《Realize》Meeting Victor Bruntley

Jacob is here in the loop again. I have to do something to make him leave once and for all. And I know just what to do to make that happen.
Everyone is doing their own thing right now. Great timing, maybe no one will notice what I will do.
Right now, I am working on my homunculi, until Olive and Jacob went in the room. "Come on Jake, meet Enoch properly." Olive said. I sighed, I don't want to see him, but Olive is bringing him to me. "I will warn you right now, you may not like my peculiarity."
"Scissors." I said. Olive placed it on my palm. I used it to open the chest of an old doll I used to reincarnated before. I placed a rat heart on it's chest. I did the same on the other. Then, I controlled it and rose it from the dead.
"H-h-ow d-did yo-u do t-hat?" Jacob asked. I looked at him, I knew this is gonna be his reaction. "This isn't even the fun part Jake. Do you wanna see the fun part?" I said, in a taunting voice.
Even though we know he is scared, he nodded. I whispered a command to the dolls. It looked at each other, then started fighting each other. Olive squealed and clapped her hands. When the fight was over, Jacob just looked at us and walked out of the room.
"Um, Enoch, I'll be outside too." Olive said. I started cleaning my table. Then finally answered, "Alright, go." I only looked up when I know she already left. Then, when I know the coast is clear, I get enough of the thing I needed and get it ready. I will just need the right time to do it.

I looked for Miss P after a few minutes after Enoch showed me his peculiarity. And obviously, it's creepy. Once I found Miss P, I immediately asked my question. "Miss Peregrine, who's Barron?"
When I asked it she looked at my hands, which is holding the letter I got from my first visit here. "First of all, Mr. Portman, you shouldn't have snatched this letter. And Mr. Barron is once was a peculiar like us." She said, angry at first.

I then got another question. "What do you mean 'once was'? What happened to him?" I asked, again. She sighed, I guess she didn't want me to ask that question. "Jacob.......it's best for you to not know." Miss P said calmly. I got a little angry because of this.
"What do mean 'best for you to not know'?! My grandfather sent me here to know everything he knew! To make my questions answered, so, why are you not answering them, huh?!?!" I exclaim, letting my anger out. "I am truly sorry Jake, I have to go." She left, before I even said anything.
I sighed to myself.
So much for expecting answers.
"Oh how sad. I can't help but hear your outburst. Would you like me to be the one to show you something that might help you your question?" Enoch said, suddenly appearing behind me.
Answer to my question. Why would I say no?
I thought. "Sure. Just be sure this will help me." I said, trying to be threatening. I think he almost laughed. "Course I'm sure." Then he added. "There is someone you didn't met yet. His name's Victor, Victor Bruntley. Bronwyn's brother." He said.
That's right. Nobody said a thing about Victor for like...............ever.
I nodded. "Alright. Lead the way." He started walking. He went up the stairs. A lot of turns. Until, we reached Victor's room, well that's what I think it is anyway.
When we were about 15 inches away, somebody saw us.
"Enoch!!!" A lady's voice said. She went pass Enoch and me, while doing it, I saw red hair. Olive. She put both of her hands out, stopping us from going in the room.
"What Olive?!?!" Enoch said a little annoyed. "You know that you're not supposed to be here!!!" Olive spat back. They're staying a little quiet before it's Miss P who hear them.
"I know. So? Do I have to care?" Enoch said, I just looked at them both. "Yes you should!!! You know Miss P forbid you to go to that room!!! You know who would be upset!!! And you know my reason for stopping you to do it!!!" Olive shouted at him. This is the first time for me to see her like this.

