'I will be given the God's Dragon, Elcarix…?!'

It would be wrong to even say that it was rare, it was a tremendous reward for a quest. 

Ian hadn't misread it, yet he once again went through the contents of the rewards. 

And apparently, the reward was the dragon 'Elcarix' itself. Also, it was mentioned as a 'myth rank familiar'.

Holding the Judgment of the Spirit King in his right hand, even without Ian realizing he was fully driven.

'Awesome…!'

Ian checked the difficulty of the quest. 

In the column of difficulty, there was a triple S grade which symbolized the highest degree of difficulty for a quest. 

However, Ian started to get skeptical. 

'Triple S is a bit lacking… such a reward can be understood if the quest was penta S grade.'

But that suspicion was only for a moment. 

A myth rank familiar—that too is a God's Dragon.

'This, this… I don't know if I can make a collection of the God's Dragon.'

Ian looked at Ernesis once again and bowed his head.

"Never. I will never let you down."

Ernesis who was satisfied with his reply smiled,

"It isn't an easy task, but I believe that you'll be able to do it."

At the answer from Ian, the Goddess of Light, Ernesis began to feel much better. 


But the answer was actually much closer to the commitment Ian had for the reward, rather than for Ernesis.

North of the Central Continent. 

The unknown land was blocked by the power of darkness. It was finally been opened by the users. 

The gate had opened the very moment the raid boss was taken down. 

A wide plateau connecting the Northern Malacca and the Central Shikar Desert. 

It wasn't as big as the central continent, but when the new map had opened, users jumped in for it.

Always in the Kailan—a new content had always attracted the attention of many users. 

After the canyon of the North of the Central continent, the white plateau spread out from the Ulphir mountain. 

The name of it was 'Heinz Plateau'. 

All thanks to the map, the recent official community page of Kailan was full of the stories regarding it.

Title: Users who are hunting in the Heinz plateau! Help out the newbie!

Hello. Not long ago I went with a guild party to hunt the magical beasts of the Ulphir mountains. 

I'll just ask a few questions that I'm curious about.

What are the necessities for entering the Heinz plateau? And I'll be pleased to know if there is another area with little lacking specs!

The Undead of the Heinz plateau, is said to be so high that they only drop the heroic rank for warlocks? From what I have heard, the drop for the warlocks has been the highest. 

 If there are a lot of people. Then, how will it be divided…?
 I would like to hear from an actual reviewer.
 Ah! And I'm curious about another thing, how many times per hour the contribution will be accumulated. 

(Syncopation)

For reference, my specs are of level 257 Black magician. I have a two-tier class. 

I would really appreciate it if you could share a recommended map, party composition, and the item settings!

You can refer to the detailed specs from the screenshot given below.


(Screenshot)


PS. I have 10 million gold in deposit, so if you can let me know of the item settings, I will raise my specs while investing in them.

- - - - - 


The biggest feature of the Heinz plateau was that it was mostly made of the Undead.

So the biggest advantage that was derived from it, was the 'contribution' that it gave to the new episode. 

During the episode, there was an accumulation of the contribution when hunting all the Chalian related-Undead.

Until the end of the episode, till the Lich King Chalian is caught, this contribution could be used for an item, as experience points or even for gold—which was why it was a tremendous merit. 

Also, the drop rate for the warlocks-only item was so high that the warlock users were especially tilted to it.

But the ones who could enter the Heinz plateau were just one or two of the warlocks. 

Like the above-mentioned post.


- He he he, Mr, what do you think of the Heinz plateau, some kind of a playground? Would anyone enter with a 257? Hehe.

- Wow, 257 is surely not a level that would be enough to enter the Heinz plateau, but I think I'll be open if you just try out the outer region? If one is around mid 200, then you still have a 30% chance to succeed. 

- Right. If you have more than 15 million Gold, you'll be able to play in the outskirts. 

- You haven't even got a level that starts with the third digit. ( Compulsory )


Immediately after the first episode began, the normal users of the central continent had suffered some damage by the Undead corps descending from the North. 

The high-level of Undead were also being a problem. And the number that came down was a huge problem too. 

But when the users learned about the contribution, and when the information about the Undead began to be released, the situation changed.

High-level users who were hunting across the continent were flocking to the north of the Central continent like a swarm of bees.

The army of darkness which had come down from the north was attacked by the users who were in there for a hunt, and the undead was all taken down.

Moreover, the Northern Part of the Central continent had been opened with the Heinz plateau. It had a rather contrary situation from what the users expected.

The users were the ones who were concerned this time.


- But guys, is this episode too hard or not?

- Huh? Why is it?

- No, what I mean is. Nowadays, the Heinz plateau seems to be exploited in an instant, and if one manages to catch the Lich King who's hiding in there, it's the end of the new episode.

- Yeah. Like you've said, maybe the ranker will be the one to find the Lich King?

- Ah, no way. Will the LB company end the new episode so quickly? Just wait on. Something will surely pop out from somewhere.

- Hmmm, is that so? It maybe because one doesn't know, but the users are underestimating the LB… in fact, the new episode with the Heinz plateau difficulty isn't that low.

- Keu, LB is really pitiful he he he, this content isn't enough to put restlessness, all the real gamers are consuming the content way faster. How can they work if they can't make their employees beat the other companies at this stuff?


In the beginning, the users were worried about the comfort the game was putting them in.

However, it turns out such worries of those users were indeed a little off.

Somewhere deep in the Heinz plateau. 

At the white peaks of mountainous snow, which were still untouched by man;

At the top of the tower, the king of Undead—the Lich King gave out a terrifying presence. 

The appearance of the Lich King, where there was no flesh but just bones on him.

Instead of the pupils that humans have, the eyes of the Lich King had a light in them.

Lich King who was all prepared opened his mouth, 

"The preparations, are they done?"

He asked with a sassy and fear instilling voice.

A voice that had no emotion and a black image appeared in front of him. 

The young man walked towards the Lich King. 

As he walked out of the darkness, the appearance of the young man could be seen slightly. 

With a purple robe and white skin, it was a warlock. 

He opened his mouth while looking at Chalian,

"My great king. All the preparations are done."

Chalian nodded and spoke,

"Nice, we're finally ready. It has taken longer than I anticipated."

"I apologize for that, my king. But the legions of the Undead have been prepared much more perfectly."

Ttak- tak-!

As Chalian smiled, the bones seemed to have intertwined, making a bizarre sound. 

There wasn't any flesh, and there were muscles that couldn't be seen that clearly on the body of Chalian. 

As the muscles of the Lich King moved, the face of the Lich King had turned much more grotesque to look.

Chalian wasn't done yet.

"That's fine. Their resistance is much better than I had imagined. And the biggest reason why too much of my soul has been lost is your fault."

"I'll repent for that, my King of Darkness."

Lich King raised his hand. 

Right next to him, a new warlock had appeared. 

He came forward and quietly kneeled before Chalian. 

"Did you get the 'thing' from the Kades?"

"Yes, I did, King."

The new black magician took out an old parchment from his hand. 

And showed it to Chalian who was in front of him.

"Nice. Perfect. Ha haha…! I, Chalian will now use the power of the God of Darkness. Kyahhhh!"

Chalian raised his hands and picked up the parchment paper. 

In a flash, a blue light shines, making the old parchment disappear quickly. 

But that wasn't the end. 

From the burned parchment paper, black sparks were coming—which were absorbed into the body of Chalian. 

"Kahha, Kyahhh!"

The energy of darkness seemed to be an enormous power. 

Inside the tower, there was nothing except for the wicked smile from Chalian could be heard.

Giving Chalian a few moments, the warlock who had bought the parchment to him decided to speak.

His voice was serious this time. 

"King, there was a word that God of Darkness has said."

Chalian, who was drunk with the power in his body, slowly turned his head and asked,

"What was it?"

