Shadow Slave: The Holy Emperor

This is a self-insert story, and yes, I got rid of Sunny because I felt like it. I am also stealing a few attributes and ideas from other fanfics. (I will be putting the names below this) This is my first attempt to write a fanfiction, and I'm taking inspiration from damn reincarnation for the aspect. I'm going to be putting in OCs. (there will be a picture) Weaving a New Web Warning: There are cuss words. Also, the R18 tag is a maybe, just in case I ever decide to.

Divine Aspect

[Prepare for appraisal…]

Keter finds himself in a seemingly endless sea of stars. "So those are the strings of fate, huh? It's beautiful, absolutely gorgeous." Keter's gaze wanders across the sea of stars, and then he says, "Weaver is a goddamn monster to be able to make something like this." 

[You have received a Memory: Robes of the Lost]

Keter's eyebrows furrowed as he frowned."Why am I getting a Memory? I didn't kill anyone. Oh, yeah, the kills done by the blessings count as mine," Keter eventually remembered.

[Aspirant! Your trial is over.]

[A child forced to bear the weight of the world with their own blood. Enduring the sorrow of those before him. Called his own death with an unwavering faith, he spilled his very soul into the blood-ridden fountain. Called upon the Gods with nothing but his own will, a will the world could not ignore. The Gods were dead, and yet they listened]

[You have defeated seventy-two dormant humans]

[You have defeated eleven awakened humans]

[You have defeated ascended human: Cardinal Jacob]

[You have received the Heart God's Blessing]

[You have received the Sun God's Blessing]

[You have received the Shadow God's attention]

[You have received the Storm God's attention]

[You have received the War God's attention]

[You have received the Beast God's attention]

[You have achieved the impossible!]

[Final appraisal: glorious. Your faith is truly boundless.]

"Lord have mercy, what the hell have I done," Keter says with exasperation. "Well, at least I'm going to be able to keep up with Sunny and Nephis."

[Dreamer Keter Asterion, receive your boon!]

"Finally, let's get to the good part." Keter grins, truly happy for the first time in months.

[You have been bestowed a True Name: Holy Emperor.]

"That might make me cringe a little if someone ever calls me that," Keter grimaces. "Well, maybe it's not that bad," Keter says, remembering some Shadow Slave fanfics he's read. "Yeah, uh, this true name is actually pretty good."

[Your Aspect is ready to evolve. Evolve Aspect?]

"Yes, without a doubt," Keter says without hesitation.

[Awakened Aspect Saint Candidate is evolving…]

[New Aspect acquired.]

[Aspect Rank: Divine.]

"That's expected due to the god shenanigans and all." Keter srugs.

[Aspect Name: Saint of the Everlasting Light.]

"That's a long ass name, but alright." Keter laughs a little.

Aspect: Saint of the Everlasting Light(Divine) 

Aspect Description:[You are the successor of the Holy Emperor doomed to observe but never connect with the people you love so much; obsession follows you wherever you go] 

Innate ability:[Eyes of Heart]

As an observer, you can see the hearts of others.

"so that's where my true name comes from. Eyes of Heart looks like a rip of Fairy Eyes from Fate." Keter hummus a little, trying to contain his excitement. "I can already tell what my flaw is going to be, though, with that kind of description."

[The First Seal is broken.]

[Awakening dormant powers…]

Keter breathes in deeply as he feels a euphoric rush of energy run through his body, making him feel better than ever. "Oh, that felt great." Keter breathes out deeply, shuddering as he does so. "Is this what drugs feel like? Because if it is, then I'm starting to understand the love." Keter finally noticed his surroundings: a blinding white-gold radiance with a transport orb orbiting his dormant soul core. "This place feels so comfortable as if I'm being hugged from all sides."

[Awakening Aspect Ability…]

Keter forced himself back to attention.

[Aspect Ability acquired.]

[Aspect Ability Name: Miracle.]

"Oh, that's an interesting name for a starting ability," Keter says, worrying about just how bad his flaw will be. "Miracle is one of the broadest terms in the world. Which means it has huge potential, but it's probably restricted to just buffs and heals right now since I'm just a sleeper. That is still incredibly useful."

Name: Keter Asterion

True Name: Holy Emperor

Rank: Dreamer

Class: Beast

Light Core: Dormant

Light Fragment:[311/1000]

"With just how bright my soul sea is, I was expecting a different type of core, and with just how cliche that kind of development is. But three hundred and eleven Light Fragments is insane!"Keter stresses that last part.

[Two of your Attributes are ready to evolve.]

"What? Are you serious?" Keter says, extremely confused.

Memories:[Robes of the Lost]

Echos:

Attributes:[Untainted Faith] [Child of Light] [Mark of Divinity] [Dreamspawn] [The Heart]

[Untainted Faith]

An untainted soul, a body tempered by the blood of saints(the holy kind), a mind reinforced by an undying faith, a spirit unrelinquished to authority.

[The Heart]

You have inherited the complete lineage of the Heart God.

"So that's what changed. I still don't know what either of them does." Keter groans.

[All power has a price.]

[You have received a Flaw.]

[Your Flaw is: Distant]

[There will always be distance between you and those below you.]

"Yeah, I guessed based on the Aspect description. I wonder what below you encompasses?" Keter says, curious.

[Wake up, Holy Emperor!]

The white-gold sky spun and disappeared.
