You expected Chapter Seven, but it was me, The Bonus Chapter!

Before we start, I'd like to make some special mentions.
First, to my friend in real life, Perspective_One. They were the first to tell me to write this and gave me advice with parts. They were also my unofficial editor. Thanks for your help!
The second is to my other Wattpad friend, Lunar_Dreamcatcher. More on her later. Which does remind me. Go check out Lunar_Dreamcatcher on Wattpad! She actually made some of my characters there on her book, They look amazing, and I can't thank her enough.
(Lunar, if you're reading this, you are one of my favourite people on Wattpad!)

Obviously, the skeletons don't look like skeletons. That's because we were made with Gacha Life, which only has humanoid characters. But we still look awesome, especially me. I mean, look at me! *swishes hair* I'm fabulous, darling!

Why do you sound like Mettaton all of a sudden?
Let me be. At any rate, enjoy! Oh, and I'll be switching between genders a lot, but I'll never explicitly say when. *smirks*

What the annoyance said. Enjoy!
*********** 
Here it is! The special lore chapter, even though it doesn't really have any lore in it and is more an explanation chapter about the series and how it came to be, as well as interesting facts about the characters. But no spoilers.
Also, the title for this chapter is a pun.
Replace the 'L' in lore with 'B'. That's this entire chapter in a nutshell. 
Also, I, Tyminator the Author, will be represented by basic text.
And I, Myriad the Infinite Soul, will be represented by basic text as well! You just have to guess who's who!

Okay. As evidenced by the title, this is NOT Chapter 7, which probably won't be out for a while. 
This guy takes forever to write chapters! Also, #ASkeleTONofMysteryiscool.
While we're on the subject of chapters...
Chapter 3: The Infinite Soul: I have the most words in the entire book so far! (4000+)
Chapter 6: A Mind Shrouded In Darkness (Part One): I'm about to end this man's whole career (6000+)
Fun fact: When I wrote The Infinite Soul, it was almost midnight, on a Friday. I was trying to get it finished before midnight so that I would be able to technically post it on a Friday.

So first up, here's the whole character deal. All the original Undertale characters are owned by Toby Fox. This includes: Alphys; Asgore; Asriel; Chara; Frisk; Mettaton; Papyrus; Sans; Toriel and Undyne, to name a few.  
W.D Gaster is also owned by Toby Fox. His last name was a fun little thing that I just put in. Lucida is not owned by Toby Fox and is an Original Character. However, she's a common Undertale OC and appears in a lot of fanfiction as Sans and Papyrus's mother. The same is more or less true in 'A SkeleTON of Mystery'.

You might want to be careful with what you say.
No kidding. Besides, I'm always careful.
When writing this, you nearly slipped a huge reveal.
But I didn't. So there.
Hmph.

Also, can we take a moment to admire that title? 
'A SkeleTON of Mystery'.
Absolute genius in my own opinion.

Meaning that it's a terrible title.

You try and come up with a better title. Anyways, a bit of backstory on it. So for my first readers, you might recall that the original title for the story was 'Humans and Monsters'. That was never meant to stay. It was just a placeholder until I came up with a better title. I did, one night when I was sleeping. That title...
Was not this one. That's because I didn't realise the idea I just had and went back to sleep. The next morning, I had forgotten it. That made me very frustrated because I didn't want to be stuck with that lame title of 'Humans and Monsters'. That implies that the story is about how monsters adjust to the surface world or about the lives of humans and monsters before the war.

You know, that doesn't sound like a bad plot for a story.
You've got a point there. Not doing it though.

Anyways, a few days later, I was sleeping again when a title came to me. That title...
Is this one. I basically wrote that on the back of cardboard so that I wouldn't forget. Then on my phone. And as you know, it became the official title for the story. And I love it. And always will. From the start, to the end.

You're forgetting someone.
Ah! Right, there is one other who I can say is mine: Avenair, The Elite Captain of The Royal Guard! This is a cool character that I invented. Originally, Avenair-
I'm going to stop you right there. You can't say anything about him yet. Not for a while.
Probably should wait until the mini arc is done, huh?

Wait, what mini arc?

Oh, right! Well, the last chapter had 'Part One' for a reason. You see, the next few chapters |excluding this one| will be part of a mini arc: A Mind Shrouded in Darkness, the mini arc about the memories of Sans and his past, as well as how the monster family react to them. And trust me, the things they find? Unexpected and definitely not used before. I hope.
Makes sense. Also, I was referring to me.
I know.

The other OC I created is Myriad, also known as The Infinite Soul. Now, I can reveal a bit more about him. Myriad originally was never meant to appear so early in the story. However, while I was writing Chapter Five, Revelations, I had to figure out how Sans would tell the others. 
Then I had an idea. What if it wasn't Sans who revealed everything, but rather someone else who knew him well? Thus, the current Myriad was born.

And it was a good idea. After all, I am amazing.

Debatable. Very debatable

Myriad was originally going to be like the guardian type, secretive, and giving answers in confusing ways. That was scrapped. Myriad became the egotistical type, always boasting. However, she would also want to help the others, because she alone knows the burden that Sans has to carry, and his twisted, painful past. She cared for him, like a best friend, even a sibling, and wanted to help.

Hey! S-Shut up! Baka!

See? So I played around with that. That version panned out well in my head. Then I got a little more creative, and included the 'Fourth Debates'. It's what I call the fun verbal battles between Myriad and I. Those will be common in the next few chapters. Probably

And we all know who's going to win. Unless you don't.
(It's me, obviously.)

