《The Land of Stories: The Adventure Continues》Greatest Fear

Alex and Conner were brought upstairs to the throne room. There was two pairs of handcuffs on the wall and Conner and Alex were put in them.
"What are we doing here?" Conner asked.
"Your here to meet your new leaders." The man in a dark robe said. "Here they come."
The men stepped out of the room, and two middle aged people came in. A women and a man. They both had black hair with a white streak in it, and had bright blue eyes. The women wore a red and white dress and wore a long velvet and fur cape, and the man wore a red and white suit with a gold sash.
"Well, well, well. This is a meeting we've been waiting for for decades." The women said. "My name is Evelyn, and this is my brother Edmund."
"Nice to meet you. So can you take these cuffs off now, so we can destroy you." Conner said.
"Your too old for that. Your weak. Your out of practice." Edmund said. "We've heard your story many many times. Especially from our mother."
"The Evil Queen, Evly." Alex said.
"No, our adoptive mother. Our real mother died the day she gave birth to us. We never got to know her." Evelyn said. "Our father didn't want anything to do with us, so we were given to a couple who were unable to have children. Everyday they would tell us stories about twins who were heroes, who saved our world many times and had powerful magic."
"We wanted magic, we wanted to feel special. We were just regular old kids. We wanted power, and once we were told about our mother and what she did, we knew the Northern Kingdom was supposed to be ours, not Snow Whites son. But we couldn't take over without magic." Edmund said.
"You took Ezmia's sons magic." Alex said.
"Yes, we did. We were almost ready to take over. But we didn't just want the Northern Kingdom, we wanted to rule over the entire world. But we wanted more magic, which is where you come in." Edmund said.
"You want our magic." Conner said. "Not a chance."
"We have the magic to do it though." Evelyn said.
"Not for long. We will find a way to defeat you. This world will soon be what it was, and you two will be locked up for the rest of your lives." Alex said.
"If you have the strength to do so." Edmund said and laughed. Conner rolled his eyes, he instantly hated these two.

"But before we take your magic, there is another person we need. Mr. Bailey, I think you know her...she's your granddaughter."
"I swear, you lay one hand on her, you'll regret it!" Conner said and tried to get his hands free.
"But first you must tell us where she is." Evelyn said.
"Why would I tell you?" Conner said.
"We know spells, spells you don't even know Ms. Fairy Godmother." Edmund said.
"We have ways for making you talk." Evelyn said. The twins snapped their fingers and magic sparkles appeared around Alex and Conner's eyes. Alex screamed as snakes and spiders appeared on the ground and came towards her. Conner's eyes closed as he saw images of his loved ones dead. His children, grandchildren, Alex...but one vision shocked him. It was Bree. Conner could feel their spell fade away, and he then slipped into what seemed like a dream.
Conner was in a dark place filled with dark purple light. He looked at the floor and saw his reflection. He gasped, he looked about 30 years younger.
"Oh my God! Where am I? Where did their crazy spell send me?" Conner said.
"Conner?" A familiar voice said.
"Wait, Bree?" Conner said. He saw a figure walk towards him. Once he recognized who it was he ran over.
"Conner." Bree said and smiled. Bree wore a long and simple purple dress and she also looked 30 years younger. Conner's eyes started the water, and he picked her up and kissed her.
"Oh Bree, I've missed you so much." Conner said as he cried.
"I've missed you too." Bree said as she hugged her husband tightly.
"Is this a dream?" Conner asked.
"Sort of. This is the vision realm." Bree said. "Edmund must have spelled you. He hasn't really mastered his greatest fear spell. Instead he's put you under a spell to see the vision realm."
"How do you know this?" Conner asked.
"Conner do you remember that day? The day I died?"
"Of course I do. We were at home, and then...wait I don't remember what happened next." Conner said. "That just be my mind forgetting things. I've been forgetting things lately. But this is something I don't think I would forget."
"Conner, you only remember those things because they've put a spell on you, and the kids, and Alex...everyone. Conner, I'm alive. They saved me. Please remember."
Conner ran through a portal with Bree in his arms. Bree was in a lot of pain and she passed out. Conner didn't know what to do, he knew the only person to help her would be Alex.

