"Are you ok?" Cynthia asked
"Don't worry, I'm fine" I chuckled
"Your body..." the long-sleeve I wore were burned exposing my upper body, she was clearly shocked by my armor
"This...I can't really explain now but I will in the future" I quickly said but
"Aren't we going on an adventure together? please...trust me a little" Cynthia smiled
I only kept silent, normally I would brush off what she said but why? why do I feel like this?...
'Warning, Zeno! you're emotions..' Lilith only spoke those words
'Hey, Zeno we're a team, right? trust us a little' She was standing there by the door, Her voice ever so sweet and gentle, I only remembered her by her voice because I never bothered to look at her face even though we were in the same platoon...I'm having flashbacks of my past...
'I..I'm so sorry...' I tried to reach out to her but she was walking too fast,
'Zeno, Life is not such a cruel thing you know...' those were the words she said before I was pulled back to reality by Cynthia's voice
"Zeno...I really don't want to force you to say it, it's fine please forget what I said" Cynthia said with a lonely expression on her face, she's just like me... alone in this world... she lost her family, her everything while I was tossed into this time with only Lilith
"Cynthia... promise me, whatever you see...you will only keep to yourself.." I looked straight into her eyes,
"I promise!" Cynthia replied
"Okay then" I slowly took off my mask and showed he my face
"...You...you're not human?" Cynthia asked in shock
"I'm half human..."
"Half?"
"The other half is something I still can't explain but I promise when I get enough information I will properly explain it to you" I still lack information in this world

"Then.. the lightning was.."
"I run on energy that the lightning generated"
"Mana?"
"No... but it's similar to mana"
"Then...aren't you a golem?"
"Golem?"
"Artificial life forms created with hard materials such as rock, steel, and other stuff. They have a core that utilizes mana in order to operate"
"Then you could say I'm half a golem"
"I see..."
"Let's go, it's almost dinner time" I was getting hungry
"Golem's don't get hungry though..."
"Let's just say I'm not your typical Golem"
We all ate together at the guild hall, Cynthia was closely observing me as I ate. I still had my mask on, the only difference was that the lower part of my masked opened, revealing my mouth.
After eating dinner I went into my room and quickly studied mana with the information that Lilith has been collecting.
'Does the mana use up the energy that I need in order to operate?' I asked Lilith
'Affirmative, It is the same as using your skills. It uses up DK's energy'
'oh yeah, what is my energy level and DK's energy level?'
'DK has 10% energy remaining while the core inside your body has 27% energy'
'DK didn't charge from the [Lightning] that Cynthia used?'
'I took your energy level as priority over DK's'
'Then...I'll have to ask Cynthia to use it on me again, Goodnight Lilith'
'Goodnight Zeno'

'Unusual energy fluctuations detected...Running analysis...Analysis results...shows no results'
'what do you mean no results...' Zeno was asleep but Lilith continued her job of monitoring DK and Zeno
'This...I am still unsure of this so I won't report this to Zeno'

Four story anthology
[participant in the Royal Road Writathon challenge] [participant in #NaNoWriMo] Preface: This fiction will contain four different stories set up as a challenge for myself and to get better at writing. The challenge for royal road writathon is a 55.555 word goal while the nanowrimo challenge is 50.000 words. Reader suggestions is turned on, feel free to point out errors I missed and I'll fix them up! Chasing sun, napping softly: Cultivation/Xianxia genre. Some parts will poke at the ridiculousness of the Xianxia gerne. We follow the life of a magical fox monster, who doesn't like how the cultivation world works. Said beast seems to have more knowledge than is usual for normal magical beasts. In it's infinite wisdom it decided to search for the main character of the cultivation world to have a cozy and safe place beside him. Our fox will act as a "wise beast" to coast along on the main characters rise to greatness, all for peace, happiness and that amazing napping spot in the sun. The challenges for myself with this story: Writing in first person. Comedic effect between talking vaguely and sounding wise. The cost of heroism: A story more centered around fights and mental health of hired mercenaries/heroes. The world is infected with an eldritch corruption. Humans are trying their best to explore and clear out wilderness and the dungeons hiding in them to establish new cities. Lords seek for hired hands to do the professional work. Thanks to the setting, the story will show how awful pasts are the norm and how pragmatic people became thanks to that. People exchange their sanity for riches, fame and gods acceptance. Interpersonal relationships change drastically and quickly. The challenges for myself with this story: Writing grim scenes/imparting a feeling of how grim the world is. Writing fight scenes. Showing different mental states. Describing their influence on people during fights, walks or even after successful or failed campaigns. Who will be the next powerhouse? : A story about a gaming show, it's host Staan and the different participants. Stereotype characters, stereotype backstories, silly challenges and quizzes. The winner of those challenges gets powerups for their power system. Be it magic, ki, psychic power or anything else imaginable and unimaginable to reach the power of gods. The challenges for myself with this story: A softer tone for storytelling. Making the reader smile and enjoy themselves. A different try at slice of life story. I was left behind on earth as my family conquered another world and enjoys riches, but that's okey because I got a cheat too! : Stereotypical Isekai story parody twisted into an Urban Fantasy story. The challenges for myself with this story: Writing over the top and overdramatic scenarios/scenes Writing in first person. Walking into stereotypical scenarios and making them more dramatic/giving them a twist. Different type of humor.

Mindfulness
"Mindfulness? What do you mean Bradley?" I was speechless and I wasn't able to comprehend."You already know Stef, you can understand it by the way I look at you, I'm completely aware of what I feel, we have families and I have a daughter, but nothing will take me away from you. You are my Zweisamkeit, you know what I mean?" I looked at him, he was smiling and it was the best smile in the entire world. and I started to laugh. "I don't speak German Bradley, you know." "This word describes the self-imposed isolation of a couple in love. Their togetherness creates a kind of loneliness around the two of them. And you, you are the only one who makes me feel like this. I can't let you go and I have to tell you, I love you Stefani, more than the word can say, more than anything, I'm in love with you from the first day I met you at your home, you were smiling with your blonde hair messed up, and when you started to sing, I saw heaven.
