《The Gods' Chosen Few》Gods' Chosen Few: Chapter 4 Not What I Expected from the Goddess of Death
Advertisement
After the bright light faded Logan began to look around in a panic. “Where is everybody” he thought. “And why the hell is it so dark” “Hello can anyone hear me?” Nothing. “Ok so what was he dead again I mean he couldn’t really remember the last times he technically died so was this what it was like or was this something else”. As he finished that thought he felt something moving towards him in the darkness.
For anyone who has had their pet dog run towards them as they get home late at night and you can’t see anything you’ve got that one second of fear like “Oh god what’s coming at oh right hey buddy”. It was a lot like that only a million times worse since he couldn’t see anything so he couldn’t tell which direction it was coming from. Only that he’d just gotten the attention of something he wasn’t sure was good to notice you. After what felt like years of waiting he heard a voice. A loud grating voice that sent shivers down his spine.
“WHO DARES ENTER MY REALM” Logan unsure of what to say just says the first thing that comes to mind. “Oh sorry wasn’t trying to break in or anything. I just saw this big flash of light surround my family and I but now they’re gone and I’m here sooooo yeah…….” It’s quiet for a good thirty seconds before he hears a soothing beautiful woman’s voice.
“Oh no is it that time already I’m so sorry I didn’t realize you were coming. What you must think of me. Being brought here against your will by me and then me shouting at you I’m sorry please forgive me.” He’s surprised by the gentleness of the voice and is trying to look for the owner but it’s still complete darkness around him.
“I don’t really mind as long as my family is ok and maybe turn a light on so I can see you and talk to you.”-Logan “Oh no I’m sorry I’ve just been stuck here since my temples were desecrated and followers killed that I don’t get much “outside” time.” Then the world turns bright Logan has to protect his eyes with his hand as he waits for his eyes to adjust.
In front of him is a gorgeous lady with snow white hair that goes down to the middle of her back with blood red eyes and in a sexy black dress. He gulps and wonders how someone that looks like that can sound so unsure of themselves. She glances at him with a slight blush to her cheeks. “Um I’m not used to guests so I don’t know if this” so motions to herself “is acceptable or if you’d prefer something else.”

Logan forgetting himself because he can’t form a rational thought while staring at her finally breaks out of the trance’s he’s in to answer her. “Ah sorry um no you look great really. Sorry though I might not be able to stop staring.” She blushes when she hears him. And then a couch appears behind her as she sits down. “Come sit we have much to discuss.”
She pats the couch lightly. Logan makes his way over and sits next to her. “So what should we talk about first. I guess I should apologize one more time since I was the one that brought you here and still yelled at you. But it’s only because someone else had broken in three times the same way you did when I summoned you about two and a half years ago.
They didn’t stay long and I erased their memories but I can’t believe they managed to get in here and the third time I was even showering.” She starts to pout and look at him with puppy dog eyes looking for affection. He laughs nervously “Yeah I guess I should apologize then because that may have been me” He looks away as he says it because he doesn’t want whatever this woman is to be mad at him but lying probably won’t save him might as well bite the bullet.
As he turns back to face her she is blushing a little more than earlier and coughs twice. “Well I guess if it was you then that’s fine and I took your memories so no harm done right”. “Eh yeah I guess so uh what else did you want to talk about and if I can ask a question.” She perks up and the blush seems to go away a bit “of course please ask away”. “Ok just two questions then. First and most importantly is my family ok? Second and this is just a small thing really what are you exactly?”
She looks at him and beams a smile “Of course they’re fine they were summoned just like you. Although I don’t know if anyone else explained anything to them before they made it to Luetania. And as for me well I’m Nyx it’s nice to officially meet you I’m your goddess.” Dead silence “Err hello are you ok did I say something strange?
Please don’t think I’m weird I just haven’t had a conversation in a while so I might be a little rusty.” A minute longer of silence “No ah you’re doing just fine with the conversation you just kind of lost me for a sec what did you mean when you said you’re my goddess?” She looks a little confused and tilts her head to the side “well silly that means you’re my champion and I’m your goddess.

