《Beyblade Burst: Shasa's Journey》Shards Shirosago
Advertisement
Right after Shasas and Tomokas battle, they've decided to go out for the night. They were walking through a city and wanted to hang out with each other and have a good time.
"You're pretty strong for a blader, ya know?" Tomoka said, Shasa nervously scratched the back of her head.
"Haha, thanks. But you're pretty strong too." Shasa complimented back.
"Thanks. It's pretty hard to believe that you've defeated a legendary blader." Tomoka began.
"I know, I was even surprised at first. But It was thanks to his training and believing in my partner." Shasa said and Tomoka smiled.
"Oh yeah, I don't mean to brag, but I actually battled Valt right before I battled you." Shasa mentioned and Tomokas eyes widened.
"You battled Valt?" Tomoka almost yelled out and Shasa grinned.
"Woah. So? How'd it go?" Tomoka asked, interested to see how the match had gone.
"He easily won. I mean, he's stronger than ever." Shasa said and Tomoka felt there were more meaning to those words.
"Stronger than ever?" Tomoka repeated.
"Yeah, I was on BC Sol when Valt first arrived. We were great friends and we still are now. It was just a catching up." Shasa explained.
"Really? So you were friends with the number 1 legendary blader? Sounds awesome. I'm actually great friends with Sisco too. He was on BC Sol right?" Tomoka asked.
"Yeah! I noticed you launched like him back in our battle. You look up to him a lot, huh?" Shasa grinned and made Tomoka blush.
All of a sudden, they heard a ding sound and Tomoka pulled out her phone.
"What is it?" Shasa asked.
"Oh, one of friends, Shards texted me." Tomoka said as she started typing on her phone.

"Shards? Never heard of her." Shasa said and Tomoka smiled up at her.
"She's actually a pretty strong blader. Probably stronger than me." Tomoka explained and made Shasas eyes widen a little bit in curiosity. A blader that is stronger than Tomoka?
"She just said to hurry up. You see, I was gonna hang out with Shards today but then I ran into you, haha." Tomoka said as she blushed and scratched her head and then came up with an idea.
"Hey! How about you join us?" Tomoka asked and Shasa was surprised.
"For real?" Shasa asked and Tomoka nodded and took her hand and dragged.
"H-Hey! Not so hard!" Shasa exclaimed.
Along The Streets
"Hey! Shards!" Tomoka called out, the girl, Shards, was standing by a bench by the busy streets full of cars. Tomoka was still pulling Shasa, Shasa looked ahead and spotted Shards.
She found the girl as tall as her with electric black hair and dark purple eyes that consist of a black ring around the Centre. She's wearing a black sleeveless crop shirt with spiked up like parts on her shoulders, the bottom of the crop is shaped like an upside down V with dark purple stripe lining the edge. She also wears black long tights reaching down to her ankles with a similar V shape when her tights start on her waist also with the purple stripe lining it. Her shoes look like Lui Shirosagi's classic white boots with another purple strip lining the tope. Her look is completed with a small thin black choker on her neck. He hair hair is also tied up with a hair band.
"Tomoka? What took you so long and...who's the new girl?" Shards asked or more like, hissed which made Shasa confused, with her arms crossed.