"Alex!" Conner yelled. Alex came down the stairs and ran to Conner.
"What are you doing here? What happened?" Alex asked.
"I don't know, she woke up in pain and then she passed out. She still breathing though. Alex please, you and magic are the only thing. The doctors couldn't help, they think she'll be dead within hours. Please Alex." Conner said through the tears. "I can't loose her."
"Bring her upstairs, I'll try." Alex said. Conner brought Bree upstairs and Alex followed. He set her on the bed and Alex looked at her and closed her eyes. Magic light came out of Alex's hands and went into Bree's body.
"It's not working." Alex said. "I'm sorry."
"We can heal her." A voice said behind them. Conner and Alex turned around and saw Evelyn and Edmund.
"Who are you? What do you mean?" Conner asked.
"We'll make you a deal. We can heal her. We know magic, that you don't Ms. Fairy Godmother. But we want something in return. Information."
"Alex, I have to take their offer." Conner whispered to Alex.
"No Conner. You don't know them. Plus what information do they need to know?" Alex said.
"Please help me, anything." Conner said to them.
"Conner no!" Alex said and grabbed his arm.
"Alex, if you knew you could save Arthur...I know you would." Conner said. "I have to take this."
"Conner, I'll find a way. Don't it's a trick." Alex pleaded. Conner thought about it. He couldn't imagine his life without Bree. He wasn't ready to be alone.
"Deal. Now help her." Conner said.
"Great." Edmund snapped her fingers and Bree and him disappeared.
"WHERE DID SHE GO? YOU LIED!" Conner yelled.
"We didn't lie. We will heal her, and the information we need will come from her." Evelyn said. He waved his hand and Alex passed out onto the bed, and Conner was transported back to his home back in the Otherworld and was asleep on his couch. He then spread his magic to everyone who knew Bree and made them think that she was dead.
"This is a lie. This is part of their spell." Conner said.
"No it's not Conner. I'm here, please believe me. I didn't want to give them the information they wanted, they stuck me here." Bree said and started to cry. "Conner please, these two are horrible. I can see visions of you and kids through this place but I can't talk to you. I can only communicate to you through this spell, when someone if put under this spell themselves."
"STOP! YOUR NOT ALIVE." Conner yelled not wanting to believe it.
"I am, Conner please!" Bree cried.
"Prove to me this is real." Conner said. Bree kissed him passionately and hugged him tightly.
"If I wasn't real would I kiss you and hug you like this." Bree said. "If you still don't believe me, we have three kids...Elizabeth, Matthew and Carrie. We have 5 amazing grandsons, Ayden, Grayson, Brighton, Sammy and Levi, and one amazing granddaughter Charlie. Please, please believe me. Don't leave me here."
"Only one person would remember the names of all our grandchildren." Conner said as he smiled and tears came to his eyes. "So your trapped here in this realm. Wait so am I not trapped here?"
"I'm here in this realm, but your not. Like this realms name, your having a vision, like a dream, but this dream is real." Bree said. "Edmund, has a tendency to put people under a spell where they can see this place and talk to the people here, but their not trapped like I am. I know it might seem complicated, but you have to just believe me. I'm real, and I'm here."
"Don't worry I'll save you. If it's the last thing I do."
"Conner, there another thing you need to do before saving me. Get our children out of this world. They found Charlie, they have her, she's safe. They're coming to save you."
"They're here? How did they find out?" Conner said. "And how do I get to this visions realm?"
Before Bree could answer, Conner woke up and was back in reality. But what he didn't know yet is that he still looked 30 years younger.
"Conner!" Alex said. "Are you ok? You've been out of it for hours."
"Alex...we've got to get out of here. Wait Alex you look, young again?"
"While you were passed out, they explained it. Apparently they know powerful spells I don't even know, and they haven't perfected them. This is a side affected, I think. Or they just messed up the spell." Alex said.
"If they messed up the spell, I actually want to thank them. This is awesome, I look 50 again." Conner said. "Anyways, Alex where are they?"
"They left, but I'm sure they'll be back. What happened to you?"
"I was in the vision realm. Alex...my kids are here, and they're coming for me, and..."
"And what?"
"Bree, she's alive."

Kill the Harem
I was never a person who struggled with anything. Whatever I wanted to achieve, I achieved, except for finding a good reason for living. That was until I died. Perhaps it was karma, or perhaps it was some particularly sick god. I woke up in a world full of magic and encountered all these women who became romantically obsessed with me. It bears an uncanny resemblance to those garbage isekai series that I had the misfortune of reading in high school. The problem is, I loathe isekai. It got to the point where ever time I read about a busty elf-girl wanting to follow the protagonist, I wanted to throw something. It's illogical and it ruins the flow of the story. But now, I'm the one getting harassed by such illogical people? What complete and utter drivel. If any obsessive crazy person tries to make me theirs without even caring about my opinion, I'll f*cking kill them! I'll kill them all! I'm getting back home no matter what. My favorite manga hasn't finished yet and I want to read it to the end. Q&A Section Q: Is the protagonist mentally healthy? A: No, not even close. Q: Are all the female characters stupid? A: Barring extenuating circumstances, nobody rational would fall for a guy like the protagonist, so there's a bit of selection bias going on here. Q: Is this about a Gary Stu killing a bunch of irrational harem characters in a cliche isekai world? A: Go reread the title and the synopsis. Q: Do the women die because they won't sleep with the protagonist? A: No. I'm not sure where anyone got that from since it's entirely the opposite of what happens.
