Welcome to Academy City.


Sun has rising, and birds are chirping outside the window of Lynn Esmeralda's house. A blonde girl with emerald green eyes and fair light skin. 
As the season is spring,the temperature is warmer ,contrast to the winter season.
She woke up early,so she can prepare breakfast,clean her bedroom,and get ready for her work,as a college student of  Art major in university .
And then she come back home. Feed her puppy,Edgard number 01, a Pomeranian with gold fur that soft and clean because she bring her puppy diligently to the pet care.
She live alone. Lynn Esmeralda live apart from her hometown, so she study abroad and work diligently to get more promotion and proper title in her study and her work.
She is the fan of newest work of novel " Bloody Duchess of Evil,Elizabeth Bathory!". The story mainly told the story and recent history of villainess duchess ever existed in history,Elizabeth Bathory. Comes from lonely family of Duke Bathory Family, little Elizabeth grow up with empty heart and less emphaty .
When Elizabeth was brought to a newer nobility,her new husband,she still brought her family name,Bathory,since her husband got lower nobility than her,and as a result, the lower nobility must use the surname or family name of higher nobility family.
So they know new duchess as ,Duchess Elizabeth Bathory.
Elizabeth always left alone when her husband got faraway of work reason. In that period, one of her maid told her about a secret can keep her beauty last forever, she wipe the lip of the duchess with blood she just got.
Then Elizabeth got curious,then her maid told her secret that maiden blood can make appearance more youthful and beautiful.
Then hopeless Elizabeth believe her,and then she began the hunting of maiden for using their blood to reach the peak of beauty.
More than one month and years has passed but no one realize her act of murder.
Then the corpses thrown in the yard of Bathory Residence and sell or being trashed secretly.
Until the number of corpses was raised,she got caught and got punished by guillotine to chop her head off.
It was a sad story.
There is no romance or heart-warming scene,just jealousy ,affair,the treachery,politic,more of complicated matter of noble family.
Most of reader are symphatetic to the main character as well as the antagonist, Elizabeth Bathory, but got emphaty to her victim.
If she just had her mind clearly and not clouded with the matter of her,she won't have those evil nor murderous thought.
It was the idea of the maid,but the maid got freedom and come back to her homeland.
It was rightful judgement because it was Elizabeth false to trust the false rumour of beauty tips.
Thus become the novel end.
The villain got punished,but in this hardcore dark novel, the protagonist, all the victims were dead and not getting their ending nicely.
Although like that,the was the theory that duchess bathory was a vampire since she obsessed with the blood of maiden.
The novel was in mature book rack, but the most mysterious book ever that got only 13th volume. 
The extra bonus volume was Elizabeth point of view,as well as her husband,her maid and the victim point of view.
The volume known as darkest history of Bathory Nobility.
And the volume was named as the thirteen zodiac,as well as the dark constellation ever known.
The writer also seems to be obsessed with some dark genre,which was not suitable for general audience.
But the conflict and plot written in the novel was suited for those who like mysterious vibe of reading a novel.
While imagining a mess of event and chronology, the fandom of " Bloody Duchess of Evil,Elizabeth Bathory!" was hoping in advance for the development of genre which writer had to make novel.
In case a lovely romantic novel,or a detective or action and adventure in the writer absence of work.
The online forum is told to help writer make more colorful stories ever so more like dreamy novel ever written.
But unfortunately since the writer ability in mojor of dark genre,the writer is still in time of developing such skill.
Well but it doesn't matter for Lynn Esmeralda,as she was the fan of the novel,so dark genre was newest of her collection.
Back to the present, Lynn on her way back home got splashed by the dirt after rain pours hardly from above the sky.
Since Lynn has forgot her umbrella,she got soaked with water and dirt.
But she got lucky since she comes home early because got prefect in her presentation of Venus arms sculpture.
 All thing become better after Lynn took a bath with her favorite bath boom , Fruity Flavor scent , and got her favorite body lotion, lavender scent flavor ,she is done prepare to comfy herself to her bedroom.
Got some novel to read while eating cookies and snacks ,and drink a warm milk and sleep for a while for tomorrow morning.
It was morning with the same chirping birds and breeze from the open windows,but the light is too bright for morning, afraid of waking up late,she opened her eyes where the places is not the same world she is living.
It was era where was dukedom and nobility still exist ,it's fashion attire that legendary and then she saw herself on a white night gown, she search for a mirror to see her face and then see herself in smaller size of adult height, a child.
"Miss Bathory, please let me prepare you for a proper dress now" a maid in talking with Lynn softly.
"wh..what?"
She slipped on her night dress and fell to the ground.
"well, I praising you author for making such a realistic environtment novel about era where king still rule and steam train still in progress of creation.."
"miss Bathory ,what are you mumbling for"
It was the day when Lynn in Elizabeth Bathory in her child form body.
What a mess.

