《In the Name of the Unholy Spirit》Chapter 03 : One can only convert a sinner, never a saint. Part 2
Advertisement
Silas opened his eyes to see a starry sky. Each star was strikingly bright.
He stood up, but just as he stood up, he found out that he was in the void with no ground to stand up on. Nonetheless, as if compelled to move by a strange power or his sheer will, his petite body stood up and floated there in the void surrounded by stars.
He then found out that his small body was wearing a white immaculate robe. It seemed to be made of a strange energy rather than fabric.
Apart from feeling like he had just slept a thousand years, he felt strong and invigorated. He felt so much power that he didn’t know what to do with it.
He was also a little bit lost and didn’t understand his current situation.
How could his five-year-old self understand what was happening to him?
As he thought of looking around the void to understand what was happening despite being a little bit afraid, he heard a voice behind him, “Oh?...are you another mind demon trying to make me remember the fact that I can’t have children?... I must say, you look cute…just like how I would imagine my own little son to be…”
Silas turned around to see a beautiful woman whose robe, eyes and hair looked like the starry sky itself.
“Now that I see you closely, why do you have the stench of a human on you despite having a silver halo above your head?” the woman said as she narrowed her eyes. She thought, “What’s this? I forced myself to sleep so that a mind demon could come so I can pretend to be a mother. I am a God, so it stands to reason that my children would be gods as well. But now…it’s a little angel with the stench of a human. I loathe humans, they’re nothing more than cattle to harvest faith power from and most of the remaining angels think so as well.”

As she was lost in her thoughts she heard Silas saying, “I am human. What are you, beautiful madam?”
“Me?... I am the Evernight Goddess. Tell me, little man how did you find yourself in a God’s dream?” She asked after having made some conjectures of her own and she was dying to know the answer.
“What’s an Evernight Goddess? God’s dream? I’m in a dream? Wow… no wonder I feel like this. “A trace of amazement appeared on Silas’ face.
“Well, I can just find out after a read your memories.”
Silas's mind went blank for a second and then returned to normal in the next second. Not sure what had happened he looked to the Evernight Goddess for an answer.
For a Goddess of her caliber, it only took less than a second to read his memories.
“I see…that poison should’ve killed a kid like you. Yet you survived and turned into an aberration. I wonder which crazed angel would risk chipping his own halo to save a lowly human… It is taboo…unless the halo was already broken, in that case, he wouldn’t lose much power. ”
“His halo does have a familiar smell…it is…shouldn’t it be… yes, it’s the smell of that traitor, Archangel Arkun, the King of souls. He should be long dead…I personally dealt him a finishing blow, but if he survived, all he needs is to eat souls and he should slowly revive himself and become an archangel again. His unique power gave him dominion over souls. Apart from eating them he could also strengthen them and enslave them. All the angels feared and respected him. If it wasn’t for the fact that he eyed my position, making it so I had to kill him, he would’ve been a fine soldier under me. With such a powerful ally, the other gods would think twice before challenging me.”

Child of Nightmares
You can't master fear. You can only embrace it and hope you're strong enough to finish what you started before it destroys you. Vi has always dreamed about being summoned to a fantasy world, where she can fulfill her dreams of heroism and adventure and escape her boring, depressing, real life. But if there's one thing true about Vi, it's that her dreams are dark, terrible, and never what they seem. Since she was a child, she's been the victim of chronic nightmares that seem to defy all reason. Her mind is clouded by an almost sentient darkness, seeking her weaknesses and exploiting them for its malevolent ends. For ten years, the only thing standing between her and insanity has been her own iron will. But iron corrodes, and Vi knows she can't hold on much longer. Now her dreams have come true. She finds herself in a world of magic, monsters, and legendary heroes. But Vi is no hero. She's a teenage nerd with no real skills, and surviving in this strange new land is no easy task. She will need to grow and adapt, conquer impossible odds, and stand face to face with terrifying monsters. One thing is certain: Vi's struggles will change her. But will she change into the woman she hopes she can be, or the one she fears she's becoming? <><><><> Cover by NinjaSmashingOnions

A Lonely Spiral
Rye wakes up with a toad in her mouth. From the first day the world is out to make her life miserable as she struggles through living without a sun, through graves and grave threats in the form of man or monster, or even just her innermost doubts and insecurities. Join her as she explores a dark, dark world and slowly, but surely finds her place in it. Or will she? What if the world has no place for a small, weak and uncertain person like her? How will she adapt, if at all, to ever worsening circumstances? (Features a slow-burning progression, many setbacks and a thousand ways to suffer in the age of darkness with a slice of humor to finish it off. Expect the dark-souls of adventure stories. Early chapters are a bit of a mess, but it gets better. If you want to skip forward, I can recommend chapters 19, 26, or 34 as starting points.) Heyo, YJarex here, the Y is silent. This is my first story so please be kind, but don't hesitate to point out flaws or ask questions if things are unclear. I fully intend to continue writing this until it is done some time in the far future. Cover art is a commission by the wonderful hou_jae04. Check them out on Instagram here. Schedule is Tuesday and Thursday with a chance of bonus chapters on Saturday. [participant in the Royal Road Writathon challenge] Done!
