《Grasping》Chapter 37: Thinking
Advertisement
Nuwa stared at the blue globe of a planet, yet another iteration of her beloved's favoured world, Earth. However, she was not thinking about the destruction that she had intentionally wrought nor the 'salvation' that she had brought. Rather she was thinking of her 'beloved', Magnus. Even away from him, she could not help but think of him.
It was as if she was programmed to do exactly so when away from his presence.
' Perhaps he really did program me. That would make a lot of sense. Maybe that is why he let me out of Cenere so easily. Is he not worried that I would simply run away?'
Nuwa was thoroughly confused by Magnus' actions. Initially, he acted like a hunter, ready to kill whatever it was that he fished from the river of space and time. Then, he acted like a regular man, finding a naked woman drenched and sitting next to a riverbank. Then like a kidnaper who had found his fetishes all packed into one girl. A scientist who had found a new experiment. A caring father who had accidentally hurt his daughter.
' For the past thousand years or so as a husband who had just wed. What a weirdo... Could he not have proposed or something. Would have been easier to turn him down. Instead, he had to act like a proper caring boyfriend.'
Sighing, Nuwa began staring at a rapidly burning down continent on the currently still partially destroyed planet.
' Australia burned again? Damn, those humans there need to get a system laid for those forests.'
No longer caring about something that seemed to occur daily in that particular continent, Nuwa continued reminiscing about her beloved.
Over the past 1000 years that they had been together, Magnus seemed to have developed a fear of death. Despite the fact that Nuwa was 99% certain that he was well and thoroughly immortal and thoroughly unable to die. After all, if one can make other people immortal he himself should be one too.

' Perhaps I should remind him when I get back. I wonder if other beings like him also give out immortality like candy. Wait, do I even want to go back?'
A relatively dumb question, she thought to herself. Of course, Nuwa had to go back. She needed to see her dear Magnus after all. However, she could not help but be confused. On one hand, she was certain that she had been kidnapped by Magnus, yet it felt more accurate to say that she washed up on Magnus' beach and he simply gave her shelter. At least that is what Magnus had told her when she had asked him why he had taken her in.
She could not help but believe him. Nuwa stared blankly at the planet.
' It is all according to the perspective I suppose. That is something he said too. Hmm...'

Nouvelle chance dans la fantaisie.
Alors qu'il meurt trop tôt, un homme est envoyé vers un autre monde pour achever sa vie. Par la volonté du dieu de la chance, rien de moins, il a maintenant une nouvelle chance...dans un monde de fantaisie. Certains diraient que c'est un véritable cauchemar d'être ainsi envoyé loin de tout ce que l'on connait, pour lui...c'est un rêve qui devient réalité. (Pour ceux qui sont déjà lecteurs de mon histoire "new chance in fantasy", il s'agit ici de la traduction française. Je ne comptais pas vraiment en faire une au début mais certaines personnes auxquelles je tiens ne sont tout simplement pas assez habile en anglais pour lire "l'original". Etant donné que google traduction, mis à part pour une bonne tranche de rire, ne fera clairement pas l'affaire, je vais me faire un plaisir de traduire mon histoire ici. Si cela ne permet même qu'à une seule personne d'apprécier mon histoire alors qu'elle ne le pouvait pas en anglais, je pourrais me dire que ça valait le coup^^. ps: il est fort probable que les noms, et de personnages, et des attaques, restent en anglais. Je trouve que cela à plus de charme. Au cas où vous auriez le moindre soucis de compréhension, je me ferai un plaisir d'expliquer ce qu'elles veulent dire, mais ce ne seront pas des tirades shakespeariennes non plus, rassurez-vous^^.