Lynn Esmeralda wake up nowhere in here room but instead in a castle of an evil empress, Elizabeth Bathory,can she change the bloody history ever or the history itself was different from what it looks..or that she will ascend the throne of Britannia Empress...

Dear readers, I would like to say sorry if I cannot finish this novel. I have terrible writing skills as I can't put into words the things that I want you to visualize. 
So, I decided to enhance and practice making comics instead. First, I will make some comedy genre with a chibi art style titled, "Daily Life of Bochokoy and Friends (DOBAF)". If my drawing skills gets better and faster, I will surely make a comic of this novel. It might take me years; I need to save money first to buy tools for digital drawing.
I might be writing another novel though, titled "Codename: Anomaly". That novel is just compilation of very short stories, so I think I can handle it. I am planning to make a comic based on that too, titled "Codenames".
After I finished DOBAF or got improve or able to draw fast, I dunno if you will be sad to hear this since this novel is not that good but I just wanna say that I will create a comic for "PLAYERS: Card System" first, before making a comic for Zombie God. Since I think the PLAYERS: Card System is much more shorter than the Zombie God.
I will now reveal the main story of Zombie God. Thank you for reading this and adding this to your library. You made me so much happy. Thank you for the support.
Summary
This story is about an introvert high school student, he will improve his social skills and get more friends as the story takes longer and longer. The world changed when they saw a video in their smartphones, computers and televisions. In the video, someone open an ancient gate and the light that came from the gate caused havoc and catastrophe to the whole humanity as the people who watched it become monsters.
These monsters are like zombies with incredible and super abilities. Their appearance is more like imbalance fusion of bodies. Like a human combined with a chicken, or a rock, or maybe a fusion with a god.
They become unstable and become monsters like a zombie completely because simply their DNA sequence are impure. The light from the gate is like a signal that trigger their brain to forcefully send messages to the DNA, sleeping DNA to be exact.
The signal says, "wake up" making their turned off DNA to turn on.
A human's DNA is % the same to the monkeys, % the same to, and % the same to the. Well, to make it short our DNA have similarities to other creature but it is just turned off, we don't have tails, a horn, wings, or a super smelling ability.
In this fictional story, our DNA is fully asleep including the turned off DNA sequence. It means once it was awakened, new unknown DNA sequences will pop out as the original or ancient DNA sequences are trying to comeback.
The more human your DNA sequences is, the more impure it is, making the awakened DNA sequences more harder to adapt to your body. If you are 0.1% less human than a normal human is then you have greater chance to survive and not become a zombie monster. But even though you are purer than the rest, it is a gamble if the awakened DNA sequences can adapt to your body.
But if the awakened DNA gets fully took over your humanity, then consider yourself as dead or should I say possessed by someone or something.
The ancient gate was the ancient pandora box.
Thousands of mysterious entities, super creatures and many more are bought back to life or partially brought back to life, they are the ancient creatures, the past us.
Hate was the one who opened the gate, as he was fooled by an entity, we can call this entity, the "Snake". The Snake created Hate's father which is just a puppet of the Snake.
The goal of the Snake is to bring back the Cosmic God to our world and to do that he must create a strong signal. He must eat the basic seven hearts of the Universe. Even in the ancient world, it was hard to find a creature with a godly heart, that is why the Snake waited for too long for the humanity's population to grow.
Blue: Heart of Life
Razz: Heart of Matter
Zeren: Heart of Death
Lyra: Heart of Sound (not the sound we scientifically know)
General Nepo: Heart of Time
Shino: Heart of Space
Violet: Heart of Dark Matter
Hate and Despair, their job is to avoid the cancelation of hearts. Once the Heart of Life is eaten by the Heart of Death it will destroy both destroy each other, the same will happen to the Heart of Matter and Heart of Dark Matter.
The snake waited and worked secretly in the dark, he secretly manipulated every actions of people and manage to create people with a higher chance to become stable with the new awakened DNA.
Once the seven hearts are eaten, the Snake will become an entity that he wants. Then a cosmic egg will appear and the egg will break and the Cosmic God will appear. The Snake knows the Cosmic God will come and try to destroy him.
The Snake did not fight the Cosmic God but instead started apologizing and begging for a second chance for some reason. But the Cosmic God didn't accept his apology and killed the Snake.
But before the Snake was killed, the seven hearts came back to life because of General Nepo's ability. An ability that has a delay before it will activate and it will make them come back to life.
They will now fight the cosmic God as the Cosmic God wants to wipe out the seven hearts.
The question is…
Can they win?
That is the summary of the main story of this novel. I wish you a happy new year. Once again, thank you for reading.

