43.98% Shadow Monarch: Multiverse Ascendance / Chapter 102: CHAPTER 97 BIRTH OF A MONSTER

Capítulo 102: CHAPTER 97 BIRTH OF A MONSTER

"Leave people to their own thoughts, and sooner or later they start questioning the powers that be. If you're in a position of power, the last thing you want folks to ask is whether or not the way things are, is the way they have to be."

– Sunda Granitz

....

"Then unleash it in the form of a pure cold wave that can freeze chemical bonds within molecules! Freezing beyond absolute zero," Jin rotated the pen in his hand before asking, "It is simple, isn't it?"

"NO, it's not!! Just like the things you've been creating over the last few days and nights," Esdeath exclaimed, hitting the table and causing the papers to scatter. She felt a headache coming on from these insane theories that always involved mass destruction.

"That's why you have to believe in yourself even more," Jin didn't pay much attention to Esdeath as he gathered the papers and placed them back on the table using Ruler's hands.

Meanwhile, Gorr swung his axe against Igris's sword and Buster's daggers. Iron clashed against Gold, Zelos faced off against Aella and Kluh. It seemed that the strongest named monsters were fighting alongside Jin, while others were on an EXP spree.

The clashes between them weren't just for fun, as they exploited each other's weaknesses. For example, the clash between Iron and Gold showcased a battle between high-speed attacks and the highest defense. Iron couldn't deal much damage to Gold due to his defense, while Iron struggled to keep up with Gold's rapid movements. Zelos faced a similar situation, as Kluh kept him occupied in close combat with his monstrous strength, while Aella used her bow and spear to attack him from a distance.

The same could be said for Gorr, whose strength, speed, and skills were countered by the technique he lacked. Igris and Buster excelled in technique, making it a timeless battle between power and technique, strength and experience, brawn and brains.

As everyone looked at the science duo, they couldn't understand a single word coming from their mouths. However, Gorr, Iron, Zelos, and the others were focused on each other's battles.

"Then, if you're thinking like this..." Esdeath massaged her temples before pointing at the monster and asking, "Explain to me, how did you create him, and what even is he?"

Jin looked at where Esdeath was pointing before he said, "Love. That's a very powerful being."

"They call him the devil, the thunder beast that was able to defeat countless enemies, even challenging the creation god..." Jin pushed his lips together as a wide grin spread across his face as he introduced the monster. "Pikachu!"

A huge man with a massive build wearing a complete set of armor with a lightning bolt on its chest plate. This was Pikachu, formerly known as Budo.

Jin had created Pikachu after mastering the Shadow shaping code of the Teigu. It possessed the ability to summon thunder from the sky and was equipped with an indestructible shadow that could regenerate energy using dark energy, something even Jin couldn't do yet.

"No, I mean, how did you make it?" Esdeath looked at Pikachu and had to admit that it looked majestic. She felt a strange sense of familiarity with it, but she didn't understand how Jin had created it.

"I just want to be the very best, like no one ever was," Jin replied calmly, finishing his words. "To catch them and enslave them forever is my real test~"

"As for how I do it... Well, let's just say it comes with the territory of being a Death God," Jin truthfully answered.

"May I ask, what does it mean to be a God? Or what even is a God?" Esdeath asked, her curiosity evident.

Hearing her question, Jin began to ponder deeply. After a few minutes of profound contemplation, he nodded and said, "To be honest, Esdeath, even I don't fully understand that. I'm very new to this god business, and it's even harder to explain how I feel about it."

"I see, but you do know that this explanation tells me nothing," Esdeath sighed, not comprehending anything he had said.

Although Esdeath had surpassed the level of masters in ice, she knew she was still no match for Jin and his starburst power.

Esdeath considered his words for a moment before sighing again and picking up another paper.

"Well, anyway..." Jin stood up from the table and said, "I'm going to test the results of our studies... Do you want to join?"

Jin looked at Esdeath, and as they locked eyes, she replied at the same time, "You're not planning to destroy everything again, are you?"

"No, no, no... Come on, you know me," Jin waved his hand, but Esdeath looked at him with a gaze filled with disbelief. The same disbelief was mirrored in his Shadows, recalling the last time he had conducted an experiment that ended in destruction.

Jin stared at Esdeath and his Shadows with a deadpan face before saying, "Do you want to come or not?"

"Yes," Esdeath replied, walking toward Jin. Gorr, Igris, Pikachu, Iron, Kluh, Zelos, Aella, Buster, and Iron followed Jin's command, making their way toward the mansion.

"Don't blink," Jin spanned his fingers before both of them disappeared in a blue glow.