Sure. Believe that if you want. It was a fun little thing that I wanted to put in. And besides, he'll be playing a major part in the future. Obviously.
OOO! Foreshadowing! By the way, what about Lunar?
Funny story. We first actually knew each other from a message thread. 
How'd you do that?

Basically, there's an Undertale fanfiction story called "Life can't be RESET". There was a random comment about Groundhog Day. Lunar and two others, one called Hestia2005 and the other called Aminabeen started this thread about Lunar and Hestia burning Groundhog Day. Lunar then wants to burn down the story's Fourth Wall, but Hestia tries to prevent her. She still does, and runs with Amina. When I found it, I decided to play along, and went after Lunar. The rest was a funny and ridiculous 'choose-your-own' chain. At that point, we both followed each other and have become virtual friends.

That's... stupid.

Just like you.

Uno reverse card.

Yu-Gi-Oh Counter Counter trap card.

Nani?!

|If you're confused by that, in Yu-Gi-Oh, there are cards called Counter cards that can negate an ability or effect. The Counter trap card Counter Counter is basically a card that can negate cards that negate effects. Still with me? 
Basically it's a stronger Uno reverse card that reverses a normal Uno Reverse card and can't be stopped.
*understanding dawns in the audience*| 

{Dang, I'm running out of things to say! Let me think...}
{Ah! Got it!}
I'm thinking of making an official character book for everyone in "A SkeleTON of Mystery". If you'd like to see that, let me know! If it get's greenlit, It'll be released after the 'A Mind Shrouded In Darkness" mini arc and will contain all the characters in alphabetical order. It will also update as the story progresses and new bits of information are revealed. It'll be its own book and will have extensive knowledge about the characters, as well as personal touches for some of them.

Wait, I've got something! So, some stories have Q & A sessions with the characters in the books. The audience can ask anything, and it won't be remembered in the actual story! Plus, it makes for a whole lot of good fun! 
What if we did that?! Not now, because there aren't many people reading this semi-decent excuse of a story, but later on down the track, when we've established everyone?

That sounds excellent! Good thinking!
Well, I AM The Infinite Soul after all. 
Yeah, yeah. 
Probably should have toned the ego down when making you.
Too late for regrets! 
*swishes hair in Tyminator's face*

Well, that's that! If you want to see more like this, I'd be happy to do so!
Though I'd have to figure out what it would be about.

You'll be fine. Now then, the next chapter will be in progress, and won't be released for a while. 
*Audience gasps*
Yes, I know. You won't see my amazing body for a while. But stay strong! There are a lot of other books that are much better then this one! And they're even completed! Jackpot!

In my defence, I'm still new to this whole thing. But yeah, the next chapter will take a while, partly because exam season is coming around the corner.
*peeks around the corner*
*quickly pulls head back, scared*
You okay?
Not at all...
Alright then! We're off!
Goodbye guys, and I'll see you later!







|You know, why not do a collaboration story with Lunar regarding that whole message thread?|
|You may be onto something...|

The Barrier was broken.
The Monsters were free.
Saved by a child of their jailers.
It has been a year. Monsters, while still not fully accepted, were starting to be a part of the human world again. Our favourite monsters, Asgore, Undyne, Alphys, Papyrus, Toriel and Sans chose to all live together, with Toriel adopting Frisk as her child and the rest as family. But Toriel senses something amiss with her dear 'pun-pal'. And what has happened to Frisk's biological family?

"A SkeleTon of Mystery" is my first official story ever, so take that into consideration when criticizing.

Hey, i just want to say thank you for reading my book. your readership will really help me in writing this book which is my first.

The function of this Author's Note is to give help to reader about the meaning or interpretation of the story and also interesting bits about names, concepts, etc. 

WARNING!!
This is not a theology lesson so take what i say about any religion related stuff in real life with grain of salt. Do your own research if you are interested in any theological topic.

So lets begin.
TITLE.
The title of this chapter is "In The Beginning" which is actually the original title used to refer to the book of genesis of the Hebrew Bible. In Hebrew Bible, the book of genesis is refered as "Bereshyt" which is the first word in the book of genesis meaning "in the beginning" (maybe?) just like this chapter.

STORY.
This is of course a generic creation story that just so happen to be inspired by the real life Holy Bible. or was it? (yeah it is). This chapter tells a story of the creation of gods which is actually takes that all the gods as a hypocrite in some sense. lets begin, ehmm ehmm. Aku gave the lands he created to Anu yet he wanted to destroy it after he gave it albeit in deceit. Anu, well he deceived his brother to give him all the lands he created while he basically became the most venerated that even his name shall not be used in vain. El is even worse as he abused his father name to take his brothers land and enslave some of them in an eternity of servetitude as Ang-El. It is messed up.

NAMES.
Aku.
Aku comes from a japanese word (yes i'm a weabs) "aku" or pronounced "ah-koo", the word has several meaning to it (as i know it). Aku in japanese means "to open" e.g. "to open a story", so the character Aku is used to open the story as he was the first one mentioned BY NAME in the story. The word aku in japanese also means "evil" which considering the author of this story of creation is the worshipper of Anui-El which has Anu's name on it which is the opposite diety of Aku. Interestingly, since this book is written by whorsipper of El, Aku might not be the real name of this diety but rather was invented by the author of this book to make a point that this diety is not to be venerated or exalted. but i digress. 

Anu.
Anu is in real life a mythological supreme god and ancestor to all diety of mesopotamian religion(?). Anu in the story reflects his real life counterpart as the supreme god and the father of all gods. Even his name carries power with it (we will talk about concept of name) as even El is afraid to use it. Anu in the story relinquish his power to his children especially El which he gave his name. The interesting part about Anu and El is that they are believed to be the same being (maybe?) but El is the Canaanite version of Anu so in the story they did become one as Anui-El.

