《Another life》Chapter 14
Advertisement
For those of you who don't understand why, and how did this happen. Please read chapter 13 again, cause I have made a few changes. And by few I mean, a lot there's a lot of things that I change that I deleted the previous chapter. Once again for causing this things, I apologize.
----------------------------------------------------
It’s morning, and we start our day by eating breakfast. The food for today breakfast are bread, a soup, and a glass of water. Not to satisfying, but at least eatable.
After that, dad get ready for his new job as a knight. I know what you all thinking, but when apply for the job he paint his hair blue, and cut his hair to make sure he won't get recognize.
Before dad went to work, I ask him to sell the potions I made yesterday. When I said that he look slightly worried probably because he don't like the idea of his son working. So I told him that the money for those potions are for me.
It's not like I intend to use all of them for me, I plan on using 50℅ for myself 30℅ for the family, and 20℅ will be kept for emergencies. Even if I say that I haven't have any earnings yet, so right now this whole thing is just meaningless.
When dad left for work, I start practicing magic. I'm a little bit bored with how I usually train, so today I think of something new.
Usually I would just make a ball of magic, and then increase it the amount, and sometimes meld them. This time I choose to change the shape of my magic, from ball into something more.. Interesting.
First I create a snake like rock figure made from earth magic. It's quality is definitely lower than those of a sculptor but at least it shapes like a snake, and have eyes in it.

Seeing that it went so successful I start creating all sorts of different object from all sorts of elements.
Like, a bird made from fire, a mermaid made from water, a small typhoon made from wind.I even use the advance ones like a salamander made from ice, a dragon made from lightning, and a person with white wing, and black wing made from both light, and dark magic.
Then after I got accustomed to making them, I change them into something else, increasing the amount one by one, and increasing the detail as well.
I was completely drawn into the whole thing, that when I look at the clock it's already 12.00. And just about that it's time for lunch.
For lunch, dad came back for a while to make me one, and quickly left as soon as I'm done. He also gave me the money that he got from selling potions.
We got 20 silvers, 14 silvers from the red one, and the rest from selling the blue one. Let's see, with this much I can buy food, for 2 weeks. I didn't think that I'll get this much just by selling potion, I'll make more potions later, and sell them again.
Not only will I get more money, but I'll also gain experience on using Alchemy. So I'll be hitting 2 birds with one stone if decided to do that.
After dad go back to his work, I wash the dishes, and clean the house of course I use magic for this cause I have never do those things even in my past life, and it look so troublesome to do it by hand.
Next it's time for me to rest for a while, and have a chat with Whis. Yeah, it's pretty sad knowing I'm talking to a book instead of a human. Besides chatting with him, I also experience the “image” once in a while.

After an hour or 2 has passed it's time for me to do grocery shopping so I went outside to buy some food, and some ingredients for Alchemy.
For food, I usually look around first to find the freshest ones there is, with the cheapest price there is. For the ingredients that I need for Alchemy, I just bought at the place with the cheapest price, since almost every ingredients have the same purity and in need of refining.
When I bought those things, I used to carry them while pretending to carry them by holding them. Again, it's to avoid any unwanted attention.
At the house, after I store all of the food I go to my room, and make some potions. Before that I refine all of the ingredients, this is because if I refine them it'll increase the quality of the potions, plus this serve as practice so I can gain more experience when it comes to refining.
Refining the ingredients need a lot of Mana, and focus cause I need to adjust the temperature of the flame, the volume of water/ wind, the amount of time I refine them all, and the moment I need to stop refining them because if I over did it then the quality will drop more than when it used to.
After making those potions, I took a rest, and wait till father came back. When he did, he cook dinner for both of us, and we eat together at the table.
When that's done, we proceed on doing the things we want to do, like practicing magic, or by simply looking outsire and enjoy the view.
When we get sleepy, we sleep. Then in the next morning the whole thing starts over again.
From waking up, to eating breakfast, practicing magic, eating lunch, cleaning the house, grocery shopping, making potions, eating dinner, and sleep. Then repeat it over again the next morning.
This repeating yet not so monotonous lifestyle continue on for days, then to weeks, and eventually to months. And before we knew it 2 years passed in a blink if an eye.
2 whole years filled with these activities passed, and just like that I became 5 years old.

Dream of the Abyss
Elisa Mary Grant died in a hospital bed after being stuck in it for six months, and like any other, her soul drifted away from her husk when she passed. For her, death was a release. It merely meant that she no longer have to wake up in pain, breathing through tubes and have doctors flood her veins with dubious chemicals for “experimental treatment”. Free from her mortal constraints and useless body, she felt… at peace, serene, even. Death is bliss, after all, when objectively living sucked to the point of extreme. Therefore, there was no reason to mourn at all and she knew she definitely didn't. ... That was until, on her way for a proper reincarnation, she found herself rudely interrupted and left stranded in the great NoWhere. “Wonderful,” she remarked as she floated in the [Beyond], “Just when I thought that suicide is the answer.” Author's note: Updates every Tuesday-Wednesday, probably some time in between. ... P.S Notes: Contains existential questions and nihilistic themes, rather philosophical. Will be rather sluggish until the MC gets her shit together. P.SS Notes: Story takes time to develop. And maybe uncomfortable. It's not gonna be action-packed or filled with battles, I think. Anyway, it is kinda unusual. P. SSS Notes: It is not LitRpg. Don't be fooled.

This is very much a work in progress so please understand if there's any mistakes or errors. Not only that but I am a novice so that kind of thing is to be expected. Thank you!

I have a Twitter now cause it would not stop bugging me when I wanted to look at news for a game, the link is here, https://twitter.com/JustAPhoenix2 .
