*BASH*
I watch one of my bouncers slam his head into the table. As he brings his head back up his nose is bleeding and forehead already starting to bruise, this just adding to the black eye and assortments of other injuries on this man’s body.
“Goddamnit Phil, I told you once before if you ever came back I would kill you, so Why THe FUCK DID YOU COME BACK!”
I try to be calm but my anger gets the better of me I hate it when someone doesn't listen to what I say.
“Listen Nicholas I'm sorry alright, I didn't mean to come here I promise. I was brought here with my wife, she wouldn't go anywhere else or take no for an answer, I swear. I didn't bring any of my gear. You know I would never go back to the same place, please listen man!”
He starts to plead and beg but they’re all the same, thinking I'm stupid.
“Listen Phil I have only 3 things left to say to you. 1. I know you're skilled enough to not use gear. 2. I said I would kill you if you ever came back and I always do what I say I will do. 3. You better say your goodbyes right now.”
“No, No, NO. Please Nicholas I beg you don't kill me, please, please!”
I look towards little Tim, nod my head and start walking away.
“Oh yeah Phil, never call me man, if you do once more I will kill you in your next life as well.”
I say without looking back.
*BANG*
I hear the gunshot go off and I know his body will be dealt with, with high importance.
Now back to my business.
I walk through the metal doors to the main lobby. I step out and look out into my, MY

, casino.
Greed is rampant and money is flowing, oh how I love too see the possible gain but loss on all those foolish peoples faces.
Oh, how I love making money and watching others lose their own.
I couldn't help myself and smiled, no I didn't just smile, I laughed. I believe today is going to be a great day!
“Hahahah”
“Sir, can you please stop laughing so manically, you're scaring the guests.”
I only notice one of my employees after she spoke up.
“I'm sorry Jennifer just enjoying myself, and I'm sorry too anyone who was bothered. A free game on me.”
As I apologize I hear the small group of people near by cheer. It's ok it isn't that expensive and it's doubtful they would win anything anyways. Poor fellas.
As I walk to my office I look around and keep my eye out for any influential people or my right hand man.
I don't necessarily need to meet anyone but new connections are new connections.
For my assistant I must discuss a more important matter. It's not important right now but in a few weeks it may be very serious.
The announcement for the release of the newest and greatest VR known to man.
Welcome Online, oh what a wonderful idea and game it will be. I can't wait to play.
I couldn't help myself and I start to chuckle again for all the possibilities that will be apparent very soon.

The Last Journey
A slice of life litrpg story... or is it? It's burning slow, though. Moving on: War comes with a great cost. Lives and time wasted for most part. One could either be run with sword, be poisoned, be bowed, and sometimes meet their end with just a tiny speck of wood. With magic, it becomes even more colorful. From lightning, to worse poison, to hovering rocks, to weird bladed leaves, to whipping roots, and to a lot more odd things easily reasoned with magic. A wonderful creation. But once used to something more than wonder, more than tricks to gather laughs, it becomes worse. War becomes worse. For there is not only blood to be spilled. A particular town almost met the same end. Soldiers geared with swrords and bows came with mounts. Horses burning lush grasses as it cracked boulders and the soil alike with every step. The kind that only war ones could ever do. Even strange wheeled creations that oozed danger were towed, loaded with something meant to destroy. But not once had they acted upon what such devices should've done, nor what an an army is supposed to do. Siege never occurred, as much as a command to war. No. Magic existed so a simple little fire is all the worth the town has. No sword drawn, no arrows nocked, nothing. Just some mana spent and through the ash they march. That was how Nudius saw her end. It came not even as a surprise. She didn't have the moment to fully register what occurred before she found herself in an empty dark space. Life lost, time spent. All from a fire that had not even touched her. But she knew very well that it was magic. Something she wished to have and strived for to have. Yet it seemed that none of it would matter now. Nudius was well aware of what the color around meant, of the odd situation, of the unfeeling state of her being. It was death and that was it. She didn't have to worry or dream further. Although there wasn't what she truly wanted in what death to her is, but at least, Nudius was comforted to what she believed death is. Rest. But little did she know there's something more than that empty space. It wasn't only the promise of rest, but was also more than she could ever hope for. Another chance at life. Another chance to dream. ***Tags are there just in case. You never know! Umm... HI-MI-TSU. Story blurb+: This is slow burn, quite slice of life story about a girl learning magic. All the while as she fatten herself up. So yeah, progression fantasy. But there's Litrpg! Numbers! Magic! Spells! And of course! There's something more. But read on ahead, please. Oh yes. Plot! There is, too. Disclaimer: The cover isn't made by me. Just layered it with a text. I got it from a free website, if I correctly recall. I'll see to it. (Haven't worked on it.)
