Diary

The bright lights illuminated the neat bedroom, creating a quiet and cozy atmosphere.

Every corner of the bedroom had been carefully cleaned, spotless and fresh.

The bed was made perfectly, with soft blankets and pillows that made you want to lie down and rest.

The furniture was arranged neatly beneath the lights, giving off a simple, comfortable feel.

The books on the desk were neatly arranged, and the pens in the holder were all in their places, as if silently waiting for their owner's call.

A somewhat worn diary rested quietly on the desk.

Its cover had faded, and time had gently worn down its corners, but it still gave off a unique charm—the marks of time, and the warmth of days gone by.

The book had been kept in excellent condition. There wasn't a single crease or stain on either the cover or the pages.

Clearly, its owner was deeply attached to it. They often read it and took careful care of it, so it must have contained many interesting stories.

Suddenly, a gust of wind blew in through the window and gently opened the diary.

Ahem, I'm not sure why, but I suddenly felt like writing something today. I'd better introduce myself first. It feels weird to introduce myself in my own diary, though. v_v

One day, I was walking down the street with my new Traptrix Deck when a big truck suddenly ran a red light for no apparent reason and sent me flying.

Actually, I was pretty dazed at the time, but I quickly came to my senses and figured I was probably about to bite the dust.

I immediately tossed my phone beneath the truck's wheels, then stumbled away to the side (crossed out)—no, I faced my fate with style. Y(^_^)Y

Later, when I opened my eyes, I had appeared in this world as a baby. But at the time, I was just a baby and couldn't remember anything.

I only vaguely remember that it was probably an assassination attempt. I couldn't understand what they were saying, and I didn't dare ask, but I did figure one thing out.

I was a proud transmigrator from China, the Land of Flowers. Of course, only people from China could ignore copyright and go wherever they pleased.

When I grew up, I still couldn't be sure what world this was, but I had the buff of having both parents dead and most of their estate seized by relatives.

By all rights, I should've gotten some kind of cheat, but I'd waited for years without getting a system or anything. I more or less figured it out: those fancy things probably had nothing to do with me.

Luckily, those relatives had at least a little shame. They didn't take all of my parents' inheritance, and what they left me was enough to live comfortably for the rest of my life.

After all, my family controlled thirty-five percent of this country's economy. Even a small trickle of that was enough to support me.

I just found something while looking for another item: there was still a diary on my bookshelf. Wow, I hadn't written in it for ages. This was the perfect chance to record today's important discovery.

A friend told me today that a game called YGGDRASIL was looking for investors. I was curious about what kind of game it was.

After thinking it over, I realized this was probably the game from the Overlord anime. Goodness, after all these years, I finally knew what my cheat was.

Of course, with all my money, I was going to invest in YGGDRASIL. Then I'd add a few personal touches, and when I transmigrated alongside Ainz in the future, I'd be my own cheat. O(∩_∩)O

From now on, I had to make sure to write down more about my daily life.

YGGDRASIL officially launched today. I took part in its development as a shareholder and created a special race just for myself: Traptrix.

Of course, my own character had to be the most special. After creating my character, I got a special item called A Seed of Unknown Meaning. Naturally, nobody else knew what it meant. This was a genuine World Item.

But it still needed to be nurtured. Since I knew the plot, I could raise it into the true World Item Cecilia's Flower.

This was a domain-type World Item with potential rivaling the Twenty. Unlike the Depiction of Nature and Society, which could only imprison people, this World Item could create NPCs who belonged exclusively to me within its domain.

I suddenly remembered that I used to keep a diary, so I flipped through it. I couldn't believe I'd only written a few pages in all these years.

As expected, nobody normal kept a diary.

April 25, 2129

YGGDRASIL had been open for over a year, and I'd finally found my people. Touch Me was just as upright as I'd remembered.

I also joined Nine's Own Goal without a hitch. Now I could go adventuring with them, though Touch Me and Ulbert were always at odds.

September 22, 2129

It was my birthday today. I couldn't believe everyone in the guild remembered. There were sixteen of us now. I had to think of a good return gift. Maybe I should give everyone a Legendary-class ring.

December 4, 2129

Touch Me brought us another companion he'd found outside today. I couldn't believe I knew her. She was none other than the famous "Why are you blushing, Bukubukuchagama?" herself, Bukubukuchagama.

Since his own older sister had joined Nine's Own Goal, Peroroncino, her devoted siscon little brother, wasn't going to miss out either. That guy sure had a knack for things.

I kindly gave him a tour of my World Item's domain, and he took a liking to Putika. He even asked me to help design an adult game modeled after her.

How could I possibly agree to that? I flat-out refused, and he sent me a disdainful emoji.

He said that he couldn't find a single male in my huge domain. Hey, that really got my temper flaring. I almost lost it and went for him right then and there.

But since he was still under beginner protection, I held back. His taunting only made me more determined not to help him design an adult game.

But after he logged off, he secretly sent me a few seeds.

Hmph. Was I really that kind of person? I immediately saved them, deleted them, and did everything in between. I even sent the chat logs to Bukubukuchagama.

Ah, I wonder what happened to poor Peroroncino in the end.

The cleaning lady found this diary under my bed today, and that was when I remembered, "Oh, right, I had a diary."

The cover was already moldy, and I was going to replace it and start writing in a new one. But after thinking it over, I decided against it. I could just put another cover on it and keep using it. (*´∀`*)

Might as well write down what's been happening lately. Touch Me told me the other day that he planned to disband the guild. We already had enough people to meet the requirements for a twenty-member guild, anyway.

He planned to create a guild and step down as leader at the same time. Oh, and the ones who joined later were Herohero, Nishikienrai, Variable Talisman, Bellriver, Yamaiko, Genjiro, Bukubukuchagama, and others.

Also, I'd added a game mechanic similar to Yu-Gi-Oh! to this game. Everyone could buy card packs in the shops or get them as drops from special bosses.

I hadn't expected the mechanic to be popular, but it turned out to be a huge hit. My shares had gone up by three percentage points. I was thrilled. ^_^

My birthday was next month, and the finals were on the same day. I supposed I'd have to take the championship.