"For the time being, helping Chalian will be tough."

Chalian's expression distorted hearing those words. 

"Reason?"

"That even I don't…"

The black warrior was hesitating to answer what he didn't know, at which Chalian had told him.

"I have already received a lot of power, so it isn't much of a sorrow for me…"

The blue light which was still burning had now turned into a purple flame. 

And after a while, Chalian held up his staff. 

"Now, it starts! My sons. We will advance to the continent and kill the arrogant humans and build our Empire of Darkness."

With those words, the dark obsidian at the end of Chalian's staff, began to shine in purple. 

Chalian moved backward. 

The old door on the top of the tower opened, and a white snowy terrace had opened. 

Chalian walked slowly and the energy of the staff had turned much more intense. 

Within a while. 

When Chalian had come into the sight. 

"Kyaaa…!!!"

"Kwahh!"

"Our King! Our father!"

"For the glory of our king Chalian!"

Huge screams and shouts that could rip of any humans' eardrums reverberated through the air. 

In the vast snowy field in front of the magical tower, there was an enormous legion of darkness that no one could count. 

This was the Chalians,  who started to counter-attack. 


 *                      *                       *


On the other hand, when the legions of the darkness were beginning to erupt. 


"It looks like this is the correct coordinates…"

"We found it right, hyung. After the gorge, the Dragon's lair will surely come out."

"Uh, Hoonie. That looks like a dead-end, right?"

The three of them had arrived at the Lugaric mountains.

They were looking for a rare dragon—the Dragon of Darkness 'Lugarix'.


"Oh, there! It is over there!"


As the voice of Hoonie rang, both Ian and Levya's gaze turned the very moment. 

And there it was, the huge entrance to the lair of the dragons, which was boasting with majestic energy.

The world’s largest scale virtual reality game, ‘Kailan’.

A well-known gamer in the virtual reality game community, Ian.

He reset his lv 93 character to obtain a hidden class… but the class he chose was the most useless class in Kailan, the summoner? On top of that, a call from his professor leads to a mental breakdown! To avoid academic probation, he must level up to the same level as his reset character in two months!

In a moonless, starry night.
"Did you like eating that much John? Then you will have tons of friends underground, the worms and insects will share in this passion with you!"
I am hauling some cadavers from the hospital to the graveyard and, as usual, I am cursing at many of the corpses.
 
Many people do not deserve a grave, much less a crypt, these ungrateful, lazy, immoral, fat, and greedy bastards that they were. My only consolation for carrying out this grim work? Cursing their corpses and hoping that they are burning in the pits of hell.
While doing this I thought I see something on the horizon, a faintly glowing, dancing white light. True, it is pitch dark, and I maybe a bit drunk, but I remember his form to be strange, tall, big, strong, like some sort of giant.
 
Then it disappears into the dark night, and I continue my work, while debating in my mind whether they will pay me or just give me good beating?
 
I feel a thrill down my spine, my heart starts racing, the darkness becomes more menacing, but I continue as only a child would be halted in fear of the darkness.
 
As time passed I start turning at every little sound, with my knife raised, ready to strike. After some more time I am just too scared to even check.
I never realized how much fear can take over one's mind.
The chill darkness clings to me pulling at my clothes, lost in the pitch-black void, my eyes had gone insane? Have I gone insane? How have I reached this point? What is this liquid? I have lost control, I've given in, to the terror.
Everything seems to be moving, everything is moving, the shapes morphing: becoming bigger, twisting unnaturally, and deforming in the worst of ways; The forest has become gloomy and nightmarish, to continue is no easy task. With every attempt to advance, my dismay only renews, in bitterness realize I must be not far from death.[1]
I am feeling colder and colder, there was something lurking at the edge of the darkness. It is watching, I could feel it, chasing me, trying to catch me.
 
It creeps forward, and I lunge towards my knife, but come to the horrifying conclusion: that thing is not of God's domain. An enormous long dark cloak, covering who knows what, reaching and clawing ground; and the eyes! Those six damned, glowing white eyes that pierce through the soul and the mind, reaching the depths of my heart. Those damn eyes that bring the light, the light through the darkness, through the void and through my very soul.
 
I find myself in a bed, I must have blacked out, my saviours tell me that they had found me on the riverbank in the swamp, far from where I last remember being, cold and white like death but still, somehow alive.
I now promise myself to change my life, to do something, to use this blessing that the white eyes have given me, to live again: and write this poem :

Light that shines through the darkness
Light that shines through the void
May your light be bless
Eyes that look through the night
Eyes that look through the soul
May you see Twilight
Beast from beyond
Beast without god
May you claim your birthright
And bring End in starlight

A black monolith stands before my eyes, images and letters of all sort are engraved, some normal, other bizarre, many confuse and contort, pictures of beasts and monsters confuse themself in the thin white letters that are all over the monolith, I realize that they are stories, stories on the Eldrich and unknown.

This is not a single story but a collection of short stories inspire by H.P. Lovecraft, E.D. Poe and other writers of strange fiction.

