《Immortal》Chapter 5

Athalia's POV
That young man was really interesting. It's always fun to meet young fellows. I guess now I have time for myself and I can have some rest.
Before I could do anything more my orb started to buzz. For god's sake, who is it? Without looking I quickly picked it up.
-'' Who is it?'' [Athalia]
I knew the person could understand my tone of voice.
-'' Athalia sweetheart...'' [???]
I groaned. Why her? Why now?
-'' Silvia, what is it?'' [Athalia]
-'' So, remember that favor you owe me? So I need your help,now. [Silvia]
I groaned.
-" I was just about to take a vocation... Say what you want." [Athalia]
I had met Silvia when she was a twenty year old girl. She was actually a great marchant and I really needed something only she had. She was a super stubborn girl so, she didn't accept money. An hen I tried to use my influence she somehow managed to slip away.
She eventually decided to work for the Royal Guards. She was more of a detective and she had a bunch of spies she controlled.
-" So, I along with my teammates discovered a threat to the Zion Continent." [Silvia]
-" So what? Last time I checked I didn't belong to any specific continent." [Athalia]
-" Please, don't be like that. As I was saying we discovered that in a remote area near our kingdom there is like a group of thugs. But they are strong thugs and their leader even more. If... If you could use that amazing skill you have maybe you could infiltrate and discover more?" [Silvia]
I sighed. There has been many years since I used that ability. It takes a large amount of mana and sometimes it can e very tiresome.

-" Ok...I will do it." [Athalia]
Silvia started to shout from the happiness she was feeling.
-" Do you have a body ready?" [Athalia]
-" Yes, we catched one of them. [Silvia]
-" Ok I will be there as soon as I can." [Athalia]
And then I ended the call. Let's head to the Zion Continent then. I guess later I can take my vocations.
I then flew.
==================
I finally reached the Zion continent and headed to a local pub where Silvia loved to hang out.
While inside I ignored all the gazes and murmurs and patiently waited for Silvia. She was the one asking for help, yet she dares to show up late.
Or was I too early? Doesn't matter.
After nearly thrity minutes I finally saw her entering the pub. She was greeted by almost everyone and always wore a cheerful smile, when the truth was that she was a women full of problems.
She found her way towards me and almost tripped on her way here. For a forty year old women she was very energetic.
-" Athalia! Beautiful as always." [Silvia]
-" Yes, good to see you too Silvia. Now can we go?" [Athalia]
She quickly nodded and we headed out to a particular building for the Royal Guards of the Zion Kingdom.
We went inside and there was few people patrolling. When we reached a darker area there was stairs leading downstairs. We descended the stairs and the dark corridor lit up with the fire magic from Silvia.
After walking aome more we finally reached a door. Silvia opened it and inside was a man almost beaten to death.
-" He didn't talk ,did he?" [Athalia]
Silvia's traces of cheerfulness disappeared in an instant and her smile was replaced by a frown.

-" No, he says he is loyal and shit..." [Silvia]
Suddenly I punched the wall making a small crater. Small peebles fell of and landed on the ground. I quickly picked them up and crouched in front of the sleepy man.
I picked them and one by one and hit him with them.
I could feel the man start to wake up from annoyance.
-" Hey, stop your fucking-" [Man]
I wanted to punch him but out of nowhere his eyes almost fell from shock.
-" Goddess Athalia!" [Man]
I looked at him with a suspicious and surprised look. I turned a goddess not very long ago... And where does this guy know me?
I quickly stood up and raised my aura.
-" How do you know me, brat?" [Athalia]
What the hell is wrong with him? He looks like he is going to cry.
-" How wouldn't I know? Leader is always talking about you and showing your beautiful face to us ,Goddess." [Man]
I raised an eyebrow. So their leader know me and apparently he know I am a Goddess or he doesn't know I'm a goddess but treats me as one.
-" State the name of your leader." [Athalia]
-" I'm so sorry but I can't.. I prefer to die... [Man]
What is this? Even with my power I can't force him to speak up?
Fuck this shit, let's just get over with this.
I focused my mana at the end of my fingers and with a quick swoosh I cut deep into his throat, making him start gagging on his own blood.
After a few seconds he finally lost his life. I had to make this quickly so I turned towards Silvia.
-" Take good care of my body." [Athalia]
She nodded and prepared to catch my body. I put my fingers on the mans forehead and started to chant a complicated spell.
Finally finishing it I felt my conscious fading and black met me.
==============
I opened my eyes and I saw that I was in the same room.
The only thing different now was that I was now the man.
I quickly snapped the shackles from my wrists and stood up. My new body had already started to heal and after two seconds I couldn't feel more pain.
I started to rummage through the man's memories but I could only catch few glimpses of his Leader and he was always protected by a deep black hood, hiding his face.
This power came with a great flaw.My power would become less than my original in this body.
-" I still find it strange when you do that." [Silvia]
I glared at her.
-" I will go now." [Athalia]
She nodded and I quickly found my way out of that building and by feet I carried myself through the forest waiting to find their hiding place through the memories.
===============
Poor Athalia, she just wanted some vocations.

