blaze_master100 Here is another long chapter. I'm going back to the main story next chapter. Hope you enjoy the chapter. I had to spend 3 days, a big bag of pizza rolls and a gallon of iced tea to right this before school started tomorrow. I plan to upload on weekends do to school.
Kagor
"Dammit Mithreil you bastard! It's only been 6 months and you're already not doing your job!"(?)
*BAM*
"Fuck! Agathram stop all reincarnation right now!"(?)
"What did you just-?"(Agathram)
"Do it now! Or do you want your friend to die!?(?)
"Fine"(Agathram)
"Good I'll be there in 2 minutes."(?)
3,2,1 and
"What the fuck are you up to!?"(?)
"And what might you be asking about?"(?)
"Blaze don't play fucking stupid with me. I know you know what I'm talking about!"(?)
"You are right but, I won't answer unless you tell me with your own words."
"You fu-"
*Thump*
I throw a knife right next to my little unannounced guest's throat and leaving a scratch on her neck.
"Mind your damn manners Sarreil. I was being polite earlier but I'm not in a good mood and you burst into my space cussing at me without so much as even knocking on my fucking door. Then start acting like I'm the one who did something wrong. Don't forget your place Sarreil and especially don't forget who you're talking to. While I'm more lenient if you did that to any of the others, they probably would have killed you without a second thought."(Blaze)
"Sorry, I was wrong."(Sarreil)
"Fine whatever. Why are you here?"(Blaze)
"I came because the request to give my blessing."(Sarreil)
"If I'm not mistaken it was a request to give a young True Nemean lion it. What about it? I gave you permission to do it."(Blaze)
"That's just it! You never give permission to anyone outside of that oversized flame chicken or when we fuck someone over during our jobs!"(Sarreil)
"So, you want me to take away the permission?"(Blaze)
"No. I just want to know why you allowed it."(Sarreil)
"I'll tell you under certain conditions."(Blaze)
"And what would that be?"(Sarreil)
"First go get Nyx, Second bring your brother with you I don't care if you have to drag him here. Third, you and Nyx are going to help me with something. If you do that, I'll give you your answer."(Blaze)
"That's it?"(Sarreil)
"What you want more work?"(Blaze)
"Nope. I'll go do it."(Sarreil)
"Well, be back in 15 minutes."(Blaze)
"Ok."(Sarreil)
*Click*
"Well time to go see Agathram."
*Snap*
Death Pocket Dimension
"Hey Agathram."(Blaze)
"Aah! Fucking hell will you stop doing that and enter the normal way!?(Agathram)
"But it's easier this way."(Blaze)
"I don't care! You're going to give me a heart attack doing that!"(Agathram)
"Agathram that's not possible. You have the authority of death. The most that will happen is you getting spooked nothing else."(Blaze)
"I know that dammit. Just let me have my moment."(Agathram)
"Whatever."(Blaze)
Now where are they? Hmm. Ah found them good thing they just got here.
"Hey Blaze, why did you have me stop the reincarnation cycle? Now I'm going to have to do so much work now."(Agathram)
"Hold that thought for a second."(Blaze)
"Wha-"(Agathram)
*Snap*
"And he teleported."(Agathram)
There they are hmm looks like they are being lead all together by two reapers of the wolf form I guess that makes sense. They were True Fenrir. Even reapers show some respect for them.
"Hey wolf reapers come over here."(Blaze)
"You called us Creator."(Wolf 1)
"Yep, bring those Fenrir to me. I'll be taking over their escort."(Blaze)
"What!? No, you can't! This job is beneath you Creator."(Wolf 2)
"Did you just tell me no? Do you wish to be destroyed?"(Blaze)
"I would never! It's just doing this job is beneath you."(Wolf 2)
"I don't care if you think it's beneath me or not, I need those Fenrir for something that is above your job to know. So, follow my orders and bring them to me. And don't tell them that I'm the creator."(Blaze)
""As you wish.""(Wolf 1 and 2)
(Leah POV 8 minutes earlier)
Huh what's going on? Didn't I die?
"Are you Leah Frostfang?"(?)
"Yes? How do you know that and who are you?"(Leah)
When I looked at the place I heard the voice, I saw a transparent wolf.
"Me? I'm a reaper that does not have a name. And I'm here to escort you and your family to the reincarnation area of the death pocket dimension."(Wolf 1)
So, I did die.
"Wait you said family. Who else died?"(Leah)
"I'll tell you on the way to them."(Wolf 1)
"Fine."(Leah)
"Ok. So, others are Caesar, Lyra Frostfang, Lucas Frostfang, Carey Frostfang, and Cole Frostfang."(Wolf 1
"So almost all of them died. What about Rina!? Is Rina, ok?!"(Leah)
"I don't know. I just know that she isn't dead."(Wolf 1)
"Well at least she isn't dead."(Leah)
"There they are."(Wolf 1)
"What took you so long."(Wolf 2)
"It's not my fault. For some reason she was farther than usual."(Wolf 1)
"Whatever let's get going."(Wolf 2)
"Ok. Everyone we are going now."(Wolf 1)
"K"
(6 minutes later)
This silence is getting awkward.
"So, what does a reaper do?"(Lyra)
"That one is simple to answer a reaper goes to souls and guides them to the reincarnation area to reincarnate. If we didn't the souls would wander around lost and could end up becoming ghosts. So, there is always at least one reaper with a single or group of souls. I mean look around there are souls and reapers everywhere. Remember this where there is a reaper there is a soul. If you want to know if one is a reaper just look at them if they are transparent, it's a reaper."(Wolf 1)
I listened to what the reaper told us and looked around and questioned why I didn't notice them before. There looked to be thousands of souls and reapers. But for some reason the reapers all looked to be different races some Human others Demi-Human there was some that look like angels and demons then there of course were beasts like wolves, lions, birds, snakes, and pretty much every other living creature there is. Then I heard one of our escort reapers yelling.
"What?! What do you mean the reincarnation cycle has stopped?!"(Wolf 1)
"Sorry, but that's all I know. If you don't believe me, you check yourself."(?)
"Fine that's what I'll do!"(Wolf 1)
"Whatever. It's not like I didn't tell you."(?)
"What was that about?"(Caesar)
"That reaper back there just said that the reincarnation cycle has stopped."(Wolf 1)
"Is that bad?"(Carey)
" "Is that bad?" she asks. Yes, it's fucking bad! First is the fact that the souls will start to get backed up causing delayed reincarnations. Next, would be that this means a lot more work for all who work here. Then, there is why it happened. There is only two ways for it to happen. The first is when 1 of 2 being force stops it which is more serious than the second one which isn't too bad as it's just natural degradation of the area which isn't too hard to fix. Now if it was a forced stop that's bad as that means something serious enough has happened that one of them had to force stop it. And let me tell you they hate when that happens, because it takes both of them to get it back on track."(Wolf 1)
"When was the last time something like this happened?"(Lucas)
"Much to everyone's annoyance 6 months ago. It was caused by the third most hated person in all of Kagor. As a matter of fact, the reason it happened was actually the reincarnation of your youngest."(Wolf 2)
"First what do you mean all of Kagor? Second, who is the third most hated person? And lastly what do you mean it has to do with our youngest's reincarnation?"(Leah)
"Well, Kagor is. Hmm, you know how there are different realms?"(Wolf 1)
"Yes?"(Leah)
"Well, that makes this easier. Kagor is the highest realm. It also the realm we are in."(Wolf 1)
"Huh? I thought Cinith was the highest realm, and didn't you say we are in the Death something Dimension?"(Leah)
"First no Cinith is not the highest realm. It's just nobody above a reaper can leave here freely and if they leave, they don't really talk to others and must come back after a day. And people below a certain level can't enter unless they die at which point, they reincarnate and lose all memories. And yes, the place we are in is the Death pocket dimension."(Wolf 1)
"Then how are we in Kagor?"(Lucas)
He then gave us a look as if to say that was the dumbest thing he has ever heard.
"We are in a pocket dimension. Meaning this is not a true dimension or better known as realms. So, in turn this place is in a realm and that realm is Kagor. Now for your second question I can't answer that."(Wolf 1)
"Why not?"(Carey)
"To put it simply if either of us did that we would likely end up being destroyed."(Wolf 2)
"What about my last question?"(Leah)
"Ah, tha- sorry we are being called we'll be right back."(Wolf 1)
What was that about? Well, let's see where they are going. Hm? It looks like they are headed towards a human. Why isn't he with a reaper? Maybe they were told to find that person? But why is his hair blue? If it was red sure but blue that is not a normal hair color for humans. Maybe a half-elf but still that is too deep a blue even for a normal elf. and that person isn't a full elf if any at all. And his irises are like a swirl of red and blue that slowly mix together in his pupils turning them purple. Which is also weird. Whatever let's just ignore them and talk with the others.
"So, how did you end up here Lyra?"(Leah)
She gave me a dead pan face and responded with.
"I stubbed my toe. How the hell do you think I got here mom? I was killed by a human. Though I did kill like four or five of them. How did you die?"(Lyra)
"Was that sarcasm really necessary?"(Leah)
"Yes"(Lyra)
"No hesitation at all. Whatever. I died after everyone else. Though I took out a good 40 or so in the process. Though all of us died to the same person or more like we were finished off by the same person. He was some kid who could attract the hate of all those around and was wearing overly flashy armor."(Leah)
"So, we all died to the same person then. Well at least Rina should be fine."(Lyra)
"Hey Frostfang Clan!"(Wolf 2)
We all looked to see that the two reapers from before are back.
"You guys are being called by The Creator. So, follow us."(Wolf 1)
"Ok"
We then follow them to the human they were just talking to.
"Well, we have to part here. We have more souls to guide especially because of the backup that is accumulating due to the stop of cycle."(Wolf 1)
"See you"(Wolf 2)
"Bye"
(Blaze POV)
"Bye"
Heh, well they seem good souls so far, most souls would be mad at the reapers whenever they came to guide them. They would always try blaming them for their own deaths but in truth they are only there to guide them, so they don't get lost and become ghosts.
"So, what now?"(Carey)
To my surprise the one to speak first is actually the quietest of the 4 kids.
"I don't know. I was just told to find you."(Blaze)
That was a lie I just want to test them.
"Um, aren't we being called by the god of creation?"(Cole)
Well, he's not wrong, but he's not right either. I'm the god of everything.
"Uh, are you talking about the ruler of creation or The Creator?"(Blaze)
"Aren't they the same person?"(Cole)
Oof that hurts. I'm nothing like that obnoxious prick. Good thing I made the skill [Perfect Facade] or I might have showed my emotions at that comment.
"Nope and you know if he heard that he would be offended, right?"(Blaze)
"Which one?"(Cole)
"Both"(Blaze)
That was a lie too. I'm hurt to be thought of as someone with that kind of personality, but I understand the mix up. Now that asshole he would probably try to kill him right then and there.
Granted Agathram would have stopped him as anyone besides me, the reapers, or Agathram touching a soul is a taboo.
And that's why Agathram is my favorite of the rulers. He actually takes his job seriously. That's not to say Nyx and Sarreil don't. But those other three are slackers which makes more work for me. And Agathram is the only one who helps me with it. That's why I help him with his work when the reincarnation cycle gets stopped for any reason.
"So, who wants to see us then?"(Lyra)
"First, let me ask you who do you think is stronger The Creator or the ruler of creation? Once you answer that I'll answer."(Blaze)
"Ok, I can live with that."(Lyra)
While they're not paying attention, I put up a time barrier that speeds up time in here. I mean I am still on a schedule, and I've only got five minutes left so this barrier is convenient. I set to 1 minute outside is 4 hours here.
(1 hour later)
Geez why are they taking so long. This decision should take 20 minutes at most.
