[Ding! Host has gotten an income of 20 crystals in three days! As the requirements of one week was completed early Host unlocks a new Food Item along with their prize.]
[Host Unlocks: Cinema.]
[New Food Unlocked: Popcorn.]
I jump up in amazement slightly startling Harlow. I got a Cinema? With popcorn too? I walk around the store area and see that now in the back of the room is a door that wasn't there before, opening it up reveals a dimly lit room with a big white screen in the back, with a projector shining down.
[Ding! Host unlocked new System Store Option - Movies]
I open the system shop to check out what movies to watch.
[Host: June Anabelle]
[Videogames]

[System Shop]
I click on the System Shop in my mind.
[System Shop:]

I want to see the Movies section
[Movies:]
- Studio Ghibli I - 20 crystals
- Marvel I - 40 crystals

So there's three selections I can make, but only one that I can afford. What does the 'I' mean?
[ The I means you don't unlock all of the movies related to that series, you get three random movies from each copyright]
I see then, so I'd get three random studio ghibli movies if I bought it?
[Correct]
[Host can still set the prices for everything in the store]
June grinned as she planned on making the movies not super expensive but as the first entertainment cafe she could get away with relatively high prices.
[Movies:]
[Studio Ghilbi:]
-(New!) Totoro
-(New!) Nasicaä
-(New!) Porco Rosso
I decided to begin to set the prices.

-Totoro - 1 gold 5 silver
-Porco Rosso - 2 gold 5 silver
-Nasicaä - 3 gold 5 silver
I thought that I would play the movies three times a day with one in the morning one in the afternoon and one in the evening. Harlow had already paid and left so I collected the plates and put them in the kitchen making a menu to be outside advertising my movies. It was around 9 in the morning and I was on track.
Breakfast Menu (Availiable 8-12am)
-Fried Eggs and Bacon: 8 Crystals (Limit one per customer)
Cafe Menu
-Coffee: 2 Crystals (Limit ∞)
-Black Forest Cake: 3 Crystals (Limit 3 Slices per customer)
Entertainment Options

Movies: Morning; Totoro 1 Gold 5 Silver
I planned to set the price a bit high so the richer kids in town can watch movies but I plan on turning this store into half Cafe/half Arcade in the future. Putting the new sign outside I sit down and fiddle with the games on my monitor.
Kaye's POV
I was exploring town when i happened upon a funny little store called FruitBowl Entertainment, I decided to check it out. When I walked through the door I was met with a cozy interior and a lady at the front desk seemingly busy with something. I walked up to her to ask her what this store provides.
"Exuse me?"
"Oh h-helloe there." She seemed a bit flustered.
"I would like to ask what are you selling?"
"Of course young man, we sell fun here" She then had a mysterious smile
"Fun? whats that?"
"Fun is the want to do something that is only, well, fun. We have a new movie selection today, if you have the time." She smiled at me,

"I have the day off miss, can I watch this movie? is it "Fun" ?
"Well kid, I would say its pretty fun, something you've never seen in the world..." She said with another mysterious smile.
I was enraptured I wanted to see this movie to find out what fun it was, when the lady said it costs a gold and some silvers to watch i gave her the money and she showed me to the spot where i would be sitting, but then she asked me another question.
"Young man would you like to enhance your movie watching experience?
"How so?"
"Well for the price of a couple of gold I can get you a big box of Popcorn signiture snack in movies."
"Of course I want to try 'Popcorn' " and I handed her three golds and in return I got a round box with fluffy looking food inside. Taking a bite I find the food to be light crunchy and a little salty and I smile a lot. Sitting down to watch the movie.
June's POV
I watch as the kid sits down and begins enjoying the popcorn in his lap, the kid seems young but is wearing fancy clothes but is trying to be polite, but seeing that smile I think is better then fake politeness to begin with. As the movie begin I watch as he stares at the screen taking bites of popcorn and in totally immersed. and soon I sat down occationally looking up at his reactions. I chuckle a bit when he laughs in the movie, as he isn't acting all noble and is acting like a true kid like he should be. Soon the movie ends and he walks out of the Cinema and back to the counter.
"Wow miss that was an amzing experiance!"
"Yep thats what fun is, an fun experiance you seemed to have there kid"
The kid smiled again.
"Thank you for the experience miss...?"
"My name is June, or Miss Anabelle if you'd like, and what is your name?
"I'm Kaye, Kaye Lawrence of the Lawrence Merchant Company! I loved your store can I come back tomorrow?"
"Of course you can, and here's a secret" I lean down to whisper to Kaye. "Its more fun with friends"
"Hehe Sure miss I'll bring my friends to visit too!"
"Bye Kaye!"
"Bye Miss!"
Kaye then ran off out the door and down the street. I watched his back as he disapeared, and soon it was afternoon at the store. people occationally came in but not a lot of people stayed behind only a couple stayed for coffee and I got to chat a bit with, and most of them just went on their way and never visited again, even though i saw them walk by. Though sometimes kids would stop by and wave to me through the window. I would wave back, slowly getting used to being in this city.