"Yes, I know." He said, emotionless.
"If you do, then you do know I will be broken if you do what I know you will do!!!! Enoch he was our friend!!! He our friend!!! Or you're just too cold to realize that!!! Maybe I am his friend!!! And not you!!!" Olive said, and for once, I saw an emotion on Enoch's face. Guilt.
Before anyone has a chance to talk, she added. "If you're gonna be like that!!! Then maybe, I don't want to be your friend!!!" Then she pushed pass us and walked away.
The next time, it's Fiona who got to see us. "Enoch, you know that Bronwyn don't like it when we bother Victor." Fiona said. "Don't you think Jake here needs to meet everyone?" Enoch said.
Fiona has no answer to that, instead she said, "Jake, ignore what Enoch said. Come and play with us instead." She smiled to convince me.
"No, sorry Fiona. I would really lobe to meet Victor." I told her. Enoch immediately got something to say to make Fiona leave. "See Fiona, he wants to. Now run off!" He said. Fiona got nothing else to say, she just run off like Enoch said.
Enoch opened the door. "Hello Victor. I am Jacob, sorry if I'm interrupting-" Enoch cut me off before I got to finish my sentence. "Just shut up. He can't hear you." He said. By that, I know what he meant. Victor's dead. "Oh." Was all the reply I could muster. Then, Enoch mentioned to me to go closer to Victor. I did.
I saw a heart in Enoch's hand.
He placed it on Victor's chest. Which is disgusting by the way. Then, he stood up, and concentrated. Victor immediately sprung up, head down. He looked at me. I don't know if that possibly because...
...HE DOESN'T HAVE EYES!!! It's more creepier because he said, "Hello Jake, I'm Victor. Do you want to know what killed me?" I immediately ran out of the room.
~*~*~
~*~*~
Hah! He's so scared!!! I wish that would be enough. I looked back at Victor, I saw a tear fell from his eyes.
*sighs* Yeah, what kind friend am I? Why did I continue it anyway?!?! I know it would hurt Victor!!!! Ugh!!!! Idiot! I'm an idiot!!!!
I hatred myself for doing this. Maybe Olive is right. No! Not maybe! Olive is right!!!! "I'm so sorry Victor." I mumbled. *sighs* No one will see me like this again. Yes, I am sorry about Victor. But no one cares that I am rude anyway. I thought about this, and everything about me is back to normal.
Normal, as in Rude, Cold, and nobody's friend.
~*~*~
~*~*~
When I was walking around the house, I passed Victor's room. I went in, he's the peculiar that passed away because of wights. When I looked at him, he have tears in his eyes. He must be in pain. Enoch rose him from the dead again!!!
I need to talk to Mr. O'connor later. I hugged Victor and fight my tears back. "I am so sorry Victor. If I kept an eye on you better, you wouldn't be dead. I am truly sorry." I said I let few of my tears to fall. I tucked him in the bed again. And then left the room, I need to talk to Enoch.
~*~*~
~*~*~
How could he do that to our friend? Is he oblivious that whenever he rose him from the dead, he cries? Maybe he knows but doesn't care!!! How could he?!?! *sighs* If only you could help me Victor. I wish you're here.
~*~*~
Hello Everyone!!!! I'm so thankful for the support. Thank You everyone!!!

The Depths of Magic
Synopsis It's the year 2052 and the release of the new next-generation full-dive VRMMO game called The Depths of Magic is hitting the world by storm. The game's technology will surpass all other games before it and shock the masses. Hector who goes by the name Locke inside the game is an experienced player of the genre. He is looking to continue his goal of enjoying gaming as well as the competition that goes along with competing for the top ranking spots. Novel Summary The Depths of Magic is a LitRPG novel focused on a Fantasy VRMMO setting. This is not a harem novel. In-Game systems The Depths of Magic features state-of-the-art technology never before seen in Hector's world. The key system the novel will bring up often is the Second Brain. The Second Brain system is more like a guidance AI for the players in the game that acts as if you had a second brain assisting your every action. How much guidance this AI will give is based on its experience or mastery skills a player will receive in the game. The guidance is seamless to a point where a player won't even realize they are being assisted, it's will feel like what they are doing is something they could always do. However, once they leave the game it will become quite apparent that they were receiving heavy guidance. The purpose of this system in a writing sense is to explain why a player can realistically become more powerful, more agile, or more skilled than they would otherwise be able to as a human. To give an example if someone could move faster than a bullet, how would a normal human brain be able to perceive and control this movement properly. Or how could a player who has never held a sword before become as experienced as someone who has trained with the sword all their lives? The magic system will be another focus of this novel. I don't want to spoil anything here but it should be an interesting one. The hope is that the system I have made will spark discussion between the readers on what combinations will do what. I already have most of it, but it will be fun to read as the author. Side notes My general focus for this novel is to attempt to make the in-game systems make sense. To give a vague example I have read a lot of novels of this genre and some have the habit of just creating such powerful items that it just breaks the system, and somehow the MC keeps finding challenging situations even with those items. What tends to happen when I read a novel like this I just ignore the stats of the items he is getting because the numbers don't even matter anymore. Release schedule: The chapter release schedule due to real-life complications is to release as I write them. Patreon setup: 1 chapter early release/discord access. Free content up to the current chapter includes an excel sheet that contains Locke's current stats at the end of the chapter. This is extra information for those that are interested.

The Crisis on Planet 9
Welcome to the dream colony Planet 9, where the streets are stained by blood and the buildings are filled with human remains. The creatures roaming among the abandoned cars and flying vehicles resemble almost to perfection the mindless cannibalistic zombies born from the fictional nightmares of mankind. The cities were built in the retro style of the 21st century, but the technology of the 24th century is ever present, mostly within the bodies of those mortally challenged monstrosities. After all, what turned them into these things was not an evolved organic virus, an alien disease, or some sort of magical artifact, it was the corrupted and reprogrammed nanobots within their bodies. Originally, they were meant to heal them and help them access the tech around them, but now they were the origin of this disaster. Among the rotting dead and the Nano-Z, as the survivors called them, Kardian Pandora awakens two months after getting bit by one of them. A young teacher at the local Resonance High, foolish and naive in his own way, but now driven by the Sapient AI in the nanobots inside his body to hunt down other Nano-Z and learn how to survive. For now, his only goal is to become strong enough and rejoin his students and fellow colleagues, foolishly hoping to somehow be able to get back to the time when the undead did not rule the streets. Will Kardian be able to survive in this new savage world or will his naive outlook lead him to a dead end? Volume 1 can be bought on Amazon: Resonance High
