+-First sight-+
Side Takoshi
Another day began and I woke up early 6am sharp to my surprise when I opened up my bed room door I saw Imouto and Hinari has just woken up looking a bit tired in their eyes.
I told them with full of energy “Goodmorning you guys!”
Hinari while yawning “G-[yawwwwn]Good morning Takoshi”
Imouto rubbed her eyes “Up early? Energetic as always” [rubs her eyes]
“You guys seems so tired stayed up late?” I questioned them both
Hinari responded “W-whaa no we didn’t it’s just so tired to wake up early in the morning”
“Now that you talked about it Hinari I do felt my eyes are getting heavy” I slapped my face in order for me to not fall asleep, suddenly we all heard the kitchen door opened it was Hitari,
[with a bright smile]”Good morning you guys! Go take a shower breakfast is almost ready!”
I asked Hitari “What time did you wake up sis?”
“Huh? I woke up at 5 anyway go get a shower as I said breakfast is almost ready”
[All three]“Yeah” We all took a shower wore our school uniforms and ate breakfast together, we all took off after eating and on our way to school. I asked Hinari and Imouto a question while we are walking down the road “Hey while you both are in school in this years did you both tell your classmates about me?”
“Yeah why, are you embarrassed?” Hinari responded
“Can’t say I did not, everyone was looking at me yesterday.”
“So? It’s not like they might like you or anything.”
“And if they did?” I told them and Imouto suddenly glared at me with sharp red eyes,
“I will rip them to pieces” Imouto said while tearing a small paper
“I will knock you out before that!” We arrived at our school and started our first lesson of class, I was spacing out the window not knowing the teacher was calling me until she threw a chalk at me.
”hmm? Why is this chalk here?”
“TAKOSHI!” The teacher yelled and I stood up and responded the teacher “Uh yes teacher!”
“I called you 10 times! Are you deaf?”
I answered honestly or to the teacher though it might be rude “Teacher if I was I wouldn’t respond when you called” All of the students laughed at the teacher, the teacher then shushed all of the students and told me to answer a problem “Alright just answer this equation, you didn’t pay attention when I am teaching so I think you might not know how to answer it”I looked over at the board and the equation that the teacher prepared looked easy “Okay this equation is easy” I answer the equation in no time leaving the teacher shocked and other students amazed,
Side Jia Cheng
I told Paiz who sat near me, “Just as the girls told us, he is smart”
“Yeah it’s a bit unbelievable”
“Okay take your seat Takoshi and this student is how you solve this equation, make sure you write that down.” all of the students answered “Yes Teacher!”
Side Takoshi
It is Lunch break period and my sisters are eating lunch together with their friends while I eat my lunch with my friends. Paiz saw my lunch and asked me “Wow nice food, did your mother made it for you?”

“No it was my big sister”
“I have a big sister too and she really is a great cook” Cheng then while eating talked to me,
“By the way after this wanna go have a short run? Takoshi you know parkour right?”
“Yeah I always watch videos of people doing it in Utube”
“Then you must know how to do it right?” I practiced a lot martial arts techniques at the temple but at home I usually watched Parkour videos and practiced doing them “I practiced a lot at my home so kinda”
“Well let’s do it later then what do you say?”
“S-sure but how about you two?” I asked at Paiz and Saher hoping that they would come,
“Me and Saher have class duties today so I can’t” Paiz told me with Saher,
“We will watch you sometime but for today we are busy”
“Okay” We finished our lunch and on a free period Cheng brought me to a back alley at a building
nearby school,
“This is where we will do it”
“Are you sure we can make it in time for class?”
“Don’t worry we will but first I got to say a secret to you but keep it okay? Only Paiz and Saher knew this” I was curious when Cheng told me about it,
“What is it?”
“Umm it might be a little *Shocking* so stay alerted” Shocking? I didn’t know what will happen so I am fully prepared for it,
“Show me”
“Alright here it goes” Cheng showed me a bright light and electricity appeared around his body and ran as fast as lighting up to the school hill and went back to the alley in a moment the electricity he left on track gave me a bit of a shock that doesn’t hurt that much.
I was amazed witnessing it and I am excited because there is the first time I saw a person with supernatural ability “Whoa you have a special ability!”
“Yeah...i kept it a secret from my parents and others except you,Saher and Paiz. I have the ability to run as fast as lighting up to 30,000,000 watts and create lightning powers, my nickname I like to have for this is the stealth speedster sounds good right?”
“Great nickname! But hehe well the truth is I have a secret too” I also wanted to show Cheng my special ability that I got from training,
“What is it? Is it possible you have it?”
