Chapter Fifteen Part I

 

A/N: Hello to all of my 50-ish readers! I will once again be writing this story! I have gained a lot of motivation from the novels I translated! Also, I spent a lot of time on SHF…. Those 20, or so, days were the much needed break I needed.

 

Some official news before starting the chapter: 

 

1). There is no definite amount of time between uploads. So, I’ll update the chapters whenever I feel like it. 

 

2). I have a solid plot for this. I will be sticking with it ‘til the end, but will make sure that there are many side stories along the way so as to have “Character Building”. 

 

3). I have now implemented a new writing style, which portrays the things from Cadmar’s POV into a darker, more colder perspective, although comedic at points. I think this is needed in a SoL novel to give it some “uniqueness”. 

 

4). The heroines will slowly be introduced! There will be separate arcs for each and every one of them!! You know, so as to give time for the romance to blossom. Each of those arcs will be like “sub-arcs” for the “School Life Arc”.

 

5). The comedy will also begin! New characters will be introduced! Yanderes! Tsunderes! Overpowered characters that aren’t the MC! Strict butlers! Monsters! More pets! More from the Divine Realms! Spoiler! Spoiler ahead! Don’t read anymore if you don’t wanna be spoiled! A new very important person shall be met. The important person shall have a very, very, very, very, important role in this story!! This important person is a “he”, by the way. He is unknowingly an important character, because I made him into one!

 

Let us see how Cadmar’s life turns for the more chaotic as he switches between cold and dark, yet warm and kind! How will he make the heroines fall for him with his charm? Is there a reasonable explanation except for his power as the MC? Only time can tell! Make sure you reply if you feel that anything’s off, either in how I portrayed a character or created a lot of unnecessary stuff! Tell me if there are any misspelled words, tenses, etc.! 

 

This chapter will be having a lot of new information, so be ready! You do not need to remember everything, if you think you are required to. If it was anything important, chances are, I will probably have it be brought up again. Just lettin’ ya know. A new world may be shown….

 

Now, this author’s note has been too long. I will need to start the chapter! Enjoy it~~

Deep darkness. I can see deep, cold, and miserable-looking darkness in my sight. Wait. I am not “seeing” anything. I am sensing the darkness. I seem to not be having a pair of eyes right now. What is this state I am in? Did a person attack me? Did I die?

 

Oh. I can see the pitch black darkness start to have a little white light poking out of it. It is blinding. Stop it. Huh? I do not seem to be feeling any pain? Why is it so? Why am I so calm? What is this state, once again? Am I in a Spirit-like form? What is a “Spirit”?

 

I turn my head to the side. I can’t. I do not have a head. What do I have? Let me move my arms a bit… Nope. I do not have arms, either. Legs? Let’s try to move them a little. Nothing. I do not have a head, legs, and arms. Chances are, I do not have a torso. Let us try to see it. How to test it?

 

Maybe try to flex? No. That would only work for my arms. What am I thinking? Wait. Realization has struck me in the form of nothing. What am I? Who am I? Is there anything? Am I even here? What am I doing “here”? Is this “here” nothing? Then is there “something” in this place called nothing? Yes, it is now something, for I have given this “nothing” the name of “something”. “Nothing” no longer exists. 

 

Then, I am also something, for I have already given myself the title “I”. The question lies in where and what I am. What “something” am I? Oh, the world is looking to be a bit more brighter from the original pitch-black darkness. The little dot of light that was there before is expanding. It has surrounded me. Wait, what is that underneath the darkness?

 

The color is… transparent. The shape of the thing underneath the dot of light is….. The shape of a body. It seems to be a large body, measuring over a hundred meters. Then, that small dot of light is… larger than one hundred meters? How is that possible? I can clearly see it…. Am I far larger than one hundred meters to be able to see a light that is larger than one hundred meters easily? What is my size? Wait, then how large is this space that is now renamed [Something] to be able to hold something of my size? 

 

Hmmmm, a torrent of information is coming into my mind. Mind? Oh, I seem to have that. I don’t think I had that before. If I have grown a mind, have I grown a body? Let us see. All the while, the light seems to have been growing brighter and brighter, and has been devouring the darkness. Oh, I seem to have a body with fully functioning arms and legs. 

 

Hmmm? Am I floating? Where am I standing? According to what Feeh said, there should be a thing called “gravity”... wait? Feeh? Who’s he? 

 

I try to grasp the memory in my mind, newly acquired by the way, but it seems to have been a fleeting one. Darn it. ...Mmmm? I am feeling more emotions now. Am I growing with time? What is time? Is time in this place?

 

The light has started to form arches, with each arch being like a hand grasping out. I realize another thing. It looks like the bright light is actually coming out of me instead of surrounding me… am I the cause?

 

Ohhh, the big body underneath is being illuminated! Yipee! I really wanna find out what the body looks like! Is it humanoid, I wonder? Or is it in the shape of something else? Human? What is that? Ah, my memory’s gone again. Let’s not bother with that. I feel really sleepy. 

 

As I yawn, I start to observe the body, which looks humanoid, with my complete focus. After all, besides the white light and [Nothing], the body’s the only thing I can see here. The white light has gone ahead and started illuminating the place around me. 

 

I yawn again. As I move my hand in the reflexive action that comes with a yawn, I find that the bright, white light is following my movements. The arches all move upwards, just like my hand. If that is so, then can I move my hand over the body to illuminate it? Let’s try!

 

I stretch my hand outwards at the body, and the light follows me. Oh? I cannot see my hand? Is it transparent like the body underneath? Why are my thoughts going around different questions so fast? I don’t even have enough time to answer on thought before another one comes barging in!

