My Extraordinary Achievement Chapter 93 – First Date
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
“I’m here, where are you?”
Meng Fan saw the WeChat message from Wu Tong and felt his lips uncontrollably curved up into a smile. Soon, he met Wu Tong at their arranged spot outside the entrance of Gang Hui square.
Wu Tong’s apparel was simple. She wore jeans and a t-shirt with a baseball cap, looking cool and beautiful, yet full of youthful energy. No, to Meng Fan, it was full of romantic energy. Regardless of what she wore, in Meng Fan’s eyes, she always looked perfect.
Meng Fan put on his presence masking hat and only taking it off when he walked behind Wu Tong.
As he took it off, Wu Tong turned and greeted him with a bright smile.
Meng Fan’s brain completely ignored that it had been his strong presence that caused her to turn around, and chose to believe it had been a connection of the heart.
He also broke into a brilliant smile but refrained from laughing and made no noise. He was afraid Wu Tong would pull a muscle from laughing like Meng Cai Wei. If that were to happen, it would be too detrimental to the atmosphere.
Upon seeing Meng Fan’s smile, Wu Tong felt oddly happier and was even dazed for a moment.
Without question, his smile appeal had a considerable effect on Meng Fan’s charm who smiled before and after.
“Running two hundred kilometers all the way down here, I feel like you’ve thinned down a lot.” Wu Tong, who finished spacing out pretended to analyze Meng Fan. He really was thinner. She pointed to his clothes and smiled. “Your shirt tells the most.”
“Really? Oh!” Meng Fan and Wu Tong walked inside together. “I didn’t bring any other clothes along the way. This shirt is an old one I left at my sister’s home. I bought it last year, so it might be a bit big haha.”
“That means you’ve lost a lot of weight from running.” Wu Tong had always stood in the position of a witness to Meng Fan’s weight loss journey, so upon seeing he had really slimmed down, she was genuinely happy. How could she let anyone question his weight loss, even if that person was Meng Fan himself? “Have you weighed yourself yet?”
Meng Fan shook his head. “I’ll wait a while before measuring so I can give myself a surprise.” He turned and then continued, “When we finish eating, can you come to buy some clothes with me? I don’t know how to pick them out.”
Wu Tong nodded. “Okay.”
This could be qualified as settling on an activity, and it was better than standing around awkwardly with nothing to do after lunch.
Meng Fan had never been in a relationship before, and he definitely hadn’t been on a date with a girl—yup, Meng Fan unilaterally decided that this was a date—but there was a ‘professional lover’ in his dorm called Xing Ta Ge. Take a little caution each day to eavesdrop, and as long as your emotional intelligence wasn’t too low, you could successfully complete a high-quality date.
Wu Tong brought Meng Fan to the Hong Kong restaurant on the sixth floor in Gang Hui. Although Wu Tong was a running enthusiast and constantly suggested Meng Fan to watch his diet while he ran, she didn’t try to restrict him while she was treating him to a meal out. She selected several delicious dishes without mentioning their calorie count or nutrition value.

After a meal, Meng Fan felt extraordinarily comfortable. Of course, it had felt natural to him too and conversed with her as he ate. Occasionally, he would be fascinated by Wu Tong to the point of being dumbstruck, but he always snapped back to reality.
He repeatedly warned himself not to act like a slob and reminded himself to never act superficially. He did not like that, and he knew she wouldn’t either.
After lunch, Meng Fan offered to pay the bill but was blocked by Wu Tong. He didn’t persist.
Next, they went shopping for clothes. Wu Tong took the task of selecting clothes for Meng Fan very seriously, and Meng Fan willingly cooperated by trying each one on. He ended up buying two outfits.
In the process of shopping, Meng Fan obviously did not flaunt his deep pockets and take Wu Tong to brand name stores to buy purses and clothes, but he still acted very gentlemanly and bought Wu Tong a small gift. It wasn’t expensive and was around a hundred or so.
Wu Tong happily accepted it and she responded, “Then I’ll treat you to a movie!”
