The Author Is Speechless

The book he wrote wasn't some ordinary book, nor was he an ordinary person. He holds the ability to see the future unknowingly and writes it down as great stories.  Little did he know, he would wake up in a different body in a world where he finds out the characters in his book…A world of magic, swords and monsters.  'Wait, this isn't a world from my novel. It's a real world and the novel is just my prediction of some people just like the guardian said. So I will just enjoy the show as an audience and leave after the story ends. I have a whole new world to discover in front of me.' But what awaits him was something he could never imagine. In front of the world, in front of the whole universe, his assumption was just a grind of sand. The truth of the world made him rethink his life and the life he lived back in another world.  Viktor North, the author, finds himself in the middle of the whole universe where he was nothing but an extra later in his life as he kept living. An extra who was abandoned by his mother, his brother who was an elemental guardian and also a demigod, his race and the God.  'But I prefer to sleep than going against these unwanted people and unwanted problems. I want to sleep. I just want to shut my eyes and sleep under my warm blanket, probably forever if it's possible.' This is the story of an author, a grand magician, a guardian who somehow became a god and the only thing he could think of was sleep.  He is the definition of what a 'Shut-in' is. ... ...

Sunset

I only have 3 days till my entrance exam. And I didn't study a single thing. Adonis seems pretty happy that he found his food today. He'll be okay for a year without eating anything. 

The reason why Adonis was able to eat the woman's soul was that she was a half-demon. 

A half-demon means she was born half. Or a person made a pact with a demon and it entered his body in exchange for something.

But if a demon made a pact with a human, they became vulnerable and a great food source to their own kind. So they had to leave their kind and live among the humans in order to save their host and their life.

The woman who was the mistress of the duke made a pact with a demon and in exchange, she had to kill the branch family as a sacrifice. 

A demon can sense another demon from miles away, so it wasn't hard for Adonis to point one out. So, it was very easy for him to mark her as his food. And when a demon marks their prey, they can't run away without a fight.

So it was like two birds with one stone for Viktor.

The scammer got caught and Adonis became satisfied with his food.

Back at home.

"Master, are you going to sleep now? It's only 8 AM."

"Yes, I'm so tired after writing for 27 hours. I'm mentally exhausted right now. I need to rest my eyes."

Viktor crawled upstairs with his last bar of energy and went to bed with his shoes on. He was so tired that taking off his outdoor jacket was too much work for him.

And he fell asleep.

Adonis's POV:

"He went to sleep without eating his breakfast. He didn't eat anything in 2 days, so is he going to be alright?"

Adonis was thinking about going into his master's room but he stopped because of an order.

He was strictly ordered not to wake him up from his sleep even if the world gets destroyed. As long as his life isn't threatened, he should not wake him up.

So, he left the hallway with a broom in his hand to clean the mess the royal investigators made in just two days.

"Oh my, looks like they've stolen something from the guest room. I need to list the missing things and take them back."

  I need to cook something really delicious for tonight. We are finally back at home without any problems and my master is sleeping peacefully. 

What a wonderful day!

I should clean this whole mansion in just one day. I want to show him a newly polished floor when he wakes up. 

Viktor's POV:

In an empty maze of library, Viktor opened his eyes slowly and saw the bright light in the middle of library premises. He woke up floating around his lucid dream and saw the old place where he floated around. 

"Hm? Didn't I sleep peacefully? Then why am I waking up?"

This body really loves to prevent me from sleeping where I love to sleep.

An easy life is sure hard to get.

He rubbed his eyes and made a bed appear in this lucid dream to lay down. But the zero gravity didn't make it happen. His back was barely touching the futon.

"Ugh! It's so uncomfortable! I want to sleep!!!!"

Seriously, what is the meaning of this library? It has no books, no people, there's no clue how to enter inside that locked room. It's so annoying.

Well, it's fun to walk around inside your unconsciousness. I can fly, I can play chess, and I can make things in my dream if I think about it to visualise the shape of that object. I love the way it pops out of nowhere in front of me if I want it. 

But, after experiencing this for the past 25 years, it's frustrating. It's so boring and pointless. 

I don't know the meaning of this empty library. Sound I collect books? Or does it want something else from me?

"I DON'T KNOW!!!"

He screamed at the top of his lungs and woke up to his reality, and removed the blanket from his head. 

The window was open beside his bed so he looked outside through the window to see the sunset.

The day's ending sunlight was entering through his window and his hair was silver enough to reflect the light of the yellow sun.

He looked outside and saw the sea, it was getting dark yellow, people were leaving for home and big boats were tied on the dock. 

Should I go outside?

He mumbled...

He went outside barefoot, his old habit. Because he could feel himself closer to the world.

The old port docks weren't far away from his house so he walked all the way there to see the water. He was afraid of the water but his curiosity was pulling him like magnets. 

When he reached the shore, he saw the dock was empty. It was an old abandoned dock with ghost ships. 

He felt relieved.

He could feel the cold ground of the wooden dock on the water. The sound of the waves, the smell of the old wooden boats, and the salty wind were blowing his shoulder-long silver hair.

 He could feel the freedom inside his mind and soul.

He could feel his heart expanding throughout the sea that reached the horizon.  

All the dark misty cloud that was stored inside his chest was clearing with the peace he was feeling all over his body. 

He closed his eyes and felt the evening warmth of the light, his ears ringing by the blow of the wind. 

He took a deep breath and held it for a moment before releasing it.

Haaaaa....

A soft exhaling sound came out of his chest. 

He opened his eyes and saw the sun was already half gone into the horizon. 

I wish I could let myself loose with the tides so that I can rest in peace forever...

Sorry readers. I'm a little unstable right now because of some family issues.

I'm trying my best not to break down by writing all my depression on the keyboard.

sorry for the late update ...