"Have any of you choose an answer yet?"(Blaze)
"I did"(Lyra)
"Same"(Cole)
"Me too"(Lucas)
"I also did"(Carey)
"Not yet"(Caesar)
"I also haven't"(Leah)
"Well, I'll hear their answers first so keep thinking."(Blaze)
Now I wonder what they chose.
"Creator"(Lyra)
"Ruler"(Lucas)
"Creator"(Cole
"Creator"(Carey)
"I've decided."(Leah)
"What is your choice?"(Blaze)
"Creator"(Leah)
"Have you decided yet?"(Blaze)
"Yes, Ruler"(Caesar)
"Ok now those who chose ruler stand next to each other on left. And those who chose creator on my right."(Blaze)
And they did. What they didn't know was this little game turned into a punishment game after taking so long so.
*Snap*
*bzzz, Boom*
"Argh"(Lucas)
"Urgh"(Caesar)
"Hey! You said you would tell us who wanted us! You never said you were going to hit us with lightning!"(Lyra)
"I am. And you guys took too long so I turned it into a punishment game. Those who got the answer wrong would get hit with lightning. Simple right."(Blaze)
"You asshole!"(Lyra)
"I wouldn't do that if I were you. And if it makes you feel better here."(Blaze)
*Snap*
"There. Good as new. There isn't even any leftover stinging pain."(Blaze)
I know what I did was petty, but they made me wait for a fucking hour. If they only took 20 minutes, I wouldn't have smote1For those that don't know. Smote is past tense of smite. them. I mean you make me wait a fucking hour only to insult me by calling me weaker than the second weakest of all the rulers in all Kagor.
"Why did you hit them with lightning!?"(Leah)
"Oh, quit your yapping. They get what they deserve. You made me wait a fucking hour to then say I'm weaker than the second weakest ruler in Kagor. Yeah, no. Even I would at least smite you for that. Though if any of the others were to ask that and you answered one of the gods below them you would have probably been erased from existence."(Blaze)
"Wait. Did you just say second weakest then who is weaker?"(Cole)
"Really that's the part you focused on. You know what, I don't care. Yes, second weakest he's only just barely stronger than that overgrown flame chicken of a mooch."(Blaze)
"So, then where are you in the rankings in Kagor?"(Carey)
"The very top."(Blaze)
"Really? Even above the creator?"(Lucas)
*Slap*
At that moment I face palmed so hard everyone in the pocket dimension heard it.
"Haven't heard that in a while. Someone just asked him a very stupid question."(Agathram)
"Are you being serious with that question?"(Blaze)
" I am."(Lucas)
"Haah, you really are an idiot."(Blaze)
"Has anyone figured out my identity? Speak up now."(Blaze)
"..."
"Really no one. I literally just said who I was."(Blaze)
"..."
"Haah, I'm the fucking creator you damn idiots!"(Blaze)
"WHAT!!??"
"Oh, now you're all listening to what I'm saying!"(Blaze)
"Wait wait wait. What do you mean you're The Creator?"(Caesar)
"Exactly that. I'm the creator of this universe. God of everything here.
I mean if I wasn't that lightning would have been stopped by Agathram the ruler of death. As any who does not work with souls and tries to do anything to one is breaking a taboo.
Oh, and be careful with your next questions because if I get asked another very stupid question like what Lucas just asked, I might just smite you. Oh, and before you ask, I know all your names."(Blaze)
"Ok, so what do we call you?"(Lyra)
"I don't really care as long it's not rude, but if you're asking if I have a name the answer is yes and it's Blaze."(Blaze)
"Then, Blaze can I ask about a few things?"(Leah)
"Sure, shoot your shot."(Blaze)
"First, how old are you?"(Leah)
"How old do I look?"(Blaze)
"For a human like 18-20."(Leah)
" Well, you're wrong. I lost count a few million years ago but I know I haven't hit one billion yet. And if any of you say what you're thinking I will smite you. I'll let you know I am considered young for my race."(Blaze)
"Is that why you look young like that?"(Lucas)
"No, just chose to look like this. I can change to anything I feel like."(Blaze)
"Cool!"(Lucas)
"Whatever next question please."(Blaze)
"Why are your eyes like that?"(Leah)
"Pfft. Ahahaha! I like you more and more. You're the second person ever to notice my eyes. You want to work for me?"(Blaze)
"What?"(Leah)
"Do you want to work under me as a subordinate. You would help me to get my work done faster and you get to come back to life as one of the strongest beings in all of the universe."(Blaze)
"First isn't that an abuse of power?"(Leah)
"Yeah, and what about it?"(Blaze)
"And you can just do that because you want to?"(Leah)
"Leah, you seem to be misunderstanding something here.
I created this entire universe. I can do whatever I want here. If I wanted to get rid of or create a new race I can. There is literally no one who can stop me from doing it. I just don't because I don't want to interfere in the world's matters. And if I use even a fraction of too much power the world would explode."(Blaze)
"Ok."(Leah)
"So, you want to come under me?"(Blaze)
"Can I think about it?"(Leah)
"Sure. While you think ask your next question."(Blaze)
"Why did you come find us and did you stop the cycle?"(Leah)
"For the first part that will be talked about later for the latter yes and no. I gave the order for it to be stopped but I didn't stop it that was Agathram. Next question."(Blaze)
"Hey Agathram, you can start the cycle again."(Blaze)
"Got it."(Agathram)
"Who is the third most hated person in Kagor?"(Carey)
"That would be Mithreil the ruler of fate. Then it's a tie between that oversized flame chicken of a mooch Flare and the narcissistic asshole of a ruler of creation Odros for first. They all are slackers which give me and Agathram more work to do. That's also why I asked you about becoming my subordinate. I need someone to help me manage the system since that stupid chicken wouldn't do her damn job."(Blaze)
"Good to know. Last question. What do you know about Rina's current state and her reincarnation?"(Leah)
"Finally! I thought you were never going to ask with how long you were asking other things. So, do you want the blunt answer or the sugar-coated answer?"(Blaze)
"Just be blunt."(Lyra)
"Sure. To be honest I know everything about her reincarnation. She was actually the first to notice my eyes back then.
Now her current state to be blunt, is shit.
First, Leah your kid ended up at the battle between your pack and the invaders. Well to be more accurate she arrived just as it was ending which means she watched you die. And let me tell you.
The poor things past resurfaced as she saw your guys' bodies. She felt a lot of rage at that moment. So much in fact that she is the first to ever acquire a forbidden skill. She then swore to avenge you guys by destroying three countries and make all those who were part of this suffer the same way she did. Before you ask, I'll tell you guys about that later.
She got so lost in thought she got caught and was knocked out. Hell, she almost lost herself to the skill when she woke up and considering her past that is to be expected. But she didn't lose herself due to the pups that were in there. I mean she started playing with them for an hour and forgot all her worries for an hour and then she was about to be turned into a gift to the crush for that prick of a "Hero" so he could try going out with her.
She also almost had another mental break down when they took her out because they put all of your guys' heads on pikes.
They then put a collar of sealing on her sealing almost all her memories including the ones about you guys. Fucking hell, I hate those damn collars. Those damn things shouldn't even exist. There is only one good thing that came from that. It sealed her [Wrath] skill so it can't exert much influence on her. The most it can do is make her more emotional."(Blaze)
"Hold on is she still with them then!?"(Caesar)
"I was about to tell you that there is a little bit of time before the memories get sealed from when a collar is placed on to a living being. And since Rina bought the [Mental attack resistance level 3] skill she got a longer period before here memories were taken and that "Hero" is an idiot, so he just left her on ground and the moment they went to pack up she bolted and ran for 3 hours straight before passing out from exhaustion."(Blaze)
"That's good."(Caesar)
*Boom*
"Interrupt me one more time and I won't miss."(Blaze)
"sorry"(Caesar)
"Good. Now onto the reincarnation part. Hmm I guess I'll start with the fact she originally was never meant to be born."(Blaze)
"WHAT!?"
"First. All of you calm it so I can explain."(Blaze)
"What do you mean by not supposed to be born!?"(Leah)
"As I said first calm down so I can explain."(Blaze)
"Fine. Continue."(Leah)
"Good, now as I was saying she originally not supposed to be born because she was supposed to be a summoned hero. S
he actually had one of the highest hero and saint factors like ever. And to explain what those are. The hero factor is determined by someone's karma in their past lives the more, good they did the higher the hero factor is and the more evil they did the lower it got, and the saint factor is the hardships one has had in their current life.
She was originally supposed to come here to help with the stellar abominations as the strongest fusion job [Saintly Hero] but that bastard Mithreil decided he wanted to not make sure no one died during the summoning and well she died and let me tell you as soon as I became aware I stopped all reincarnation.
Then I left immediately for the D.P.D to find her soul which wasn't all that hard as while the reapers were panicking, they weren't panicking for the reason you would expect. Which would be the stop of the cycle. No, it was because of a single soul.
You see reapers can see a soul's past life and when they saw her past they were panicked and called Agathram to help but even he was at a loss for what to do. You see Rina was 17 when she ended up dying. But the soul that appeared was not that of a 17-year-old human no it was that of 9-year-old child who was scared of everyone and everything.
Agathram tried calling me, but I was already almost there. I was just as shocked as everyone else. I mean I knew that she didn't have a good past from old man Regi and her saint factor, but he didn't tell me it was that bad. I had to set up a time barrier and kick all the reapers out. Then I took a look at her past and let me tell you if I could have, I would have smote a good like 20 people for what they did."(Blaze)
"What was her past like? She never really talked about it."(Lucas)
"I guess it's fine to tell you. And that's to be expected I doubt she even really remembered it herself so that's probably why she never talked about it. And stop interrupting me while I'm talking."(Blaze)
"Sorry."(Lucas)
"Good. First, I'll start with saying that she had one older brother, and that she was both human and a boy and her past family was tall with her father being 6'4, mom 5'10, and brother 5'11. Hold all questions and comments till the end. Now, the story starts on the night of her 9th birthday. Where her life started going downhill.
"Hey, Cris wake up."(?)
"Mmm. Mom? What's wrong?"(Cris)
"Hey, Cris we're going to play a little game."(?)
"What kind of game dad?"(Cris)
"The rules are simple we're going to hide you somewhere and you can't move or make any noise for 30 minutes. You understand Cris?"(?)
"Yes."(Cris)
They then took Rina to the room where they keep all of the toys.
They, then hid her in the toy box that was diagonally across from the door. They buried her in a way so that she could breathe but couldn't be seen, but what they didn't know was that she could see the room because of it.
Do to that she saw her brother hide in the closet and her parents hid in the corner. They sat there for 25 minutes then a man entered with a pistol and looked around the room.
I'm stopping really quick to fill in some parts so that some things make sense. First, a pistol is a small firearm that launches a projectile called a bullet at high speed and has very high piercing power. Next, the reason why they were hiding in a room for 30 minutes.
They were waiting for people called the police. Their jobs are similar to that of a guard in a city or town. Next, how they contacted them. They called the police using a phone which is a long-range communication device, similar to that of the [Telepathy] skill here.
As for how the police arrived there, they used a thing called a car which is a carriage that doesn't use mana or a type of creature to make it move. As for why I'm saying this well when the man entered the room, 2 police cars were about to arrive at the house with 2 police officers in each. Armed with their own guns. Now back to the story. The man then mumbled
"I guess they're not here either."(?)
He then turned around and left the room closing the door behind him. Then
*Bang*
He kicked the door down and said
"Did you really think I didn't notice you?"(?)
He then pointed his gun at them and was about to shoot. When her brother jumped out of the closet to stop him. Unluckily for her brother the man's target became him and then
*Bang*
the man fired the gun hitting the boy in the forehead killing him instantly. The man then turned back to his original targets and then
*Bang Bang*
shot both in the head killing them instantly. Just as the man finished that he got swarmed by the 4 police officers with their guns drawn and one said
"Drop the gun and put your hands in the air."(?)
