My Isekai Life in Hard Mode Prologue
Late into a summer night, powerful wind gusts swept inland from the ocean, carrying a chilling coldness.In a quiet, desolate neighborhood, a couple walked side by side, their discontent palpable.Suddenly, under the streetlight's glare, the girl came to a halt, delivering a startling message to her disheveled companion before he could fully turn around."Ryoshu... I'm sorry, but... it's over between us."The already frigid air seemed to drop a few more degrees at her words, sending a shiver down his spine.Caught off guard by the sudden events, Ryoshu struggled to find words, his throat constricting with the weight of his emotions.His expression shifted from confusion to disbelief, breaking the silence of the serene night with a heavy sigh.Attempting a forced smile, he managed to convey his heartfelt farewell:"I hope you find someone who truly deserves you."Adapting perhaps too quickly, he hurried away, leaving the girl alone with her thoughts in the melancholic night.Unaware of
My Isekai Life in Hard Mode Chaos
Ryoshu is still trying to wrap his head around what just happened. Somehow, he's ended up in the world of Rainfall Disorder, the game he's been playing for over five years.After waking up in this strange place, Ryoshu's first instinct is to figure out when his memories stopped."Okay, so if I remember correctly, I deleted the game yesterday before going to bed. And when I woke up, boom, here I am. Did I get transported while I was asleep?"He scratches his chin, deep in thought. Eventually, he comes up with a wild idea."Could it be that I've reincarnated into this world?"Realizing how absurd it sounds, he gives himself a little slap. Rubbing his cheek, he continues pondering."Let's say that hypothesis is true! It still doesn't quite add up."Being inside his house makes the whole thing seem even more implausible."Maybe a bunch of trucks crashed into the house... Or perhaps I had a stroke?"Considering his lack of exercise and unhealthy eating habits, the stroke theory seems somew

RC, short for Reunion Coin, is humanity's official currency managed by the Reunion Corporation in partnership with the Government. In the real world, one RC holds the same value as one USD.Ryoshu, now realizing his dire financial situation, hurriedly sketches out plans to earn money in the future."Only a hundred dollars... But I need much more..."He's acutely aware that Spiral Academy's tuition fees are exorbitant. To put it into perspective, a loaf of bread costs around 1-2 RC, while basic rent is about 1,500 RC per month...So, while most assume tuition fees are around 10,000 RC per year, the actual cost is a staggering 80,000 RC annually—eight times higher. It's an insurmountable sum, especially for someone practically penniless like him.Thankfully, tuition fees are split into two payments: at the beginning and end of the school year. But failure to pay will lead to debt and potential legal consequences.Without anyone to support him, Ryoshu faces the grim prospect of imprisonm
My Isekai Life in Hard Mode Underground Market
The space around Ryoshu suddenly fell deadly silent. He guessed it was because no light was reaching his tightly shut eyes."So, instant teleportation now?" he thought. Though eager to open his eyes, the sensation was like riding a roller coaster blindfolded, making him hesitate. He could only feel a dizzying sensation.He had expected the teleportation process to be as quick as in the game, but maybe the developers had made many changes in this upgraded version. As soon as he finished teleporting, he heard the bustling noise of the crowd, including footsteps, haggling, and bickering.Black Market attendants would teleport customers into random spots amidst the crowd and give them a bit of invisibility magic upon arrival to avoid being tracked.When he opened his eyes, an underground marketplace sprawled before him. It wasn't littered like a typical slum, but the haphazard decoration of small stalls gave it a chaotic and unplanned look, quite unlike any slum. Customers passed each oth

