《Darkness Of Hell》Goddess Of Snakes

"But you need to learn to use your capabilities" Frank continued and turned to look at Winston.
"Can you just fly in the air and see where is the way to get out of here?" Frank said nervously
Winston stares at him for a moment with confusion, and then he closes his eyes, but nothing happens. He opened his eyes and looked at Frank with embarrassment, and tried again but nothing happened.
"I don't know how to do it. Maybe power also doesn't work here" he said looking at him.
"You don't know how to use your powers, do you? " Frank said with wide eyes
"And also power works here perfectly, it's just we can't get out of here through the portal" he continued.
"So now what should we do then?" Winston asked
"Well keep trying. It's a normal thing that you are facing. You just need more focus to use it properly" Frank said and started climbing on a broken wall.
Winston keeps trying again and again but nothing happens. Suddenly he got into the air for a moment, he didn't know how he did it but he was in the air for a moment and saw a way out, and fell to the ground as he lost his focus.
Frank couldn't help but laugh a little, and Winston looks at him with an annoying face. And said,
"I found a way out"
Frank steps down from the wall and starts following Winston out.
Manasa is the goddess of snakes, she lives in another dimension. Only those who have mastered the space element can travel to another dimension of hell. Space is the last element out of five to master, after which demons usually become the devils. When the devil wants to torture someone, they throw them into this dimension, where the most dangerous snakes live. They have evolved and developed monstrous capabilities here. Whoever comes here gets hunted by these snakes.
Manasa herself is the snake with five heads of a woman attached to the single snake body. She walks along with the thousands of snakes, who act according to her commands.

Most of the people the devil throws here are the demons who either betrayed him or were too ambitious. They still have their power here, but cannot get out of here. So they have to live here running away from the monstrous snakes and Manasa, so they don't get hunted.
Frank and Winston came out of the collapsed fort, into the forest. They could hear the water flowing at some distance. Frank put his hand inside his pocket and took out a bottle of nectar and drank a sip from it. Winston also took out a case of cigarettes and lit one from them.
"I thought you quit, as you haven't smoked in a long time," Frank said, putting back the bottle into his pocket.
"I didn't, I just don't remember to smoke any more. Winston said, inhaling the smoke inside.
Frank looked at him with wide eyes,
"I don't feel many things anymore, the way I used to feel. And after fighting with Lanark everything just changed drastically. I feel so light. Before I used to smoke to feel light, after becoming a demon, I already felt lighter. The guilt and worry are getting less every day" Winston continued.
"It must feel great to be powerful?" Frank asked curiously.
"Sometimes it does, sometimes you are just scared to lose it. It's the thing about power, you will know it, Frank. It won't be long when you have your powers" Winston said, looking into his eyes.
Frank smile softly and said,
"My mind is my power, Winston" and Winston smiled looking at him affirmatively.
They start walking silently towards the river.
"Sometimes I think that I am losing myself in this pursuit of power", Winston said while walking beside Frank, they looked at each other with silence
"I never felt so powerful before. When we were fighting Lanark and I made that shield of air around us, that moment was very different. It was like there are two of me inside me" Winston paused to look at Frank, while Frank was looking at him in the sense that makes Winston comfortable to talk further.

"One is scared and weak while another is strong, clear and bold. I have seen pain and helplessness very closely, so I always feel scared that I might not do something bad to someone, who is helpless or in pain. But at that moment something just came to me, a clarity, and with that clarity, I felt so powerful. But I also felt that I am losing something on the way. Something that makes me who I am" Winston continued without taking any breath and Frank was listening to him very carefully.
They both walk another few moments in silence, the sound of water striking rock and flowing through it is getting louder. They can feel the wetness in the air that the water droplets created. The smell turned a little humid, and their legs were taking slow steps to reach for cold water in the river.
"Whatever you are feeling is quite normal. Power changes people. I would say that power reveals to people who they are deep inside, beneath all that lies and the fake image they have created of themselves" he looked at Winston with a soft smile on his face and Winston was looking at him nervously.
"But, as you say that you are scared to lose yourself, it says a lot about you. It says a lot about you. You don't want to turn like others who get blinded by their power and start abusing it towards the weak" he continued trying to shy away Winston's nervousness.
A faint smile spread on Winston's face, and they reached the bank of the river. Water was flowing rapidly through stones.
"Now what?" Winston asked looking at Frank, and he looked back at him with a smile and said,
"Let's just walk along the river, and we might find something or someone"
Winston didn't say anything, he just smiled back and started walking with Frank.