You go out into the world and do great things in my name and in return I give you specials powers and abilities no one else can have. Oh and also we can talk anytime you want it gets so lonely over here by myself.” “Hmmm ok I guess I’ve got it but uh what kind of goddess are you?” She frowns and looks away quickly like she’s scared of Logan. “Death and darkness” she says almost in a whisper.
“What was that you’re the goddess of Death and Darkness?” he asks with a hint of fear in his voice. She begins to shake and keeps facing away. He starts to hear sniffling and grabs her shoulder and pullers her to face him. There in front of him is a goddess crying. Instantly his mind starts to freak out
“Crap what did I do I’m sorry ok no crying oh god what do I do?” He then puts his hand out and starts to pet her on the head. She’s seemed to calm down a small amount hardly even a bit but it’s noticeable. “Why are you crying?” She looks at him strangely “every time ...hic… I tell someone ….sob…. what kind of goddess I am the all just run off.”
She says angrily and slams her hands on the couch. Logan keeps petting her and then after mustering what is probably all the courage he has he hugs her half expecting her to kill him or something. She continues to cry but it slow eventually and then she hugs him back. After a few minutes goes bye she says “ok I think I’m alright now and thank you” He lets her go and her face is still red and eyes a little puffy but still beautiful. “Ok what else is there to tell me” he says. She looks at him again like he’s a strange machine she can’t fathom how it works. “You mean you are ok with being the champion of Death and Darkness?”
He shrugs “Well yeah I mean I’ve died three times and all that so not really a stranger to it err you and you seem nice so I don’t seem the harm in going along with this as long as it takes me to my family.” She hops up off the couch and starts spinning. “Yay wow I can’t believe it someone is actually going to help me clear my name.” She does a few twirls then stops to look at her arm as if there was a watch there. “Darn we ran out of time. Ok I guess it’s time for you to go I can’t give you much other than my blessing and this” She touches his head and he feels as if something is working its way into his brain. It didn’t hurt it just felt so damn weird. “That will let you talk to me anytime day or night.”
“Thank you. One last question before I go wait no two two more. One what did you mean clear your name? Lastly how am I going to learn how to use the powers you gave me?” “Oh that right well about nine centuries ago my follows went off the deep end and start rampaging and killing everything in sight all in my name. I didn’t ask them too in fact I tried to stop them but they wouldn’t listen.
So as “punishment” I was locked away from the other gods my family until it’s fixed. And now it’s gotten so bad all the gods had to choose a champion to help fight them off. I’ve been trying to summon a champion for so long to help me but I couldn’t find any one suitable and willing until you.” She starts to walk towards him “and as for my gifts to you well you’ll learn best by doing” as she says that she pushes him. Logan teeters and falls towards the couch which disappears and he falls through the white floor. As he’s falling and about to pass out from weirdness overload he hears Nyx. “Remember you can call anytime. I look forward to what changes you’ll bring this world”

Isoptera
Reincarnated, Crete finds himself not in some overpowered human body with the basic kill the demon lord cliche. No, he is reincarnated as a weak, powerless, and quite frankly worthless existence. Maybe his was a mistake, as he wasn't even reincarnated as a human but instead a humble and meek existence, A termite. Follow Crete as he adventures, without the memories of his previous life intact, in this New World, Honera. He trudges on endlessly with his indomitable willpower and journeys as a meek termite who is fraught with trials and tribulations; as he seeks for the power to just live in peace and without the prejudice everyone seems to have against his kind. Upload Schedule: M-W-F Hey guys this is my first attempt at a novel, based on the type of fiction I enjoy, it'll be mostly slow-paced at the start as I try to work out the kinks and learn more about "Isopterans". However, if y'all enjoy it leave a few nice reviews, or if you don't, leave some constructive criticism. Both would be appreciated. I also would be setting up a Patreon if any are interested in donating to help fund the story or you can send a donation through PayPal directly. I want to create something that we as RRoaders can enjoy together. You can also access the Discord here [participant in the Royal Road Writathon challenge]

Rise of an Undead in a Fantasy World
Have you ever wondered what would happen if an undead being that doesn't know what it is like to be alive got free will? What would that undead creature do? How would they think? How would they view the world around them? Would they see life as futile and conquer the world, making it a lifeless danger zone to all living beings? Well, none of that matters, because that's not happening. Our main character is your average gamer from the modern world, yada yada yada... gets transported to a fantasy world through obscure means, blah blah blah... you know how this works. What separates him from the masses, however, are his views on ethics, and world politics. ... Oh, and the fact that he doesn't need to breathe. Message From Author! Accept?: Yes No This is only my second novel, so keep that in mind. I will try to keep the quality of the story to an acceptable level. This means something that I, myself would read. The quantity, however, may put some people off. Adding onto the whole "villainous lead" thing, I will make sure to have the character develop into that perfect little villain over time, instead of starting him out as a bloodthirsty murder-hobo. Of course, there will still be a lot of murdering and he may be a hobo for some of it, but it will mostly not be out of malice in the very early chapters. Last but not least, I have decided there will not be a defined release schedule for this, as I have lost interest in forcing myself to upload x amount of times a week. I will upload whenever I get a good idea, and take my time. That is, if I even feel like writing in the first place. Instead of taking breaks from this novel to do my own thing, I will take breaks from my daily life to post on here. Also, I'm lazy. Thanks for reading, and if you're alright with everything above, feel free to give it a read, and without further ado, have a good one! - Your Author P.S.: I will have little to no romance in the story, as I can't bring myself to writing it, so you don't have to worry about harems.
