《Secret Admire (ON HOLD, SORRY)》A New Begining (Chapt.3)
Advertisement
Five hours have past and I saw many buildings. At the same time different from New York, and for my opinion this is better.
Just passing by there were more business people then I thought there would be. Since we passed through, I thought that we were going to live in an another apartment, but I guess not. Another hour passed and when I woke up we stopped at a big mansion. It was not so tall but very wide, it was perfect. It was a white home and is surrounded with red roses. Right when I spotted my favorite flower, and realized that it was surrounded with nature, I can now call this my new "home".
When I went out, it was a while since I smiled in front of my parents. There was birds chirping on the tall oak trees and the way I look at it, it looks mysterious at the same time cozy.
"Sweetie", dad said.
"A few months, your mother and I realized that your wall was filled with nature paintings that you drew and vases filled with roses, so we figured while designing our new home we would try to make you feel more like a dream home." Mom said after dad said sweetie.
"Just for you darling, we also think that you would get a bit inspired while you do your sketches." Dad said while holding mom's hand.
I put my bag down and ran up to them to hug them to make them realize how thankful I am that they think of me, that they did this all for me.
When I walked in it was like a a palace from the fairy books that I used to read when I was little. There was vases filled with red roses, with some family photos. As I looked up there was a golden chandelier hanging. Not just that, but there was maids standing in front of me. They bowed and said "Welcome my lady."

I politely bowed back and said thank you. So they helped me with my bags and told me to lead them to the room I would like to stay in.
I walked up stairs and chose the last door to the right. It had silver lights hanging on the side with a switch. Also a queen sized bed with two small nightstands on the side with rose vases with a silver lamp. I kindly asked them to leave my luggage on the side. Now that I was alone I can explore more in my room.
I saw a medium sized desk that was near a big window that had a perfect view of a tree with a bird nest hanging on a branch. There was also a pin board for me to hang my art. On the right there was two doors, so I opened the left door and it was a walk in closet with the rest of my belongings. And on the right was a bright bathroom with a small window and another vases with a single rose. With all the roses, makes my day even more.
When I finished unpacking, I opened the door that was across my room. It was an art room and a library combined. Mom found me and handed me my room key and another key that was for the room that were in right now. Mom said that both of these rooms belong to me, and then peacefully left. It was bright and had many mysterious, romance, anime, and fantasy books. In the center was an art stand and a chair hanging on a some news papers. On the corner was a cabinet filled with paint, paper, towels, crafts, and empty picture frames. There was a small window that brightens the room, that you can spot some dust flowing around the room. Not just that but I found my old violin when I was just six years old.

The rest was the master room with an extra bedroom and bathroom. When I looked up was the attic, but right now I was to explore whats down stairs. I saw that the living room had one large couch and two small ones on the side with a coffee table in the middle. Also a black shimmery piano next to two large windows that had white curtains on the side. One the other room was the dining room with another gold chandelier hanging over a wide dining table. And a vase filled with white flowers, mixed with roses. Every room in the house have a big window with flowers around the room. The last room I stopped at in the house was the kitchen. It was bigger then my old bedroom. It was brighter then the rest of rooms in the house. It had two giant stoves, a coffee maker, microwave, a humongous refrigerator, and many more.
Last but not least I checked the backyard. Except seeing the oak trees and rosebushes, I spotted a pool on the left and two swings on the right. I started swinging myself for about five minutes, then realized that it was about to get dark. When I got in the maids bowed told me that it's time to eat. So I got to the dining room and saw a pile of my favorite sushi, while mom and dad were telling me to sit. We ended our prayer and started eating.
Less then five minutes it was quiet then dad asked how I felt about our new mansion. I said that it was like a dream home that I always wanted, I always dreamt of living in a the peaceful nature filled with pure blood roses. After that dad said that next week my private driver will drive me to that privet school Shin's son goes to and then showed me a picture of him. When I first saw the picture, my heart skipped a beat. I almost panicked. I don't know why I feel like this. It feels like my heart is aching. Dad told me that he's also 15 and that we're starting the same grade next week. I can't really tell how I feel. Maybe happy, nervous. I can't tell so I took the picture and kissed my mom and dad goodnight then went straight to my room.
I took a bath, dried my hair, brushed my teeth then ran up to bed. I actually feel glad that my new world starts here. The feeling I have between New York and Japan is different. I think that I put my heart in Japan then in New York because for starters I am Japanese, and secondly its just peaceful and quiet. When I turned to the right to turn off the lamp, I saw Makoto's photo. Whenever I see his face I start to blush like crazy. Damn It!!! Why do I feel like this? I'm getting all shy just by seeing this picture. I just hope that this emotion will stop until tomorrow.

8 458Ocean Attuned - A timeloop LitRPG
In the mids of industrialization, Liana, a girl of almost twelve, awakens her flow and follows her newly awakened calling, the ocean, and thus the path of the last remaining god. With the advent of industry, one's status and the accompanying skills slowly grow to be secondary as people choose more recreational skills and classes. The clear exception are flow bringers. Humans with an increased affinity towards flow and attunements are the only real remnants of the age of gods and mysticism. Terrors on the battlefield, saints in hospitals, saviours during drought, are just some examples of the wonderous abilities they display. As civilization grows less dangerous so does the stress that is often associated with the awakening of the flow reduce and only the real talents remain. Please be aware that this is a first draft at best. Tag/Genre analysis: Action: A theme that will appear in the story at some point (probably 15+ chapters in) Adventure: Yes Fantasy: Yes Magic, Beasts, and other fantastical elements are totally at home here. Tragedy: Life is not always fun. For what is fun when there are no downsides. I don't know how heavily I am going to lean into this genre. I want to but don't expect too much. Loop: Yes, though I will not divulge anything else. Just be aware that there isn't nearly as much looping as in MoL for example. Female Lead: Yes, Liana is female. Dungeon: Yes, there are dungeons. Yes, they will get explored. LitRPG: Yes, read the first chapter if you want an example. Magic: most definitely because who doesn't like calling lighting down from the heavens. (Disclaimer: No actual lightning will be called down from the heavens) Mythos: There are gods. So maybe, I don't know if that is enough to qualify? Progression: yes Slice of Life: There is plot, and the story will mostly be about that plot, but there will also be downtime because there can't always be action. The first "loop" especially the first 20-30 chapters will be heavily SoL. And afterward there will be a lot less. Profanity: The ocean (see title) includes sailors and we all know how the stereotypical sailor is. Gore: Hmmm, some but I will have it be not graphic at all.

8 318Different World with Save and Load: A Horror Story
Being strong and being weak is a form of perspective. Are you really as weak as you think you are? Do you really have the power to level mountains and rend the seas? If people tell you are god then you are god, if people tell you are nothing then you are nothing. But who actually sees the whole picture? A not-so-good man (evil) managed to get transported to a not-so-real world (game-like) by a not-so-caring god (lazy). The world uses the all-so-famous “stats”, but he has no access to the so-called “system”. At least he managed to get a cheat from the lazy god, even if it took all his potential. What will a greedy villain with the ability to reset his progress do in a world that is more fake then real with a godlike hero, and a non-caring god?