Fiona and Winston were kissing each other passionately. They were at some beach, and Fiona was wearing a red bikini, while Winston was wearing shorts.
Sea waves touch their feet and shake them. But they were completely unaware of it, dipped into each other. Sun was almost setting, creating a red scattered light in the sky. And the whole sea looked like blood with its reflection in it.
There was no one on the beach. The place looks like it is yet to be discovered by the people. Free from all the after-party things that people left behind after their vacation. Only clear sand, shining with the last rays of the sun.
They both were softly touching each other's lips like they were scared that they might hurt each other. After a few minutes, they both stopped and separated their lips slowly from each other. But they were looking like they were still craving for more of it.
They slowly opened their eyes and looked at each other. Both of them were blushing like a seventeen-year-old falling in love for the first time. Their eyes were shining with happiness. Winston curled his fingers through her hair and she felt his touch on the back of her ear.
Her hair was loose and came till just above her waist, it was spread all over her back. Winston put his hand around her shoulders, and they started walking on the beach, through the tides hitting their bare legs and rubbing them with foam.
Fiona curled her arm around Winston's back, and she was touching his stomach with her fingers.
After their last meeting in Beijing. On one fine evening, Fiona called Winston out of the blue. Winston also thinks about calling her a few times. But he thought about Dang Lee and the business that they are building together.

World Servers - Dawn
The year is 2143, and much of the world’s population has been digitized for decades. Different servers are configured for different purposes. Some servers are pure gaming worlds. Others are offshoots of fringe political experimentation or regimes. Still others are based around ethnic or nationalist sentiment. Some replicate past times or past eras. And still others have been designed as totally imaginary locations created out of the dreams of programmers and the Artificial Intelligences that have been used to build and drive them. The gaming guild I Like Big Booty is a loosely affiliated group of friends and avid players. Theirs is an international guild which spans multiple servers, mostly running raids, ganking other players in PVP, and generally trying to build up the funds to purchase their own home world server. On one of the most populous servers – designed to resemble 20th century earth – a small raid team running a boring and routine run in Washington DC, comes across something that might change the fate of Virtual Reality across the solar system. Note: Per request, the title has been changed, though I might change it again when if I come up with something a little better.

I Am Not A Humanity's Traitor (Isekai LitRPG)
Ren is a reincarnated person. His new world had the same name as his old one, Earth. But that was the extent of the resemblances. Ren has a skill as well, or at least he was told he did, but he had no inkling of how to use it. He was disheartened at first but his goal wasn't the path to power, all he wanted from this world was to continue the peaceful life, but the world didn't even provide him with that. A luminous pillar descended upon him and one of his classmates. Goddess Helastia, one of the most revered goddess, called them to herself, probably not a good news. However, there, he finds that a group of heroes has been summoned from his past world to confront the Devils that will be rising soon. But contrary to his assumption of being a hero himself, she referred to him as a reincarnated imposter. She labeled both of them as Humanity's Traitors and sends them into a dungeon where they were supposed to live. That is, with their masters and comrades, the Devils and their minions. The monsters in the dungeon were not likely to accept them as allies, instead, they were out to devour the delicacies that appeared in their home. Only despair awaited them. ---------------------------------------------------------- This novel is inspired from Neets's parallel world syndrome, Abnormal state skill and bunch of other jp novels, this is also my first time writing a web novel. Also English isn't my native language, so, sorry in advance. The pic in the cover is taken from pixabay and edited by me.
