Chapter 56, Doubts
Don't talk about me like I'm going to die or else you're going to be the one dead.
The sunlight woke me up, after a night of hell I was finally awake and was ready to get my tests and checkups over with.
I wanted to see Dani, she needed to tell me everything that is going on with Jaden.
After hours of checkups, medicines, tests and a few meals, I was finally allowed to see my visitors.
I looked at the door many times but nobody opened it, I lost hope in visitors and decided to go back to sleep.
I woke up to the sound of talking, I wanted to open my eyes but they seemed to be talking about me.
So I kept my eyes closed and tried to make out the voices, I realized it was the doctor and another nurse talking about me.
They were speaking about how bad I was, I understand that my state wasn't the best but it didn't mean I was in the worst state ever.
My breathing slowed down, when I want to listen in to a conversation, I really listen to it.
"She's really bad, I don't think she's going to make it out of the hospital Marcus."
The nurse said as she moved around the room, my heart was beating fast.
I've seen this in movies and right after the doctor responds, the patient is murdered.
"I know Sheila, but we have to continue telling the family she's going to get better."
Doctor Marcus said, I felt him move back to me.
I bit my tongue making sure I didn't make a single sound that would notify them that I was awake and listening into their conversations.
"Yeah but why can't we just tell them that it's time to start booking a casket."

My blood was boiling, I opened my eyes with the quickness.
Marcus jumped back in fear, Sheila looked at me like she was caught cheating on a math test.
Don't talk about me like I'm going to die or else you're going to be the one dead.
I said threateningly, grabbing the scalpel from the table near me and pointed it towards them.
Like I said, I was scared that they were going to kill me so I couldn't take a chance.
"Now, Natalie put the scalpel down."
Marcus said trying to calm me down but it wasn't working, Sheila tried to grab it from me but I accidentally cut her arm.
I wasn't trying to harm anyone but I was trying to protect myself.
"Get away from me!"
I got out of bed, I was wearing a hospital dress and grabbing onto my IV monitor.
Marcus and Sheila tried to grab the scalpel but I didn't dare give it up, I felt like I was going crazy.
I felt sick and like I was going to pass out but I didn't want to fall asleep while they were in my room.
They had called four nurses, I pointed the scalpel towards every single one of them.
I wish I paid attention to my side because when I looked away for a moment, Sheila had injected me with a needle.
Everything looked blurry and I soon passed out, I felt cold.
In my head, I was going to die and I was scared.
I ended back into the waiting room, it was freezing this time and I was only in my hospital dress.
I wanted to fight those nurses, I wanted to be alive right now but thanks to Sheila and her Squidward nose looking cereal box self put me to sleep.

I laid down on the ground and screamed my heart out, I was trying to get every single bit of sadness and annoyance out of my body.
I realized now how stupid I was, I shouldn't have took the scalpel and tried harming anyone.
But what was I supposed to do when they were talking about me dying in the hospital and how I wouldn't return home?
Soon I was back in my room, I looked to the side and saw my mom.
I was so glad to see her, everything came pouring out of me.
I told her how cold I was, how I felt sick to my stomach, how I wanted to harm the nurses and most importantly, how they said I was going to die.
My mom looked angry, she walked out of the room and all you heard was her screaming at the nurse and doctor for talking about how I wouldn't survive.
I just laid in bed with a childish smile, nothing could have wiped it off.
My mom returned to the room and grabbed my hand.
"Your blood sugar was low, it made you attack them but what you heard was true."
She told me, I nodded but I was still smiling like a kid.
I didn't know why, I was just satisfied and soon my eyes shut.
I wasn't able to open them and I got scared.
I think I died.

Immovable Mage
What do you call a mage incapable of casting spells? In this story, we usually call him Terry. When the boy is accepted into Arcana Academy, his talent in the pillars of mana foundation awes everyone. All the bigger is the eventual disappointment when Terry turns out to be an utter failure at spellwork. Diagnosis? Major aspect impairment. No cure. Ever. Faced with expulsion, Terry is blessed with the unexpected kindness of others. Terry loses his spot in the Academy but in exchange, he finds a home with a family. Terry starts to train as a pure mana cultivator but never stops looking for his own path as a mage – day after day, season after season, always searching for compatible spellwork… Until finally, Terry’s perseverance earns him a single spell – the only spell he will ever be able to cast. Disclaimers: Chapter Frequency: I aim for one chapter a week. Chapter Length: I try to keep chapters between 3000 and 6000 words. Binge Preference: I plan for 30 chapters per arc. If you want to binge a complete arc, then that is the number to wait for. I will also add a line to chapters indicating the beginning and end of an arc. Advanced Access: I have created a patreon page with early access to four chapters for patrons. What to Expect: Progression fantasy with a western fantasy setting and with eastern fantasy elements. A main character that is forced to explore a very narrow path of magic due to a permanent condition. A main character that is a part of a larger cast. A main character that is growing but won't become the strongest around anytime soon. A story following a single main character but with introduction or theme setting scenes without the main character. What Not to Expect: Edgy grimdark characters – I will never write a sexual violence scene or gory descriptions of torture. I hate reading it and I would hate writing it even more. Romance – romantic relationships will never be the focus of the story and only appear in the background. The main character is preoccupied with other stuff. Other forms of relationships (family, friends, companions) play a bigger role. Cover: The cover art was commisioned from redditor Linh-Nguyen87. The font is alita brush by Inovatype Typefoundry. Overview: 001–030 Arc 1, Cultivating Perseverance: complete. 031–060 Arc 2, Undying Defiance: complete. 061–090 Arc 3, Unyielding Fury: scheduled for publishing. 091–120 Arc 4, Savage Hope: scheduled for publishing. 121–150 Arc 5, Self-Made Fate: first draft in progress. 151–180 Arc 6, Heretic Style: sketching in progress. Further Arcs are still in the sketching and idea collection phase.
