*WOOOSH*WOOOSH*BOOM*BOOM*
'Hmm?'
*WOOOSH*WOOOSH*BOOM*BOOM*
"**BZZT*..." a voice calls out.
'What?'
"*BZZT*! Stop f*cking falling asleep and help me!" the voice roared
*Thwak*BANG*
A hard object moves like the wind and hit like a waterfall on my head.
'OW!!!! WHAT THE!?'
Holding my head, i could not help but to think, 'Why does this feel familiar?'
I open my eyes to see an angry old man staring down at me. His entire body is enshroud in a layer of darkness so i couldn't make out his shape clearly but he was clearly holding a stick pointing at me!
He turns around to get something behind him
"Hurry up and help me boy!" He shouted. *BOOM* He slams a stack of three crates right in front of me with a loud bang. "These have to be done by noon. If we could make them on time, then we don't have to worry about money problems for the month!"
"Eh? What am I suppose to make?" I ask the old man.
"Fireworks! What else are we suppose to make? Don't tell me that after you learn how to make fireworks that you no longer have interest!" the old man frowned.
"Of course not! But I-"
"Good! Then hurry up and make two hundred of them just like I taught you!" he walks away humming a merry tune.
*Open*Creak*Shut*
He walks out the front door and shut it tightly.
I really didn't know how to make fireworks. I've only read books on how to make them but never put it to practice.
"Arg... Don't blame me if i mess old man" I grumble as i separate and open each box.
I look back at hands to see that it looks a lot smaller and I was wearing toddler's clothing.

Just then, my vision turned white. When the whiteness cleared up, i saw a bunch of spheres covered in paper. I look to see my hand still moving as another voice in my head rang.
~ Make the container’s shape using desired materials which can range from **** to **** but this time it will be paper. Put the black powder in separate container. Make the stars….~
Is this my voice? How is it that i am able to do this? Why am i able to make fireworks? Also, how am i able to assemble it so fast?
A few minutes later, i could hear some sounds.
*Tap*Tap*Tap*
The foots steps could be heard as a figure entered the area I was in.
"Ah good! You're almost done! I knew you were talented! Ah ha ha ha" It was the old man. The old man was clearly proud that he taught me how to make fireworks. So it seems like he wasn't lying about the part on how to make fireworks then. But what i don't get is, if i knew how to make fireworks, why don't i know how to make fireworks before?
"I'm a little tired *BZZT* can I sleep for a bit now?" i said. But it really didn't feel like me.
"HA HA HA! Go right ahead. I'll deliver these then boy. After all, you've earned your rest." he grin widely .
"Mmmh Okay! Night!" and at that moment, I stretch out my arms and fell right to sleep. I could still hear his voice despite being asleep.
"Cute kid. Now it won't be a waste giving you the *BZZT *BZZT*....." He lay his hand on my head and i gently rubs it for a few moments and then walks away carrying the recently done fireworks in his hands and out the door.

Limits
Have you ever considered, what is a Limit? Well, I have. I’ve seen people who were as strong, as wild animals. Those that were faster than the wind. Some that shined with intellect. Yet, what are the Limits of mankind’s strength, or intelligence? No one seems to know. We develop more and more, seemingly without an end. What if, someone was the smartest in the world? Would that suggest the Limit? What if, someone was the strongest in the world? Would that be the Limit? Would that make that someone, more than a Human? These are just questions, but what if I saw people reach their Limits? What if I know what happens, when you break the Limits? What if I were to tell you about it, would you believe me? (This novel is no longer published on royal road. If you wish to read more than 1st volume, head to webnovel. That is all)
8 90It That Laments
The time waits for no man, so is the case for Selv, who had lost everything. In the stagnant world where everything is standing still, a change occurred. Everything begins when she haunted him.

What will he, who was at the center of everything, do when it pushed him from the back line to the center again?
8 155Manaseared
Adventuring is for losers. Only the absolutely impoverished or the megalomaniacally mad would stoop to graverobbing and dungeon-delving to put food on their tables. As a career it is dangerous, unreliable, illegal, and infinitely unpleasant. Most who choose this life have no other options. They're the seventh sons of seventh sons, the disowned, bastards, impoverished and desperate, and nearly always young. And they are, without fail, losers. Eris is an adventurer. Eris is a loser. Like most of her make she's a teenage runaway with no other options. Unlike her company, she isn't fodder for the meatgrinder. She's beautiful, brilliant, and a talented magician; she's also vain, callous, selfish, and proud. This is her story, as she grows into adulthood, masters her abilities, and learns to care about more than just herself. Manaseared is an episodic fantasy adventure serial. It's also a pastiche of early D&D and RPGs in general, and an attempt to explore at what it might really mean to be a first level adventurer.