Part 2:
Everyone experiences sun power on a daily basis, but not everyone experiences Son Power. 
God's Word reveals to us that certain steps are necessary in order to experience the full 
power of Jesus Christ. Failure to understand these steps and properly apply them will short 
circuit the Son Power working in our lives. Jesus brings us a new life and a new light!
Step #1: Experiencing Spiritual Birth
All things related to our relationship with God begin with spiritual birth. Jesus tells 
us that one must be "born again" to see the kingdom of God. Each and every person who 
wishes to see and experience the kingdom of God must experience the spiritual birth he 
mentioned to Nicodemus.
"I tell you the truth, unless you are born again, you cannot see the Kingdom
 of God." 
"What do you mean?" exclaimed Nicodemus. "How can an old man go 
back into his mother's womb and be born again?" 
Jesus replied, "I assure you, no one can enter the Kingdom of God 
without being born of water and the Spirit." 
 —John 3:3–5, see full story in vv. 1–18
Those who believe and trust in Jesus Christ, God's Son, experience spiritual birth. 
Have you taken this important first step? Have you accepted Jesus Christ as your personal
Savior and asked him to be the Lord of your life? If so, you are a part of the family of God! 
If not, take time right now to turn to appendix A, "Begin Your Relationship with God." 
John tells us that Jesus came into the world not to condemn it but to save it (see John 3:17). 
Failure to believe and trust in Christ alone for salvation 
results in judgment for "not believing in God's one and only 
Son" (John 3:18). Jesus said, "I say to you, he who hears My 
word and believes in Him who sent Me has everlasting life, 
and shall not come into judgment, but has passed from death 
into life" (John 5:24, NKJV). 
This important first step enables us to have the re-
lationship with God that he desires to have with each one of his children. This step allows 
Jesus to give us access to the Son-powered life.
It is impossible for a lamp to produce light on its own without having a proper rela-
tionship with a source of power. Likewise, a mirror gives light only when it receives light 
from another source. In both of these examples, a right relationship with a power source is 
non-negotiable. If we want to be reflecting the Son and his power in our daily lives, we must 
have a right relationship with the power source, Jesus Christ. That right relationship is only 
achieved by becoming a member of God's family by receiving and trusting in Jesus Christ as 
one's personal Lord and Savior. This is called salvation, saved from one life and given anoth-
er with an alternate power source.
It is critical that we have a proper understanding of what our salvation in the person 
of Jesus Christ really accomplishes. God, the Father, has "qualified you to share in the in-
heritance of the saints in light. He has delivered us from the domain of darkness and trans-
ferred us to the kingdom of his beloved Son, in whom we have redemption, the forgiveness 
of sins" (Colossians 1:12–14, ESV).
Our eternal salvation is a done deal. The Father has qualified us to share in the inher-
itance of the saints. He has delivered us from the domain of darkness. He has transferred 
us to the kingdom of his Son in whom we have the forgiveness of sin. These are all works 
of God, accomplished without our help. I find it interesting to note that each one of these 
verbs is in the past tense. I believe this indicates that because of those actions, we experience 
a paradigm shift. Yes, we are still in this world, but we are now living with a new identity. 
We are under a different law, the law of faith which gives us the law of life in the Spirit of 
Christ Jesus. 
Furthermore, Paul tells us that we are sealed by the Holy Spirit of God.
In Him you also trusted, after you heard the word of truth, the gospel of yoursalvation; in whom also, having believed, you were sealed with the Holy Spirit 
of promise. 
 —Ephesians 1:13, NKJV
We are secure in a new relationship with the King of Kings. Christ himself purged our 
sins. It is a finished work that he has done on our behalf. We are convinced of this when we 
read these words in the book of Hebrews:
The Son radiates God's own glory and expresses the very character of God, and 
he sustains everything by the mighty power of his command. When he had 
cleansed us from our sins, he sat down in the place of honor at the right hand of 
the majestic God in heaven.
 —Hebrews 1:3
The Father and Jesus took care of our sin problem. We trust in Jesus alone for our 
salvation. He daily saves us from the foolishness of trusting in ourselves. In truth, we are 
"signed, sealed, and delivered" for shipment to the kingdom of God. In the same way that 
we trust in Jesus Christ's power on the cross for our salvation, we must trust him for power 
through the Holy Spirit to live each day in the life he has designed for us. 
Step #2: Depending on the Holy Spirit
When we accept the life God has for us through a relationship with Jesus Christ, every-
thing changes. The Holy Spirit begins to work in us to transform our lives. Without this 
work, there is no capacity for living a Son-powered life. The 
Holy Spirit is the game changer. He is the great enabler. It 
is he who generates in us the power to live the life God has 
planned for us. A relationship with Jesus is just the begin-
ning, each one of us needs to be empowered by the Holy 
Spirit as well. 
When Jesus was on earth he told his disciples he needed to physically leave them in 
order for them to receive the Holy Spirit who would help them and teach them. John record-
ed this for us: 
"But when the Father sends the Advocate as my representative—that is, the Holy 
Spirit—he will teach you everything and will remind you of everything I have 
told you." 
 —John 14:26
The Holy Spirit comes to live in the heart of every believer, "And because we are his 
children, God has sent the Spirit of his Son into our hearts, prompting us to call out, 'Abba, 
Father'" (Galatians 4:6). We are made alive by the Holy Spirit, and with him working in our 
lives we have a God-given desire to have a living relationship with the Father.
The Holy Spirit shows us that trusting in self-effort is a dead end. I like to think of 
self-effort as a dependence on my "three amigos." The amigos are "Me, Myself and I." We 
need to say goodbye to those friends and trust completely in Christ to live his life in us on a 
daily basis. Our human nature is totally rooted in self-effort and the fixation of our culture 
is on self-accomplishment. "Look at me, look at all I've done!" 
A relationship with Jesus changes all of that. We realize that God has a plan for our 
lives and he will give us the strength to accomplish his purposes. The Holy Spirit is at work 
in and through us. It is his job to reveal things to us as we grow in our relationship with 
God. We rely on his strength. When that happens, the lights turn on, the engines rev up, 
the Son rises with power in our heart, and we begin to experience a life that is transformed. 
When we use our spiritual eyes, we can see the fingerprints of God all around us.
How does this happen? We have been identified with Christ in his death, burial, and 
resurrection so that we can serve in the new life of the Spirit (see Romans 7:6). We have 
Christ, the power of God living inside of us!
Since we are living by the Spirit, let us follow the Spirit's leading in every part of 
our lives. 
 —Galatians 5:25
Let the Holy Spirit guide your lives. Then you won't be doing what your sinful 
nature craves.
 —Galatians 5:16
And Christ lives within you, so even though your body will die because of sin, 
the Spirit gives you life because you have been made right with God. The Spirit 
of God, who raised Jesus from the dead, lives in you. And just as God raised 
Christ Jesus from the dead, he will give life to your mortal bodies by this same 
Spirit living within you. 
 —Romans 8:10–11
You have no obligation to do what your sinful nature urges you to do. For if you 
live by its dictates, you will die. But if through the power of the Spirit you put 
to death the deeds of your sinful nature, you will live. For all who are led by theSpirit of God are children of God.
 —Romans 8:12–14
Our entire perspective is changed. We now focus on God's desires and the Spirit's 
power to accomplish his desires through us.
Step #3: Embracing Our Spiritual Identity
As believers, we have been transferred permanently into 
the kingdom of God's Son. We now live under a totally 
different law, the law of the Spirit of life in Jesus Christ. We 
are no longer under the law of sin and death as long as we 
walk according to the Spirit and not according to the flesh. 
This is stated clearly in the New Testament when Paul says, 
"There is therefore now no condemnation to those who are in Christ Jesus, who do not walk 
according to the flesh, but according to the Spirit. For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ 
Jesus has made me free from the law of sin and death" (Romans 8:1–2, NKJV). This is a 
totally different paradigm than the system under the Old Testament law.
What we are talking about here is a new world with a different set of rules and laws, a 
world that we experience while in our earthly existence. The law of the spirit of life in Jesus 
Christ now rules in our relationship with God, and not the Old Testament law comprised of 
the law of sin and death. We are still under a law, but a different law powered and sourced 
in the person of Jesus Christ through his Holy Spirit. This is explained to us in the book of 
Romans:
The law of Moses was unable to save us because of the weakness of our sinful 
nature. So God did what the law could not do. He sent his own Son in a body 
like the bodies we sinners have. And in that body God declared an end to sin's 
control over us by giving his Son as a sacrifice for our sins. He did this so that the 
just requirement of the law would be fully satisfied for us, who no longer follow 
our sinful nature but instead follow the Spirit. 
 —Romans 8:3–4
The law of Moses could not save us because our flesh (or self) did not have the power 
to meet its demands. The law's purpose was to show us we needed a Savior. Because Christ 
satisfied the requirements of the law for us by paying the penalty for our sin through his 
sacrifice in our place, we now have a right standing with God as a gift from him.
We are also now identified with Christ in his resurrection. When we accept Christ'swork on the cross, we are raised with him from the dead and our spirit is given new life. The 
law of the Spirit in which we now live enables us to serve God in a new way. We have died to 
the law and have been delivered from it so that we can live in the newness of the Spirit.
This is the point: You died to the power of the law when you died with Christ. 
And now you are united with the one who was raised from the dead. As a result, 
we can produce a harvest of good deeds for God … But now we have been re-
leased from the law, for we died to it and are no longer captive to its power. Now 
we can serve God, not in the old way of obeying the letter of the law, but in the 
new way of living in the Spirit.
 —Romans 7:4, 6
This is a critical point, and one that I personally still struggle with. It is difficult to 
separate works, which are a by-product from the old way of life, and faith, which is the new 
way. And yet, we must always keep in mind that Christ came to free us from the foolishness 
of self, self-works, and self-justification. It is through Jesus Christ that we have been given 
life and immortality.
The Old Testament law represents the impossible, what we need to do to please God 
and come into his good graces. The work of Jesus Christ eliminates all of that. We come to 
God now because of what Christ did for us on the cross. It is totally because of God's grace 
that we no longer need to rely on self. This, to me, represents the difference between dark-
ness and light. It is self-effort versus the power of Christ who works in us. We simply live 
our life in response to God's grace, and that my friends, gives us freedom. 
 And yet, some of us still try living under the Old Testament grid. Self-effort tends to 
plague us, we think we need to earn our way into a relationship with God, or if things are 
moving too slow, we need to step in and help God out. But it is critical that we embrace our 
new identity, and celebrate that we are no longer in bondage to the law. Our lives are now 
established in a new paradigm with new rules. We simply cannot live out the Son-powered 
life if we do not embrace this new spiritual lifestyle. The Son-powered life is a life possessed 
by the Holy Spirit of God, controlled by him, and empowered by him. It is only available 
to us as we trust in him. When we fail to avail ourselves of this life, we become oblivious to 
what God wants to do through us. 
Since we are dead to the law, we have been released from the law and its power to 
keep us captive. We are to no longer trust in self, but trust in Christ to live in us and to em-
power us to live in accordance with his purpose for our lives. 
My old self has been crucified with Christ. It is no longer I who live, but Christlives in me. So I live in this earthly body by trusting in the Son of God, who loved 
me and gave himself for me.
 —Galatians 2:20
When you are directed by the Spirit, you are not under obligation to the law of 
Moses.
 —Galatians 5:18
God is active in the life of the believer who is proactive in his relationship with him. He 
gives life and empowerment to those who choose to present themselves to him for his service. 
"For the light makes everything visible. This is why it is said, 'Awake, O sleeper, rise up from 
the dead, and Christ will give you light'" (Ephesians 5:14).
The life-giving Spirit has freed us from the power of sin so we are not under its con-
trol as we were before Christ brought his life into our heart. Once we meet his conditions of 
waking up and rising from the deadness of the prison of self, Christ will shine on us and the 
light of his countenance will be on us. When Christ shines on us with his favor, things hap-
pen! When the earthly sun shines, plants grow and power is harnessed for prospering the 
earth. When the Son shines on us with his favor, we will grow in our relationship with God 
and we will be in a position to harness his power to bless those around us.

