《Cleric or Necromancy?》volume 1 Chapter 7: my brother is in fantasy land
Advertisement
'Soft cotton your pathetic'
'Sorry master.. I can possess your brother to gleam information from him and he won't remember anything about it. But it seems he has gotten stronger so I will need to borrow some of your mana'
I refocus on the real world and my brother is staring at me with a weird face waving his arm in front of me. In surprise of this I role back on his bed.
“So what you doing Gilbert?”
“....”
“Going to possess me? I doubt it will work I have been practising my light and healing magic”
Light is under healing magic as I expected.
“Teach me”
He looks at me with a weird face
“What?”
“Magic teach me”
“Your possessing my brother you can't learn light magic”
“Teach me I'm your brother, I'll learn”
“....Fine but on one condition”
“Condition?”
He roles his eyes
“Rule”
“Oh what rule?”
“You must tell no one that I am teaching you and you must learn it off the first try or I am bringing you to the bishop tomorrow to be exorcised”
“ Exercise?”
“Never mind magic is easy most get it after their first try”
He grabs a knife then cuts his hand. Blood comes out and some spills onto the floor. He then puts his other hand over it and says
“Heal me by the God Aceso” (name is from Greek mythology)
Light wraps around his arm and the wound slowly goes away but to my surprise the wound appears on his other arm.
“Light healing magic is a kind of magic that transfers the injury to yourself. So healing another person actually transfers the damage from them to yourself. It does however require Mana as well to function. about 100 mana per cast. Less if you have managed to level up your light magic skills. Most light mages either put all their stat points into vitality or intelligence to heal more people. Mana can also be used as a catalyst for damage taken at the later levels of Healing. Most of the bishops lean towards that and so does the pope. Some bishops however rely on the vitality healing as it makes assassinating them much harder. Now I am going to cut your arm so be still.”

He then cuts my arm it is painful but I have felt worse in my last life. I ignore a ding that I hear and try to copy my brother. While it does work only a small portion of the wound is moved. My brother sees this and his eyes widen. They seem to widen to an impossible amount when he sees the wounds quickly repair them self from my ability Full Regeneration.
“A-a-are you an Angel? Only Angels have the ability to use both light magic and heal that fast...”
Should I bluff or not? If they find out about my ability I might get fucked over...
“I completely understand Angel sent by God”
“What are you...”(cuts me off)
“You don't want anyone to discover you so that Demons don't come and try to hunt you down”
“I'm not an Angel!”
“What you aren't? Wait I've something similar to this!”
He runs over to his desk and pulls out a book with a star that seems to be shooting across the cover. He hurriedly flips through it and then stops.
“Here it is!”
He grabs the book an shows it to me. I look at him with a confused face.
“I can't read my Brother”
“Oh its about a divine soul!”
“A Divine Soul?”
“A near perfect soul that didn't make it to heaven because it lacked a small amount of Karma. When a Divine Soul is Born they have Weird abilities for light Magic. They usually learn at breakneck speeds and are omens of good things to come! To think my brother is a Divine Soul!”
I think I can play of Being a Divine soul better then an Angel considering I am a soul from another world.
“Don't tell anyone okay brother?”
“Don't worry I won't. Because If I did the church would take you away to train you!”

“Okay. Can I go to bed now I'm tired”
And confused how the hell did this conversation turn around so quick? He takes me to bed and buts me in my cradle before I fall asleep however.
'Soft cotton?'
'Yes master?'
'Why do you have the Title whipped?'
'...'
'Soft cotton I'm not asking'
'Fine. Well the first person that I possessed was a Masochist. And the next thirty people as well... I possessed them all within 1 month and to my horror as I finished possessing each one they would be finished their “treatment”... I got the Title after a week of possessing people in that house. At the time I didn't have full control of those that I possess and well I gave them control of their bottom halves which ended in a lot of... unpleasant stuff being thrown around. To this day I fear all females'
'...Oh God that must have been horrible....'
'twas master twas'
'I'll find you a good shade wife who won't be a sadist'
'Master I don't think you'll every find a shade wife for me who can help me with my problems...'
'Do you doubt your master?'
'Honestly in nothing but that'
I then slowly try to drift off to sleep. But something is nagging at me. An hour later I realize what it is. I got a message when I was doing that healing thing with my Brother. I check up on what I got from it.

Nice. But who is this King Zog person?
Just as I'm about to fall asleep something pokes me. I look up and its my 16 year old brother.
“Tomorrow I'll teach you to read”
“Mom's dragging me to the neighbors tomorrow”
“Oh two days from now?”
“Ask mom she knows my schedule just say your doing a sermon”
“Okay goodnight Divine Soul”
“Call me Gilbert”
I then FINALLY drift off to sleep.