“Heh you never know when we race”
“Alright bring it! The finish is way over there at the fountain if you can see from here” Cheng readying his position and powered up his feet with electricity surrounding him
“Don’t go easy on me!”
We both started the race and jumped,climb through walls, Jia Cheng was using its lightning speed to run to the other obstacle luckily I caught up to him in no effort, we both continue parkour our way to the finish line, While running I was equally on the same speed as Cheng “Hey we are almost at the finish line”
“Yeah I can see it lets go at full speed!” Cheng was using its Lightning speed to reach it but instead I used my full speed and reached it first.
I stopped at the finish line near the fountain and sat there “Some race huh?”
“Yeah you do have a special ability! You didn’t even break a sweat! We did some good parkour there I really wish to capture that moment” I saw Cheng who is sweating and was catching a breathing even though he used his ability

“How are you sweating?”
“Sometimes it can wear out and made me a bit slow so yeah”
“Ah I see-“ A explosion was heard near us and we both saw crowded people running away passing both of us
“What is with this crowd?! And what sets off that explosion?!”
“I didn’t really know about this but maybe that’s the cause!” I looked up at the building Cheng pointed, a giant Spider was standing on the top of the building!
{Monster:Tar-Bot-Tula Height: 35 Meter Age: ??}
Feat: Tar-Bot-Tula is an creation created by the mad scientist Howa, a male scientist who gone mad. Tar-Bot-Tula can fire lasers and uses a sticklike spider web to capture its prey and stick them into its back. Humans is its resources so the web will slowly pull the captured citizens into a shredding hole on the back of the Tar-Bot-Tula to give it more power and energy. it can also shoot out its maxed Energy beam that can incinerate anything within seconds}
A Mad Scientist was standing on the top of the building with the spider “Hahahaha! Splendid work my creation! Now go crush that tiny beings!” The Spider jumped down and releases webs at people capturing them putting them at its back,
The Spider screeches its voice paralyzing every people in his way crushing cars and destroying buildings “RAWRRRRR!!!!”
Then an idea got into my mind and asked Cheng “Hey I want to see how can you handle-“ Before I looked over at Cheng, Cheng was already running at the spider with massive electricity behind him Cheng then shouted “Lighting Bullet!” and punched repeatedly at the spider with electricity on high power but his powers barely have any effect on it.
Mad Scientist saw Cheng on ground punching and kicking his creation “What is this I am seeing? Hahahahaha!!!!! My creation cannot be defeated by that punches of yours weakling he is immune to anything I perfected this creation after long crushing years! there is no way you can defeat him!”
“How about this?! Thunder kick!” Cheng charges in with a kick that filled with tremendous lightning output and it hit the spider,
“How about that?” As smokes are clearing Cheng saw the spider didn’t take any damage at all the spider was growling at Cheng
“Damn that kick didn’t affect it at all?!” the Spider knocked Cheng over and he crashed into a building the spider fires energy beams at Cheng but I took him and ran away before he was hit by the energy beams.
“Dude that was awesome! But now it is my turn to show you my power okay stay here”
“Alright, don’t hurt yourself”
[Showed a thumbs up]” Don’t worry that spider will be as good as destroyed” I walked over the spider and shouted at the mad scientist
“HEY!” I yelled as loud as I can to get his attention,
“Huh? Another weakling. WHAT DO YOU WANT PEASENT!”
“IF YOU DON’T TURN OFF THIS CREATION OF YOURS ITS GONNA GO FROM AMAZING TO A PILE OF RUBBISH!”
“YOU THINK YOU CAN DEFEAT THIS CREATION OF MINE?! THEN YOU MUST HAVE A DEATH WISH! THIS CREATION IS ARMORED WITH TITANIUM AND ITS ENERGY ARE SOLAR GIVEN FROM THE SUN CREATING HIGH POWER ENERGY THAT CAN DESTROY HALF THE SEA!”
“I don’t have time for this I’m going to be late for my class and it’s a burden that it always ends on 6pm”
“CRUSH HIM TAR-BOT-TULA!”
The spider releases its energy he was collecting from the sun and blasted it at top of me the energy beam hit right on top of me but…it didn’t do any damage at me at all. I was a bit disappointed afterwards “Hey watched it you almost made me bald” I survived the solar energy while covering my hair then the scientist is in shocked,
“I’m-Impossible! That Solar energy should have disintegrated him to ashes! Tar-Bot-Tula CRUSH HIM!!!!!!”
