Elizabeth said sweetly.
———————————————————————————
I patted my stomach in victory as I laid on the couch trying to support the food baby that now took over. I was watching some random tv show Ben put on after breakfast. I stared blankly realizing that soon I would be alone again. My thoughts focused on the old moldy motel room that I called home. I looked at the time the lit up my phone screen. 11:30 sighing I decided now was better time then ever to get going. Knowing that work would come early soon enough and I needed some time to wallow in my own sadness.
He took his eyes off the screen and nodded my way. "
I sighed are food would be amazing especially when I don't really eat much when I'm alone but I didn't want to overstay my welcome. I dramatically rolled my eyes the giggles a little hoping he would drop the subject of staying longer. He nodded and got up he said while pointing at the pj's. I widened my eyes a little remembering that I still hadn't asked what happened to my clothes. I left the tv room at headed where I had last seen Elizabeth. I got to the kitchen to see it empty .. drat .. I walked around the house searching for the older blonde woman. I heard some sounds coming from upstairs and headed towards them. Walking up the stairs I continued down the hall in hopes I would find her soon because my poor legs were getting tired fast.
I called her name and within a half a second I could see her head poke out the room she was in. She was wearing thick black framed glasses and a white long sleeve shirt. I walked towards her she had her usual smile plastered on her face. I caught my breath as I tried to continue. "I could see her smile falter a little but went back to being bright.

She grabbed my hand and we walked back down the stairs heading towards the laundry room. She quickly produced the clothes i was wearing last night folded perfectly. I replied with a quick "". Taking my clothes I headed to the half bath they had on the main I quickly took off the shorts and slid on my now clean blue skinny jeans and my grey long sleeve. I stared in the mirror for a few moment taking in everything I seen. My messy blonde hair, pale complexion with dark circles under my eyes. This was me.. I was taken out of my thoughts when I heard a little knock.
Opening the door I send Elizabeth standing there. "Handing me a toothbrush and some toothpaste I thanked her then closed the door getting at it.
A few minutes later I walked out of the bathroom feeling much better then I did going in. With my teeth brushed and my clothes clean I felt much better. I walked towards the living room and got Bens attention. He nodded and got up towering me as he walked by, we both walked towards the back door where I quickly got my old black and white vans on and quickly took one last look around. Ben yelled for his mom to say good by and and rushed to us from whatever room she was in. I could see a sad look on her face like she had something on her mind but I couldn't tell what it was.
..." I was pulled into a suffocating hug that I wasn't prepared for.
I was suddenly cut off. "She said while giving my shoulder a little squeeze. I nodded to her and felt her pull me into another hug .. boy she was very loveable and very giving with these hugs. I turned to Ben who was scrolling on his phone he looked up to see if we were ready. I nodded and we both headed out towards his jeep. Getting in, I got my self situated and waved goodbye out the passenger window.

We drove for what felt like forever but was really only like 20 minutes I could feel a little sadness going back to this place but it was my home for now while I could afford it so it had to do. We finally arrived and I sighed thanking Ben quick for inviting me he reached over and gave me a small hug and we said our good byes for now. I hopped out of the SUV and walked towards my room.. oh good ole room #7 "" I whispered to myself.. I got my key out and got in closing the door behind me I just flopped myself on the bed and just laid there with my thoughts.

I was Summoned as a Hero, but I Became the Demon Lord Instead
"Ah, how I wish I could be summoned to another world." I’d always thought of such a naive wish of escapism would never be granted. However, shit happened and I was somehow summoned. However, in some strange twist of fate, I was no longer needed and disposed of, but that’s okay because I didn’t want to be a summoned hero to begin with. My new beginning may have been abruptly cut short, but even so, that is fine. There is a path I’m much more interested in. Mwuhahaha! Cough cough cough. Though, my sinister laugh may still need some practice. I was Summoned as a Hero , but I Became the Demon Lord Instead Volume 1 Word Count: 108K Including Volume Exclusive Content Available on Amazon Edit: If you don’t get the timeline that’s because the rate at which time flows in different worlds are not equal. In addition, timelines do not neccesarily run parallel to each other, they may cascade such that when summoned to another world you may get summoned from a different reference frame in the timeline of another world’s with respect to your own. Scientific constants can change from one plane to the next. The natural laws that govern each world is not necessarily the same across them all. Some may display similarities, while others may be the complete opposite where rather than aging forwards you actually age in reverse. Newborns could be born elderly and withered, but when they are born into the world, their body regresses towards death in reverse.
