Chapter 32
when I was three years old there was a huge storm, lightning and torrential rain starting and putting out fires left and right. When lightning struck our house it lit a fire inside, where it was dry. My parents wrapped me up in slightly burnt blanket, I didn't know it at the time but it was enchanted to be resistant to fire and had seen some use, then they left me in the crib. From my position I could easily watch them burn to death, they didn't even try to save themselves. Watching my parents burn to death was my earliest memory. After that I was taken up to my current home, but that's a story for another time.
"let me get this straight, my mother has waited to reincarnate for 12 years just to talk to me?" jack
"yes" jackline
"why haven't you told me this?" jack
"she asked me not to." jackline
"fine, where is she?" jack
"right here" jackline
When she says that a rather pretty woman in her late twenties appears from the surrounding blackness. She is tall with
flowing black hair and brown eyes. She has a motherly face that isn't smiling.
"looking into those cold, unfeeling eyes. Do you care about anything in the world? Or is it all just an irritation to you?"
mother
"there are things in the world that I love, things that I enjoy, things that I care about. But they are few and far between"
jack
"you have become extraordinarily strong in your life, but, I'm disappointed in you." mother
"what?" jack
"you have done great thing, yes, but you are a cold, emotionless man. When you were born I had hoped you would become a great, loving man, like your father." mother

"where is he anyway" jack
"he decided to reincarnate years ago, saying that he could watch his son become such a horrible monster. I agree, even if you've done many great, and good, things you are a dark, evil man." mother
"am I truly evil?" jack
"I just said so didn't I?" mother
"the correct answer is no. Good and evil are both abstract concepts that have no place outside of fantasy, light isn't good
and dark isn't evil, they both simply exist" jack
"I disagree, you are still-"mother
"shut up." jack
"excuse me?" mother
"I said, shut up. I don't care about your opinion of me. 8 years ago I would have. If you want to chat and have a good time,
go ahead! But if you want to ridicule me for being a failure of a son, your words will fall on deaf ears. I don't care about you, or what you have to say. If you're done you can leave." jack
At this she just stares, eyes wide with shock.
"if your not going to leave, then I will. See you, well probably not but you get it." jack
She continues to stare at me before muttering.
"he had the right idea of leaving after all." mother
When she said that she just vanished.
"what happened to her?" jack
"she reincarnated, into an elf" jackline
"will she retain any memories?" jack
"very little, with no details" jackline
"that's fine" jack
"it's about time for you to wake up" jackline
"one moment. lilith! I know your there! I can smell you!" jack
"aww, I've been caught. So, how do I smell" lilith
"sweet" jack
"you have about 2 seconds till you wake up" jackline
When I wake up, which is around 2 am, I find Johanna grinding against my left arm and Lucy on my right, which isn't all that surprising as the full moon is tomorrow. I use my psychological magic to make both of them respond to pleasure more and start to play with them with my hands, much to their delight. lililth is the next to wake up and she gets onto a mounted position, only to be pushed off by a wolf who takes the spot for herself. I expand the magic to all of them, much to the delight of everyone. lilith then gives me a hot, deep kiss. Interesting fact about succubus saliva, when swallowed it acts as an aphodisiac as well as boosting vitality and stamina. Part of the way through I figure out a way to make

we spend a couple hours having some fun time till sun up.
I get up and go meet up with asmodeus, who agreed to teach me magic. I ask Johanna and lilith to train ghost.
"so, what all do you want to learn?" asmodeus
"everything you can teach me." jack
"great" asmodeus
I spend the entire day improving my magic skills, with satisfactory results. One problem, he didn't teach me anything about psychological magic. When I brought it up he said this.
"psychological magic? Stop making things up boy." asmodeus

Slime of Gluttony
_____ ___, a completely and utterly deplorable person. Lazy, apathetic, and unmotivated. He spends his time as a shut-in, wasting his life away doing nothing of importance. This is the life of the man, a life of no importance. At the impulse of desiring food, he left his small and cramped apartment. Regretting his actions immediately, he was left with the prospect of a complete panic attack due to the numerous amount of people outside at that day. However, he pressed on, determined to find some sort of delicious food to consume. Life had other plans for him. He gets hit by a car, and after hearing strange words from an even stranger voice, he dies. However, minutes, hours, maybe even days later, he awakes, his senses of smell, sight, and hearing robbed of him. Author's Note: This is my first story on Royal Road, so it might not be the best. Although, I hope you enjoy! I'll probably write around 2000 words or more per chapter, but on average a bit more. If you're wondering, the cover art is drawn by me, just in case you thought I wasn't giving credit to the creator.This story might often times lean more into the comedy side of things, but stuff can still get pretty serious at times, especially in the later chapters. The story isn't super dark or anything, but character death is of course going to be a thing. Who? Well, you'll find out, eventually. Also, I'll upload chapters on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday. I hope you enjoy reading this little hobby of mine!
