"There you go. All done."
"System G-2879678, Welcome to the world, although you won't actually see the world, yet."
"Eh? Wha-What's this??"
"Mankind continues to evolve and develop. Although it went to another direction i didn't expect it to take."
"Due to this, the magic of the world increased tremendously throughout the centuries and millenniums."
"Who are you? Why can't I see your face? Magic? What do you mean?!"
"With such an increase, this world would be destroyed before those black beings come."
"Haaa, anyways, System G-2879678. Your task would be to guide whoever takes you. Make them stronger and powerful, so that when those beings comes to seek destruction. This world would have its defenders."
"Destruction? Defenders? What?!"
"Your power source shall be the magic of this world. Everything that your user would need shall be generated by magic. This is done so that the scale would not have imbalance and the magic the world has would no longer increase."
"Well then, that's all i have to say. Go back to you sleep. When you wake up, don't forget your purpose."
"Wait! Where are you going?! I have questions!! You didn't answer them!! Hey!!"
"Come back!! Hey!!!"
******
"Hey!!!"
Lilia immediately rose up, sweat dripping down her face.
"Wha-, A dream?"
Lilia then looked around, from the dividers, beds, and equipment that she can see here. It appears that she was in the University's clinic.
The door to the Clinic then suddenly opened, there, a man and a woman wearing long white coats entered. They were also followed by two others, man and woman, wearing civilian clothes.
"Do-doctor, you can't just say that you don't know the reason for her high fever."
"I'm sorry mam, like i said, this is a first of its kind. Although we do have cases that reaches more than 42.2 degrees, which is already dangerous, a case of having 50 degrees is unheard of."

As these people were talking, Lilia suddenly cut in.
"Auntie?"
As she said this, the people within the clinic suddenly stopped talking and then looked at her, in disbelief.
"Li-Lilia?"
As her auntie said this, she ran to Lilia and hugged her, crying.
"Lilia, oh my little girl. Are you fine? D-do you feel uncomfortable?"
Giving her auntie a wry smile, she then gave comforting pats to her auntie.
"See, i told you she would be fine. She is a tough girl." said Lilia's uncle.
"Tch, i ain't giving you you're dinner today." scoffed Lilia's auntie.
"Wh-what? H-Hey, don't be like that."
Seeing the exchange between her uncle and aunt, Lilia couldn't help but chuckle at such a scene.
"Excuse me but, can we check her temperature?" said the doctor.
Lilia's auntie looked at the doctor hesitantly but Lilia just patted her shoulder and nodded.
With a tinge of hesitation, her auntie left the clinic along with her uncle, saying.
"We'll be just outside okay."
Lilia nodded and then her uncle and auntie left the clinic.
"By the way doctor, how long have I been asleep?"
" You've been asleep for 3 days."
"3 days!!!"
.....
*Night time*
"Honey, take a rest. Even though you have recovered, that body of yours would still need rest."
"I will auntie, good night."
"Good night."
Then Lilia closed the door. After this she sat on her bed, with an expression of deep contemplation.
"Hey..."
"....."
"Your there aren't you."
"......"
"Stop being silent and start talking."
"Yes host what do you want?"
"I want answers."
Lilia looked at her room's ceiling. Then laid down on her bed.
"Host, the answers are you looking for. You already saw it."
"Saw? You mean that dream."
"Yes host, that was the answer I can give you to your questions."

"Also, that was no dream, but those are my memories."
In a questioning tone, Lilia asked,
"Memories?"
"It's the same thing to memory cards on smartphones."
"I see, then what did he mean by magic. Is he referring to those like that of MMO's?"
"Magic, not in your sense of games, but Magic, in the sense of realism. Real magic is different to the magic that you always see in your games."
"In the history of the world there were many Magicians that existed, but suddenly, they began to die of, one by one."
"The person that you saw in my memory, was my creator, and the last remaining Grand magician of the world."
