《Devil in My Heart》Release The Lotus Seal

"What are you going to do after this?" Kiran asked.
"Kiran, I can't go on like this. I will go back to wandering."
"Where are you going?"
"I will return to the kingdom of Demetria."
"Wouldn't going back there be dangerous for you?"
"I can't keep hiding, I will find a way to stop this war."
"Then I will come with you."
"B-but... haven't you been in this world for a long time and intend to return to heaven?"
"Somehow I feel close to this woman and want to stay with her." Kiran Mind.
"Hmmm... We just met, why don't we spend some time together?" said Kiran who looked into Ryana's eyes deeply.
Ryana blushed and then looked down.
"You also need additional reinforcements, after all." Kiran volunteered to help.
"Hmmm. Okay. If that doesn't bother you. Thank you, Kiran," Ryana accepted Kiran's help.
"Kiran is there a shrine here? I want to visit there."
"On the hill, let me drop you off."
Kiran transformed himself into a fox and then jumped from cliff to cliff. Water splashes, the wind blows between the pine trees, the white expanse of snow, and the towering hills. Ryana was amazed at the beautiful sight she saw, and she was grateful for it. Finally, they arrived at the top of the hill.
Ryana took a deep breath and let out a long breath as she stretched out her arms. Slowly she opened her eyes.
"Spacious and airy," Ryana said.
Kiran looked at Ryana's face, which looked relieved as if she had been tolerant of the harsh reality she was facing. Then Ryana walked into the empty temple, they cleaned the temple and then prayed. After praying, Kiran asked, "What are you praying for?"
"I pray that the inhabitants of this kingdom can live in peace and not be attached to this world. May they all be freed from their burdens in this world and be reborn in a better world."
Ryana prayed for the ghosts. The other beings that have been killed and still attached.
"I know their pain because I experienced it. But if we hold grudges, it will make our hearts rot. Like a rotten fruit, if it is close to another fruit, it also rots. Therefore, I don't want people around me to become bad people like me. If we hold on to anger, before we can take revenge, we will burn first. It's like retaliating against someone by throwing hot coals, before you can hit that person, you will be hurt and burn yourself. It is not easy to accept and forgive them. But I try to be as spacious as the sky. I want to be free like those clouds. I want to start a new life and keep going on with my goal of creating peace. I will try to stop the chaos that I encounter. So, I will wander."

Kiran heard Ryana's soothing advice made him feel inspired. "You are like a goddess. Alright, then allow me to remove the seal from within you." Kiran said
"W-what?" I asked confused.
"Yesterday you absorbed the remaining energy from your mother and if the lotus seal on your chest is removed, then you will be able to use your power. I don't think your mother wants you to use that power and she hopes that you can live your life like a normal human being. That power can threaten your life because people will fight over you. Do you still want to continue?"
Ryana was shocked because she didn't expect that she had the power. She pondered for a moment, "There is strength and there is a risk. Since the power is already there, I will use it for good." Ryana said confidently.
Kiran nodded his head and smiled at her. He also agreed with Ryana's mindset. "Alright then, get ready."
"Yes."
They both sat cross-legged facing each other. Then, Kiran pointed his right palm in front of Ryana's chest, while Kiran's left hand was forming a mudra right in front of his chest. He began to concentrate fully. As the energy began to concentrate on the seal, Kiran opened his eyes and said, "Let go!"
Ryana felt relaxed and free. More relief than receiving energy from the tree of life. She slowly opened her eyes and saw Kiran who was crying with tears in his eyes. Before Ryana asked what was wrong, Kiran immediately hugged Ryana.
"I've finally found you," Kiran said.
Ryana just stayed silent and waited for his emotions to subside, even though she was confused by Kiran's reaction.
Lucien and Claes recognize the energy that comes out and said, "Ryana??" Because they feel a little energy resembling Ryana. While Tyrone knows the energy of this crystal power is Yuki who has a daughter who will conquer him.
"We're going hunting," Tyrone said to his followers.

"W-What happened Kiran?"
"You are the goddess I seek! When I opened the seal in you, I saw the blood around the heart where it was the inner door. When traced, the place shone brilliantly and as I continued to concentrate my mind to investigate the light, then I saw your past life. You are the reincarnation of the goddess Lyra."
"W-what? Are you not wrong Kiran?" I asked.
"I saw it directly. Looking at your past life and our togetherness! I finally found you during all those years in the human world."
"There are farewells, there are meetings. Thank goodness we meet again." Ryana said with a warm smile. Kiran then nodded.