Scripture Meditation
"Giving thanks to the Father, who has qualified you
to share in the inheritance of the saints in light.
He has delivered us from the domain of darkness and transferred us 
to the kingdom of his beloved Son,
in whom we have redemption, the forgiveness of sins."
 (Colossians 1:12–14, ESV)
Prayer
 Heavenly Father, thank you for the gift of your Son and for the power I 
can experience through the work of the Holy Spirit. Help me to understand ina deeper way how you have qualified me to share in your precious promises. 
You have delivered me from the kingdom of darkness and have transferred me 
into the kingdom of your Son. 
 You have enabled me to live a victorious life in this world that is totally 
sourced in the person of Jesus Christ and fully empowered by him. By faith 
I choose to abandon my own efforts at accomplishing anything for you and 
entrust my time, talent, and treasure into the strength of Jesus Christ and the 
Holy Spirit. May this become a reality in my everyday living. Amen.

The organization who opposed Bryce's religion immediately destroyed all traces that might lead to them. As a matter in fact it was the leader of that organization that was the most prepared to destroy the organization in any case of trouble. Now, he had the chance to do so. He also took in mind of the darkness so everything was cleanly wiped. 

...

"Father... it's real?" The Pope's daughter kneeled after saying that. Her eyes amazed by the rays of light shining only on the churches of the religion. She felt something she never felt before about this religion for a long time. She... felt ...proud. She felt extremely proud. 
She prayed thanks for the her God's miracle. 

"Stand up my dear. The Kneeling is now over. We must guide those lambs desperately looking for the light." The Pope said. He knew this would happened. Ordinary people will panic once the world turned dark and the church will be their as their light.

As expected, people came from all directions. Humans, elves, beastmans, even demon kind and other many races that usually wouldn't leave their protected habitats came to the light. 

Inside the various churches, the Pope, Archbishops, Bishops, Priests and worshippers told of their great Twilight God and how all of this is in his prophecy. That he will appear after a year and judge the people of this world. How he requested that their religion be destroyed just shows how he's loved from everyone is equal. 

If a God of a religion is proven to exist then this world will be managed by him and his religion but by destroying his religion he is not only saying that he will not rule over us but also giving us freedom to live in spite of him being there... or at least that's what most people believe to be the case. The Pope didn't say anything more than what Bryce said but people have big imaginations and that helped them make conclusions that is actually a misunderstanding. Of course the Pope, would not correct this beautiful misunderstanding since his God never said anything about it. 

The Pope just seeing  more people... no... beings... convert into worshippers of his God was making him feel that his life's purpose had already been achieved. This enlightenment made him glow with both light, darkness and healing elements. The light shines warmly on other beings, the darkness cleanses them of their surface impurities and the healing elements cured them of their physical and mental problems. It was a special one-time offer that the World itself granted to better convince the beings of this world that his child should be respected. 


...

The next day came and the Pope wake up earlier than anyone. Woke up to the sun rising again. The darkness already faded sometime after the night. He opened the window on his room where the front of the cathedral can be shown. 

He opened it... then instantly closed it back again. Then he remembered.. 'It's okay. It's natural that there are this many.'

He opened the window again but can't help but sweat when he saw again the hundreds of thousands of monsters of various shapes and sizes sleeping comfortably just all around outside of the cathedral as far as the eye could see. He even saw a human and a lamia sleeping next to each other. 

"A miracle of the Twilight God." he said and left it with just that since he didn't really know how that human got even that far to sleep with a lamia who was also surrounded by bigger monsters. How he was not eaten, it is truly a miracle. It was funny to look at actually. 

In midday, the monsters, the humans and other races left peacefully, most of them with intelligence converted like the intelligent monsters. They respect the strong and against this being who can make the world dark and gave the feeling he can end them with a thought, their faith towards him reached an astounding amount. Some even acquired the rights to use Bryce's powers. It showed the absolute faith they had on Bryce.


Most of the beings of this world decided to pay the God who "imprisoned the sun, fire, moon and stars" a visit after a year. For now, everyone returned to their own things but one thing changed. Everyone will need to give respect to the ones who can use their God's authority. Whether it is their enemies or someone they need to kill, giving respect is utmost. 

The Pope said that "Our god will not bother with "our" matters but beings of this world should respect him and have absolute faith towards him if they want to receive his blessings."

Just like that... Another change in the world happened. Now they only need to wait for a year to finally meet this old and powerful being they acknowledged as their Twilight God. 

...

After a year... 

"Yawn~ Is it time already? Can I sleep some more? I couldn't really sleep this deeply since I'm an immortal now so this was really a great nap."

[A year has past host. Everyone is already waiting for you.]

"Yeah, yeah. I'm sure some human crowd isn't that hard to deal with. I saw many videos about Mom and Dad giving speeches. I also know what I'm gonna say. I've memorized it."

With the outfit and appearance in his mind. Bryce requested help from the World. 

His white hair changed to black. His sky-blue eyes changed to jet-black eyes. His scarf turned black. He wouldn't being his staff or hit hat. His robe remained white. 

"Okay,  that's it. Simple, convincing and with the added effects of my robe floating like appearance, everything is done. System, I'm ready to go. Let's get this over quickly."

[May the system asked why a True Immortal like the Host is in a hurry?]

"Oh, didn't I already told you... Well to be exact.. I just want to try being an adventurer. Living the thrill of life. Helping people. Earning money. Making friends. Those cliche stuff. Since I'm immortal I thought that I might live for a really, really, really, REALLY long time, so I decided to live like someone who values their time. I'll just end up like an old bystander immortal if I actually think like I have all the time in the world. That's not fun. Not fun at all.  Although my friends would die... it's okay. Everyone does.. maybe even me but that's part of life. Maybe I can even help my friends die with no regrets. Memories are much more important to me since so can remember all of them so I'm gonna make more happy memories than sad ones!"

"Like a saying back on earth, "Time is Gold." 
So I'll hurry even as an immortal. I wouldn't want my subjects to keep on waiting. That would be rude. Let's GO!"


"STOP!" 

"What the f*ck!? Who's this?!" Bryce was clearly confused of who this person is. His fashion sense doesn't make sense. Different colors was in his clothing... her clothing?  Bryce didn't even know if that's a girl or a boy. 

