《Sona, A Goddess Queen in a Modern World.》04 - The Scientist
Advertisement
Sona and Madison were eating toast in the kitchen while just enjoying each other's presence. Suddenly Sona felt her mother's gaze in her arms and followed her gaze to see what it was all about. When Sona was playing etwahl, she hadn't noticed, but her white, delicate wrists were slightly cut. Sona looked curiously at it, since she didn't imagine any animal that could cause that kind of injury.
As she stared, her memories activated and she realized that who had caused this kind of cut was Angela, Sona couldn't understand the reason, but as she explored more and more the memories she had acquired, she discovered that as a way to overflow the sadness that she felt, she had made these cuts on her own wrists.
Sona felt her mother's sadness and pulled the sleeves of her shirt higher up to try to hide, feeling ashamed. Madison saw it and said nothing, she felt bad for seeing her daughter in that state, but she didn't want to cause an argument now and ruin the moment they were having.
When they both finished eating, Sona offered to do the dishes. "Mom, go sit on the couch, I'll take care of it."
"No daughter, you can let me clean myself." Madison said quickly.
"I won't take no for an answer." Sona said as he was walking in front of the sink and was beginning to wash the dishes with a calmness that surprised Madison again.
Madison thought as she felt her chest warm because of the concern her daughter was showing her.
While the two of them were sitting on the couch, Sona was watching all the objects in the house to try to understand how this world worked. Unlike a certain God King who did not think about going beyond battle, she had lived a little in contact with civilization. It wasn't much, but it did help her learn a little common sense.

Wandering through newly acquired memories, Sona found a very practical device. The device was called "Cellular", in which she could conveniently learn everything she wanted to know about the world. Remembering that the device was in her room, Sona calmly stood up to pick it up in her room, when she returned, she sat down next to Madison while putting a headset in her ear opposite her mother's side.
Sona used the Internet to find the thing she liked best in life, music. First she started looking at what the songs were like on this planet, once she visited a planet that people hated music, but since her mother gave her a musical instrument, that probably wouldn't be the case here.
Apparently they really like love songs here... just like in my old world. I hope I can learn about love here... Sona thought while reading about the music.
She found the songs that these mortals call symphony very pleasant. Many were extremely well produced with several musicians playing together. The only people that Sona touched together were her disciples, but most of them could not achieve divinity, as cultivation through music was several times more difficult than cultivation through battle, as it depended not only on strength, but on creativity most of the time.
Sona was reading about some songs and remembered the song she had promised to sing to her mother. Remembering this, Sona got up and ran to the room to try a song she found.
Madison was a little sad to see her leaving, but just to see the advance that she and her daughter had today has left her very happy.
Sona arrived in the room and called etwahl telepathically. The instrument promptly floated towards her. "Thank you, my old friend. Sona said as he stroked the instrument that made a happy sound through the strings.

She had found a very beautiful song on the internet and thought it might be the perfect song to sing for her mother. But first she'd have to learn those Earth scores. Since each planet used a different style of score, Sona was used to it, and with the intelligence of a Goddess, Sona quickly understood how these scores worked.
Applying them to etwahl, she was able to play the melody of the music as if she had practiced for years. Satisfied with the result, Sona has now started practicing singing, something she had never practiced before in her life.
...
Madison was sitting on the couch watching TV happy for what the day was like, until she heard Angela calling her in her room. "Moom!"
The scream was calm and harmonious, making Madison relax even more when she listened, without worrying that something bad might have happened to her daughter. When she arrived in Angela's room, she saw the beautiful girl with short blue hair sitting on the bed with the instrument she had given her looking at her with a smile. Seeing that smile, Madison smiled back and asked. "What is it, child?"
"Do you remember the song I promised you I'd sing for you? Sit down, I hope you like it." Sona said with a quiet, confident smile.
Madison hearing this, quickly took the cell phone and turned on the camera to record her daughter, she wanted to keep this moment forever.
When Sona realized that it was being recorded, she didn't mind and waited for her mother to adjust.
When Madison focused all her attention on her daughter, she heard one of the most beautiful things she ever heard in her life.
The fingering of her daughter's fingers on the strings of that instrument... seemed magical... something only gods could do.
"# Come up to meet you
Tell you I'm sorry
You don't know how lovely you are
I had to find you
Tell you I need you
Tell you I set you apart..."
When Madison heard the lyrics, she started crying again.

Cycles of Ruin
Civilizations rise and fall. Kith build them up and monsters, led by powerful dungeon keepers, bring them to ruin. For three thousand years the cycle has been maintained by the Guild of Chaos and its endless hordes of minions who—in absence of their long lost creators—have taken it upon themselves to keep the realms of the universe in balance. The Guild has grown efficient at this task, but some among its ranks have begun to ponder the utility of a universe that has been robbed of the very possibility of change. Basil von Doom is one such dungeon keeper working for the Guild, leading an army of loyal minions from one conquest to the next; burning civilizations and sifting through the ruins in search of forbidden knowledge that the races of kith were never meant to possess. But having spent more than half a century in pursuit of glory and fame—trying to live up to the legacy of his father—Basil has grown indifferent towards his work. Desperate for a worthy challenge, but bound by his duties as a dungeon keeper, he has turned his mind towards uncovering the ultimate fate of the previous master of his house and the secrets that were buried with him. Now the young Master of House Doom must balance his growing interest in pursuing the trail of his father with the responsibilities that come with running a dungeon in service to the Guild of Chaos. To remain in good standing with the Guild, Basil has even accepted the task of mentoring an apprentice dungeon keeper, a young succubus named Elnora. It is at the tail end of her apprenticeship that the story begins; with a civilization poised to fall—its greatest heroes gathering for one last assault on the heart of darkness—and Basil striking up a conversation with his apprentice that will set into motion the unraveling of the universe. ***This is a rewrite and continuation of my story that was first posted on RoyalRoad a few years ago.
