Hi guys, if you're interested, give a try to another novel of mine, Rise of the Urban God. It's going to complete soon. If you're interested in the lore of 'vivre' then you can check my novel Jim is Him which is already completed with about 400 chapters. Thank you. Cheers.
In Sciocidad, also known as the phantom city which floated through the sky also known as the lower heaven.At the border, Russell and Jessica were talking with a mature lady whose name they didn’t even know. All he knew was that she was the librarian of the clan that lived in this city.“My goal is to stop another world war from happening,” Russell told her. “If a war breaks out again, then the world really is going to end.”“Silly young man,” the lady named Uzza smiled, “the third world you were worrying about has long started and is still ongoing.”“W-What?” Russell was startled.“Food, air, water, and even people’s very blood has been polluted for decades now and it’s still happening today,” Uzza said. “We see a lot of chemicals being sprayed in the air through special jets. There are nanoparticles, graphene, and even parasites in those chemicals, which will mix with water, food, and can even enter people’s bodies through their skin. Everything the media tells you is fake. The elect
Nicole finished her work in the hotel and walked out with Systa who was in the form of a little girl now.“Why do you look like that?” Nicole asked her.“Look like what?” Systa asked her back.“Look like you’re weighing life's burdens on your shoulders?” Nicole said.“I was just thinking about something,” Systa replied.Nicole picked her up onto her waist.“W-What are you doing?” Systa quickly said, her cheeks flushing. “This is embarrassing. Put me down.”“Get used to it,” Nicole pinched Systa’s cheeks. “You know, I watched Gabe grow, but I missed watching a girl grow. I didn’t have a daughter, you see. So, I feel like keeping you with me for as long as possible.”“S-Stop pulling my cheeks!” Systa found it annoying because her skin was not perfectly authentic human-standard.“Stop acting like that,” Nicole stopped pulling the cheek and gently rubbed it. “You’re a girl, so you’re going to raise kids one day. You shouldn’t get angry easily. Your worth will be decided by how good you ca
Nicole was getting out of the taxi, but Systa held her hand and stopped her. “I’m not feeling the urgency anymore. Can we go somewhere else now?”Nicole couldn’t make sense of Systa’s words. The little girl was struggling until seconds ago, and she’s fine now? Something didn’t feel right. Whether Systa was playing games or not, Nicole didn’t want to take the risk. “I’m taking you to the toilet room once.”“Ugh,” Systa hissed at her. “Listen to me.”Nicole was startled. “Did you just hiss at me? And why are you gritting your teeth?”“Because you don’t understand the trouble that you’re in!” Systa blurted. “Driver, turn the car around and get going.”The driver, however, looked at her with a silly expression as if Systa was not the one who’s going to pay him for the ride.Systa didn’t like that the driver was treating her as a little girl. She wished she could show her powers to him, but because of Nicole, she had to hold herself back.“Can you wait here for half an hour for us?” Nicole
After losing his delivery driver job for thinking his female manager liked him and saying to her ‘I love you’, Gabe Brando was without a doubt experiencing the lowest, crappiest phase of his life. Being used by women, only to then be treated like trash was not new to Gabe, but it would still shock and break him every single time. At present, seated in the opposite row to him in the bus was Sheila, a divorced woman from the same neighborhood he lived in, and she had this ‘I’m too good for you’ look. Gabe couldn’t even make eye contact with her for long. He felt too inferior for many reasons. He was jobless. He had thin hair. He was slightly cross-eyed, and he didn’t consider himself handsome, either. He thought, no, he knew he had no chance even with a divorced woman who he also owed some money. Such was the state the no-teen-ever Gabe was in. “I washed my head today, and I lost more hair today,” he muttered under his breath. “Is it because I’m buying cheap shampoo, or is it just t
“Are you kidding me?” Gabe’s gall bladder almost loosened from hearing the system’s words. “How do you expect me to defeat that monster of a man? He only needs to punch me casually for me to hug the ground for good.”[Don’t you want a million dollars?]“I do, but give me some reasonable task,” Gabe blurted. “Not an impossible one.”[Host Gabe, you’re not cooperating, so I’ll be taking control over your body.]“Taking control? What are you…” Gabe’s body convulsed for a second. And then he was opening and closing his hands against his will. “Hey, stop this! It’s not funny!”His body turned around and entered the tent.The big guy was threatening the interviewer, “If you don’t give me this job, I’ll come to your house tonight and fuck your wife right before your eyes.”The interviewer trembled visibly. “Y-You’re overqualified for this job, Mr. Bart. W-What’s your reason for wanting to join as a mere museum’s guard? Are you planning to steal something from the museum?”“Just shut your tra
Mia Reyes.When Gabe was in sixth standard, Mia joined his school. She used to wear glasses and also cough most of the time because her health wasn’t good. Gabe immediately pitied her because his aunt’s health also wasn’t good. The other girls in the class teased and mocked Mia a lot in the beginning, but after the quarterly exams, Mia was ranked third in the class, and so most of their mouths naturally shut up.Mia wouldn’t talk much, but she would help anyone that asked her to help clarify their doubts on any subject.Gabe also went to her a few times, and she helped him. Gabe didn’t talk to her much other than a limited number of times, but he gave her something that would benefit her health every single time he met her, whether it be blueberries or beets. And he probably looked at her the most than anyone else in the class. He was highly innocent and utterly clueless about the type of feelings he had for her back then.After growing up, however, he realized that she was his first
Gabe didn’t cry for long, or rather he couldn’t. A couple of teenagers had entered the alley, kissing, and not at all caring that he was there. He had to leave when it should have been the opposite. The teenagers should have been the ones that left.He remembered that he didn’t even kiss a girl until he crossed 20. It wasn’t that he didn’t want to; it was just that he couldn’t.After going to the side, Gabe asked, “You said you’d give me a million dollars, right? Give me them now.”[You didn’t beat Bart. I did after taking over your body. Besides, I never said I’ll give you the money right away.]“What? Then when are you going to give me?” Gabe sounded frustrated.[You must level up and get stronger. Then I can give you everything in the world.]Gabe couldn’t fully trust the system’s words.Gabe then came home.It was a small house with no lawn or any extra space other than the four rooms: living room, a kitchen, a bathroom, and a bedroom.In the bedroom, there were two men currently
The system forced Gabe to spit, and the half-chewed chicken piece and bones flew out of his mouth and fell on top of his friends.Utterly shocked, Gabe thought everything was over. He thought they would gang up and beat him so badly he would take a few weeks to recover.However, to his shock and relief, they didn’t even react.They were already too drunk at that point to realize what had happened.“Whew…” Gabe breathed a sigh of relief but then scolded the system. “Are you trying to ruin my relationship with them?”[What sort of relationship is this? You should be alpha, not a freaking beta when you interact with others!] The system also sharply responded. [Don’t show me this type of behavior again, or you’ll lose my respect.]Gabe felt threatened by the system’s words. “But, didn’t Jesus tell us to be meek and humble?”[There’s a difference between being meek and miserable. Jesus is the alpha of alphas. He never begged people to believe in God. He commanded everyone to repent from th
