Hereafter

INTERLUDE – Nightmares & Tentacles

There were five…

Heather walked silently in front of the other four champion candidates, afraid to make eye contact with them. They journeyed through the dungeon, each waiting eagerly to see who would be next to betray the others. The first to fall was Sophia, at the hands of Jason, he even ate her heart, but since then, the five of them had an uneasy truce. Heather fought against the few creatures that lurked in the darkness, all while keeping a close eye on her fellow candidates. Th...

CHAPTER 13 - A Fragment & A Jumbled Wad

The victory was mine and mine alone! I had defeated the chimera without Ava’s puppeteering, who I was certain to otherwise be known as Circe, the Primordial Goddess of Two-Faced Lying Cunts… Or was it Magic? Let’s just say it was a shitty revaluation, and what’s more annoying, I was just starting to come around to the idea of having a split personality. Whatever! At least my body was melting through the undead, lich, beast, thingie now that his phylacteries were locked away w...

CHAPTER 12 - Boldly Going Where No Pudding Has Gone Before!

Woohoo! I’m back in control of my body…

Pulling my eyes away from my freed hands and upwards, I gazed into hell as the undead chimera charged right at me like a raging bull, and suddenly, I hated my life!

Oh shit… I’m back in control of my body!

A funny thing about me, I’ve always been a bit extreme, often taking things way too far to make a stupid point. I was sort of a bitch that way. For example, before fully coming out of the closet, I had a b...

Ai Art

I had too much fun playing around with MidJourney's Ai. 

A few of them are pretty similar, but hopefully, there are no duplicates.

CHAPTER 11 - No Strings on Me!

Back in control of my body, I first tossed the sword and shield to the ground. They were useless in my hands anyway. The first wave of fighting within the coliseum ruins had been a mob battle with undead gladiators. Ava, my supposed split personality, had thoroughly dominated the arena using the sword and shield in combination with an area attack spell, Necrotic Flames. The spell could be focused on a single target, but the way Ava used it to create a circular zone of complete mayhem wherever...

CHAPTER 10 - Passenger to Mayhem

The entrance to my next boss fight was a pair of rusted gates leading into an ancient coliseum that lay in ruins. Peeking through the iron gates, I saw three awe-inspiring herculean statues within the heart of the arena, looking as if they were poised for battle. From where I stood, I couldn’t tell if they were made from granite or marble, but it didn’t matter. I knew they were the bosses of this arena. Put my magic against any living foe, and I was a terrifying, unstoppable force of acid...

CHAPTER 9 - Creepy Cute

Dreams are like the stars, infinite and ever so beautiful as they sparkle in the dark of night, forever out of our reach. So it is incumbent upon us to forge our own stars.

As I awoke from a wonderful dream, I stretched my arms into the air. In it, I had become what everyone had always accused me of being, a monster. I was powerful, ruthless, and without mercy… My eyes burst open in alarm as I took in my surroundings! Mana Sight instantaneously connected to a set of eyeballs out of sh...

Ai art

I may have gone overboard, but my membership is ending with MidJourney, so I decided not to let it go to waste. 

CHAPTER 8 - They taste like chicken!

Here I was, standing on two legs once again. Only this time, I found myself outside a dungeon boss’s chamber. Altering my form between spider and human-like had gotten much easier, and I now had hair, albeit it was three long tentacles, but it counted. Still working on breasts. Tentacles coming out of the chest didn’t look right. Oh, and I had a mouth, although my smile reminded me of my granny without her dentures. However, my biggest achievement was with Mana Sight and how I could focus...

CHAPTER 7 - Dissociative Disorder

“Welcome to Ockpool,” the old werewolf said to me as he hobbled through the broken gate into the village.

I was impressed at the sight of a once-marvelous city, but now only ruins remained. I don’t know what I had expected: huts, tents, teepees, a Viking stronghold. This so-called monster sanctuary was a graveyard. Stone and brick buildings ran along the cobblestone streets of a once densely packed community, but now it was filled with wreckage, rubble, and desperation. Those that...

CHAPTER 6 - Wartie, Saggy, Gaping & Muddy

I found myself in a peculiar predicament. It hadn’t even been two hours, maybe less than an hour, since I’d been reincarnated, and here I was, deep within some crazy dungeon, following a wart-covered goblin child to a monster sanctuary of all things. Not to mention, I’ve killed a ghoul, a succubus, and a few spiders. And I’ve eaten all of their bodies, including a random girl’s corpse. That doesn’t even cover that I’m supposed to be some dark champion candidate competing against...

CHAPTER 5 - Cannibalism & Peanut Butter

“Pssst!”

That wasn’t from one of them… What or who was that? I thought I had just heard someone, but as I turned, nobody was there. Wait a minute, [Thermalsense]. My sight began to distort into an array of oranges, purples, and blacks. And to my surprise, I found the heat of a little square blob hiding amongst some stones.

“Hide! They’re going to see you!”

Hide? But why, those five down there can’t see over the cliff edg...
