《Wandering Soul》Chapter - 11 - Departure from Deinir

Departure from Deinir
I have rented a room at the inn and now I can finally sleep……nah.
I can’t sleep and for now I’m not enough bored to find a way and do so.
A lot of things happened within a day…I beat an asshole…two times…found 4 pretty ladies…And I will travel with 3 of them to the capital.
Now is the time to solve a vital (I am dead) problem…my impotence…
I can try to make a body, but I think that it’s too soon for that. I don’t even know if it’s possible to make one, and there are quicker methods…
I don’t need a new body for now, what I need is the ability to feel. My mind can think of several things at once…maybe I can force myself to feel things, even if this means that my tough process will probably become more slow.
It’s not like I need to feel constantly anyway, just when needed.
This is a valid solution to creating a body, but there is a big problem…
I don’t touch or move things directly… I coat my skin with a force field to move object more easily.
There are two possible solutions to this:
1- Since I’m probably what you could call an extra-dimensional being, I may have the ability to force myself into this plane of existence, gaining the ability to directly interact with the physical plane.
This method is very risky since I don’t know the downsides and I have no idea on how to do it. This method is difficult and useless since it will probably just weaken me.
2- I’ll make my force field more flexible, giving it the consistency of human skin, then force my mind to make me feel the sense of touch. This approach is more easy, I will just need a little of time to do it.

The only downside is that if I were to be struck with a force superior to the resistance of my force field, it will pass trough me and my abnormality will be exposed.
The winner is…NUMBER 2!!!
Today is the day of my departure from Deinir.
I managed to make my force field very similar to skin, other people may feel it a little unnatural tough since it’s still too smooth to the touch.
I’m still working on my sense of touch and I managed to feel surfaces. However I can only feel the 7% compared to when I was alive.
It’s better than nothing…
I headed to the guild early in the morning to register in the girl’s party…beating a asshole on the way. I then gave my farewells to Lala and departed together with Miki, Elise and Aila.
We met with the city lord’s daughter in front of the city gates.
Her name was Viviane von Deinir, she was a beautiful girl 14 years old, with short azure hair and blue eyes. She was a little smaller than Miki.
I was expecting her to be a snob noble lady, but she seem to be a very quiet and shy little girl. She even blushed when I greeted her…another loli no… please…
She was accompanied by 2 guards, 1 old butler that will drive the carriage, his name was Alfred I think, and Daisy, a personal maid with black hair tied in a ponytail.
Are all the people in this world beautiful or what?
We will reach the capital in two days… if nothing unexpected happens…
I'm baaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaack!!! This chapter is a little short, but I'll post the other in 3 hours (i have to study) and another one in 4,5 hours (more or less)
For the extra you'll have to wait until tonight.
I know that some of you are waiting for the meeting between Bionca and Caligo, but... read carefully!!! She is in the Holy State of watever(i forgot) while Caligo is in the Kingdom of ...
You will have to wait for their reunion.
But DON'T FEAR!!! I'm single!
MWAHAHAHAHAHAH

Esper: Search for Power
Dan Martin has a good life. He's respected at his job, and enjoys his work. He is close to his family, and they love and support him. With engaging hobbies, relative financial security, and freedom to learn and pursue his interests, Dan is happy. So it's not particularly welcome when he's selected by an inscrutable and seemingly omnipotent System as a test subject. The downsides: All of this is insane and by any rational analysis he's gonna die. The upsides: Super powers, a cure for a physical disability that had limited him, and above all, so very much to learn (for as long as he can avoid dying). I am very much a beginner as an author, and any feedback or suggestions on how to improve would be deeply appreciated. Chapter releases should be daily for the first two weeks and sporadic after that as I use up my buffer. Please consider this work as a rough draft subject to revision and/or retcon. It is not only my first attempt at original story telling, but at world building and RPG style system design. The latter has been very difficult, even drawing on the brilliant work of many RPGs and LitRPGs for inspiration. Thank you to any willing to give a new story and a new writer a try!

NOVA INTERIT.US
It's 2063, and the town along with much of the nation are in disarray. The decay started years before the Great Event. Our town still had hope thanks to the five families, who'd created a blockchain based water distribution system for the locals, a valuable secret hidden from the Global Water Commission and their network of mercenaries. Earlier in the mid-2040's, right after the state secessions of Idaho, Montana, and Texas, the Global Council of Water Commissioners made their deals and moved into towns throughout the country. They called it "the integration." The Commission and their contractors integrated with municipal water departments, using their organized network to invade like parasites on local services. It all coincided with the 29th Amendment to the United States Constitution, later referred to as the Regional Trident Plan. Nova is a story about survival, power structures, the turning of relationships, and the networking between people and the systems to which they belong. It’s about A.I. blockchain possibility, and its potential for human betterment versus our detriment. It’s about the question of whether or not we need to be saved from ourselves, and by who or what? The Great Event at the end of the first chapter might just be what actually saves us. The epilogue will take place in 2517. This scene is fully sketched and the full arc of the novel is set. I expect to finish Nova Interitus by summer of 2023. This is realist hard-sci-fi dystopian fiction. I hope you find Nova to be a challenging and consuming story. This is not something I planned to write. It all came to me in a dream and I haven't been able to stop writing it. This Royal Road posting is basically a beta test with chapters and drafts to get some feedback and see if there's any readership for this narrative. For the full experience read Nova on Substack. I will be narrating a podcast version later this year there. https://novainteritus.substack.com/
