《I Was Given A Second Chance, In a World of Fantasy?!》Chapter 6 - Mina's Curse

He stared at the girl who was embracing him, "You.. You're from my school.." he spoke quietly with shock.
How was a girl from his school here, with him? Even if God did put her here, how long ago was it..? Did she know him?
The girl lessened her embrace on Keima, as she wiped the tears from her eyes. She stared up at him and smiled with peace, a few tears still dropped down the side of her face.
"I thought you'd died, Keima..!" Her voice was shaky, which showed that she'd been extremely worried. She seemed really happy to see him up and alive. Though, Keima didn't seem to even know the girl.
"Who are you..?" He asked with a stutter, as the girl released her grip on him.
"Who am I..?" She quietly whispered. "I guess it makes sense you wouldn't remember me.." she added,
"You were always there, just keeping to yourself.. and even let those around bully you.." She continued to speak for awhile, after beginning to cry again.
As he saw her cry, he couldn't help but reach out and embrace her like she did to him. He did just basically be a douchebag.
As he hugged her, he started to feel sick, and a small trail of blood went down his nose.
"It's.. alright." He spoke, and tried to endure the pain, resisting unconsciousness. His head began to become foggy, and Mina was all he saw. She held a great big weapon, and laughed.
"You're scared, aren't you?" She sadistically smiled as she spoke. She repeated those words several times, to what seemed like forever. Or at least, until Keima fell flat. Making him lean on the girl he hardly could embrace without fear.

He later found himself in the same bed from earlier, he seemed to have been cleaned and bandaged up again. The girl from earlier was asleep, her head was laying on her arms, which were on the bed.
"No matter how hard I try, I see her.." he whispered to himself, and slid a little away from the girl who was sleeping on the bed.
Mina wouldn't leave his mind for a long time it seemed, almost as if she had emplanted herself into his brain by simply causing him pain, and giving him a false sense of hope.
Keima reached out to touch the girl's long white hair, after distracting himself from Mina's curse. He hesitated to touch her, though in the end he softly touched a long lock of her silky white hair. "So this is what a girl's hair's like.." he said quietly to himself, before letting it go, and laid back down. He tried to fall asleep, but Mina was the only thing he saw. At least, until the girl crawled up onto the bed, pressing her front up against his back.
Keima turned his head and looked at the girl with surprise and embarrassment, he had started to get light headed. "You're awake?!" He asked, not getting a response. At least, until he heard her quietly whimper "Don't leave me, Keima..."
His head started to fog again, and his nose started to bleed. He slowly fell into unconsciousness. Things were going to be a little rough from here.

8 183The Sun's Remnant
Two people are transported to a world with magic, but it is no Wonderland. When the god of light died, he decided to take the world with him. At least, that’s what many believe in the Kingdom of Rhine, a once vast kingdom of which only a small corner remains — and even that is threatened. On one side, by the Twisted Forest, a corruption spreading from the deathplace of the gods that has already swallowed up most of Rhine. On the other, by the resurgent Kagrathan Empire, resurrected by the infallible God-Emperor Karlatz. A holy order of knights carry out their mission despite the death of their god. A band of talented misfits prepare for a heist out of their league — by stealing. Mages hunt for secrets even as the world ends. A ruler does what must be done to save the living, no matter the cost. Into this world of magic and murder, two adrift souls are inexplicably dragged: a mother estranged from her young daughter due to her own mistakes, and a young man with a love of fantasy who has gradually drifted away from his friends and family. As they each struggle to find their place in this world, they must also answer the question: do they want one?***Content Warning: I've drafted about 100,000 words (most of the first volume), and there is no sexual content so far, though I may add it in the future. There is occasionally gore and traumatising content as the story demands. I commit to keeping all of the above non-voyeuristic. [participant in the Royal Road Writathon challenge]
8 223Sorcerer, level 1
Alcar's life sucks. His days in the poor quarter of the city of Katresburg are long and tough, his parents treat him like garbage, and he doesn’t have a silver moon to his name. But Alcar knows that there is an exciting world of adventure out there. And when he sees a half-orc master sorcerer walking through his neighborhood, he decides to grab his chance. He approaches Master Maluhk to offer his services as an apprentice. And to his shock, the sorcerer agrees to let him come and try his luck along with several other applicants. Soon though, it is all too clear that Alcar, clumsy and lazy as he is, lacks any natural magical talent. It also becomes apparent that Master Maluhk is only interested in ’apprentices’ in order to get someone to do his laundry and tidy up his books. At best, Alcar and the others have signed up to do unpaid labor. Things go from bad to worse when his fellow applicants for the role of apprentice prove to be reckless in the extreme, and as Master Maluhk’s tower catches fire, Alcar soon finds himself being blamed for their misdemeanors. Can Alcar clear his name, gain another chance, and learn enough to show that he has the potential to be a proper sorcerer’s apprentice? [participant in the Royal Road Writathon challenge]
8 214Lifestones of Lebreima
Lottica and Nick probably could have dealt with the sudden death of their parents. They probably really could have coped. IF. IF they hadn't had to deal with foreign grandparents who wanted to whisk them off to Lebreima, a small Old World country thousands of miles away from their friends and neighbors. IF they weren't being pursued by a sinister figure in a cape (a cape of all things!) who may have killed their parents. IF, in the ruins of their house, Lottica and Nick hadn't found what their dad had hidden there, along with secrets that were about to change the universe as they knew it. IF (and this deserves the all caps) THEIR DEAD PARENTS HAD JUST STAYED DEAD.
