《Grasping》Chapter 16: New maid
Advertisement
" How do you know what I am."
Gulping, the girl answered as calmly as she could.
" By your energy... Your energy is ever-present in the second dimension. I never noticed it until now. Before the source itself, I can tell the nature of your energy."
Continuing his interrogation, Magnus asked his next question.
" Do you know what my name is?"
" You- your name? M*a_gn^#s"
As she said his name, she projected impressions of destruction, recreation, grasping, devouring and chaos.
" And how do you know my name?"
" It is the name of a dimension many other gods had found. It is an unending sea of limbs that grab at you, while the air itself seems to devour the body."
" Oh, so you found my domain."
Magnus felt extremely surprised at this revelation. He did not realise that people other than himself could enter his domain. He touched his chin with a finger thinking about the implications of this newfound knowledge.
He turned back to Nawa to ask his next question, only to find that she looked even paler than she did before. Somehow, her obviously self-replenishing bladder had failed her again.
' How does her body store so much... nevermind.'
Magnus pointed at the 2D static beings going about their business behind the girl.
" Look behind you, what are those people doing? What were you doing before I brought you here?"
" They are travelling to different 2D worlds, my lord."
Hearing this, Magnus tried to calm himself.
' If interdimensional travel requires going through the dimension above the one you are in. I would be travelling through the fourth dimension. From what I saw with Nawa just now, travelling vertically will cause the energy in one's body to transform into soul energy and forcefully upgrade your soul. I would be severely weakened if I were pulled into the 4th dimension.'

He sighed again.
' For now, let's put this girl away. My home needs a cleaner.'
" Listen up, you shall be my maid."
He grasped the girl out of all the piss and lifted her off the ground. He then created a simple black shirt, underwear, jeans and slippers on her body. Next, he snapped his fingers, teleporting himself into his domain and restarting time.
He appeared in front of his house with Nawa in his arms. Princess carry style. When he created his domain, he had made an island, an oasis of green within a sea of limbs. The island was relatively small. It had a small forest and a nice wooden mansion exactly in the middle of the circular island.
Magnus dropped his new maid on the doorstep of his home and gave her instructions.
" Clean my home every day. You may live in it. You may do anything you want as long as you keep it clean. I have stored food in the cellar. Cook for yourself. You may even kill yourself. I have bound your soul to this mansion. When the artificial sun rises in the morning, you will find yourself standing in the kitchen completely restored to your optimum state. I will check up on you every 5 decades. There will be a clock in the kitchen that will state the time and the date."
The girl stared at the door in shock. Unable to process what her abductor wanted of her. Unfortunately for her, Magnus continued talking. He snapped his fingers and the sun, which was previously in the middle of the sky, started rising from the east again.
" The year starts now. See you in a few decades!"
The monster in the form of a boy said cheerfully and patted his new maid on the back. Then, he teleported away.

8 162Dream Theater
Long casted shadows danced in the background, as a man squibbled and jotted words on yellow papers. A mere novelty, remnant and ghost that was left to age away along with the forgotten theater, a man grasped for inspiration to salvage what was left of his soul. Abandoned in the squalid room, Pxan was left hauntedly in the furthest corners of insanity that bubbled in his mind. No one would listen to his plight, denouncing him and claiming his mind was not right. Even though the world left him with nothing, turning their backs to him, he knew the books would never betray him in the same fashion. Faceless pages and books yet to be read ogled puppy eyes, ready to be penned by the madman. “Pxan! Pxan! Over here! To me!” Clamored the unpublished manuscripts. Pxan’s fingers quivered nervously, thoughts of failure flooded his mind. Wanting to surrender to the pressure. “No!” He cried. “I’ve had enough of writing.” Books with eyes all stared at him, begging for the tales to be written. Their pleaful eyes were all that Pxan needed to be moved to writing again. The man sighed and raised his pen again, stroking the first letters of inspiration that bore fruit from his mind. A maddening tale of a policeman, cultists and a violent revenge… -Currently on Hiatus while writing the second volume.The first volume is up. I will take a few days to rewrite a few chapters.

8 331I Come In Peace
Mel is just your average college student who reads wuxia and xianxia novels. He had just been working on the wikia of one of his favorites, Overturning the Heavens, when he is transported into the world and given a small task: save the Colorful Peaks from imminent destruction, one in which he read about in Overturning the Heavens. No biggie. He got fifteen years - ten more than the main character, Xin Feng, had in the novel - so he should have everything he needed and more.
8 181STAR WARS: Knights of the Old Republic
Four thousand years before Anakin Skywalker was born, the Jedi thrived as the guardians of peace in the galaxy. The Republic, weakened by a costly war with the Mandalorians, faces now another great threat. A false Sith Empire created by two fallen Jedi, Revan and Malak, has risen from the ashes of that war. Now the Republic is on the brink of defeat to their once great hero, now turned Darth Revan. Hoping to protect the Republic at all costs, the Jedi dispatch an elite strike force to capture the Dark Lord. To the dismay of the Jedi, Revan is betrayed and killed by his apprentice Darth Malak, who proclaims himself the new Dark Lord of the Sith. Now with the entire galaxy at stake, the Jedi and the Republic must go to extreme lengths if they are to survive the seemingly endless forces the new Sith ruler commands. Only by the will of the Force, will they survive... This is a novelization of the popular video game by Bioware. One of my favorite stories within the Star Wars universe, I am putting my own little twists and style on this story in a way I could see potentially fitting into the new canon by Disney. I will be releasing new chapters periodically with the goal of trimming the story down a little bit as well. Enjoy, and of course constructive criticism always welcome, and if you like what you're reading, consider voting for my story.