He complied and did what he was told. Then 2 officers swarmed and restrained his hands and took him outside and put him in a car while the 2 cops left inside checked to see if any of them survived being shot.
They then heard a faint whimpering sound in the room. The sound was very faint and would be easily missed if there was any other source of sound in the room. Then they went looking everywhere in the room but couldn't find where it was coming from.
Then one of them found a lamp in the room and turned it on. Only to notice that they completely missed a corner of the room with a toy box in the corner. When they got closer to the toy box the sound became clearer and they heard the sound of a kid crying.
When they reached the box, they moved some toys out of the way and they found an 8-9-year-old boy in there crying and they realized that the kid was probably hidden in the box by his family and probably saw they were shot.
"Hey kid. Are you ok?"(?)
*Slap*
The officer was then slapped in the back of the head.
"Ow, what was that for?"(?)
"You were to blunt you idiot. Now shut it."(?)
"Sorry about him he's not very good at being gentle with his words but he does mean well. So, what is your name?"(?)
"Cris"(Cris)
"Ok Cris how old are you?"(?)
"I just turned 9."(Cris)
"Then, Cris why are you in this toy box?"(?)
"My family said we were playing a game and I couldn't come out or make a sound until 30 minutes passed."(Cris)
"Then how long have you been in here?"(?)
"I don't know. I think time is up and I can leave. Are my family going to be, okay?"
"Kid, your family's dead."(?)
"They're what?"(Cris)
"I said your family's dead. They're not alive. Kaput. You won't see or talk to them ever again."(?)
"W-w-what? No. No no no. Th-they can't. No please no don't leave me Mom, Dad, Brother you can't leave me alone. Please I'll be good. I'll do anything j-just don't leave me."(Cris)
*Sniff sniff*
"MOM, DAD, BROTHER PLEASE DON'T GO!!!"(Cris)
"You asshole why would you be so fucking blunt with a fucking 9-year-old who just lost their fucking family!?"(?)
*Slam*
The officer than slammed the other onto the wall.
"It's better to just tell him now instead of giving him false hope so he's not even more devastated when he gets the news."(?)
Just then one of the 2 officers that left came back to see what's taking them so long. Only see a crying 9-year-old and the 2 officers fighting.
From there everything became a blur until a few days later at the funeral when the abuse started. Her relatives started arguing who would take care of her. It was eventually decided that her aunt on her father's side would take her in.
Then when they got back to her aunt's place, she thought she would be comforted but she was anything but comforted. After 3 months of constant mental and physical abuse and being told she should have died instead of her family and that it's her fault they died. She was thrown to another relative's place for more of the same.
After a year of it she just completely gave up and didn't care anymore and just went through the motions of life without thinking about anything. Until the age of 14 when her relatives decided to all pitch in to rent an apartment for her and give her money for food. Because at that point no one wanted to take her in anymore, but they were still legally obligated to do so.
During this time, she was shown light novels and such by her only friend that she had since 5. How they met was a cute little story. You see when they were 5, she had just moved into town and transferred into a kindergarten class and well she was shy and avoided talking to others. Then he came up to her and started talking to her and she didn't know what to do so she tried walk away and he just followed and wouldn't stop until the end of the school day. Then he continued the next day. And then the next and just didn't stop and they ended up as friends.
Though for some reason she never told him about her family's death and the abuse. Though if I had to guess why it's probably because she was scared to lose the only friend she has ever had and the only person that actually cared for her.
While she went through life her biggest fear was always being left alone. So instead of saying anything she just hid it from him and to make up for what she didn't have she would go hang out whenever possible while trying not to seem desperate which made people think she was cold and not approachable not to mention she was huge.
So, most didn't try to interact with her and the ones who tried were either turned down or just ignored. Hell, there was like 3 girls that had a crush on her. Though she never knew as whenever they tried to make a move they were always ignored.
I'm pretty sure they also had a bet on who could get her to fall in love with them first and all the girls in their class and even some outside it were in on the bets. And one of the girls that had a crush on her was one of the most popular girls in the grade, so it led to people trying to bully her but like most things it was just ignored, and she wasn't small in any sense of the word.
So, no one would try to get physical which was the smart choice as she didn't look like she had any muscle but, she was a behemoth and could take on anyone in the class.
Then, on her 17th birthday it was one thing after another and then on her way back to her class from using the bathroom as she was about to enter the room. The room just disappeared, and she was just to stunned to notice that the area became unstable and since her classroom was on the second floor she fell down and ended up being crushed to death by rubble. And that's her past you may speak your mind."(Blaze)
"Question. Who was the man?"(Leah)
"That guy was retired veteran who went insane on the battlefield and went on a killing and robbing spree. He was actually a very notorious serial killer in that area and was wanted for the murder and robbery of several other families."(Blaze)
"Was Rina in love with her friend?"(Caesar)
"I had a feeling one of you were going to ask that. The answer is no she did not have any such feelings for her friend. What she felt was familial love nothing sexual or romantically. She was into girls not boys."(Blaze)
"Why where they blaming her for what happened?"(Lyra)
"Honestly there wasn't a reason they just wanted to blame someone and since she survived, they blamed her even though she was the one who lost the most.
And that's why I wanted to smite so many people, because once she died, they acted all sad to the public, but were fucking celebrating her death. When I saw that I nearly started a fucking war against old man Regi by invading his world and destroying all of their souls.
They were celebrating the death of child they broke. The only things that were stopping me from doing so were Rina and Agathram. Mostly Agathram though. As Agathram literally was holding me back from doing it while I was holding her to try and comfort her.
Honestly with all that's happened to her, I was surprised that her soul didn't shatter when it came here and was rather healthy if not anything other than underdeveloped.
After 3 hours in the barrier, we both calmed down. And the first thing she asked was about my eyes and honestly, I couldn't keep my cool and just felt bad for her and everything she had to go through. I would have given her my blessing but that would have killed her as while she was strong for a soul. The blessing of a god of the universe would have been too much for her at that time, she would need to have a level of at least a celestial.
Which is why I plan to bless her when she gets to that level.
So, some details about her reincarnation. Her soul was too strong for most types of body. There were only 4 species that could handle her soul. It had to be one of the 4 mystic races and I could only choose between 3 of them because there was no pregnant Nemean Lions.
So, it was between you, a descendant of that Overgrown Flaming chicken, and the Dark Foxes. And I refuse to give her to that peeping tom of a Flaming chicken.
So, it was between you and the foxes, and she had a high affinity with ice to begin with, so I chose you.
And before you ask why she is a girl when she was a boy before. I don't know. Neither I nor Agathram did anything when it came to her body.
My best guess is that she chose the body. Side note: after her reincarnation I went to old man Regi's place and gave him an earful and demanded those souls. He agreed to give me the souls of the ones who did the abuse but only after they died and only the ones who did the abuse not the descendants. Which I was fine with. I don't care about the ones that didn't do anything wrong."(Blaze)
"Question. Who was the girl you mentioned?"(Carey)
"That popular girl that had a crush on her was ironically the very same girl that the "Hero" was going to give her to as a gift."(Blaze)
"Why do you keep using air quotes whenever you say Hero?"(Cole)
"Because that "Hero" is a narcissistic prick that could go die in a hole somewhere."(Blaze)
"But don't you need him to fight the stellar abominations?"(Cole)
"Not really. But I'll explain more about that later too."(Blaze)
"Hey, Blaze I have a question about Rina's status."(Leah)
"Sure, shoot I'll answer if it's not certain personal information."(Blaze)
"If I remember right Rina told me that she has the [blessing of the ruler of fate] in it there was note in it that said he was the one who reincarnated her. But you're saying her reincarnation was your work so who is it?"(Leah)
Upon hearing that I couldn't help but roll my eyes.
"It was me. Mithreil doesn't even have any sway on the reincarnation cycle. It's only me and Agathram who do. It's just like him to take credit for others' work."(Blaze)
"Who exactly is the one you call an Overgrown Flaming Chicken?"(Caesar)
"Her? She is just a mooch who does nothing but watch her descendants and does nothing else. But if you're asking for an objective answer. She's an ancestor of the True Phoenix clan. And the only mystic beast that lives up here. And she does absolutely nothing at all."(Blaze)
"That's what you're her calling an Overgrown Flaming Chicken!?"(Caesar)
"Yeah, and what about it? I mean you're having a Q and A with The Creator of the Universe your point?"(Blaze)
"You know what you're right."(Caesar)
"Any more questions?"(Blaze)
"Who is this Agathram you keep talking about?"(Lucas)
"That would be me."(Agathram)
"Aah!"
"Hahahahah! Good one Agathram."(Blaze)
"Are you not going to give me any answers about what is going on? And do you know how much work I have to do now!?"(Agathram)
"Oh, calm down you big baby. You know I was going to help you. And you'll get your answers once everyone is together. So, let's go."
*Snap*
(13 minutes earlier. Sarreil POV)
What could that guy be planning?
Haah, I guess it's not my business let's just go get Nyx first.
Now What would he want my brother? Is it to commend him for doing his job? Yeah right, get real. My brother and doing his job don't belong in the same sentence. Unless that sentence is "Mithreil didn't do his job.".
But then why would he be telling me to go get him. Why not call him. Also wasn't he just there like 6 months in the mortal world time.
Wow that's a new record for how fast he stopped doing his job. Also, what could have put him in such a mood. He is the most chill of all the people I have ever known. I mean he didn't even try to kill Odros when he tried to take his spot as the ruler of the universe.
He just kicked him out of his room and locked him out. It was funny to watch Odros try to get serious by transforming into a 9 tailed fox and he was just picked up by the scruff like a cub powerless to do anything and just dropped outside his door.
I still laugh at that. And even recorded the whole thing with the help of Nyx and saved it in an orb Blaze gave us. He then took it for like an hour and then gave it back saying something about making a copy for himself.
Oh, I'm here.
*Knock knock*
"Mmm, go away!"(?)
"Nyx get up. It's already noon."(Sarreil)
"Then it's still too early."(Nyx)
"Nyx, git up and open this door or I'm coming in and I'll drop a bathtub's worth of freezing cold water on you."(Sarreil)
"You wouldn't dare."(Nyx)
"You want to test that out you lazy cat."(Sarreil)
"Fine. I'll get up. Just swear you're not going to drop water on me."(Nyx)
"I swear I won't drop water on you if you get up and open the door."(Sarreil)
*Click*
"Open the door all the way so we can talk face to face."(Sarreil)
"No."(Nyx)
"There is no water here so stop being such a scaredy cat."(Sarreil)
"Who are you calling a scaredy cat!? Dammit."(Nyx)
"Hahaha! Works every time."(Sarreil)
"You know being called a scaredy cat to the feline races is an insult to our race and we hate being called that. How much would you like being referred to as insect munching monkey huh?!"(Nyx)
"Meh, it's a lukewarm insult at best."(Sarreil)
"Geez, just stop calling me a scaredy cat!"(Nyx)
"Fine, fine. I'll stop. I'm sorry, ok."(Sarreil)
"Why are you here."(Nyx)
"To be honest I don't know either I was just told to go get you and my brother. Though for my brother I have a feeling he started slacking again and I was told to go get him. You want help me set an ambush for him?"(Sarreil)
"Do cat's like to set ambushes?"(Nyx)
"I don't know."(Sarreil)
*Slap*
"Yes. The answer is yes."(Nyx)
"Are you ok? That sounded like it hurt."(Sarreil)
"Yeah, it sounded more painful than it was."(Nyx)
"Ok. Then let's go."
(3 minutes later)
"Hey Nyx. How do you sleep so much but always have your work done?"(Sarreil)
"Well simply put my job isn't all that hard. I just have to make sure the timeline doesn't collapse which sounds a lot harder than it is. I mean I can literally do it in my sleep. Granted it took me like a thousand mortal years to do."(Nyx)
"Hey Nyx since you're the ruler of time do you know how time works in this place?"(Sarreil)
"Nope. I tried once and I just got a killer headache and no answers. My advice is just to ask Blaze he would know."
