《Grasping》Chapter 30: The question
Advertisement
Finally done checking out my abilities, I decided to save figuring out the changes to my soul at a later time. I found that my apo- former apostle and the new goddess of mischief, Dice, was staring at me. Immediately, she got down into a kneel and greeted me.
" Lord Magnus!"
She stared into my eyes with anticipation.
" Stand my dear Dice, you are a god now. Come give me the hug you promised me."
Her eyes lit up in joy and she jumped at Magnus, giving him a tight hug.
" So! My lord di-"
" Call me Magnus."
" Bu-"
" Come on now, you are a god too."
" M-magnun-s"
The girl bit blushed due to her blunder. Magnus simply smiled and spoke.
" To answer your question, no I did not figure out how the ascension works. I did find out why this world's gods have their emotions dulled. I managed to save some of Rory's emotions and most of yours."
" Oh, Rory! Where is she? The other gods?"
" Not sure, this is my first time entering the 5th dimension. Your welcome, by the way."
Dice blushed at his remark and thanked him."
" Thank you, Lord Magnus!"
Magnus swatted her head.
" Stop with the lord nonsense."
The goddess chuckled and ran ahead.
" What are we waiting for?! Let's go find the rest of the gods."
" Wait!"
Magnus called out to the Dice.
" I must ask you a question. It is important."
" What is it, you c-"
Dice stopped and turned around, only to see Magnus' serious expression.
" You must know, as an apostle. I am different from the rest of the gods. I am foreign, an outsider. I am a traveller. Will you, my daughter, travel with me?"

Dice schooled her expressions and put serious thought into her god's question. A question that would change her destiny. Seeing this, Magnus began rambling.
" We could gain power together, research new things, see new things-"
" My Lord, what would happen if I don't travel with you?"
Magnus stopped and gulped.
" N-nothing. I will leave and maybe visit you once in a while..."
Dice smiled and asked.
" Will we cause some mischief on our travels?"
" Yes... Yes! A lot of mischief!"
Magnus promised.
" Then, all right. I will travel with you, my lord." Dice beamed at her father.

Oracle by Default
Oracles are known as divine handouts passed down from the Holy Creator. There are times when evil exist and the Holy Creator wishes to intervene, to which the title of the Oracle is bestowed upon an individual to become the Creator's will in physical form. The Oracle's mission is to then gather heroes from different races to purge the evil. “For the reckoning that is to come, all are tested. Thou shall be the shadow of which valiant souls shine and guide thee through harsh trials. Till oblivion comes, do not turn astray but to continue down the path thou chosen to walk. Lastly, thou must not see eye to eye with, but against the world.” A mysterious man engraved a seal onto Kihet before saving him from being consumed by the flames. The seal seems to have a strong connection with the legends of the Oracle and a Tower with no entrance that suddenly sprouted near the village. Throughout years, his efforts to study the strange tower remained fruitless. Then one day, the village decided it was time for his friends and him to become envoys to look for the potential evil the Holy Creator detected. Before Kihet can set off on his journey alongside his friends, he has his own set of problems to overcome against the village. Note: It's slow. There is romance, but it plays a small role that I don’t know if I should add it in the tags. Main story starts at Chapter 12. Chapters before do contain meaningful context for the rest of story.