Far away from the mansion, the duo reappeared on rocky grounds as they surveyed the surroundings.

"When did you learn teleportation?" Esdeath asked, witnessing him manipulate space for the first time.

"Well, it's all thanks to a guy I met in the capital. He had a Teigu that could do this. I just reverse-engineered the concept and created a skill," he answered honestly.

"I see. Does it mean you could do anything if you understand it? And can you rejuvenate the dead?" Esdeath inquired with curiosity.

"Yes, at least theoretically, but even I'm not sure. And no, I can't revive the dead, not yet at least. I don't have a firm grasp on the concept of life and death to resurrect someone. But it's not that far away, maybe not yet, not today, but someday soon," Jin said with a wide smile, knowing that he would soon conquer death and ascend beyond the mortal realm. His next target would be the shining stars in the depths of beautiful space.

"So... let's have a moment of silence for this place," Esdeath clasped her hands together, bidding farewell to the location because it was about to be destroyed, said in a joking manner.

"..." Jin felt that the way this woman looked at him was very wrong, but he didn't care too much as he took a few Teigus from his inventory.

Esdeath stared at the Teigus, all of which came from various beasts, some of which were still alive in the Imperial Arm. She was certain that some of them were in the Empire's treasury and in possession of the empire's soldiers. While others were unfamiliar to her. She felt a sense of resentment as she remembered being unable to use them no matter how hard she tried.

As Jin placed the Teigus on the ground, a blue glow appeared, and the yin and yang symbol shimmered. The Nona, Gorr, Igris, Pikachu, Iron, Kluh, Zelos, Aella, Buster, and Iron materialized, along with a new soldier who had never been seen before. He resembled a regular knight soldier but without the armor, wearing ordinary empyreal clothes. He had an octa-core pitch-black box embedded in his chest, an X-shaped scar on his face, and a crown-like headgear similar to his father's.

Meanwhile, Gorr and Igris were dragging a creature that appeared to be a mix of various super-class and special-class danger beasts. It had enormous wings resembling those of a pterodactyl, human-like hands with sharp claws, scales harder than steel, bone structure similar to Death Tagool, and a massive size. It possessed a variable number of eyes with cross-shaped pupils, three tails originating from different beasts, horns protruding from its body, sharp teeth, and oval-shaped red gemstones embedded in its forehead. Additionally, four huge horns emerged from its head, along with four massive kraken tentacles extending from its back.

It was a monstrous chimera, a creation of Jin. What shocked everyone the most was that this monstrosity was still alive, with two hearts beating simultaneously. The sheer weight of the creature caused the ground beneath it to reshape, but Gorr, Igris, Zelos, and Kluh managed to pull it somehow. 

"You've really gone all out with that thing, haven't you? But don't you think you went overboard?" Esdeath asked, unable to believe that Jin had created such a creature.

"Of course I did! There isn't a monster of high rank, and I wanted to conduct an experiment, so why not use everything I have?" Jin replied with a proud expression, as this result was the culmination of his hard work.

Indeed, every part of the chimera's body came from different beasts, either from this world or Jin's old world. Each part was carefully selected and planted to make the creature stronger. Even parts of Zelos and Gorr were incorporated into the beast.

Every organ in its body was strategically placed to provide various advantages.

"Yes, it's true that you've worked day and night to create this thing. We didn't even have any private time. But will it work? I mean, look at this thing. It can't even take a single step. It's a miracle that it's still breathing. I've lost count of how many times it was on the brink of death before you stepped in and healed it during the transplant operation... and now you're keeping it alive with life support," Esdeath expressed her concerns, sharing Jin's doubts. She knew he would be disappointed if this didn't work, and she would also be disappointed as it had consumed her previous time with her husband.

But if this experiment failed, they would have plenty of time together. Esdeath shook her head, trying to dismiss her thoughts if Jin failed.

"I don't know. Let's just hope it works. I've invested a lot of hours into this," Jin said as he ceased the continuous casting of healing spells, cutting off the life support for the beast. He then called out Pikachu and instructed him, "Use Thunder," knowing that it could take a while for the creature to die or potentially even evolve.

Pikachu raised his hand to the sky, summoning thunderclouds.

After observing the clouds, Jin turned to Esdeath and snapped his fingers, greatly amplifying the power of the thunder.

"Do you think it will be enough?" Esdeath raised an eyebrow, feeling that it wouldn't be sufficient to kill the creature.

"We could engage in a lengthy discussion about it, but in the end, there's no point in doing so," Jin's words left Esdeath feeling helpless. He raised his hand, and more thunderclouds gathered in the sky.

