Chapter 1 A grey sword cut my shoulder. The thin line at the top left corner of my field of vision shrank slightly. At the same time a cold hand passed over my heart. The blue line —called the “HP bar”— is a visual rendering of my life force. There was still a little over 80% left. No‚ that phrase isn’t appropriate enough.

First‚ the pen is much more influential than the sword. Some may say that a pen cannot hurt anyone‚ but a sword can actually kill someone. However
