Chapter 4: Chapter 4

~Minoru's pov~

The Next day came and thanks to the previous event Akane started trying to speak to me more throughout the day.

Once the day finished I decided to check out the forest that was near the school at night where there's barely anybody.

I just got to find a boulder that's not far from the streets where cars pass around and that should be the place the original Minoru was banging his head trying to see real magic

Which would also be close to the place where he got ran over.

I found the place after an hour of looking for it and what I found was quite shocking.

Thanks to my upgraded soul my spacial awareness has been heightened, which means my ability to detect things has also increased

So when I arrive it was quite the shock to feel something just floating around the area quite casually.

And when I reached out my hands to touch what I was feeling, nothing impressive happened. Although I couldn't see nothing I just know something was there and I have a feeling it's magic.

And so I sat down and got into a meditative position and tried to move the mana in the air around. They would shake for a little bit but then they would continue to do what they were doing.

Seeing them shaking I knew that I was getting somewhere so I kept trying and trying until morning came

When morning came i was still sitting around trying to move the mana particles but as time went on I started getting much more successful.

It would seem like my strengthen soul really was a blessing in disguise due to how many time it has helped me, like right now, in order to move mana intent is what it uses which is hard to express outward.

I have a theory based on what I know about how the magic in that world works, it's all about intent and how well you manipulate it.

It's easier to control mana when it's inside of you or with something you're in contact with that's why it would dissipate when its outside or farther away from the user.

Since you can't express your intent outward or when it's really far away, it's your intent that keeps it together.

Thats why I say the having a strengthen soul is a blessing, with a strong soul I'm able to extend that intent outwards with a bit of ease making it easy to manipulate mana.

And the more you practice the easier it is to express your intent which is why Epsilon was such a master at mana control due to her constantly expressing her intent to Mana it became easier and easier until she could do with without much effort.

Due to this revelation I continued to practice everyday for a week.

And then it happened....

I got a buzzing type of feeling going inside my head indicating me that it's time and I should when. Words weren't even expressed all of it was just a feeling.

The mana around the area all started to flow to one specific direction in a extremely fast motion, seeing this I new exactly what it meant 'My time has come'

So I started running after it and once I made it to the street a truck was just driving along, seeing the truck all I thought was about the meme's in my previous life 'Truck-kun, take me'. (A/n: that sounded so sexual lol)

~Omni pov~

As the truck was driving along the road a boy soon appeared running infront of it, the driver seeing the boy then honked the horn to warn him.

*HONK* *HONK*

The truck driver then tried to avoid him but it was too late and the boy who is clearly Minoru got sent flying, which also caused the truck driver to crash although he made it out ok with a few injuries, unfortunately the same couldn't be said about Minoru

Minoru was then pronounced dead on impact.

But that wasn't the end of him.

When he gained consciousness all he saw was darkness and felt a wet sensation all around him.

'It seems my mental capabilities are strong enough to stay conscious when I'm inside my new mother's belly being...'

It was a weird feeling for Minoru being conscious during these particular moment, apart from feeling bored he felt himself growing stronger and stronger as the months passed by

'It seems my body is being constructed to being able to hold the power of the Shadow Monarch

I could feel it near my chest, a bundle of energy being formed, I see so my black heart is being formed. Nice' Minoru thought.

And as time passed all of Sung Jin Woo's skills were being implanted onto the very being of Minoru, fully becoming skills that truly belonged to him now.

And with that nine months quickly passed...

All the water that surrounded his baby body suddenly popped and flowed downwards which was quickly followed by tight squeezing signifying the start of his new birth

After a while Minoru saw a white light and was pushed towards which prompted him to close his eyes

When he then open up his eyes he was in the arms of a beautiful black haired woman looking at him with a worry expression

To the side of the woman what greeted him was a shiny bald head also looking at him with worry

The mother then turned to the maid that help deliver the baby and expressed her worry "Aren't babies suppose to cry, why isn't it crying is something wrong with him"

Minoru who is now named Cid understood what was going on and started to fake crying to try and calm his new mother.

*monotone baby crying*

Hearing him cry everyone presents let out a sigh of relief

The woman who helped with the deliver then said "It looks like their's nothing wrong with your baby madam, sometimes it takes a while for babies to let out any sound it's not always immediate. Congratulations once again with your healthy baby boy"

The door to the room slammed open as 2 year old Claire can running with her little legs to her mother side trying to get a better look at her new baby brother.

What everyone failed to notice however was the hundred upon hundreds of eyes just glowing in the shadows

And the shadows all just had one thought

'Our Master and Majesty is born once again'.


Chapter 5: Chapter 5

~Cid's Pov~

Seeing everything was alright after I started fake crying, I decided to sleep to not have to deal with everyone fawning over me which is super annoying when you're a baby.

