《The Lost Characters [Vanilla Dark Fantasy]》051-The class of 80 pages...
Advertisement
Two years and seven months flew by. Adam finally made it to 80 pages at the age of 15. His classmates also achieved the same milestone respectively, as Achilles had said they all advanced at the same pace, or he wouldn't advance with the class.
The next goal was to reach 100 pages for both Adam and his classmates; it would seem that there would be an official celebration upon reaching that amount, which Adam was very excited about achieving.
In these two long years, many things happened for Adam, but luckily none that put his life at risk. The negotiation with booklets was taking a long time and the eyeless old man seemed to be in no hurry; Instead, Adam, yes.
There had already been many times that he had to run away for fear of provoking some lunatic on the lower floor 5, luckily everything ended without too many complications once he ran towards the cave. But the fear remained.
The booklets were not so easy to convince, in general they were used to his life without many worries, so the vast majority of them just ignored Adam and continued with his peaceful life eating dust. The few booklets that responded to Adam's proposal asked so much that the old man with no eyes refused to accept the offer, so the negotiation never progressed.
Luckily, the white wood family didn't seem to be in a rush either. In his shelf days it would seem that 2 years was a short time, and they still didn't say anything to Adam for taking so long to get the booklets.
Although, this new routine as a businessman and book seeker was a little more exciting for Adam than just waiting on the stairs. According to his godfather: already getting a usable magic book before getting the black cloak from him was something that very few librarians had achieved.

Also, waiting on the 4th floor was not as good an idea as it used to be, little by little the situation was getting more and more out of control and the frequency with which dangerous creatures appeared only increased. Almost every day at least one librarian disappeared, and the guards were not able to control the situation.
So Adam didn't like to spend a lot of time in that flat anymore, he just went to school and to the market to buy some other nonsense. Over time, he realized that the characters were only used to buy the basic things to have a good lifestyle. But secrets, information and magical books couldn't be bought or at least couldn't be bought in the middle floor market which was the only one Adam knew about.
Although the boy did not complain, the advantage of being rich was not having to work to buy his food. Although, the cave helped him: stocking up on infinite food. Eating blue mushrooms every day was torture for Adam, so he searched the market more often for supplies.
Today, to celebrate 80 pages, Achilles asked all students to attend classes a few hours earlier than normal; It looked like there was going to be another special class. Adam was super excited about the possible special class; in so many years of studying, he realized that the only two special classes he had were the best lessons of his life in school so far.

The Wizard Division
Everyone knows that magic is real, that it's the driving force behind the evolution society has gone through over the past few thousand years. Everyone gets annoyed by faeries that steal your socks, or swap your car for a carriage, or coat all your food with salt. Because things like that don't matter enough to hide. Everyone learns about Hitler, the darkest necromancer ever known,who singlehandedly waged war on the rest of the world, in school, and the other similar events in history. Because they were too large to hide. But for everything else, the veil hides the magic from the mundane. There might be an unlicenced werewolf working as your librarian. Maybe a dragon owns your local banking chain. Maybe the murder victim who was killed in a locked room WAS killed by an angry ghost. Or a shapeshifter. Or the elder Fae. Or a rogue Wizard. The solution? Everyone knows the answer to that too. The one thing every police department in the world has in common. The Wizard Division. The L.A.W.D. (Los Angeles Wizard Division) is in for one hell of a ride, when Charlie, a new trainee foisted into the world of magic joins their ranks, and with him a whole host of new and unusual magic sheananigans comes to Los Angeles. Updates twice weekly. Make sure to follow for more updates.
8 85ICOMO ODYSSEY
Jonathan Vélo never expected to be famous. Not for riding his bike all the way around the continent of Icomo. Every adult knows his story, and children learn about him at school. This, however, is the first and only biography written about that great man with foreigners in mind. We, his biographers, imagine they will be immensely grateful. Of course, readers will find the people of Icomo an unusual sort for glorifying a young man who did nothing more than quit his job and ride his bike from town to town, city to city… But in an age of robots and computers, when little escapes the notice of the historian, there is a quiet epic to be told. It is the epic of cozy nights in a tent below the stars, of warm wind and ocean waves. It is also the epic of missing old friends in faraway places, and that feeling of needing to make life mean something. *** ‘ICOMO ODYSSEY’ is a nostalgic slice-of-life adventure about a utopian sci-fi land. No clever villains or epic fights here. Just cozy pleasures, charming towns and villages, interesting cultures, and the people who live in them… This story will update bi-weekly on Friday and Saturday. https://www.scribblehub.com/series/467210/icomo-odyssey/

8 185The Kind Devil
Five veteran players of the old-fashioned but outdated VRMMO game, Orge's Bone, meet in the game for one last time before leaving forever. As real life friends, they were torn apart by certain matters, and now decided to say goodbye in the way they know best; a free for all battle royale. However, little do they know that fate has a twist to spin. As they fight it out in a folorn map, they stumble upon a secret teleport gate. Out of curioisity, they all enter it. They find a world more graphicly advanced than the current number one game, and NPCs that really don't act like they should. The game settings are similar to Orge's Bone; there are no levels, only physical strenght gains, which is gained by killing monsters and completing quests. They treat the hidden world as their greenhouse– a place to retreat when the real world treats them unfairly. But after a while, they discover no everything is as it seems– that the hidden world is far more dangerous. Michael is a cultivator whose goal in life is to change the tragic martial world, where killing is like breathing, into a land of peace. It will center a lot around how he'll change the perspectives of those around him, and how he tries to draft more cultivators to his cause, starting with the toughest nut to crack, the ruthless, bloodthirsty and easily-triggered Rector. Last but not least, with how he is met by the greatest tragedy and is forced to make the hardest choice.

Set in the MMORPG TERA(The Exiled Realm of Arborea). I got bored on the long commute to and from work(about 1.5 hours each way) and decided to flesh out some of the ideas I've had about my character in game. I write about a chapter a day on weekdays, maybe on weekends too depending on the stuff I have to do irl.