"Ok. Oh, hey look we're almost there. So how do you want to catch him?"(Sarreil)
"Hmm. How about a time dilated space bubble?"(Nyx)
"Sure but, who is going to put it up and how?"(Sarreil)
"Sarreil that job is mine. And I feel like you forgot that my race is great at killing our presence and have a good affinity for the dark and surprise attacks."(Nyx)
"Doesn't your race also have a high affinity for fire and last I checked you didn't have any affinity for fire but a high affinity for ice."(Sarreil)
"Shut up! You know I'm self-conscious about that."(Nyx)
"Nyx, I'm sorry for saying that I know I shouldn't have said that to you."(Sarreil)
"Fine, but you owe me one. Now let's make the barrier."(Nyx)
"Sure. Let's start."(Sarreil)
(Mithreil POV)
Fuck fuck fuck. I am so screwed right now. What am I going to do now? If I just did my stupid job, I wouldn't be in this predicament. How am I going to get out of this.
*Knock Knock*
Fuck he's here.
"H-Hello."(Mithreil)
"Mithreil you good in there?"(Sarreil)
Haah. It was just Sarreil.
"Y-Yeah everything is fine."(Mithreil)
"Whatever. You going to open the door or not."(Sarreil)
"R-Right I'll be there in a second."(Mithreil)
"Are you sure you're, ok?"(Sarreil)
*Click*
"Yeah, I'm fi-"(Mithreil)
(Sarreil POV)
"And that's a wrap. Good work Nyx he didn't even notice you."(Sarreil)
"Of course, he didn't. Who do you think I am? Hmph."(Nyx)
"A cat with an over inflated ego."(Sarreil)
"Hey, that's mean."(Nyx)
""Hahahahaha""
"Ok, but let's be serous for a second. Why was he acting like that? It's weird. He was acting like one of the reapers were about to take his soul to get reincarnated."(Nyx)
"I don't know but, it might have something to do with why Blaze wanted him. Speaking of which we need to hurry, or we'll be late, and I don't want to know what'll happen if we're late."(Sarreil)
"Good point"(Nyx)
(4 minutes later)
"We are just barely on time."(Sarreil)
*Knock Knock*
"Come in."(Blaze)
(Blaze POV)
Look like they came and right on time too. I'm impressed they are usually late for these things.
"You guys are here right on time. Good job."(Blaze)
"Thanks. So, what are we here for Blaze?"(Nyx)
"Blunt as always. First, let Mithreil out of the barrier."(Blaze)
"Sure."(Nyx)
*Snap*
*Pop*
"Oof"(Mithreil)
Now time to restrain him.
*Snap*
I had to use the most painful restrainer just for him.
"Now onto what's next. So, Leah what is your answer?"(Blaze)
"Can I ask what will happen to my family if I accept?"(Leah)
"They'll go back to the cycle either way."(Blaze)
"Then I'll pass."(Leah)
"You do realize who you're talking to right? I could destroy all of your souls right here and now and continue on with my day."(Blaze)
"Yes, but still I'll refuse."(Leah)
"Even if meant the death of your whole family?"(Blaze)
"(Glare) You would have to kill me first before them."(Leah)
"Pfft. Ahahahaha! You really have some balls of mithril to still be standing after all that killing intent was released. I mean everyone else is on their knees and it wasn't even directed at them. That's why I liked you.
You showed no fear in the face of an absolute being. And stood strong even when you could not win. I should also probably congratulate you for being the first ever to get a holy skill and passing the test."(Blaze)
"(Glare) What are you playing at?"(Leah)
"No need to be so on edge I needed to make sure you wouldn't slack off in your job, so I wanted to test your resolve.
If you would have accepted my offer, I would have smote you and knew I couldn't trust you with this job. Because if you just threw away your family because you were offered some power that's not someone, I want under me.
Hell, I expected you would have just come under me just to save your family but no you blow my expectations out of the water and openly threatened me. There is only one other that has tried to fight me but that wasn't to protect someone they care about but to take my spot.
I'll show you the video later."(Blaze)
"Wait you're speaking as if I was staying here and working under you."(Leah)
"You are. You honestly never actually had a choice from the start. But don't worry your family is also going to do the same."(Blaze)
"So, we never truly had a choice from the start."(Leah)
"Nope. You were going to be under me the moment you died. But that actually has a reason. But first."(Blaze)
*Snap*
"Everyone good now?"
"Yes"
"Good now onto the next topic where you guys are going for your jobs. But first let's get you living bodies."
*Snap*
"Anything feel off?"(Blaze)
"No"
"Also, Caesar you might want to check your status."(Blaze)
"What!? Why did my race change!?"(Caesar)
"You're welcome."(Blaze)
"What do you mean your race changed? You don't seem any different."(Leah)
"Leah. I'm a True Fenrir now."(Caesar)
"What!? That's amazing!"(Leah)
"Why did you change dad's race?"(Lyra)
"Two reasons first because I can and second it's more convenient for his new job to be able to go into humanoid form."(Blaze)
"Are you just going to talk to those mutts all day or what?"(Nyx)
"What did you just call us you coward of a cat!?"(Lucas)
"What did you just say you mutt."(Nyx)
"I called you a coward. Always hiding and never fighting up front. You stupid cat."(Lucas)
"You lit-"(Nyx)
*Thump Thump*
"Both of you shut the fuck up. Nyx you are arguing with a child. Grow up and stop antagonizing them."(Blaze)
"I-"(Lucas)
"Shut it. You are no better than a pup when it comes to anything other than fighting and age, so I don't want to hear it."(Blaze)
"Why did you even bring them here."(Nyx)
"Nyx, I don't fucking care about your damn species feud with each other. If you don't like them don't interact with them, but I expect you to be civil when you have to. This goes for you guys too. Understood."(Blaze)
"Yes"
"Good now for introductions then I'll tell you guys your jobs. I'll start. The name's Blaze I'm the god of the universe."(Blaze)
"I'm Leah"
"The names Lucas"
"Caesar"
"I'm Lyra. Nice to meet you all."
"I'm Cole. Hi."
"I'm Carey. How you doing?"
"The names Nyx the ruler of time"
"I'm Agathram ruler of death"
"I'm Sarreil the ruler of dimension"
"I-"
*Thwomp*
"Argh!"(Mithreil)
"Not you. You don't get to talk unless spoken to."(Blaze)
"Blaze! What the hell are you do-"(Sarreil)
*Thump*
"(Glare) Shut the fuck up Sarreil. If you don't, I won't miss again."(Blaze)
"Now onto what you guy's will be doing. Leah you'll be working with me as an admin of the system. Lyra you're going to be working with Agathram and the reapers dealing with the especially troublesome souls as the ruler of emotion. Caesar you'll be taking over that bastard's job as the ruler of fate. Yo-"(Blaze)
"WHAT!? What th-*Shunk*Argh!"(Sarreil)
"(Glare) I just said to shut it or I wouldn't miss and then you interrupt me. You're not that smart, are you?
*Snap*
"One more outburst from you I won't take it out and heal you.
You will understand why when I am done telling them their jobs so sit down and shut up. Am I understood."(Blaze)
"yes"(Sarreil)
"Good. Now as I was saying Cole, Lucas, and Carey. You are just extra help anyone that needs it.
Also stay away from Odros's area. He is a prick who is very racist and would try to kill you if you are by him.
Granted he is pretty weak and just two of you together could kill him. But don't go and kill him unless he tries to kill you. You got it. Because who ever does will take over his work.
Also, Carey, I recommend you learn about how to do Nyx's job and before you ask no Nyx isn't going to be replaced it's just Carey has a high affinity for the time authority. And if she learns it, she could help Nyx with her job giving her more free time."(Blaze)
After I said that her ears perked up.
"After this you're coming with me."(Nyx)
"Ok."(Carey)
And she took the bait hook line and sinker.
"Also, you guys get your own area and 1 day a week off. Lyra and Caesar have the same day off as the other rulers. Leah and the others don't really have one because their jobs don't need one as they are on standby until called and Leah's job is only to make sure the system doesn't get bugs and is running fine everything else is my job."(Blaze)
"Now for why he's here. Do you want to tell them, or do you want me to?"(Blaze)
"..."
"I'll take that as a me.
His first crime neglect of duty by not watching over and stopping the loss of kin for the soul he killed not 6 months prior. What he was doing at that time was ogling girls from his area instead. Which leads to crimes two and three. The first is abuse of power to do disgusting things and the more severe crime of causing the awakening of a forbidden skill which is severe enough for me to kill you right here and now."(Blaze)
"Um, can I ask a question?"(Nyx)
"What is it?"(Blaze)
"First what is a forbidden skill? Second who unlocked the skill? Third how did they unlock the skill? And how old are they?"(Nyx)
"First, that was more than a question. And next to explain what a forbidden skill is, a forbidden skill is similar to a holy skill that Leah got.
The forbidden series and holy series mirror one another and represent the Seven Deadly Sins and Seven Heavenly Virtues.
The first sin skill ever unlocked was [Wrath] the worst of them all. While the first virtue unlocked was [Diligence] and it isn't half bad. As for the rest they are all connected to his first crime.
Since she is a wolf at her currant age of 6 months, she would be the humanoid race equivalent of an 11-12-year-old. She unlocked [Wrath] through extreme hatred for all the countries and people who killed her family in front of her and add the trauma of her past well that makes for terrible situation.
And it was also just when all the trauma was starting to fade making her even more enraged. And remember when I said that I could have killed him for his 3rd crime well I didn't because if I did, she would go after Sarreil instead of him and Sarreil did nothing wrong and she does her job. So, her being killed would suck. That's why he is still alive otherwise I would have just killed him."(Blaze)
"You did what!? Mithreil you fucking idiot! You deserve what you're getting!"(Sarreil)
I knew she would react like this. She is very protective of kids to the point she would throw her brother away for causing sever harm to one.
"Why did you make those skills?"(Agathram)
"Simple, if I didn't the universe wouldn't exist. Because without the seven sins and virtues a universe cannot be made. The closest anyone has gotten to getting a forbidden skill was Odros and that was [Pride] at 70%. But his percentage went down to 54% when I humiliated him and shattered his pride. Now the closest for [Pride] is the "Hero" at 65%. And the closest any got to [Wrath] before Rina was 26%. She also needs to get a holy skill to counter [Wrath] or when she gets her memories she might just lose herself to the skill. "(Blaze)
"Now onto Mithreil's sentence well he's condemned either way, but he still has use, so I'll use him. You are sentenced to teach Caesar your job and you better do it right or I'll make you wish you were dead. All except Nyx and Sarreil are dismissed. I'll send the Frostfangs to their area."(Blaze)
*Snap*
"Now, the reason I kept you 2 here I need you to set a time barrier over me I have to do a complete overhaul on the system."(Blaze)
"What!? Why are you doing that all of a sudden!?"(Sarreil)
"Simple. The damn flame chicken neglected her job for a while and the system got a lot of bugs and it won't stop. No matter how many I get rid of more appear and since there is someone in the mortal realm that has the ability to see the statuses of others and can see the hidden stats of others, I have to keep editing the status, so it looks normal."(Blaze)
"Ok, but why do you need us for this?"(Nyx)
"Because I need to focus on the system, and I can't maintain anything else while I do that. Making the system was not as simple as it sounds."(Blaze)
"Well, it's not like we have much of a choice do we?"(Nyx)
"Nope."(Blaze)
"Fine. Let's get this over with."(Sarreil)
Finally, its done. I have no clue how long we've been in here but, I have finished and can incorporate it into the world.
Looks like both of them decided to sleep while they wait for me.
