《The Inventor of Magic》8: A Step Outside (Very short chapter)
Advertisement
A very short chapter, even considering the rest of my chapters. I was very busy andwasn't going to write anything originally. There probably won't be another chapter this short again. I appreciate any feedback and ideas, enjoy! ^0^
Miss Crow lead us two outside and closed the door behind us.
"Calm down.", Miss Crow said to an obviously stressed Lucy.
"Nothing bad has happened, and nothing bad is going to happen. There is just a small issue which we must solve so I can inform the headmaster.",
"What's the issue.", Lucy responded readily.
"Well it seems that Zach here has beaten you're magic proficiency test score.", Miss Crow said bluntly as she had already gained control after her sudden surprise from earlier.
"What! How is that possible!", shouted Lucy, not in anger but purely in surprise. Afterall she herself should have been used to controlling mana the most out of all the new first years, in the exam itself she had put her full concentration in, to the extent of fainting from exhaustion.
Ignoring Lucy, Miss Crow continued. "As you know at Silyan the first year representative is the one who scores highest in the proficiency test, so...",
"I understand.", Lucy mumbled to herself sadly.
"Ummm, I don't want to be the representative.", I plainly said.
""What?"",
"Afterall, Lucy delivered such a wonderful speech. It would be a waste to make me the representative now.", and it's way too much effort on my part.
"Is this fine with you?", Miss Crow confirmed.
"Yes.",
"Okay then. By the way Zach here is your timetable, it seems it was filled in by the headmaster.",
Miss Crow passed me the piece of paper from before.
Filled in by David? Let's see here. Our Class was meant to have a practical lesson later right?...

...
What is this? Here it says 3rd year practice... Ugh, this is just going to be even more effort. What about the theoretical lessons? 1st year. At least that's fine
"Right get back to your seats.", Miss Crow finished.

>>>Lucy POV
What was that all about!? How was my test score beaten by that boy. Zach? I fainted getting a time of 2 minutes 26. How could he have beaten that? I must ask him as soon as possible. She glanced towards Zach with determination in her eyes.

As soon as our workload decreases, I will return. Thanks for reading! 💙] No one ever knows the whole story. Nestled deep in the forests of the Pacific Northwest, something is emerging. Kept in absolute secrecy, it seeps into a fading town, quietly shared from person to person. For Alden Bensen, a directionless high school graduate, this discovery could mean an escape from his empty existence. To Rachel DuValle, perpetually underestimated and dismissed by the world, magic represents a chance to become something much greater than herself. In the face of an unsuspecting world, their decisions shape the growth of a budding society discovering untold power. This potent force offers anyone the power to change humanity forever—or send it cascading into swift and total annihilation. Want this story in smaller bites? Click here!

8 204Goddess of Computation
Doing a coding assignment last minute, Ada Newth, a computer science student, fell asleep and woke up in a different world where she was informed by the System that she was randomly selected from an infinite number of universes to be a Goddess of Computation.The trouble is that she's barely passing her first class and now she's meant to be a Goddess? Worse, she can't understand why she's needed in this world where the technology level is about equivalent to that of Earth's Middle Ages. Clearly, most people can barely read or count and even the other gods are of no help. In fact, most of them are rather dangerous idiots. If she can't convince them to help her change the status quo, she'll just have to gather her allies and followers and make some major changes to the system. 21 NOV 2020:I may update all the systemshelper interface to match better with a programming language already out there. I'm thinking either C++ or Python. 20 SEP 2020: I update at least once a week - typically on the weekend. When I have more time, I'll update more. Also, note that I added a few more Tags that I thought was relevant.

"People think being transported into another world is fun. But it's fucking not." "You think it's all saving the world, mythical treasures, and getting laid?" He yelled, "Life'll bash you on the head and stick it's dick up your ass!!!" "You see that horse over there?!" He pointed at the horse, "You might think it's harmless, but what if it's actually a monster pretending to be a horse?!? What if that tree over there is a trap?! What are you gonna do if the water you're standing in right now isn't water?!" "So shut the fuck up and eat that fucking food!" Word Length = 2000-2500 / Chapter (Sometimes it'll be higher) Please leave a review if you enjoyed it (or not), so that I may grow and be prosperous!

8 165Lynn's story
An omegas curse is that they would never have a mate. They are the weakest wolf in the pack so they are usually not respected either. Some omegas are born very weak even though it's rare. I, Lynn, was an example of a rare very weak omega. Abandoned as a child by my parents, I was taken in by the Alpha of my pack. Unfortunately, by the age of 3, the Alpha was told I was an omega. Once the Alpha had heard that I was kicked out of the castle. Now I live in a crumbled apartment building on the outskirts of the city. I spend my time on the streets, trying to hide from being beaten and raped by the pack. But little did I know, my luck was about to change for the better and the worse. A visiting fox clan from England was about to change my life. I was going to meet the fox kings brothers and things would change. My normal life would turn upside down within 3 days. I would learn information that I wish I hadn't and I would learn what telling the truth does to someone.