El
El is in real life the Canaanite version on Anu. The name "el" in Hebrew means "god" as god in general sense but sometimes as specific diety El or Elohim or El Shaddai (in the Holy Bible). El was a god specific to northern kingdom of israel (maybe?) but later syncretisized YHWH, a god from souther kingdom of judah (maybe?). El in the story has a role as the supreme diety of all including his own brothers children of Anu as he is the one to wield Anu's (once again, not a dirty word) name as Anui-El.

Anui-El
Anui-El is El wielding his father's name alongside him. This form of El is the most powerful being in existence in the story. However his power is so great that El himself is afraid of using it. Interestingly Anui-El is (was?) one of the diety in my favorite game The Elder Scroll V : Skyrim. He is the father of Auri-El (Akatosh?). So yeah play Skyrim.

Ang-El
Ang-El is obviously the play of word "angel". Now, the original meaning of word "angel" doesn't hold any meaningful relation to El even though angel is the servant of El both in the story and real life Holy Bible (maybe?). Angel came from the greek word "angelos" which means "messanger" which is translation of hebrew word "malakh". So lets say in this story that Ang-El means well "Messanger of El" (please? i can use Abdi-El instead but it doesn't have the same punch so not as cool).

El-Shaddoll.
This is obviously a play word from the name of god " El Shaddai", or was it (yes it is). It is actually name taken from a (children?) card game yu-gi-oh (which got its own anime, yes im a weabs) which i used to play. In fact El-Shaddoll was my favorite archetype. anyway, El Shaddai usually translate to "god almighty" and El-Shaddoll is a play of El Shaddai and doll. Doll is a thing which has to be controlled by something in order to move so El-Shaddoll can mean "god almighty that controls everything" (yes it is ridiculous).

CONCEPT.
___.
The mark of the beginning of which even nothingness didn't exist. The "___" are made up from 3 letters of "_" which signifies cycle of life and death that is The Creation, The Preservation and The Destruction. This concepts borrows from hinduism concept of trimurti in ehich Brahma, Vishnu, and Syiva mirror this concept of beginning as it foretold the future.

The Being.
In the story, there was a being who created nothingness out of ___ but disappear afterward. This unammed and unknown being  is the godhead of the story or basically the author of this Bible which is me (this foretold what i'm about to do to this book. ha i'm joking. am i?).

The Lands and 70.
This is an interesting thing taken from the real life Holy Bible. In the book of deuteronomy 32:8 tells a strange story of Most High (El Elyon) dividing mankind into 70 nations and giving each land to each of his children which is the gods? (wait what?) which is a bizzare story found in monotheistic setting of the Holy Bible. So weird in fact that some translation just straight up weird and confusing.

The Name and The Gift of El.
The Name in the story refers to the name "Anu". In this universe, name is imbued with power or magic behind it (In fact there will be a story (no spoiler please!!) about a man who forcefullu gather names for himself). The Name or Anu is the most powerful name ever existed that even El is afraid of using it. The Gift of El of course refer to Anu's (damnit) gift to El which is his Name.

The Oath.
Holy or un-Holy oath or just any oath in this world or specifically the Land of El is damning for its breaker as punishment is severe and will be discussed in further chapter.

The Holy Bible of El-Ven is collection of story from a fantasy world El-Den telling its creation, gods and people. The book is written with inspiration from The Old Testament in a more fantasy point of view. 

This book is not meant to mock any religion as the writer is religious himself, it is however to provide enjoyable experience or just for fun. This book is written in a style thar the people of the story are supposed to be the one authoring the book not the writer.


Author's Note:
This is the first time i wrote a book and i am not an english speaker but i enjoyed reading english materials and decided to write myself.
In this book the reader will find author's note littered within the book to give the reader help on understanding the story, its interpretation and interesting bits.



Warning : This story is fiction and the likeliness of character and name in this story in relation of real life is coincidence or satirically deliberate.

"Grant my wi- Huh? "

At first, Ayushi didn't realize that she was pulled inside time dimension by me. but when she saw the spectrum left by time, similar to irregular glowing faint while lines in fog, she was speechless. when she was about to touch one of those spectra.

" Ayushi, you shouldn't touch that. it might look amazing but that space was once filled with time that flow around us all the time but we never notice, if you touch that space your hand might turn into dust even though I have cast high-level protection magic on you, I am not sure how it will able to protect you from time itself. So, you should be careful "

She was a little confused but it was not the first time that something strange has occurred to her. She was rather calm.

" What is this Sensei? and where are we? "

She didn't ask about me like before but rather situation. hemp, She knew about me alright, She knew was the one who took her into space at that time 

" We are in time dimension, this is the only God-like ability I have. I am the one who took you to space and whom you mistook as a pervert, Sorry I lied in the classroom "

This is troublesome, A God apologizing to a mortal, if he finds out about this I am sure *he will be furious

" Do not worry, I already knew it. when I saw sensei in the classroom but i wonder Aoi-Sensei, What a god-like person doing -teaching a class? "

She is actually too calm that it is creeping me out but it's not like I have any choice, I will try to convince my way out of this and will try to avoid erasing her memories.

I don't want to erase her memories because I don't believe she has many pleasant memories in her life, I can somehow feel it. I am a God after all, but if I failed to convince her (To keep my identity a secret) I will erase her memories

'System'

" We should go somewhere else, How about the moon? "

System - As you wish, Master.