"Hey guys wake up. I finished and now we are going to add it to the world."(Blaze)
"Huh. You're finally done?"(Nyx)
"Yup, now to add it to the world."(Blaze)

Kagor
"Dammit Mithreil you bastard! It's only been 6 months and you're already not doing your job!"(?)
*BAM*
"Fuck! Agathram stop all reincarnation right now!"(?)
"What did you just-?"(Agathram)
"Do it now! Or do you want your friend to die!?(?)
"Fine"(Agathram)
"Good I'll be there in 2 minutes."(?)
3,2,1 and
"What the fuck are you up to!?"(?)
"And what might you be asking about?"(?)
"Blaze don't play fucking stupid with me. I know you know what I'm talking about!"(?)
"You are right but, I won't answer unless you tell me with your own words."
"You fu-"
*Thump*
I throw a knife right next to my little unannounced guest's throat and leaving a scratch on her neck.
"Mind your damn manners Sarreil. I was being polite earlier but I'm not in a good mood and you burst into my space cussing at me without so much as even knocking on my fucking door. Then start acting like I'm the one who did something wrong. Don't forget your place Sarreil and especially don't forget who you're talking to. While I'm more lenient if you did that to any of the others, they probably would have killed you without a second thought."(Blaze)
"Sorry, I was wrong."(Sarreil)
"Fine whatever. Why are you here?"(Blaze)
"I came because the request to give my blessing."(Sarreil)
"If I'm not mistaken it was a request to give a young True Nemean lion it. What about it? I gave you permission to do it."(Blaze)
"That's just it! You never give permission to anyone outside of that oversized flame chicken or when we fuck someone over during our jobs!"(Sarreil)
"So, you want me to take away the permission?"(Blaze)
"No. I just want to know why you allowed it."(Sarreil)
"I'll tell you under certain conditions."(Blaze)
"And what would that be?"(Sarreil)
"First go get Nyx, Second bring your brother with you I don't care if you have to drag him here. Third, you and Nyx are going to help me with something. If you do that, I'll give you your answer."(Blaze)
"That's it?"(Sarreil)
"What you want more work?"(Blaze)
"Nope. I'll go do it."(Sarreil)
"Well, be back in 15 minutes."(Blaze)
"Ok."(Sarreil)
*Click*
"Well time to go see Agathram."
*Snap*
Death Pocket Dimension
"Hey Agathram."(Blaze)
"Aah! Fucking hell will you stop doing that and enter the normal way!?(Agathram)
"But it's easier this way."(Blaze)
"I don't care! You're going to give me a heart attack doing that!"(Agathram)
"Agathram that's not possible. You have the authority of death. The most that will happen is you getting spooked nothing else."(Blaze)
"I know that dammit. Just let me have my moment."(Agathram)
"Whatever."(Blaze)
Now where are they? Hmm. Ah found them good thing they just got here.
"Hey Blaze, why did you have me stop the reincarnation cycle? Now I'm going to have to do so much work now."(Agathram)
"Hold that thought for a second."(Blaze)
"Wha-"(Agathram)
*Snap*
"And he teleported."(Agathram)
There they are hmm looks like they are being lead all together by two reapers of the wolf form I guess that makes sense. They were True Fenrir. Even reapers show some respect for them.
"Hey wolf reapers come over here."(Blaze)
"You called us Creator."(Wolf 1)
"Yep, bring those Fenrir to me. I'll be taking over their escort."(Blaze)
"What!? No, you can't! This job is beneath you Creator."(Wolf 2)
"Did you just tell me no? Do you wish to be destroyed?"(Blaze)
"I would never! It's just doing this job is beneath you."(Wolf 2)
"I don't care if you think it's beneath me or not, I need those Fenrir for something that is above your job to know. So, follow my orders and bring them to me. And don't tell them that I'm the creator."(Blaze)
""As you wish.""(Wolf 1 and 2)
(Leah POV 8 minutes earlier)
Huh what's going on? Didn't I die?
"Are you Leah Frostfang?"(?)
"Yes? How do you know that and who are you?"(Leah)
When I looked at the place I heard the voice, I saw a transparent wolf.
"Me? I'm a reaper that does not have a name. And I'm here to escort you and your family to the reincarnation area of the death pocket dimension."(Wolf 1)
So, I did die.
"Wait you said family. Who else died?"(Leah)
"I'll tell you on the way to them."(Wolf 1)
"Fine."(Leah)
"Ok. So, others are Caesar, Lyra Frostfang, Lucas Frostfang, Carey Frostfang, and Cole Frostfang."(Wolf 1
"So almost all of them died. What about Rina!? Is Rina, ok?!"(Leah)
"I don't know. I just know that she isn't dead."(Wolf 1)
"Well at least she isn't dead."(Leah)
"There they are."(Wolf 1)
"What took you so long."(Wolf 2)
"It's not my fault. For some reason she was farther than usual."(Wolf 1)
"Whatever let's get going."(Wolf 2)
"Ok. Everyone we are going now."(Wolf 1)
"K"
(6 minutes later)
This silence is getting awkward.
"So, what does a reaper do?"(Lyra)
"That one is simple to answer a reaper goes to souls and guides them to the reincarnation area to reincarnate. If we didn't the souls would wander around lost and could end up becoming ghosts. So, there is always at least one reaper with a single or group of souls. I mean look around there are souls and reapers everywhere. Remember this where there is a reaper there is a soul. If you want to know if one is a reaper just look at them if they are transparent, it's a reaper."(Wolf 1)
I listened to what the reaper told us and looked around and questioned why I didn't notice them before. There looked to be thousands of souls and reapers. But for some reason the reapers all looked to be different races some Human others Demi-Human there was some that look like angels and demons then there of course were beasts like wolves, lions, birds, snakes, and pretty much every other living creature there is. Then I heard one of our escort reapers yelling.
"What?! What do you mean the reincarnation cycle has stopped?!"(Wolf 1)
"Sorry, but that's all I know. If you don't believe me, you check yourself."(?)
"Fine that's what I'll do!"(Wolf 1)
"Whatever. It's not like I didn't tell you."(?)
"What was that about?"(Caesar)
"That reaper back there just said that the reincarnation cycle has stopped."(Wolf 1)
"Is that bad?"(Carey)
" "Is that bad?" she asks. Yes, it's fucking bad! First is the fact that the souls will start to get backed up causing delayed reincarnations. Next, would be that this means a lot more work for all who work here. Then, there is why it happened. There is only two ways for it to happen. The first is when 1 of 2 being force stops it which is more serious than the second one which isn't too bad as it's just natural degradation of the area which isn't too hard to fix. Now if it was a forced stop that's bad as that means something serious enough has happened that one of them had to force stop it. And let me tell you they hate when that happens, because it takes both of them to get it back on track."(Wolf 1)
"When was the last time something like this happened?"(Lucas)
"Much to everyone's annoyance 6 months ago. It was caused by the third most hated person in all of Kagor. As a matter of fact, the reason it happened was actually the reincarnation of your youngest."(Wolf 2)
"First what do you mean all of Kagor? Second, who is the third most hated person? And lastly what do you mean it has to do with our youngest's reincarnation?"(Leah)
"Well, Kagor is. Hmm, you know how there are different realms?"(Wolf 1)
"Yes?"(Leah)
"Well, that makes this easier. Kagor is the highest realm. It also the realm we are in."(Wolf 1)
"Huh? I thought Cinith was the highest realm, and didn't you say we are in the Death something Dimension?"(Leah)
"First no Cinith is not the highest realm. It's just nobody above a reaper can leave here freely and if they leave, they don't really talk to others and must come back after a day. And people below a certain level can't enter unless they die at which point, they reincarnate and lose all memories. And yes, the place we are in is the Death pocket dimension."(Wolf 1)
"Then how are we in Kagor?"(Lucas)
He then gave us a look as if to say that was the dumbest thing he has ever heard.
"We are in a pocket dimension. Meaning this is not a true dimension or better known as realms. So, in turn this place is in a realm and that realm is Kagor. Now for your second question I can't answer that."(Wolf 1)
"Why not?"(Carey)
"To put it simply if either of us did that we would likely end up being destroyed."(Wolf 2)
"What about my last question?"(Leah)
"Ah, tha- sorry we are being called we'll be right back."(Wolf 1)
What was that about? Well, let's see where they are going. Hm? It looks like they are headed towards a human. Why isn't he with a reaper? Maybe they were told to find that person? But why is his hair blue? If it was red sure but blue that is not a normal hair color for humans. Maybe a half-elf but still that is too deep a blue even for a normal elf. and that person isn't a full elf if any at all. And his irises are like a swirl of red and blue that slowly mix together in his pupils turning them purple. Which is also weird. Whatever let's just ignore them and talk with the others.
"So, how did you end up here Lyra?"(Leah)
She gave me a dead pan face and responded with.
"I stubbed my toe. How the hell do you think I got here mom? I was killed by a human. Though I did kill like four or five of them. How did you die?"(Lyra)
"Was that sarcasm really necessary?"(Leah)
"Yes"(Lyra)
"No hesitation at all. Whatever. I died after everyone else. Though I took out a good 40 or so in the process. Though all of us died to the same person or more like we were finished off by the same person. He was some kid who could attract the hate of all those around and was wearing overly flashy armor."(Leah)
"So, we all died to the same person then. Well at least Rina should be fine."(Lyra)
"Hey Frostfang Clan!"(Wolf 2)
We all looked to see that the two reapers from before are back.
"You guys are being called by The Creator. So, follow us."(Wolf 1)
"Ok"
We then follow them to the human they were just talking to.
"Well, we have to part here. We have more souls to guide especially because of the backup that is accumulating due to the stop of cycle."(Wolf 1)
"See you"(Wolf 2)
"Bye"
(Blaze POV)
"Bye"
Heh, well they seem good souls so far, most souls would be mad at the reapers whenever they came to guide them. They would always try blaming them for their own deaths but in truth they are only there to guide them, so they don't get lost and become ghosts.
"So, what now?"(Carey)
To my surprise the one to speak first is actually the quietest of the 4 kids.
"I don't know. I was just told to find you."(Blaze)
That was a lie I just want to test them.
"Um, aren't we being called by the god of creation?"(Cole)
Well, he's not wrong, but he's not right either. I'm the god of everything.
"Uh, are you talking about the ruler of creation or The Creator?"(Blaze)
"Aren't they the same person?"(Cole)
Oof that hurts. I'm nothing like that obnoxious prick. Good thing I made the skill [Perfect Facade] or I might have showed my emotions at that comment.
"Nope and you know if he heard that he would be offended, right?"(Blaze)
"Which one?"(Cole)
"Both"(Blaze)
That was a lie too. I'm hurt to be thought of as someone with that kind of personality, but I understand the mix up. Now that asshole he would probably try to kill him right then and there.
Granted Agathram would have stopped him as anyone besides me, the reapers, or Agathram touching a soul is a taboo.
And that's why Agathram is my favorite of the rulers. He actually takes his job seriously. That's not to say Nyx and Sarreil don't. But those other three are slackers which makes more work for me. And Agathram is the only one who helps me with it. That's why I help him with his work when the reincarnation cycle gets stopped for any reason.
"So, who wants to see us then?"(Lyra)
"First, let me ask you who do you think is stronger The Creator or the ruler of creation? Once you answer that I'll answer."(Blaze)
"Ok, I can live with that."(Lyra)
While they're not paying attention, I put up a time barrier that speeds up time in here. I mean I am still on a schedule, and I've only got five minutes left so this barrier is convenient. I set to 1 minute outside is 4 hours here.
(1 hour later)
Geez why are they taking so long. This decision should take 20 minutes at most.
"Have any of you choose an answer yet?"(Blaze)
"I did"(Lyra)
"Same"(Cole)
"Me too"(Lucas)
"I also did"(Carey)
"Not yet"(Caesar)
"I also haven't"(Leah)
"Well, I'll hear their answers first so keep thinking."(Blaze)
Now I wonder what they chose.
