It really looked like Simon couldn't get any more idiotic than he already was. I mean, seriously. He still doesn't admit that he and his party were literally failing as adventurers. He still think that Yuke owed him. He used his childhood friend's childhood dream to lure him into coming back to Thunder Pike. He doesn't even acknowledge his own mistakes. For real. It really appeared that he couldn't get any more stupid. Or maybe he would get worse from here.

Good for Yuke to tell him off. For putting some sense on him and for actually bursting out. He was already progressing with everyone in Clover. There was no need to waste all that. They finally have a space of their own that would act as their base of operation, as well. It was going well for all of them. And now, Clover could finally start fulfilling that one big goal they all set when they starting. They could finally start going to the Achromatic Darkness — with the permission of the King himself — for investigative reasons. Along with that, a new member comes along. Now this is going to get a bit intense.

【silent vlog】an unexpected saturday

I have a lot to talk about in each of my vlog, to be honest. But it's not easy to do that when all I want is just record a few clips enough to reach one minute or so. Even with that, I still want to continue doing this while showing parts of my life in my 30s. There's no reason for me to lie about my age, though. Maybe that would deter you from watching this. Then again, this is my real life.

【episode comment】from bureaucrat to villainess episode ⁵

This is kind of funny, to be honest. But I still love it. Kenzaburo was still trying to act as a villainess, but it seems that it wasn't working the way that he wanted to. Even his daughter on the other side of the screen realized that, as well. But I wonder if he'd be able to realize soon that his daughter actually knew about him being inside the game. Then again, with the way he was starting to become immersed in the game, that would definitely take some time.

Grace already said that it was unsure that he would be married to Prince Virgile in the future. Of course, we all know that it was Kenzaburo who actually said that if he was going to base those words from his knowledge of the game. But I couldn't help wondering if the sentiment would remain the same when Kenzaburo finally returns to his world. I wonder what would happen to Grace's life after that now that things were changing drastically already.

【silent vlog】life and writing mixing up

Life makes me crazy most of the time. So my writings were the ones with enough power to keep me sane. Of course, even life gets in the way multiple times. Not that I can help it, actually.

Chains - Chapter 2

The moment I blinked, the vision that shocked me as soon as I raised my head had vanished... just like that. And did I really hear it right?

'Help me...' She said those words. Or rather hissed them, which sent chills down to my spine.

But at that moment, I remembered something from my past.

It was about 'him'.

Chains - Chapter 1

Not once in my life had I thought of coming across this kind of... adventure. Wait, should I really call it like that?

No, I shouldn't. It was a nightmare, one that haunted me ever since it happened. And until now, those memories only made me become aware of a skill I couldn't even fathom as to where it could possibly come from.

"Natsuki, can you put these books for me on their respective shelves?"

That order, who just called me by one of my nicknames, from my boss Okasaka Shiro made me snap out of my reverie back to the past. Again.

journal entry #1929

Gloomy day almost all day. Not to mention, very noisy because of our landlord doing another round of loud karaoke. Urgh! Very annoying to the point that I wanted to throw rocks to their window and their TV. That's how annoying they are.

Mama made ube malagkit, fresh lumpia and fried lumpiang gulay today. I was trying hard to stop her from overworking herself again so she wouldn't overthink about her school friend who died yesterday. Yes, she was grieving. But she shouldn't overwork herself just to forget the pain and the fear. I'd love it for her to easily come in terms with that sudden death.

So that upcoming Hallmark movie I'm waiting for finally has an air date. It would be shown on March 15. That means, I still have to wait one more month.

Continued rewriting quotes and I managed to rewrite two pages worth. I mena, that's already a lot if I'm going to consider how cold it was the whole day. It was hard to write. But at least I'm progressing. That's the most important, I think.

I think I should continue doing Norwegian and Spanish language leasons solely on Duolingo for now, alongside Japanese. Thanks to the video I just watched today, I felt that I shouldn't put too much pressure on myself at the moment. Yes, I was more focused on learning Japanese. But I'd like to continue learning more language. It doesn't matter for now if I have to do it little by little. I just want to do more productive things instead of doomscrolling on Youtube. Now I just have to do it every day, as much as I can.

【episode comment】i left my a-rank party to help my former students reach the dungeon depths episode 4

This is the first time I realized that modelling/being a brand model would go hand in hand with adventuring. In this episode, however, I was proven wrong at some point. So the armors they used were the ones featured in the opening and ending songs of the anime. They were fancier than the ones they initially used. At least now, I have a visual of the armors that each of the girls had, compared to when I was reading it in the web novel.

So new costume was featured. But so does a new enemy. And it was a bit stronger and trickier to deal with. I mean, a creature that can pass through or destroy barriers? That's nuts, if you ask me. And yes, they did have a hard time defeating it. But this episode allowed me to see more of Rain's spells and even that of Silk. As for Marina, she just doesn't back down, that's for sure. And Yuke finally realized that he was also being too hard on himself, thanks to Rain. More moments of them taking care of each other as a team/party. Love it!

journal entry #1927

My earphones were acting up. At least, the two that I've been using while I'm in the house. Should I start buying a new one just for home use? I mean, I still have three that I tend to use whenever I'd go outside. Maybe I'll figure it out some other time.

I went to go to the market to buy ingredients for several weeks' worth of meal plan. And let me tell you, it was SOOO HEAVY! Because of that, I had to go out and head to the market twice. That was tiring. So I wouldn't be surprised if I end up sleeping before I know it. It tends to happen a lot whenever I'd go out to head somewhere in town.

I downloaded most of Maeil's videos on Youtube. The reason for that? To look at the way she edited her videos. They're all short videos and I still wanted to post short videos on Youtube even if it was about my boring unemployed 33-year-old life. Because that's the truth. And I intend to keep it that way. Kind of crazy, huh? I just want to record the things that have been happening in my life since I started doing this.

I guess this is the part where I should stop writing since my eyes are starting to droop and I kept yawning even as I write here. I already knew what that means. Good night!

【episode comment】from bureaucrat to villainess episode 4

Okay! Beast Summoning, everyone! Or should I call it hatching beasts from its egg? Okay, that was a weird term to use. Anyway, I was curious about the egg's purpose when it first appeared in Episode 1. So it was supposed to be for this particular purpose.

This was where it really took a really weird turn. I mean, a chibi Kenzaburo and a chibi Grace came out of that egg? What the heck was that? I didn't think of it that way when I saw the preview before. I was thinking maybe along the lines of strange creature or something rare. Then the screen that popped up, for some reason. And two hands coming out of it that merged those two chibi figures to later become an Ancient Dragon with two elemental attributes. A very rare feat to witness and achieve, according to them. Not to mention, the elements involved were two opposing ones — fire and water. But I guess that's the lore of that game world. They might provide an explanation to that at some point. Who knows?

The one question that kept popping up was about the screen and the hands that showed up. I mean, did the other students saw that? They were all surprised, but did they all see the same thing or only Grace saw the screen and the hands?

Okay, so that's how the first half went.

The second half was back in Kenzaburo's world where we saw what happened to him after his accident. It was good to know that he wasn't dead, but he was in a coma. That would, in a way, explain why his mind was off in some place, wandering around. And his family finally figured it out! Now they can actually see what was happening to Kenzaburo while he was in the game and while theyr were waiting for him to wake up from his coma.

Now I have a feeling that the next episode would be crazier than ever.