( Wuss )

On next second we were on Moon

She was about 2 feet above the ground when we arrived at the moon. It suprised her and she lost balance, because of low gravity on the moon. Don't worry about infecting moon with bacteria, there is a barrier between our body and soil of moon so we will not be sparding bacteria and making them aliens. and it will also protect her body from sun and moon dust. After all, i don't want fluids inside her body to boil and come out of her body. ( Imagining Image ) Ehh, it will be a disgusting thing to see

" waaa woooww. We are on the moon ? this is amazing "

She was excited and happy. a true smile of happiness on her face, Hmp not a bad view.

" Aoi-Sensei, This is amazing. i can almost float in the air, just like jumping on a trampoline but in slow motions. (Jumps In Air) woooaaah, I can jump this high ? with this, I can even win in Olympics "

She is jumping around like a kid. i just hope she won't wander off too far -my barrier has it's limit

But

i wonder what it's feels like to be excited ( <--- Never been truly excited )

" Aoi-sensei, what's with your gloomy look ? "

EH? When did she come this close, She is too close! her face is too close !!

I Immediately took a step back

"Waah!... Ahem, it's nothing. I am happy that you are happy "

That suprised me, it's not good for my heart, yea yea i know it sounds stupid but I too can have a heart attack even though it will not kill me but it is still painful for a God who doesn't hold a title

She played around for a while

"  Aoi-sensei you granted my one wish so, I wouldn't ask for anything more but i want to know, What a God is doing among humans ? are you on a vacation or something? "

She doesn't seem to have greed like other humans. hmm, but still it's not like she is pure like spiritual beings.

"To be honest, yes i am but it is different kind of vacation "

i said i am on vacation but it is more like retirement than a vacation

" Aoi-sensei, would tell me more about yourself? "

"Eh? "

" I mean, it's not like we get to meet a God every day. I am curious about your world and, you "

hmmm So, She is curious but it is not something a mortal should know, at the same time. it's not like there are rules restricting me to not tell a mortal about the world of Gods

"Okay, I will tell you about me and the world of Gods "

There was a war between gods for the title of true god, for few (million) years but in the end, gods realized that The Title of True God is not something that could be passed among gods like this. So, the war seemed foolish. Not a single God gained anything by it but it costed 90% life of the Gods and many lost their title ( 90% of gods were killed in the war and became an untitled god, as well as fallen god )

I am someone who doesn't hold a Title just like an Untitled God -Aoi Kichiro, Untitled God

Few thousands years ago (I said few thousands of years ago but it was more likely 120,000 years ago ) a single god declared war against all of other gods, his reasons for waging a new war were unknown but it is said that the last war cost him something precious and he wanted to take revenge on all the other Gods but it is unclear. In that new war he managed to defeat a single God but it took him 100 years. After fighting with a single god he was on verge of death but he was still going, fighting. When One of Supreme God, God of War heard about it, he became furious " God of ********, You dare try to stand above every god." Said the God of War.

{ A SINGLE GOD, WHO TO DECLARED WAR ON 10 REAMING SUPREME GODS }

The God Who Started new war already was on verge of collapsing but the God of War attacked him mercilessly 

When The god ( Who started a new war on 10 reaming gods) was about to fall on the ground. He had already lost everything hope, wishes, comrades, loved ones, fear, happiness, joy, not a single emotion remained inside him

By a miracle, He somehow defeated a Supreme God, God of War

He gained unimaginable power.  ( No one knows Why or How he gained that power )

Then He killed every single God single-handedly on that same day, in one single day he erased exsistence of every other God. he gained unimaginable power, his power was .... i cannot even describe it with words alone it was like nothing,  nothing that started with everything

He Acquired Title of True God ( It's all far from the truth - mixer of lies and truth )

And I, Aoi Kichirm one of his subject. The God of Nothing -Emotions, I am nothing more than a mere subject of that being ( I cannot even tell her his name. Mikhail I wonder how is he doing and where he is now, The King of Angels one of my subordinate )

Well, That's who I am, I am his subject who is currently on vacation

About Heaven And Hell, They used to exist. What humans believed was truth before the 2nd war "

-I left Realm of Gods

-MASTER...

Umm

-What it is now, system?

-Advice, PLEASE, NEVER WRITE ANY SORT OF NOVEL, STORY. -That made up story was horrible, a mess.. 

-Eh ? seriously ? was it that bad?

-Yes Master

-.....

Ayushi looked down

" ( Looks up ) Aoi-sensei, Gods sure have some gloomy past. they are way more similar to humans than I thought, waging war for their selfish desire. there isn't much difference between us "

- She actually believed that horrible story?

- Shut up System. Thi- This is ra-- (  interesting ) after hearing that. I thought she would be sad to know that her parent's soul might be lost in the void. After all, now all humans who die, for their soul there isn't a single place for peace, to rest. they are not reincarnated nor they could go to heaven or hell

she is an interesting human. ( <--- Just being happy that his story was a hit ) but seriously, what's up with her future? and the past, The things that she had gone. it's not something like any mortal should have, it's dark and filled with- though in that darkness there this little hope inside her heart.

I wonder where it is coming from 

....

...

I SHALL TAKE HER UNDER MY PROTECTION.

( Aoi Kichiro, Took Ayushi a mere mortal under his protection. now no harm should come to this mortal as long as she lives, she shall live her life happily till the end of her time )

System - I heard you, master.

Yup good. Be my subject as I am his.

"Yes, Ayushi, What you said is indeed the truth. Gods are not exceptional to greed " ( but there is that true god )

-Master, you are staying in Time Dimension for far longer than I anticipated, it might endanger your life force

Oh, I forget about that.

-Yes, I know. We will be leaving time dimension, thank you for warning

Time Dimension is complicated space. if I stay here much longer I might lose my life and if I die there no way that this mortal would be able to sustain her own life without a source of life force that I am providing her right now

" Ayushi, we should head back now. "

" okay, Aoi-sensei "

hmmm About her last wish.