"Keep it like that," Esdeath nodded at Jin and Pikachu, feeling a sense of irony. Jin then called forth the new energy within his body.

Taking a deep breath, Jin's lungs and heart generated a substantial amount of mana and a hint of corruption energy before transferring it to the beast.

This situation continued until the sky was filled with dark clouds, crackling with thunder. Jin boosted the creature's energy by ten times before commanding Pikachu to release his electricity towards the sky. Thunder increased, and Jin directed the lightning to strike the beast's double hearts.

Esdeath watched in awe as the thunder and lightning struck the creature. Jin took a deep breath and rushed inside the protective aura surrounding him. A pink-black aura enveloped Jin as he picked up the beast and activated his new skill, "Arais."

Jin transferred an overwhelming amount of power to the beast, flooding its every cell with the energy of billions of people. The surge of energy revitalized even the dead cells, including the additional implanted organs forcefully integrated into its body. New neurons were formed, establishing connections that allowed the body to control its new body parts.

As the beast evolved, it attempted to utilize and adapt to its new body parts. However, this transformation only lasted a few seconds. The cells began dying as quickly as they rejuvenated due to the massive amount of the new energy clashing with the mana in its body. The beast's body started burning, turning to ash due to the thunder.

A gigantic ball of dark light materialized around Jin, gathering all the thunder around it. Pikachu continued to send thunder, and they noticed that the ball began to rise and absorb the electricity on its own.

Esdeath, feeling a sense of foreboding, asked, "Now what?" Jin smiled and replied, "Just wait a moment."

Gorr, Igris, Pikachu, and the teleporter looked up at the clouds, confused by the sudden increase in electromagnetic energy and the appearance of more clouds.

Jin smiled, feeling the process was complete. He walked forward, creating distance between himself and Esdeath, and declared, "Witness this moment..."

Raising his hand toward the sky, black thunder flashed through the clouds as Jin said, "I, Sung Jin-Woo, The Shadow Monarch, now release your constraints."

Esdeath stared at the dark clouds and looked at Jin, a realization flashing in her mind. Gorr sighed, covering his face, while Esdeath remained puzzled. Jin, however, continued with his words.

"Come forth..." Darkness descended from the sky, engulfing the beast's body without causing harm. The darkness began to be absorbed by the creature as Jin exclaimed, "Come, my Shadow... Monster of Destruction, The Father of All Monsters, Typhon!!!"

With a tremendous roar, shaking the entire area and reverberating throughout the empire, Typhon's monstrous cry sent chills down the spines of all who heard it. People turned their heads to locate the source of the monstrous roar, their blood running cold. As Typhon emerged from its shadow, its colossal size made Esdeath and Jin appear minuscule in comparison. Standing at a towering height of five hundred meters, with arms wide open, Typhon was so immense that it could embrace an entire mountain and a single misstep from the creature could topple buildings. 

 Even the passive energy emanating from the beast was so overwhelming that even Jin, and even his immortal shadows, felt the deadly threat it possessed. Instinctively, they knew that attacking it would likely lead to their own demise.

Gazing into its eight bright red eyes, the lion-like lightning mane on its face sent chills down the spines of those who beheld it. Esdeath, however, wore a wide grin with a glint of excitement in her eyes, relishing the thought of facing such a formidable opponent. Jin, on the other hand, remained eerily quiet, his wide eyes fixed on the system window.

"You have succeeded in Shadow Extraction.

You have succeeded in Shadow Strengthening!

The Shadow's level will start at 2."

With the birth of the beast, Typhon, it instantly became the highest-ranked creature in Jin's army. Its destructive power and versatility, possessing various skills from different monsters, made it a formidable adversary that even Jin's named monsters combined couldn't match. The imperial arms merged with its body, becoming an integral part of its flesh, enhancing its power and flexibility, much like the teleporter guy.

As the information about Typhon appeared in Jin's view, his eyes narrowed as he read the details floating above the shadow's head.

Typhon (Lv. 2)

Commander/General Grade.

Jin-Woo tightened his fists as he confirmed its grade. It was evident that Typhon possessed a power that far surpassed Jin's other soldiers, a power he had painstakingly created.

'Well, that's obvious, considering the number of beast body parts and Teigus I incorporated into its flesh. Its abilities now rival having more than ten elemental attacks: acid breath, fire breath, freeze breath, lightning breath, energy shot, and much more...'

The new grade alone indicated that this soldier was not an ordinary, common soldier. This was the result of Jin's tireless efforts to create this shadow.

