《Idealism》The Groundwork (1)
Advertisement
Joseph took out his notebook and wrote down a list of things to do.
Then he sat and stared out the window and thought. "The Presidential seat cannot allow for a mere ounce of incompetence, for due to its vastness and influence, even a minor mistake can lead to far-reaching and unforseen consequences."
"What then, when the President isn't feeling up to it? What if he woke from the wrong side of the bed? What if he's got a fever?" He tapped at the side of the chair and wondered. "The easiest method to do something is to do it as correct as possible and see where it faltered, then fix the issues of the falter and start again."
"Yet the consequences of the falter could be far-reaching and unforseen. Still, that does not mean we should be paralyzed by indecision. We have to do something, get it wrong, then in as few tries as possible, get it right."
"The most important thing," he surmised, "is learning from the mistakes. Learning from History."
He took in a deep breath. "No day must be wasted. No day will be wasted. I will do something everyday." Then, he looked to his notebook, where lines of ink circled:
Good Times make Bad Men.
Bad Men make Bad Times.
Bad Times make Good Men.
Good Men make Good Times.
And he mourned that there will come a Bad Time once more. Then, he shook himself from that paralysis, and ventured forward.

The End of Disappointment
What happens when the hero's journey ends with disappointment instead of happily ever after? Ghost. Butcher. Murderer. Some men attract names like flies, and Ryu Ishida unfortunately finds himself among their number. Once the son of a noble house, he knows firsthand what the quest for power in the world of the Rings can do to a man’s mind, yet he can only continue down the bloody path he started long ago, hoping that at its finish, he’ll find the end to his disappointment. Four hundred years after a portion of humanity was ripped from Earth and thrust into a world of magic, monsters, and swords, whatever cruel gods rule the Rings are stirring once more, and with them comes the chaos of progress. Monsters roam the land. Corruption breeds unchecked. Murderers slay their way to the heights of power. Ryu’s life could only be described as disappointing. Updates: 2-3 times a week. *Author Note: This story does not continue with the paint by the numbers Class LitRPG system for long, so while it technically is LitRPG, it is definitely on the less traditional side (or so I hope). Also, the cover art isn't mine.