" Let's fly towards earth, in this way your last wish will be fulfilled. "

" Can we ??? "

" Of course we can. I might have lost my title of but I am still a God "

That's how I was able to grant her wishes. I didn't grant her wishes cause I pitied her or something like that, what I did was, my own wish, a selfish desire of mine to grant her wishes.

I came back to home after that, for sake of acting like a human, I could have wondered around town but it is night time right now, it's a bad time to wander around (<----Speaking from experience )

and I have gained somewhat of experience from last time when Ayushi mistook me as a pervert. I don't want that to happen again. by the way, I did not erase her memories, I felt as if she won't tell anyone about my true identity so it's all good right?

i am going to sleep now ( Again for sake of acting like a human )

;End of Chapter

A Short Story About A god.. who has lost his title and don't have much time left

He was searching for a peaceful place to spent his remaining time, when he came upon a high school girl called Ayushi

Goodbye, Sweet Prince

      I look on at Rei as her form loses existence, and starts to go transparent. I look back and forth between Kyle and Rei. Her ominous message about stories… it grips my heart tight. But now is not the time for yet another mystery. I'm about to lose her again.

      "Rei… I don't know if I can go on with one of you missing."

      She cups my cheek, rubbing her thumb over my lips. "You have these… women, for better or worse. They are no substitute for our destiny, but they will serve you well, and allow you to live out the last of your life to happiness."

      "Rei… are you the real Zeroth Knight?" Rose questions her.

      "I am as close to the "Zeroth Knight," as you call it, as you can get. But eons have passed from my time to yours. The Title has taken on a life of its own at this point. It follows its own path, seeking to right the wrongs it has experienced. My soul is merely that which powers it, gives it consciousness. I am the one whose thoughts and memories and heart have possessed each and every one of you. I am alive within all of you, as no matter where in existence Eve can be found, so can you all. I question how this came to be."

      I pray that the others either haven't realized she doesn't know the full truth that Loyalty spoke of, or are smart enough to not say anything. If she hasn't learned the entire truth after all she has been through, there has to be a reason. And the reason is likely because of her story… and mine, and the Beta. Likely, I've made sure not to sadden her in such a way.

      The others don't bring it up, and instead, continue asking questions. So many questions eat at Rei's time- time that should rightfully be mine. But you know what? I don't find much of an issue with it. After all, Rei is as much mine as the others, and she has a lot of time to make up for. Rei talking pulls me from my own thoughts.

      "You all have to understand what the Zeroth really is. It is a special Title, with a will of its own, yes. But it is so much more than that. To be Zero, one must only believe in themselves, and the future they can create. Look at Fennis, after all. He was never meant to wield the Title. And he paid the ultimate sacrifice for it."

      Mimi kicks at a rock, Rose twirls her fingers, Kay casts her eyes elsewhere, and Charlie continuously clenches and unclenches her fist. As for me, I can understand. Fennis was all kinds of bad that could be in a person. But he was still something important to all of them for so long. Well before I arrived, he was the First in the Consulate, the heir to the Zeroth Knight Title. After I returned home, he carried on that title and in his own way, fought to save everyone. In the end, for his beliefs… he gave his own life, his own existence.

      "I think it's time for us to scout ahead." Rose tells the others, and drags them away.

      "She still has that overly sensitive nature, ne?"

      " 'Ne' ?" I ask.

      "Heh, a tick from yours truly."

      "Baka." I use a very old word from my world.

      "Jerk." Hers, a more modern insult.

      "I met you, you know… in my world."

      "But another spectre of Reimiel, The Fallen Raven. Reimiel, The Traitor Of The Seraphim. Reimiel... The Void Walker. Yet another spectre… of the knight who vowed to save her girl. All different stories to be told."

      She wraps her arms around my waist and pulls me close. I can see the background through her now. "So this is really it, ne?"

      "It is. But we will meet again. We always do."

      "Rei, I think I love you."

      "As you are, you might. But you have to forget about me for a time, and love the ones still with you."

      "I do."

      "Way to be a woman killer there, Eve. Making me jealous." Her squinty eyes look dangerous, especially when accompanied by that bulging vein on her forehead. I giggle and settle my hands on her hips.

      "I love them all. But I wanted to let you know, regardless of my memories, I have come to love you too."

      A blush creeps across her cheeks and settles on her ears. Her golden eyes bare down on me. The pressure is reminiscent of our time together in the void of my mind.

      "Any tips to defeat Gee… Gehenna?" I ask her, but she's seemingly infatuated with nuzzling into my neck.

      "I've missed being able to hold you, so, so much." She pulls her head up again and meets my eyes. "Just be the best you Eve. That is the only way to take the bitch down. But I have faith in you. My girl will never lose to evil."

      "What if she isn't evil?"

      "Kill the bitch anyways. She's the reason the Beta exist."

      Pain stabs at my heart. Why has she never figured out the truth? Why, after eons, have I never told her about reality? There must be a reason… "I will do what I can Rei." I lean in and kiss her. She smiles into my kiss and pulls me closer. Her form is close to fading for good. My hands that once rested on her lovely hips, drop to my side. Her lovely countenance fades into a beautiful, golden dust as it is carried away by the wind.

      "Be seeing you, my love." Her voice echoes from an unseen realm. My tears paint the debris below me. I turn to look at Kyle, he wears a look of compassion.

      "I'm sorry… I really am. But as you cannot be anyone besides who you are, neither can I. The story is recorded. Her farewell will live on forever. I can not help against Queen. But I do wish you the best. Even as the world turns against you, I will hold my little flag for you." He bows to me, and disappears.