"Clang!"The metallic collision reverberated through the underground cavern. The knife flew out of his eye and clattered onto the heap of weapons strewn across the floor, adding another sharp sound to the cacophony. It was this noise that brought Ryoshu back from the brink of death.Suddenly, Ryoshu's heart surged with a newfound vitality, like a jolt of life had been injected into his seemingly lifeless body. Only then did he realize old man Atsuta had appeared beside him.And when had he acquired the chubby form of a three-colored fur cat perched on his shoulder? Ryoshu couldn't comprehend what had just transpired, and before he could make sense of it, the old man was standing right before him.He looked into the cat's eyes for insight, but its indifferent gaze offered little help. 'Well, at least it's cute... though a bit chubby.'Somehow, Ryoshu sensed a hint of fierceness behind its recent contemplation.'It's not just an ordinary cat, is it?' Before he could finish his thought,
My Isekai Life in Hard Mode Uncovering the Enigma
"I must be losing it..." Ryoshu muttered as he glanced at his wristwatch. Status Update:- Name: Amemura Ryoshu- Race: Human- Level: Unranked- Stats + Mana: Non-existent + Primary Stats: - Strength: 12.25 (F-) - Endurance: 11 (F-) - Agility: 11.5 (F-) - Intuition: 15.3 (F) + Secondary Stats: - Charisma: 10 (Unranked) - Recovery: 10.15 (F-) - Intelligence: 18.8 (F+)From now on, Ryoshu reckoned, he wouldn't even need the darned wristwatch. It was invisible to others anyway, so he could use it whenever he pleased."But... I still need it to check the time and for school notifications and social media," Ryoshu pondered. After a moment's reflection, he decided to hold onto it. Those features might come in handy at Spiral Academy."Yeah, I'll hold onto this watch a bit longer. I'll upgrade to a better one," he resolved.Looking back at his stats, Ryoshu couldn't help but sigh. "Unranked... Figures."Aside from his average Intuition and Intelligence, hi
My Isekai Life in Hard Mode Trial of Cunning
Recalling the urgent red alerts, Ryoshu hoped they indicated something different. However, he remained optimistic and stubbornly attempted once more despite knowing the futility of his efforts."Damn it!""So... all glitches are now limited to single use, huh?!"Initially, he had planned to exploit glitches to gain power swiftly. Yet, the System's ability to swiftly rectify glitches thwarted his strategy entirely."If only I'd known earlier, I'd have headed straight to an SSS+ Ranked Shrine..."Regret painted Ryoshu's face. Wasting one of the game's most valuable glitches was understandably regrettable."Well, what's done is done. Can't undo it now," he muttered, though regret lingered.The two skills would greatly expedite his training, particularly Lightning Reflexes, which are invaluable in any battle. Additionally, the Premonition of Death skill boosted his chances of survival.Moreover, various avenues existed to upgrade abilities in the game, with many unused glitches remaining.
My Isekai Life in Hard Mode The Awakening of Potential
Initially, Ryoshu felt the same as usual. But before long, the pain surged, intensifying almost tenfold with his heightened senses.Clenching his teeth, he used his blood to etch strange symbols onto the statue's surface."QWYUOPLKJHGFDZXCVM."Quickly, he tore the four-leaf clover into shreds, placing three pieces atop the statue."A new temporary effect activated!All your current attribute points will merge into one specific attribute of your choice for a minute.You've opted for Adaptation as your secondary attribute.Warning: All other attributes will temporarily drop to 1 for survival."Suddenly, Ryoshu felt a strange weakening in his body. The already dark cave seemed more ominous, adding to his unease as his legs nearly buckled, forcing him to his knees.At that moment, Ryoshu struggled to even hold onto anything. The sense of helplessness now felt worse than his breakup with his girlfriend. The memory of her with her new partner on that fateful night made him shudder.We are a

Case Closed
Charlotte's sigh was heavy with the weight of her disappointment. Her eyes locked onto the paper she held, searching for hidden meaning in the inked numbers. The quiet room seemed to echo with her despondence. Her brows knitted together, and her lips pursed in a faint frown. "I only got 200 points... so I'm ranked 13th," she murmured, her voice barely above a whisper, each word laced with a palpable sense of frustration and regret. "Katia got 235 points and is ranked 11th."Ever attentive to his friend's emotions, Haruki moved closer, his expression softening with empathy. His blue hair fell into his eyes as he leaned in, a small, comforting smile on his lips. "You both were so close, weren't you?" he said, his tone gentle and encouraging. "If it hadn't been for those demon worshippers at the end, our whole group would have made it into the top 10.Charlotte's gaze shifted from the paper to Haruki, her mind replaying the chaotic events of the competition's final moments.

The script of the game
"What on earth is going on?" he muttered, utterly bewildered by the sight before him. The scene was so unexpected that it left him momentarily stunned. Although he lacked the courage to step inside, his curiosity got the better of him, and he cautiously peered in. Just at the entrance of the dormitory, Haruki and Charlotte were deeply engrossed in an unusually intimate conversation, their heads close together, sharing words he couldn't quite hear."They look so close... why does this scene seem so familiar?" he thought, a profound sense of déjà vu washing over him. The familiarity was unsettling. "This is the scene right after that cold, unfeeling guy Midnight—supposed to be a Star student—challenges the academy."Reflecting further, he realized, "Because I've temporarily taken his place, now everything is unfolding as it should... according to the script of the game Rainfall Disorder."As he stood there, lost in his thoughts and trying to piece everything together, a group of other

Freedom
"See you later... but... next time, please don't pull on someone else's shirt like that..."At that precise moment, it seemed that the petite angelic girl had just realized she was clutching the hem of Ryoshu's shirt. Her eyes widened in sudden awareness, and she quickly let go as if the fabric had burned her fingers. What stood out most in this scene was the incredible proximity of their heads. Their faces were so close that even the slightest movement could have resulted in an undeniably awkward situation, almost as if the air between them had thickened with tension.Ryoshu's mind raced, struggling to process the sudden nearness. The image of a tomato was the only thing he could conjure to describe Luna's face, which had flushed a vibrant, almost luminous shade of red. Her cheeks seemed to glow with embarrassment, and he could practically feel the heat radiating from her skin.This moment was incredibly challenging for someone like Ryoshu, who was acutely sensitive and easily flust