[I believe some beings of this world call it "The God of Elementals".]

"A real GOD??!!!? Hey system! Why aren't you responding me yet. Did the World just betrayed me now.??!"

[Host, it's because... ]

"PLEASE LET ME SERVE YOU!"

"What?..."

[Host he is your child.] 

"F*CK! Child, my ass! "

Previously:

Parthenia was spread out on the ground with an eye missing, a ripped up left-wing, and one of her horns cut in half.

(Alderam) - Parthenia?

I walk closer to see her and I start to cry...

(Alderam) - Why the hell did you have to do what you did? I didn't deserve your protection and I sure in hell didn't impress you. I am nothing like you guys, for I... I... am not truly a dragon.

...

...

...

...

...

I hear something faint near Parthenia. I go closer and see her left eye open halfway.

(Parthenia) - I already knew, mine young prince...

(end)

______________________________

When I heard those words my heart dropped to my feet. Without thinking at all, I run over to Parthenia and am about to use [Darkness Heal](SS). I then realize that Parthenia isn't a darkness dragon, but a storm dragon. If I used it, it would cause her to suffer.

(Alderam) - God damn it all, even if I am this powerful, I still can't help the one I care about the most! Tears would not stop flowing down my eyes as I felt helpless.

You have earned the title [Compassionate]

Screw off! I don't need any of your bullshit at a time like this!

Why the hell did God bring me over here? Just to mess with me the whole time? Was it because I was hated? Maybe because God hated me just as everyone else did.

(Parthenia) - Young prince, I will be alright, for I am just a little bit injured at the moment.

(Alderam) - You call that being a "little bit" injured? How did you know that I wasn't a dragon and why would you train me and help me all these years if you knew it all this time!

[Communication](C) Has leveled up to [Communication](B)

(Parthenia) - Bitch, I knew from the moment we started training that thou wast human. Thou acts too weirdly when thy was not even a year old. I even told thy the story about how delicious humans can be when cooked after skinning and thou just went outside of the cave and threw up. To answer your other question, I still trained thou because even though thy was human, thou reminded me of my queen.

(Alderam) - I guess that explains it then, but you look to be on the brink of death, will you die?

(Parthenia) - No, I was simply taking a nap after thou barged in and started crying like a baby.

(Alderam) - Oh, my bad, but will you be alright later?

(Parthenia) - Of course, for my name is Parth--(Blood cough) enia, the storm dragon! However, flying and seeing well is not going to return. That human was less scary than your mother by the way.

[A/N - All might blood cough btw]

(Alderam) - To make sure that he isn't a problem in the future, I need to learn how to get even stronger quickly, so that I can kill that bastard!

(Parthenia) - There is only one way that a person can become stronger extremely quickly, but it is very dangerous. Thy should be fine though since thou is op as hell.

I heard something slip out of her mouth, but I couldn't hear it very well.

(Parthenia) - There is a dungeon quite far from here, approximately 200km north past the kingdom. It houses some of the most deadly monsters in existence, so thou should level up fairly quickly.

I need to see how strong Parthenia is so that I can know when I can finally be able to take on Leo.

(Alderam) - Parthenia, can I see your statistics?

(Parthenia) - Sure, I do not see any reason to deny your request.

_____________________________

Wow, her stats are crazy compared to mine. Also, she doesn't even have a weakness to light and she still almost died when fighting him... This guy is extremely dangerous.

Why the hell is one of her titles [World Eater's Bitch]? Was she really that scared of my mother to get a title like this? Wait a second, she has the skill [Human Transformation](S). Does that mean that I can learn how to walk amongst humans again?

(Alderam) - Parthenia, can you teach me how to do a human transformation?

(Parthenia) - I have forgotten about that skill. I am sorry I never told thou but sure. Place thy head on my head to teach thy [Human Transformation].

I place my head on hers and a lot of information passes through my head as I learn how to use the skill.

You have successfully learned how to use [Human Transformation](SS) due to your original affiliation with them.

(Alderam) - I will cherish this gift from you to be able to help the people I care about.

I walk out of the cave and start flying away, but I realize that I am near the village and I think it might be a nice time to try out a human transformation to see what I look like.

I then activate [Human Transformation](SS)...

I start to shrink, I mean shrink, until I got to around 5,1. I look into the puddle of water and see dark brown eyes, long dark ha--. You've got to be kidding me, I'm a god damn trap! (Haku from Naruto)

I guess I will have to roll with it until I can find some way to make me not look like a girl.

Timeskip 2 Hours

I finally arrive at the village I saw in the distance when I first arrived on demon mountain and walk up to the gate. They ready their weapons as I walk up to them.

(Guard 1) - "Excuse me young miss, but you don't seem to be from around here. Do you have any proof of identification?"

Should I act like a girl or not hm... ahh screw it.

(Alderam [Unnamed Girl]) - "Sorry mister, but I was just lost in the demon forest and barely made it out alive. I lost almost everything while trying to get away from those creatures."

(Guard 2) - "It's alright, you need to place your hand on this orb. It will tell us if you are a criminal or not and it will also create a new id for you."

Thank god that I haven't committed any crimes or else it would be useless using this transformation. I place my hand on the orb and it shines green. Ok good, this proves that I am not a criminal and I can change my status because my [Conceal Status] is such a high level. I changed my name to Haku because why the fuck not.

(Guard 2) - "Okay, it seems like you are good, it will be 8 silver to get a printed card and 2 copper to gain access into the village."

[A/N - I'm switching to Haku for the human form and Alderam for Dragon form]

(Haku) - "Thank you very much, sirs."

I toss them a gold coin that I found in Parthenia's lair and see the guards drop their mouths in amazement.

(Guard 1) "Um little lady, w-where d-did y-you get a holy coin!?

Oh man, I seriously screwed up didn't I?

(Haku) - "It's all the money I have on me right now, so if I could get a few coins of change to live for the next few days."

In reality, I had about thirty of those coins because I thought they were normal golden coins. I didn't know they were worth more than a normal gold coin. I guess I should've checked to see the huge cross going through the middle of the coin. That was basically a dead giveaway. Damn, I'm so stupid.

The other guard rushes into his quarters and about thirty seconds later comes back panting with a huge bag of coins and gives it to me.

(Guard 2) - "This is all of the money we could prepare for the time being. It contains 30 gold coins, 55 silver, and 92 copper coins."

Holy crap, was it worth that much money?

(Guard 1) - "You may enter young miss."

I take my leave and enter the village.

Guard 1 POV:

I see a young lady that I am unfamiliar with and question her since she looks unscathed after coming out of the demon forest.

She then says she had no ID and she just tosses us a holy gold coin like it is pocket change to her. I have never seen one and I even thought that they didn't exist in the first place. The only people who are said to own them are nobility. Mainly the king, queen, and nobles all have these coins.

She enters inside of the village because she has not come out as a criminal and has higher than normal statistics for an average human for a girl her age. I talk to (Guard 2)

(Guard 1) - "D-do you think she is a noble from a faraway land?"

(Guard 2) - "She flipped a holy gold coin at us like it was nothing, so it is almost definitely likely that she is a noble of some kind. What do you think would have happened if we attacked her?"

(Guard 1) - "I would hate being hunted by nobility since they have connections all throughout the kingdom."

Haku POV:

Why the hell would a village be guarded to this extent? Well, its probably because it's literally not even 5 km away from the demon forest. What kind of idiot decided the place for this village to be built.

I am just looking around the village for a few days to see if it really has that fantasy vibe that is always in isekai manga's.

Yep, I see an adventurers guild and an inn right next to it. It's kind of hilarious that two of the most stereotypical places in fantasy land are right next to each other.

