‘Ruin Ardell.’... more>>

The name that was enrolled into the academy with the best grades.

More promising than anyone else.

More dilligent than anyone else.

More talented than any other magician. That’s what my name meant.

That’s what it meant…

until my 10th birthday.

I had received a death sentence.

‘Magic Evocation Disorder.’

A damned curse that turned the ‘Magic Genius’ that entered the academy with the highest grades into a ‘Magic Cripple’.

But then,

A miracle found me.

“If I can’t evoke magic, I just need to punch them!”

Oppressive Strength, Fearsome Fists, A Genius Magic Talent.

I’ll never lose to anyone ever again. <<less

Xu Mu was a hardcore otaku, who one night died suddenly from playing games late into the night, only to open his eyes and find himself alive again.... more>>

A noisy black ball surrounded him, claiming he had entered into some novel as a cannon fodder extra.

Xu Mu firmly believed he was experiencing hallucinations, waving his hand to dismiss the black ball.

With a "sizzle," after a few seconds, the black ball disappeared.

Sure enough, it was just a hallucination, and he went back to sleep satisfied.
-

Once, while out, Xu Mu encountered an injured rabbit on the road.

He intended to bandage the rabbit's wound, but the rabbit kept struggling, refusing to cooperate.

"Be good, I'll take you back to bandage your wound."

The rabbit stopped struggling.

Xu Mu: How fierce, but quite spiritual.

After bandaging the rabbit's wound, it ran off without looking back.

Xu Mu felt regretful, his wish of raising a rabbit shattered.

His life as a shut-in continued, until one day, the doorbell rang.

A fair and gentle man stood at the door, offering cookies and speaking softly, "Hello, I'm your new neighbor who recently moved in..."

Xu Mu didn't catch the rest of the words, his attention entirely on the box of cookies.

So hungry.

The man smiled gently, "Go ahead, eat."

Xu Mu wolfed down the cookies, only realizing he behaved inappropriately afterward. He looked at his neighbor sheepishly.

The man didn't say anything, his gaze still soft and accepting.

Later, Xu Mu discovered that his neighbor, who frequently visited, was an excellent cook. He often received delicious food, juices, and occasionally, dinner invitations.

From initially feeling anxious and guilty, Xu Mu gradually felt at ease, all within a few short months.

Xu Mu pondered that it wasn't right to keep eating without giving back, so he handed his bank card to his neighbor.

The man slowly widened his eyes, "What... do you mean?" His face started to flush slightly, a hint of crimson on his skin.

Xu Mu focused on his game, hastily handing over the card, "Take it."

—My food expenses are all covered in there, thank you for your hard work.

Recently, the man's frequency of sending delicious food had increased, and he even accompanied Xu Mu to play games every day, sometimes even helping him tidy up the house.

Xu Mu felt that something was amiss, but he couldn't quite put his finger on it.

“Even if it’s my child, I can still not love them.”... more>>

The day she terminated the 5-year-long contracted marriage and filled out the divorce papers, Hilia left Caligo without a second thought.

Leaving the byproduct of the contracted marriage, their child, with him.

Hilia Halos was a woman who was colder, more selfish, and more wicked than anyone else.

[Here’s the alimony. Since I don’t need this anymore, I’ll hand it over to you.]

That was what he thought, until he ceded the baronial estate that she so coveted and disappeared.

***

Hilia was sure she would be indifferent. About leaving the child, and about abandoning the man who brought her excitement.

“Mother, you don’t, hab to, lub, Riche. Riche gonna, only come, sometime. Riche will, lub you more……”

She was actually indifferent.

She would have been in the future, as well.

If only the dirt-covered child didn’t just appear out of nowhere after four years and told her such a thing.

“So……!”

Tears dripped down the child’s cheeks.

Hilia backed away from the child, who was running towards her with arms wide open.

She could not be a good parent, nor could she love anyone.

“My baby, there are things in the world you just can’t love.”

So, after leaving that single comment, she turned away.

Pretending not to notice the unfaltering gaze in front of her. <<less

My name is Tadano Akiru.... more>>

I’m just your average high school student.

I’m not very smart, I’m not very good at my thing, and I have a bad memory, but that’s all there is to it.

However, I regret to say that I have a childhood friend of the opposite gender.

Of course, she is not just a childhood friend, but a beautiful girl who everyone will look back on.

A beautiful girl who would certainly be a heroine if this world were a story of some kind.

Her name is Kosaka Akemi.

I have known Kosaka Akemi since kindergarten, and unlike me, she is extremely talented.

She is so talented that she was scouted for vice president by the charismatic student council president at this school. She is a beautiful girl with her outstanding appearance, academic ability and leadership skills that allow her to join the student council already in her first year.

She is a different creature from me, living in a world too different from mine.

She is a special existence that I would normally never have anything to do with.　

There was no way I could get along with such a distant existence just because we were childhood friends, and we hadn’t exchanged a word for more than a year now.

And yet…

“Well..! The cleaning is over, let’s go home!”

“Eh? go home….Where?”

“Eh? Of course! To your room, right Aki-kun?”

Why are you getting involved with me after all this time? <<less

That summer afternoon, spent beside the being who had become the heaviest in my world, with the verdure of the season deepening within the confines of my lone space, self-isolated from others. Solitude was no longer an option for me. A life without Woonu only promised loneliness.... more>>

I lost my family and experienced the loneliness that lingered in their absence, living a lonesome life without holding anyone close to my heart, stewing in my solitude. Loneliness and solitude cannot coexist. Only those who have chosen solitude know of this truth.

Solitude is a blank, and loneliness is a dearth that seeks to be filled. Because solitude is closer to nonpossession than it is to resignation, while loneliness is like a jar with a leaky bottom. That imperfectly solid blank of mine, built from my fleeing of loneliness, became desperate to contain a whole being.

Woonu, having felt the rain at the tip of his fingers, arm stretched beyond the eaves, suddenly straightened his legs and leaned his upper body forward.

“Huh? A green frog!”

“Where? Are you sure you didn’t see wrong?”

“There, over there! Oh, oh, it’s jumping!”

“Oh, there really is one.”

“Where did it come from? Has it always lived here?”

I quietly gazed at the side of his face, his mouth agape with a bright smile adorning it.

Where did you come from? Where did you come from for it to feel as though you’ve always been here? <<less