Before it does any move, I took the captured hostages and brought them to a safe place nearby, I returned and punched the Spider in its head which made him flew and crashes down to the ground near a tower the spider was malfunctioning making it releasing its energy beams everywhere destroying buildings and roads everywhere I jumped towards above the spider.
“On a scale of 1 to 10 how crazy are you to destroy humanity? My house is in this neighborhood, now GET LOST!” I knocked down the spider with a punch resulting the spider to explode into pieces.
“NO! My greatest creation! I spent years building that and it just been defeated just by a kid?!”
I jumped on the building that scientist was on “Yo by the way how did you even climb on this top of the building? There are no stairs nor ladders!”
“W-what are you?” The Scientist backed away from me and I answered that question with ease
“You’re a scientist right? I have heart and can move like you but not a psycho who wants to destroy humanity you will have a great time in prison to think about this”
I took him down and tied him up in front of the crashed spider’s head with a sign *Take me to prison I’m madly in love with that place* the police took him in not because of the sign the scientist even beg telling them to took him in. I walked over to Cheng to see if he is okay.
“Hey Cheng are you alright?”
“Eh?..yeah I’m fine and that was awesome when you beat down that thing!”
“Thanks, that robot didn’t did any damage at all kinda bored with it”
“Wow you must be really strong” I didn’t want Cheng to feel he is weak “Hey don’t say that you did great on using your power on that thing it was so cool!”
Cheng tried to stood up on his feet but he fell down cause of his legs “Augh..”
“Don’t force yourself, I will take you back to our class”
“Huh? but what about our mess we looked like we were beaten up”
“That is true but I have the perfect excuse don’t you worry about it” I carried Cheng back to the school where the teacher is waiting for us at the class. A Female teacher was taking our period “Where are you both?! Why are you-ah! Did something happen to you both?!”
“We played in the dirt…”
“Go to the nurse now!!”

Small Chests Are Fine Too
It is an undeniable fact that good things come in small packages. More often than not, it is necessary to trim the fat in order to bring what really matters to the forefront. Having extra bulk may seem like a good idea, but in reality it is merely a crutch that will one day become a hindrance, as it is no substitute for personality nor ability. Indeed, often times it is the small things in life that brighten up our daily lives and constantly remind us exactly why we do the things we do. However, it is important to keep an open mind, for while bigger is not always better, there are also times when it is. This holds especially true when it comes to hopes and dreams, which have been known to require a suitably large container from time to time. And while dreaming big could potentially lead to massive dissapointment, one will never truly reach fulfilment if they think too small. A truth that one small woman with meager aspirations is about to find out. DISCLAIMER: This is a spin-off/side story of my main series, Everybody Loves Large Chests, which is also mandatory reading to understand this one. It runs parallel to the main plot, branching off from the chapter titled Upheaval 2, so there will be spoilers for anyone who hasn't reached that point.

New Paris [a Modern-day LitRPG]
New Paris [OR] I reincarnated into the world of my favorite wuxia novel as an S ranker with unbalanced skills. [Volume 1] - Completed I was one of those people who only stood out in a crowd when their name was called. Then, I died. But instead of heaven, hell, or anything else, I found myself in the body of a young woman whom I did not recognise at first. You see, I had this novel I was obsessed with. The novel was a fairly popular wuxia that got a few sequels, and a handful of spinoffs. One of these spinoffs took place in Paris, where the main cast fought against a multi-millionaire villain. When I woke up after dying, I eventually realised that I was now the third daughter of this multi-millionaire end-game boss in a spin-off of a sequel of my favourite novel. Does this make any sense to you? Because it doesn't to me. But I guess I might as well make the most of it now. Just gotta stay away from some of the more unstable main characters and cut all ties with my 'family' to avoid certain death. [Volume 2] - Currently Airing It had not been a good idea to interfere with the characters of the original novel. Had I known it was going to cause a butterfly effect, I would have stayed in my lane and minded my business. Although, between the suspicious attacks I seem to constantly find myself in the center of, and my 'family' who is the living definition of the expression 'rich pricks', I’m not entirely sure my current predicament would have been avoidable. But maybe it isn't to be avoided; maybe I should embrace this opportunity that has been given to me and become the hero of this story? At least it's certain that I can't do worse than the original protagonist in terms of moral ambiguity; with immortality already in my pocket, and no other useful skills to account for. However, if I were to follow this path, I would have a lot to lose, including an upcoming promotion and my growing relationship with my crush. With power, glory and whatever else on one side, and my wellbeing and happiness on the other, even in this magical wuxia world, the choice is easy to make. CW: graphic descriptions of violence, swearing, implied child abuse, mention and graphic description of suicide
