Synopsis

When Yohan woke up in the morning, he had a beauty in his lap and in his bedroom. It was like a dream come true for him until reality struck him. It was then he remembered that he had been cursed by a goddess in the game he had been playing before sleeping. In his sleep-deprived state, he had offended the goddess and as a result, he had been cursed to become a 'no-good' man who could only provide 'support' to the 'heroines' of this world. Thinking nothing of that curse beforehand, Yohan went to sleep, only to find his world changing from that day onwards. His normal and mundane life was no longer going to be as such as more and more fantasy creatures began to show up. And a female voice awoke him with a notification *Ding dong ding. Congrats on unlocking the fiction system. From here on, the user will experience the full scope of the logic of the fiction world. May the user use his PP and conquer everyone.* And it was then Yohan realized - he was no longer in a world governed by science but one that followed the laws of magic. And the only way to survive was to utilize these so-called 'laws of fiction' to his advantage. And the best and worst part of it all? The more he let his desire go, the stronger he became. — — — 500 PS/150 GT = 1 extra chapter Gifts above 1000 = 1 extra chapter instantly Show support for a faster release rate. . — — — Additional Tags: Evil Mc(Will develop) - Intelligent Mc - Shameless Mc - Scheming Mc(Later on) - Smut - No NTR - But Contains Netori - Legal Loli - Succubus - Elf - Angel - Vampire - Cat Girls - Dragon Girls - Fox Girls - Monster Girls - Slaves - Milf - Princess - Beautiful - YANDERE - Seinen - Mature - R18 - 18 - Sex Stories - Beastality - Hentai - NSFW - Pregnancy - Incest - Domination Play - Controlling Emotions - Corrupting Righteous Characters - Gore - Transmigration - Mana - Devil - Demon - Necromancer - Death - Dungeon - Evolution - Threesome - Hints of Yuri — ー ー Warning: Read at your own risk.

The Shadow of Great Britain

“Next, we have the most noble recipient of the Order of the Garter, the Grand Cross of Saint Michael and Saint George, the Grand Cross of the Bath, the Victoria Cross and the lower grades of Knighthood, the leader of the anti-colonial movement, the bell-ringer of the East India Company, the hero of the Crimean War, a Fellow of the Royal Society, a lifelong dear friend of literary giants such as Dickens and Great Dumas, a steadfast supporter of scientific luminaries like Faraday and Darwin, having served as assistant under-secretary, deputy under-secretary, and permanent under-secretary in departments of the Home Office and the Navy Department of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland, the inaugural Cabinet Secretary and head of the civil service, the first graduate and most distinguished alumnus of our school. Please welcome Sir Arthur Hastings to deliver a speech on the occasion of the fiftieth anniversary of the founding of the University of London.” Arthur's gaze swept across the crowd before him, looking at the young faces and murmured, “Agares, what do you think I should say?” The Red Devil's wraith hovered behind him, saliva almost dribbling from the corner of his mouth, “Look at these ignorant souls; they still worship you as a hero. Why not say something they'd like to hear?” Arthur took a deep breath and let out a deafening roar, “Oxford is a bunch of whores' bastards!” “Oh!!!!” The audience erupted into thunderous applause. “Cambridge is the same!” he added immediately.

Well, great short science fiction stories are good at creating a quick connection with the reader. They start fast and draw you in immediately. For example, 'A Sound of Thunder' starts with the idea of time - traveling to hunt dinosaurs. They also often use a limited number of characters effectively. In 'I Have No Mouth, and I Must Scream', the few characters are used to show the horror of the situation. And they can make you think about big questions, like in 'The Ones Who Walk Away from Omelas' which makes you consider the nature of a perfect society.

They are very good at creating unique and vivid settings. Take 'The Martian Chronicles' (even though it's more of a collection of related short stories). Each story within it builds a detailed and fascinating picture of Mars, from its desolate landscapes to the strange new cultures that might exist there. This ability to create immersive settings is a key characteristic.

Some good social science fiction short stories include 'I Have No Mouth, and I Must Scream' by Harlan Ellison. It depicts a post - apocalyptic world where a supercomputer torments the last remnants of humanity, exploring themes of power and suffering. 'The Pedestrian' by Ray Bradbury is another one. It shows a future where a man's simple act of walking at night is seen as abnormal in a society dominated by technology. And 'The Star' by Arthur C. Clarke, which tells a story of an astronaut's discovery that challenges religious beliefs and has implications for society.
