Using a Celebrity System to Write Popular Science in the 19Th Century

Alice obtained a Celebrity System, but she had no idea what a celebrity was, or what a movie was, until she randomly drew a romance film and saw, once she entered the story, everything that lay beyond the Victorian age. Alice had always wanted to become a popular science writer like her idol, but nobody was interested in articles about mushrooms alone. The manuscripts she sent out were returned exactly as they were. Fed up with everyone pressuring her to marry, Alice thought she should earn some money and run away from home first. Popular science writers in this era needed side jobs anyway, and writing novels would be no trouble, right? Why not write a science fiction novel based on that thing called the twenty-first century? Who says explaining the future of the twenty-first century doesn't count as popular science? She successfully ran away, only to be forced into a mystery romance film. Wait, the police in the future have such advanced tools for solving crimes? They have portable cameras to photograph crime scenes, devices that can scan for fingerprints to identify criminals, and they can even test that thing called DNA! Write, write science fiction detective stories! Teach people about twenty-first-century forensic science! Her new book was a hit, and after Alice gained fame points, she drew another romance film: a love story between a female team doctor and a male soccer star? So soccer was this interesting? It didn't seem anything like the soccer she'd seen. Alice finally realized that modern soccer didn't even have nets. The goals were just two posts. How could that work? Wouldn't people argue over whether the ball went in after every goal? Fouls weren't even punished, and the two teams only wore different-colored caps. Their clothes were nearly the same color, so the players couldn't tell each other apart. It was no fun to watch at all! Alice clenched her fist. First, she would start a soccer club for her own enjoyment, then write a soccer science fiction novel and teach everyone about twenty-first-century soccer so they'd all come to love it! She drew a horror film and became a female researcher. That's when she learned about PDA medium, a substance used to grow fungi! It could grow mushrooms, her favorite! Alice was instantly thrilled. Inspired by the button mushrooms grown in caves in France, she made PDA medium from potatoes and somehow came up with a modern formula for cultivating button mushrooms! Write, write a popular science article about growing button mushrooms with PDA medium. At last, she wouldn't have to write science fiction anymore! In the end, Alice became a renowned nineteenth-century science fiction writer, mycologist, and popular science author. Darcy, whom Alice rescued from a river after he lost his memory, and who used her as an excuse to fend off marriage proposals, prompting her to decide to run away from home: ...My dear Alice, I shouldn't have cut you off so completely after recovering my memory, just because of my pride. I didn't realize how much I loved you. Now I want to speak from the heart. I love you, and we are inseparable, as if you were my very soul. I ask for your hand once again, and hope to win your favor. 2025.09.09 P.S. This is a loosely fictionalized Britain in the 1840s. All characterizations are based on the original Pride and Prejudice.

New story seeking bookmarks: [Chopin] Using a God of Cooking System to Become a Painter As an orphan who had just lost her adoptive mother, Annie was lucky enough to be adopted by a countess. But she was born unable to understand emotions. People called her an imbecile with something wrong in her head, a heartless demon. At that moment, Annie obtained a God of Cooking System. Annie, whose adoptive mother had discovered her talent for painting and raised her to become an artist: ... What kind of food can instantly cheer you up, make you burst into tears in a second, cure physical ailments, or let you see ghosts...? Is this really a normal God of Cooking System? But when the countess's health worsened day by day, Annie finally cooked something herself and tasted it: ...How can it be this awful? The System was sweating profusely. Haha, it may not taste good, but at least it works! The countess, who had been fed a lovingly prepared meal and now wore an expression of pure agony: ...Annie really cares about me, but ugh, this tastes terrible! And yet the countess really did start to get better! Everyone said Annie's paintings had no soul. Since she had no feelings, she was doomed to be a failure as an artist. But with the God of Cooking System, Annie made dishes that let people see ghosts, dishes that let them see fairies, and dishes that let them see magic. She painted scenes unlike anything this world had ever seen. Everyone called her an insane lunatic, a witch who had stepped into the world of demons, but one by one, the people who ate her food began to recover. Then Annie lost her memory after falling into the water and met Chopin, who had also fallen in while trying to save her and lost his memory. They were mistaken for lovers who had eloped. Confused and bewildered, Annie used her cooking skills to save her “boyfriend,” whose health was growing weaker by the day. By the time they were found, the two of them were already married. Chopin's friend came looking for him and was stunned. “But Chopin has always been in love with a lady! How could he possibly marry you?” Chopin, his memory restored, smiled blissfully. “Annie is the person I've been searching for all along. She's the one whose meal saved me and my sister!” Chopin's friend, after tasting Annie's cooking: ...Ugh! Chopin, you must really be in love with Annie! As Annie came to understand emotions, her paintings grew better and better. But the God of Cooking System, which had tried to save her after she fell into the water, still wasn't working properly. To earn fame points and save the System, Annie decided to hold an art exhibition and give away homemade cookies, asking every guest to taste them and say how delicious they were. The guests, who ate the awful cookies but saw the beautiful paintings: ...Ugh! Truly delicious! Annie smiled. Once everyone discovered that the cookies really could cure illnesses, they stopped complaining about Annie's unusual hobby. All they wanted to say was, “Dear Miss Winter, please hold more exhibitions and give away more food. We'll all say it's delicious!” The System was finally saved. Watching the God of Cooking fame points soar, it fell into deep thought: Could a great chef who was always told their food tasted awful really be called a God of Cooking? P.S. The love interest is Chopin, the famous pianist. Since I'm writing about a historical figure, of course I'm going to make major changes to history, so this is a loosely fictionalized setting.
