He's Merlin.
He's the daughter of Gimmin Diot.[…]
Then a light flashed in his eyes as he opened his head.
He took his brain as well as his donger, placed it in a bottle, before closing it.
His finger then pointed to the bottles as he seemed to be searching for a particular one.
He found a bottle with a post-it. On it was written "Interesting Assassin".
He opened it, took the brain placed inside it, placed it in his head that he then closed.

She was an assassin, famous for assassinating an emperor in the middle of a council with his ministers, without anyone seeing it. They called her "the shadow".
And tonight was going to be her night.The night of the hunt…-------------------------------Ha ha ha!Laughs were resonating through the inn.
This world still called it inn, but actually, it was a restaurant chain from the neighboring modern world, it was known as Starchuck Coffee.
While the place was indeed part of a chain of restaurants from a more technologically advanced world, it was still built locally, and the wood planks on its floor told that story.
-Guys, we need to celebrate my promotion! Everything's on me!
-Yaaaayyy!
Starchuck usually mainly served coffee, juice, and soda as drinks, but tonight, everyone drank beer, strong wine, and two particulars alcohols named with elegance: the hole opener and the intestine dissolver.
The man at the center of this celebration was the one who came to see Rald a bit earlier the same day.
While they were celebrating, a shadow was silently watching them, invisible, but closer to them than what they could imagine…
[…]
This was the last one.
-Kh!
A muffled cry was soon followed by gurgling, as blood spurt out of a throat in a beautiful arc… That ended, strangely enough, in a glass.
This glass was in the hands of a handsome man.
"The shadow", of her real name Tara, was surprised.
Not only did that man manage to hide his presence from her, but he also visibly wanted to do a show of force to her, as he filled not one, but a few hundred glasses, without letting a single drop of blood fall to the floor.
Tara instantly decided to retreat. She would rather flee than taking unnecessary risks.
She transformed into a shadow and hid under the floor, fully taking advantage of the rudimentary craftsmanship of this world.After feeling safer, she anxiously looked back. The strange man didn't follow her at all.
He was just… Drinking?
Wine?
No.
It was one of the glasses of blood.
He was murmuring some things, certainly talking to himself.
It could be something that he wouldn't want anyone to hear, which is why it was a pity, at least for him, that Tara had good ears.
-This Emperor certainly has incredible luck. No, everything about This Emperor is incredible.
Tara furrowed her brows while hearing that, struggling to process the information in that sentence, or at least the lack thereof.
-Even This Emperor's system is incredible! The blood system is the best!
Tara kicked the floor.
It was good that she was a shadow, moreover under the floor. Hitting anything could've prevented her from hearing more. Not that she particularly wanted to, as that so-called emperor's way of talking really was infuriating her.
While drinking blood, the emperor had what seemed from the outside to be an orgasm.
-Ooohhhh yeeeaaaahhh!
That…
Tara directly categorized him as a weirdo. Some people do have weird hobbies, but that guy was clearly a real psycho.
She decided to stay here for a while, at least until he went away.
[…]
She somehow had a strong, imperious feeling that she not only NEEDED to kill him but also had to keep his intact brain and sexual parts…
After some time pondering she didn't find the source of it, but she felt that it came from her entire being.[…]
Tara got back to her classroom covered in blood.
Beyond the dissection, which she expertly did without much splashing, most of the blood came from the killing itself. She had to kill that man what felt like a thousand times to finally finish him off. He was able to revive many times, and seemingly based on the quantity of blood he drank beforehand.
She pushed a button on the wall.
After taking out an empty bottle from the wall, she put the new brain and donger inside.
Tara then used a marker to write "blood system, second chance" on a post-it that she put on it.
Finally, she took the "interesting assassin" bottle, removed her body parts from her body, and put them in the bottle.
She then became Rald again.
Without losing a second, he washed himself of all the blood with one of the blood-sucking plants he kept in his laboratory.
It was already morning, and he had a meeting.
With that fly that bothered him gone, it was now time for him to go to work.
How keywords were used:
System, emperor, psycho, and kick were used to create the character that shows up in this chapter. Instead of making him an actual emperor, I made him a narcissist with a system. Kick comes in by making this character one with an infuriating behavior you could want to kick him for.
Second chance came in the post-it, and it also created some new plans for the next few chapters.