"Creator"(Lyra)
"Ruler"(Lucas)
"Creator"(Cole
"Creator"(Carey)
"I've decided."(Leah)
"What is your choice?"(Blaze)
"Creator"(Leah)
"Have you decided yet?"(Blaze)
"Yes, Ruler"(Caesar)
"Ok now those who chose ruler stand next to each other on left. And those who chose creator on my right."(Blaze)
And they did. What they didn't know was this little game turned into a punishment game after taking so long so.
*Snap*
*bzzz, Boom*
"Argh"(Lucas)
"Urgh"(Caesar)
"Hey! You said you would tell us who wanted us! You never said you were going to hit us with lightning!"(Lyra)
"I am. And you guys took too long so I turned it into a punishment game. Those who got the answer wrong would get hit with lightning. Simple right."(Blaze)
"You asshole!"(Lyra)
"I wouldn't do that if I were you. And if it makes you feel better here."(Blaze)
*Snap*
"There. Good as new. There isn't even any leftover stinging pain."(Blaze)
I know what I did was petty, but they made me wait for a fucking hour. If they only took 20 minutes, I wouldn't have smote1For those that don't know. Smote is past tense of smite. them. I mean you make me wait a fucking hour only to insult me by calling me weaker than the second weakest of all the rulers in all Kagor.
"Why did you hit them with lightning!?"(Leah)
"Oh, quit your yapping. They get what they deserve. You made me wait a fucking hour to then say I'm weaker than the second weakest ruler in Kagor. Yeah, no. Even I would at least smite you for that. Though if any of the others were to ask that and you answered one of the gods below them you would have probably been erased from existence."(Blaze)
"Wait. Did you just say second weakest then who is weaker?"(Cole)
"Really that's the part you focused on. You know what, I don't care. Yes, second weakest he's only just barely stronger than that overgrown flame chicken of a mooch."(Blaze)
"So, then where are you in the rankings in Kagor?"(Carey)
"The very top."(Blaze)
"Really? Even above the creator?"(Lucas)
*Slap*
At that moment I face palmed so hard everyone in the pocket dimension heard it.
"Haven't heard that in a while. Someone just asked him a very stupid question."(Agathram)
"Are you being serious with that question?"(Blaze)
" I am."(Lucas)
"Haah, you really are an idiot."(Blaze)
"Has anyone figured out my identity? Speak up now."(Blaze)
"..."
"Really no one. I literally just said who I was."(Blaze)
"..."
"Haah, I'm the fucking creator you damn idiots!"(Blaze)
"WHAT!!??"
"Oh, now you're all listening to what I'm saying!"(Blaze)
"Wait wait wait. What do you mean you're The Creator?"(Caesar)
"Exactly that. I'm the creator of this universe. God of everything here.
I mean if I wasn't that lightning would have been stopped by Agathram the ruler of death. As any who does not work with souls and tries to do anything to one is breaking a taboo.
Oh, and be careful with your next questions because if I get asked another very stupid question like what Lucas just asked, I might just smite you. Oh, and before you ask, I know all your names."(Blaze)
"Ok, so what do we call you?"(Lyra)
"I don't really care as long it's not rude, but if you're asking if I have a name the answer is yes and it's Blaze."(Blaze)
"Then, Blaze can I ask about a few things?"(Leah)
"Sure, shoot your shot."(Blaze)
"First, how old are you?"(Leah)
"How old do I look?"(Blaze)
"For a human like 18-20."(Leah)
" Well, you're wrong. I lost count a few million years ago but I know I haven't hit one billion yet. And if any of you say what you're thinking I will smite you. I'll let you know I am considered young for my race."(Blaze)
"Is that why you look young like that?"(Lucas)
"No, just chose to look like this. I can change to anything I feel like."(Blaze)
"Cool!"(Lucas)
"Whatever next question please."(Blaze)
"Why are your eyes like that?"(Leah)
"Pfft. Ahahaha! I like you more and more. You're the second person ever to notice my eyes. You want to work for me?"(Blaze)
"What?"(Leah)
"Do you want to work under me as a subordinate. You would help me to get my work done faster and you get to come back to life as one of the strongest beings in all of the universe."(Blaze)
"First isn't that an abuse of power?"(Leah)
"Yeah, and what about it?"(Blaze)
"And you can just do that because you want to?"(Leah)
"Leah, you seem to be misunderstanding something here.
I created this entire universe. I can do whatever I want here. If I wanted to get rid of or create a new race I can. There is literally no one who can stop me from doing it. I just don't because I don't want to interfere in the world's matters. And if I use even a fraction of too much power the world would explode."(Blaze)
"Ok."(Leah)
"So, you want to come under me?"(Blaze)
"Can I think about it?"(Leah)
"Sure. While you think ask your next question."(Blaze)
"Why did you come find us and did you stop the cycle?"(Leah)
"For the first part that will be talked about later for the latter yes and no. I gave the order for it to be stopped but I didn't stop it that was Agathram. Next question."(Blaze)
"Hey Agathram, you can start the cycle again."(Blaze)
"Got it."(Agathram)
"Who is the third most hated person in Kagor?"(Carey)
"That would be Mithreil the ruler of fate. Then it's a tie between that oversized flame chicken of a mooch Flare and the narcissistic asshole of a ruler of creation Odros for first. They all are slackers which give me and Agathram more work to do. That's also why I asked you about becoming my subordinate. I need someone to help me manage the system since that stupid chicken wouldn't do her damn job."(Blaze)
"Good to know. Last question. What do you know about Rina's current state and her reincarnation?"(Leah)
"Finally! I thought you were never going to ask with how long you were asking other things. So, do you want the blunt answer or the sugar-coated answer?"(Blaze)
"Just be blunt."(Lyra)
"Sure. To be honest I know everything about her reincarnation. She was actually the first to notice my eyes back then.
Now her current state to be blunt, is shit.
First, Leah your kid ended up at the battle between your pack and the invaders. Well to be more accurate she arrived just as it was ending which means she watched you die. And let me tell you.
The poor things past resurfaced as she saw your guys' bodies. She felt a lot of rage at that moment. So much in fact that she is the first to ever acquire a forbidden skill. She then swore to avenge you guys by destroying three countries and make all those who were part of this suffer the same way she did. Before you ask, I'll tell you guys about that later.
She got so lost in thought she got caught and was knocked out. Hell, she almost lost herself to the skill when she woke up and considering her past that is to be expected. But she didn't lose herself due to the pups that were in there. I mean she started playing with them for an hour and forgot all her worries for an hour and then she was about to be turned into a gift to the crush for that prick of a "Hero" so he could try going out with her.
She also almost had another mental break down when they took her out because they put all of your guys' heads on pikes.
They then put a collar of sealing on her sealing almost all her memories including the ones about you guys. Fucking hell, I hate those damn collars. Those damn things shouldn't even exist. There is only one good thing that came from that. It sealed her [Wrath] skill so it can't exert much influence on her. The most it can do is make her more emotional."(Blaze)
"Hold on is she still with them then!?"(Caesar)
"I was about to tell you that there is a little bit of time before the memories get sealed from when a collar is placed on to a living being. And since Rina bought the [Mental attack resistance level 3] skill she got a longer period before here memories were taken and that "Hero" is an idiot, so he just left her on ground and the moment they went to pack up she bolted and ran for 3 hours straight before passing out from exhaustion."(Blaze)
"That's good."(Caesar)
*Boom*
"Interrupt me one more time and I won't miss."(Blaze)
"sorry"(Caesar)
"Good. Now onto the reincarnation part. Hmm I guess I'll start with the fact she originally was never meant to be born."(Blaze)
"WHAT!?"
"First. All of you calm it so I can explain."(Blaze)
"What do you mean by not supposed to be born!?"(Leah)
"As I said first calm down so I can explain."(Blaze)
"Fine. Continue."(Leah)
"Good, now as I was saying she originally not supposed to be born because she was supposed to be a summoned hero. S
he actually had one of the highest hero and saint factors like ever. And to explain what those are. The hero factor is determined by someone's karma in their past lives the more, good they did the higher the hero factor is and the more evil they did the lower it got, and the saint factor is the hardships one has had in their current life.
She was originally supposed to come here to help with the stellar abominations as the strongest fusion job [Saintly Hero] but that bastard Mithreil decided he wanted to not make sure no one died during the summoning and well she died and let me tell you as soon as I became aware I stopped all reincarnation.
Then I left immediately for the D.P.D to find her soul which wasn't all that hard as while the reapers were panicking, they weren't panicking for the reason you would expect. Which would be the stop of the cycle. No, it was because of a single soul.
You see reapers can see a soul's past life and when they saw her past they were panicked and called Agathram to help but even he was at a loss for what to do. You see Rina was 17 when she ended up dying. But the soul that appeared was not that of a 17-year-old human no it was that of 9-year-old child who was scared of everyone and everything.
Agathram tried calling me, but I was already almost there. I was just as shocked as everyone else. I mean I knew that she didn't have a good past from old man Regi and her saint factor, but he didn't tell me it was that bad. I had to set up a time barrier and kick all the reapers out. Then I took a look at her past and let me tell you if I could have, I would have smote a good like 20 people for what they did."(Blaze)
"What was her past like? She never really talked about it."(Lucas)
"I guess it's fine to tell you. And that's to be expected I doubt she even really remembered it herself so that's probably why she never talked about it. And stop interrupting me while I'm talking."(Blaze)
"Sorry."(Lucas)
"Good. First, I'll start with saying that she had one older brother, and that she was both human and a boy and her past family was tall with her father being 6'4, mom 5'10, and brother 5'11. Hold all questions and comments till the end. Now, the story starts on the night of her 9th birthday. Where her life started going downhill.
"Hey, Cris wake up."(?)
"Mmm. Mom? What's wrong?"(Cris)
"Hey, Cris we're going to play a little game."(?)
"What kind of game dad?"(Cris)
"The rules are simple we're going to hide you somewhere and you can't move or make any noise for 30 minutes. You understand Cris?"(?)
"Yes."(Cris)
They then took Rina to the room where they keep all of the toys.
They, then hid her in the toy box that was diagonally across from the door. They buried her in a way so that she could breathe but couldn't be seen, but what they didn't know was that she could see the room because of it.
Do to that she saw her brother hide in the closet and her parents hid in the corner. They sat there for 25 minutes then a man entered with a pistol and looked around the room.
I'm stopping really quick to fill in some parts so that some things make sense. First, a pistol is a small firearm that launches a projectile called a bullet at high speed and has very high piercing power. Next, the reason why they were hiding in a room for 30 minutes.
They were waiting for people called the police. Their jobs are similar to that of a guard in a city or town. Next, how they contacted them. They called the police using a phone which is a long-range communication device, similar to that of the [Telepathy] skill here.
As for how the police arrived there, they used a thing called a car which is a carriage that doesn't use mana or a type of creature to make it move. As for why I'm saying this well when the man entered the room, 2 police cars were about to arrive at the house with 2 police officers in each. Armed with their own guns. Now back to the story. The man then mumbled
"I guess they're not here either."(?)
He then turned around and left the room closing the door behind him. Then
*Bang*
He kicked the door down and said
"Did you really think I didn't notice you?"(?)
He then pointed his gun at them and was about to shoot. When her brother jumped out of the closet to stop him. Unluckily for her brother the man's target became him and then
*Bang*
the man fired the gun hitting the boy in the forehead killing him instantly. The man then turned back to his original targets and then
*Bang Bang*
shot both in the head killing them instantly. Just as the man finished that he got swarmed by the 4 police officers with their guns drawn and one said
"Drop the gun and put your hands in the air."(?)
He complied and did what he was told. Then 2 officers swarmed and restrained his hands and took him outside and put him in a car while the 2 cops left inside checked to see if any of them survived being shot.