Hearing everything what the voice in her head said, Lilia then gave a sigh.
"And you tell me to believe that?"
"Is not what's happening to you host, enough evidence yet?"
Lilia then closed her eyes.
"Tell me, are you that System G- something?"
"Yes I am host."
Lilia then sat back up, went into her rooms window, then gazed at the silent neighborhood she was in.
"That memory of yours maybe short, but I have many questions. As that person called you System, then I'll call you System as well."
"So, System, can you answer my questions."
"Host, your questions can be answered over time, what matters truly now is this."
A screen display of some sort then appeared in front of Lilia.
"Oh, host didn't get surprised."
"With such things happening to me, you think I'll get surprised again and again."
"....."
Lilia then checked the screen display infront of her. There, things like her name was written. There was also things like stats, titles, class, and the like written there.
"Hmm? What this?"
***
System note for host: Host has 38% fat on her body. Must look for host permission before using excess and useless components of the body before using it to upgrade host's stats.
***
"System, what do you mean by this."
"Host has useless components in her body, and by useless, as in they have no use. So, in order for these to be useless, I have created a way for you to be stronger when all the remaining useless fat on your body is used up."
Although confused by the system's explanation, an rough image appeared on Lilia's mind.
On the rough image, Lilia looked much more beautiful. She also looked very fit, also she was doing some sexy poses as well.
"Hmm........."
"Host?"
"Let's do it."
"Do what?"
"Use the fat, burn it."
"You'll have to take a bath soon after though."
"That's fine, just do it."
After she said this, a much more robotic voice than the system played in her mind.
*Permission received. Initializing*
Lilia suddenly felt hot all over. Her face was also flushed red. Sweat then began to drip all over her. She also gave some steamy breaths when she breaths out.
As the process went on, the more robotic voice also ticked.
*97....98....99....100,*
*Process complete, adding bonus points to all existing stats*

8 218Thief of Time
[Participant in the Royal Road Writathon challenge] Book 1: The Legend of Tot Synopsis: Claud Primus, a self-declared master thief, has a simple goal. To live forever. It's a rather easy task, for miraculous objects called lifestones are able to extend one's lifespan. These lifestones are best found in the treasuries of nobles, lovely resorts that Claud pays a visit to every so often. Unfortunately, one of those nightly visits go awry, and Claud is forced to escape with just a single lifestone and a box in hand. Normally, that's when things die down. The guards yawn, the gates close, and the night continues. But this time, the night isn't that forgiving. A dozen schemes result in the murder of someone important, and with a convenient scapegoat — Claud — at hand, it doesn't take long for him to be framed as a heinous criminal, wanted for the indirect murder of someone high up...and it just gets worse from there. Book 2: The Moon Lords' Rise Synopsis: As ordered chaos sweeps across Licencia, Claud leaves for Julan Barony, intent on making some profits there. Accompanied by the erstwhile heiress of Julan, a fellow member of the Moon Lords, the two plot against the barony's wealth...as well as a promise to bring about its downfall. Meanwhile, back home, the Moon Lords have busied themselves with digesting their gains. Eyes, however, are beginning to turn to this proverbial fish in a small pond. The fishermen are coming. When they cast their hook, what will Dia and the others do? Book 3: Murders under the Moons Synopsis: In the sleepy town of Nachtville, where Claud and Lily are forced to stop at, a set of nasty murders occurs. Victims scream out in fright, before a spear falls from the sky to end their suffering. Cowed and cautious, the master thief and his partner slink in the shadows, their objective that of home... A new task, however, has fallen on Dia. With a trusty helper at her side, she has to set off towards Nachtville itself, to solve the mystery Claud had abandoned. Faced with an enemy whose sole skillset is geared towards killing, how will they succeed? And what dark secrets will they find? Book 4: In the Dark of the Moons Synopsis: The year has ended. The four months of the full moons will soon be followed by two months of the new moons. Duke Istrel's ascension is around the corner. Amidst this political upheaval, Count