Author’s Note: So I’m writing this with literally like 17 hours of no sleep. Apologies if there’s an excessive amount of errors in my grammar and spelling. Also,, this is a day early, as I couldn't get one out last Monday. It's a small thing, but it'll have to do as an apology.

- 2nd Journey, 1st day walking

“I have a new hate for walking.”

Such were Azad’s opinions on his current situation.

“Hope I find a town or something soon, I don’t want to be naked for the rest of my life. Just because you streak doesn’t mean I have to as well George.”

Needless to say, Azad wasn’t happy. George had left him in a less then desirable place to be and he had no ability to leave it except just walking until he made it out.

“It’s getting dark, I should stop for the night, though I don’t have anywhere to hide. Not like there has been anything I need to hide from anyways.”

Although Azad had yet to feel tired, he still felt it was safer to rest during the night instead of walking endlessly. Especially this night, as he wanted to try to use magic, despite knowing nothing about it.

When he chose a place to sit and rest for the night, he did the stereotypical light novel method for magic sensing. He closed his eyes, cleared his mind, and breathed rhythmically; attempting to sense something inside of himself, or whatever it was they did. Always worked for the Main Characters, why couldn’t it work for him?

Azad did this for a couple hours before he felt something. It wasn’t where light novels usually described, in the pit of his stomach, but instead in his head. More specifically, his brain. It felt like a mass of compressed smoke.

“How do I know what that feels like?” Asking this question made him lose his concentration, losing track of the mist like substance. Azad couldn’t help but ask himself this question though, as he had never encountered such a thing. Another 45 minutes were spent relocating the mass.

Once he had found the stuff again, he attempted to will it through his body somehow. It was easier to do than expected, but still required all of Azad’s concentration to move small distances and took many retries before he managed to get it all the way down his right arm, to his hand.

After he did this, he did the thing where you imagine what it is you want the magic shit to do. Some bullshit thing like that. How does that even work? The magic can understand what the fuck you’re thinking and automatically knows whatever it needs to do to vaguely replicate such a thing. Bullshit. That isn’t how physics work damn it! These were the thoughts that sent Azad on a few more retries.

Once he had done everything again, he just used his head to imagine some stuff like his hand wielding fire. He didn’t expect it to work like that, so he was rather carless with his thoughts regarding what he wanted it to do. Unluckily for him it worked perfectly.

Azad opened his eyes after feeling a searing pain, only to see his hand engulfed by a pure white flame.

“Oh holy mother of fucking shit!”

Azad began to yell, scream, kick, and roll on the ground as his hand was burnt surprisingly slowly by the flame.

“OH GOD MAKE IT STOP!”

“You did this yourself, you have to stop it yourself. Plus, it still hasn’t been a year yet, sheesh! And you mortal say that us gods are bad a time!”

“FUCK YOU GEORGE! NOW IT NOT THE TIME FOR YOUR SHIT!”

“Fine then, see if I care! And here I was gonna tell you to just reverse the process.”

The words said by the putting god made Azad feel stupid. At least it would if he wasn’t in complete pain and attempting to do such a daunting task as reversing the process while on fire. The next hour was hell for Azad, but he managed to put out the fire.

“How the hell will I jerk off now!? I never learned how to do it with my left hand!”

While the way it was implied was less than appropriate for the matter, his right hand was indeed unusable. His right hand was coated black and cracked in places, allowing blood to ooze out.

“God I feel like Dumbledore. Only dumber.”

Azad then suddenly felt extremely drowsy, and fell over asleep.

- 2nd Journey 2nd Day

Azad awoke to sourness, followed by a headache, and then by a moment of forgetfulness as he couldn’t remember what had happened for him end up in such a situation. Then he remembered, and wished he hadn’t. He felt that what he had done was extremely stupid. Why hadn’t he been more careful? This is just like what happened with the fish thing.

“Next time, don’t use my jerking off hand.”

Azad wouldn’t be so stupid as to harm his only means of sexual pleasure! Especially when he hadn’t seen another human for more than a week.

“We’ll use my left hand next time, but only after my right hand heals. Don’t want to have no hands to jack off. Oh, and being able to do less important things, like defend myself!”

Of course Azad was joking about protecting himself being less important than jacking off. Protecting himself was above jacking off by a bit.
