Chapter 0089
A bedraggle Tempest being carried in the arms of a dressed up puppet and one elegantly handsome Cardis with wind blown hair enter the headquarters of the Eternal Spirits Guild under the intense scrutiny of a hundred or so Elders.
Cardis walked into the council room like he owned the place, exuding a powerful aura enough to cow even the most powerful of demons.
Tempest wanted to sleep.
After exerting all of her mana to fly 110 km through the chaotic airspace, Tempest awoke from the strange state she entered when she was using her powers. She plummeted to the ground without being aware of descent.
Cardis was able to catch her in time. However, her mana was sorely depleted and she was in no condition to make the rest of the trek. Tempest was able to summon the puppet Cardis gave her and have it carry her to the guild’s headquarters.
It was quite a difference from the entrance Tempest wanted to make. She wanted the enter the guild with a splash, exuding her aura and suppressing everyone with her might. She’d be like those transmigrated heroine always read about, feisty, strong, bold and so talented everyone had to prostrate in awe.
Instead she was carried in like a baby by the Mizu controlled puppet.
Tempest curled herself into a ball and hid her face in Mizu’s warm embrace.
Warm.
The puppet was warm!
Tempest was surprised by the puppet’s temperature.
It goes against everything Tempest learned in school about the nature of metal. Tempest did transmigrate into a fantasy realm, however, should the basic law of nature remains the same?
Tempest glanced up and immediately stiffen. A veil can not change the nature of the puppet to any large extent. One can tell the puppet is a puppet by just a glance. Lifeless eyes, shiny metallic skin, weird hair, squeaky joints, stiff body and a hard frame differentiate a puppet from a human.

Yet.
Yet this puppet looks better than a human!
Dark blue eyes easily mistaken for black if they didn’t take a careful look framed by long eyelashes and perfectly shaped eyebrows adorn a flawless face. Tempest can’t see it but no doubt the puppet have a straight small nose and plump lips Tempest only see on movie stars. No wait, not movie stars, but those artificially created K-pop beauties.
“Yes, that face is totally fake.” Tempest comforted herself to cover her own inadequacy. Even the 36 D cup boing boing is fake!
What is wrong?
“Ventus?” Tempest asked. Usually she can tell it is Ventus speaking to her through their link, but the voice and the sensation seems off. Ventus’ voice had always been the purest of sounds which carried a hint of undisguised joy. The voice that spoke to Tempest was like a drop of water splashing against a still lake. The ripples vibrate through Tempest’s body, making her blood surge yet calm at the same time.
I am Mizu. Mizu replied to Tempest’s question. Ever since you pushed my will into the puppet, I am able to speak to with you.
“That isn’t the point.”
Oh? The gentle voice flowed through Tempest like a creek or a brook meandering through a valley, soft and gentle.
“The point is you tampered with the puppet to make it look like a beautiful woman!”
Isn’t your intention to use the puppet as bait to attract the ire of those women interest in Cardis?
“Yes.”
Then isn’t better for the puppet to look and feel the part.
“That isn’t the point!”
Then what is the point you are getting at? Despite what you were lead to believe, I don’t live in your mind nor can I read it.

“The point is you made it look so beautiful, I look like a discarded waif next to you. Who would want to be a foil to a beautiful woman? Certainly not me!” Tempest said what was truly bothering her. Tempest never bothered to hide her true self from the spirits. Although they can’t read her mind, they know her thoughts, having been with her since her birth. She can be a petty little brat if she wants to be.
You don’t have to worry. I won’t stand out among the group of weirdos Cardis is taking you to see.
“Weirdos how?”
You’ll see.
“Tell me now!”
Mizu cuddled Tempest closer to her body and ignored the whining of a spoiled brat as they continued on their way.

Kingdom of Tyr (Original)
This fiction has been concluded as of the end of Book 1, the portion of the story posted here. There will be a complete rewrite as a separate fiction in the future to make the system more consistent and add more to the world while expanding on the events within this fiction. This rewrite will begin eventually, posted as a separate story. Colt, twelve, is walking home from school when he's approached by another boy dressed oddly, who asks him - theoretically - about living in another world. After asking some information about the theoretical other world, Colt says he'd probably prefer to live there, to get away from the problems he has on Earth. Once Colt confirms that, he finds himself in an abandoned city, the other boy revealing himself to be a god, who then offers to train Colt until he can stand on his own and live by himself. After a couple of months, the god sends Colt off for greater training, to learn to use both Aura and Mana, with his only instructions being to return every now and then to visit, and to make friends and have lots of fun. This story follows Colt, a boy named Tyler he meets in the new city, and their journey to growing stronger, having fun, and striving to beat each other. Note: this story is not intended to be professional-quality, and it does draw inspiration from many sources. That said, it is its own story, in its own world. It has never been and never will be edited. It will also have multiple PoV's, starting somewhere after Chapter 8.

The Divine Gemstones
Vol.1It's currently the year 3318 in Greenterra. After the great mystical war, humans had an agreement to stop making harmful chemicals for the environment. Kings and queens limited the outcome of Chlorofluorocarbons. Winters were back at their best, and summers weren’t as burning-hot anymore. Plants and trees were growing once again all over the world; the making of downtown urban cities and cars was banned; therefore, all the human-made chemical ozone depletion stopped. Consequently, allowing the planet to produce more magic; giving people and animals more magic-flow that they could use and inherit. Unfortunately, this massive increase of magic produced by the planet also awakened a slumbered entity that was sealed off millions and millions of years ago by archangels. It made a group named, 'Black Tombstone' whose objective is to kidnap people and drain them of their magic to recover the entity's power back to its prime. Many humans and other mystical creatures have been suffering by the uprising of this terrorist group. A smart guy named, 'Rukito' is caught up in all of this; he gets targeted by one of the members to die, since his parents are one of the wealthiest people in Greenterra, and one of the few that know how to work and develop magic. While this is all happening, a new member is adopted into his family, a mysterious girl named 'Kasai' that is distant and reserved is now living with him in this colossal mansion, making matters even worse. Vol.2He starts uniting a group of people to start the search for the divine gemstones, each one of them having a tragic but hopeful past. Cover made by me, here's a link for the high-resolution picture, (Was a bit lazy to fully clean up the drawing lol) (And by the way, it might just spoil juuuuust a little lol)