Could there be a more benign cycle?!
The movie of course, wasn’t a romantic film, but the latest release, MI6.
The film was enjoyable, but an event in which they held hands did not exist. It would even be extravagant for their hands to touch while reaching for popcorn!
Once the film ended, Meng Fan and Wu Tong were still together. They headed into a nearby restaurant as they discussed the action scenes.
It was already 5:00 pm after the movie ended and of course, he was hungry.
This time, Meng Fan insisted he paid the bill. Wu Tong could try to fight, but there was no reason to and she would not succeed.
It was six o’clock when they had finished and headed towards the stadium.
To Meng Fan, his first date with Wu Tong had gone smoothly according to Xing Ta Ge. A smooth date was a good date, and if he could give her a surprise at the end, then it would be perfect!
“Is a concert a surprise?”
Meng Fan didn’t think so. At least, it wasn’t a ‘surprise’, for she already knew.
There was already a long line up when they arrived outside the stadium.
Meng Fan thought of a surprise. He took out his phone and sent a WeChat message to Bai Zhi and received a response immediately. He turned to Wu Tong and said, “Do you want to go in earlier and take a photo with Shan Jin bro?”
“What?”
Wu Tong paused for a moment and was slightly off guard before asking him, “You know a way in?”
“Yup.”
Meng Fan nodded.
Originally, he had wanted to wear his hat, take Wu Tong’s hand, and walk-in past the security, but thinking about it, he wasn’t sure if the effect of the hat would extend to other living bodies. He confirmed it worked on non-living bodies, but otherwise, people would be able to see his clothes and the phone in his hands.
Additionally, if he really took her hand and marched inside, what would she think?
Therefore, he sent a message to Bai Zhi and asked to bring a friend to meet and take photos with Su Qing Cen.
Every concert had a request like this, so it was not difficult for Bai Zhi to complete. She had responded speedily and asked for a member of the staff to wait for them at the staff entrance.

“Let’s go that way.”
Meng Fan had walked through the staff entrance yesterday and of course, he knew the way… Hold on. He didn’t have to be wearing the hat to hold Wu Tong’s hand. Why not pretend to be in a hurry at this time…?
Meng Fan was artistic and daring. Soon as the staff spoke, he reached out and grabbed Wu Tong’s hand. He quickly rushed towards the staff entrance and pretended to be worried that Wu Tong was unfamiliar with the direction. He made it seem like they were hiding from people’s sights!
Holding hands was successful!
Thump thump thump.
After he reached for her hand, he felt as if his heart was being pounded by a steel hammer. This was way more exhilarating than touching hands while reaching for the popcorn.
The staff member waiting for them at the other end was Bai Zhi’s assistant. They had met yesterday, so they recognized Meng Fan. He notified the employees and took them backstage.
At this time, Meng Fan quietly released Wu Tong’s hand.
Wu Tong snuck a glance at Meng Fan, then curiously lowered her voice and asked, “How can you get in here?”
Meng Fan honestly answered, “My sister knows Shan Jin bro.”
“Your sister?” Wu Tong looked doubtful, but Meng Fan only nodded, so she did not pursue it further.
Not long after, Wu Tong saw Su Qing Cen, Bai Zhi, and the other celebrities who had been rehearsing backstage.
“Fan, who’s this?”
Bai Zhi and Qing Cen greeted Meng Fan, then curiously shifted their gaze to Wu Tong.
If Meng Fan brought a boy or even another girl, they would only be polite, but not this curious.
They were only curious because Wu Tong was very pretty!
Her figure was good and she was attractive. With this kind of image, she could be tossed into the entertainment circle of walking goddesses and still come out fine.
Not only did she have an elegant air, but she was also full of vitality seemingly very calm and quiet.
Static and dynamic!
This was the idiom both of them thought of at the same time. The idiom was often used to describe people, but it was rarely this appropriate, but when used on the girl in front of them, it had been just right.
If someone asked what a girl with ‘static and dynamic’ temperament was, then the girl standing in front of them would be the best answer!
