Hello dear readers,
I want to express my heartfelt gratitude to all of you who have read and supported my debut novel. If any part of the story has caused offense or discomfort, I sincerely apologize.
After a year of attempting to launch a world-building project to lay the foundation for the forthcoming saga, I encountered a series of trial and error. Eventually, I settled on Lavender Girl.
Over the course of the past two years, Lavender Girl has been an integral part of my life. I've shared moments of joy and faced challenges alongside its characters and stories. However, taking into account my current circumstances and careful consideration, I've made the decision to conclude this book.
While crafting the main storyline of Lavender Girl and constantly revising it, I've identified numerous mistakes and areas for improvement. Still, I am very proud of it, even though parts of the story have deviated
After the captivating music performance on a stage that is three times wide than the herbal store where she lives, the result of this overwhelmingly popular new artist selection contest ended with Ravyn as the winner of this show. A girl with dark purple hair that was almost black even in the spotlight pondered with a throbbing heart. …This is the moment I've always been waiting for. The cheers and applause from the audience acclaim as if to thank me for my efforts. It's so touching that it hurts my heart. And above all, I hope you're watching me right now… ###### "That kid, she's done it again!" Pim's slightly hoarse, middle-aged woman's voice exclaimed from the front of the TV in a small herbal shop down the alley. Her gaze was fixed on the girl who won the music competition on TV with sparkling eyes. ###### Soon, Ravyn has now arrived at the front of Pim's store booth. The girl takes a deep breath to chase off her nervousness before sliding the door open. "Did you watch the
Three months have passed since the fire... The purple-haired girl in a sandwich shop attendant's uniform accepts the order in a lifeless tone. After that, she bowed once and walked back behind the counter. "Damn it, her gloomy face really made my appetite disappear." A regular customer who had just ordered food murmured softly. "Sorry. My friend's child, she's been through terrible things lately, so this girl is not very cheerful these days. But she is a diligent girl, "replied Gentle'Sand's owner, who wiped the table next to him. "Hmph…everyone around here knows that. But service work is service work. " "I'm really sorry. As soon as she gets over it, I can assure you that she will spread her liveliness throughout the shop and even out over the alley! " "Jeez, I've heard this a thousand times from you. But I hope you are right." Gentle smiled and continued cleaning the table. When the number of customers became sparse, Ravyn took off the shop's apron. As she was about to leav
On the selection day of Intelligence for 'Airburst Assistant'Ravyn arrives in front of the only elevator with the logo "AB" in the mall. She placed the application form onto the scanning position of the elevator platform as described in the flyer instruction. When the scan was completed, the screen on the pedestal popped up a text like a date she came over to register. But this time, the elevator door opened with a welcome message.[Identity matched: Registrant #018Your trial will begin in 10 minutes.Good luck with The Assistant Selection, Ms. Ravyn Nipha]The purple-haired girl who had seen this platform for the second time was still thrilled with the technology that was considered cutting-edge in this era, like a child seeing a new toy.…This thing isn't just for show then…After she entered the elevator and the door was completely closed, the elevator lit up and a digital letter appeared above her eye level indicating the destination.[Mr.C interview room]Below it, there is som
In the early morning, when two moons can be clearly seen in the sky...A shadow of a young girl walks down from the second floor of a sandwich shop that has a sign "Open at 11 o'clock". The shopkeeper's low voice and the torch that shone towards the shadow stopped her."Are you leaving now?... No matter how early you have to go to your new work, don't forget to eat breakfast."He handed her a lunchbox."Thank you, Gentle."The girl whose hair reflected the deep purple from the flashlight took the box and put it in her shoulder bag."Don't push yourself too hard and good luck, Little Vyn."The shop owner sent her off after they walked out to the storefront. Ravyn, shoulder-length hair neatly attached barrette in a black long-sleeved suit with her favorite black jeans, bowed to him once before leaving."Look who's privately sending her off without inviting me, even though you were completely against it before."Pierret, who followed a step later, teased her father."Huh, I never thought
Both the superpower user and the big man focused on the source of the strange sound and rushed into that dark corner.…This is bad…Ravyn, in a desperate situation, crouched down to retrieve the gun. But before the girl touched her shoe, a hand grabbed her from behind first.*Meow!!*A cat shrieked in shock, leaping through a fist and a blade that had stopped in front of it."Just a cat?"The unkempt-haired man said this before pulling two sickles from his trouser pocket that appeared too small to fit and hurling them at the warehouse wall in front of him.
