《World of Eden》Chapter 9 - Overflowing Darkness
Advertisement
Raella watched as Yseif’s power increased exponentially. A dark aura surrounded his body like a bubble. The aura was shaped into the form of a Demon. Two horns appeared on Yseif’s forehead. Six angel like wings flap around his back, not in colors of white but deep shades of black.
“Ah, it’s been awhile since I’ve felt free” Yseif said.
“Y-you! Why?!” Raella shouted.
Yseif turned his attention towards Raella. She was still holding the Demon Maid in one hand and Sana on the other hand. Due to extreme fear, the Demon Maid fell unconscious again. A smile appeared on Yseif’s face.
“My dear Raella, you are as beautiful as ever. Still, you aren’t as beautiful as your sister” Yseif said.
Raella’s face darkened at Yseif’s remark. Every women likes compliments, but being compared and told in your face that you are worse than someone else really hurts one’s pride.
“So the other half of yourself finally got released?” Raella said with a tint of anger.
“I wouldn’t call it the other half of myself. I would prefer it more if you call it that I am just being myself now” Yseif replied while shrugging his shoulders.
“You know that if you appear now, Sana’s life will never be the same” Raella informed.
“It’s already not the same, you being here is the perfect example of it”
“You and your pious believers are the ones who destroyed our peaceful lives” Yseif flatly said.
“I-I—“
“Don’t you think so? Your believers destroys villages, kills the innocent, pillages homes, and rules by power all under your name. Don’t you feel guilty? You let them do what they want because they are humans; you even empowered them by giving them your blessings” Yseif continued his remarks.
“I didn’t know…” Raella quietly replied.

“Don’t play the ‘not knowing’ card with me. Don’t you know who I am? I feel all of the victim’s hate, envy, greed, lust, everything!”
“I’ve agreed to fulfill his wishes so I will destroy everything that is a threat to Sana’s peaceful life” Yseif said.
Staring at Raella, Yseif’s attitude became serious.
“That includes you, the Goddess of Light” Yseif proclaimed.
Raella suddenly went on high alert. The killing intent that Yseif was emitting is at a dangerous level for her.
*Swoosh* Yseif appeared in front of Raella. He swung his halberd towards Raella’s arms.
Raella instinctively let go of the bodies in her arms and pulled out her sword to defend.
*Clang* She was sent flying like a bullet, flying across the sky and slamming into the nearby mountain.
Yseif grabbed ahold of Sana and the Demon Main and laid them next to a tree. He then put up a strong barrier around them to protect them from external sources. Yseif’s first objective was completed.
“You f***ing piece of s**t, I was being nice here and you go ruining my beautiful dress!” Raella roared in anger. Her image was a complete opposite of what she was like earlier.
“So the other half of yourself finally got released?” Yseif sneered.
“I will rip that smart tongue of yours out of your mouth!” Raella said in anger.
“Oo, I’m so scared!” Yseif replied while acting scared.
“You little s**t!”
*Fwiinnngg* A sword wave flew across the forest, cutting down everything in its path. The trees were being cut down like a timberman cutting down a tree. Yseif took flight into the skies and dodged the sword wave.
A once peaceful and lush forest was now a desolated and dull wasteland. It’s as if a war had gone through and destroyed this piece of land.