孟凡看到吳桐發來的微信嘴角不夠自主的上揚,很快,他也在約定好的港匯廣場門口看到了吳桐.
吳桐的打扮很簡單,牛仔褲加T恤加一頂遮陽帽,酷酷的美美的充滿了青春的氣息,不,對孟凡來說好像是充滿了戀愛的氣息吧.總之,無論吳桐什麼樣的打扮,在孟凡眼里都是最美好的樣子.
孟凡戴上了讓存在感消失的帽子,走到了吳桐的身后才摘下.
摘下的瞬間,吳桐回過了頭來,對著孟凡露出了一個燦爛的笑容.
孟凡大腦完全忽略了這是因為自己存在感太強所以直接讓吳桐回頭,而是選擇了相信這就是心有靈犀.
他也露出了一個燦爛的笑容,但沒有傻笑,也沒有出聲音,他怕吳桐也會像孟采薇那樣笑抽抽掉,那樣的話,就有點太破壞氣氛了啊.
吳桐看到孟凡的笑容莫名的心情開心了七分,甚至失神了一下.
毫無疑問,因為笑容感染力,孟凡笑與不笑的魅力相差極大.
“兩百公里一路跑下來,感覺你瘦蠻多的.”略微失神了一下的吳桐裝作上下仔細打量了孟凡,確確實實也是覺得孟凡有些瘦了,指了指孟凡的衣服,笑著說,”衣服最說明問題了.”
“啊?哦!”孟凡和吳桐一起往里面走去,說,”我這一路跑來也沒帶其他衣服,身上的是我以前放我姐那的,去年買的,好像是有點大了哈.”
“那也說明你跑步后瘦了很多.”吳桐一直是站在孟凡瘦身見證者的角度的,發現孟凡真瘦了當然高興,哪允許別人質疑孟凡瘦了這件事,即便孟凡也不行,”你都沒稱過體重嗎?”
孟凡搖了搖頭:”等過一段時間再稱,好給自己一個大的驚喜.”轉而,又說,”那等下吃完,要不你陪我買衣服去吧,我不怎麼會挑衣服.”
吳桐點頭:”好.”
這就算是將吃完飯后的一個行程給定下來了,總不能吃完飯不知道去干什麼愣尷尬吧.
孟凡沒談過戀愛,也沒和女生約過會——嗯,孟凡單方面認定了今天就是約會——但耐不住寢室里有一位戀(yue)愛(pao)達人邢踏歌啊,稍微留點心聽,只要情商不太低,一般還是能夠順利完成一次品質比較高的約會的.
吳桐請孟凡吃的是港匯六樓的港麗餐廳,雖說吳桐是個跑步愛好者,也有提議過孟凡在跑步的同時要注意飲食健康,但并沒有在請客的時候將這一套拿出來,都是挑好吃的點,壓根沒提什麼熱量不熱量的.
一頓飯吃下來,孟凡的感受是很舒服的,當然了,孟凡也很自然,該聊聊該吃吃,偶爾會看著吳桐入癡,但也很快回過神來.
多次警告自己不許有豬哥樣,也無數次提醒自己千萬不要把自己放在卑微的位置上,那樣的話,自己不喜歡,吳桐也會不喜歡.
吃完后,孟凡要去買單被吳桐攔下,孟凡也沒堅持.
接著去買衣服,吳桐很認真的幫孟凡挑選,孟凡也很配合的一次次試穿,最終買了兩套.
買衣服的過程中,孟凡當然沒有煞筆掉大手一揮帶著吳桐去名品店買包包買衣服,不過,他也是相當紳士的買了一件小禮物給吳桐,東西不貴,百來塊錢.
吳桐很高興的收下后,對孟凡說:”那我請你看電影.”
還有什麼比這更良性的循環呢!
電影當然看的不是什麼愛情片了,而是最新上映的碟6.
觀影過程很愉快,但什麼牽手及以上的,根本不存在的好嗎,能夠在拿爆米花吃的時候偶爾兩人手碰到一下那就是奢侈了!
