《The World is My Playground》Chapter 1 : The Summoning
Advertisement
David - Ugh, i'm so boooored. It's only two weeks into summer vacation and there's nothing to do. I really don't wanna start on the summer homework, what were these teachers thinking, Summer work from English, Biology, History, and TOK, jesus.
As i'm saying this, my father enters my room asking me to come downstairs to the living room, apparently he wants to tell the family something important.
Father - I have great news, i just bought us all cruise tickets to the Caribbean, isn't that exciting!?
David - Holy shit, seriously, isn't that expensive for all six of us?
Father - Well one of my coworkers knows a few people that work with the cruise line and got me a real good deal so i bought them, we will head over to the port tomorrow, so you better start packing your stuff,
After my father told us that, we all immediately went to start packing our things. I'm a total nerd for tech, so i pack away my PSVita, my 3DS, my two laptops, my phone, and all the chargers that go along with them. I also pack along some clothes like some t-shirts and button up shirts, jeans, shorts, and maybe a vest or two, incase i find anyone i might wanna woo, hehe.That night, we all went to bed early since we would need to be up early to get to the port that the cruise ship was at o n time.
The next day
In the morning, i get up and get myself ready for the trip. I took a shower and brushed my teeth and then checked my hair. I guess you could say i had somewhat long hair, it was reaching around shoulder length,maybe a little more, and it was a dark brown, almost black color. As i checked myself in the mirror, i noticed how my tan was starting to fade, i really need to get some more sun, i'm Mexican for crying out loud, I'm starting to look as white as my older sister’s husband.

I brushed my hair, and put on some shorts and a t-shirt and met up with the rest of my family down stairs i. The kitchen for breakfast. We had eggs with bacon and toast with some orange juice and then we were off on to the road to make it to our cruise.
As we drove for around five hours to reach Miami, i had fallen asleep to which my little sister took advantage of and started placing small wads of paper into my nose. It wasn't until both my nostrils were somewhat full of paper that i woke up to a sneezing fit. I yelled at her for a bit till my mother started to tell me to knock it off to which i did since i didn't want her to get me with her iron grip the next time we get out of the car. My but still hurts every time i remember the last time she punished me for something bad i did.
We finally got to the cruise ship after five grueling hours of driving and checked in. Turned out the tickets my dad bought were first class, so we got some really nice looking rooms. There was a 4K curved tv, a king size bed, a master sized bathroom and and a balcony for each room. It was awesome to stand stand on the balcony when the ship finally started moving out to sea and in the direction of the Caribbean.
At sea
The weather was nice out at sea. Calm blue waves around the boat, a nice cool breeze, and the sun shining right above us to which i laid under to regain my tan. I could already see a few girls eyeing me from agar. I bet it's because of my long wavy hair, I've always been complemented by girls about my hair, and strangely my nails too. Apparently they were the type of nails girls wanted. They were strong, slim, and very shiny even though i never put anything on them, huh, weird.

After a few days, it started getting strangely chilly outside. It got to the point that i had to wear a sweater and jeans while i was out of my room. I went around looking at things. I went to the game room and played some games with some of the other kids on the ship. I went to the dining room and grabbed some food whenever i was hungry. It was pretty fun being on the ship.
When i got bored i would just out on the balcony and sit on a reclined chair with all my tech while connected to the ship's wifi. I was just playing some games when all of a sudden a storm comes out of nowhere. The storm clouds just appeared right above us and started thundering really loudly. I could feel my whole body vibrate from the sheer force of the thunder booming through the sky. As i was trying to go back into my room from the balcony, i saw an enormous wave coming straight at us, or to my perspective, AT ME! before i could even do anything i was slammed into the wall of the balcony right next to the door to enter my room and knocked out cold. As i was losing consciousness, i could have sworn that i saw the water glowing and making a swirling pattern right where i was gonna fall into. Oh well, whatever happens happens, I'll deal with whatever if i ever wake up from that hit i just took.

Manifesto
Sometimes, even the most outright affront to liberty seems to be justified under certain contexts. Or maybe I should stop reading about Stalin, I think it's affecting me.

Cheaters Always Win
Chester Everheart knew that life wasn't fair. Some were born in situations where it was almost impossible to succeed, whereas others were born with a silver spoon with everything at their disposal. A scant few were dropped into another world, filled with monsters and magic and forced to fend for themselves. The latter was a rare, somewhat ridiculous trope; but it happened to him anyway. Despite this he followed a motto that applied regardless of the dimension he was in. Playing fair is for suckers, and cheaters always win. Cheaters Always Win is a comedy-adventure that I've had churning in my head for a couple years now. I'd like to think it still has the charm that most LitRPGs have while also being unique in its own way. Every arc of the story will subsequently have a 'Level Complete' chapter that details all the stats, levels, equipment, etc. gained by the main cast of characters.
