《Heart of Creation》CH 6: Seeing Zeon For the First Time
Advertisement
Geography class was boring as always, I had to learn most of this to learn to read. The Temple only had books on history, geography, and Politics. Our temple geography books went into ore deposits, where this one didn't.
We live in the city of Karh, which is the capital of Arlan, and is located on the western shore. Arlan's western border is a shallow straight called Breached Coast. We have two neighbors to the south, the White Sea's only coastal country Remo, with its twin capitols Caliardo, where the queen resides, and Albino, the King's city.
Slightly to the east of them is the landlocked country of Togarini, home of the Sylvian, with the capitol of Kaine. Our northern border is the country of Galgados, and although its western border is the Breached Coast, and the Northern border is the North Sea, Galgados's Capitol, Hecate, is near its eastern border.
Our Western border is the largest country East of the Breached coast, and stretches from Arlan to its west, to the Interior Sea, on its east; which on the map looks like a Gulf, with an island in the middle.
Abel has three major cities, Sepher, in the South west, and closest to Arlan, Yirath, which is in the south east, but far enough from the coast to not be able to be targeted by pirates. Then in the North east is the city of Tiberias.
On the globe I'm currently studying, Abel's capitol of Archangel appears to the north of Karh, and center of the equator. Making the majority of Arlan in the Southern Hemisphere.
These four countries are the only ones that we are being taught this year. Today, my class schedule changes, and I have Independent Study instead of math. In my old life, I had just earned my masters degree in physics, at 17. My my missing language memories included the symbols of the formulae, but once I learned the symbols again, let's just say I don't need to learn 5 year old math.

The school hocked it up to me having an earth affinity gift, so I can manipulate physics. Although I still don't know how. But my Independent Study today is with an earth Zeonist. I'm looking forward to finally learning something about it.
Mr. Simon calls for us to put our books away, and then instructs us to get out our math books. Since my aptitude was tested in secret, my least favorite person was the one who spoke up when I stood to walk out.
"Aww, the poor gifted doesn't even know math, as expected of a temple brat." Charles was officially the only student in this class who only ever read notes from me. A few students would get them once in a while, just to keep up the act. But I never used my voice if I directed a comment to him. I walked up to the front of the class, and wrote out the formula for the golden ratio, then hydraulic pressure differentials, then the formula for vectored velocity. Then left a message:
'You have not caught up to me, or close to me. When you can explain these, il give you more.'
"Ms. Heart, this one and this one are far above what I'm allowed to teach." He then pointed to the golden ratio formula , and then what he said dumbfounded me. "But what is this one?"
For the first time in this life, I face-palmed. I then took out my note pad, wrote the formula, and then simply wrote: 'this is a simplified version of what I call the Golden Ratio. It's found throughout nature. I handed him the note, then left to go to my class.
"She has affinity with these pathways, maybe there is something to this." I heard him mumble as I left.

I think I just started something.
When I got to my new class room a very beautiful woman, comparable to Natalie, was already in the room, she nodded to Natalie, then looked at me. I then saw another woman on the floor, bound and gagged.
"I didn't realize this one is protected by the sisters, I will revoke the contract. Pardon my intrusion of your charge, Sister Natalie." She nodded, then snapped her fingers, and disappeared into a cloud of black smoke.
"Demeter help us, the Sisterhood." She ran to the other woman, unbound her, grabbed me, I felt her move Zeon around us, and my vision went blurry, I was then back at the Temple.
"Stay here, I have to take care of this. Go straight to Oracle Darien, tell him these words first: Sister Natalie is hunting." After making me say it three times, she disappeared from in front of me. Then it hit me, she has the Gift, and uses the air pathway.
I ran straight to the office, and when I said those words, Darien looked mad. He then pushed me into a hidden room behind his office.

My Best Friend is an Eldritch Horror
Good things come to those who wait. Damien Vale didn't, and now he's bound to an Eldritch creature from beyond the farthest reaches of the universe. It's unfathomable, utterly evil, and likes to be called Henry. To Damien, none of that mattered. He was going to learn magic, and he'd be damned if he let something as small as this set him back. When Damien started his first year at a mage college, he didn't expect it to be easy. However, when he's assigned to room with a strange girl that has magic that even Henry is wary of, Damien realizes things might not be so easy. He sets out to accomplish his life goal of becoming a powerful mage, all the while dealing with a murderous professor, an eldritch creature that's created a persona to act like a teenager, and a new roomate that's far more perceptive than he'd like. As Damien struggles to deal with the rammifications of the monster within him, a disturbing fact comes to life: Henry might not be the only eldritch creature on the mortal plane, and he's the only one that can stop them. NOTE: This story is progression fantasy with some very basic litRPG elements (such as a wristband that shows a character's stats). It is not a full on litRPG - it's a progression fantasy story with litRPG elements. The story will contain some romance, but it will not be explicit nor will it take over the story. It starts off slow, but will pick up speed quickly around chapter 26. Enjoy! My Best Friend is an Eldritch Horror was origonally started as a way to thank my patreons. I will be keeping the patreon updated 15 chapters in advance. Enjoy! Cover art by Skyedrun!
