《Gate keeper》Chapter 53 emptiness and Evelyn's emotions
Advertisement
June stared at the dragon king as Amelia bashed him in the stomach with her fist instead the hilt. What did surprise her was that Amelia was using her left hand to do it. Wasn't Amelia right handed?
"Your such a bore." (Amelia)
The dragon king staggered as he look at her in confusion where was this little girl getting all that strength. Don glared at her standing expressionless before him but her eyes were in disgust and disappointment.
"Who are you really." (Don)
"Aries the infamous framed Phoenix princess by the council of elders." (Amelia)
Frighten the dragon king changed into his red dragon form and tried to fly off. Annoyed Amelia threw her giant's spear at his left wings.
"My aim is never off. Since in one of my millionth life I was a elf. Never piss off a former celestial fairy or former goddess like me either. Those were my other lives before I was known as Izumi. Say tyrant king please and amuse the expressionless me who lost her real smile the day I heard my caring mother died." (Amelia)
(Yep she snapped and yes Amelia is a mother complex. Or as they call mother con.)
'She finally admits that she lost her expression to express herself. She did smile when she saw Yuki but even I know that it was fake.' (June)
Leo stared stunned as he say the falling palaces from the skies and Aki laughing at the gods as they writhe in pain on the ground. The male destroyer she asked was called Kerites meaning disaster. He didn't name himself but rather people whom he killed.
(80% of the time destroyer rampage and kill. The other 20% are female and they only kill when necessary. No more or less, the girls hate killing pointlessly only the rarely seen rampage as they please. Since they're born from negative emotions and attachment from every race inside a city causing natural disasters or diseases spreading out. If they stay too long that place with be nonexistent of life so they have to move constantly.)

Kerites agreed to the girl's request because he was amused and he hadn't caused any disasters in a while. Plus she had found him near the river of lost souls. It was also called the river home of the dead. He couldn't really cause disasters there since that place was full of negative energy itself. Which negated his powers. So when she brought up her request he couldn't help but smile. After all it meant throwing the worlds into chaos.
"By the way girl I never asked throughout this journey with you and the spirit." (Kerites)
"What did you want to ask." (Aki)
"Why do you hate these gods." (Kerites)
"They took away what I treasured the most, my sister." (Aki)
"I see. Here's my other question why did you want revenge." (Kerites)
"Because I want them to feel the pain I and millions of other lives they took felt. I want to destroy the so called system they built." (Aki)
Kerites stared at her as if she's a odd species he had just saw for the first time since getting to know her. First she wasn't scared of him a destroyer. Second she didn't seem to care about the disasters or diseases happening around him. Nor did she seem affected by the negative oddities such as the supernatural disasters such as the zombie epidemic or the tornadoes. Rather she was indifferent and uncaring but after finding out why he felt weird. There was someone worst off than them who was born from those negative and corrupt emotions from mankind and other races.
"Meaning you had no reason to be scared of me since you already lost your reasoning. You only living now are for two things your sister and looking for revenge. You got the latter. I don't feel like ending you myself your more in a sorry state than even us destroyer. Plus I'm not a peacemaker like idiots of my kind." (Kerites)

Kerites picked up his cap he had tossed before the battle so it wouldn't get destroyed with his top. His tan chest was exposed after the battle with the gods. He has done her the favor of killing the gods already, so he left her there. Aki stood there stunned after she look at her hands then the corpses of the angels and gods on the ground. Golden blood of the gods and goddesses were stained into the ground.
She felt satisfaction but there was this sense of emptiness inside of her. Rather she didn't know what it was, what was it that made her feel lost and empty. Her hand ran over a angel's face that looked 15 years old.
"Would sister like the current ugly me as it is." (Aki)
"Wait what's wrong now Aki. Hey Aki don't ignore me." (Leo)
"Sister I finally got them back for what they did but why do I feel like this. It felt worst than the day I lost you. The anger I felt has gone away. That dread and hatred towards losing you from my life. Why did they do this I asked? Does gods only exist to take and take from us. Why does getting rid of all of them give me emptiness and this hallow feeling. I finally did all those people right! So why please sister answer me! They finally died. The gods finally got what they deserved." (Aki)
Evelyn stared at Rika who tried to claw at her and dodge to the side. But her steps were slow as she felt a sense of wrong. Her mother's intuitions were telling her something wasn't right. This made her stop herself after she slammed the door on Rika inside the glass room.
"Damn so close. Get back here Evelyn this talk isn't over. Oh wait I know why your motherly instincts are kicking in. It's your youngest daughter." (Rika)
(Rika is listening to the insanity so she knows everything from them at this moment even the fact that Yuki's back in the realms. And she'd do anything to get out of her cage even use words against them.)
"I have no time for your insane reasoning or your madness." (Evelyn)
"Say but what I'm saying is the truth." (Rika)
"Sorry I won't listen to a insane patient that's in house arrest. I'll talk to you when your more calm." (Evelyn)
"But let me tell you a secret your unaware of that I know of. Your 2nd daughter is not Aki like you make it out to be. But Amelia, whom lost her expressions the day she heard her mother died." (Rika)
Evelyn staggered next to the glass wall when she heard those words. It was a stab to her heart, to protect her own daughter she had to send her away rather than keep her inside her clan. She could feel her heart being torn all over again when she remembered little Amelia crying to her saying she didn't want to leave her.

8 129Lost souls: Road to Godhood (Isekai) [Writathon Participant]
In a world where mages stand above nobles and even the law, it's not surprising that everyone wants to learn magic. Luz and his brothers are no different. However, their peaceful lives are shattered when a dragon attacks their village. Left with no choice, Luz uses a forbidden spatial spell to save his brothers. The consequences are not pretty--he and his brothers are scattered across different realms. Luz will have to travel to places unknown to reunite his family and gain enough power to take vengeance on the dragon. Armed with a single spell that he can only cast once before his magic reserves are depleted, Luz has his work cut out for him. Being the oldest is never easy. Author note: Please be warned as the book won't be what you might expect since the early chapters of my work are more of a slice of life of an MC, trying to adjust to his new life rather than slaying monsters left and right from the get-go with accelerated growth cheat and missions given by a goddamn system that forges your path, since everyone knows: an MC needs a system that tells one how to move forward. That was a long sentence. Also, some of you might consider my chapter titles as clickbaity, while others like me might consider them: not boring titles, hehehe.
8 150A Canopy of Stars
Arden, planet of a billion souls, has been destroyed. A solar body, known only as The Dark Star collided with the world, shattering it. Through the actions of ancient heroes, and the sacrifice of the Gods, life found a way. Floating through the black sea of space, orbiting the destructive beauty of The Dark Star is Shatter, a coalition of continental rocks, surviving as best they can. Through magic and technological advancements, the fractured remnants of the planet have been made halfway habitable. In addition to shattering the prime material plane of Arden, The Dark Star’s destructive force also fractured the planar system, collapsing ancient barriers and forcing the wild elemental and chaotic magics of the planes into conjunction. The Kingfisher, helmed by the enigmatic and powerful Captain Thunder and her miscreant crew, do odd jobs to survive, operating outside of the law. One such job takes them to the shard of Evergreen, a fragment of planet covered in brilliant forests and the capricious and deadly faerie folk who call them home. Unfortunately, while the job seems simple enough from the outside, it quickly embroils the crew of the Kingfisher in a dangerous storm. Can Thunder and her crew keep to the sidelines when war is brewing around them?