"This is Shasa Guten, she's a friend, don't worry." Tomoka introduced. Judging by the way how the girl asked, Shasa wasn't really getting good vibes from her.
Shards stared or more like glared at Shasa which made her uncomfortable.
"She's only nice to those who she thinks deserves it." Tomoka whispered, giving some info on her friend.
"So...how'd you meet her." Shards asked Tomoka.
"We accidently ran into each other, we actually had a battle, that's the reason why we were a little late." Tomoka explained, and the fact they had a battle sparked a little interest in Shards.
"And believe this, she actually defeated a legendary blader, Xander Shakadara!" Tomoka said with stars in her eyes. And that statement made Shards widen her eyes a little bit and look at Shasa.
"You defeated a legendary blader?" Shards asked and Shasa nodded. For some reason, Shards thought it was a lie, how could a random blader just defeat a legendary blader out of the blue. She didn't care at all about Xander, to be honest, she didn't care about a lot of the legendary bladers but there were a couple that interested her. But to hear that someone defeated a legendary blader, she had to battle them.
"Then prove it to me." Shards said, surprising both of the girls.
"What do you mean?" Shasa asked.
Shards then held up a beyblade.
"The names Shards Shirosago and this is Destroy Sadryn. Battle us if you're really that strong." Shards said, or more like demanded. Shasa was a bit surprised to see a sparking bey, it seemed to be in the shape of Lost Longinus but with a black and purple recolor. It also had a sparking core of Rage Longinus. But she was also a bit surprised to hear that her last name was similar to Lui Shirosagi. The dragons on Sadryn was recolored with a black color and the rest of the layer seemed to have a neon purple color on the layer.
Shasa was surprised by her demand, she had not expected to battle her right away but then she smirked at her.
"Okay then! I was told you were a blader so let's go! Cosmic Saturn will take you on!" Shasa exclaimed as she held up her bey. Shards was also a little bit surprised that she had a sparking bey but what intrigued her even more was that she swore she saw Saturn quickly spark a flew flames around it. The flames flickered a couple times, Shards was about to rub her eyes to make sure she was seeing things but she felt like it was real.
Tomoka was a bit nervous, because she knew how Shards changes during battles. But on the other hand, she was looking forward to see how her new friend will do against Shards.

