《My Magical System 》Chapter 218: Laugh
Advertisement
"She's pretty and adorable… like her brother."
Zennie smiled warmly and said her thoughts after Eman introduced his sister. She said the last words in an inaudible voice. Her face wasn't thick enough to voice it out. She was unaware that her face was flushed with redness. But she meant what she meant.
However, someone with acute hearing like Eman heard it. Though he pretended he didn't. Although he helped them, he wasn't as kind as they thought. He is, after all, a killer who took many human lives already after coming to this world which is very contrary to his old self. Though he did all the killing with justification.
He had no idea if there were gods or goddesses governing this world. As a reincarnate, he should have met one of them like in the reincarnation novels he read on one of the most popular online platforms.
In addition, he was thrown in the middle of the battle right on the bat. He had to adjust quickly and accept what needed to be accepted. It racked his brain though.
Regardless, since Zennie's carriage was broken and it just so happened that their carriage was big enough to accommodate six people, he invited them to come along with them. Especially when he learned that both of them were heading to the same destination.
Once again, it wasn't because of goodwill. It just happened that he was present. Also, it must be a good fate meeting these people. With this train of thought, Eman decided to help a little bit. It didn't hurt anyone to help though. Especially that there was no hostility among them.
Also, he felt bad for these people if another wave of beasts attacked them. After going into trouble saving them, he could not let his effort be gone to waste.

Also, Eina was tugging the hem of his sleeve. He understood that she wanted to help them. This put a warm smile on his face. At least his sister was a kind-hearted person.
He could be a cold killer but his sister should be the exact opposite of him. If ever something out of hand would come out, he wanted to be reminded that he had a kind little sister.
And yes, he agreed to Zennie's words that his sister was adorable.
After receiving Zennie's compliment, "T-Thank you, Miss Zennie," Eina shyly said her thanks for the kind words. Zennie nodded with a warm smile.
Sitting in front of them were Rossbert, the servant Miss Liz, and then Zennie.
The guards were tagging along with horses. The broken carriage, he stored it inside his domain.
However, while Zennie and Eman were conversing, throwing questions towards each other, Rossbert was in his own thoughts.
He wondered how Eman was able to store that size of objects inside a spatial ring. Sneaking a glance at the spatial ring on his finger, it wasn't the highest grade.
The highest grade spatial ring had a gleaming stone at the center of the ring. The ring on Eman only had a dull stone in it like most of theirs.
Rossbert recalled that only the highest grade spatial ring could afford to store such an object as big as the carriage. Also, he even produced three horses for the guards to ride in tandem.
When he pointed it out to him a while ago, Eman just said a vague reply.
(Uh, it's my interdimensional space, Mr. Rossbert.) Rossbert while recalling Eman's reply to him.
He could not delve deeper into the topic as the young man even went to trouble in helping them. Really, they were grateful to him. In addition to that, he owes his life to this young man. Something welled up from within Rossbert upon thinking that he was saved by him.

"Eman, if some unexpected event befalls you, don't feel reluctant to seek my help! Also, just call me big brother Rossbert from now on."
He announced, interjecting in Eman and Zennie's conversations while pumping his fist against his chest.
Eman and Zennie were slightly stunned at the sudden, but soon Zennie chuckled while Eman had a light smile on his face. Eina, on the other hand, had her mouth formed like the letter 'o'. In her mind, 'my brother is so awesome!' She admired her brother even more. Gaining someone's favor wasn't an everyday occurrence. It was a rare occasion especially when the related person was mainly a stranger.
However, before Eman could reply.
"Ahem!"
Zennie's servant, Miss Liz, voluntarily coughed.
"Mr. Rossbert, I think it's more appropriate to call you uncle than big brother. Young master Eman, don't give this man any more consent…" she said while sending an eye to Rossbert who was right beside her. Rossbert already had dead eyes and a troubled face.
Miss Liz continued saying, "Although he looked like 30, his actual age is 40."
Eman was not sure if it was only his imagination but he heard a choking sound from Rossbert. Also, there seemed an ascending soul going out from Rossbert's mouth.
"Pft!"
Everyone was stunned when a chuckle escaped from his usual nonchalant countenance. Then it was followed by laughs.
"Haha-haha!"
Tears were forming at the corner of his eyes. "Sorry, sorry, it's just, I didn't expect that," He said while brushing off the tears. Even Eina did not expect to hear her brother's laugh. It also put a tear on her eyes. It was the first time she heard it. Her brother always had a serious face before. Then after coming back from the subjugation mission, there was only a nonchalant face on him. He seemed like someone who ascended from a somber person to a statue.
So after hearing his laugh and the expression on his face just now, a tear fell from her round beautiful eyes.
At Least her brother was actually a human. She always worried about it in secret.
Even Eman wondered when was the last time he laughed honestly. He already forgot. Maybe before he was framed. And before Marie Belle went abroad. It was a long time ago now.

Magriculture
When Aurum Industries announced the first Full Immersion Virtual Reality Massive Multiplayer Online Role Playing Game (FIVRMMORPG if you're hip) Limitless Online, most people saw it as an opportunity to live out their sword and sorcery fantasies. John, however, saw it as the opening of a new and as of yet uncrowded job market. One he was willing, and eager, to exploit. Determined to make money through virtual hard work and effort, John sets his sights not on the heights of magic or the perfection of the sword, but instead upon the tilling of the soil and the sowing of seeds as he explores the wide and wonderful world of magical agriculture all from the comfort of his own bed. Disclaimer: This is, at best, a very rough draft. I have already had to do one major rewrite and several minor rewrites of entire sections of the story, and it is a virtual certainty I will have to do re-writes again. Such changes may be as small as editing a few numbers (such as going back and changing how much mana an object holds) or it may force me to re-write entire chapters (this has happened once already, and I'm really hoping it doesn't happen again, but... life). Minor re-writes will probably never be posted here. Major rewrites probably will.Anyway, what this boils down to is: If you're looking for a fully cohesive story with few to no errors and publisher level editing, this is not the story for you. If your looking for a cohesive plot that's more than "Man farms, man farms, man farms well, man maybe makes money" you're probably also in the wrong place, but I will attempt to entertain you anyway.

A D&D Gamer in Garweeze Wurld
He doesn't know how he got here, and while the trappings are familiar, he doesn't actually know where he is, either. From the perspective of those around him, Duromar is a half-ogre barbarian, an uncivilized brute by any standard you care to use. But from his perspective, he's a character created in a gaming system. From either one, he must live within the rules of that system. This is the story of a gamer who ends up in a game that's just a bit off from what he knows. ---- I wanted to write something a little bit old-school. Most of the LitRPG I've found seems to be based on computer RPG styled stories. Progression through levels is fast, and depending on the game, skills and even attributes can be trained with or without class levels. This wasn't true with the older pen and paper games, and that's the style of leveling I wanted to write.
