《The Stupid God who tries to get better》Chapter 4
Advertisement
I ran.. and ran.. and ran.. I don't know how far I had ran or where I was running to. It was getting dark, the streets were bustling. People kept on chirping and many stalls outside were selling things. Cars were honking and there were two wheelers which were trying to get through the traffic.
I was still running, I couldn't pay attention to my surroundings. It was as if my senses had gone numb. My blood was flowing at a faster rate than normal. My legs were hurting. The soles of my feet were feeling painful as well as itchy.
Some people would look at my way and then turned their gaze away. It was as if it had nothing to do with them. My face was filled with horror. 'what is going on?!' Why is this happening?
I ran into a small black alley, there were houses surrounding it. They were old and looked weird. There were garbage bins which gave of a foul stench.
In front of me was a wall. I could easily break it and keep on running if I still had my powers. I gave the wall a punch but I had forgotten that I had lost my powers. The hard punch I had given to the wall had been for naught. My fist hurt. 'HURT', a word rather rarely used by me.
The only time I had used that word would have to be while I was fighting that dragon.
My body felt powerless. My legs felt numb and I was gasping for air. I fell on my buttocks and started breathing harshly. My mind was on chaos.
All of these sensations that I had never felt before came rushing into me. It felt suffocating.
If I was to describe my situation right now to make people feel how I really felt right now, it would be like a billionaire who had suddenly become bankrupt, lost all his money and assets, getting robbed of his identity and all this happened in the blink of an eye. No time to even think properly.

My mind is in chaos. I didn't know what to do.
It felt like I had been robbed of everything that I had.
I felt two warm drops of water fall down from my eyes. I brought my hand to my face.
My face twisted and my throat felt stifled as more drops of water fell from my eyes. I felt something come out of my nose.
I had often heard about it as a god, a thing that humans did when they were sad. Of course, as a god I had never experienced it. I thought at that time that humans were pathetic looking and did something so dumb when they were sad but now I felt that doing this was a very stress relieving.
My father had given me a mission. As a god naturally the mission would not be ordinary. I had never been in such a pitiful condition so I didn't know what to do.
Gradually I quietened down. My mind felt blank. I was not able to think anything. That was when I heard a sweet voice.
“Hey what are you doing here? Why did you run away so suddenly? Are you alright?”
I looked at her face with eyes which seemed kinda dull.
“Ah! You're hand is hurt! Oh my god. It seems quite bad. You have to check it up at a hospital.”
She was the girl he had met on the beach. Her face had a worried look. I bet I looked very haggard right now. She still looked worried, it looked sincere. Her worry was like a ray of light during my darkness.
“Weren't you energetic back at the beach? Why are you so frail now? Come on let's go.”
She took my hand and pulled at it to lift me up. I felt weird. Since my birth nobody had looked at me with worried eyes. It felt good but I also felt angry and showed displeasure on my face.

“Who do you think you are!! Why did you follow me here?! Let go! Disgusting woman just leave me alone!! Where are you planning on taking me?!”
I shook my hand out of hers and shouted at her to relieve my frustration a bit.
“You!! How can you call me disgusting?! I was only trying to help! You are the one who is disgusting! You were the one who suddenly appeared on the beach naked!”
She also got angry this time, seems like she doesn't like being called disgusting.
I felt anger boil up inside me. How dare she call me disgusting! I would have killed her if I still had my powers!
“You don't want to go? FINE. Don't go.”
She stormed off before I could say anything else.
I was alone again in this small, stinking alley.
I sat down again and tried to recall what had happened thus far.
I fell on a beach and met an idiotic women. I was sure I would still have some of my powers so I thought I would succeed in this mission but it doesn't seem so. I started thinking of stupid things and fell into despair and felt some human things.
‘Looks like being in a human body corroded my mind a little bit’. “Haha haha". I laughed at my stupidity.
I had done something shameful and felt a little regretful. I also felt sad when that girl/woman left. I was not able to think clearly.
“Now there is only one way I could solve this. Though I didn't want to go there, my only hope at succeeding in the mission is to go. I don't even know what the mission is.”
Time to go. After lifting myself up, I started to walk out of the alley.

I, Mor-eldal: The Necromancer Thief
As a budding little necromancer, I soon discovered that the world of city people is complicated. When my master kicked me out of the cave, he warned me not to talk about my “dark” magic, because people here don't like the undead. I am not really an undead, I just have a skeleton hand, but it is better to be careful. Anyway, that's not my biggest worry. In the Black Dagger brotherhood, I learn a lot of things, such as illusionist magic, which turns out to be quite handy to survive in this maze of streets: in the Cat Quarter, we have thugs of all kinds that are best avoided. But we also have good people, goodhearted “gwaks”, as we say around here. Little did I know that I would soon be caught up in an infamous traffic that would entangle my life even more. With a mix of lighthearted adventure and picaresque, this story narrates the hectic life of a good-spirited street child and his companions in a medieval urban fantasy setting with some nineteenth-century influences. Updates Mondays and Fridays. This is a Creative Commons By work. It is a translation of a trilogy I wrote in Spanish between 2017 and 2018.