The world was turned to chaos and most of the people turned to super zombies just because of a video that shows an ancient gate. Few people that watched the video didn't turned to zombies but instead they gained some nonhuman abilities. There are some few survivors across the globe, but the question is, how and who will save the world?

It is year 3019. 
The future is now! Cures for all illnesses, A.I. Chips that replaced smartphones, and Earth is using the power of Dark Matter instead of electricity and fossil fuels. In this Novel we join the Fallen Genius Ken Wolfe who modified the device capable of of containing the Dark Matter for his own use but something strange occurred...

 *********

The world in the novel originally had two fundamental elements, light mana and dark mana. Every creature was to contain either of them to sustain. While light mana was considered sacred, the dark mana was taken to be destructive. Humans together with other creatures contained core in their bodies which was the basis for mana.
As soon as a baby is born, it is immedietly made to undergo a test to recognize the compatibilty of core with light mana. By chance, the core responded to the latter, it was immedietly killed. There was only one clan which was holder of dark core, which has managed to thrive till now, having a history as deep as an abyss.
The lord of the Demon Clan was the second male lead, who had never been known for mercy. He had been inflicted with a "Curse" since birth. Rather than calling it a curse, it was better to say that it was poison. Although Vanesse, didn't know the details, she knew for sure that it was 'almost' cured by the female lead, which picques his interest.
Calling it a "interest" was only to put in a nice way. In reality, it was more like taking fancy over a doll. The second male lead, Lucian Calisto, was the type to get what he wants, even if it means using illicit ways. If he couldn't get his hands on it, he would rather destroy it, such was his twisted personality.
That's why in the end of the novel he brutally tortures the female lead, pushing her to the brink of death as she chose the Male lead over him.
Although, Vanessse wanted to aviod running into main character, it would be an impossible feat, with her being the Royal Master of the two male leads.
Seeing herself in the mirror, she roughly guessed her age to be sixteen, meaning it was only few months since she had become the Duke of Savine family. Therefore she estimated that she was yet to become a Royal Master in The Academy of Agracia.
Being lost in her thoughts, she had forgotten about the guy kneeling in front of her. Not knowing what to do with him she decides send him out of the room for now.
"Hm. You can leave now."
The man got up and opened the door halfway but halted, after he heard her voice.
"Wait, bring me all the books on history of Savine family, Petro family and the Castilo clan". She wanted know more about herself, in addition with " Lucian Calisto" and " Austin Petro". 
The man nodded, and went out. Within a few minutes a huge pile of books were delivered into her study. Vanesse, who was now Violet, sighed at thoght of having to read all of it. Violet spent her days gathering information on all the characters of the novel she could think of, while performing her duties as the duke. In a blink an eye, a year passed by.
In this period she managed to learn to control her mana. Just like the novel stated Violet had an unique core. Her core was not attracted to light mana nor dark mana. Instead she could use both. While light man had three types, Fire, wind, water, Dark mana had two types, puppetry and necromancy. 
After a few years, Violet becomes one of the influential figure in her kingdom because of her ability of using both types of mana. 
As the duke of Savine family, she should've already been able get rid of unwanted pests in the family. Yet no matter how much she tried, she was unable to gather courage to kill even the assasins, who visited her almost every night, let alone the members of her family. She only disabled them from using mana, leaving the cleaning work to her aide, Ana, who became close to her during the past year.
Violet knew she had to confront her life as the duke, who should've been able to kill a human by now. Nevertheless, after living in a lawful world in her previous life she couldn't bring herself to harm a living person. As a consequence, she had been pushed to the cage full of monstrous beasts, by her tutor, everytime she refuses harm a living soul.