電影散場,孟凡和吳桐沒散,他們一邊聊著剛才電影里的打斗畫面,一邊朝著一家餐廳走去.
電影看完已經五點多了,可不得再吃點東西嘛.
這一次,當然是孟凡買單,吳桐搶不過,也沒理由搶.
吃完六點多,散著步朝著體育館走去.
在孟凡看來,他和吳桐的第一次約會還是很順利的,而按照邢踏歌的話來說,一次順利的約會就是一場好的約會,而如果能夠在約會的最后有一個驚喜的話,那就是完美了!
演唱會是驚喜嗎?
孟凡覺得不是,起碼不驚啊,都是知道的啊.
到了體育館門口,這邊已經排起了長隊開始入場.
孟凡想到了一個驚喜,拿出手機給白芷發了一條微信,很快看到了回復,然后問吳桐:”你想早點進去和山今大哥合影嗎?”
“啊?”
吳桐愣了一下,然后驚喜問:”你有辦法?”
“嗯.”
孟凡點點頭.
其實,他原先是想戴上帽子牽著吳桐的手直接走員工通道進去的,但仔細一想,他也不確定牽手后帽子是不是也能將效果附加在其他生命體上,非生命體他是確定了的,否則別人就能看到自己的衣服或者拿著拍照的手機了.
再者,要是真就這麼拉著吳桐的手徑直順利的往里面走,到時候,吳桐怎麼想.
所以,他給白芷發了微信,說是想要帶一個朋友去找她和蘇青岑合影.
這種要求,每一場演唱會甚至是每一次活動都會發生,白芷并不為難,很快就回復可以,讓工作人員在員工通道等他.
“我們走那邊.”
孟凡昨天走過員工通道,當然知道在哪…誒等等,似乎也不一定要戴上帽子才能拉吳桐的手吧,這時候,為什麼不裝成一副急匆匆的樣子呢…
孟凡藝高人膽大,說完,就伸手一把抓住了吳桐的手快速朝著員工通道走去了,一副怕吳桐不知道方向,造成一種別讓別人看到的假象!
牽手,達成!
當當當當.
孟凡抓住后,感覺自己的心跳像是大鐵錘啊,這可比在影院里拿爆米花碰到要刺激多了.
等在員工通道的工作人員是白芷的助理,昨天見過,自然認得孟凡,和這邊的工作人員說了一聲,就帶著孟凡和吳桐往演唱會后臺去了.
直到此時,孟凡才不動聲色的將手給松開了.
吳桐別有意味的看了一眼孟凡,然后好奇的壓低聲音問道:”你怎麼可以進來?”
孟凡如實說:”我姐和山今大哥認識.”
“你姐?”吳桐有些疑惑,但見孟凡只是點了下頭,也就沒有追問.
不多時,吳桐就見到了正在后臺準備的蘇青岑還有白芷等明星.
“小凡,這位是?”
白芷和蘇青岑跟孟凡打了招呼,好奇的看向了吳桐.
如果孟凡帶著的是男生或者其他女生,她們也會這麼禮貌的問一句,但絕不會有好奇.
之所以好奇,還是因為吳桐很漂亮!
顏值高身材好,這樣的形象就算是丟在女神滿地走的娛樂圈,也是很出彩的.
難得的是氣質,元氣滿滿又有著一種很沉得住的恬靜.
動靜相宜!
這讓她們兩人同時想到了一個成語,這個成語經常會被拿出來形容人,但很少是真合適且到位的,而放在眼前這女生身上,恰到好處.
如果有人問一個有著動靜相宜氣質的女生是什麼樣的,眼前這女生應該是最好的答案了!
PS:求推薦票!
The heck, what are the last paragraph mean. Haha

Meng Fan introduced her, “Wu Tong, she’s my classmate.”
“Classmate?”
Bai Zhi gave Meng Fan an accusing glare, seeing through his deceit, but did not continue to ask.