Dreams or Another World - Not a Zero (Update 09/19/21)
(Updated 09/19/21) Hello and welcome. If you made it this far and the book title sounds interesting, I'm hoping you'll read a few chapters. Here's a sample from chapter 1 of "Dreams or Another World - Not a Zero."Slowly starting to wake up, I become aware. It's like coming out of a fog.Head hurts.Body hurts.There's a conversation in the room. This isn't my bed. Someone is touching my arm. I crack my eyes to look. She doesn't notice. Is she praying for me? Her hands do feel good…do feel... Slipping back unconscious, my eyes slowly close. I didn't notice the soft green glow under Jenn’s hands.*******************"It does look like he saved them or at least stalled them long enough for us to get there." says the man dressed more like a park ranger than an officer of the law. "I did think he was part of it at first" he continues "but the evidence shows he wasn't there and they were certainly fighting on that back road where we found them""I don't care who he is." says a woman as she enters the room. "He saved and protected my Jenn. I will make sure there's not a mark or a scar on him before he leaves". As she continues the few steps over to the men speaking, even though dressed simply in common clothes, there is no doubt the race of elves is in her heritage. The grace and lines of her form. The elegance and lightness of her step. She glances at her daughter, still watching over the young man in the bed. "Do we know who he is yet?" she asks no one in particular."Not yet dear" a man in a white coat responds. A handsome middle-aged man. Fit, but not that of a fighter or ranger. "I asked Talon to bring another identification stone with him. I was hoping ours was just broke, but it's reading the same.""What do you think is wrong?" Talon asks."I'm thinking we just have to wait until he recovers. I have heard of cases where the stone didn't work. Powerful spells can hide or wipe a person clean. I doubt he's a spy or a criminal. Spells like that are just too high level if, they're used at all. My best guess is, there is just some disconnect with him being unconscious. When he wakes, we can ask him or use the stone again then."I find myself waking up in a hospital bed. The attending Doctor finds it odd that he cannot identify my class. An Officer says I’m a Hero for saving a girl from being kidnapped, but he’s asking too many questions for my liking. I know an accusing tone when I hear it. I don’t remember any of it and I need to find my way home.Author’s notes. Original work. First draft and update of chapters 1-16. Inspired by various fantasy games and books. Written with a focus on character development and interaction. Combat, progression, leveling, classes, but no numbers or stats. I’ll try to keep the language clean, PG-13, no smut. I’m in the US, writing in English. Almost fifty chapters are completed as I pen this introduction. I intend to complete this story or at least bring it to a proper ending. I have a destination in mind. I find as I write, doors and ideas open, while others close and are discarded. The tentative release schedule will be once a week. I'm new to creating. My apologies now while I learn. I have not settled on a book cover or artwork, still looking for something that fits. Registered & Protected #20VjeKDv2U6nynW6

The Choice of Twilight
Growing up has always been difficult. It's even worse when you have to do it all in one night. On the eve of his thirteenth birthday, Ty awakes to find himself in a dreamworld, one-so he is told-that exists to pit him against his greatest fears and insecurities. And to ready him for a final choice. Luckily, Ty is not without friends. He soon meets Gentry, a wooden puppet his grandfather made for him years ago, walking and talking, ready to help Ty learn what he needs to return home in one piece. But that won't be easy when a cruel and abnormally tall skeleton dressed in mockery of Santa Claus and his suit hates Ty's guts. San wants nothing more than to best Ty and do what none of his kind has ever done before: defeat a child that has made "the choice." But Ty will stop at nothing to fight back against everything San's got in order to face his fears and grow up. Because, if he doesn't, he will end up a kid forever. Or, worse...never wake up again. This story is perfect for you if you are a fan of Coraline and Kingdom Hearts, both of those stories greatly inspired this one. I have recently added the Isekai tag after being unsure if it counts or not. I've decided it fits the description of what it is but not the current trends in the genre. If you go in with Coraline in mind I think you will have a better idea of the kind of Isekai this is. And I've also added the Slice of Life tag, that is only for the first five or six chapters though, then Ty enters the dream world and it pretty quickly becoms a progression fantasy, a mix of more traditional fairy tale like trappings alongside more anime action and acquisition of slowly increasing powers. With all that out of the way, please enjoy! Updates every Tuesday and Thursday! What time of day? It's a mystery! (For now)