A normal college student who loves reading novels, transmigrates into a novel. Being a fan of transmigration, Vanesse would've been more than happy to transmigrate into a novel world.

 But as fate had decided, she entered a novel she despised the most. It was none other than "The healer from another world". It was one of the most craziest novel she had ever read. 

She becomes the Royal Master whose disciples the male lead as well as the second male lead.

If the male lead is considered a maniac, than the second male lead is on another level. Their obsession for the female lead was boundless , which knew no limits.

Our Vanesse, who becomes Violet, decides to make both the male leads, a gentleman, and teach them the proper way to pursue the female lead.
 
Will our protagonist be able to do it?

"Next question."

Hyunjae flat our refused to answer her very first question.

"It's the most important one!" Rian protested. 

"Yeah, but I don't want to answer that one now," Hyunjae replied. "Otherwise this novel will end before it even started. Let the mystery stretch."

Rian rolled her eyes.

"Fine!" she conceded. "Why was that demon calling you 'Demon Lord'?"

"Because I am the Lord of all Demons," Hyunjae yawned. "Those things which you see latched on to other humans? They report to me everyday."

"So...it's your fault that I see these things?" Rian asked.

"That...I don't know," Hyunjae admitted. "It is a mystery as to why you see demons. However, I can assure you that you're not the first Demon Seer I have encountered."

"Demon Seer?" It was the same term So Min's demon used.

"A person who can see demons," Hyunjae explained. "I have met a few before. This ability seems to awaken in very few people. It is a mystery why some people can see demons."

"So, my demon, Lambark also reports to you?" she pointed at the light ash demon standing next to her bed.

"Yes," Hyunjae answered.

"As if you ever read any of our reports," Lambark snorted. "You throw them in the garbage!"

"Only when I see typos in them," Hyunjae shot back. "Your one is full of spelling errors."

Lambark glowered at him. Rian ignored their banter.

"Lambark," she barked at it. "Leave. I have some urgent matters to discuss with him."

Grumbling under its breath, Lambark vanished in thin air. Rian suspected that it was pressing its ear against the door from outside.

"Moving on," she pressed loudly. "Why was that demon trying to kidnap me? Who is this Boram?"

"Not answering," Hyunjae refused. "Gonna ruin the mystery of this novel."

"What are we? A gag novel?"

"Well the writer entered a WPC on a whim and ended up making this novel without any idea of how to proceed with the rest of the story. So she decided to turn it into a gag novel."

(A/N: Next chapter will feature the funeral of the ML ._.*)

Rian sighed and fell back on the pillow. 

"There is, however, a pressing matter which requires attention," Hyunjae's tone suddenly turned serious. "And only a Demon Seer can aid us in it."

Rian looked at him quizzically.

"Recently, a lot of demons have been going astray," he explained. "They are now rebelling against their human hosts."

"Rebelling?" Rian shot a look at Lambark, who was looking away.

"Yes," Hyunjae said. "In the demon world, they are not allowed to leave their human vessels. They are bound to them until the human dies. Once, the human dies, the demon is also slated to die. Otherwise, there will be millions of stray demons roaming around the earth, harming other human beings. Which is why that law was made."

"However, recently the demons have been gaining power through illegal methods. They've been dabbling into the dark arts and are eating their vessels' souls to gain power. By eating away their human counterpart's soul, they are imbuing themselves with unstable energy which can give them momentary powers to live without human vessels. In the process, they possess their vessels and make them do unspeakable things. The humans, in their hour of despair, give in to their dark desires. As they grow darker, so do their demons."

"But the ritual is temporary," he continued. "It does not guarantee a full life. The demon will eventually die without a human vessel unless it eats the soul of other human beings. They do this by attacking other humans straight on, feasting on their inside organs. As the human dies, they eat the escaping soul and gain more time for themselves."

His words sickened Rian. Demons can do all these heinous things? She only knew them as entities which spread negative thoughts within people and make human beings do the dirty deeds. She did not even dream that they can do worse things themselves.