      Scribe… the eternal writer. What tales does he weave with that quil of his? What has his books seen? What do they show? As Rei said, more stories for another time. But here and now, this story approaches its end.

      I turn to see the group of women that have come so far with me, standing on a hill with a dour look. When my eyes meet theirs in turn, they each offer a smile. Even at the end of the world, it is our bonds that define us.

Isekai, fantasy, with the core themes of Identity and Fate. Story contains a, mostly, lesbian cast.

Volume 2 Synopsis: 

Evangeline Sayagawa makes the ultimate choice at the cost of the ultimate sacrifice: She decides to leave her world that she fought so hard to return to, and return to Arsea in hopes of saving everyone. Little was she aware of just how bad things had gotten. The world she was returning to was cast into chaos and on the precipice of being destroyed. She awakens in this new kind of Arsea, after having witness the end of a dear friend. The world now belonged to the monstrosities of old, the Beta, and their corrupted human warriors, the Eld.

With her fake identity, that which defined her in this world, being stripped from her, she now has to navigate a darkness in which not even the women she loves recognize her.


The first "chapter" posted here is a hyper-condensed version of volume/book 1, in case anyone needs a generalized refresher of events, or for those who wish to start with this book instead as it is faster paced and more action-packed than the first one. Suffice to say, but most of the details from book 1 are lost by doing this; however, enough of the more-important information is present to allow one to understand the general idea of what is going on.

This book features a mostly lesbian cast and deals more so with fate and crises of identity more than anything else. However, there is much more action in this one than any of my other stories thus far and brings about the end of Evangeline Sayagawa's story arch... sort of.

Volume 1 Synopsis:

 Just when she was about to confess to the man of her dreams, Eve is taken by a light to another world. Swallowing her up, against her will, eroding her, it demands a life so contrary to her previous one. In a new world with the title of “Zeroth” forced upon her, she must rely on her newfound “friends” to stay sane and navigate her responsibilities.

     But bit by bit, the world loses sight of the girl inside; seeing only “Zero,” the person she did not desire to be, but the hero that the world needed.

     Will Eve let the title she bears consume her, or will she become the hero in both body and mind? This is the tale of her struggles, and a star-crossed love destined by Fate to never converge. This is the tale of Zero.

Hmmmmmm... so far,... Let me give you the answers for some questions bugging the curious brains out there.

1.) Where do you get the ideas for your story?

**** Well actually I've been an avid reader of Webnovel since when I was in college and every time I read those translated stories, I have this other side of my mind wherein I wish that the character will do this and that instead of this. Then there were this "what if the main character said this blah blah" instead.
Those all sorts of ideas came flooding in my mind and as they accumulated over time,... finally I decided to make my own story and put those ideas together.

After going through some hesitation and self-doubt, here I am starting my own novel now!!! LOL! 

Never would I imagine that someone will get fond of reading this story. I thought that no one will notice my work and it will be left unnoticed just like that until it gets buried down to the sea of books out there.

MY DEAR READERS,... YOU'RE A GREAT SOURCE OF MOTIVATION TO KEEP MYSELF GOING... Thank You!!!

2.) Who did you model the Main Character after?

***** No one????? HAHAHA HAHAHA! I honestly don't know exactly where did I get Mu Lingxi. She was a combination of the characters I'd love from different books that I've read. Well, let me just give you some of those books that I've read instead.

I loved Zhang Xuan from LIBRARY OF HEAVENS PATH...He was my first love. LOL! HAHAHAHAH actually, Janus's way of speaking maybe was an influence from reading that novel.

I also read that girl SHEN YANXIAO, I loved her character, I hope Mu Lingxi will grow strong just like her. She was from THE GOOD FOR NOTHING eme...I honestly forgot the title.. hehe...sarreh

And many many more transmigration stories. I basically love transmigration with a lot of face slapping. HAHAHAHA

(BTW: I've been on hiatus in web novel ever since I started my field study cause I've been too busy and I no longer have enough time for myself. Much more to have the luxury of time to leisurely read novels... and I guess it's been more than a year already I think???)

3.) Are you a cat lover?
****** Certainly! I'm a proud mother of four...
Four cats to be precise! LOL! HAHAHA HAHAHA

Their names were Janus, Bina, NJ, and Bran.

Yes! You've read it right. HAHAHAHHA
Janus is for real!!!! Albeit the Janus that I have here is a white ragdoll cat. But if he could speak???? I'm pretty sure that he will talk exactly just like Janus in our story.

What makes me think that way??? Well, his blue eyes told me so... HEHE

4.) Where can we see her cross-dressing and start learning magic????

****Since my story is just created last July 5, basically it was just almost a month old.
Right now I'm still developing it further and I want to show everything she had been through after she transmigrated. As you can see, from the title itself, it says LIFE AFTER DEATH... So right now, as much as possible I was planning to show you more on her life after the transmigration thing.
Also if you will pay notice to some of the scenes that I discreetly mention in the chapters, it will give you a glimpse of some details here and there that will eventually be useful throughout the story.
In the meantime, I would like to ask for your patience. HEHE 

Pardon me if I can't just send Lingxi straight to Magus Academia and start learning magic right away.
But don't worry,  rest assured that I will do my best not to disappoint you guys. 

I promise that you will love SORCERESS 101. So just keep reading and stay calm.

What will you do if you suddenly wake up as another person after you die???

What will you also do if you realized that your pet, cat, started talking to you???
****

This is the story of Mu Lingxi, a hopeless romantic teenage girl from the 21st century who transmigrated to another world after falling to her death. Together with her little black cat Janus, she began to traverse an unfamiliar world where warlocks and sorceress exist.