Sword System Academia
2/17 NOTICE: I'm putting this on hiatus, possibly permanently. I didn't want to spam with an "update chapter", so hopefully here and in the story blurb will get enough eyeballs. There are a couple reasons for ending SSA for now. 1) I wrote the next chapter but wasn't happy with it. I've been less and less satisfied with SSA's quality the more I thought about it. Part of the reason is... 2) I am seriously thinking about trying to publish some novels to help pay the bills, since I don't have my other source of income anymore. I have never asked for anything from SSA readers, no money, not even a review or rating. SSA is written for fun to amuse myself, primarily, and I would kind of feel bad actually charging someone money for something as unserious as that. I don't think it is good enough to ask anything in return. To use an analogy from music, SSA is more like a jam session with a bunch of friends. You're just chiling and having fun playing some music. I mean, if you are Mozart or even Eminem, your jam session is good enough to sell, but for an amateur beginner like myself, haha, no. If I want to publish something, I feel like I need to go the proper route of practice and rehearsals, which might be more similar to a classical concert performance. With SSA, I work from worldbuilding notes and a loose outline, but what you are essentially getting is the first draft with lots of so-called pantsing. Pushing out a web novel like this also means it is very difficult to go back and improve things without breaking everything else downstream. I wanted to try this "jamming" approach, as it was a good way to teach me about another aspect of writing, but to move forward, I think I need to hone my "classical" techniques, which emphasize rewriting, or at least, revising outlines. 3) While I intend to try to make $$$, my actual current goal is to "get gud". I've spent a lot of time recently trying to understand the self-publishing industry, and I'm pretty sure I can make some money by using short-term strategies with my current amateur skill level. But I've seen too many authors come and go/burnout, and really, the only way that I think I can enjoy writing and still make money on a long-term basis is to become a better writer. And the next step for me, which I haven't done much before, is to spend more time on rewriting and outlines. That is pretty much antithetical to the way SSA is developing. I've always been kind of 20/80 plotting/pantsing, but I want to spend a lot more time outlining before I even start writing. SSA jam sessions don't really fit my goal anymore. If you're curious about what's next, read on... Among other regrets, I regret not finishing SSA. It's the first story I've dropped, but then again, it's the first web novel I've attempted, so I suppose that's not a surprise. I don't think traditional web novel formats suit me that well. The whole SSA story I had loosely planned (beyond a first book or major arc) is way too large as well. Big story = good for neverending webnovel with Patreons, bad for penniless and fickle writer like me. I am currently outlining a complete trilogy to another story in great detail. I want the story to end concisely, and I also want the chance to really spend a lot of time on the full outline to spot pacing problems, character issues, lost themes, and so on. I'll still share this story on RR. What I intend to do is finish book 1, flash-publish the whole thing here for a few weeks, then publish on the big Zon. Repeat for books 2 and 3. The upcoming story will be about crafting heroes. The backdrop is an isekai-like setting, where elves will summon humans to their world as heroes, but the whole hero crafting business is still in its infancy. The elven mage researchers are figuring out how to imbue heroes with power, while the heroes are trying to figure out how to use the powers that they gain. Humans are the best hero templates because they are blank and have no intrinsic magic. Or at least that what the elves thought. The human MC has his own secrets... There will be some similarities with litrpgs, but I would call it more a progression fantasy or gamelit story. For example, the stats are very low, at least initially. Say we have a stat called Str. Going from Str = 1 to Str = 2 is a huge deal. Also, going from Dex = 0 to Dex = 1 is an even bigger deal. I guess you could call it a "low-stat litrpg", haha. Also, the heroes won't be gaining stats simply by killing things or leveling up. You can't increase stats arbitrarily, either. There will be rules to how stats can increase, and how they work with each other. The elven mages will be figuring out these rules in order to craft stronger and stronger heroes. Some inspiration will be from cultivation magic systems, but there won't be overt cultivation, at least for now. A theme I really want to explore is the idea of interactions. That includes things like hero crafter vs hero, tactics vs strategy, skill synergies, racial interactions (dwarves, elves, etc), and son. Yeah, so hero crafting. I'm super excited about this project and venturing into publishing. If you want to check out the upcoming story, you can follow my RR author profile to see when it drops here. Finally... THANK YOU TO EVERYONE! I'm very sorry that SSA is stopping, but I hope at least some of you will find the next story at least as enjoyable, if not more. Thanks to all the readers who gave SSA a shot. Big hug or solid fistbump to all of you, whichever you prefer! I hope this message is not a downer but an upper, because I am psyched!! -purlcray -------------- BLURB: Talen, youngest Master of the Koroi, makes his way to the Empire's capital to salvage his clan's fate. But the bustling city has few opportunities for the traditionalist. For the old sword clans are fading. With the rise of alchemy, gold can purchase strength that ordinarily took years of training to cultivate. Sword artists, once rare and accomplished, are quickly growing in number, especially among the wealthy noble class. Even with such alchemy, though, no one has advanced to the rank of Grandmaster in countless years. Talen's true dream is to walk the path of a sword artist to the very end while fulfilling his clan duties. And then the Swordgeists return, fabled founders of all sword arts, gods who had touched the world long ago and vanished. These myths turned into reality warn of a coming threat. Alongside this warning, they issue an invitation to the Sword System Academy, a path to power beyond the mortal realm. But first, they will hold an entrance exam... Story notes:Sword System Academia blends elements of western and asian fantasy such as xianxia and litrpg. I took parts from different genres I enjoyed and twisted them into my own creation. There will be an explicit system, both of the litrpg kind and the hard(ish) magic kind, but it is embedded within an academic structure that will develop over the course of the story. This is my attempt to design a unique type of system, the System Academia.

This was ment to be the self-published 'real' book of Binary Progression; turns out there isn't much of a market for this kind of story... that and it sucked!

Unbeknownst to him, the game he found is more than just an ordinary WoW clone and after many adventures with his group, they make the terrifying discovery that after two full volumes this story becomes a god damn isekai. What’s worse, JohnWillStab, the number-one edgelord on the server is somehow ending up in positions of power despite literally being an undead rogue with evil magic tentacles! Will John’s edginess ruin the isekai? Why does the doctor have the highest kill-count in the game? Is 👑 really a valid character you could use for your username? Can the chef perform an exorcism? Why is God asking John for chicken nuggets? Really, he could just spawn them in - in fact, we saw him spawning food in before!
