《Tidbits from Mahashoti and Other Stories》Mahashoti - Being Guest at Vhurab
Advertisement

Shriti’s soul was taken to a new realm and pushed into a new body. She found herself amongst the aliens. They seated her in a magnificent chariot, which took off from ground and flew high in the sky. The flight was smooth and fast. The chariot made no vibration or sound. It had a sound system that played soft melodious celestial music.
After it had travelled some distance, the chariot started descending. In the background, at a distance, there were beautiful snow-capped mountain cliffs, whose slopes were adorned with foliage of infinite beauty. The base of the mountain was flat. It was covered with uniform green grass like a beautiful carpet. At one end there was a grove of large, luxuriant trees, and at other end was glistening lake containing atypical water - clear, radiant, and alluring.
The chariot made a soft landing on the ground. A dignified man and a beautiful young lady received Shriti when she got down. The man came forward and said something which Shriti could not understand. Then the man took out two earplugs and put those in Shriti's ears.
The man announced pleasantly, "Welcome to planet Vhurab, the land of Vidujas. My name is Jalliketu. I am the Security in-charge of this region. And she is my assistant Ritika. She will be your host here on this planet. You are an outsider. You do not know our language. So you will need the earplugs. These earplugs are automatic translators. It will instantly translate our spoken words into your language."
The man appeared somewhat worried. He said, "This is the first time a soul from earth has reached here in a physical form. We mistook your soul as that of Shimoyi Janu Mahashoti and brought you here. Then we gave you her spare body without proper verification. Now I am afraid, you will have to stay here till some alternate arrangements and decisions are made."

Shriti asked, “But what is my fault? I have not trespassed into this place.”
Jalliketu said, “The fault was ours’. It was a breach in our security. We did not perform any Ruhbac scan that every soul is required to undergo. Had we done that we would have known that you are not Shimoyi Mahashoti.”
“What is Ruhbac scan?” Shriti asked out of curiosity.
Jalliketu replied, "It is very difficult to explain this to someone, who comes from an underdeveloped planet like earth. But since you are our guest, I will try to explain it to you to satisfy your curiosity. The earth is not the only planet that has life. Many other planets have life as well. However, our planet Vhurab is the most advanced among all planets. It is the mentor planet to many other planets, including planet earth. We control everything that happens on earth.”
Shriti, “Did you say, our earth is underdeveloped? Do you control earth sitting from here? I cannot believe this.”
Jalliketu then explained the secret:
"We do this in three ways. We have a system. When a person dies in lesser planets, its soul is evaluated through the Ruhbac scan and accordingly it is assigned a place in any of the planets controlled by us. A soul is evaluated based on its deeds, thoughts and feelings. When a person dies, the final score is automatically tagged to the soul and it is assigned to a planet and position accordingly.
"We also have a system that provides governance, support, and help to human beings on earth to lead their life. Improving the quality of souls is very important for maintaining the ecosystem of the universe. When there is general degradation of moral values and virtues in any planet, we send one or more of our best persons in disguise to lead the people towards virtue, truth and peace. Many of the great persons in the history of earth were sent from Vhurab to carry out our planned mission for the betterment of the universe.

"In Vhurab, people have spare bodies having identical fingerprints. But a soul cannot be duplicated. Every soul is unique and is identified from its vibration pattern. So we maintain the record of souls. A soul from outside world is not permitted to enter Vhurab.
“Every soul needs a body. However, the Viduja beings keep two or more bodies. When a Viduja being becomes slightly old or sick, he leaves his old body and enters into a new one. The memory from the old brain is then transferred to the brain of the new body. So there is no old age, sickness and death in Vhurab.”
All the people Shriti had seen so far looked perfectly fit, young and beautiful. But then she saw an extremely beautiful girl. She was much beautiful as compared to any other Viduja girl. Her beauty and grace were beyond description and imagination. Shriti was captivated by the beauty of that girl. “The beautiful girl must be a princess”, she thought. Jalliketu claried her doubt. He said in a soft composed voice, "My dear Shriti, it is you. You are seeing your image in the mirror. You must know that now you are in a body that belonged to Shimoyi Janu Mohashoti. So in physical form, you are now Janu Mahashoti. When the real Janu Mahashoti will arrive, you will give possession of this body to her. Till then, you will keep this secret and stay as a guest in Vhurab."

Everyone is a Superhero! Apart from me
Welcome to Loktharma, where everybody is a superhero from birth. That makes Eugene De Lavet the most special of them all. At eighteen years old, he still has no clue what his superpower is. Loktharma has never been a fair world. There are Worldbreakers who were born to brandish the power of the universe, warp time-space, destroy lands and continents. There are Craftmasters who control the elements and terrorize countries with their might and wits. There are Commoners who are only gifted with power for the finer arts, architecture, military arts, or small-scale elemental manipulation. Even in an unjust world like Loktharma, there is always one constant: everyone is assigned a Flair since birth; the power to do something extraordinary. And then there's Eugene. He's been running around in a secluded forest since birth, training and sparring his ass off. While he can wield a blade better than most at his age, he certainly can't throw a giant boulder using the power of his mind, or turn his skin into diamonds. He has no Flair, no purpose for leveling up his stats, and no idea why General Rizeni Baggardo keeps him confined inside a forest for eighteen years. At least until Lord Pyro—the Craftmaster of Tailiah—unleashes his fury on the forest, searching for a treasure Eugene doesn't even know exists. On a frantic escape for his life, Eugene starts to realize he was a part of something he's been completely oblivious to until now. Along with his companions, Melodi and Azra, he travels the land and unveils the secrets of the world. [The story will be told primarily through the lenses of three main characters, with occasional side character POV chapters. It also draws inspiration from Japanese shounen. So only proceed if you're cool with these aspects.]

The Adventurer's Guild(master)
In a world of adventure, magic, and kingdoms, only one man can keep it all from falling apart. As much as he wished that wasn't the case. This is the story of the man who became the guild master of the most prestigious adventurer's guild in the kingdom, and then came to completely regret that decision, as he is forced to keep the peace, file paperwork, and babysit adventurers. The life of a guild master is not as great as it once seemed. Note: The prologue is an extended -probably should have not took it that far- joke and is completely skippable from the rest of the series. This is my first work on this website, or on any website to be honest, so criticism is more than welcome. Feel free to leave comments on any chapter, not just the latest one.

Miracle Angeliva
Spirits, or what people usually referred to as ghosts, are something that has always been with us since ancient times. Some people are gifted to see them. However, most of us can’t see them without training. And without seeing them, we won’t believe. People only believe what they see, after all. However, I assure you, spirits are real. Spirits are always there. Just because you can’t see them doesn’t mean they are not real. Just like people of ancient ages who can’t see bacteria or those who can’t see stars further than eyes can see, there are limits to our technology. Similarly, even though the current technology can’t prove the existence of supernatural beings, that doesn’t mean they don’t exist. In the future, if we can develop technology so everyone can see them just like how a microscope helps us seeing micro beings, I believe everyone will believe it too. That being said, I still can’t prove their existence yet. -Raleigh Von Vlad Update daily (if possible, if not, guaranteed chapters are on Tuesday, Thursday, Saturday, and Sunday) Thanks to gej302 for the fantastic cover!
