'What the hell is he doing?' Guy exclaimed as he tried to divert his attention from the irritating noise. The sound continued for a minute and then stopped. But then immediately after, it resumed. It sounded as if someone was aggressively turning the pages of a book. 'Who even reads like that?' Guy asked himself sarcastically. The noise attracted the attention of Mai, who was sitting across from Guy, and she irritatedly stood up and walked towards the source. Guy had an inkling of what was going to…-

Guy woke up early and was walking towards the academy library with a spring in his step. Yesterday, after he recognised Markus as his personal student, Mast sent out a notification that there had been an update in the RoK. While he lay in bed, Guy checked out the new functions and found that the first barrier in the RoK had been lifted, opening up access to a massive collection of elementary to middle school level study materials from his old world. As a teacher, Guy used to spend a lot of time going…

"I don't think that was a good way to approach them…" Guy muttered incredulously. Inside, Guy was cursing his old self's luck for befriending such an idiot. "It's the last day of fresher's week man! It's now or never! It's not like some bloke with heavenly luck is going to drop into our laps. We have to be more proactive!" Jo started…

Guy was a little disappointed with his system. How come all the other MCs get some uber cheat-like skill while his is just a useless library of books? (What's the matter?) Mast was a little bummed out at Guy's response. He expected Guy to be a bit more positive because he had put a lot of thought into it. World builders weren't exactly imaginative and inventive beings. Mast had to borrow from different sources to create the RoK. 'It doesn't do anything man. It's just a library. I thought it would be… I…

Guy Larks died at the age of 33. He thought that was the end of his life, but he was given a second chance! Unfortunately, it was about to get cut short too. "URK!" Guy's eyes bulged out as he felt a constricting feeling around his throat. He was getting choked. In a state of panic, Guy quickly scanned the area around him to get a better bearing on what was happening. Next to him, he saw a chair, which was a small distance away from his hanging legs. Around his neck was a tight rope, a noose. 'Holy…

Luck is something that truly exists in this world. Regardless of how hard someone works, luck inevitably plays a crucial role in their success. A man can work his ass off through college and university and still end up working as a peon, or a man can cruise through easy courses and end up with a lucky internship in a mega-corporation from the get-go. In many ways, luck can make or break someone's future. Guy Larks was a special case. He was born with heavenly fortune - to a family with wealth oozing out…