Mana System - Hello, World! [Complete]
What would you do if your world collapsed and you had less than an hour to choose a suitable role that would allow you to survive? Would you give in to despair? Paul choose to fight for survival, now he has to face off against predatory animals, monsters, and even the land itself all modified by the Mana System. Eventually, he will have to face off against a foe even deadlier than the rest. Humans! I feel I need to add this disclaimer because some people really get their panties in a twist when they reach the second arc. This is not a grimdark story. Yes, there are portions that are dark and grim, including slavery which is why I have the traumatizing content box checked. If you can't stomach a little slavery and torture, probably best to find a different story to read. Complaining that you felt lied to isn't going to make me change my story. If this offends you, leave a review.

Battle Royale across the Universe: The Species Tournament
Join the Species Tournament! You might lose your sanity, and quite possibly, your life. But hey, great adventure awaits. Who would accept such a deal and risk it all for glory and the unknown? Well, apparently quite a few. In fact, 1.000.000 life forms will face each other in this century’s tournament. Who will win and who’ll be sent packing? Who will gain strength and who’ll leave with trauma? Find out on this week’s episode of the Species Tournament! ................................................................................................... Additional notes (for those who want more details before giving the novel a try): - It’s a battle royale type of setting between humans, pixies, elves, and dwarves organized by a Television Channel from the Demon World. - The MC foolishly decides to join the competition and will struggle to redeem himself throughout the story. The unfolding events will force him and his friends to mature in different ways. - Each round will be held in a different location/planet. The rounds and the locations will become crazier as the plot progresses. - There will be a mystery aspect to the story, since the demons don’t really like spoon feeding contestants on what is going on. - You can expect some magic elements, though contestants won't have much access to them. - The members of each species will have their own unique worlds, back-stories, motivations, and traits. Some will fight for personal reasons while others for the sake of their people. The needs of many vs. the needs of the individual will clash on several occasions. - Finally, there will be twists and turns at every corner, so one should never get too comfortable. Thanks in advance to all who read my story, and I’d love to hear your thoughts on it!

LIlith's Firstborn
The legend says that the Forbidden Fruit made the first two humans – Adam and Eve – intelligent, but what if it was the other way around? What if the Forbidden Fruit took most of their humility, their intelligence, their kindness, etc. away and turn them into the discriminating, angry, and hateful humans that they are? What if the only way to turn back into their former selves was to lead a good life on Earth to cleanse their souls? The legend also says that Lilith was a demoness who fled from Heaven and was granted mercy when she showed humility and proved that her soul was still worthy of saving despite all her wrongdoings. What if, after centuries of sinning, Lilith finally found her way back to kindness? What if God forgave Lilith for her crimes? What if she gave birth to a baby after she had repented? And what if that baby is the only human soul in existence that isn’t tainted by the Forbidden Fruit or her past sins? Tallitanya of Lilith inherited her mother’s immortality and grew up at a rate much slower than an average human so she had witnessed the rise and fall of empires even though she is physically and mentally 21 years old. She was born on Earth, but she moved to Heaven when she was physically 5 years old and didn’t return until she was 18 years old. She was tasked, by God himself, to guard over the Forbidden Tree which had since been replanted on an isolated island on Earth. She loves that job, and she loves that she was given direct instructions instead of having to figure out what God’s so-called ‘mysterious plans’ for her was. Centuries went by. Tallitanya is 21 years old when the Final Judgement is nigh. As an immortal who has yet to have a real affiliation with Heaven or Hell, Tallitanya has received a personal invitation from the Antichrist who wishes to recruit Tallitanya. Heaven also sends its angel – Michael – to inform Tallitanya that as a human, her soul would also be judged by God. She was ordered to leave her post as the Forbidden Tree’s guardian so that she could get to know the other humans before she makes an actual decision about who she wants to align herself with. The second she steps out of the island, it disappears. Turns out, her message from God was faked, and so was her mission. The devil had tricked her, and as the guardian of the Forbidden Tree, she must recover the tree and the island, or humanity will perish within the year.