 

This isn’t helping. I should try to focus on something else. Something… what to focus on… hmmmm…. Oh yeah! The body! Let’s give my utmost attention to it! 

 

The lights move accordingly to my body. The lights are much larger than my body. Then, I just need to extend my hand to the body. I think I’ve thought of this before. Can’t be too sure.

 

I point towards the body and the long arches of light also do the same. Hovering over the body, the lights look so….. Fascinating…. Oops, better get back on track! Let’s see….

 

The body is translucent, as I may have thought before…. And the body is humanoid…. As I may have thought before….

 

Some new facts to be found are that…. There is only one eye on the head of the large, yet small-to-me specimen. The bones that show through its translucent skin are also very thick. Each one must be as large as…. What, exactly? 

 

I need something to compare it with! Ah! Let’s just create something that allows me to compare the body with! …. But how do I create things??? 

 

<<<< Hello >>>>

 

What was that voice that I just heard? There’s no one else around me, so where did it come from…. Wait… did the body….

 

<<<< Yes, I talked >>>>

 

The one large eye on the body below me opened. You can talk? I thought you were dead?

 

<<<< Death? Fufu! Such a weak creature cannot take me! >>>>

 

Death is a creature?

 

<<<< Of course! Death is the God of Death! He tried to court me once, but I never accepted! >>>>

 

Huh? I think we are thinking about different things…. I was talking about how death may have taken you and your body died….. Not trying to court you…..

 

<<<< ! We weren’t on the same page?! >>>>

 

Nope.

 

<<<< Fuuuuu, and here I was, thinking that I let out that secret to someone who already knows of my situation….. >>>>

 

What situation? I ask the sighing creature below me. The creature’s voice isn’t really a voice. It is more like a thought. The body’s mouth isn’t moving at all. The only sign of life from it is the rare blinks of its translucent eyes. Mine, too.

 

<<<< The situation about how the Death God wanted to take me as his bride, but I rejected him…. Because he is too weak…. >>>>

 

Hmmm? You’re a female? Are you not ashamed of showing off your body like that? Hmmm? Tell me? 

 

<<<< Who do you think I am?! I would never do such a thing as that! This form is just one that I thought most boys your age would like as a companion! You are an odd one! Most would either scream in terror after seeing me or start to jump in joy as they see me! >>>>

 

Boy? So I take it that that’s what I am? By the way, what am I? Do you know?

 

<<<< Yes, yes. I know who you are. >>>>

 

Seeing as the one-eyed thing below me stopped talking, I pushed a bit more…. And….? Aren’t you going to start explaining who I am?

 

<<<< Nope. Can’t do it. It’s against the rules. I only have a limited amount of time here. Let’s see…. oh Supreme God Hendrick! I only have about 20 seconds left before the next time we meet becomes a month! Shoot! >>>>

 

Where are we, though? Why the heck are you so rushed….

 

<<<< Ah, let’s start with that! We are in your consciousness! You are in your soul form! So, you are basically just a ball of gas, but have imagined yourself to gain hands and a body! >>>>

 

Interesting….

 

<<<< Okay, only 15 seconds left! I am a “God”! A being that lives waaaaay up in the sky! Get it?! Good! Now, I accidentally made a few mistakes here and there and our souls got interconnected! Right now, “I” am basically you. I need us to become independent souls again, because I am meeting with my brother in a few months. It is an important thing, so we gotta be quick. I’ll give you some instructions, and please follow them to unlock my soul from yours! >>>>

 

Why should I? Is there a reason I should help you?

 

<<<< Boys like you like things...…. Because I’m pretty? >>>>

 

You’re ugly.

 

Dokan! 

 

As if hit by a highly lethal blow, the “ugly” below’s eyes closed on impact, and its face made an astounded face…. Then it turned into one of deep anger. Why?

 

<<<< Oh, you little boy!! You’re gonna get it! Don’t you know that calling a woman ugly is a terrible sin?! Do you not know that?! >>>>

 

But, I am just correcting you…. You act like a child.

 

<<<< Don’t compare me to a child! Humph! >>>>

 

With a pouty expression on that ugly-looking face, everything seems to be “ugly to the extreme”. Pathetic.

 

<<<< ?!!?!!!!! >>>>

 

Oh, don’t go and make a shocked face like that. You idiot…. Just kidding….. But really, you are acting like a child when it gets proven wrong…..

 

<<<< I am not! >>>>

 

Just proved my point. Haha.

 

<<<< ? You laughed? But you seemed like a cold type of person…..? >>>>

 

Oh, yeah. I got this thing in me, according to Feeh, and it’s changing my personality.

 

<<<< Okay. I’ll look into that later, since I will be living here for a few months at the least…. >>>>

 

Who’s Feeh?

 

<<<< Huh? >>>>

 

Ya know, that person that I talked about. I keep forgetting about things… do you know who Feeh is?

 

<<<< That’s just a side effect of being in your soul for the first time. You’ll start remembering eventually…. >>>>

 

Okay. Thanks. *Yawn*

 

I’m getting really sleepy…. I’ll just go to sleep. Goodnight.

 

<<<< Oh? Oh?! No! Don’t leave! Why did the time have to— >>>>

 

Laying curled up in that position that I got, I fell asleep. Maybe I’ll remember who Feeh is?

 

A/N: 

 

End of Part I for this chapter. I need cliffhangers, people! 

 

Some more news!

 

1). My chapters may break off into parts if I need them to
