《Kansas Kids (Editing)》Chapter 4
Advertisement
The rest of the day went by fast. Sam, Colby and Kat were basically in all of my classes and now Kat and I are walking to my place to work on a little start of term project for Science.
"I noticed Colby staring at you non-stop today. what do you think of that?" Kat says nudging my side.
"And I noticed Sam staring at you all throughout class. What do you think about that?" I mock.
I turn to look at Kat and see pink covering her cheeks.
"really?" Kat asks, trying to look at anything but me.
"why do you want to know?" I tease.
"I'll tell you why if you tell me what I want to know." Kat says, a sudden shift in her mood.
"what do you want to know." I say, already knowing what she wants to know.
"Do you or do you not, find Colby Brock attractive?" Kat says clearing her voice and speaking in a terrible British accent, making us both laugh.
"I do." I say under my breath, hoping she wouldn't her it. but alas, she did.
"I KNEW IT!" Kat screams out, earning us weirded out looks from passer byers.
"Oh, shut up, will you!" I say, hitting Katrina's arm.
"ow, fine." Kat says rolling her eyes, the grin still evident on her face.
"now you have to tell me what I want to know." I say.
I hear a heavy sigh come from Kat.
"fine. I do." Kat says under her breath.
We both leave the subject behind as we continue our way to my house. I live in a relatively big house which means whenever I bring someone new to my house they always think I'm rich or something, but we're not its just the size of the house. as I'm digging through my bag for the key I can see Kat looking around at the front of my house.

"damn, nice house. you rich or something?"
"Nah, wasn't that expensive."
"yeah cause you're rich."
I stifle a laugh before finding the key, unlock the door and head inside towards the kitchen.
"hey mum I brought over a new friend." I say, seeing my mum in the kitchen just on her phone.
"already making new friends. you must be popular." My mum jokes.
I roll my eyes at my mums statement before walking over to my pantry and grabbing a few snacks.
"haha mom, very funny." I say sarcastically before leaving the kitchen and leading Kat up to my room.
(room)
I notice that my curtains have been opened. I don't usually like to have my curtains open but my mum always comes in and opens them while I'm at school. "You need light in your room. you're no vampire." my mum usually says.
"I don't usually have my curtains open but whatever." I say as I throw my bag onto my chair and slump down onto my bed.
"Wow, hella awesome. maybe a bit bright, but suits you." Kat says with a slight laugh as she places her bag on the floor next to the door.
"people usually say it's too crowded with stuff and whatnot." I explain as Kat sits on the be next to me.
"It's not exactly for me, but it totally suits you, which is a good thing." Kat says, making us both laugh.
I get up from my bed and sit at my desk, turning on my pc to start this easy little project as Kat pulls over a little stool to sit next to me. for the remainder of the time she was here, we finished the project and then watched a movie before Kat got a text from her mum.

"my mum texted and said I have to go home." Kat says sadly as she gets up.
I get up with her and walk her out.
"ok, see you tomorrow." I say after hugging Kat.
"yeah, bye." Kat said before turning around and leaving.
Once Kat left I went back to my room, falling on my bed. as soon as my head hits the bed, my phone dings. I turn over my phone and look at the lock screen.

The Depths of Magic
Synopsis It's the year 2052 and the release of the new next-generation full-dive VRMMO game called The Depths of Magic is hitting the world by storm. The game's technology will surpass all other games before it and shock the masses. Hector who goes by the name Locke inside the game is an experienced player of the genre. He is looking to continue his goal of enjoying gaming as well as the competition that goes along with competing for the top ranking spots. Novel Summary The Depths of Magic is a LitRPG novel focused on a Fantasy VRMMO setting. This is not a harem novel. In-Game systems The Depths of Magic features state-of-the-art technology never before seen in Hector's world. The key system the novel will bring up often is the Second Brain. The Second Brain system is more like a guidance AI for the players in the game that acts as if you had a second brain assisting your every action. How much guidance this AI will give is based on its experience or mastery skills a player will receive in the game. The guidance is seamless to a point where a player won't even realize they are being assisted, it's will feel like what they are doing is something they could always do. However, once they leave the game it will become quite apparent that they were receiving heavy guidance. The purpose of this system in a writing sense is to explain why a player can realistically become more powerful, more agile, or more skilled than they would otherwise be able to as a human. To give an example if someone could move faster than a bullet, how would a normal human brain be able to perceive and control this movement properly. Or how could a player who has never held a sword before become as experienced as someone who has trained with the sword all their lives? The magic system will be another focus of this novel. I don't want to spoil anything here but it should be an interesting one. The hope is that the system I have made will spark discussion between the readers on what combinations will do what. I already have most of it, but it will be fun to read as the author. Side notes My general focus for this novel is to attempt to make the in-game systems make sense. To give a vague example I have read a lot of novels of this genre and some have the habit of just creating such powerful items that it just breaks the system, and somehow the MC keeps finding challenging situations even with those items. What tends to happen when I read a novel like this I just ignore the stats of the items he is getting because the numbers don't even matter anymore. Release schedule: The chapter release schedule due to real-life complications is to release as I write them. Patreon setup: 1 chapter early release/discord access. Free content up to the current chapter includes an excel sheet that contains Locke's current stats at the end of the chapter. This is extra information for those that are interested.

Sector 27
It wasn't until June 3, 2101 that World War 4 ended. This was not a war that ended in peace treaties or truces; this war ended with disease. The atomic war caused plague and disease that crippled major countries. The generals and great leaders of the countries at war died from the radiation that penetrated every part of the globe. It was only then that humanity realized what they had done- what they had created. The first ever mutant was publicly executed the very day the war ended, and a new war began: the war against mutants. The surviving nation of Japan quickly rebuilt their country by dividing it into safe zones, or Sectors. There are currently 26 livable sectors in Japan; Sector 1 is the richest sector and the only sector that has completely rid itself of all radiation left over from the war. In fear against the threat of mutants, the once small section of the police force grew until it became the main police force in Japan. After all, humans shouldn't be blamed for crimes when the real threat to society is mutants. This police force that goes by their motto: Special Treatment Against Mutants (STAM) is comprised of agents that go about their work to capture and detain all mutants. Sector 26 is the poorest sector that humans can barely survive in; but there is one more part of Japan. This "dead zone" has such a high concentration of radiation that if a human were to step inside the barrier, they would die in mere moments. But within this dead zone, this 27th Sector, there lies a secret organization of mutants that fight against STAM and protect all mutants from their grasp. The Mutant Recovery and Protection Agency (MRPA) operates to hide mutants in society and allow them to live human lives. The only thing that stands in MRPA's way is STAM and its agents who hunt them down ruthlessly, so MRPA has their own set of skilled agents. And the battle rages on...
