But when the words come from the youngest daughter of one of the city's wealthiest families, they become a storm that disrupts a world of privilege and comfort.

Yet, at just 17, she defied them all, leaving behind her gilded life to embrace the trials of the military—something no one expected, nor understood. While her family believed she was studying abroad, she silently built herself anew in the harsh, grueling reality of the army. Five years later, she returns to the city she left behind—her once-carefree world of opulence replaced by secrets, strength, and scars she refuses to speak of. What happened during those five years? What sacrifices shaped the woman she’s become? As she navigates the challenges of reintegration, whispers follow her every step. Her past missions are locked away in classified files, her future riddled with questions. Can Xu Jin Lin reconcile the girl she used to be with the soldier she’s become?

This wasn't my first VR game, but as always, I sucked. My favorite kind of ways to play was a meaty mage with high damage and favorably both high MP and HP regeneration. But while I tried to create this type of Avatar, l had no luck yet again. This game was way too hard! It was also almost impossible to level up like this and I died countless times. Also...I was basically an social inept and unble to perform well in a party or any other kind of group. I had too less talent to get stronger as fast as other players and the painfully low possibilities of my potential often sent me to the brink of my inner abyss. Still, I loved playing this game and kept on playing anyway. Until one day, my peace and serenity were broken by the undercurrents and remnants of political struggle in the city I resided. Forced to join the ruthless leader of the black market I had to let go of everything that hindered me to grow stronger. To find my oppressors who bullied, stole from me and made me wish to leave this game behind. On my way to revenge, my class was upgraded to a branch class of mage, - illusionist. Fit for my style of madness and an concealed weapon against my enemies. And this made me let loose of anything reining myself back. - "So, you said you were an illusionist. Do you already know what your class is able to do or shall I explain it to you?" The class instructor asked. "I can make weak hallucinations and cute phantasms." "..." he held the bridge of his nose. "You got to choose between scary and cute phantasms and chose cute? What the hell is wrong with you????" "te-he..." I tried to scratch my head cutely. "Don't te-he me, you imbecile!" he roared. "How the hell should I be your instructor when you can't even choose the basic skills that are suitable for fighting?!" "But the big wolf found the phantasm cute and was tamed." I smiled and showed him the hide of a deer I had placed in my inventory. "He even started hunting for me until I had enough and ran away." "..." The instructor was left speechless. Why did he have to babysit such a useless revenant? Couldn't he at least have someone with a bit more smartness? Why did he have to take care of this dorky mage??????

In a world devastated by chaos, young Alex awaited his 10th birthday, hoping for a simple blessing. Instead, he found himself before familiar statues of gods from his past life. Drawn to Apollo, the god of the sun, Alex chose to bind with him, gaining immense power and a heavy burden. His journey began with Alexius, a talking cat who was more of a nuisance than a guide. “If I told you everything, where’s the fun in that?” Alexius would purr, clearly enjoying Alex’s frustration. Then came Hermes, the trickster god who saw Alex as his personal plaything. “Consider it divine seasoning,” Hermes would say, grinning as he led Alex into absurd situations. “Why do I feel like a toy in your cosmic playroom?” Alex would ask, to which Hermes would only wink and reply, “Toys don’t complain as much.” Aion, though seemingly fatherly, couldn’t resist his share of riddles. “You remind me of my younger self,” he’d say warmly. “Just don’t forget to have fun—life’s a marathon, not a sprint.” Alex often wondered if everyone in the divine realm spoke in riddles, earning chuckles from Aion. Despite their antics, other gods showed unexpected kindness, guiding Alex through his trials. With Apollo’s power came visions of past, present, and future, setting him apart. Though he appeared calm and distant, his companions saw the sadness in his eyes, wishing he would open up. Alex harbored a simple wish—one the gods repeatedly ignored: a normal life.

At Kanci High School, everyone knows Sato Tomo—the boy with an angel’s face and a carefree smile. Popular yet mysterious, Sato floats through life, charming everyone without ever getting too close. His delicate frame and soft blue eyes often make people mistake him for someone fragile, but Sato hides deeper emotions behind that playful exterior. He seems untouchable, always surrounded by friends and laughter, making it hard for anyone to get a glimpse of who he really is. Emma Rose, on the other hand, is the opposite. With her strikingly foreign appearance—blue hair and pink eyes—Emma stands out, but not in a way that wins her friends. Shy, introverted, and often the target of bullying, Emma hides behind books and manga, escaping to worlds where she can be brave and confident, unlike the quiet girl she is in reality. The only person who truly knows her is her best friend, Ino, a bold and outspoken tomboy who’s always had Emma’s back. When Emma accidentally walks into the wrong classroom one afternoon and finds herself face-to-face with Sato, her world shifts in ways she never expected. Sato, with his easy smile and kind words, surprises her. Could there be more to him than the popular boy everyone sees? As Emma begins to notice the loneliness hidden behind Sato’s cheerful mask, she realizes they may have more in common than she thought. But Sato has no interest in love or high school drama—he’s too focused on his hobbies and enjoying life to get caught up in romance. Emma, on the other hand, isn’t sure what to make of her growing feelings. As the two are drawn into each other's orbits, Emma finds herself questioning not only her own heart but also the boy behind the smile. In Love is Hard, the story follows Emma’s journey of discovering herself and trying to understand the complexities of Sato, all while navigating the chaos of high school life, friendships, and her own shy heart. Will Sato ever open up? And can Emma find the courage to step out of her shell?
