Chapter thirteen
Nishi looked around as she walked through the Kou Empire. She wasn't exactly sure where she was going, but it was obvious the palace wasn't too far away as it was much larger than every other building and a lot more expensive looking. The citizens in the area seemed content with their lives, not paying much attention to Nishi as she walked past.
"I wonder what the Ren's are really like?" Nishi thought out loud as she continued walking. It's going to be so awkward with Judar there too... She also hoped Kougyoku and Kouha hadn't told anyone else about them.

"Hey, Old Hag, she's here." Judar called to Kougyoku lazily.
"Really? How do you know, Judar-kun?" Kougyoku walked over to where Judar sat on the railing of the palace entrance, Ka Koubun at her side.
Judar shrugged, "I felt it. See, there she is." He pointed to the bottom of the stairs as Nishi walked to them, looking slightly nervous.
"Oh! She is here!" Kougyoku exclaimed happily. "Nishi!"
Nishi smiled at the princess when she got to top of the large staircase, "Hello Princess Kougyoku." She noticed Judar walked over as well, but she decided not to address him.
"Hey, Judar, is this her?" Nishi jumped at the sound of another person beside her. She looked the young man standing to her left. He had pink hair and eyes like most of the Ren family and was a bit shorter than Nishi.
"Uh..." Nishi wasn't sure what to say.
"Nishi, this is Brother Kouha. He's the third prince." Kougyoku introduced him.
"Oh!" Nishi realized this was the prince who knew of her and Judar's friendship. "Hello Prince Kouha." She bowed her head to him. Her braid swung over her shoulder and hit her in the face, causing Nishi to blush a deep red and hope no one noticed.

"Hmm...She's cute I guess." Kouha circled Nishi. "Good job, Judar."
"What?" Nishi lifted her head and turned towards Kouha who was now standing beside Judar. Good job!?
"Ah, so she has arrived. Welcome, Nishi." Nishi looked to see two more people coming out from inside the palace.
Nishi knew they had to be the first and second prince so she bowed her head to them, "Thank you for allowing me to visit...uhm..." She glanced up and looked at the men. They had the same pink hair and eyes as Kougyoku and Kouha and wore expensive clothing. She knew Sinbad had told her all of their names, but she was having a hard time remembering theirs.
"Kouen Ren. First Imperial prince. This is my brother Koumei, second Imperial Prince." Kouen introduced himself and his younger brother. "I see you've already met Prince Kouha and our magi, Judar."
Nishi lifted her head and smiled a little, "Yes, I have."
Kouen nodded, "Feel free to stay here as long as you'd like."
"Thank you." Nishi thanked him, then looked to Kougyoku to see what would happen next.
"Come on, I'll show you around the palace." Kougyoku offered, smiling.

Nishi sat in the middle of a field of flowers with Kougyoku. The princess had shown her around the palace, Judar and Kouha tagging along. She had even gotten a chance to apologize to Judar, who just shrugged it off. Now, Nishi was making flower crowns with Kougyoku and talking about anything that came to mind.
"So, I hear you've got a thing for Sinbad, huh?" Nishi teased.
"Huh?!" Kougyoku blushed. "I guess I like him..."
Nishi smiled, "Yeah? He's a lot older than you, you know."
"I don't care. He's not that old!"

Nishi chuckled and placed a flower crown she'd finished on the princesses head. "I wouldn't be surprised if he liked you back."
"R-Really?! You think Sinbad would like me?!" Kougyoku blushed more, getting excited.
"Why not? You're young and pretty. Plus, you're a princess."
Kougyoku smiled happily, her eyes wide. Once she relaxed she asked, "What about you? Do you like anyone?"
"Me? No, no...I don't like anyone." Nishi could feel her cheeks heating up despite her words.
"You sure?" A sly smile spread across Kougyoku's face.
"Hmm...Well your brothers are pretty hot." Nishi smirked.
"What?! All of them?!" Kougyoku exclaimed.
"N-No, no! I'm joking!" Nishi laughed, shaking her head. "I swear!"
"Oh!" Kougyoku laughed. "Okay."
"You mean you actually believed me?"
"No..." The princess pouted and turned her head to the side.
Nishi chuckled quietly and shook her head. This is fun...I'm glad I came...

8 463Pawns of God
Five Lines PitchJoin Mark in his fight against a God and change the game's destiny! Delve into a slow-paced story focused on the progression of the main party and the development of the world. Mark himself will be narrating his life inside the game, and to a much lesser extend outside. Guild building, economy, and strategy are the central pieces of the novel. Mark is not overpowered, he will have to build his own power through action-packed battles, trials, traumas, love, and death. Accompany him, the healer and the strategist, an agent of chaos, in the adventure of his life. Without further preamble, I will let Mark take the mic. SynopsisHi! My name is Mark. This is my story, my life as I live it day after day. I’m in my thirties, and there’s nothing I love more than playing online games. I’ve just joined the action on the newest VRMMO game, Pawns of God. An immersive experience you can play while sleeping. Of course, as a game that takes pride in its long development and technological advances, everything inside seems and feels real. Beware, this is not a game-turns-real story. I love my own world and I would detest being summoned into another one. If that ever happens, I’ll just quickly take my life and be done with it. I play with my friends, in a party of 5. We have taken several roles, but lately, I've come to love being a healer. It's my secret ambition to someday be the shotcaller. I am not overpowered. If there is any bug or exploit in the game, they are yet to be discovered. Anyhow, for a game of this scale, the company is pouring all of its resources into test servers, QA, and beta tests. I don’t expect to find any, so I’ll be playing the game just like any other person. I must say, though, I am easily distracted, as you will immediately notice once you start. I'm working on it, I promise to improve! I am no hero. Being in my 30s, my heart is too old for this shit. I wouldn’t mind being one, of course. Who hasn’t dreamt of it? Either way, I’m not doing any grand quest to save the world. Whatever the game throws to their users, I’ll be there to experience it. Most of my life, at least the interesting parts that I’ll be narrating, happen inside the game itself. Rarely, there will be some IRL (In Real Life) chapters. You’ll understand, however, that as a freelance software developer, there is not much I can entertain you with when outside the game. Did I say I love games? Well, I’m also a fan of LitRPG literature. You know, journeys of magic, relationships, personal development, items, skills, discovery… In the spirit of not overwhelming my public, I’ll condense each chapter into circa 1500 words. You might have noticed some tags over this story, let me elaborate. I like to swear. I’m not shy when it comes to cursing my enemies, friends, or even myself. When there’s blood, I tell it as I see it. And… it hurts to admit it, but I’m not a casanova. Of course, this doesn’t mean that I won’t ever find love. So, in case I do end up finding it, let’s keep my sexual options open. As for traumas, none yet, but the future is vast and unknown.