Then again the demons are evil beings. If they can spread bad omens through their words, then they are capable of doing even worse things on their own.

"And the one behind all this is...Boram," Hyunjae revealed.

"How is he doing all this?" Rian whispered.

"I don't know," he admitted. "But we need to stop him. Problem is, to purify a demon, we need to have solid evidence that the demon is eating their vessel's soul. To explain it in simple terms, we need an evidence to show that a possession is going on. Gathering the evidence can take months or even years. By that time, it will be too late. Just because a demon is dark in color doesn't mean he is possessing his human vessel. It may be due to the fact that he was successful in influencing his host. After all, that is his job."

"Hence, we need a Demon Seer to help us gather that evidence," Hyunjae concluded.

"But if you are the Demon Lord, then you're able to see them as well, right?" Rian asked. "You can see the shifts in their colors! Why don't you do it?"

"Because...I have no demon," he said. His voice was heavy now, as if remembering some painful memory. "A person who lost his demon, cannot judge a person with a demon. In my case, the ritual won't work if I try purifying the demon without any evidence backed up by a Demon Seer. Hence, I need you."

Rian was truly confused now. "But if you're the Demon Lord, doesn't that make you a demon?" she asked.

"No...it's a complicated backstory and our author is on a thousand word limit," Hyunjae laid backwards as he said it. "Anyways, I have a more urgent matter to attend to. So Min's funeral."

The last words made Rian felt a little guilty. Amidst her ongoing questions, she almost forgot about So Min's funeral. The CEO should be handling that but instead he was stuck with taking care of her.

"Sir, you should go on," she told him. "I'll be fine. I'm feeling better already."

He nodded.

"Shua will be here soon with some food and clothes for you," Hyunjae informed her, as he got up. "The doctors didn't find anything wrong with you but they insisted on keeping you overnight." 

"Thank you for your kindness," Rian said gratefully. "You saved my life and also admitted me in the hospital. I cannot thank you enough. I'm indebted to you."

"Not really," Hyunjae said. "I've cut off the hospital fees from your next month's salary. Five hundred dollars to be exact. You don't have to feel inebted."

Rian felt as if someone knocked the daylights out of her.

"F-f-five hundred..." she counted in her hands. "F-f-five..."

"I gotta go, Ms. Oh," Hyunjae waved her goodbye as he left the room.

"Aren't romance novel's CEO's supposed to pay for their female leads?" Lambark asked in astonishment as it reappeared.

Rian shot him a look. "Romance novel, my foot!" she exclaimed. "Let's just murder him, steal all his money and turn this darn novel into a thriller!"

(A/N: Isn't it already a thriller? ^^')

Noticing that he was dressed in a long black trench coat and hat, she asked, "Where are you going?" 

"Out," he muttered. 

"Where?" 

"For some work." 

Rian narrowed her eyes. "What work?" 

Hyunjae put on a smug expression. "To get my hair done," he lied with a pompous tone. 

"You had it done yesterday," she stated suspiciously. "You never go to the salon for more than once a month because you keep on saying that too many chemicals can cause hair fall." 

"I'm going for a haircut!" he lied, feeling nervous. He saw a glint of anger in Rian's eyes. 

"Don't lie to me," she said slowly, taking a step towards him. Hyunjae stepped back in fear. 

"Jo Sun said that you'd rather die than cut your hair short," she accused.

Hyunjae was backed into a corner, shivering in fright. His back was against a wall. Rian might be small but she was intimidating. She put her hands on either sides of Hyunjae, caging him as she looked up. 

"Tell me!" she demanded softly. 

"I-I'm going on a date!" he declared, sweating profusely. What is this situation? He wondered. Aren't the CEO's of romance novels supposed to be caging the female leads in their arms? Why is the male lead getting caged instead?

 ........ 

Rian is a seemingly ordinary girl, with aspirations to complete her education. While everything about her looks normal on the surface, she hides a dark secret: she can see demons of a person. 

Every person is attached to a demon. The demons leech on their negative thoughts and take them to the extreme levels on inhumanity. Rian sees them all, whispering negative thoughts into the ears of their hosts while remaining completely invisible to everyone. Even Rian herself has her own demon, Lambark. 