"Wait, Ravyn!"Yu shouted to the purple-haired girl who was again running outside the department."You can't just go out whenever you want, like that!"…Why is she in a rush? The Airburst is about to carry out the bomber capture operation in just an hour…This time she decided to follow Ravyn.######A few minutes ago…"Returned from that situation all in one piece like this, aren’t you interested in moving to work at the building next door?"With slight
*whish..* A sound of a gentle breeze emanates from AB’s Airtech cannon. "The wounded have already reached the hands of the doctors. The research department reported that the gas chromatography analysis will be conducted again in 5 minutes at the secondary lab with the level of sensitivity adjusted to the highest level… What a terrifying destructive power it held?" Idorund, entitled "Airburst of Themeise," showed concern after the assistant’s building fire was extinguished. " Good job, Idorund. Standby ensures the reparation team security there. Your current mission is in good hands, so rest assured." The branch chief answered the Airburst before h
"Why isn't there any word from him yet?"One of Donkey’s minions stationed in the hospital is waiting for further orders from Drew.*bwok*The spectacled girl’s slender hand punched him in the chin from the side, knocking that bombing accomplice down."Six down, one floor left to go. Ravyn’s reinforcements have arrived.~"Yu sang before walking towards the ladder to the top floor of this building. All of a sudden, she heard a voice cry out in fear from above her."Gah!"That was followed by someone falling down the stairs

A few weeks had passed...Gentle surveyed the tables and chairs that had been recently upholstered in his sandwich shop. They were all occupied by delighted customers, and a sense of pride gleamed in his eyes. Pierret, having just served water to a nearby table, approached Gentle, standing in front of the counter."Dad, there are still orders pending for two more tables."She placed the order slips on the counter and smiled as Gentle started crafting sandwiches, completely engrossed in his work. Daily life continues as usual, but now, Donkey's name has vanished. People needed time to adjust to the absence of the outlaw mafia that had a long-standing presence in Themeise. They still haven't grown accustomed to not fearing for their lives or facing harm if they happen to displease the city's powerful figures. Nevertheless, with the removal of this source of fear and dominance in the city, ambitious individuals were eager t
...It's over...Ravyn sat in mournful silence in front of the intricate white coffin. No matter how beautifully the flowers were arranged on top of the lid or how beautiful the hymn prayers of the saints were, it didn't help anyone at the event feel joyous. The passing of Jamie Lysander, the proud father of two children, a beloved husband, and the hero who sacrificed the honor of Airburst as 'Falcon,' cast a somber shadow over the gathering."I owe him my life.""That was the path he chose, and I respect his decision. I can't be angry at anyone, but I'm saddened. At least he was able to fulfill his duties. Thank you for surviving to tell his story."The girl with purple hair saluted and recounted the details of Operation Sun Dog to Falcon's wife in a comprehensive manner. Through this, Ravyn discovered that his wife was an incredibly resilient individual, a fact well-known to the woman herself. She h
At that very moment, the audience erupted in cheers as the announcer officially signaled the beginning of the battle. While the aerial platform descended to be concealed beneath the arena floor, Angus propelled himself into the air with a powerful kick. Ravyn, on the other hand, kept her eyes closed and allowed gravity to guide her descent. In her mind, the recent conversation with Idorund replayed.…"Holding a position in Airburst grants that individual the authority to participate in meetings that influence even regional laws. With the organization's power and our widespread support, it's safe to say they wield power akin to that of a city's mayor. Now, imagine the chaos if an Airburst were to employ their full might against Themeise, a city deeply entrenched in shadows. If Angus were to resort to the extreme measures he employed during his regency in Aelsala, it could spark a civil war in Themeise. It's simply not worth the troubl
