11 years later, September 18th
A 16 or 17yr old boy was cooking some food. He was 1.95 metres tall and had long, unruly black hair that reached his waist. He had olive skin that shone in the sun and beautiful amethyst eyes. His sharp jawline could cut glass, he had sword eyebrows that made him look brave and heroic. All in all he was handsome, extremely handsome.
However the clothes he was wearing looked incredibly stupid. It was a white apron with cartoonish-ish drawings of pink animals all over it and to finish off this childish look was a chef's hat with fox ears on the top.
"Alice, are you bloody happy now, I'm wearing the fucking outfit." The boy grumbled.
"Thank you Sami for this great birthday, and I personally think the outfit looks great." Alice chuckled, her bell-like laughter sounded so alluring, like a cold drink in summer heat.
Alice had grown into a heavenly beauty during the years, she had blonde hair with black streaks running through it. Her eyes were a pale blue, like the sky, her plump pink lips lined up with her nose creating some beautiful symmetry. Her skin was quite pale but the rose blush that glowed through, made her look innocent and kind. Her whole body radiated a friendly and bubbly aura, however deep in her bones was a domineering and proudful spirit.
Alice had matured during these 11 years earning her the nickname of Morrigan (Celtic Death Goddess). She dealt with those nobles explosively, destroying anyone in her way and with some help from Sami and the Forte family she consolidated her title of Royal Princess gaining the respect and worship of the Masses.
Some of the remnant supporters of the original Crown Prince are biding there time waiting for him to return and put in to action a stunning counterattack.
Despite her ruthlessness, she is still the same Alice, loving and caring to her friends and that will never change.
Today she is 16 and is spending her birthday with Samael, for her birthday wish she asked him to wear the aforementioned outfit causing the aforementioned scene.
Sami had finished cooking, the finished dish looked like an art piece. The bluish meat was arranged in the shape of a lotus, the glistening liquid fat dripped into the lava like red sauce. The sauce covered some golden rice, the two ingredients seemingly fought with each other as sparks and bubbles were produced. In the golden rice there were brown, pebbled shaped vegetables mixed in and to finish off the dish was a emerald green soft boiled egg.
The 'white' of the egg was a light green and the yoke was a viridian colour, the egg jiggled as Sami brought it over, spreading it's fragrance all over the kitchen.
"I call this dish, Five Element Donburi, the main ingredients are Raging Water Boar, Inferno Chillies, Steel stalk rice, Terra onions and Spring Eagle Eggs" Sami said his voice betraying his pride, as he showed off his creation, "Taste it."
Donburi is a Japanese dish. It consists of meat, fish, vegetables or other ingredients simmered together, it is then placed over rice. The sauce is usually made with soy sauce, mirin and a stock broth called dashi. Obviously the sauce used in this dish is not traditional at all.
"Gladly"
As Alice began to dug in her face experienced a myriad of expressions, the five elements of fire, water, metal, earth and wood restrain and strength each other creating an interesting taste when used together.
At one moment you experience the gentleness of the dish as the flavours work in cooperation and the next moment you feel the raging battle of the five elements as it explodes in your mouth. The coolness of the water, the solid feeling of earth, the destructive aura of fire, the gentleness of wood and the sharpness of metal.
"Delicioussssss" Alice moaned, the smile on her face grew even wider after tasting the food.
She absolutely decimated the plate, not wasting anything, as Sami saw this his face radiated with happiness, as a cook his most precious payment is the relieved smiles of his customers.
After 11 years, Sami had reached the middle of Realm 3 and was able to use all these spiritual ingredients to create a dish that could even help with cultivation. To continue progressing he decided to create his own chef knife and weapon, a weapon that would eventually become his closet companion, growing with him to the peak.
There was a technique in his inheritance that could create a weapon with the same properties as his physique.
"Alice, I'm ready to create my weapon."
Sami walked to his private square with Alice behind him, a solemn atmosphere filled the courtyard as this was one of the most important moments in his life.
This serious atmosphere was broken by mocking laughter as Sami turned around he saw Alice bending over, clutching her stomach as she cackled uncontrollably.
Her bell-like laughter sounded throughout Sami's residence, "Lo... loo...look at what your wearing" Alice struggled to say, "Your serious expression has become useless in that ridiculous outfit, you look like a clown"
Sami looked down at his clothes and realised he was still wearing the stupid Chef's Outfit. He ripped of the apron and hat incinerating both of them with his fire aura.
"Shut up, I'm never wearing any of your stupid outfits again." Samael shouted glaring at his best friend, "Let me make my fucking weapon in peace."
After Alice finally finished laughing Sami took out an assortment of materials and a huge cauldron from his space ring. Some of the most eye catching materials were : Mithril (Binder/Neutral), Void Crystals (Space), Mobius Sand (Time) and Gravitas Iron (Gravity). There were also other materials which corresponding to all other elements, even Eldritch Gems which are from the abyss.
The only element without a corresponding material was Aether however this could barely be replaced by Samael's blood. He would have to find an Aether material later on and feed it to his weapon.
Sami threw them all into the the cauldron and poured in his blood, when his blood contacted the materials an aggressive reaction happened like molten steel hitting water. Samael's blood eventually incorporated all of the materials melting them done forming a blood red concoction. Samael felt a connection with the liquid and plunged his hand into the cauldron.
The pain was immense, it felt like thousands of red hot needles poking into his skin searing his flesh and boiling his blood. However he had to continue, he had to persevere and he did willing the liquid to bend to his thoughts and create the image in his head.
As what felt like years of agonising torture passed a beautiful black bracelet was left in the cauldron. It was sleek and smooth, it seemed to swallow everything and it shone with different colours randomly, each glow representing a different element.
"Is that it, your grand weapon is a bracelet." Alice commented flabbergasted at that anticlimactic conclusion.
"No you idiot, it can obviously change form after all me a handsome gentlemen doesn't want to carry around a huge weapon for everyone to see, it will ruin my beautiful image."
As Sami said this the bracelet turned into a 1.7 metre long great sword, it had a black body and a menacingly sharp edge. It had a glowing orb in the hilt representing a neutron star and swirls of darkness on the sword body which portrayed black holes. The neutron star would also shine different colours when a different aura was used, it was currently shining with a 'neutral' light meaning no element was used.
When the user allows it the blade can absorb beasts and tonics to improve its grade and strength.
Sami stared at his creation stroking it lovingly, "I shall call you Gluttony, let us two devour our way to the peak."

Information of the day - The Abyss
The abyss is a semi-sentient plane of existence that wishes to devour the world, assimilating Verus into itself. It is much bigger than Verus and surrounds it on all sides, the barrier called 'space' protects the inhabitants of the world from its corrupting touch however this protection won't last forever.
The Abyss creates lifeforms from itself, this takes away part of its body (Plane of existence) injuring it, but these lifeforms can re cultivate and work for the abyss. The greatest lifeform created can have great intelligence and talent allowing them to compete with top level Verus Powerhouses.
Almost everybody on Verus is enemies with the Abyss as it is a dangerous place and can't wait to engulf it yet some people still align themselves with it and try help the abyss to destroy the world. This has led to incidents where The Abyss has penetrated the barrier but thankfully this was stopped and the abyss beaten back. These people are called Heretics and are hated by the whole world as everyone hates traitors more than normal enemies.
The Abyss and it's residence use the element of corruption.
If you stare into The Abyss, The Abyss stares back.