"Instead of paying for tuition right away, I'll invest in the shares of potential guilds with promising futures," he mused aloud, his eyes shimmering with a glint of ambition. Securing financial growth through guild investments excited him; it seemed a wise move in a world where connections and wealth often determined one's success. "And if I gather enough goods, I might even consider starting a small business in the Trading Guild."The thought filled him with a sense of purpose and hope. He could already see the possibilities unfold before him—ventures that would bring wealth and establish his reputation in the bustling city. Money, he understood, was not merely a tool for survival but a powerful key to opening doors to numerous opportunities and connections.In the quieter corners of his mind, the stark reality of his ambitions loomed large. "In the future, the amount of money I'll need is no small sum," he murmured, his tone shifting to one of sober reflection. Supporting the ta

The bank
Upon hearing the alarming beep of the error sound, the saleswoman immediately hurried over. Her steps were quick and purposeful, a clear indication of her concern. As she approached, she leaned closer to the counter, her eyes searching for the source of the problem, and asked, "Are you out of money, dear?"The young man, visibly flustered, responded with a slight tremble, "No... please wait a moment. It seems there might be an error." His fingers moved swiftly over the device, trying to troubleshoot the issue with an almost palpable urgency. Sweat began to form on his brow as he frantically tried to resolve the situation.Standing right beside Ryoshu, the saleswoman scrutinized him with a look that betrayed her suspicion. Her eyebrows knitted together, and her lips pressed into a thin line as she tried to decipher what was going wrong. Her eyes darted between Ryoshu and the device, seeking any clue that might explain the unexpected error.Ryoshu felt the weight of her gaze bearing do

Insufficient funds for transaction
"Ryoshu... What are you looking at out there?" Charlotte called out to him, her voice tinged with concern after he had been silent for an unusually long time.Startled from his thoughts, Ryoshu turned towards them, his face pale and eyes wide as if he had just seen a ghost. The unsettling expression made both Charlotte and Haruki exchange worried glances.'Could it be... these two?' Ryoshu wondered internally, his mind racing. 'Is it because they know me or because they are actively engaging with me? If that's the case... I need to come up with a plan quickly. These scenes are making me sick!!!'Desperately trying to compose himself, Ryoshu quickly blurted out, "Oh, um... I saw a white cat passing by, but it's nothing special." He cringed inwardly, realizing it was one of the lamest excuses he had ever concocted.Charlotte raised an eyebrow, her curiosity piqued but not fully satisfied. "A white cat, you say?""Yeah," Ryoshu stammered, nodding a bit too vigorously. "It just caught my

Lost Control
"Wow, looking over this list again, it's clear just how impressive Amemura is. He scored an incredible 600 points, outpacing Midnight by a substantial margin of 100 points!"Ryoshu'sRyoshu's friend exclaimed, eyes wide with amazement as they reviewed the freshly printed results. The numbers were still crisp on the page, highlighting Amemura's name at the top with a bold score beside it. Ryoshu, however, seemed preoccupied as he fumbled with a newspaper he had just picked up."This... just came out... I didn't have a chance to hear the scores earlier, but... it doesn't," Ryoshu muttered, his voice trailing off as he opened the newspaper. He was soon engrossed, his eyes moving methodically across the columns of text. Despite his initial nonchalance, he found himself compelled to read each word meticulously. A sense of helplessness washed over him as he realized he had no choice but to absorb every detail. The weight of the information bore down on him, making him feel like he was being

"Well, I only got 200 points, so I'm ranked 13th. But Katia got 235 points and is ranked 11th," Charlotte sighed, her eyes scanning the paper in her hand with a mix of disappointment and resignation.Seeing the sadness on his friend's face, Haruki felt a pang of empathy and immediately sought to comfort her. His voice was gentle yet filled with a determination to lift her spirits."Both of you were so close, weren't you? If it hadn't been for those demon worshippers causing trouble at the end, our whole group might have made it into the top 10," he said, trying to inject positivity into the situation.Charlotte nodded slightly, appreciating his effort but still feeling the sting of their narrow miss. "I'm not so sure about that... but we should still celebrate the 2... no, now 3 of us who made it into the top 10! Maybe we could go out for dinner tonight... have a little party or something?"As she spoke, Charlotte absentmindedly twirled a lock of her shiny golden hair around her finge

They walked through it unharmed, and not only that, they managed to carry on a lively conversation, smiling as if they were taking a casual stroll. The air was filled with their laughter and light-hearted banter, starkly contrasting the tense situation at hand. "Do you think we'll be alright?" one of them asked, their voice tinged with curiosity and concern.Ryoshu's mind was racing. He vividly remembered the second scene, every detail etched into his memory, and knew he had to act swiftly. The weight of urgency pressed down on him, his thoughts a chaotic whirl as he considered the implications. "I hope the scene hasn't progressed too far… I need to hurry…" he muttered under his breath, feeling the pressure mount. Without wasting another moment, he took a deep breath and plunged into the invisible curtain that separated him from his goal.The instant he entered, an eerie sensation washed over him. Once responsive and under his control, his body began to betray him. It was as if an u