I would have to guess that the adventurers guild is the place to go so that I can learn some more information before heading out.

"Time to see what I am getting myself into!" I walk into the guild.

Elsewhere...

(Leo) - "So, you are telling me that the filth you call Ellie in that weak party is the only one in the kingdom who has [Heal](S)? I hate to go to such a weak party for this favor, but I will get healed one way or another, even if I have to bend some of the rules to get that." A twisted smile appears on his face as he makes his way back to the Kingdom of Dawn.

(end)

Sora, a guy who was reading up on "That Time I was Reincarnated as a Slime", had not been paying attention when he got struck by a moving truck. 
  
  He was taking his final breaths and he said to himself "wouldn't it be cool if I was in one of those isekai things? I mean, I just got hit by a truck. 
  
  I would love to have some cool powers and be able to live how I wanted to live. I guess dragons are pretty cool and they can do whatever they want, but it would kinda suck to be a slime though". 
  
  After everything went black, he thought it was strange since he could move around, except he was trapped in a circular object. "Why can't I get out? Why do I feel lighter? and why do I have claws as hands!"

As might be expected, no new changes could be seen. The sun shines as magnificently and with its full force down the sky as before. Is there any kind of day cycle here like in my old world? It would be kind of weird if I could never experience the night again from now on. For many people night is seen as something that you would fear, but for me darkness means that you let everything you try to play during the day out. So, you can be another Person. In the darkness, the true figures of living beings are also revealed.
Suddenly, something I haven't seen before appears in my Eyes. A river! It is not far from here. I've heard the noises of it before, but I didn't think it was as close as it really is. The noise was just too quiet to be this near. Again, we return to the large garden. At the well, Pah reaches his hand into the water, but it seems that it does not react to him. He holds his hand in, but there is no chatter or waves. It remains quiet. I ask, "Why doesn't the water react?" He looks at me with a confused face and says, "Is something wrong with the water? I don't know what you mean. There shouldn't be anything wrong with it." Funny. Even when Pah reaches back into the water, nothing stirs at all. Do I imagine this? Certainly not. I've noticed before that Pah didn't tell me the full truth. That must have something to do with his secret. Or is it simply because he is a god and that is simply what happens. No! That would be a far too simple answer to my question.
Nevertheless, he does not let himself be distracted any further and he takes his hand out of the cold water. We move on. Directly in the other direction than we did before as we went to the dome. The garden is now over, and a large wide staircase can be seen. Like the floors and walls, it is made of a white material. We descend them. Now we enter a larger field, which is only covered with meadow. I don't think we can go any further here. On the meadow you have a beautiful view of the river. What hasn't come to my eye before is the massive and huge bridge, which allows a crossing of the river. I guess Pah wanted to show me this structure here. He goes on. Two further paths lead to the left and right side of the large staircase. Both are very narrow in comparison of the great staircase we just walked down. Pah chooses the right path from the estate. Apparently, this is the most direct way to the bridge. As we walk down the path, I am not only spoiled by the buzz of the many insects that pollinate the flowers, but I am accompanied on the sides of the path by a water channel. These, too, have the task of supplying plants in the surrounding area with enough water. This can be seen through the small channels, which lead away from the actual path again and again. We have finally reached the banks of the river. Our path connects with a wide road that seems to have moved along the whole river. On the side, an unlabeled pebble path leads to the mountain region, which characterizes the entire landscape here. We cross the unused route and enter the slightly higher road of the bridge. From a closer look, the bridge is even more astonishing than the whole building complex that I was already able to see over there.  

There is something to be seen at every imaginable place, at every corner and at every notch. It almost seems like a whole collection of pictures. Even if I first want to look at the artworks to find out what they mean, I will also be quickly forwarded by Pah. At the center of the bridge, he finally stops. He leans against one of the railings with both arms.
This is also the only thing here that has no decoration. It seems as if it was built quickly afterwards without considering that it suits the rest. Disappointing... rather sad. This part is also separated by two columns. These, too, seem to represent their own history, but at first glance it seems different to me. All the pictures I was able to see until now have given me some kind if a happy feeling, but it seems that the longer you look at these two columns you realize more and more, that all of this is not what it seems to be. Without even knowing the true meaning, I know that this soul which is portrayed here led a bitter life. Full of grief, loss and deceit.
The stories complement each other with the images of the column. One of them catches my eye. It's a story which represent all my feelings I just had about this whole bridge. First, at the edge of the path, a picture of a little boy can be seen. He's playing a game with his friends and it seems like all of them are having fun. In the background there is also another boy. He doesn't seem to be very enthusiastic and decides to construct something with sand alone. At first you think it would be a normal image of children, where one of them wants to do something else than the rest of the group, but the pictures go on. The children who play together slowly get aware of the boy and finally they decide to go to him. Here the story stops on the ground and the last pictures of the story are at the top of the column. The story continues. It continues with the fact that the boy now also looks up to the group. But his eyes are totally black. Empty. As abandoned. As if you were no longer facing anybody. The group is frightened and breaks the structure he had built with sand. The thing that they destroyed also looks like the garden up there... and below is also the bridge. The boy, who first had that black eyes is so shocked, that the normal eyes are coming back now. At the top of the column is now a statue. This is the deeply sad boy. I turn my gaze to Pah. But he has moved away from his previous point. Without me noticing, he put himself next to me. He seems to look at the boy's story too. "What does this story mean?" I ask. Did I just show too much interest? Even though I feel like I don't care about this story, I still have a certain urge to learn more. Who is this boy who was symbolized here?
Pah returns to the original rest point he had chosen before, where he now looks again at the ever-preceding current of the river. He begins to say: "Everything you can see here, this place called Aza was created by me, the dark god and the fourteen people. But the huge structure up there where we were before was made by a servant here. Except for the dome id you payed attention. The palace up there is called Himalis Garden. The one builder gave it the name.", he directs his head toward Himalis Garden. He hesitates for five seconds. Again, it feels like he's forced to talk to me. His slight muscle movements on the forehead are not hard to overlook. Nevertheless, he continues to speak as before without showing any pain: "You have just seen the story that ended at the pillar. All the pictures here are memories of the one who built this. The bridge has no use because nobody is going to use it, but he constructed it anyways. It was a pure prestige project for him. The builder Arch, when he came to Aza, immediately began the construction of this bridge." So, the builder of this thing is called Arch and every picture represents a memory of him. "Why did he immortalize his memories here? He could just keep it in mind" I say. Attentively, Pah turns his gaze to me and replies: "The servants who exist here are in fact not real living beings. All of them are called Ska. These Ska are a collectively thinking unit, which thus have an enormous work efficiency. The Dark God was responsible for the creation of this Ska. He created these before the fourteen helpers appeared. He thought, however, that it would be far too boring if you hadn't represented individuals here, so he chose the stories of a builder and a chef out of your world. With these memories he created the two Skandi Arch and Rora. However, since the memories were used that the Skandi had an instant personality, these two Skandi were created in such a way that they slowly lose their memories of their old lives. Rora, the chef here in Himalis Garden, is extremely talented when it comes to preparing food, but he is not good at anything in other tasks. Arch, on the other hand, has an enormous talent in too much of everything. Among other things, he has enormous intelligence. That's why you should always be careful with your statements, because he has vowed to remember everything that is happening here. If you accidentally say something wrong, he knows that even after a few weeks later!". Pah starts laughing. It sounds dry. I don't quite understand why he warns me about this trait, but it will probably have its reasons. To my surprise, it is finally beginning to dawn. So there really seems to be a daily cycle here.
Pah obviously wants to tell his story a little faster and finally concludes: "In any case, this story with the children is a memory. Arch was bullied for his many talents. Everyone also thought that his mindset was that of an empty doll. That's why he finally committed suicide in his old world. Before his dead the Dark God took at least his memories. Pah understood his whole situation and appearance in Aza right away and just decided to keep his old self, even if there were no good memories." Pah walks away from his place and moves, again towards the way we came here. The evening red shines over the white material and accordingly it adapts to the color. Now it reflects the red-orange light evenly. So, if I have understood correctly, the material adapts to the ambient light. This will probably also mean that Himalis Garden is illuminated whenever either the sun shines or the moon appears in the night sky. In the main garden, all irrigation systems are still in use. In the aftermath it doesn't seem to get colder because so far, I wouldn't have noticed an exact temperature difference. 
However, we only pass the garden through our way. We both go to the great building in the middle of Himalis Garden. There we will eat dinner. "I hope you're hungry! Rora will prepare you any dish that comes to your mind." Pah says. But before we enter the hall over the huge wooden gate, I ask: "Where am I going to sleep tonight. I'm certainly not going to stay out here in the garden!" Without turning his head in my direction at all, he simply replies: "You get a room right next to the large garden. A Ska will take you there after dinner! If you are dissatisfied with a beautiful view, then you can also sleep in the other buildings of course. But there is no luxury offered!". He starts laughing and enters the building slowly. Now I go up the precursors to the entrance and I open the gate. A golden glow covers my whole face. I am almost blinded by the enormous light. My eye, however, quickly gets used to the bright light and I enter the hall.