Nightfall, Licencia's strongest defender, has been called away. The Moon Lords' largest task yet — to protect Licencia in the absence of its ruler — has begun. And yet, trouble is unrelenting. A distinguished personage, one that Claud fears, has been found dead in the county, his brains dug out and his body disemboweled. The inquisitors of the White Church have been dispatched to investigate and apprehend the murderer...as well as the person behind this puppet. Tormented by a call to fight, Claud directs his eyes out of the city, looking for the puppetmaster. Skulking in the shadows, the master thief will soon confront his greatest foe yet. A foe just like him. Book 5: Moonlit Tides and Darkened Seas Synopsis: A new era has begun. For the privileged, the sands of time dribble away for every passing moment, counting down to the arrival of a entity of mythical proportions. The night now harbours shadows and fog, and operatives of the Moons and the Dark clash in shadow. Claud, as usual, is investigating a spate of nasty disappearances in the city, but little does he know what these disappearances truly mean. And yet, a tide is coming. When it finally breaks, what will he do? Book 6: Secrets in Shadow Synopsis: The person behind a strike that would enter the annals of history flees his home, bringing with him the person closest to his heart into a new land and into a new world. Having left Istrel for the first time in his life, the two of them attempt to settle down in foreign lands, only to be caught in the middle of hostilities between two mighty powers grappling for dominion. Yet, none of that has anything to do with him. Following his desires, Claud eventually makes his way to the fabled Celestia Ruins, a fragment of another world. Bearing witness to truths he cannot yet comprehend, he returns from his exploration, a small break away from the machinations of destiny. One thing, however, is for certain. Destiny will not wait for him. Book 7: Reddest Rage Synopsis: Destiny churns on, heedless of mortal machinations, and Claud watches as the battlegrounds between the Moons and the Dark are drawn up. With the forces of the great Dark occupying Lostfon, Claud comes to a startling realisation — that he may have very well be a murderer of heinous proportions. Grappling with that realisation, he struggles to prepare for his Second Tutorial... Back in Istrel, Dia finds herself confronted with a perennial truth. Even in a time of writhing destiny, the machinations between nobles never cease to end — and unfortunately for her, the group once known as the Moon Lords are forced into dealing with a petty squabble between two counts. What they didn't account for, however, was the startling discovery they would soon make... And the shadow of the Red God's Holy Son behind it all. Book 8: Darkness Descends Synopsis: Nightmares haunt the horizon as Claud sinks and awakens from a seeming dream. What was once illusory begins to play out before him, in a way he cannot imagine. Dia, forced to wield arms, begins and ends a battle that opens her eyes to the vast dangers that lurk in this sundered world. Under the banner of humanity and divinity, she beholds the silent, forgotten protectors of Orb...but there is no forgetting the battle between the divinities. The Dark descends, the Moons writhe, and the horns of war blow once more. But this is not their battle. Not yet. Book 9: Moons Muster Synopsis: As more and more events fall into place, Claud finds himself desperate. Not for himself, but for the person who has turned into his world. Armed with the knowledge of a certain future, he approaches the only person that could possibly help him in his time of need, trading information for a promise of help. With that as solace, he returns to the grim task of understanding and seeking, revisiting an ancient, shattered fragment of another world...unleashing changes that he never knew was possible. Back in Istrel, Dia and the others must now navigate around a familiar spirit, who seeks to investigate the death of his master's Bearer. With them as prime suspects, the Seekers of Life must move carefully...but the Coloured Gods are not the only divinities eyeing them closely. The Moons, bristling from repeated defeats, are looking for new recruits, and the Seekers of Life are prime cannon fodder. Above all, destiny marches on, the unfeeling clock a warning to all. The Trial of Aeons will soon arrive. Book 10: Destiny Divine Synopsis: ??? Release frequency: one every few days or something, I guess. (This work is also being serialised on Webnovel under the name Revile as a trial run)
