《Ode to Freud》Extra Chapter 5: My Grandson
Advertisement
These peaceful days are really relaxing.
Once one gets to my age and live as much as I have lived, this kind of thing really helps the soul.
I don’t care much for what is being talked by these women, but at some moments even I will be present of mind and spirit.
I.
Enjoying my daughter breastfeeding my grandson.
Who would have guessed.
My own mother would enter a laughing streak if I told her.
But that is life. I cannot fight the course written in the stars anymore. I don’t want to. I have found happiness with it.
It never goes for too long, of course. A couple years’ maximum. Alice has stopped breastfeeding already, but I am sure she will have another son or daughter to breastfeed in no time.
Ever since she got fertile again her aura hasn’t changed a bit. I’m sure her body is still ready for conceiving.
Haha, what will be it this time?
A grandson or a granddaughter?
“Mother, can we talk?”
That’s unusual. For her to ask me to stay after the other woman have gone home.
“Sure darling. What do you need from me?”
“I… actually wanted to have this talk with John if possible.”
With that trash of a husband?
Curse the stars. Curse the course.
“Very well.”
“Thank you.”
“Not a problem darling. I guess it has something to do with Alvin?”
“Ah, y… yes.”
“I imagined so. Come, let’s sit in the kitchen while we wait for John.”
It’s a good opportunity I think.
All, this boy.
He really is a genius. And one of the big ones.
I have seen some genius in my days. Genius of all kinds.
Still, I cannot see what kind of genius is he.
Such deep mystery written on his aura… wait…
His aura… is it showing traces of cultivation?!
Yes. This is [Heaven and Earth Transcendence, Five Streaks of Light Cultivation]. And I can see traces of [Body Refining], [Soul Elevation], [Mind Deepening] and [Spiritual Advent] as well.
This is the complete secret of the [Goddess Mountain Trail]. It’s still incomplete, but it’s there.
This kid….
My peaceful days are over.
Such is the course of the stars.
Curse the course. Curse the stars.

It's still not enough. But then a relative of the first Domain, one of two that stood for Humanity, awakens from his long slumber.

Numbers Continually Going Upward
The world has very politely ended in the most webfiction way possible. Everyone is now leveling up in various things. Problems are arising. Some or all of those problems may be based around how to have a community barbeque when the nearest cow has been teleported to a few thousand miles away, along with the nearest supermarket. Join our protagoinst as he attempts to be a cool person, while everything falls apart. _____It turns out that any attempt to write a parody of the litrpg genre through overuse of the concept of leveling up inevitably fails when it turns out that *that is what the genre is based on*. Still, this was a fun little candy project of mine, and I might write more of it.

Swindle
—A Celebration of all things chess... Shounen Sports–manga Style. Anasthese is the current reigning World Champion for the Junior Chess Female Division. For years, she's wanted nothing more than to beat the Male Division Champion, Rei. These two are considered prodigies way ahead of their age; none of their peers even come close to holding a candle against them. But be that as it may, Anasthese too, cannot hold a candle to Rei... She's never beaten Rei once he's serious. Anasthese has always considered Rei the best of her generation. It's her lifelong goal to beat and surpass him. That's why, when Rei's cancer had become fatal after their 3rd year running, Anasthese took it hard. Rei will die, with her never having beaten him, not even once. Things take an unexpected turn when Rei reveals that he is far from the "invincible" player Anasthese envisions him to be. Even he has someome he could never beat, not even if his life depended on it... a fellow apprentice who studied with him under GM Amane. A guy so-called "Net". This enrages Anasthese. A person stronger than Rei should not exist. Because if he did, then what has all her efforts for the past years been for? And if this Net "does" exist, why doesn't he challenge Rei for the title? Rei tells her it's not that simple... Net's playstyle is void. It's an enigma. It's chess that should not exist, and should physically not be possible to play. It goes against all logic, and it's power is not something that can be measured in numbers. It's something that would "absolutely not work" in a professional setting. Anasthese attends Rei's funeral as a last rite before setting off for Japan, bound towards the disintegrating Futenma Shintenkan Highschool chessclub, of which there are only two members left: Mukuro and Net. She has to see it with her own eyes, a playstyle that Rei lost to... And as Anasthese stays for the long-term, various misadventures are started at Futenma High, including rebuildung the club, Anasthese's "Royal Guards" (four girls dedicated to serving Anasthese and helping challenge Rei) coming to take her back to America, and unexpected guests gracing the local Sports Meet chess scene. From a guy who can only play well everytime money's involved, to a girl who plays on a weird "Magical Girls vs Orcs" chess set, get introduced to the quirky playstyles that make chess wonderful. (Disclaimer: I am not a chess pro, I'm only 1400. Expect me to have no idea what I'm talking about at certain times...)