A fighter without a name is fighting for victory in a long-lasting war. When the battle seemed to have been won, the tide for his fate changed. Killed by an ambush, he now watches the battlefield without being able to do anything himself. But the sense of being a spectator is quickly taken from him by a mysterious fog that brings him to another world. Aza, the kingdom for all warriors who died honorably in battle. The fallen one is now greeted in this world by a man in a gold armor. When asked what name the warrior has, he couldn’t give him an answer. The man knows that the warrior has no name so he gives him the name Ruh. The unknown man then announces that Ruh is the first Genas of Aza. Ruh knows nothing to do with this statement and asks where his comrades, who have also fallen, are. The man dressed in gold replies to him that all of them don’t exist anymore. Neither in Aza nor anywhere else.

He saw the law Body made entirely of Universal energy.
His Law Body of Universal Energy is sitting cross legged, his eyes closed and the Universal energy around him spinning creation small vortexes that absorb more of the Universal energy.
It was then that the statue of the monk-like being glow with golden colors that pierced the darkness of space and changes the particles of Death and Destruction all around this Universe.
The aura around the statue changes. If before it was full of desolateness and despair, now it seems to contains infinite life and infinite light.
Hymn song seems to echoes through all of the Universe and the sound of people chanting Sutra-like song could be heard echoing from the deepest darkness as it pushes away the Darkness and bright Light, Life and Love.
A Divine Mountain appeared above the stairway, coming out from the Void of darkness, emanating boundless life and light that brings life and release souls from the suffering of Karma.
Now, the statue no longer look like an unmoving object.
It looks like the statue was imbued life and the statue now move and sit in a cross legged position with the statue fingers making mudras with its fingers.
Azief could see even in his current situation that the black halo behind that statue turns golden and it seems to turn into a holy halo that seems to elevate this statue into a higher existence.
This is Will. The Will of the former people that used to walk these steps. Each step has these statues not to fight the people who walk these steps, but to help him to keep walking.
Any sound seems to be erased as only peacefulness and quietude existed when that light shines itself over the Universe.
That is why Azief could suddenly have this revelation.  
Then suddenly the statue burst into fire but the fire could not harm the statue as it did not even leave a scratch.
Instead it refines the statue as it emits Universal energy and seems to fused itself with Azief law Body of Universal Energy.
A wheel of concept appears behind the statue with eight spoke in the large wheel. It seems to contain holiness and divine presence.
It looks like these Wheel created Eight Path that glitters with stars coming from the Divine Mountain above the stairway to the statue in the second step
The fire turns to fireflies that morph into blues hues of motes of light that seems to scatter like flower scattering in the fall.
Azief pay attention to these motes of light since he could feel the energy contains in each motes of light
When he scans it with his divine sense he could sense that the light does not really scatter. instead it fuses with everything
A concept of Oneness
Auspicious signs appeared in the nebula above the stairway. Golden Lotuses floats from the Divine Mountain and reach the second steps and that Lotuses floats around Azief Law body.
Azief sighed. He now could understand what it means to walk all thirteen steps of the real Supremacy Stairway.
To cultivate the Law Body, to bloom Seeds into Laws. He could walk until the end or he could give up now and fuse with only two laws body.
In the end he had to decide that for himself. Bu for him there was never any other choice.
He refuses to believe that this is his limit. His defiant Heart beats furiously and he closes his eyes and he instantly knew what he wants.
He is not giving up
But he let his eyes closed. He is trying to rest. He lay there while both of his Law Body keep sitting cross legged absorbing all the essence necessary to form Laws.
It felt like a year before Azief opens back his eyes. By now that feeling of listlessness and tiredness have disappeared.
He slowly gets up from his lying position.
The moment he stands up he wanted to climb the next stairs. His intention did not escape the Stairway as he could feel that latching force.
Like it could read his heart, it appeared
He now felt it even more clearly that something is wrapping up against his Disk. Slowly the binding on his Disk become even more powerful and painful.
It felt like they will pull the Disk the moment he takes the next step.
He winced but he also smirks. The pain, like always would be unbearable. But this is also a huge opportunity for him.
It is thankful that he has such powerful physique. If not, he would already be dead. He looked up at the stairs with eyes were filled with determination
His eyes shines brightly
If you think this will make me give up, then you give me too little credit'
The moment he lifted his foot to step onto the third step, the entire stairway rumbles and that shout once again echoes in his ear.
But this time Azief was not shaken by those roars anymore.
His Will did not even yield to the Heavens, so how could he just back down because some powerful people roars at him
His eyes seem to be shining with a powerful will.
Thunder seems to crackle in him, the trace of tribulation lightning that has fused with him surged out and a thunderous roars of lightning seems to pierce those roaring Will of the stairway
This time his Will pushed back the Will of those roaring inside his mind. His Willform nearly come out but was pushed back down by the Laws of the Supremacy Stairway.
And he stepped onto the fourth steps.
The planets and stars trembled and the giant stairs trembled even more. This time another diamond mark appeared on him.
This time it is on his right arm and it created a vein like patterns that is slowly spreading all over his arms like it is something alive
He felt that another part of him being cut and something is being taken away from him again but this time he refuses to bow down to his weakness.
He forced himself to stand and while the energy in his body is slowly depleting, now, standing there on the third step of this stairway that was built by many of the greatest and most powerful being in the Universe, he looks like a celestial god, his fluttering hair gave him a sense of elegance.
He looks from the fourth step looking down at the third step and saw his Law Body.
This Law Body is different than the rest.
His entire body seems to be tattooed with ancient rune and the energy he emitted was also different as it darkens the moon and bring an eternal coldness to the stair of the third step.
On the edge of the third step is another statue. This statue does not resemble human being at all.
But this statue must also be the state of some powerful Supreme Being.
This statue is a statue of tentacle like webbed creature.
It had small eyes, the end of the tentacles is filled with spikes and saw-like teeth on the end of its suckers and an antenna-like thing on the middle part of its head.
Azief could not see the statue before because he was unconscious for a while on the third step. But now he is on the fourth steps he could see the statue and he was shocked to see that the statue seems to emanate the same type of energy like of the ancient Runic energy
The more Azief progress on this stairway the more he understands about this stairway. Looking at these statues Azief doubt they possessed the same energy like he did.
Then the only explanation is that the statue adjusts the energy they emanated according to the energy of those who walk these steps.
He just walks until the fourth steps but the more he walks these steps the more he felt tired. He wanted to sleep and he wanted to quickly went out from this stairway.
He knows that this feeling is one of the byproduct of this stairway trying to affect his Will.
But that doesn't mean it is not true. He is tired. Both mentally and physically.
His energy is being ripped out of him with every steps. No one could understand how painful that is until they truly feel it
He sighed.
He knew he only had nine steps more to trek.
And he is determined to walk it until the end.
He wants to know what is waiting for him at the end.
Would he get teleported back to Earth? Or will he know something more about the secrets of the Universe.
************************************************************
He will walk five hundred miles and he will walk five hundred more. Da da da da da da (Do anybody got this reference?)
Anyway, Azief is slwoly walking to the end. But it will not be easy. And you will understand why later

This is the story of Lord Shadow.

