《Grasping》Chapter 22: Comfort
Advertisement
Nuwa woke up startled. She clutched her head and tried to remember what had happened. The last thing she remembered was that her master had returned. Everything else felt so far in the past and so irrelevant that she immediately looked around for her master.
The first thing she noticed was that she was not standing up in the kitchen but on a bed.
' How did I end up here? Did master abandon me?'
She started tearing up and continued looking around frantically. Suddenly, her master appeared next to her on the bed and stared at her unblinkingly. Nuwa flinched, jumped off the bed and crawled to a corner of the room. Then, she proceeded to cower while staring at the boy. Magnus, however, simply gestured for her to come over and sit with him on the bed. He patted on the spot on the bed next to him and waited.
Sensing that she had no choice, the confused girl with jumbled memories made her way over to the bed. Sitting down next to her master, she twitched multiple times. Her body was afraid of the boy next to her. Yet, all she could feel was infatuation for the one she presumed to be a god. Her god.
While staring at him, Nuwa realised that she felt empty, incomplete. It felt as if someone had taken away something that had been a part of her for years. Something she never really noticed until now. Now, that thing was gone and she was unsure whether it would ever come back.
Her master did not speak, neither did she. However, the feeling of incompleteness was daunting. Subconsciously, Nuwa felt that she would go crazy if she did not fill the void, so she did something drastic. In an act of complete trust and bravery, she put her head on the monster's leg. A lap pillow essentially. The monster in question allowed it to happen.

Magnus had been observing the girl's turbulent mind the entire interaction and felt bad. Ironically the dimension eater felt bad for breaking his maid's mind. Since her actions, plays into how he had envisioned his relationship with the girl he had allowed her to show her affection.
He decided that having her suffer from Stockholm syndrome was better than letting her go into a fit of madness. He started giving head pats again and made a promise to the obviously obsessed girl.
" I promise you Nuwa, I shall visit you every once every month. I shall come at least once every month but for now... I shall stay. I need a break for a few months."
His mental health was important after all.

Helena's Plane
Paul, a bored young man, wakes up in a white room. A young woman tells him he has died, that she is some kind of god who likes videogames and he will be reborn in an RPG-esque world so she and her fellow god-friends can watch him for entertainment.Unfortunately, the goddess forgot to give Paul most of the obligatory, obvious cheat-abilities to make him rush to power in easy mode. Paul embraces his new life full of clichés, perverts, magic, loot and action. And animal girls.18+ !CONTAINS GRAPHIC VIOLENCE AND SEXUAL CONTENT! (Actual sex is still hard to find, but you will get it. Eventually. Sporadically.) =================Author's note:So, this is my very first novel. It will be poorly written, has a huge info-dump disguised as a first chapter (to be rewritten. At some point in the future. I guess.), and may or may not offend everyone for different reasons. Perhaps you will just find it boring, which would be even worse. The description turned out a bit comedic, but the story isn't overly so.I have a rough idea of where this will be going, but expect some bumps on the road, as well as logic holes, flat characters and a lot of borderline copyright infringements from all the ideas I got reading other works. And did I mention I'm not a native speaker? No? Well, expect some embarrassing grammar and wording choices.The main character is a more or less normal guy, without high morals, martial arts skills or even a desirable goal in life. There is mature content, in terms of violence and sexual content. It won't become a full-blown erotic novel, and it may or may not be your cup of tea when it comes to the type of content.Critics welcome.

A last minute reprieve comes in the form of the slightly mad cartographer Calan’dal, who hires him and four other death row inmates as bodyguards for his dangerous expedition into the bowls of a labyrinthine dungeon known as the Descarrian Abyss.

Alongside his new elven master Arahn is joined by Morvar: a half-troll brute, Cathran: a young herbalist’s apprentice who professes her innocence, and Evan and Lem: a pair of thieving goblin twins. Together they descend into the Abyss, knowing they will have to work together or else perish in the bowels of the dark labyrinth, becoming victims of the deadly traps and ferocious creature’s legend to reside within.