They then heard a faint whimpering sound in the room. The sound was very faint and would be easily missed if there was any other source of sound in the room. Then they went looking everywhere in the room but couldn't find where it was coming from.
Then one of them found a lamp in the room and turned it on. Only to notice that they completely missed a corner of the room with a toy box in the corner. When they got closer to the toy box the sound became clearer and they heard the sound of a kid crying.
When they reached the box, they moved some toys out of the way and they found an 8-9-year-old boy in there crying and they realized that the kid was probably hidden in the box by his family and probably saw they were shot.
"Hey kid. Are you ok?"(?)
*Slap*
The officer was then slapped in the back of the head.
"Ow, what was that for?"(?)
"You were to blunt you idiot. Now shut it."(?)
"Sorry about him he's not very good at being gentle with his words but he does mean well. So, what is your name?"(?)
"Cris"(Cris)
"Ok Cris how old are you?"(?)
"I just turned 9."(Cris)
"Then, Cris why are you in this toy box?"(?)
"My family said we were playing a game and I couldn't come out or make a sound until 30 minutes passed."(Cris)
"Then how long have you been in here?"(?)
"I don't know. I think time is up and I can leave. Are my family going to be, okay?"
"Kid, your family's dead."(?)
"They're what?"(Cris)
"I said your family's dead. They're not alive. Kaput. You won't see or talk to them ever again."(?)
"W-w-what? No. No no no. Th-they can't. No please no don't leave me Mom, Dad, Brother you can't leave me alone. Please I'll be good. I'll do anything j-just don't leave me."(Cris)
*Sniff sniff*
"MOM, DAD, BROTHER PLEASE DON'T GO!!!"(Cris)
"You asshole why would you be so fucking blunt with a fucking 9-year-old who just lost their fucking family!?"(?)
*Slam*
The officer than slammed the other onto the wall.
"It's better to just tell him now instead of giving him false hope so he's not even more devastated when he gets the news."(?)
Just then one of the 2 officers that left came back to see what's taking them so long. Only see a crying 9-year-old and the 2 officers fighting.
From there everything became a blur until a few days later at the funeral when the abuse started. Her relatives started arguing who would take care of her. It was eventually decided that her aunt on her father's side would take her in.
Then when they got back to her aunt's place, she thought she would be comforted but she was anything but comforted. After 3 months of constant mental and physical abuse and being told she should have died instead of her family and that it's her fault they died. She was thrown to another relative's place for more of the same.
After a year of it she just completely gave up and didn't care anymore and just went through the motions of life without thinking about anything. Until the age of 14 when her relatives decided to all pitch in to rent an apartment for her and give her money for food. Because at that point no one wanted to take her in anymore, but they were still legally obligated to do so.
During this time, she was shown light novels and such by her only friend that she had since 5. How they met was a cute little story. You see when they were 5, she had just moved into town and transferred into a kindergarten class and well she was shy and avoided talking to others. Then he came up to her and started talking to her and she didn't know what to do so she tried walk away and he just followed and wouldn't stop until the end of the school day. Then he continued the next day. And then the next and just didn't stop and they ended up as friends.
Though for some reason she never told him about her family's death and the abuse. Though if I had to guess why it's probably because she was scared to lose the only friend she has ever had and the only person that actually cared for her.
While she went through life her biggest fear was always being left alone. So instead of saying anything she just hid it from him and to make up for what she didn't have she would go hang out whenever possible while trying not to seem desperate which made people think she was cold and not approachable not to mention she was huge.
So, most didn't try to interact with her and the ones who tried were either turned down or just ignored. Hell, there was like 3 girls that had a crush on her. Though she never knew as whenever they tried to make a move they were always ignored.
I'm pretty sure they also had a bet on who could get her to fall in love with them first and all the girls in their class and even some outside it were in on the bets. And one of the girls that had a crush on her was one of the most popular girls in the grade, so it led to people trying to bully her but like most things it was just ignored, and she wasn't small in any sense of the word.
So, no one would try to get physical which was the smart choice as she didn't look like she had any muscle but, she was a behemoth and could take on anyone in the class.
Then, on her 17th birthday it was one thing after another and then on her way back to her class from using the bathroom as she was about to enter the room. The room just disappeared, and she was just to stunned to notice that the area became unstable and since her classroom was on the second floor she fell down and ended up being crushed to death by rubble. And that's her past you may speak your mind."(Blaze)
"Question. Who was the man?"(Leah)
"That guy was retired veteran who went insane on the battlefield and went on a killing and robbing spree. He was actually a very notorious serial killer in that area and was wanted for the murder and robbery of several other families."(Blaze)
"Was Rina in love with her friend?"(Caesar)
"I had a feeling one of you were going to ask that. The answer is no she did not have any such feelings for her friend. What she felt was familial love nothing sexual or romantically. She was into girls not boys."(Blaze)
"Why where they blaming her for what happened?"(Lyra)
"Honestly there wasn't a reason they just wanted to blame someone and since she survived, they blamed her even though she was the one who lost the most.
And that's why I wanted to smite so many people, because once she died, they acted all sad to the public, but were fucking celebrating her death. When I saw that I nearly started a fucking war against old man Regi by invading his world and destroying all of their souls.
They were celebrating the death of child they broke. The only things that were stopping me from doing so were Rina and Agathram. Mostly Agathram though. As Agathram literally was holding me back from doing it while I was holding her to try and comfort her.
Honestly with all that's happened to her, I was surprised that her soul didn't shatter when it came here and was rather healthy if not anything other than underdeveloped.
After 3 hours in the barrier, we both calmed down. And the first thing she asked was about my eyes and honestly, I couldn't keep my cool and just felt bad for her and everything she had to go through. I would have given her my blessing but that would have killed her as while she was strong for a soul. The blessing of a god of the universe would have been too much for her at that time, she would need to have a level of at least a celestial.
Which is why I plan to bless her when she gets to that level.
So, some details about her reincarnation. Her soul was too strong for most types of body. There were only 4 species that could handle her soul. It had to be one of the 4 mystic races and I could only choose between 3 of them because there was no pregnant Nemean Lions.
So, it was between you, a descendant of that Overgrown Flaming chicken, and the Dark Foxes. And I refuse to give her to that peeping tom of a Flaming chicken.
So, it was between you and the foxes, and she had a high affinity with ice to begin with, so I chose you.
And before you ask why she is a girl when she was a boy before. I don't know. Neither I nor Agathram did anything when it came to her body.
My best guess is that she chose the body. Side note: after her reincarnation I went to old man Regi's place and gave him an earful and demanded those souls. He agreed to give me the souls of the ones who did the abuse but only after they died and only the ones who did the abuse not the descendants. Which I was fine with. I don't care about the ones that didn't do anything wrong."(Blaze)
"Question. Who was the girl you mentioned?"(Carey)
"That popular girl that had a crush on her was ironically the very same girl that the "Hero" was going to give her to as a gift."(Blaze)
"Why do you keep using air quotes whenever you say Hero?"(Cole)
"Because that "Hero" is a narcissistic prick that could go die in a hole somewhere."(Blaze)
"But don't you need him to fight the stellar abominations?"(Cole)
"Not really. But I'll explain more about that later too."(Blaze)
"Hey, Blaze I have a question about Rina's status."(Leah)
"Sure, shoot I'll answer if it's not certain personal information."(Blaze)
"If I remember right Rina told me that she has the [blessing of the ruler of fate] in it there was note in it that said he was the one who reincarnated her. But you're saying her reincarnation was your work so who is it?"(Leah)
Upon hearing that I couldn't help but roll my eyes.
"It was me. Mithreil doesn't even have any sway on the reincarnation cycle. It's only me and Agathram who do. It's just like him to take credit for others' work."(Blaze)
"Who exactly is the one you call an Overgrown Flaming Chicken?"(Caesar)
"Her? She is just a mooch who does nothing but watch her descendants and does nothing else. But if you're asking for an objective answer. She's an ancestor of the True Phoenix clan. And the only mystic beast that lives up here. And she does absolutely nothing at all."(Blaze)
"That's what you're her calling an Overgrown Flaming Chicken!?"(Caesar)
"Yeah, and what about it? I mean you're having a Q and A with The Creator of the Universe your point?"(Blaze)
"You know what you're right."(Caesar)
"Any more questions?"(Blaze)
"Who is this Agathram you keep talking about?"(Lucas)
"That would be me."(Agathram)
"Aah!"
"Hahahahah! Good one Agathram."(Blaze)
"Are you not going to give me any answers about what is going on? And do you know how much work I have to do now!?"(Agathram)
"Oh, calm down you big baby. You know I was going to help you. And you'll get your answers once everyone is together. So, let's go."
*Snap*
(13 minutes earlier. Sarreil POV)
What could that guy be planning?
Haah, I guess it's not my business let's just go get Nyx first.
Now What would he want my brother? Is it to commend him for doing his job? Yeah right, get real. My brother and doing his job don't belong in the same sentence. Unless that sentence is "Mithreil didn't do his job.".
But then why would he be telling me to go get him. Why not call him. Also wasn't he just there like 6 months in the mortal world time.
Wow that's a new record for how fast he stopped doing his job. Also, what could have put him in such a mood. He is the most chill of all the people I have ever known. I mean he didn't even try to kill Odros when he tried to take his spot as the ruler of the universe.
He just kicked him out of his room and locked him out. It was funny to watch Odros try to get serious by transforming into a 9 tailed fox and he was just picked up by the scruff like a cub powerless to do anything and just dropped outside his door.
I still laugh at that. And even recorded the whole thing with the help of Nyx and saved it in an orb Blaze gave us. He then took it for like an hour and then gave it back saying something about making a copy for himself.
Oh, I'm here.
*Knock knock*
"Mmm, go away!"(?)
"Nyx get up. It's already noon."(Sarreil)
"Then it's still too early."(Nyx)
"Nyx, git up and open this door or I'm coming in and I'll drop a bathtub's worth of freezing cold water on you."(Sarreil)
"You wouldn't dare."(Nyx)
"You want to test that out you lazy cat."(Sarreil)
"Fine. I'll get up. Just swear you're not going to drop water on me."(Nyx)
"I swear I won't drop water on you if you get up and open the door."(Sarreil)
*Click*
"Open the door all the way so we can talk face to face."(Sarreil)
"No."(Nyx)
"There is no water here so stop being such a scaredy cat."(Sarreil)
"Who are you calling a scaredy cat!? Dammit."(Nyx)
"Hahaha! Works every time."(Sarreil)
"You know being called a scaredy cat to the feline races is an insult to our race and we hate being called that. How much would you like being referred to as insect munching monkey huh?!"(Nyx)
"Meh, it's a lukewarm insult at best."(Sarreil)
"Geez, just stop calling me a scaredy cat!"(Nyx)
"Fine, fine. I'll stop. I'm sorry, ok."(Sarreil)
"Why are you here."(Nyx)
"To be honest I don't know either I was just told to go get you and my brother. Though for my brother I have a feeling he started slacking again and I was told to go get him. You want help me set an ambush for him?"(Sarreil)
"Do cat's like to set ambushes?"(Nyx)
"I don't know."(Sarreil)
*Slap*
"Yes. The answer is yes."(Nyx)
"Are you ok? That sounded like it hurt."(Sarreil)
"Yeah, it sounded more painful than it was."(Nyx)
"Ok. Then let's go."
(3 minutes later)
"Hey Nyx. How do you sleep so much but always have your work done?"(Sarreil)
"Well simply put my job isn't all that hard. I just have to make sure the timeline doesn't collapse which sounds a lot harder than it is. I mean I can literally do it in my sleep. Granted it took me like a thousand mortal years to do."(Nyx)
"Hey Nyx since you're the ruler of time do you know how time works in this place?"(Sarreil)
"Nope. I tried once and I just got a killer headache and no answers. My advice is just to ask Blaze he would know."
