《The call in the night, OneShots collection》A corrupted vision
Advertisement
A wise philosopher once said that we make our world, that each person live and see the world in a different way. Sometimes it could be something so small as liking or disliking a pillow others it can be something so great that you wonder if those two person have lived the same thing.
After what I passed through I can say that I understand this statement. On some foundamental level we live and habitate different realities and we don't notice only because the difference are so small.
I remember that night, it was around 4pm, the entire house laid dead quiet and everything was dark as the darkest ink, except for my room, illuminated by the blue light of monitor.
Sometimes I really wonder how life was before modernity and how life would be. The lives of centuries past now would seem of the most boredom, dullness and monotony, without our all of our stimuli. Both the opposite is also true, who knows what great stimuli we will invent to make life today seem so boring and dull!
The wisest of you will have from those few paragraphs already understood my situation. But for reasons that I hope you will understand I will prefer not stating it directly but letting the reader understand by suggestions and allusions what I am talking about.
I had forgoten how a clean and ordinate mind was, so many things had entered my mind that it was more like an uncordinated chaos than anything else. I sting badly, very badly, of the most ignobile of stings, the ones that you would never hope of catching in public, or for that matter, in many private occasions.
"And another day is gonne" my eyes were that of grave digger, dark,cold, unkind with a touch of spite and hostility toward reality that few people would understand.

"And another day will come" I went under warm sleeves without washing myself. The next day, after school, I went to a party.
Saying that I was hostile will be wrong, I was not hostile, hostility implies some kind of energy and activity. No, I was of the most passive and nice people who you will ever encounter. Always avoiding conflict and never saying a rude word. Some guys were playing a fighting game and as I glance at the screen, memories, many memories came back to me. I barely managed to contain myself, all those costumes...all those things... another group of guys was chilling on a sofa watching some animes. I joined them.
You see if you have never suffered from my condition or similar ones it would be very hard to understand what was going on in my mind. When you reach a certain level reality itself becomes distorted, you make it distorted, and you allow the most absurd and idiotic of scenarious and explanations to meet that distortion. Nothing is an exception to this.
But until that time I though that I was "normal" that nothing was wrong with me. Maybe I was normal, but that doesn’t mean that something was not wrong with me.

Trashmancer
Average Chapter Length: 3,000 Words. Updates: Whenever I finish a chapter. Synopsis: Down on his luck, Eddie decided to enter the VRMMORPG Chronicles Of Fantasy with hopes of becoming a powerful monster slaying, magic slinging, princess-loving player, but a round of thieves chucked him deep into the trash pit underneath Arindought. Without hope of getting out, or making a new character, he ventures forwards through piles of trash- literally. Join our paste-eating main character, a snarky but helpful system, and more than two dimensional side characters, as they explore and deal with problems within the game. Spectacular magic? Over-sized breasts? “Onee-chan?” No, I’m sorry (Especially for the last bit). This is no drug fueled story about getting trapped in a video game with an evil AI or a cute bunny-girl harem isekai. It’s just about Eddie, his trash, and his journey in his first gaming venture. This book will be published on kindle after its completion. That means that the chapters will have to be deleted. So please, get reading! [participant in the Royal Road Writathon challenge]

Will he get over his past and really turn a new leaf??? Will a place where law of jungle has long seeped into the society allow him lead a pleasant life without any carnage or bloodshed?????? ------------- Warning: About Story The Inheritor will be your standard reincarnation fantasy in a futuristic setup with cultivation being a mainstream occupation. Though it's a standard novel with Reincarnation and Cultivation 'The Inheritor' is not a HAREM and it'll have Romance. The action might take the back seat in the first part of the book. About the Author This is my first novel or any attempt to write something so I'm pretty much a newbie trying to pen down the fantasies rolling in my mind. English isn't my First language so brace yourself for some grammatic potholes. But I'm genuinely working on improving my English but it won't be happening overnight as it's a process, I guess. (for the time being, I'm trying to make it readable with some Grammar checking software) Moreover, I wish to improve my writing skills as the story grows and readers help in spotting mistakes or critics might turn it into a reality.
