《A Misleading Shell》The Point of View of ???
Advertisement
The POV of ???:
It was a casual day like any other.
[Operation started.]
A metallic voice sounded in my head.
[Taking control of the host.]
It said something in a language I didn't understand.
[The game is still in the preparation period. Authority not fully acquired.]
I noticed that I wasn't able to control my body anymore.
I couldn't move.
I could only have thoughts.
It's been a couple of weeks since this weird 'System' as it calls itself had taken control of me. I just turned 8 years old today, my family were celebrating my birthday. This 'System' has perfectly replaced me, it can imitate my personality, my habits and even the way I talk. Thus, no one has noticed anything out of the ordinary about me.
I felt despair and was scared at first however I'm just bored now. It's like I'm living my life normally but instead of having to move my body and do the things I need to do, someone else was doing it for me.
After some months of living with System, I learned some words from the language it was using, not many, but I could understand it better.
Today System acted weird. It was something about 'Variable'

...
[Not enough authority to execute Death sentence.]
'System' repeated this cycle over and over again over the next hours, I could feel his urgency despite his cold voice.
I was happy about it, he was finally suffering a bit. I have been taken control of for a long time. Whoever this 'Variable' is, they could be my saviour.
[The target is gaining resistance to mental attacks.]
[It is estimated to be better to stop executing commands.]
[Variable threat level is exceeding calculations.]
...
[Used too much energy; going into hibernation]
I can finally move on my own! Whoever this 'Variable' is, thank you!
Is it over?
And the answer to that question is... No.
[Main story beginning; authority fully acquired.]
No! Why again!

Arcane Societies
Secret Societies, highly influential groups of people who control the world from behind the scenes. Often, they are merely thought to be part of the wild fantasies of the most imaginative or insane people of society. Sett, a seemingly normal orphan child, shared the same thoughts. Yet, his world would be torn asunder when he found out that not only was the world controlled by these veiled organisations, but they also had access to much more than just money and influence. They were martial artists that could split the earth, magicians that could rain fire from the skies, monsters that could eat you whole, and much, much more. This is the story of Sett, an orphan who tries to live his life among the secret societies. [participant in the Royal Road Writathon challenge]

Sanctuary
A girl searching for someone. A boy who lost his memories. A man from another world. A woman trying to prove her worth. Follow along as this unlikely group of people join forces to help each other accomplish their own goals in this non-epic fantasy adventure. Fair Warning: This fiction contains many of the well-known light novel tropes, though I try to give them my own spin. If you’re tired of them by now, you might want to keep away. There are no demon lords however, nor any end-of-the-world cataclysm situation that only the MC can solve. This story is more about different people coming together and helping each other out to achieve their own goals and objectives.

Kindle Edition Unsigned Paperback Edition Amazon Author Page The Matter of Manred Continues... Since the day she was born, the Lady Eithne of Dolgallu has lived under a magical prohibition: she may not marry before the omens are deemed favorable. Now, after a harrowing journey to the most sacred place in the Five Kingdoms, the Drymyn Order, a mysterious sect of powerful priests and priestesses, have pronounced the omens favorable, and her wedding to King Eowain of Droma has been arranged. But Eithne has the right to accept—or reject—her suitor. She did not set this geas upon herself, didn't ask for the special attention of the Gods to her love-life. Yet the time for her decision has come. Eowain has proven himself loyal, brave, kind—all the things any woman might ask from a man. But there’s the way of it: this is the man, you must marry him. Is she not a free woman? Was she not guaranteed the right of choice? Eithne is frustrated by the expectation that she will simply acquiesce to her fate, that she must accept that the Gods wove some secret pattern for her life and she can do nothing to stop it. So how can she prove she has the freedom to choose if she doesn't choose, “No”? How can she know for herself that her will is truly her own if she consents?
