《Beyond The Worlds[BTW]》Ch 7: starting a mess

"Brother, are you going to school?" Akira knew that his brother applied to a school, but he didn't want to share details about it.
"Yes." Shin responded and placed a kiss on her forehead.
"Brother!" Akira blushed and became shy.
"You look so cute and blush" Shin was wondering if her sister is some angel's daughter.
"Do not tease me!" Akira patted her chest cutely.
"Alright, alright. I'm leaving." Shin left the house.
"Stupid brother!" Akira looked at her brother's back. 'Why can't I forget you?'

"Students, we have a new student today." The teacher introduced Shin to the students in the class.
"My name is Shin Akash." Shin introduced himself with an innocent smile on his face.
"So beautiful." The girls were mesmerized by the smile. After the performance, Shin sat in an empty seat. He knew that no one would pay attention in class, so he decided to think about his future plans.
"Why are you looking at me like that?" Shin looked at the girl who was sitting next to him. This girl had a small body, green hair and slightly reddened eyes and a face that looked like it came out of a painting. The girl looked at Shin with a puzzled expression.
"Yaya Takanashi, you can call me Yaya." Yaya introduced herself.
"You can call me Shin." He knew there were a lot of people who didn't like being called by their first names by strangers, so he was a little surprised when the girl didn't seem to mind.
"You have a strange aura, Shin." Yaya couldn't describe the feeling he felt upon seeing him.
'Don't people call it love at first sight?' While Yaya was lost in thought, a student approached Shin with a calm smile and said, "Newbie, do you know the rules of this school?"

That boy was Hoshiko Hatanaka, he is the class representative. Your gaming skills are best in class. Hoshiko didn't like the attention Shin received, so he decided to intimidate him.
"Rules? What rules?" Shin asked with an innocent smile.
"Newbies must have a match on their first day. The people at this school are very rotten, I better help you not lose too much." Hoshiko pretended to be kind.
The students in the class knew about Hoshiko's personality. The boys didn't care about Shin, but the girls were secretly rooting for him.
"You are so kind! What game are we going to play?" Shin asked with an innocent smile. Hoshiko secretly scoffed when he saw that Shin looked easier than expected.
Yaya, who was watching the situation, felt strange. 'Should I help you?'
"Let's play 'head or tail'. Let's start with $25,000." Hoshiko had confidence that he would win. It wasn't the first time he'd intimidated a novice.
"All right." Shin nodded. He knew Hoshiko would use tricks to win, but those tricks don't work on him.
Everyone in the room was watching the match between the two, but most were pessimistic about Shin's victory.
"Let's get started" Hoshiko flipped the coin. "Head or tail?" He asked Shin with a smile.
"Head" Shin replied.
Everyone was looking at Hoshiko's hand, when the coin result was revealed, the room was silent.
'How is this possible?' Hoshiko was in shock to see the result. 'Did I go wrong with something?'
"Looks like I won. Senpai is so kind to help me on my first day." Shin continued with an innocent smile on his face as he spoke.
Hoshiko pursed his lips at Shin's words. "Rookie, we're going to have one more game. This time we're going to bet $50,000."

"All right"
After hearing Shin's confirmation, Hoshiko flipped the coin again. "head or tail?" Hoshiko asked
"Head" Shin didn't change his choice.
Hoshiko smiled when he saw Shin's answer. He was sure he had won this match, but…
"Looks like I won again." Shin smiled
Hoshiko didn't say anything. His mind was a mess.
'How the hell did I miss it?' He was sure the coin was on the "tail" side
"Senpai, you need to pay me" Shin left his bank account number and left the room. He knew that Hoshiko couldn't go back after losing a bet. Nobody at this school can.

The Dawn of Blood
As the saying goes, "Ignorance is bliss." That is a good way to describe us. We are constantly seeking to improve, to evolve. Coming up with laws and theories to better understand the world around us. But what if it was all for naught. What if what we think is truth is nothing more than the actions of higher beings, far beyond our reach. Upon the discovery of an entire new reality, remaining ignorant is certain death. The only way to live is to grow, to evolve, to adapt. This is my first novel so any feedback and criticism is greatly appreciated. I hope that I'm able to grow as a writer through this and hope that people enjoy my work. Credit for the cover image goes to Richard Luong. Check him out at https://tentaclesandteeth.deviantart.com.

Psyche Reflection
In the universe, Year 20XX, there exists people who are able to enter the cognitive realms of others and alter their perceptions and emotions, for better or worse. These people are known as "Divers" for their ability to dive into the psyche of others in a process called the "Psyche Dive". The cognitive realm is unique to each individual, hence it's also named the "Reflected World". There, one's innermost emotions and beliefs are materialised when the balance between the id (source of psychodynamic energy, represented by our desires and individuality.) and the superego (represented by our conscience and need to conform to society) is disrupted, with the id overpowering the superego more often than not.As a result, the excess psychodynamic energy on either side results in the formation of Spectres, ghost-like beings that haunt the ego (an individual's personality) and push a person to ruin by clouding his perceptions of reality, influencing his decision making in the process. If left unchecked, Spectres would continue to grow in number and power, eventually consuming the ego completely to form Demons within the person's psyche. At this point, it is extremely difficult to restore a person's id to its original state, as Demons are often extremely powerful and well-protected by their army of Spectres. People who are possessed by Demons are often twisted individuals who commit the most heinous of crimes, as they have lost all of their conscience and morals, fuelled only by their desires. The Divers are the last hope for humanity against the Spectres and Demons. Armed with the power to use their cognition to fashion into effective weapons against these abominations, the Divers seek to cleanse the minds of victims from such insidious influences. 21 year old Lee Jin Kai became a Diver abruptly on his first day as a University student, after a chance meeting with a beautiful foreign exchange student by the name of Aiko Verde. Despite having different motivations, the pair must now stick together, as they traverse the psyches of various people while gathering comrades, resolving real-world issues in the process... Inspired by Persona 5.