Su Qing Cen was not familiar with Meng Fan, but Bai Zhi was. At least, familiar enough to know that Meng Fan was too low-key to bring an ordinary classmate to the backstage of a concert. She knew Meng Fan didn’t want people to know his status, as Meng Cai Wei’s younger brother was afraid that it would cause some trouble.
Maybe they really were classmates for now, and maybe they would only be classmates in the future, but Bai Zhi was 100% certain that Meng Fan wanted to take their relationship one step beyond just classmates, and maybe even several steps.
“Everyone says that the girls from the academy did not lose in appearances to girls from the film academy, and today I’ve seen it for myself.” Bai Zhi eagerly approached and grasped Wu Tong’s hand, taking the initiative to take a photo. She also took out her own phone and handed it to Meng Fan and smiled. “Take one on my phone too, I have to leave a memento. If others ask about pretty girls at the art academy, I can show them this picture.”
Who else could it be but Meng Cai Wei!
Did Meng Fan foresee that Bai Zhi told Meng Cai Wei about this before arriving?
Of course not. Standing next to such a beautiful person, how can he be so thoughtful and secretive?
But seeing it had come to this, he didn’t hesitate to help Wu Tong and Bai Zhi take a photo. Liking Wu Tong wasn’t a shameful thing.
The only trouble would be Meng Cai Wei’s endless interrogations.
Although Meng Cai Wei had a sour attitude and loved to dig her nose into his business, it didn’t mean that she doesn’t respect him. She wouldn’t try to interfere with his relationship, and shouldn’t request to meet Wu Tong… Right?
Moreover, with Qin Jiao as her “spy”, Meng Cai Wei could inquire about his business with Wu Tong anytime.
Besides, Bai Zhi’s actions were very obvious, and Wu Tong wasn’t dumb. He had previously mentioned his sister before, so she must have realized. If he had hesitated and let Wu Tong think that he didn’t want his sister to find out about her, then it would have really been GG!
It seemed Meng Fan had single-sidedly assigned Wu Tong to the role of his ‘girlfriend’ or future girlfriend. It was a pretty indecent thing to do.
After Meng Fan helped Wu Tong and Bai Zhi take a photo, Su Qing Cen also got the assistant to hand her phone to Meng Fan, then handed him Wu Tong’s phone next. He really became a photographer.
They happily took the photos and signed autographs.
After finishing up, Meng Fan and Wu Tong did not stay backstage and followed the staff to the VIP area.
An awkward air took over once they sat down.
There were already several fans in the venue who surrounded them with bustle, but the atmosphere around Meng Fan and Wu Tong was silent.
“It seems… The lunch I bought you was a bit too cheap.” After a long silence, Wu Tong began to speak.
Whoosh.
When other people took their female dates backstage to take photos with the singer, shouldn’t they begin flaunting after? How did it come to be a dilemma for him?
Hearing Wu Tong’s words, he let out a long sigh and then asked a question testing the waters, “If you think it’s too cheap, then can you treat me to another one when we’re back at school?”
“So your sister’s in the entertainment industry?” Wu Tong couldn’t resist her childlike curiosity and finally gave in. “Is your sister a celebrity?”
She could tell and it wasn’t just Su Qing Cen who knew his sister, but Bai Zhi as well.
Just knowing Su Qing Cen could be explained by other means, and knowing Bai Zhi as well, she was 99% also in the circle.
As far as she knew, Su Qing Cen and Bai Zhi did not debut at the same time. The two had a good relationship and became friends inside the entertainment industry.
“Yeah, to me she is a star.” Meng Fan had pride on his face. “But she insists she’s only an actress. She’s really stubborn.”
“Anyone who says so must be a great actress!” Wu Tong looked at Meng Fan but didn’t ask him who his sister was. However, she was curious deep down, but she didn’t want to ask Meng Fan. Then, her eyes lit up. “Actress, with the last name Meng, with an attitude that is very… unique. Is your sister Meng Cai Wei?!”
Seeing Wu Tong looking at him, Meng Fan wanted to tell her, but since she already guessed, he could only nod.
He didn’t consider what changes to his relationship with Wu Tong this knowledge would bring, regardless if it was good or bad.