But when Rian gets a job at TNT Corps, the leading fashion house of her country, she begins to notice a disturbance in the demonic energy. 

Hyuk Hyunjae, is the CEO of TNT Corps where Rian is hired. However, upon meeting the mysterious but flamboyant CEO, Rian's heart skipped a beat. He had no demon attached to him. 

Does that mean he was a genuinely good person? Or was he something more sinister? 

As Rian gets entangled in Hyunjae's web, a serial killer wreaks havoc in town. What was Hyunjae's secret? And why was Rian getting so attracted to this dangerous person? 

..... 

"What do you want?" Hyunjae finally asked. 

"I want the Demon Seer," Changmin stated clearly. "I won't let you use her as bait." 

"Rian is not bait," Hyunjae said quietly. "She is an important asset. We need her to stop Boram." 

"Did you even tell her the truth about Boram?" Changmin demanded. "Hyuk Hyunjae, aren't you being selfish? You may hide behind that goofy persona, but I know your real face. It's the face of a demon." 

"You mean a handsome daredevil," Hyunjae corrected him cheekily. "As much as I would love to entertain you today, it is regretful that I will have to refuse your offer." 

"You can't," Changmin shot back. "The contract has been signed. If any of us terminate it early, the party backing out will have to pay fifty million dollars to the other one." 

"Oh no I'm not talking about the contract," Hyunjae waved him off. "Give up the best male model of the country? Do I look mad? That's business opportunity right there. Even if you're second lead material." 

Changmin felt his nerve twitch. 

"I am simply rejecting your offer of taking Rian away," Hyunjae leaned back with a smug look.

FYI THIS IS A GAG COMEDY/THRILLER WHERE THE FOURTH WALL IS CONSTANTLY BROKEN. 

Note: The cover is not my original one. Credits goes to the original artist. Thank you!