As Typhon surveyed the shadow soldiers surrounding Jin and Esdeath, a booming sound echoed through the area. The shadow knelt down, meeting Jin-Woo's gaze, demonstrating the absolute loyalty that affected all the other shadow soldiers.

Capítulo 103: CHAPTER 98 Creations

"Living your life sympathizing with others in your everyday life is more powerful, than living your life based on a religious belief or some story."

– Akuto Sai

....

"Not again. So, was this chapter cut in half again? Yes, it did, and I don't think I need to tell you the reason. We all are smart enough to know why...

"I don't want to do this, nor do I like doing this, as it ruins the progression of the story."

Anyway, currently, I am writing at the end of this arc with the MC returning to the solo leveling world.

So now, I am planning the second next arc, which is again a world travel, but it would only happen once he establishes his own guild. Esdeath becomes a very well-known hunter, clearing both angel and demon dungeons, and much more.

So many more votes are coming, so take part in it.

PS Spoiler: it will be DXD, just around the time of the great war."

...

As Typhon surveyed the shadow soldiers surrounding Jin and Esdeath, a booming sound echoed through the area. The shadow knelt down, meeting Jin-Woo's gaze, demonstrating the absolute loyalty that affected all the other shadow soldiers.

Jin was still in shock, unable to react to the sudden earthquake. He found it hard to believe that he had successfully created such a powerful entity. Thoughts raced through his mind as he tried to make the most out of this newfound power.

As long as the beast lived, Jin could shape and modify it as he pleased. However, he also recognized that what he had accomplished was nearly impossible. It was a stroke of incredible luck and the power of the Tyrant's flesh that allowed the beast to adapt and form new connections for the implanted organs and limbs.

The limbs themselves were not the problem; it was the connection to the organs. Despite his attempts, even with beast healing spells, Jin couldn't create new neural connections in the mind.

He pondered the challenges he had faced, realizing that simply attaching limbs and organs wouldn't have worked, especially if they were previously paralyzed. For instance, if someone had a spinal cord injury, attaching a new set of legs wouldn't be effective without establishing new neural connections.

Jin understood that relying solely on luck was not a wise approach in life. He vowed to always rely on plans, preparations, and skills to shape his own destiny. That's why he incorporated the flesh of an ever-evolving beast into Typhon's body, recognizing its crucial role in the creation process. However, he knew that such a fortuitous event would likely never happen again without the creation of his own realm.

Jin-Woo's satisfied smile turned into a smirk as he looked at the beast's shadow. The shadow was still kneeling on the ground, its head deeply bowed.

'...'

Jin-Woo carefully observed the shadow before speaking slowly, almost as if he was confirming something.

"Was it you?"

The shadow opened its mouth and replied with a voice that sounded somewhat inarticulate but definitely intelligible.

"You have my undying devotion for bestowing such a wonderful name upon me..."

Esdeath, with a shocked expression, couldn't believe that a beast under Jin's control could communicate like this.

"How is it that you're able to talk?" she asked with curiosity.

"I just... can," the beast's shadow answered simply.

The conversation between Jin and the shadow continued, with the shadow recognizing Esdeath as Jin's mate and answering her questions as well, although not providing much helpful information.

Jin intervened to explain the connection between the shadow's ability to talk and its grade.

"It's related to their power level, the grades assigned to them. For example, Igris is an 'Elite Knight,' most of my soldiers are 'Knight' grade, Pikachu is 'Veteran Knight' grade, and Zelos is 'Veteran Elite Knight' grade. This guy is unlike my other soldiers. His grade is 'Commander' and 'General.' As they level up, they gain the ability to speak. It's dependent on their power level. He is not only the first of his kind but also the strongest in my army," Jin explained, his smile widening.

Esdeath repeated his explanation, fully comprehending the concept.

"That means all your boys and girls will start talking as soon as they level up high enough..."

"Yes, now you understand what I do," Jin replied mischievously.

Esdeath let out a sigh, expressing her frustration at how effortlessly Jin's shadows could gain such powers compared to her own struggles of reading and practicing for countless hours to achieve her level.

Jin reflected on why he had chosen to reveal his abilities to Esdeath. He acknowledged that he trusted her deeply and knew that her love for him was unwavering. However, he kept his true powers and system a secret, not even trusting himself with such knowledge. He shared some information about his abilities but never the exact details or workings.

He understood the significance of love being reciprocated, and he appreciated the unwavering love of a yandere like Esdeath. He was grateful that he had arrived in this world before the canon story began, as he could have lost her forever if she had fallen for the protagonist.