He didn’t want others to know he was Meng Cai Wei’s little brother, not only because of the trouble it would bring but also because he was afraid he wouldn’t be able to live confidently next to Meng Cai Wei’s glowing halo.
There were many people who had parents, sisters, and brothers that were in the entertainment industry, who after being interviewed always spoke of their hatred of living under their shadows. To Meng Fan, these people were all nonsense. They hadn’t found their own calling yet.
Once you find what you want to do, even if those boring people say you are way below your brother, sister or parents, you would only laugh at them!
Besides, if there were shadows, there would be light. The benefits these people enjoyed from the light far outweighed the negative impact they received from the shadows!
Of course, Meng Fan didn’t have any plans to join this industry.
Seeing him nod, Wu Tong was shocked. “This is very unexpected!”
Meng Fan could only laugh dryly.
As more and more fans entered the venue, more concert aids started to light up.
The concert began at seven thirty.
With the appearance of Su Qing Cen on stage and her stunning voice, the atmosphere of the concert began to heat up.
Meng Fan had seen this concert before.
Even so, he was in a gallant mood.
Similarly, Wu Tong was in high spirits as well.
She maintained her silence, but it didn’t prevent her from being excited in the presence of her beloved singer.
To Meng Fan, seeing Wu Tong jump around singing along and dancing to Su Qing Cen with the rest of the fans was an interesting sight.
The concert procedure was the same as the one he saw before being reincarnated, and the only difference being the companion next to him was not Chen Da Qiang, but Wu Tong.
Of course, not everything was the same. For example, when the overhead camera swept over the fans, Meng Fan appeared several times on the large screen. Even during the lucky fan segment, the lens had been locked on him.
He did look pretty good on screen though. After all, he had gained +6 photogenic appeal.
As for his presence, who can argue with it?!
+11 validation wasn’t just a number!
Su Qing Cen and Bai Zhi from backstage were both surprised and nonetheless, was Wu Tong.
Su Qing Cen knew Meng Fan, but she didn’t specifically request for him to be the ‘lucky fan’.
“That’s magical!”
Su Qing Cen did not hide her surprise and did not worry that others would accuse her of arranging this afterward. She smiled and waved at Meng Fan, then introduced him to the audience. “This lucky fan doesn’t need to introduce himself. I know him, and some of the fans present might also know him too.”
She then turned to Meng Fan. “Thank you for running so far to see my concert.” She then turned to the audience and said, “He really ran here! He’s the fan in Weibo yesterday who ran here from Hangzhou. And he took all the gifts he received from streaming the run, which was a lot, and donated it to my Shan Jin charity fund. Let’s applaud him for his dedication!”
Applause rang through the crowd.
Because he had already seen it once and no matter how excited he was, it wouldn’t be as fresh. He did not expect the freshness to hit him like this.
As a lucky fan who had been introduced by his favorite singer, Meng Fan would be lying if he wasn’t a little bit excited and happy. Plus the roar of applause that had been for him, what can he do but smile? With a little smug and full of excitement, he began laughing!
His laugh was incredulous!