Due to a few unexpected turns of events, she ended up being engaged with a prince.
But she strongly believes in Queen Elsa's words before from the movie FROZEN,
"You cannot marry a man you just met once!"
and this was why she highly objected to the marriage arrangement.
She even chose to cross dress just to hide her identity!

On her journey to learn the way of magic, she got herself entangled with five young handsome men. Together they will venture the world of magic, love, and friendship.

"Living in a place different from where I came from, how will I survive???

How could a hopeless romantic girl like me cope up with a life surrounded by five beautiful young men???

Will I be able to hide my true identity until the end??"

"MEOW~"
[Oh c'mon, little lass. Why are you asking yourself that??? You sound so rhetoric....
It's not for you to say, but for them to find out by themselves]
*Janus winked to the readers out there*



P.S.
Pic's not mine...Credits to the owner.

This one has to be expected, now that I've mass released the five-chapter specials. Hello again, AkaGin here, to talk about what will be the future in general.
I already blatantly hinted it already in the specials. But even I don't expect myself to announce this soon. I guess... to explain it, as though my point of view of art is applied to writing. It became a part of my life, as embarrassing as it sound.
So... what will be the future? I'm coming back sooner than what I had planned. Tentatively, I will be starting a new novel in a few weeks' time. I won't beat around the bush, it will be a continuation of Normal in Parenthesis. Even you all would have expected this with how the main story ended with some sort of a cliffhanger. I figured that it's no use turning back now.
And another reason for continuing the story is because the two months of my summer vacation won't be enough to make a concrete outline. So I decided to continue Gin and company's story, but in a new title.
I swear I've hinted the new title somewhere in the chapters, you can find it if you wish to. 
With that, NoFutsuu is seriously going to reach its aforementioned "total completion." By the time my new novel will be revealed, I will be marking this novel as complete. But this will probably not be the last Author's Words as I might tell you the title at some point in an update.
Thank you for reading this update and I will see you somewhere here in Webnovel!

"The world is unfair and unjust."

Is someone without his emotions can still be called 'human'? Or is one abnormal? Somehow, not everyone that appears to look human can't be technically human in this world.

Gin Sakato, a high school student finds himself in a normal life that he sought for and obtained. But everything changed just right after he was starting to discover his once lost emotions. With a life changing event, he faces the darkness of the reality and stood with courage, found his own self, found the love that saved him from the chasm and learn what is the reason of his being.

Was it Gin that influenced the people around him, or was it the other way around? Every one of them knows that one thing is for certain—the only constant thing in the world is change. It was the relentless force that led them to their cheers of glee, and cries of regrets. They realized: while there is despair, there is hope; and while there is hope, it does not mean that hopelessness will never fall anew. But in the midst of the storm, Gin, and everyone that clung to hope continued to push forward in their normal life and world.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Status: Novel has been completed.
A sequel will be continuing the story in 'Rainbow of the Horizon'.

"Is that so? Ah-Jian is indeed fortunate!" The Empress giggled.
"Asking the Empress, how did Your Majesty meet His Majesty?" Shen Tianyu asked back.
"Mn... I'll tell you if you stop calling me so formally~ We're already a family, there's no need for you to be so formal. Just call me Mother like the boys do~" Kuian Xiaoli coaxed Shen Tianyu.
"Empress, I'm only engaged, we're not officially married yet." 
"That's no matter. We like you so of course we're going to let you get married to Jian'er. Unless you don't want to? Jian'er didn't bully you into this, did he?" 
"No, Your Majesty. I merely think it a bit inappropriate. And the people might talk which would be unfavorable to the royal reputation."
"There's no need for you to worry over that too much, we'll be fine. Besides, the people do like an exciting love story. It's not like the officials have any say in the marriage matters of the royal family anyways. Now, come, call me Mother." 
"... Imperial Mother." Shen Tianyu muttered, licking her lips afterwards with a slight crease in her brows. This title was indeed a strange one for the her of this world. Ever since she was born, she never called someone else that title, first it was because she didn't have the opportunity to do so before her birth mother died. Then, her adopter didn't treat her like a daughter at all so she deemed it herself that the other was unfitting of this title that personifies care and love. After she was brought into Yaodu, there was no female figure that served as a motherly model. Her Master was hopelessly single and most of the people in that group, regardless of gender, was pretty rough around the edges. The closest was probably the head of the kitchens, who would literally break down her Master's door if he didn't eat his three meals a day. Even when in seclusion, elders and her Master had to take in her tray of food and eat it. 
In her last life, she only had a mother. Though she more or less had a few screws loose, the woman was her only other family and Shen Tianyu had loved her dearly. She saw with her own eyes from a young age how much the woman sacrificed for her and the affect such sacrifices had on her. Luckily, she found herself a significant other when Shen Tianyu was about to come of age so she was no longer worried about that aspect of her life. That was the only person she had ever called "Mother". And she was also the only person Shen Tianyu had decided was worthy of that title. Even her new mother-in-law, she will not call by that simple but meaningful title. 
"Ah... I guess that's fine. They do only call me Imperial Mother." Kuian Xiaoli sighed. 
"So then, Imperial Mother, how did you meet... Imperial Father?" Shen Tianyu tilted her head and looked at the Emperor sitting beside her companion, seeing if he objected to that form of address. Seeing him look her way without moving his head and giving a nod, she deemed it was correct and went back to her conversation with the Empress. 
"Oh, that's such a long story." Kuian Xiaoli said with a romantic sigh. 
'Weren't you a General? How romantic was it? Please don't tell me it's a hygiene thing.' Shen Tianyu worried over the contents of said story a bit too late. 
"You see, I was born in the Rong family, a group who basically had the title of the Right-Winged General in it's grasp. Every person of the Rong main family had been a Right-Winged General before or will be. My father, his father, my great-grandfather and so on..." Kuian Xiaoli had melancholy eyes as she looked into the distance, at something that was not there. Even while reliving the beautiful yet bittersweet memories, she still had a polite smile on her face, something expected of the Empress. 
"I had an older brother that was to be the Right-winged General, after all the necessary tests of course. Our ancestors had always been strict about doing things by the books and that became a family rule. He successfully became a Right-winged General, and I, as the little tomboy that would rather play-fight with the boys than learn literature at school, also joined the army. We were a family of Generals, after all. I reckon I was born without a single elegant nor sophisticated bone in my body. Of course, it's not to say women were barred from joining the army, but the things the battlefield could do to a woman... sigh, you understand. No one wants their daughter to be scarred, it'd make them ugly. My father was also like that at first but considering our roots, it wasn't very strange so he accepted it after throwing a small fit. I was placed in the same platoon as my brother, my father demanding he took care of me. And that was where I met Ah-liang. It was the first platoon led by the General himself, so of course we had more opportunities to interact with the Crown than did other groups. Ah-liang was the Crown Prince at the time and seeing as we were at war with Tianan, the late emperor sent out Ah-liang to fight in the war in order to boost morale. The late Empress was adamant about refusing as he was her only son but ah-liang himself accepted the suggestion and went to the battlefront himself so she was helpless. Of course, being the Crown Prince at the time, the Emperor wouldn't risk putting him in some other platoon and gave him to my brother to take care of. We were the ones with the history, after all. The Left-winged General position had always been a free for all for the common people, a way out of poverty if you will, but since they were considered as being from unknown origins, they were less trustworthy in the eyes of the court." Kuian Xiaoli started reminiscing about her youth with a slightly warmer gaze as Shen Tianyu listened attentively while eating food from her table. 