There was a quiz contest for superfans, offering Airburst prizes, which Ravyn attempted to answer silently in her mind. She soon realized that there were some tidbits of knowledge, only interesting to enthusiasts, that she didn't know, and she answered incorrectly more than half the time.Meanwhile, the arena in the center of the stadium had been transformed into a booth where people could queue to try out Airteches set at the lowest firepower level on inflatable mattresses on the floor. Ravyn decided to go watch Kanji and Pierret play, cheering them on. She participated in various activities until there was only one hour left. Ravyn, resting in the reserved seat next to Pierret, decided to return to her contestant accommodation room. It was at that moment when the lights in the entire stadium went out."For those of you enjoying this night, let me hear you make some noise!" *SCREAM*...The commentator ignited the crowd'
"Uh... Zamonte doubles down! Lavender takes the victory!"The commentator, along with the audience and Cemal, fell into stunned silence at the sudden turn of events. However, a few seconds later, cheers erupted throughout the stadium."Well, it seems I've lost. But I haven't given up just yet. I'll never give up on asking for your number."Cemal swiftly retrieved his Reiki crystal and examined it for any signs of damage. Relieved to find it unharmed, he hurriedly returned it to its box."By the way, that hair clip looks surprisingly similar to mine. Don't tell me..."Ravyn also noticed the resemblance between her own hair clip and the one Cemal had....That's it. A hunch from my decade of experience with girls is telling me. You and An probably share...Cemal's excitement surged as if his heart had skipped a beat."Yo
The pervert's followers were careless because they didn't think a mere kid would dare to mess with their boss. They were about to pull out their guns to protect the boss, but when they heard the name of the Resia family, those who were good at using their power to oppress helpless people ran away pitifully with their tails between their legs.*Boink*"This precocious kid, what would you do if you got hurt? You really are..."She tapped Cemal's head with her knuckles, then composed herself before gripping the collar of his shirt."Anyway, I'm glad to see you're safe."Cemal closed his eyes, expecting something exciting, but nothing steamy happened."And what am I going to do with it?"Cemal responded. Upon opening his eyes and seeing the yellow-orange clip on the collar of his shirt, the boy felt so embarrassed that his face turned a deep
Back in the pre-dawn hours of Operation Sun Dog...Ravyn's gray aura-encased arm pierced through Undre's gut, sinking in with an unsettling squelch. Black blood gushed from the white-haired murderer's abdomen, making the purple-haired girl feel nauseated at the gruesome sight before her."I've got a story for you. There once was a good-for-nothing man. No matter what he did, nothing seemed to work out, and everyone looked down on him. One day he met a beautiful witch. She gave him a crystal of happiness. It was both bright and warm. Since that day, his world had completely changed. From a good-for-nothing man to a good-for-nothing man who is happy and wants to get better. But then one day that witch appeared again and wrenched the crystal of happiness from his grasp and crushed it to smithereens. The joy that the man had experienced was gone, forever. The good-for-nothing man became helpless and unhappy, always wondering why the witch had to
*SLASH*… *Crash!*The force of the sword's swing sent Gabrielle hurtling through the air, and she collided with the far side of the arena wall."No... It can't be true."Her voice trembled with a mix of denial and disbelief, refusing to accept what she had just heard."It is true. My father's crimes are a dark stain on history, and I cannot erase them."Mirozlav approached Gabrielle, his steps measured. The audiences who shared the same homeland were left in a state of shock by the unexpected confession."What do you want from me? Why are you telling me this now?"Gabrielle's emotions were a whirlwind of conflicting feelings. The revelation stirred up memories she would have preferred to keep buried, and a silver aura enveloped her compressed air saber as her grip tightened.*Clang!*The cl
