《A Peaceful World》Prologue - Obtaining peace
Advertisement
Eden’s school life is always busy. During school all the class projects are always pushed onto him but there is no rest for him at home either. His two older sisters leave him to do all the chores as his parents work overseas and put the oldest in charge. Even when he gets time to himself he still can’t relax from all the racket and noise his sisters make and to only leave a mess afterwards that he has to deal with.
But this all changes today, its summer vacation and his parents are sending 3 capsules for the game they helped develop. One for him and 2 for his older sisters. While his sisters are in the game Eden can finally relax and enjoy the silence he never had as this game isn’t just an ordinary game but a virtual reality game. The first of its kind and supplies the body with nutrients and exercise while playing to increase the game time as well as a function to prevent interruptions which can be turned toggled at will.
Ding-dong
“Here it is!” Eden shouted running towards the door. He open the door such enthusiasm that the delivery man almost fell from the shock
“Owa-ah, Mr Shaul?”
“Yep, that’s me”
“Then please sign here” Eden signed the documents and handed them back to the delivery man.
“Hold on a moment, I’ll bring them up” the delivery man said as he walked to his van.
After the capsules were brought in they set them up and ‘they’ means Eden sets them up as his two sisters watch and complain he is too slow.
“Hurry up Eden, I want to play the game”
“Yeah, you’re so bad at this”
‘If I’m so bad at this then do it your bloody selves’
“Almost done” proclaimed Eden as he fiddled with the machines. After ten minutes of fiddling he finally set up the machines.

“I’m finished” said Eden as he looked proudly at his work.
“Finally”
“About time” complained Eden’s sisters as they climb into the capsules and power it up.
“Are they in?” said Eden as he cautiously walks over to the capsules. He looks at the machine and taps on it
“hello?” Eden looks at the capsule for a bit with a big smile on his face
“he, hehehehe, they in, I’m free, what should I do first? Should I watch TV or should I just enjoy the peace?” Eden says while frolicking around the house. In the end he decide to just relax and enjoy the silence.
Sadly the silence only lasted half an hour as he started to hear familiar voices. In a panic from his peace being broken he ran over to the capsules only to see his sisters out with annoyed expression on their faces.
“Why are you out already?!”
“Listen to this Eden, when we started the game we were completely naked!”
“And that’s not all, there was absolutely nothing, no town, no swords, no magic, nothing!”
“So you’re not gonna be playing the game anymore?”
“Nah, who wants to play a game naked?”
“If I wanted to be in the wilderness then I would go camping, that would be more fun”
Eden is shocked, he doesn’t know what to do, and his plans are ruined now. Without his sister in the game then his peace would be gone, only if he could think of a way to get his sisters back in the game
“It can’t be that bad, mom and dad designed it after all, why don’t you give another try?”
“”no”” they both simultaneously answered. There was nothing Eden could do, his peace is gone, his whole summer is ruined, but then he had a thought
‘If they’re outside the game then I’ll go inside the game’

Breakout: What Did I Get Myself Into?
The world is normal, and I mean completely run of the mill. People do boring things all the time, like controlling wind, moving at mach speeds and becoming able to demolish a building in one punch after eating. What...that's not normal to you? This is a world where the abnormal happens every day, thanks to super powered mutants called "Pathos". Enter: Capital City: An infrastructure with constructed on the Pacific Ocean off the coast of Japan, the basis for a school system of which the goal was to educate the Pathos on controlling their power in a safe place while also protecting those without power from being harmed. If you graduate, you could even rule the City one day! ...Or you could just take advantage of the free student housing and perfect the art of being a shut-in... Join Reito Usodachi, a lax and jaded, but surprisingly strong 15 year old boy who's in way over his head, on his adventures in Capital City... The only problem is, he may falter a bit when he gets a grasp of how weird the people in the City actually are. Even though he's read his fair share of media and the like, no amount of reading Manga or playing games could've prepared him for this. Amateur writer here! Trying my best on my first Original English Light Novel! (On a short hiatus!)

Stories Of Indlu
“… to grow, for opportunity, for adventure, to be free. Join the colony ship Nao Vittoria. Be the first to live amongst the stars.” It was obvious from the literature that the NextStar corporation wanted the young, the adventurous and the brilliant. So why were the super rich fighting over seats? Why were AI’s trying to stow away? Did this signify a premature end to human/AI civilisation? Why had some questions directed to NextStar been aggressively sidelined? Why did the colonist inflight entertainment trial produce fatalities? In fact, why colonists at all? Those and many other questions, however, boiled down to a single central question. Why was the world’s most advanced AI dumped with a hundred year babysitting job for 50 million people speeding towards an uninhabitable planet? It made such little sense. The only sure way to get answers, catch a ride on the Nao Vittoria and play the inflight entertainment game, Pax Domini. I joined, and this is my story. Well, I feature. OK, I’m more of a spectator. Actually, I’m completely irrelevant I was just there. I’m only the storyteller. But what a story to tell. --------- Hi All, Content will be published weekly usually Saturday and typical posts will be 25oo to 4ooo words per post. Though for some reason the Royal Road word count does not include the content of tables so some posts may not appear to meet this criteria. Currently I have written sufficient unedited content to keep this schedule for the next 12 months (half way through the first story arc). My current productivity would indicate that I can maintain this schedule for well into the second story arch. This also allows for the additional content that will be posed exclusively on Patreon (https://www.patreon.com/StoriesOfIndlu). This additional content follows minor characters, peripheral events, maps and other content that does not take away from the main story. I would love to accelerate the post schedule but to meet this I need the assistance of more beta readers than I currently have. So please let me know if you are interested. - Andy ©2022 Andy Leauter.