-Rald, are you ready? Anonyma felt anxious. This time, his emotions weren't faked. He really was anxious. With the return of Shem, emotions came returning too, akin to tidal waves… Powerful, huge, strong! But this was not the only reason. The only thing he was sure about was that he wasn't worried about Rald, but about his plan itself. He couldn't stop himself from reviewing everything in his head from the start to the end. Would his plan work? Anyway, Rald already learned his arts. He should be strong enough to not screw his plan over. -Yes, teacher. A teacher-student relationship was important. Even if Anonyma didn't really consider him as his student, he still needed to keep the act up in front of Rald. It creates tru
Keywords: Magical/lucky/king/super strong/assassination What is luck? The answer people give to these questions are often such as these: The result of chaos, one would say. One of the less logical and most law-breaking things in the universe, another would say. That's just a question of karma, some would say. But in reality, what is luck? Did someone decide that luck must be like that? Did someone decide that luck must be so random? Or did someone decide you had a certain chance of dying of cancer, of having a wife, or of w

As I enter my home, I find my sister already there, nibbling on a cookie in the kitchen. -You're here? -I finished early and I had nothing planned, so... -I see. I put down my stuff, and join her after-school snack. -Oh, by the way, wanna eat something particular today? I turn around. It was my voice, but it didn't come from me. Turns out that one face is sticking out from the kitchen's entrance, and it's mine. Well, not mine per se, but mine.<
Fuck! Fuck fuck fuck… I'm late! Who thought I'd sleep through my alarm clock… I hurry up, get dressed, and leave my room. I'm late by almost 4 hours. As I get down the stairs, I seriously consider the utility of actually going. I have about 6 hours and a half of courses in the day. Minus 4 hours it makes it down to 2 and a half. Minus the time to eat, and the 30 minutes to walk all the way there, it would eat 1 more hour into it. In the end, is it worth walking 1 hour in total to have 1 hour and a half of courses?

How troublesome… Lately, it seemed to be the only thought getting through his mind. As the Secretary of Defense of the United States, he was supposed to have some level of authority, but, with the recent events, things had too much of a tendency to be out of his hands. With supernatural matters that could threaten national security visible to the public, he felt like he visited the President's desk more than his own. It could almost be seen as enough to warrant the creation of a highly secure internal mailing system, if such a system wasn't deemed to be eventually broken through. In fact, it could be observed that he was seen in the White House than the cans of coke the president kept drinking. Today was no different.Volume 10 - re:D.D. (23) - Troublesome

She wasn't feeling much. In fact, both her senses and awareness were limited, for she was currently part of a gigantic mass of flesh. She was right at the center. Maybe it was because her individuality was slowly disappearing, but she had a small moment of clarity. Right as her zombie part was slowly integrating into a greater consciousness, her human side, which had disappeared ever since she became a zombie, reappeared. As her reason came back, it was hit with a truckload of memories, and she was met with horror. It wasn't just what she became or what she did, but also where she was. She could only see darkness, she could hear nothing, she could only feel a wriggling wall of flesh all around, as if she was bathing in it. Give me a word I'll make a world
A/N: I didn’t notice, but I took my break right on the 100k words mark! Anyway, here is the chapter! As the day was going, it didn't take long for me to know that nothing was done about the zombies. Seeing how difficult my choices are becoming, it is likely that my sister is faced with considerably difficult choices too. Preventing negative consequences might not be the best way to deal with things. Sometimes, doing a trade-off might be better. Of course, I have no way to know if my sister also has choices and not another form of using her angels, but it doesn't change the fact that I trust her ability to pick the best path. If she decided that sacrificing Sydney was necessary, then I trust her. While I might be a bit short-sighted, I believe she has tVolume 10 - re:D.D. (20) - The Wave of Change
Over the past 4 days, today included, which is when I usually write this novel in the week, I've not written anything. I've been a bit out of it lately, and while I've had reason to attribute it to fatigue up to now, as I was genuinely constantly tired, I've had time to sleep more since then, and I'm still not better. Overall, I feel a lack of inspiration, and a lack of will to do anything. I've still been able to pump out quite a few good chapters, but I think I reached the limit. I know it sounds sudden, but I'm going to take a break for a short while. Back in June was when I started writing everyday for my various novels, after a month, I was a bit burned out and took a break. I then was back 3 weeks later and have been since then. Originally, it was more about testing my limits, and it turned into an habit, but I still think I should still stay within the bounds of being well enough to write quality chapters. Anyway, less than a month ago, I was g
If something in this world deserved to be called a monster, the gigantic pile of flesh currently going through Sydney was definitely the one. After all, it wasn't figuratively, but literally going through Sydney. Sydney wasn't the capital of Australia, but it was definitely its biggest city by population. A position that it would definitely lose to Melbourne after the current disaster striking it is finished. If it is ever finished, and if there is any way to compile the body count. Meanwhile, the prime offender was absorbing people at an extremely fast rate, as it was storming through the city. It was rolling through the city. Yes, rolling. Whatever it was, the collective entity quickly understood that rather than focusing on
When talking about such an elusive concept as a Warp Drive, there were multiple areas of expertise that needed to reach a certain level to develop one.Of course, science fiction, which was originally inspired by science, had now long turned around and influenced several generations of scientists and physicists. And so, a lot of people already worked on it. While saying it was your main domain of research would attract scornful glares, and some did attract such glares since 1994, but working on a few papers several times in your career wasn't a problem.In fact, the implications of warp drives on the current model of quantum physics made it a pretty interesting research subject for various specialties.And this was why, when in early 2021, a paper proposed a theoretical model for warp drive, it attracted a deep inte