Raella flew from the broken mountain and confronted Yseif in the air. Yseif threw out spears of dark energy across the sky aiming at Raella. Each spear was flung away with each swung of Raella’s sword.
*Boom* *Boom* *Boom* The spears dropped like bombs, exploding and destroying everything in their wake.
“Is that all you’ve got you s**thead?” Raella sneered.
“My power hasn’t fully adjusted itself…” Yseif mumbled.
“Ha, this is enough for someone like you!” Yseif said instead.
“You’re overestimating yourself too much” Raella replied.
All of a sudden, a ray of light shone upon Yseif’s position. It was a giant pillar of light. The light was like a river of water, flowing freely but harsh like the waves. The light sent Yseif flying towards the ground.
*Kaboom* After a loud explosion, a large dust cloud was formed. Slowly, the dust cloud cleared away and Yseif can be seen on the ground tattered. Standing upright with his clothes torn, he faced the direction of the new enemy.
“Am I too late to the party?” the person said.
“The f*ck are you doing here?” Raella replied.
“Watch that language of yours when you speak to me” the person said.
“Tch…” Raella backed away.
“So it’s two now huh…” Yseif chimed in.
“Seems your power haven’t fully adjusted…” the person said.
“Mind your own business Alcard! He’s mine!” Raella butted in.
“You still harbored a grudge from what happened to your sister?” Alcard asked.
“SHUT UP! I said mind your own business!” Raella exclaimed.
Yseif watched them argue while pondering what he can do. His power still needs time to re-adjust itself. He needs to delay them enough for his power to fix itself. Once that happens, he can fight them head on.
Before Yseif can get his thoughts straight, another obstacle came out of the blue.
Four beams of light showered down on their location. When the beam of light dissipated, four women stepped out and joined the party.
“Well, well, if it isn’t the sl*t Raella and the old geezer Alcard…” the first women smirked.
“Namial, stop being rude and watch what you are saying…” the second women rebuked the first women.
“Speila, back off my case” Namial said.
“Lora, tell your sister too, we aren’t here to play…” Speila said.
Lora was quiet and stared straight at Yseif. Then she turned towards the fourth women, Aviell, who can be seen shaking while looking at Yseif.
“The four sister of the wh*re house in the garden huh…” Raella sneered.
“You bi—“ Before Namial can complete her sentence, she was cut off by another person entering the fray.
The new person had two horns sticking out from its head and four wings sticking out form its back. With a lizard-like tail hanging towards the ground, the person radiated a powerful evil and dark energy.
“Why, almost all the parties are here!” the person shouted.
“Guaron…what are you doing here?” Alcard asked
“Well, if there’s so many of you causing trouble at my borders, why wouldn’t I come here?” Guaron replied with a smile.
Yseif was now in a pinch. Even with all the ideas he had to delay for his power, it’s not enough with this much obstacle around.
The Goddess of Light, Raella; God of the Sky, Alcard; Four witches of Fairy Garden, Namial, Speila, Lora, Aviell; and God of Evil, Guaron.
“S**t!” Yseif grumbled.

Journeys in the Fairworld: The Gatekeeper
Lindsey Fluger was only slightly past eighteen. There was nothing particularly special about her, save that she happened to be the right person at the right time. When Lindsey is asked to join an expedition to another world she makes the mistake of saying yes, plunging herself into a sea of perilous adventure and dark intrigue. Journeys in the Fairworld is a fantasy anthology series set in The Fairworld, a magical realm existing in parallel with our own world which is governed by a group elfin beings known only as “The Good Folk”. These mysterious entities work in secret to keep the peace between the myriad of peoples and nations which dwell in The Fairworld. Complex relationships and bitter rivalries emerge against a backdrop of constrained resources and conflicting values to produce a world of high adventure and tangled mysteries. This novel is technically already completed, and I am currently in the final stages of proofing or editing. As such, there may be a few typos and errors here and there. The final version should be about 130,000 words long, which I will be releasing in stages as I continue editing. I'd love to hear your feedback and comments!

8 147She Who Reigns the Stars [Vol. 1]
*Remastered version of She Who Reigns the Stars* Tell me, what will become of us? Presenting your Goddess… Asteria, Supreme Deity of Stalera, the nation of the Universe. She who rules the stars with steel eyes and an iron will, the glorious, the beautiful, the adored Goddess, has now fallen under the hands of her nemesis… The Archfiend, Emperor of Talonis, the nation of Vice and its Shadows, has now assumed reign over Stalera after the death of the Goddess. With the power of Vice, its Shadows, and the Universe, it is assumed that he would be satisfied now that Stalera was under his mercy, and the other two nations of Yelerna and Antalis would follow suit. But much to our surprise, he isn’t because he still lacks the… Ruby, The Goddess’ last attempt to save her empire and the entirety of the Universe. Before her death, the Goddess sealed a portion of her blood, which contained the remaining powers of the Universe the Archfiend hadn’t obtained, away from his grasp. She entrusted it to one of her Zodiac Warriors, a member of her elite service known as the Zodiac Warrior Circle, and instructed him to hide the precious jewel on Earth. The restoration of Stalera and the defeat of the Archfiend would lie in the hands of whoever inherited the ruby jewel. Those who inherited the ruby were known as the Goddess’ Successor, and the one next in line to inherit it is… Auriella Corentin. Life was never the same for Auriella the night her Grandmama gave her the ruby jewel and died, thrusting the poor girl into a world of magic. Now in possession of the Goddess’ blood, it wouldn’t be long until the Archfiend found her, killed her, and obtained her ruby inheritance. But Auriella never wanted this responsibility, not when she had her own past and inner demons to battle against. Nevertheless, she finds herself seeking an alliance with the Zodiac Warriors and a strange barista as she learns to wield the powers the Goddess bestowed to her. But as frequent demon attacks, a secret admirer (or stalker), strange notes, and a handsome, amber-eyed boy pile onto her plate, it is no longer clear whether the universe needed Auriella to be their savior or to be the Goddess’ (inferior) replacement. A Goddess in need of redemption. Four Nations at the brink of destruction. Our question still remains unanswered… What will become of us? [Updates Monday, Wednesday, Friday @8pm PST]