PS: The SS stones is not determined by me. It is determined by how long the chapter is. I have taken steps to cut some of the chapters but there are some chapters that could not be cut as it would obstruct the story.

And a chapter is usually ten thousand word each. I have taken steps to cut it and make it into part sized in the later part of the story because many were complaining and thought I was the one that determines the SS so I hope this answers your question.

So....if you like long chapters and long story this is the story for you. Ciao. And hope you enjoy the story

PS: I also wrote Age of Heroes, Song of Heroes and Age of Adventure

"HOW DARE YOU!!!!!"

Andrei swinged his right arm to Summon his sword and dashed towards Gurren. 

He shouted as he dashed towards to him. 

Gurren were a little bit surprised from his reaction. 

"Good boy.... that was a good reaction... now...  don't let me get bored.. ANDREI!!!" 

As Andrei get closer to him, he didn't worry from what will happen to him. he just think that he can defeat him using his rage. 

At that moment, Andrei swinged his sword anywhere he want just to hit Gurren. 

Gurren Doged all of his upcoming attack. 

"Good boy Andrei... just attack me until you hit me...." 

Andrei didn't care what will happen. he just swing and swing his sword to Gurren. 

Gurren started to get bored. He decided to stop attacking him.

Using his left hand, he stopped Andrei swinging his sword. 

After that, he kicked him on his stomach several times. 

Andrei felt the pain on his stomach kicking him several times. His blood started to go out on his mouth. 

After a few minutes, he stopped kicking him. instead, he throw him on the ground. 

At that moment, he can't stand up neither hold his sword properly. 

Gurren started to walk towards and he stand up in front of him. 

Andrei can't move anything on his body. at that moment, he can only do seeing him standing on front of his body. 

Gurren started to talk to him. 

"Hey Andrei, didn't I told you..... that you don't make me bored? hah.... You're so pathetic...." 

Gurren stepped his face using his right foot. 

"You know what? A scum like you doesn't have any reason to live here. I don't know why that Umugani Weapon choose you. I'm stronger than you. No one is stronger than me.  everyone knows that....." 

Andrei speak to Gurren while he's being stepped on his face

"Then... w-why don't y-you k-kill me right now?"

"Hmm?"

"You said that.... I'm just a s-scum l-living on this world..

"Hmmm..... that's because I want to see you suffer... suffer until you die... It's my thing that I wanted to see people suffer allot. You know what?.. We can't protect our loved ones in this world even in the real world. I loss so many friends on this world because of that experiment. In able to live on this world, I killed them with my own weapon. That's why... in able to live on this world, you must suffer allot." 

Gurren get off his foot to Andrei's Face and kicked his stomach once again. He was knocked back several meters away and slammed on the wall. 

"Well then..... I guess our entertainment ended here huh..... Well.... don't worry, I will remember your existence on this world. I'm a man of my words. So... Farewell... Andrei"

Gurren squat a little bit and he put his spear on his right elbow. 

On that stance, he gain his spear skill in able to kill Andrei. A light starting to shine all over on his spear. 

While Gurren is preparing for his skill, Andrei is laying on the ground. he was seeing Gurren preparing his skill to kill him. A shining light is now on his spear. But still he's seeing that. he don't care what will happen to him anymore. 

"Ahhh... I guess I'll die now... I can't feel either my legs and my hands...." he murmured to himself like he's wishing for death. 

He closed his eyes. Thinking what happened before he get here on this world. 

"I'm sorry everyone.... I guess I'm breaking our promise... I'm so sorry... be safe... and take care..." 

As he closed his eyes and thinking the things before he die, he heard a voice. the same voice as he speak. 

"Are you sure you're gonna die here right now?" 

As he relax his mind on that dark surroundings before he die. His mind finding that voice around.

"Who's there?" 

A Golden white light shines throughout his mind. as the light shines, he saw a person that source of the light. 

"Don't worry..... it's me..." 

"Who are you?" 

"I'm a Umugani weapon. {Sword} Type weapon that Gurren talking about." 

He was amazed from what he saw. 

"Then, why are you here? what do you want from me?" 

"I want you to save this world..." 

"Huh?... in this dying estate?..... wh---" 

"Then you're giving up all of those efforts just to manage to survive?" 

Andrei were surprised from what he heard.

"You promised them. You trusted them, they trusted you. and you're saying you're giving up everything. those efforts to survive. those who died and who suffer allot, they are trying to save you.  and you're paying them a single Goodbye?"

"But..... they died because of me... they suffer because of me. I'm the one who blame this... it's my fault....." 

"It's not you Andrei.... Past is Past. you can't go over that tiny line between past and present. All you can do now is to move forward. I believe to you... that's why I chose you to be my Wielder." 

His tears flows on his face. Flowing sadness throughout his body. A tiny light of hope built up in the middle of darkness.

"I know the pain..... but those pain will once go away. as you move forward. Now come.... hold my hand. and I'll give you my power. As your Umugani weapon." 

That guy reached his right hand to Andrei. And Andrei reached that hand. As he accepted the offer, the light shines throughout the darkest place. A new beginning has been built. 

Back to Gurren, He already finished casting his skill. he's now ready to kill Andrei. 

"Hey!! I'm now ready to kill you right now. are you sure that you're gonna die laying down like that?" 

Andrei didn't respond to his question. Gurren thinks that he's already dead. 

"I guess you're already dead huh..... well then... I'll make sure I will get that Umugani weapon of yours. Goodbye Andrei....." 

He throw the spear to Andrei. But still Andrei didn't respond. 

And then. The spear landed to Andrei. and a huge explosion once again occurred. A huge mist created by the explosion wandered around. 

At that time, after Gurren avoided that huge attack, he's now ready to get the Umugani weapon. 

"Hah..... I guess my job is now over huh..... well its the time to get that Umugani weapon.... It's easier mission than I expected huh... well... it's his fault anyw-----" 

Gurren sensed something. a strong aura is coming out from the mist of smoke. 

"What is this feeling..... I feel so unpleasant..... huh??... don't tell me that..." 

That huge mist were moved away. And he saw Andrei standing in front of him. 

"He avoided that attack? but that attack is enough to destroy a huge mountain. but why?...ohh now I get it... he decreased that attack rate before it created a huge explosion.... but how??" Gurren murmured to himself as he was confused from what happened.

As he staring Andrei, he saw a golden light shining at the edge of his right eye. 

At that moment, Andrei opened his eyes. and a golden eye has been appeared on his right eye.

"His Right eye... that was an eye of the raged Umugani weapon wielder. it occurred when the wielder decided to maximize his stats and skills... and it occurred when.... it came out for the first time he used an actual Umugani weapon.... He's now able to control it...." 

Gurren decided to fight him once again. 

"Looks like we're having a round 2 huh..... well then... I'll give you what you deserve." He shouted to Andrei. 

"I'll beat you up..... GURREN!!!" Said Andrei as he trying to beat up Gurren. 

"Same to you ANDREI!!!!"

At this time, Andrei will once again will fight Gurren but with the use of Umugani weapon. Andrei still have a hope to get out on that floor. 

There's still 5940 seconds left before the portal closed.