The Oddity: The One Who Does Not Belong
A purple ball descended from the sky, a gift from the primordial dragons, granting many races of the world access to magic. Unfortunately, humans were not one of those. During the great war, the magicless humans were nothing more than fodder, meat shields. Until one day, their powers awakened. After the war, with the ability to now wield, fire, water, earth, wind, or lightning, powerful magicians gathered to build a safe haven for humans, the Kaldora Empire. Before the humans had magic, other races prospered with it. But, within their midst, there were... oddities. People with an affinity for two elements. Each one leaving some sort of disaster in their wake. Each one, not quite fit for this world. A young boy's family, killed in an accident, only he and his sister survived the night. After that, they were split up, each taken in by a different relative. It has been eight years since the flames engulfed his home and most of his family. With his magic powers finally showing itself, he goes off to a magic academy to better learn about his newfound powers. But as he grows, something else does as well. The voice inside his head, the thing that influences his thoughts, the monster that he wish was gone, the devil inside his heart. This is a tale about connections. NOTE: The story will be slow for many of the chapters and the time will also match it, ex: goes by day by day. The time mostly will be used for introducing and adding to characters. It won't pick up until somewhere in the twenties but there will be action and events earlier on such as the missions. Just a fair warning. Order of Phantasmal Architects

Saga of Fallen Kings, Book I: The Revenant Prince
The Philosopher King once conquered the known world, his power seemingly unlimited and his armies inexhaustible. Since that time his might has slowly unravelled, and his once steadfast empire has begun to crack, splinter and devour itself. In the isolated Southern Realms, where even magic has abandoned them, none of that matters. For years it has been filled with warring kingdoms, where as many kings die to the blade as to old age, and constant battles tear apart the land. When one such kingdom invades its old enemy, the King and his heir, Prince Caden, are killed. Unable to accept the loss of his family Prince Arian is broken, and when the Philosopher King stretches out his hand in aid, Arian takes it without a second thought. When Caden wakes from death, he's different. His eyes and soul have changed, and he finds a world filled with friends who no longer trust he's even human. Suddenly thrust onto the throne and indebted to the Philosopher King, Caden has no choice but to keep going - he must finish what his father started, and try to survive the machinations of the figure who now owns his fealty. Meanwhile something beyond death stirs for him, desiring nothing more than to drag him back into its embrace. Author's Note: This story used to be known as "A King of his Own", but after some consideration I have decided to rebrand it. The first reason is that I was growing increasingly dissatisfied with the title. The second is that I have come increasingly to view this story as a 'saga' containing multiple 'books' rather than one long, continuous publication, and as I did so I realized that as I was quickly getting to a point in the story where I wanted the first 'book' to end. This doesn't mean I'm going back on the things I said below - they're just going to continue in the next book of the Saga of Fallen Kings. :) Also, be aware that I do plan to edit this at some point. Though I take care to squash out any obvious errors when I proof-read, and do simple edits in that process, at some point I'm almost certainly going to do large edits that might significantly change parts of the story. Old author's notes: This started as a completely random writing session. There was no purpose or direction, but as I kept typing an entire world began to form in my mind that I knew I had to write about. My plan is to turn this story into a veritable medieval fantasy epic that spans an entire world, follows multiple character and storylines, and takes place over many years. The story has quite a grounded, almost 'realistic' start, but many more fantastical elements will be introduced, expanded upon and become central to the narrative. I have ideas for this story that make me genuinely excited and I hope you enjoy my work as much as I enjoy writing it, and join me on what will hopefully become a truly massive fantasy epic. If you do enjoy this story please consider following, rating and leaving a review. I'm also happy to answer any questions or comments you have.

The Novel's Extra's Extra
As a reader, Cristopher always looked for things that entertained him, didn't matter what the "critics" said, all that matters was his own opinion on the novel, so he started reading "The Novel's Extra", a webnovel that despicts an author who is transmigrated to his own novel. It was fun and all with its own good and bad points, really, one of his favorites novels at the end of the journey, and that's taking into account the little fact that he didn't have too many things he was able to enjoy, not in that empty shell that was called life for him... Why could someone be born like that? With a void inside, an endless void that slowly consumes oneself... But... for better or worse... everything changed one day, the same day he woke up to discover he had the same faith of the author whose novel he just finished reading, becoming an extra in a novel, becoming The novel's extra's extra... /Ok, now that's the description I thought of... first of all, for those of you who are reading this, if any, a few points I have to make clear: 1. I'm not an english native speaker, so if you find anything wrong in the text, please let me know, that would help me learn, and I would be thankful for that.2. I'm writting this out of pure "enjoyment", so while I'll try to be constant, I'll not make any promises.3. True reason why I'm writing this is because I'm going through a moderate to crippling depression right now (and no, is not because anything trully bad and horrendous happened to me, it seems to have something to do with my brain's malfuctioning, among other things), and doctors told me to try writing as I enjoy reading. So yeah, this is more like a self-help excercise, to keep myself distracted while trying to be safe from my self.4. I choose to make a fanfiction of "The Novel's Extra" as I don't trully know how to write, and because I really loved that webnovel, though there are some points I didn't particulary liked.5. If you see some (let's be clear, really much) self insertion on this series, well, that may be me trying to escape reality, to which I make an early warning and disclaimer, and also ask for forgiveness, as I said before, this is more of an excercise, so don't take it too serious.6. I'll be a slow writer, as I have to still check a few things from the novel, even when I've read it like 3 or 4 times already, and because I know shit about writing a novel or a series.7. If you get to enjoy this, then that's good, I would be glad about it, maybe even more motivated, but I don't really expect this to be any good. Thanks to you all who may, or may not, be reading this novel./
