Dianne, 4 years old.
"Nee, Mother."
"What is it, Little Dianne?"
"What are those lights shining in the sky?"
"Those are stars, dear."
"What about those 3 biscuit shaped object in the sky?"
"Those are our natural satellites. We believe that those are made of stone. The red one on the left is [Urm], the green one in the middle is the[Jarg] and the yellow one in the right is [Nexus]."
"Why won't they fall from the sky like the stone I threw upwards?"
"Silly child. Those stars and satellites are not controlled by our gravity. Like the [Caquis] and the clouds you see every morning, it would remain in the sky forever."
"Nee, Mother."
"Shut up, Dianne. Don't you see I'm busy?"
"Uuuuuu...."
"Ah?! Don't cry. I'm just joking. What is it?"
"*sniff* One day i'll reach those lights!"
"Before you do that, try to reach those satellites first."
"Uhm!"
"Really, what a hopeless child."
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"I want to say this again. I am [Dianne Lvonne] the 42nd Master Magicsmith. I obtained the title at the age of 14!"
Eh?! A Master Magicsmith at the age of 14? When a 16 year old Master Magicsmith was announced throughout the kingdom, it was shocking enough to make an uproar, what else if it was a 14 year old?
"Ms. [Dianne], if that's true, why didn't we heard that information to be publicized throughout the kingdom?"
One of my girl classmates asked her.
"Well~, when [Hachn] Academy announced that the 9th Master Magicsmith [Eris Valler] was a 16 year old girl, it caused an uproar. After that incident, the principal at that time decided to hide the age of an upcoming Master Magicsmith. Don't think that i'm the youngest of the Master Magicsmiths. When I became the Master Magicsmith, I was 14 years old and 14 months. The youngest was the 33rd, at the age of 14 years old and 2 months."

That age difference really matters?! Is what we thought when she said that.
"Teacher!"
Another girl rises her hand. Those girls might saw her as an ideal example of excellence.
"What is it?"
"Are you the one who created the [levitator]?"
"Oh, that one? That was a failure. I want to create something that defies gravity indefinitely, but what I created was a tool that defies gravity, but it has a limit."
"Eehh??! That was a failure?!!"
Master Magicsmiths are really out of our league.
"I made that device, but the present principal made modifications, putting some buttons to control its level of gravity."
"Teacher!"
"Persistent, aren't you? What is it?"
Ms. [Dianne] looks impatient.
That girl asked her again.
"How did you come up with those things if the only available departments before Adventurer's Department was created was LRBW and Automata department?"
"Good question~. This is my answer. It doesn't really mean that when you enter LRBW department is that all you will learn is LRBW subjects. You could also pick some of the minor subjects this school offers. When I was a first year student, I picked the "Application of Magic on Objects" or also known as Magic Encryption. Since before, all of the students of this [Hachn] Academy was taught magic. But unlike you Adventurer's department, we didn't learn offensive magic. What they taught us was support and auxiliary magic."
"Auxiliary magic?"
"Yes, auxiliary magic. Auxiliary magic, also known as Utility magic, are magics that could be used in case of emergencies. Like flight and gravity, all of us were taught things that would be helpful in case of emergency."
"My ambition is to reach those satellites you see in the sky at night. This sparked my interest in [Gravity] magic. As a student, I didn't care any of other spells, as long as I master [Gravity] magic, I'll be one step forward towards my dream. So I say this to you little children."

Then she posed like a bandit leader. she placed her left hand on her hips and points her index finger forward.
"If you want to obtain the title Master Magicsmith, pursue your dream forward! Always move forward and don't look back! Indecisiveness is the enemy of success!"
One of the students muttered.
"If Mr. [Vax] were to do that, we would have clapped. But its Ms. [Dianne], the one who introduced herself using a weird speech. We have doubts if it was really true or not."
All of us laughed. Ms. [Dianne], heard this, dropped her knees on the floor and her bottom sits on the floor.
"*Sniff* Awful! To think that my plan to act cool in front of my students by saying that line failed. *Sniff*."
After she said that, it is decided that she is a gag character.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"Now, I would formally start my [Al-chemi] class."
"Yes, teacher."
"In our [Al-chemi] class, I would teach you the secrets behind the ores, primarily [Etrium] and how to extract their potential."
"Secrets of the ores?"
"Yes, I'll ask you students, do you know why [Etrium] was only discovered 126 years ago?"
One of [Charles]' lackeys says with disinterest:
"No. But is it really a big deal to know it?"
"Yes because it was discovered one year after 2/3 of human population died from the Second Demon War. But that's not the only weird thing we could connect to [Etrium]. The location where [Etrium] was first discovered was also the place where the first battle between the Humans and Demons was fought."
"?!"
"After a decade of experimentation, the kingdom with the partnership of [Hachn] Academy discovered what [Etrium] really is."
All of us were focused as she tells us another shocking revelation.
"It was a living thing with consciousness' solidified energy~"

Dungeon Core? Nah, I Think I'll Just Get Super-Wealthy Instead
The cycle is simple enough. A Dungeon Core is born from a wayward soul. It seeks power and agency, and works to accumulate wealth to fuel its power, in turn using this power to accumulate further wealth. Inevitably, the mind is lost as desperation and ambition drive it to commit darker and darker acts. Shortly thereafter, the adventurers arrive to quell the core. This is a tale that has repeated itself countless times throughout history: all cores desire power. And yet, this core seems to have it backwards. It doesn't want to rule the world. It has no desire to enslave or conquer. No, this core doesn't want to be a warlord, a villain, or a tyrant. It wants to start a core-poration. After all, when money is power, what greater weapon is there than capitalism? Join a dungeon core that wastes an absurd amount of time and effort trying not to be evil on his journey to earn fat stacks against all odds. -This is a 'Dungeon Core' type fiction with LitRPG elements in it. The start may be fairly slow compared to the average. Expect roughly 2.5k per chapter. -I'm only a hobbyist writer. As such, there may be the occasional error and pacing may be poorly-handled. Constructive criticism is alway welcome. I'm just here to write stuff that makes my brain release the g o o d c h e m i c a l s. -I am trashy and I like monsterpeople so you can expect an awful lot of those as we get further in. Thank you for reading this far, and I hope you enjoy.

The Arcane Fanatic
"A strange thing Drives us all..." An unknown voice echoes out through seemingly darkness. "The will to live." "But what is it to truly live? It is different for everyone but for me it is magic." "To feel the power at my fingertips and see mysteries unfold. To create and manipulate magic in a way that has never been done before. To be a pioneer of magic... that is what I live for. --- In the world known as Arcane, we follow a young gentleman that goes by the name of Max Blacklock. The strange thing about Maxwell is that the soul that is currently inhabiting his body isn't the original! A stranger with no recollection of his memory or thoughts takes place in a near-dead Max and takes to the world like a fish in water. Mysteries lay in the world of arcane in spades and Max will be the one to find them with his thirst for knowledge. But will Max find the mysteries that lay in his mind, body, and soul? This book is just for fun and to practice my writing skills. My previous book met me with frustration after sitting for hours in a day trying to get words to come out. It became something that just wasn't fun to me anymore. So here I'm going to try and just have fun writing a story I would have loved to read. If you want to read what I write then be my guest. I love to critique and hope that I can get better through writing this story but I don't know if I will be able to keep a stable upload schedule until I get into the flow of things again.