I then woke up the next day the first thought that occurred to me was incomprehensible noise.  'AURUFJKSK, I'M THE FREAKING SHADOW MONARCH BITCHES'. And once again the only sound that came out of me were happy baby giggles.

For some reason I'm strangely energized, more than I would have been. Since I already experienced what it was like being a baby I know that I'm not supposed to feel this much energy and I can already guess what is the cause. Though I still wanted to get a good look inside myself to see what its like

Then something weird happened, I was able to get a really good look at what my insides looks like, before when I would try this I would just get a vague feeling of what it looks like, now that I get a full picture I can't help but wonder if it's because of all the magic power I currently possess that it was easier and I was able to get a clearer view.

When I looked inside myself I saw something that made me giddy all over again, I have a black heart and I'm not talking about the 'I'm evil' kind, my heart is quite literally black with a bit of purple light around it. Its one thing knowing you have something and it's another thing seeing it with your actual eyes...

Well I didn't see it with my eyes I saw it with my sense but it still counts.

And that's not the only thing i have, I can feel it, hundreds upon hundreds of beings connected to myself. Due to the excitement my baby self just couldn't stop laughing, so much so that my baby face at this point is getting red.

The door to the room then opens and my new mother comes over the crib I was staying at and picks me up and as she's holding me she says with a smile "Well aren't you a happy little fella".

She then tickles my stomach slightly which causes me to start giggling even more due to how sensitive I am at the moment. After that little moment she sits down near by and lowers her blouse and presents her chest to me

'Come to papa' I thought to myself with both tiny arms stretched out.

*suck* *suck* *suck* *suck* *suck*

When I was sucking away I started to feel multiple stares under me. Knowing what it was I started to get embarrassed. 'They just saw their Monarch doing something so embarrassing, ughhh I'm gonna die from embarrassment

And I can't push it down cause I'm still not in full control of my body'

I then just closed my eyes and pretended that those stares weren't there and continued sucking away.

When I finished my new mother just put me down on my crib and left the room. Seeing nothing better to do I just start practicing my new moves which I feel are apart of me now. When I try to use them I mostly used instinct and it comes all natural to me.

The first thing I did was try out Ruler's Authority with the toy's in the crib and when trying it out the toys started to give out a purple outline and started floating slightly, it was unexpectedly easy due to my instincts guiding me on how to do it, and while letting it float about I was perfecting my mana control which will be quite useful.

And so a week passes and I just keep trying to perfect my control over my magic power through my mana circuits which I was able to locate. In order to enhance themselves people would let their magic power flow from their circuits and into the specific body part they wanted to enhance.

That was something I found out after re-checking my body over and over again.

Seeing that a week has passed I thought that it was finally time for me to meet the beings connected to me, and so I waited until everyone was asleep in the night and through the connection I contacted my favorite shadow soldier Jinwoo had...

"Come forth, Beru"

And with that the shadows near the crib started to extend slightly outward and out from under it came a giant bipedal ant

And as the ant who is name Beru came out he suddenly and unexpectedly dropped on all four and started to bawl his eyes out crying

"WAAAAAAHHH MY LIEGE, YOU CALLED ME FIRST, YOU WANTED TO SEE ME FIRST, AND FOR THAT I COULDN'T BE MORE THANKFUL WAAAAHHHH"

I sighed through the connection "Beru, you have to lower your voice or someone going to come and see you and I'd have to return you from where you came from and call out someone quieter"

Hearing this Beru just got quieter and lowered his head but continue to cry tears of joy silently

And through the connection I said "Pick me up". Surprisingly he was very gentle while picking me up which was weird. And as he picked me up he was still crying, if he could cry any harder I think he would.

"Take me to the forest near by" I said through while using the stealth skill I got from jinwoo, which completely eliminated my physical and magical presence. While still holding me Beru escapes from the mansion and takes me into the middle of the forest.

Once there I started to surround my self with Ruler's Authority and start hovering slightly, and while hovering I summoned all my shadow soldier's.

My shadow underneath then extended almost covering the whole forest, thankfully it was night time and no one was around or they would have been very frightened by such display of power.

And once extended, beings started coming out of my shadow like beings from hell. They all then prostrated themselves to me while swearing their allegiance and as they did they then spoke at the same time saying

"WE WELCOME BACK OUR LIEGE AND MASTER BACK TO THE LAND OF THE LIVING MAY HIS REIGN HOLD STRONG"

Seeing this just brought a smile on my tiny baby face and through the link I replied "Thank you, for your encouragement"

I then continued floating while looking at all of the soldiers kneeling down to me.

'Oh this is so going to get in my head and make me become arrogant and I'm all for it, these mongrel's won't know what hit them' I thought while bringing my inner Gilgamesh out at the end.
