"Hey Colby, wanna go to the mall with me and Tara?" Jake asked me as he entered my room
"Yeah why not? I need new clothes anyway" I said as he nodded and left my room
I put on my shoes, got a random shirt out of my closet and threw on a beanie. I headed downstairs where they were waiting for me
"Colby, come take a picture with us before we leave" Tara said as i nodded and made my way to her. I posed for the picture and she posted it on her snapchat story
"Who's car are we taking?" I said as we were about to leave
"Tara's car" Jake said as he showed me her keys
"Ok let's go, shopping time with the boys!!!" Tara said as she jumped up and down
-Colby-
As we got to the mall, i wanted to go to hot topic first.
"I'll catch you guys later, call me when we leave" I said as they nodded
We entered from the second floor and HT was on the first. I found the nearest elevator and waited until the doors opened. A family came out and i hopped in, seeing the doors close in front of me.
As i got to the first floor, i got to HT and went inside
"Welcome to Hot Topic! Buy 1 shirt, get the 2nd one for 20% off" said the worker when i walked in
I nodded and proceeded to head to the back of the store. I saw some jeans that i liked and a couple shirts, also got black and white nail polish. Went around the corner to find some chains but i couldn't find them anywhere
"Need some help?" I turned around and saw the girl that i met at the party

"Uh- yeah, where can i find the chains?" I said as she walked me to where they were
"Thank you" I said as she nodded
I picked out the ones i liked and headed to pay. I ended up paying with the girl who i saw at the party.
"It'll be $46.50 and aren't you the guy i met at the party the other day?" I laughed as i paied her
"Uh, yeah that's me" I said as she handed me my receipt
"Have a good day, see you around" I nodded and thanked her
-Colby-
As i left HT, i left the mall without telling Jake and Tara. I took a uber to the city so i can walk around and get things off my mind.
My phone rang and it was Jake, i ignored it as i got off the car. Then 2 min later, Tara calls me. I let it ring as i was walking the city.
The beach was around the corner and the boardwalk too. So i headed over there to watch the sunset. My phone kept ringing so i decided to put it on 'Do Not Disturb' so i can enjoy my alone time.

I lit up a cig as i was walking down the street. Cars passing by me, people shopping, or eating, basically everything that you see in LA is a everyday thing.
I came upon this star on the wall and i wanted to take a picture with it. So i stopped this random couple so they can take it for me
"I took a bunch!" The man said as i smiled and thanked him
They came out good and i posted one on IG
-
It was 9:40pm when i looked at the time and decided on going home.

As i got home after the uber dropped me off, everyone was there. All my friends were at the house, i just want a day that is peaceful here
"Where were you?! We kept calling you but you didn't answer!" Jake said as he came up to me
"I left, but i'm home now. I'm gonna go to my room" I said as i walked up the stairs
"Tell me next time man, you scared me" Jake yelled out
I scared him? Agh, like if he even cares about me
As i got into my room, i took my clothes out from the bag and hanged up the shirts and put my jeans in the drawers. I was about to throw away my receipt when i saw red marks on it. And it read
"Y/N, (950)2788"
I laughed and put the receipt on the table.

Magic-Farming
A thought experiment gone out of control, inspired by kosnik4's popular story, Magic-Smithing. What would life be like for someone else who was transported to the world inside Magic-Smithing? Someone who wasn't as prone to encounter incresasingly dangerous people, whose life was a little less chaotic? What if this person was content with a simple life of farming? Tending to the plants, sowing seeds, and reaping a great harvest at the end of the year. Of course, he's also a data scientist, so he can't help but squeeze out the maximum possible efficiency of his time and the potential of his attributes. Who doesn't make excel spreadsheets in their spare time? This is a slightly more "Slice of Life" esque version of kosnik4's story. Hopefully lighthearted, funny, and as enjoyable to read as it is thinking of increasingly ridiculous skill progressions. Thanks to kosnik4 and Magic-Smithing for providing fertile grounds for creativity to thrive. NOTE: THIS IS A FAN FICTION, AND ALL INTELLECTUAL RIGHTS BELONG TO KOSNIK4. I'm a patron of his story, and love reading about what happens next in his story. I've tried my best to be as accurate to his canon science as possible, though it's not 100% feasible. Afterall, the story isn't even done yet! My plan for the releases is to release a single chapter a day until 3/7, and then release 4 chapters a week on M, W, F, & Sat. P.S. If anyone can figure out what the EXACT formula for Level XP is, I'd love to hear it. I'm starting to doubt my math and excel capabilities. I have an equation that is fairly accurate and stays close to his values, but not exactly the same.

8 186Shatter the Heavens; Slaughter the Gods
Arminius of the ancient era stood over mankind with the ability to perform magic. His ability allowed him to triumph over mortal armies and carve a domain for himself. Then, the martialists attacked. Their individual strength was lower than that of magicians, but the sheer number of them made them an unstoppable force. In the wake of tens of thousands of martialists and hundreds of thousands of mortal warriors, one lone magician was unable to stand against the tide. But, the powers of a magician allowed Arminius to escape the cycle of reincarnation, landing him an eon into the future. In the new age, magicians are entirely extinct, and the martialists from the old era have perfected their martial way, allowing them to attain godly powers that far surpass what Arminius was ever capable of. So, what else should Arminius do except learn their method and use it against them?! Reincarnated as Andric, he seeks to gain the powers of the martialists and reclaim his position at the throne of the world! A fossil of a bygone age where magic was rampant and he ruled with an iron fist, Arminius is reborn into a world in which magic is fading. The non-magical revolution successful and his rule long over, he must master the new ways of martial arts to rule anew.
