quick. This was a participant in the Spring 2022 writathon. (i.e. it was posted as-written at high speed. I may give it another editing pass in the future.)
