《Gods among gods》Chapter 16 - Ava's room.
Advertisement
Mikah ran into the forest, but stopped shortly after. Something told him that in this forest it was better not to attract attention. He noted that this woods was much darker than any he had ever seen in his life. He approached one of the huge trees that surrounded him and touched it and noticed that a dark "aura" poured from the bark, like a river of pain and hatred. He sharpened his senses and felt the same independent and vile "aura" in everything around him, in every tree and leaf in the forest.
-"You are one…"- he whispered, realizing that the entire forest was an independent being full of resentment. His senses begged him to escape in time, but he couldn't leave the creature crying for help in the distance. He focused on the sound of crying using the 'aura' and moved as fast as he could trying not to draw attention to anything…especially the branches that seemed to sway towards him every time he got close to one.
An orb of light levitated slightly above the palm of a delicate, pale hand. The owner of the beautiful hand was Ava. She was attentively observing the orb from which some rays emanated from time to time that were lost in the room and raised with her static the multi-colored hair of the queen of that world. Within the light that came out of the ball, you could see the determined face of Mikah who was looking for something in the middle of the dark forest.
-They call that forest "Fatso", you know? - Ava said as she left the orb in the middle of a round white stone table that was in the center of a wide room full of windows, but without any door that could be seen.
-Fatso?- Haha. Good name for a thick forest.

-It's not because it's thick, it's because it eats everything that goes in there... your pupil could be in trouble- Ava's eyes fell on Deom, who was reading a book sitting on the edge of a huge and luxurious bed.
-You should stop watching your round TV and come to bed- Deom replied with a mischievous smile observing Ava's body without any shame.
-Aren't you worried about your student?
-He is an immortal- answered Deom throwing the book to one side and making it disappear before he hit the ground -this is his adventure… the adventure of his life. He will be successful… I hope haha.
Ava rolled her eyes for a moment, then looked at Deom, smiled and walked towards the bed revealing her long and beautiful legs that came out of her blue silk robe with every step she took. She didn't need to walk, and Deom knew it.
-Well, you would do well to take care of him as soon as you finish taking care of me.
Mikah lost track of time in the woods, he would run from time to time when he thought the cry was close to him and when it was away from him, he would stop to track him down. At this time he noticed that the branches did come closer as soon as he came to a complete stop, so he couldn't stop moving or sleep. He sensed that days had passed, but couldn't tell for sure since the trees covered almost all the light that came from the sky. He could see everything with the 'aura', so it was like seeing in the dark.
He came upon a gigantic rock carved in the shape of an ancient humanoid face with grotesque fangs and a frown. He noticed that the top of the head was even higher than the huge trees in the forest and climbed up it to position himself in space.

At the top, he could see a reddish sun and vanilla sky. The mountains were somewhere on the horizon, much further away than they had been the last time he saw them. The rest was an immense green sea. The forest had swallowed him.
-"So I'm lost"- he thought when realizing that the mountains were not where he thought they should be.
He could see the maze of trees shift and move into the distance from time to time. He could see the tops of the trees move like wheat in the wind and even he saw stretches opening and closing as if something monstrously huge were walking in the distance making its way through the trees. A green water shark that swam in the depths of a sea of forest.

The Mystifying Diviner
Content warning, there is cursing in the story and there will be some pretty heavy sexual innuendos in it also. I don’t really plan to write gore, but there will be fight scenes. Fair warning to readers, it is a slow start. But hopefully it is enjoyable for you to read. Follow the story of an old chef who was lucky to be selected to become a system host. Well maybe not so lucky, because gaining the system killed him. He will be given a system that might not be the best match for him. While also having to deal with a snarky system monitor who might not be that helpful most of the time. He will also use his new found powers to enjoy life in a new younger body. What you can expect from this story is bad writing, poor grammar, and slow pacing maybe. Food, cooking, comedy, slice of life, fighting, exploring, tournaments, scamming and probably face slapping. I mean who doesn’t like a good face slapping? This is my take on a cultivation story, a lot of Eastern stuff will be crammed into with a mix of Western. This story started as a goal for myself to write 60,000 words in a month for NaNoWriMo. I was able to do it even with taking days off and not writing. I plan to keep writing the story, but at a slightly slower pace. I am aiming for 2-3 chapters a week now with about 4-7k words written. This is only posted on RoyalRoad currently, and I have no plans to change that for now. Cover art is by Jack0fheart [Participant in the 2021 Royal Road Writathon Challenge for the month of November 2021]