"I don't think someone needs to be jealous when she can freeze entire continents," Jin teased, flashing a smile at Esdeath.

As Jin thought about the situation, he realized that yet another reason for raising the levels of his soldiers had been added to the list. With a brief pause, he turned to the giant's shadow, the one he had always wanted to ask.

"I'm the one who killed you," Jin stated.

The ant's shadow remained silent for a moment before delivering an unexpected reply.

"I... didn't die. Through the power of my liege, I am reborn. You didn't kill me, my lord. You made me into who I am now."

The shadow raised its head, meeting Jin's gaze.

"Within me, elation overflows. I shall follow my liege for eternity. You made me a primal beast with powers beyond mortal understanding."

Jin countered, "And in the process, I also caused you pain beyond mortal understanding."

The sudden realization hit Jin. He understood why the shadow could communicate its true feelings.

Jin's heart pounded powerfully at the moment when the beast's shadow swore its eternal loyalty. He placed his hand on his chest, trying to calm his wildly beating heart. Eventually, it regained its usual calmness.

Once again, the ant's shadow lowered its head and pleaded with Jin.

"Oh, my king... Please, do not speak of pain. You didn't give me pain, but power comes with its own share of pain. Results matter, not the path taken to achieve them. Before you remade me, I was a mere laser creature. You are the creator who has given me this magnificent form. Please, grant me the permission to stand beside you for eternity."

The conversation had come full circle.

This experience felt different to Jin. Now he was being called a creator, something he had never considered himself to be. He was hearing the plea directly from the subject rather than through the prompts of the System.

Jin pondered for a moment before a smirk formed on his face.

"...Well then, I'll allow it, Typhon."

Ignoring Esdeath's face-palming herself, Jin looked at Typhon and said, "Now this is a Beast... This is so relevant for me."

Jin nodded with satisfaction at his new beast, and for the first time, he used his intellect to immensely boost the power of the beast. This also proves that he could create a Chimera, and as long as the process is done the right way and the creature remains alive during the process, the creature's shadow could successfully use the new body part.

But again, it was all a game of the mind. The usual creation of giant monsters is still possible, but it's entirely different with small creatures. In battle, unleashing a giant makes the most sense, but it's always the case that bigger is better, as the bigger they are, the harder they fall.

This beast is the primogenitor and bearer of many beasts. Jin even hunted a Tyrant just for this. As soon as he got the news that his army had seen a Tyrant, he ran for it, as he knew that only the flesh of this beast could allow him to create hybrids. Unfortunately, Jin could only find one.

So its flesh was very limited; he didn't have a lot, and its lungs were already used for Typhon.

This beast was very powerful, capable of destroying everything in its way.

Jin breathed a sigh of relief as his attempt was successful. Even though he had already tried with Telo, previously known as the son of Prime Minister Honest, Syura, it was a trifling experiment as the guy's Imperial Arm was a hand-held teleporter that worked with thoughts, called Dimensional Formation: Shambhala.

Shambhala which capable of spatial manipulation. Its user is granted with the ability to teleport people or objects over a large distance, using markers placed at the target of the teleportation.

One thing anyone would tell you is that it's a terrible idea to hold such a thing, and it's not like it could only be used by him; anyone holding it could use it.

Which was something I did. I used my speed and cut off the hand that was holding it, just as it happened in the story. I didn't want to deal with the same thing once it became my shadow and have someone escape with such a dangerous item.

So, just like with the living armor, I cut open his chest, pulled his heart out while keeping him alive with the constant use of Divine Light. I attached the Imperial Arm with straps in place of his heart and stitched the wound. Then, I killed him and raised him as my shadow.

And it worked. The Shambhala became part of his body and could be used perfectly. Even cutting the shadow right at the place of Shambhala did nothing, as it put itself back into its original shape, just like with the shadow weapons.

So, shadow weapons can't be destroyed permanently. What was unique about him was that the signature mark of Shambhala, the yin and yang sign, appeared on Telo's chest. The colors were black and purple, instead of white and black, and this was the same for the symbols that appeared when it appeared and disappeared.

Syura was a scum on earth in which his actions can go from brutally murdering civilians for no reason to showing a more perverted murderous side just by counting all those women that disappeared around the Empire. Despite that, Syura is a spoiled brat that thought everything should go as he pleases, and becomes violent whenever someone gets in his way. The only thing that keeps this guy in check is his obsession with his father and fear from the true strong like Budo and Esdeath.

.....

"Not again. So, was this chapter cut in half again? Yes, it did, and I don't think I need to tell you the reason. We all are smart enough to know why...