This handsome man with an eyepatch was reading a book on his own. He exuded a bookish beauty that would not be out of place in an anime.
But… the book's cover was actually a beautiful girl in bikini-armor, and the novel had such a name!
It wasn't that Seiji objected to this person reading such a light novel. In fact, Seiji was more than happy to see others reading light novels. It was just that the impression he gave Seiji seemed totally unlike the type that would read such a novel.
Well, at the very least, there was a male supporting character with an eyepatch in this novel as well...
'Eh, why does it feel like I'm getting off track with my comments? Well, forget it. The boy's free to read whatever he likes.'
Seiji walked into the pagoda and sat down opposite the gray-haired boy.
He took out his cell phone and was about to contact the president when his phone started ringing; she had beat him to it.
"What's the matter, Natsuya?"
"Nothing. There's no need to worry. I just wanted to talk to you."
"A person named Shunsuke Furukawa told me that there's going to be a game of some sort later, but he didn't go into the specifics."
"I heard about this as well. Let's adapt to the situation. I'll try my best to avoid dueling, but..."
"I understand. I'll be prepared, so there's no need to worry about me," Seiji said with a chuckle. "After all, I'm your Spirit-branded Retainer."
"Yeah..." Natsuya felt a warm feeling in her heart when she heard this.
Their conversation ended on that note.
Seiji looked towards the gray-haired boy seated across from him. He noticed that the boy's brows were furrowed. The boy had a confused expression of "What the hell is this?" as he continued reading.
"Did you encounter some part that you weren't able to understand?" Seiji asked reflexively.
The gray-haired boy looked in his direction.
"Sorry to distract you. I've read that novel before, so I spoke up when I saw your expression," Seiji explained. "If there's any part of this novel that you don't understand, you can ask me."
The gray-haired boy blinked. "...Who might you be?"
"Shiroya," Seiji said.
A moment of silence fell between them.
"Shiroya-san... My name is Ryuuno Izawa. I would like to request your assistance regarding the contents of this page." The gray-haired boy turned the light novel in his hand to show Seiji the page that he was currently reading.
Seiji felt rather awkward explaining the fantastical events of a light novel to a boy with a serious personality.
According to Izawa, he wasn't reading the book of his own volition—his master had ordered him to do so. As well as reading it, his lady also told him to write a book report of at least five hundred words about it.
'An elementary schooler's homework!?' Seiji couldn't help but think to himself.
A book report on a light novel... As a light novel enthusiast, it was quite a simple task for him. However, it would certainly be a difficult job for a non-enthusiast. It was akin to asking Seiji to write a book report on some great classic.
How could he possibly write a good book report on a book that was so difficult to understand and boring enough to put him to sleep!?
The same could be said when it came to understanding the book. Who would want to understand a book when they didn't even want to read it the first place? Since they gained enjoyment from reading it, how could they be passionate about understanding it?
And this was excluding all the questions about an author's intention. Even the authors themselves were unable to answer some of those questions--the college examinations in his previous life were a great example of this...
Seiji coughed in his mind. 'I'm getting sidetracked.'
"Thank you for your explanation, Shiroya-san," the boy said solemnly.
"No need to be polite. It was a simple matter."
'It also helped me pass the time,' Seiji thought to himself.
Suddenly, he saw a figure darting around in the trees outside the pagoda. It was the Spirit-branded Retainer that had been standing on the fake mountain.
He was an energetic little boy with short fiery red hair and a handsome little face. He was wearing a hoodie and sweatpants, and his lips were parted in an innocent grin.
He jumped from tree to tree like a graceful acrobat. While he was in midair, he somersaulted, flipped, and spun. It seemed like he was giving a performance and enjoying it.
Seiji watched the red-haired boy dance through the air, then backflip and land on the ground when he reached the final tree.
The moment the boy landed on the ground, he did a handstand and flew up into the pagoda, landing steadily like a well-trained gymnast.
"Hello, strange onii-chan," the little red-haired boy called out.
"Hello, strange little boy," Seiji replied.
"Don't call me little boy—my name is Yuuki Oyokumo!"
"Alright then, Oyokumo-san."
"Don't call me Oyokumo-san either—that sounds so old!"
"Oyokumo-kun."
"That's fine." The red-haired little boy nodded. "Onii-san, what's your name?"
"Shiroya."
"Shiro...ya? Is that your name?"
"It's my name."
"What about your family name?"
"You don't need to know."
"Eh... Onii-san, you really are strange."
Seiji smiled. "Oyokumo-kun, do you have something you want from the strange me?"
"Nope. I just came by to say hi. I didn't think that onii-san... Shiroya onii-san, you look really strange, but seem easy to talk to."
"I'm just making polite conversation," Seiji responded casually.
A steady beat of footsteps sounded behind them.
"Yuuki, what are you doing?" a voice asked.
Both of them turned around to see a man with dark blonde hair. He had round-lensed glasses and was wearing a black jacket with long black pants. He seemed a little depraved, but in his eyes was a concealed sharpness.
"I'm talking to Shiroya onii-san," the red-haired boy said.
"Shiroya?" The dark blonde man looked towards Seiji. "I'm sorry, but what might your full name be?"
"Just call me Shiroya," Seiji said coolly.
The blonde-haired man's eyes narrowed slightly. "I see... my apologies." He then looked towards Yuuki Oyokumo. "Come with me! Go over there with me, and stay put."
"Eh... I want to have a chat with Shiroya onii-san."
"You're giving him trouble, idiot," the blonde-haired man rebuked.
Yuuki was startled by this. "Er?"
"Stop talking, and leave with me now." The man beckoned with his hand, a serious expression on his face.
Yuuki looked confused, but when he saw the blonde-haired man's solemn expression, he relented and left the pagoda.
After they walked for a while, the dark blonde man spoke up again. "That person is using a disguise spell. Shiroya is definitely an alias. He obviously doesn't want to reveal his true identity."
"What?"
"Just talking to him is giving him trouble. Do you understand?"
"Eh... But he..."
"You need to be more observant and use your brain more when interacting with others," the blonde-haired man said in a light voice. "Casually interacting with others might give the other party trouble, and it might bring trouble upon yourself. Remember that."
Yuuki frowned slightly but didn't say anything else.
Seiji watched Yuuki and the blonde man leave before turning away. He saw that Ryuuno Izawa had closed and stowed away the novel.
"You finished reading it?" Seiji asked.
"No."
"Why did you stop?"
"Because... I felt rather tired."
"Then could you loan it to me to read?"
Izawa blinked in surprise. "Shiroya-san, didn't you say that you've already read this book?"
"I want to read it again because I'm bored."
Izawa fell silent for a moment. Finally, he took the book out again and handed it to Seiji.
"Thank you." Seiji opened the book and began reading it.
"Shiroya-san," Izawa said after a while, "I would like to ask a slightly impolite question."
"Hmm?"
"Why is it that you don't show your true self to others?" Izawa looked directly at Seiji. "To be allowed to enter here at all means that your identity is an established one. However, you're still covering yourself like this and using a fake name. I personally feel that this is a meaningless action, so I'm confused. Would you mind telling me the reason?"


