《A Fool's Wish》Chapter 2 Page 5 - Akilah Comes Home

“What no way, then will I meet him?” Akilah asked impatiently.
“No, as a matter of fact try to avoid him at all costs. I don’t know how well your magic will work against him, since both of you use my powers, albeit to different degrees. Still your powers might not be very effective against him.”
“This…This feels like a loophole that I should have been informed about.” Akilah said
“Well you are being informed about it now” Ladybug said sounding completely satisfied with his witty response “Besides would you have done anything differently if you had known about this? Would you have canceled the deal?”
*Sigh* “You sure have an answer for everything don't you” Akilah replied annoyed.
“Yes, yes I do, I am after all, a powerful other worldly being. Of course, I-”
“Yeah yeah I got it. I don't need to listen to this spiel again. Bottom line is that I'll be fine as long as I don't fight him, right?”
“Rude of you to interrupt, but yes that is right”
“Okay then there's no need to worry about it.”
“Yes...No need”
Although Akilah found his reply a bit strange, she didn’t have time to ask him any further questions as she suddenly felt his presence become stranger.
“Now get ready Akilah Amory?”
“Is it time?” Akilah asked.
“Almost” Ladybug replied “But before that let me give you a parting gift”
“A gift?” Akilah asked, completely shocked that he had even prepared something like that.
“Yes a gift”
Akilah felt something touch her temple, a cold sensation rushed through her body, it felt like something entered her mind.
“What was that?” She asked.
“A mind grimoire” Ladybug answered, “It has all the spells you have learned so far and a few more that I added in. You are already strong enough, but knowing you, you will probably want more just in case”

“You know me so well” Akilah interjected.
“I have created a monster” He said laughed softly and continued “When it comes to attack and protection magic, the type that you wanted for your revenge; you have already reached the peak. But there are other areas that need some training. Which I assume you will be doing in those years you will spend with your friend, waiting for him to arrive.”
“Again you know me to well Ladybug”
“What can I say, I am a genius supernatural being, what did you expected!” He said with confidence.
Akilah laughed “Wow you really know how to ruin the mood, don't you. Just as I was about to give you a genuine compliment”
Ladybug chuckled “But in all seriousness. I gave you the mind grimoire, to relieve you of the fear of having your grimoire being detected.”
“I... I hadn't really considered that, thanks.”
“No need, just think of it as a parting gift from an employer to an employee for years of good work”
Akilah was about to give her thanks again but just then Ladybug spoke up.
“It's time" Ladybug said with a stern voice “Akilah Amory. You are hereby freed from your position as my henchman. You completed your part fully, and you are now granted your wish for powerful magical abilities. You will thus as agreed be sent back six years before we met.”
A thick fog quickly surrounded Akilah, she felt nostalgic, this was just like when she first had summoned him.
“Close your eyes Akilah” Ladybug said softly.
Akilah closed her eyes and felt a gust of wind hit her. All of a sudden, she heard someone far away call her name, the voice came closer and closer. She opened her eyes and looked around, she was back at her old home, and that voice calling her name was Adara’s voice.

I love this world (Complete)
A man gets thrown into an alternate world after what was supposed to a harrowing escape from death. Follow him as he uses his knowledge from his previous life of research to adapt and survive in a place that is void of human contact, only to find out later how absurdly ridiculous his abilities are. Journey alongside this man as he attempts to change the new world for a better place, to turn it into one that he loves. PS, it will follow the reincarnation template very closely in the beginning (what do u expect? this is RRL), but will deviate from it as the story progress Warning: Crude language
8 103Duck and Wolf
Atticus (Adi) Wulfert comes from a long line of hunters, and now it's time for him to find his calling. Only... He's sort of a failure at it. His girlfriend thinks he should get a real job, his first teacher was slain by werewolves, and his target has decided to become his not so warm and caring mentor. Quite the opposite of warm, really. Dead cold is more like it. Adi isn't sure if he's being kept around as an emergency foodsource or if this vampire really wants to help him, but whatever the case may be, he doesn't have much choice in the matter. --- Cover photo by Cristian Newman on Unsplash - https://unsplash.com/@cristian_newman --- I do updates on my twitter and blog on what I'm up to every now and again when it comes to my writing.

8 88Re: (Union//Incarnation)
Two years ago, a meteor fell and decimated the southeastern lands of Gaia, turning them into wastelands constantly shrouded in white fog. None of those who saw the blazing calamity with their own eyes lived to tell the tale, and those who attempted to venture in never came back. Since then, towers, caverns, and ruins have appeared and disappeared without a pattern. Those who were brave enough to venture in were rewarded with a partner capable of defying the natural laws as humanity knows it. People started to call them ‘Incarnation’, and before long, more and more Incarnation were gathered and sold as commodity, especially after a billionaire has sponsored a fighting tournament offering cash prizes to those possessing the strongest Incarnation, spurring the greedy and desperate to hunt for the fabled creatures at the cost of their lives. Claire Saphira wanted none of that. She simply wished for a life where she could live without worry of her own survival. As she ran from the debt collectors for the umpteenth time, she was swallowed by an errant tower, where she saw a frail, pale-skinned girl with ashen hair hung by chains. It was a chance, a chance to participate in the tournament and live without worrying about survival. Yet, something nagged in the back of her mind. Why did she look so familiar? Planned release schedule: One chapter every day for Mon-Fri, and a break on Sat-Sun. The release will slow down at some point, but most likely won't go under 3 chapters a week.