Update: 3 times per week

What would you do if you woke up as an infant in a jungle-like world?

The original envy of the world was reincarnated as an infant, child to a tragic couple. At the young age of 13, she was sold off by her self-proclaimed “biological” father. A useless beauty with no cultivation. But alas, it would be the biggest regret in their life. Those who once looked down on her shall recieve her wrath.
“Unfilial? So what? Why should a courtesan care what others say?”
The jack-of-all-trades prince follows her around and pampers her so much his monogamous parents are embarrassed for him.

But is she really as simple as she seems? This former envy of the world, just what could she be hiding in her past? Why does she sometimes have such empty eyes? Such low self-esteem in front of him? And, if she is a virgin, how can she be so knowledgeable about what goes on between couples?!

Author's Note: Like the new cover? DM Kiz#4961 on Discord and tell him how much you like it! Please don't be mean if you don't like the art or style, he took time out of his busy schedule to draw the cover and even gave it to me for free! Please be appreciative of the hardworking, creative people!

-----------------------------------
Hello Reader/Viewer Webnovel.




First, about the title of this Auxiliary Chapters, I want to write Novel instead Book, but after repeatedly voicing out, the word 'Book' seem better as the title for this Chapters.




This Book/Novel is originally created by me, but of course not purely everything is original, since I'm using some of other Novel/Book Concept, but the story is pure from my imagination and idea. the Concept like Cultivator, Qi, Zombie, Transmigration, OP MC, Shameless MC and other similar thing to other Novel/Book just merely about the concept, and I will try as much as I can to create Original Story around with it.






How came I'm run into this kind of Story?
I'm usually reading other Novel like Wuxia and other similar genre at first time I got into Online Novel World, and it's spread to other genre. And that lead to where I'm thinking to write about Cultivator and Zombie combination that I'm sure the Concept it's already exist out there, but what if the MC is Overpowered but not Overpowered? Maybe there already one exist, maybe not, but I will make sure the story is really different than other. This is where the Idea lead me to try writing/creating this story.






Why you Create/Write a Novel at Webnovel?
firstly, of course because Money, who didn't like about money? but after observing Webnovel for a long time, I'm not confidence that my story can be good enough to earn a little bit money from it, but still I wanna try first. I'm really have many Idea about story that I want to write/create. So, this will be my first story here on Webnovel and in the future if chance is coming I will try write more with, of course different genre, different story and different concept. [to the truth is, this is the Second novel that I wrote, the first one already here on Inkstone but I got stuck since the novel need more research and knowledge, it's only exist on my physical book first]






What this Auxiliary Chapters?
I'm really confused too, how to use this chapter. But I decided to make auxiliary chapters as Introduction, not just about the Novel itself. so the 'Author Thought' on Chapter will only be used for more explanation about the chapter itself or other notice.






About Author?
Since this is the first novel I wrote, and I'm not Native English speaker so there will be some grammar that wrong, word that not supposed to be there and here and I hope you all can help me with it, to correct me if I made a mistake so that I can improve my writing and grammar. And to still read it with my lack of ability, I'm only can say Thank You!


A little bit information about the background world of this novel/story. the World still have the same size like Earth, but with different topography map. for basic thing everything is the same like we usually encounter in our real life. I'm just try to change a few thing so that it will be slightly different.
--------------------------------------------------------
I WANT ENTER WRITING CONTEST WITH THIS NOVEL. SO I WILL RE UPLOAD ALL THE CHAPTER AND MAKE SOME ADJUSTMENT/FIXING TO THE STORY.
THANK YOU, HOPE YOU CAN STILL FOLLOW THIS NOVEL LATER ON.
KINDLY ASKING YOU FOR SUPPORT.
