FLF :Free Life Fantasy
The world of Free Life Fantasy is an intricate blend of an open-world RPG and Otome game, set in a medieval Europe-inspired era with occasional glimpses of advanced technology, like guns and modern clothing, though very few people uses them, Thinking guns are for weak and cowards. Despite its name, there is nothing "free" about this world; it is fraught with peril and high difficulty at every turn, with formidable foes lurking in every corner.
The game Free Life Fantasy,is renowned for its immense possibilities, boasting over three hundred possible endings. Players can engage in a variety of experiences, whether seeking adventure, love, or power.
- For Boys: They can play as male characters, leading an adventurous life, assembling a harem of waifus, and ultimately attempting to defeat the demon king. This path is fraught with challenges, and players may face countless deaths before achieving victory.
- For Girls: They can play as female characters, engaging in a storyline akin to an Otome game. Here, they can build a reverse harem, navigate the complexities of being bullied by villainesses, and experience a range of endings unique to female characters.
The game's vast world allows for virtually any role: savior, agent of chaos, traveler, merchant, or even a slave trader. This freedom of choice is the core reason behind its name, *Free Life Fantasy*.
- Awakened Individuals: Rare people who have unlocked their Mana circuit, enabling them to use magic. The rarity of high-tier awakened individuals from commoner backgrounds highlights a society deeply entrenched in noble and royal bloodlines. Yet, as long as someone is awakened, regardless of their birth, can study at the prestigious Academy for Awakened, learning magic and swordsmanship.
And that's where our protagonist,"Ethan Rothslayer", a commoner with exceptional talent in both magic and swordsmanship, represents hope and defiance against the established hierarchy. His journey is one of overcoming insurmountable odds to slay the remaining demon lords and prevent the resurrection of the demon king, 200 years after the last hero's victory.
The narrative unfolds in a world still reeling from the previous hero's triumph over the demon king two centuries ago. However, the threat persists as surviving demon lords strive to revive their fallen leader. Humanity's survival hinges on eradicating these dark forces before they succeed.
Fable—or rather, Esdeath Crimson—stood alone in the gallery, her gaze sweeping over the vast field of greenery before her. The entire landscape was a lush expanse of grass and trees, with birds soaring gracefully in the sky. Their cheerful chirping filled the air, and despite herself, she couldn't help but smile at the beauty of nature. The scene was almost too perfect, like something out of a storybook.
Her new parents had returned to their work, giving her a moment of peace. She knew they would soon have to enroll her in the Awakened Academy, which was set to start in just a few days.
Her happy smile quickly turned into an irritated scowl. "Out of all things, this game? And as a female? And a shut-in female, no less? Who the hell is this girl? After clearing this game dozens of times, I've never encountered anyone with this appearance or name!" she thought, her mind racing.
She kicked the wall in frustration, only to yelp in pain and hop on one foot, clutching her toes. "Ow! Damn it, why does everything hurt so much more here?" she grumbled, her irritation only growing.
With a deep sigh, she leaned against the wall, trying to process her situation. "So, I've transmigrated into an extra character," she muttered, feeling a mix of disbelief and annoyance. "An extra! Not even a side character with a cool backstory. Just an extra!"
Esdeath glanced around the room, taking in the ornate decorations and luxurious furnishings. "Well, at least the view is nice," she conceded, rolling her eyes. "But seriously, what kind of game is this? And why me? I was just fine living my life, playing this game on my comfy couch."
But the next moment, a wave of memories from the game crashed into Esdeath's mind. Her expression quickly turned pale with worry. "From the timeline, the academy will start in around four or five days. That means... that means all of us are going to die!" she thought, her heart pounding as she remembered the brutal events.
Lortell Mariette:The name alone was enough to strike fear into the hearts of many. The daughter of an Arch-duke, she was both a prodigy and a mid-boss in the game. Lortell mastered both magic and swordsmanship, and was the top student of the Awakened Academy. Her fame was so widespread that even the king himself respected her. But to the protagonist, she was one of the most difficult enemies to defeat.
At the start of the story, when the protagonist entered the academy, Lortell was about to enroll in third year. But two days before the academy started, she launched a devastating attack on Swann and its neighboring land, Sacturium, where Esdeath's marriage had been arranged before her awakening had called it off.
But that wasn't the main point. Lortell attacked both lands simultaneously, without warning or the king's permission. How could two barons possibly defend against an Arch-duke's army? In a single night, she massacred everyone in Swann and Sacturium.
Lortell left the academy afterward, retreating to her palace where she rarely emerged. In the game, she always wore a grim, sad, and bored expression, as if she was merely existing, waiting to die. Despite her potential, the king ignored her slaughter of Swann and Sacturium, but her subsequent actions plunged the kingdom into chaos, forcing them to eventually confront her.
And then the protagonist comes and defeats her. But even in the end, as she lay dying, Lortell never showed any emotion. It was as if she had been waiting for that moment all along.
