《The Aria Chronicles》Pearls II
Advertisement
I felt the resistance, but it was a lot less than I thought with my physical body, which instantly made me happy as I thought the soul strings would also face the same resistance as the body.
With limited resistance, I pushed the strings deeper and deeper toward the formation, as it went more in-depth, I started to feel even more resistance, but I continued to take it deeper.
Now my soul string is only a meter distance away from the biggest Pearl, seeing that I pushed the string even deeper despite feeling increasing, and finally, the soul string reached near the biggest Pearl. I rested for a moment before I let the string touch the Pearl.
Sup!
Just as the string touched the biggest Pearl, I felt something I had not felt before something that could not be described, the only that could be described was that the extremely overwhelming refreshness entered every pore of my body, making me completely lose track of everything.
When I came to myself, I found the connection between the soul string and peak broken when I lost concentration, seeing that I smiled, thinking nothing had happened and about to scan my body when my eyes fell on the air bubble which was nearly half-filled earlier now only had few mouthfuls of air left in it.
Seeing that I immediately started to swim above, earlier I had thought barely a second had passed but in reality minutes had passed, I remained unconscious for minutes long.
If I had come to myself a few seconds late, the consequences would have been very drastic that I did not even dare to think about it. I just continued swimming up as I had already finished up the air in the air bubble a few minutes ago.
HAAA!
I gasped for air loudly as my head came out of the water; it took me a while for me to return to normal. I did not immediately return under the water; instead, I started to think about what I had just experienced.

If I right then when I touched the overwhelming refreshing energy entered my body, the next instant I broke the connection unconsciously and sank into that Oblivion-like feeling for minutes which felt like a single moment.
When I looked inside myself, I saw small, and big injuries had been healed inside me, and my body even experienced the slight cleansing, and that is when my soul string touched for a moment, not even for a full second.
That big Pearl is too dangerous, I should not touch it till I become strong, very strong before I could even think about touching that thing. This time, I was lucky, but next time, I won’t be and might even lose my life.
So I shouldn’t think about huge Pearl for the immediate future, there are other near thousand pearls for me to get
With that thought, I again created the Air bubble with my soul energy, which is twice the size I had created earlier. After creating the air bubble, I did not waste time and jumped into the pool.
Minutes later, I reached the same place, I had half an hour ago, eight meters away from the floor of the pool. There are thousands of pearls below me, and now I am deciding which Pearl to take.
I directly discarded the Huge Pearl, which in the center of the formation, also the half meter size pears, which is 1st concentric like and the line below it. I continue looking down till my gaze stopped on the fifth line, where the Pearl in the size of the human heads is present.
I instantly moved my soul string toward the human hair size pearl, the natural resistance has come but is already used to it, so I moved toward it and finally touched it with my soul string.

“Fuck!”
I cursed loudly under this overwhelming sensation as it came over and fought against that oblivion like a refreshing feeling which wants to drown me unconsciously, but I resisted the feeling and immediately took back the string before it broke away due to the loss of concentration.
The refreshing feeling was overwhelming, not as overpowering as the earlier but still very overwhelming; I know it is beyond my current capability even to think of taking the pearls in fifth line.
Forget the fifth line; I would not draw the sixth line where the pearls are at the size of the crystal ball and 7th like where they are the size of the adult fist, I directly moved my soul string toward the 8th line where pearls are the size of the child’s fist.
“Fuck!”
I said when I touched as the feeling is near overwhelming, I thought the pearls of these sizes would not have such intense feeling, but they did; I immediately removed the soul strings off it.
I looked at the child first-size pearls intently, the feeling they gave is near overwhelming but not overwhelming. If I tried my all, then I may be able to take that child first size out.
“Ehhh!”
I calmed my mind until there were no chaotic thoughts in me before I used my soul string on the Pearl. The near overwhelming feeling hit me again, but I bore it through the gritted teeth.
My torturous training had increased my mental endurance quite a bit that I would be able to resist this feeling for a few seconds. I hope it will be enough.
“Fuck!”
I covered the Pearl with a soul string and moved it toward me, which again made me curse as this Pearl may look light but feel extremely heavy; still, I am not to let it go no matter what.
So I used every bit of power I have on my soul string and pulled the Pearl toward me, as the Pearl came toward me, I noticed the refreshing ness of the water is constantly rising at the slow speed.
I am quite surprised seeing as it means the power of the pearls is strong, and formation is suppressing their power, I had guessed this when I felt their power but, still, I am quite surprised experiencing it.

Child of the Ancients: An Apocalypse LitRPG
It all started in the middle of Dante's nap. He wanted to sleep his life away, but the system denied his request. Instead, it began to transform the Earth, integrating it into the multiverse by granting everyone stats and skills. He was talented, or so the system thought. And that meant he needed to be challenged. After being sent into a deadly cavern, Dante strives for the future he's always desired. But when he learns about the secrets hidden within him, he's shaken to his very core. He wishes for the nightmare to end until something goes wrong. [The world will end in one year.] Instead of everyone receiving a relatively gentle tutorial, the people of Earth are deemed redundant. Dante makes it his goal to save as many people as he can before the world ends, but with billions of lives at stake, he might have to turn into a monster before he can become a hero. Planned updates (2500+ words): M/W/F. 12pm AEST/ 9am EST. M-F during Writeathon. [participant in the Royal Road Writathon challenge] Author's Note: All system apocalypse novels seem to jump straight over the apocalypse itself, which I find very sad. I don't want this to turn into a typical fantasy novel in about ten chapters. Instead, I hope to explore the destruction of society and how things would look if superpowers suddenly appeared in the real world. Before the real apocalypse happens, of course. There will be base building, and likely romance once things settle down. Also dragons, because they are awesome :)
