Rational Stories

🏆 Official Award Winner of a Japanese Web Novel Contest! Translated directly from the original Japanese Web Novel, which was handpicked for the Select Award (Top Honor) in Kakuyomu's Official Contest, hosted by KADOKAWA in Japan! 📚 Official Award Announcement (Japanese Original) https://kakuyomu.jp/contests/kakuyomu_10theme#theme06 --- "This world is a legacy system running on an unpatched OS. I'm just here to install the stability updates." When Kazuya, a former systems engineer and corporate slave, was summoned to another world along with his entire house, he didn't ask for a legendary sword. He asked for Fiber-Optic Internet. Armed with the collective wisdom of the entire world via the Internet, there is now virtually nothing he doesn't know. He has zero interest in "grand adventures." He'd rather stay inside his magically-transported home, drink ice-cold cola, and solve the Kingdom's greatest crises via remote work. By treating every disaster-from collapsing infrastructure to "ancient curses"-as a series of logical bugs, he optimizes a world that relies far too much on fickle magic using modern systems thinking. While he "works" from the comfort of his sofa, his black cat Tama-who is secretly the Legendary Savior, Tarmane-is busy "deleting" any hardware threats (monsters) that dare disturb her owner's Wi-Fi signal. The people call him a "Transcendent Sage." The Knights call his instructions "Divine Logic." In reality, he's just a lazy optimizer who knows that in any world, information is the ultimate weapon. An intellectual Isekai comedy where the greatest miracles aren't performed with wands, but with a perfectly executed patch. --- **Note from the Author:** This is the official English version of an original Japanese web novel, currently on going in Japan. New episodes will be published here sequentially as the translation is finalized.

He was selected for Neurovia because of how his brain works. He's starting to wonder if that's a good thing. When Julian Reyes gets selected in the Neurovia Institute, an elite program offering direct neural integration through an experimental implant called Catalyst, he knows his family can't afford to turn it down. What he doesn't know is what Neurovia is actually selecting for. Or what already integrated students are becoming. Catalyst doesn't give you new abilities. It amplifies what's already inside you. For Julian, that means pattern recognition so fast it feels like instinct. For Mateo, probabilistic thinking that starts to feel less like insight and more like fate. For Aisha, the ability to read people so precisely that awareness and manipulation stop being different things. They arrived as strangers. They're becoming something harder to name. But they're not the only ones in the building. And the people who got there first have had time to decide what to do with what they've been given. What do you become when the gap between who you are and who you could be suddenly disappears?

It has been five years since the incident. Life is not the same as it once was. Everyone struggles to find their way. Words alone do not console the trapped spirits, they need something more.

A rationalist's descent into the unprovable premises that underlie every expectation of the future - and the creeping realization that the faith sustaining them may be a comforting, necessary lie.

Sometimes mathematics can teach you a thing or two about real life, if you just extrapolate things in the right context in to the real world. Extrapolation would actually mean stretching your estimation beyond the original observation and by that means extrapolation in itself is a very mathematical word that has extrapolated itself in to the lexicon of real world .

Everything about Literature, Non Fiction, Real Story, Fact around really happened.

Musings of an overthinking idle mind.

Jin wakes up to a strange girl passed out in her room, all her possessions stolen, and... in the future? Her civilization has fallen to ruin and now people are calling her a cleric? She's a mage! Even the sky looks different now. What happened? How long was she gone for? Will she be able to get any of her magic items back? Who or what are these alleged gods everyone is always talking about? The answer everyone keeps telling her to everything is "the gods did it," but she has little faith in this idea.

"I shouldn't talk to anyone. I'm evil. I shouldn't exist." What if those thoughts were right? "Everything and everyone in the world is conspiring to make sure I never get to do anything meaningful or interesting." What if you weren't paranoid? What if changing your life did mean the end of the world - literally? - Well, I'm evil, so it's not as if it'd be weird for me not to stop wanting it. - Ha ha. Good thing that'll never happen... right? : A modern fantasy world. An ancient mystical war. Love: 2D and... 3D? Human failures to connect, colliding unpredictably. A cosmic evil almost perfectly sealed away - in his room...

You are… Rational The way you chose to end these stories show that your personality is predominantly rational. Your dominant personality traits are: flexible, focused, intuitive, adaptable, assertive, honest, and balanced. You have the skill to see things from multiple perspectives at the same time, which makes you a fantastic conflict mediator. You’re open and warm, but can shift to thinking objectively when needed, putting feelings aside. You tend to enjoy living in balance, a state that you can always get back to even in this chaotic world!

This little write up will explain you why this ugly war still exists.