Esdeath felt a chill run down her spine as she processed the information. Her thoughts raced, filled with dread and urgency. "The academy starts in four or five days, which means I only have two days left! In the game, this girl probably got killed by Lortell, so she never appeared in the first place," she thought, her mind whirling.
"But how should I stop her? Right now, even the protagonist is as powerful as her tiny finger. I don't even know why she would attack here; it was just a small side story," she thought with annoyance. "This is why this game is shit!" She cursed the game with all her might. What could she do now? She had no choice but to find a way to prevent her untimely demise.
Esdeath exhaled deeply, trying to release all her frustration. "Let's forget about it for now. I think I need to go to the bathroom!" she said aloud, heading out of the room. She walked down the halls of the second floor of the palace, descended the stairs to the ground floor, and turned left to where the restroom was.
As she reached the restroom, a thought struck her. "How do I know the restroom is here? Is this muscle memory from this girl?" she wondered, entering the room. It was a modern type restroom, reserved only for family members. She entered one of the stalls and closed the door.
But it was at that moment, "The greatest hitman of all time, Fable," who had never feared death or any man, felt true fear. Sweat started emerging from the terror of her thoughts. "How do girls pee?" she wondered, her eyes wide with realization.
In her past life, she had been a man. How was she supposed to know how girls did these things? "F*ck, I can't hold on for much longer. What do I do?" she thought, panic setting in.
She looked around the restroom, desperately trying to figure it out. "Okay, okay, calm down. It can't be that different, right?" she muttered to herself, feeling a mix of embarrassment and urgency. "Just sit down and... do what you have to do."
She gingerly sat down, trying to relax despite her rising anxiety. "I can't look down... I can't look down... I was a criminal, but I have my pride too!" she thought while slowly removing her panties.
She wasn't embarrassed because if she'll open her eyes, She'll see a girl's body naked, She was the greatest hitman in her previous life, She seen Counteless seductive womens and was immune to such things. But this was different, seeing a girl and being a girl is very different from what one could imagine. Also she had pride as a hitman, Also dignity of a 35 year old man, laying her eyes on a teenage girl.
Closing her eyes tightly, she started doing what she had to. The water flowed out, but it was completely different from how a guy's piss flows. This difference gave her a heightened sense of embarrassment, guilt, and unease, her anxiety peaking with each second.
Her legs trembled as she got up. "What face will I show to the world? This was the hardest mission of my life!" she muttered, her voice shaking. With that, she went back to her room, feeling more drained with each step.
Just as she entered, she started panting heavily. The short distance left her exhausted. She couldn't help but jump onto the bed, laying down and staring at the ceiling. Her mind raced. "If this is a game world, then I would have a status too, right?" she thought.
"Show what should I call it, status window?" she mused aloud. Suddenly, a message popped up in front of her like a holographic screen.
Current skills in possession:
- Sharpshooter (F) Upgradable: When used, time will slow down for three seconds. Can only be used once an hour.
- Keen Eyes (F) Upgradable: Can see over great distances with precision.
Seeing her status, Esdeath burst out in anger. "What kind of weakling am I? Even an average Awakened has stats of at least three! That means I'm three times weaker than an average Awakened!" she thought, feeling a wave of frustration wash over her. But now, it couldn't be helped; this was her body.
Deciding to set aside her frustration, her gaze fell on the SP section. "SP points?" she muttered, clicking on it. As she did, another page appeared on the hologram.
**SP (Self-Worth Points):** As your worth or popularity in the game rises, negatively or positively, you'll get SP points that you can use to enhance your stats or create skills. The more SP, the better the skill will be. However, you can't destroy the main storyline; doing so will not earn you any SP points.
**Warning:** While creating skills, there is a chance that the skill will have some drawback effects that will hinder you.
Seeing this, Esdeath's eyes widened. "SP points, huh? I guess the more I mess up with the story without destroying the main storyline, the more SP I'll get!" she thought, a mischievous grin spreading across her face as she considered the possibilities.
She then focused on another section. "What the fuck is this? Skills?, job?, aren't only main character can use skills because of constellations?, I guess that's something useful I got. " She pondered.
Her mind raced with theories. "The sword mode is locked, When will this sword mode unlock? My only guess is through a second awakening. In the first awakening, people awaken their mana circuit and become able to use magic. But many who become strong enough, when facing a life-and-death situation or emotional trauma, experience a second awakening. Their power grows significantly, and they reach a whole new level compared to first Awakened."
Esdeath sighed, feeling a mix of determination and anxiety. "I have a long way to go," she thought, clenching her fists. "But if I can just survive long enough to trigger that second awakening, maybe I'll stand a chance and have a long life."
The emotions swirled inside her—frustration, hope, determination, and a touch of excitement. Despite the overwhelming odds, she felt a spark of resolve. "Alright, Esdeath Crimson. This game world might be tough, but I'm tougher. Time to turn this weakling into a powerhouse." Saying this, She sat up and decided to do some workouts.
