《I Am the "God of Death", Whatever That Means. (Original)》Goddess of Music. Chapter 22
Advertisement
The pit-pat of someone or something running can be heard throughout the empty halls of the Temple of Myria. Being as new as it is, the halls are especially barren compared to the other temples, but the white marble with gold accenting makes up for the hollowness inside.
The one making this pit-pat sound was a man by the name of Stephon, who was a devout follower of the goddess Myria. He opens two enormous doors and his eyes began to be flooded with a brilliant light. He ears were also met with the sound of a sound that only his goddess could make, or so he thought.
As he runs up the massive stairs leading to the stage where his goddess is, the beautiful sound of music abruptly stops. She slowly turns to him with a look of seriousness and anger. He begins to sweat bullets as he knows not to interrupt her when she is playing her piano.
"What is it now Stephon?"
Her melodic voice had absolutely no authority to it, but her facial expression did, she was definitely angered. He began to stutter as he does not know what to believe anymore and the fact he was still panting from running so much doesn't help.
"I followed Sir Sekreath as you asked and kept an eye on him. He seems to have made a deal with the God of Dragons and tried to finish his achievement by making two gods kill each other."
Myria's face is filled with shock, as she would not expect her brother to have gone off without notifying her first. She was glad to have sent someone to watch over him, but something else had her worried.
"Well, by the fact that we are still here and the planet is still rotating, I take it he failed. He must be on his way home now correct?"

"Not quite."
"Not quite?"
Stephon lets out a quick shiver as he racks his brain to think of a way to tell her the news. She loved her brother dearly and he had no idea how she would react to this news.
"SPIT IT OUT."
The once melodic voice now turned satanic as she was basically hissing at him. The pressure in the air began to rise as Myria was losing her patience.
"You see.... Your brother was killed."
"Oh, that's not too bad. He will just come back as he did before."
The once evil tone became carefree as she knew that god candidates were just revived after death so he would be back soon. She began to play the piano again and waved Stephon away.
"But he won't be coming back... He was killed by the God of Death."
The sound of high noted keys pierced the air as Myria messed up a note. Her pupils became small and she slowly looked up at Stephon. She blinked a few times and put her hand on her forehead.
"My master warned me about this man... If what master said was true, then Sekreath won't be coming back... He won't be coming back... He won't be coming back..."
Myria kept repeating her statement over and over as an intense feeling of grief and sadness began to wash over her like a tsunami. The only person in the world that wanted to protect her was dead. She got up and slowly walked back to her room, but Stephon had more information.
"That's not it, he killed him... While listening to music."
The shuffle that Myria was doing back to her room turned into a painstaking slow crawl.
'How could this be? Only I can make music. It is what makes me special right? This bastard while not only take my brother from me, but he can also take away what makes me a god?!'

The sound of a horrid shriek could be heard from miles away as the Goddess of Music had basically lost everything in a matter of seconds. Stephon ears started to bleed as he was not able to cover them up in time. Myria finally regained composure after that horrible display and thought about her options. She decided she would contact the God of Dragons and find out he helped her brother and if he could help her get revenge. It might be risky, but it needed to be done if she wanted to finish her achievements.
"God of Death, you will fucking know pain."
*Back at M.A.A.D. City*
"ACHOO!"
"Are you getting sick Master?"
"Do Gods even get sick Sekreath?"
"I don't know really, I never did."
"Anyways, on with the plan, this is a pivotal point in our lives right now."
"Indeed. What shall we do?"
"I have an idea."

Tempest Rogue
This story follows Auron, a man who has been plagued with vivid nightmares his entire life. While running away from a beating, a splitting headache causes him to fall to his knees. Once again his nightmares bleed into reality. The next "episode" he has brings him from the scene of his nightmare, to a posionous swamp. To make matters worse his memories from earth are fading, and these nightmares that plagued his childhood, filled with darkness and a red coocoon, are back and worse than ever. As he clings to the only memories he has left, he is forced to fight through a world of brutal blood thirsty monsters, dungeons, and a complex magic system governed by an ancient agreement. First time writing any sort of story. Everything is still a work in progress. As I improve on my writing I will go back and edit parts. Early chapters are subject to change as I grow my ability. I am going to try my best to write this world and improve as I go. My goal is to make my dream come to life through the medium of text. This is why I wanted to post it here. Feel free to comment, and bring constructive criticism. Hope you enjoy! More info (Spoiler warning): only read if you are picky, read a lot, and want to waste no time with a story you may not want read. This book is a litrpg. This means it contains stat tables, and other game elements. (Which you may gloss over if you would like) It is written in a fantasy world, in the style of a progression fantasy. The main character grows in power as the story plays out. My characters are written to my best ability, but you may find them immature. The MC has to adjust to fighting, and killing which he struggles with for a while. His partner is a magical salamander who is a friend and mentor. The world building, monsters, and descriptions are also low tier. (I am working hard to change that!) If you are okay reading something by someone who is just getting started then welcome! I am doing my best, and incrementally improving as I go.

Programmable Magic
Our main character, Reo van Dijck, tries to survive in a world where magic-spells are stored in game-like-cartridges. Only a few lucky ones can use them though. These chosen ones are venerated and worshipped like celebrities, unbelievable riches lie only a single dungeon-exploration away for them, they are called Machia. What will happen to our protagonist when he awakens as a Machia and discovers that he can actually program these magic-cartridges?... The Earth also changed drastically since the dungeons appeared, how could it not? These unknown, giant towers suddenly started spewing out hordes of fiends and monstrosities. Only The Machia were able to defend against these attacks on humanity. Countries were destroyed, safe-havens were build and then yet again destroyed. Eventually humanity adapted, like it always does. The economy was rebuild and centered around these new towers, these dungeons, the treasures they hold outweigh their dangers. Life is relatively safe again, for most at least… Read about Reo’s exploits, an immigrant from the Netherlands, as he tries to honor his dead parents and… find love? Establish a Guild?! Live the Ideal Harem life?!! BECOME PIRATE KING?!!! Okay maybe not that last one, but Reo will definitely leave his mark behind on this world full of mystery. This story features romance, comradery, an interesting power system and a post-apocalyptic world with amusing characters, what more do you want?! No seriously, I’m always open to constructive feedback. This story also displays my interpretation of a magic-coding-language (based on JAVA). Although knowledge about coding helps, you can also enjoy the story without it 😊.