The Madec Legacy
The dawn of Emotion Based A.I.s is here, John is the fifth test subject to have an AI implemented in his brain, and so far the first one to survive. Blinded by the dream of immortality, the researchers push the tests to inhumane standards. John is obligated to take part in sessions of torture designed to test the limits of the AI influence over the physical and mental health. What was supposed to be a new beginning in life turns into living hell. An (un)lucky twist ends his life. John then reincarnates with his AI in a new world where a System influences the interaction between Magic and Matter. With seemingly limitless potential and a game-like system influencing the world, the hero sets on his journey. --AUTHOR NOTE, PLEASE READ-- I will state here my promises to you, potential reader: 1. No harem! I don't trust myself to make a harem feel natural or healthy, I never met any person who has a personality that can adapt and live in a harem for reasons that are not monetary, so I can't draw inspiration from real life. Sorry!; 2. The enemies will not be bland and illogically mean. Some may feel like that at first, but I will take great care in fleshing them out, trust me. You may end up hating some, but you won't be able to deny that they had their reasons for what they did; 3. I am using a paid (and expensive) automated editor tool, and I take longer to write because I take my time in editing the stuff. I am aiming to improve and I will not shy away from constructive criticism, nor take offense for no reason; 4. Characters will die and will suffer, some will get over the tragedies and improve, others will not be as resilient. 5. This novel has a lot of ground to cover, it is neither a short story, a manual on crafting, or the script of some action scene. There will be both time skips and oversimplifications of some actions for the sake of moving the story forward. Time skips will be more prominent in the first 30 chapters. I will describe crafting processes and fights with more detail if they are essential for the chapter; 6. If I took my time describing something, it's because it is important. I hate novels that waste time describing useless stuff. If you skim over something, the chances are that something in the future will not make sense. I am an adept of "Chekhov's gun" principle; 7. I already have 31k words on my auxiliary documents, I have a plan for the story, and I will not be making changes even if someone ends up noticing some foreshadowing and figures out what will happen. The story comes first. 8. I have a wife, a job that demands 9h every day and courses related to my job (lawyer) three days of the week, it's unlikely that I will be able to do mass releases at all. I will have a healthy amount of chapters to be able to post at least 1 chapter every day continually. Don't worry. 9. I will read all the comments. I will listen to all you have to say and will try my best to accommodate demands as long as they do not hamper the path I prepared. 10. There is an arc that spans the entire novel. Each volume will be an arc in itself while progressing a little bit of the main arc. Every arc will have one or more main antagonists. I think that's it! Thank you for reading it all. Have an awesome time reading my first novel!!

Condemned
“The human body is a fragile thing. But the soul... The soul is malleable. Easily tainted. All it takes is one drop of blood to dye it all red.” Long ago, in a time remembered only by a few, the seven lords of Syvernia, led by the Great Hero Ludwig, ended the Great Calamity that plagued humanity for as long as time itself. It was the dawn of a new age of man. . . until the thirst for more poisoned the new lords. Slowly, the thread that held humanity together loosened and a thick haze consumed the lands between. Mysterious vanishings, supernatural forces, and silence warns of a looming threat inside the coat of fog. Though the struggle of the realms did not interest Leor, for he was condemned as a Purblight, until he took a seemingly simple job: escort Alden to Lightendale and collect the handsome reward, a reward that would let him live the rest of his life with ease. But it’s never that simple, especially for someone who denounced the Gods. All his life, death followed Leor everywhere he went, cutting down his friends and family. When his first love died at the hands of an agent of light, he was prepared to throw everything away until a mysterious voice promised him a chance for retribution and a chance to bring her back by completing the seven trials. Thrown into the realm's struggle against the approaching haze and themselves, will Leor, a Purblight and an acquaintance of tragedy, use the very power he disdains to accomplish his goals? This is the rewrite of my novel: Condemned; I changed it to past tense and added/ took out some ideas from the original. This is essentially the first draft since I'm writing as I go. Also, there might be or might not be Gore, Sexual, or Traumatizing content. I only put it there for a disclaimer in case I want to add it. I have no set release schedule yet, but I'll try to post once every 2 week. Thanks for your patience.

An Average American in A High-school Academy Anime
An American versed in narrative tropes and more than mildly acquainted with anime wakes up in a completely different bed than the one he went to bed in. Now he has to scramble to understand where he is, what's going on, and hope to God he isn't in a relationship drama. I don't expect this to be good or well-received, but I have plenty of time this quarantine, so I'll try to get a chapter of 4000-10000 words out every one or two weeks. (haha) Please let me know how it can be improved. I'm an avid reader of fiction, but I've never really fallen down a rabbit hole so hard that I can name all tropes and settings and such by heart. I'm not sure if this will be effective satire, so I preemptively apologize. Inspired by: "My Life is Not a Manga, or maybe..." by EO Tenkey and "The Simulacrum" by Eganthale. Check them out if you want probably better stories than this one.