"Ok. Oh, hey look we're almost there. So how do you want to catch him?"(Sarreil)
"Hmm. How about a time dilated space bubble?"(Nyx)
"Sure but, who is going to put it up and how?"(Sarreil)
"Sarreil that job is mine. And I feel like you forgot that my race is great at killing our presence and have a good affinity for the dark and surprise attacks."(Nyx)
"Doesn't your race also have a high affinity for fire and last I checked you didn't have any affinity for fire but a high affinity for ice."(Sarreil)
"Shut up! You know I'm self-conscious about that."(Nyx)
"Nyx, I'm sorry for saying that I know I shouldn't have said that to you."(Sarreil)
"Fine, but you owe me one. Now let's make the barrier."(Nyx)
"Sure. Let's start."(Sarreil)
(Mithreil POV)
Fuck fuck fuck. I am so screwed right now. What am I going to do now? If I just did my stupid job, I wouldn't be in this predicament. How am I going to get out of this.
*Knock Knock*
Fuck he's here.
"H-Hello."(Mithreil)
"Mithreil you good in there?"(Sarreil)
Haah. It was just Sarreil.
"Y-Yeah everything is fine."(Mithreil)
"Whatever. You going to open the door or not."(Sarreil)
"R-Right I'll be there in a second."(Mithreil)
"Are you sure you're, ok?"(Sarreil)
*Click*
"Yeah, I'm fi-"(Mithreil)
(Sarreil POV)
"And that's a wrap. Good work Nyx he didn't even notice you."(Sarreil)
"Of course, he didn't. Who do you think I am? Hmph."(Nyx)
"A cat with an over inflated ego."(Sarreil)
"Hey, that's mean."(Nyx)
""Hahahahaha""
"Ok, but let's be serous for a second. Why was he acting like that? It's weird. He was acting like one of the reapers were about to take his soul to get reincarnated."(Nyx)
"I don't know but, it might have something to do with why Blaze wanted him. Speaking of which we need to hurry, or we'll be late, and I don't want to know what'll happen if we're late."(Sarreil)
"Good point"(Nyx)
(4 minutes later)
"We are just barely on time."(Sarreil)
*Knock Knock*
"Come in."(Blaze)
(Blaze POV)
Look like they came and right on time too. I'm impressed they are usually late for these things.
"You guys are here right on time. Good job."(Blaze)
"Thanks. So, what are we here for Blaze?"(Nyx)
"Blunt as always. First, let Mithreil out of the barrier."(Blaze)
"Sure."(Nyx)
*Snap*
*Pop*
"Oof"(Mithreil)
Now time to restrain him.
*Snap*
I had to use the most painful restrainer just for him.
"Now onto what's next. So, Leah what is your answer?"(Blaze)
"Can I ask what will happen to my family if I accept?"(Leah)
"They'll go back to the cycle either way."(Blaze)
"Then I'll pass."(Leah)
"You do realize who you're talking to right? I could destroy all of your souls right here and now and continue on with my day."(Blaze)
"Yes, but still I'll refuse."(Leah)
"Even if meant the death of your whole family?"(Blaze)
"(Glare) You would have to kill me first before them."(Leah)
"Pfft. Ahahahaha! You really have some balls of mithril to still be standing after all that killing intent was released. I mean everyone else is on their knees and it wasn't even directed at them. That's why I liked you.
You showed no fear in the face of an absolute being. And stood strong even when you could not win. I should also probably congratulate you for being the first ever to get a holy skill and passing the test."(Blaze)
"(Glare) What are you playing at?"(Leah)
"No need to be so on edge I needed to make sure you wouldn't slack off in your job, so I wanted to test your resolve.
If you would have accepted my offer, I would have smote you and knew I couldn't trust you with this job. Because if you just threw away your family because you were offered some power that's not someone, I want under me.
Hell, I expected you would have just come under me just to save your family but no you blow my expectations out of the water and openly threatened me. There is only one other that has tried to fight me but that wasn't to protect someone they care about but to take my spot.
I'll show you the video later."(Blaze)
"Wait you're speaking as if I was staying here and working under you."(Leah)
"You are. You honestly never actually had a choice from the start. But don't worry your family is also going to do the same."(Blaze)
"So, we never truly had a choice from the start."(Leah)
"Nope. You were going to be under me the moment you died. But that actually has a reason. But first."(Blaze)
*Snap*
"Everyone good now?"
"Yes"
"Good now onto the next topic where you guys are going for your jobs. But first let's get you living bodies."
*Snap*
"Anything feel off?"(Blaze)
"No"
"Also, Caesar you might want to check your status."(Blaze)
"What!? Why did my race change!?"(Caesar)
"You're welcome."(Blaze)
"What do you mean your race changed? You don't seem any different."(Leah)
"Leah. I'm a True Fenrir now."(Caesar)
"What!? That's amazing!"(Leah)
"Why did you change dad's race?"(Lyra)
"Two reasons first because I can and second it's more convenient for his new job to be able to go into humanoid form."(Blaze)
"Are you just going to talk to those mutts all day or what?"(Nyx)
"What did you just call us you coward of a cat!?"(Lucas)
"What did you just say you mutt."(Nyx)
"I called you a coward. Always hiding and never fighting up front. You stupid cat."(Lucas)
"You lit-"(Nyx)
*Thump Thump*
"Both of you shut the fuck up. Nyx you are arguing with a child. Grow up and stop antagonizing them."(Blaze)
"I-"(Lucas)
"Shut it. You are no better than a pup when it comes to anything other than fighting and age, so I don't want to hear it."(Blaze)
"Why did you even bring them here."(Nyx)
"Nyx, I don't fucking care about your damn species feud with each other. If you don't like them don't interact with them, but I expect you to be civil when you have to. This goes for you guys too. Understood."(Blaze)
"Yes"
"Good now for introductions then I'll tell you guys your jobs. I'll start. The name's Blaze I'm the god of the universe."(Blaze)
"I'm Leah"
"The names Lucas"
"Caesar"
"I'm Lyra. Nice to meet you all."
"I'm Cole. Hi."
"I'm Carey. How you doing?"
"The names Nyx the ruler of time"
"I'm Agathram ruler of death"
"I'm Sarreil the ruler of dimension"
"I-"
*Thwomp*
"Argh!"(Mithreil)
"Not you. You don't get to talk unless spoken to."(Blaze)
"Blaze! What the hell are you do-"(Sarreil)
*Thump*
"(Glare) Shut the fuck up Sarreil. If you don't, I won't miss again."(Blaze)
"Now onto what you guy's will be doing. Leah you'll be working with me as an admin of the system. Lyra you're going to be working with Agathram and the reapers dealing with the especially troublesome souls as the ruler of emotion. Caesar you'll be taking over that bastard's job as the ruler of fate. Yo-"(Blaze)
"WHAT!? What th-*Shunk*Argh!"(Sarreil)
"(Glare) I just said to shut it or I wouldn't miss and then you interrupt me. You're not that smart, are you?
*Snap*
"One more outburst from you I won't take it out and heal you.
You will understand why when I am done telling them their jobs so sit down and shut up. Am I understood."(Blaze)
"yes"(Sarreil)
"Good. Now as I was saying Cole, Lucas, and Carey. You are just extra help anyone that needs it.
Also stay away from Odros's area. He is a prick who is very racist and would try to kill you if you are by him.
Granted he is pretty weak and just two of you together could kill him. But don't go and kill him unless he tries to kill you. You got it. Because who ever does will take over his work.
Also, Carey, I recommend you learn about how to do Nyx's job and before you ask no Nyx isn't going to be replaced it's just Carey has a high affinity for the time authority. And if she learns it, she could help Nyx with her job giving her more free time."(Blaze)
After I said that her ears perked up.
"After this you're coming with me."(Nyx)
"Ok."(Carey)
And she took the bait hook line and sinker.
"Also, you guys get your own area and 1 day a week off. Lyra and Caesar have the same day off as the other rulers. Leah and the others don't really have one because their jobs don't need one as they are on standby until called and Leah's job is only to make sure the system doesn't get bugs and is running fine everything else is my job."(Blaze)
"Now for why he's here. Do you want to tell them, or do you want me to?"(Blaze)
"..."
"I'll take that as a me.
His first crime neglect of duty by not watching over and stopping the loss of kin for the soul he killed not 6 months prior. What he was doing at that time was ogling girls from his area instead. Which leads to crimes two and three. The first is abuse of power to do disgusting things and the more severe crime of causing the awakening of a forbidden skill which is severe enough for me to kill you right here and now."(Blaze)
"Um, can I ask a question?"(Nyx)
"What is it?"(Blaze)
"First what is a forbidden skill? Second who unlocked the skill? Third how did they unlock the skill? And how old are they?"(Nyx)
"First, that was more than a question. And next to explain what a forbidden skill is, a forbidden skill is similar to a holy skill that Leah got.
The forbidden series and holy series mirror one another and represent the Seven Deadly Sins and Seven Heavenly Virtues.
The first sin skill ever unlocked was [Wrath] the worst of them all. While the first virtue unlocked was [Diligence] and it isn't half bad. As for the rest they are all connected to his first crime.
Since she is a wolf at her currant age of 6 months, she would be the humanoid race equivalent of an 11-12-year-old. She unlocked [Wrath] through extreme hatred for all the countries and people who killed her family in front of her and add the trauma of her past well that makes for terrible situation.
And it was also just when all the trauma was starting to fade making her even more enraged. And remember when I said that I could have killed him for his 3rd crime well I didn't because if I did, she would go after Sarreil instead of him and Sarreil did nothing wrong and she does her job. So, her being killed would suck. That's why he is still alive otherwise I would have just killed him."(Blaze)
"You did what!? Mithreil you fucking idiot! You deserve what you're getting!"(Sarreil)
I knew she would react like this. She is very protective of kids to the point she would throw her brother away for causing sever harm to one.
"Why did you make those skills?"(Agathram)
"Simple, if I didn't the universe wouldn't exist. Because without the seven sins and virtues a universe cannot be made. The closest anyone has gotten to getting a forbidden skill was Odros and that was [Pride] at 70%. But his percentage went down to 54% when I humiliated him and shattered his pride. Now the closest for [Pride] is the "Hero" at 65%. And the closest any got to [Wrath] before Rina was 26%. She also needs to get a holy skill to counter [Wrath] or when she gets her memories she might just lose herself to the skill. "(Blaze)
"Now onto Mithreil's sentence well he's condemned either way, but he still has use, so I'll use him. You are sentenced to teach Caesar your job and you better do it right or I'll make you wish you were dead. All except Nyx and Sarreil are dismissed. I'll send the Frostfangs to their area."(Blaze)
*Snap*
"Now, the reason I kept you 2 here I need you to set a time barrier over me I have to do a complete overhaul on the system."(Blaze)
"What!? Why are you doing that all of a sudden!?"(Sarreil)
"Simple. The damn flame chicken neglected her job for a while and the system got a lot of bugs and it won't stop. No matter how many I get rid of more appear and since there is someone in the mortal realm that has the ability to see the statuses of others and can see the hidden stats of others, I have to keep editing the status, so it looks normal."(Blaze)
"Ok, but why do you need us for this?"(Nyx)
"Because I need to focus on the system, and I can't maintain anything else while I do that. Making the system was not as simple as it sounds."(Blaze)
"Well, it's not like we have much of a choice do we?"(Nyx)
"Nope."(Blaze)
"Fine. Let's get this over with."(Sarreil)
Finally, its done. I have no clue how long we've been in here but, I have finished and can incorporate it into the world.
Looks like both of them decided to sleep while they wait for me.
"Hey guys wake up. I finished and now we are going to add it to the world."(Blaze)
"Huh. You're finally done?"(Nyx)
"Yup, now to add it to the world."(Blaze)