Translator note: Apologies to the readers. This series is currently on hiatus. We ask for your understanding!
A 30-year-old Chinese NEET is reincarnated into the body of an otaku that choked to death on instant noodles. As he comes to grips with his new life, he realizes that this world is subtly different from Earth. The denizens of this world are far better looking, and this new world also possesses futuristic technology as well as mysterious Yin Yang masters! 
After reincarnating, he realized that he was endowed with a miraculous game-like system, which enables him to increase his own stats and transcend the limits of the human body. This system even has a game-breaking ability to save and load in real life!
In this new world that’s akin to a 2-D game, he just wants to enjoy life and head for a glorious future... However, he is quickly embroiled in a complex plot. Can he unlock his true potential and utilize his system to break the shackles that confine him and discover the truth about his previous body’s circumstances? 

There are some mistakes I had done in the previous novel, so I am writing this new novel.

I didn't explain the characters personalities properly.

Jamie having inherited the power of the horsemen of conquest, considered the species which he considers to be closest to which is human as his own people. He does not like the idea of normal humans getting involved with other supernatural beings and getting hurt without their choice.

Liam is a little lazy due to the side effects of his powers. He doesn't like to involve in the matters of supernatural but does it anyway because of his brothers.

Ryan is a protective brother and somewhat of a kind person, but he is also a battle maniac and often goes berserk like the hulk.

Ralph having inherited the power of horsemen of death, is losing most of his emotions. But this helps him predict the actions of people and manipulate them. Because of this, he cares so much about his brother, they help him keep his conscience and empathy alive. Not letting him become the incarnation of death itself.

And here is the explanation of their powers. 

Force: Death, War, Conquest and Famine. Force is a power originating from their souls, it can be used as a substitute for magical energy and it fuels their horsemen powers.

Aura: Similar to touki of DxD; Aura could be used for attacking through energy blasts, boost physical powers to form a second layer of invisible skin which gives them extra defence. It can also be used for healing. Each horsemen aura have unique special properties.


Aura of death- Dark aura which can disintegrate anything when strong and has strong corrosive property. 

Aura of Conquest-  A White shining aura which has high heat and is like poison to dark&demonic beings. Resistance to dark and demonic energy.

Aura of War- Red Aura which is can turn into a highly toxic liquid which put a curse that can negate healing, and can transform into weapons.

Aura of Famine - Dark green aura which sucks energy from the enemy and gives it to the user.

Now about the rest of their powers-

[ Death-

Flames of passing- Can damage both physical body and soul at the same time. It has the power to destroy elements. ]

[ Conquest-

Conquerer's lightning- Can destroy the bonds between molecules, atoms and even the soul's consciousness. ]

[ War-

Weapon creation- The power to create weapons with War aura. Such weapons are superior to the creations of Blade Blacksmith.

Berserker state- Enhance power when angry. ]

[ Famine-

Devouring beasts- Summon hungry creatures made from the energy that chow down on targets.

Devour- Can create a small black hole which sucks in all energy and covert matter into
Aura of Famine. ]

[ Equipment of Horsemen

Death Cloak: A symbiotic cloak made of dark mass, powered by Death Force. The dark mass has the power to shapeshift. It also grants the power of invisibility.

Armour of War: Boost all abilities, strength, speed all by high ten times. It can absorb damage and release all the power into a blast of kinetic energy. But the absorb is limited, it can only absorb half of the power of its damage resistance. 

Cloak of famine: Absorb physical&magical damage and converts it into energy to supply user. Unlike War Armour, it also capable of curses and soul attacks depended on the level of the user.

Crown of conquest: It gives the user the ability to borrow power from his followers and brothers. ]

I am changing some parts in this new novel. To those want Rias and gang to die, they will die but not now.

And at their full potential, each horseman can easily destroy Trihexa.