"Even though I am the reincarnation of the goddess Lyra, my current self is not my previous self. But that doesn't mean I'm completely different from before. Because every being and nature is constantly changing. Like this tree. The fruit is not the same as the seed that is planted, but this fruit is also no different from the seed because this fruit comes from that seed. I came from my past life and then reincarnated. Of course, you will see differences in nature, character, etc., due to environmental influences and life experiences. Like my physique and my face are different from before because of the influence of the genes of both parents."
"Even if you are different, I will understand and accept it as it is," Kiran said. "I am very happy because I have waited so long. Maybe this is what is called a relationship bond. Before meeting you, I was friends with your mother."
Ryana nodded in agreement. Thus, the reunion of the two of them after a long separation.
Then Ryana asked, "How do I use this power?"
"Try to concentrate the energy in the palm of your hand."
Ryana tried it too. The crystals that appear are still small.
"There's no need to rush. The key is concentration. Energy doesn't just come out of the palm. If trained, it will be able to come out of all the pores of your body. But why start from the palm? Because it is an easy area to concentrate energy. Because it's focused on one part," explained Kiran. Then he continued,
"You can shape it as well as remove it. If you remove it, you just release the energy. In the case of small crystals, you don't have to worry about how to get rid of them. Because once he appears, he will quickly disappear. But in the case when you take out a large crystal and you want to remove it right away, you just have to take it off."
"For example, like this. Kiran took a flower and covered it with crystals. But if I want to eliminate the crystal, I just need to release the energy by not concentrating the energy, so that the energy will be scattered and not form an energy formation. And voila, back to the way it was."
"Okay, Master. He-he," Ryana's smile was listening attentively.
Kiran returned the smile and stroked Ryana's head.
"Let's go," I spoke.
I and Kiran continue our new adventure. But before we leave, a shining god appears.
"Kiran..." said the god.
Kiran and Ryana turned to the voice. A luminous deity appeared before them.
"Exactly! We meet again, Ryana, a reincarnation of the goddess Lyra. Your appearance has changed now," said god.
"What brings you here?" asked Kiran.
"You were ordered to return to heaven," replied the god.
Kiran was shocked to hear that because he had just met his old friend, but now he had to part again.
"B-but...." He said quietly.
Ryana came forward and touched his shoulder and said, "We will meet again. My end journey is to return to the kingdom of Demetria."
Kiran nodded. Then agreed to return to heaven. Just before leaving, the god said to Ryana, "Do you want to defeat Tyrone, the demon king?"
"Yes," replied Ryana.
"How do I get there? While I cannot swim. And it's impossible because even if I can swim, I can't last long in the sea," said Ryana who felt it was impossible.
"Go to the northwest. You'll get a clue there."
"Well, god. Thank you for your instruction."
Then Kiran said to the deity, "Allow me to escort this human first. After that, I will return."
"Okay." Answered the god and then returned to heaven.
Kiran transforms into a fox.
"Come on. Get on my back." Kiran said.
"Well." Then I climbed Kiran's back. "Smooth white fur," I mumbled.
"A tight grip."
"Yes."
Then, he brought me down from the cliff and escorted me to the western border of the country. We took the forest road to avoid the crowds.
In the evening before sunset.
"It seems, I can only bring you here," Kiran said.
"It's okay. I have been greatly helped." I said as I got off Kiran's back.
Kiran slowly transformed into a human form while grasping and clasping my palms together. He said, "I will definitely be back."
"I'm looking forward to that," Ryana answered.
Kiran disappeared in front of me leaving behind beads of light. Then I decided to enter the gates of this kingdom and look for information about the lake in the northwest. During that time, I use the time to practice concentration and control the energy or strength I have. It doesn't feel like three weeks have passed and I've arrived in the northwestern area. During that time, I mostly slept in the forest. Resting at the inn can be counted on the fingers. My control is getting better.

Tempest Rogue
This story follows Auron, a man who has been plagued with vivid nightmares his entire life. While running away from a beating, a splitting headache causes him to fall to his knees.

As he clings to the only memories he has left, he is forced to fight through a world of brutal blood thirsty monsters, dungeons, and a complex magic system governed by an ancient agreement. First time writing any sort of story. Everything is still a work in progress. As I improve on my writing I will go back and edit parts. Early chapters are subject to change as I grow my ability. I am going to try my best to write this world and improve as I go. My goal is to make my dream come to life through the medium of text. This is why I wanted to post it here. Feel free to comment, and bring constructive criticism. Hope you enjoy! More info (Spoiler warning): only read if you are picky, read a lot, and want to waste no time with a story you may not want read. This book is a litrpg. This means it contains stat tables, and other game elements. (Which you may gloss over if you would like) It is written in a fantasy world, in the style of a progression fantasy. The main character grows in power as the story plays out. My characters are written to my best ability, but you may find them immature. The MC has to adjust to fighting, and killing which he struggles with for a while. His partner is a magical salamander who is a friend and mentor. The world building, monsters, and descriptions are also low tier. (I am working hard to change that!) If you are okay reading something by someone who is just getting started then welcome! I am doing my best, and incrementally improving as I go.
