Chapter 1Beginning after an End

Chapter 1 – Beginning after an End

The sound of musical instruments filled the air. Creating a harmonious and calming melody. Under the soothing music, swayed the candlelight of a huge azure chandelier hanging at the center of the hall, their light caused the crystalline wall to shimmer and revealing a coffin underneath.

Suddenly, a deep gasping sound broke the harmony. With a loud creaking sound, the coffin's lid was pushed aside by a pair of jade-like hands.

"Where am I?" Jhin asked in confusion as he stared at the magnificent chandelier above. Suddenly, his ears twitched, "Eh? This sounds so familiar. Is this Mozart's Requiem? But it's slightly different though..."

Puzzled, Jhin touched his chest and muttered to himself, "What's going on? Didn't I die already?" The memory of his dying moments was still fresh in his mind. The terror of death, and his dozens of regrets.

He was a CEO of a billion-dollar company. A young man riddled with achievements and success. In fact, one of his proudest accomplishments was becoming the youngest billionaire in the entire world– a twenty-year-old prodigy. However, all of these were swallowed by the abyss. He lost everything, his company, his wealth, and worst… His precious parents who always supported him. All because of a betrayal.

'Sighs~ I wonder how's mother doing? If only I invested more time with my family instead of investing in the company and her.' Jhin sighed regretfully. The bitter taste of betrayal made him want to puke. He couldn't help but criticize the irony of life –Only realizing the truly important things when you no longer have it.

Putting his hands on the coffin's sides, Jhin decided to stand up. However, his back just left the floor when the entire room suddenly glowed purple. Instantly, a gigantic circle filled with runic inscriptions formed above him.

"Wha– what's going on?" Jhin shook in fright. He stared in bewilderment as a thick ray of black light shot out from the magic circle and enveloped his body. Then, he started floating into the air.

"Ahhh!" Jhin screamed. Veins popped out on his forehead and neck. He could feel hundreds of gaseous substances piercing his skin. Every time it enters, an overwhelming pain would assault his senses.

Jhin focused his gaze on the black mist. The more he looked at it, the more he realized that it was slightly familiar. Suddenly, a certain scene flashed inside his mind. "Eh? Could it be?"

He remembered, just before he completely lost consciousness, a parchment covered by ominous black miasma revealed itself to him. Then a voice spoke inside his head, asking him to sign the contract. He thought he was just hallucinating, as such he readily agreed.

'Did that contract bring me here?' Jhin asked in disbelief. He found it hard to imagine what had transpired. Even so, the excruciating pain all over his body proved that it was indeed the reality.

The light around him intensified!

His body flew higher until he arrived at the center of the magic circle.

"Kacha!"

The entire hall shook! Then, all the light, including the runes of the magic circle rushed towards him. Disappearing as it touches his body.

The coffin turned into a rune and was imprinted on his wrist.

"Huff! Huff!"

Jhin's deep and hurried breathing echoed in the room. In a half-kneeling position, he supported himself using his arms. Fortunately, when the light almost disappeared, his floating body landed on the ground. Thus, he escaped the fate of falling to the ground.

Gradually, his breathing stabilized, causing him to sigh in relief, "That was so painful."

"Eh?"

Suddenly, Jhin caught a glimpse of something, he raised his hand and touched his face. "This…"

Underneath the crystalline floor reflected a man whose feature stunned Jhin. He wore a grey robe that perfectly matched with his masculine figure. He has a pair of ruby eyes, a pointed nose, elven-like ears, and two rows of pearly white teeth. However, these weren't the things that made Jhin stunned.

"This… Is this me? Did I get transmigrated into a paper race?" He murmured in disbelief. Instead of having the usual human skin, he on the other has skin akin to that of a literal white paper. As though he was a mummy wrapped in a single bandage. "What the hell is going on?"

Jhin watched in astonishment as a blue interface materialized in front of him. He read all the notifications repeatedly before finally accepting that he had indeed transmigrated.

Calming himself, Jhin closed his eyes, processing the information. When he opened it again, a vicious glint flashed deep inside them, "Unfaithful woman! Wait for my return!"

Without wasting time, Jhin started formulating a plan on how he should design the system. First, he needs to have a general idea about this world. And to do that, he must inspect the place.

Jhin started scanning his surroundings. He realized that aside from a single door, there was nothing else inside this huge hall. It was empty, the only source of light was the chandelier.

Standing up, Jhin started walking towards the door.

A Time Traveller's Guide to Feudal Japan

Do people chase greatness, or does greatness chase us? A.I. genius, Gengyo, through the assistance of SAPPHIRE attains the means to time travel. He seeks a simpler life, and wishes to experience the warmth of a family. But often we do not get what we want, we get what we deserve. And his peaceful times soon end, as war storms Japan, and in order to protect his peace, he must conquer. Join Gengyo as he walks a blood-stained path toward absolute domination, seizing control of Japan. //Brief extract from one of the battle scenes. Written from the point of view of a samurai landowner, Niwa Nakatane. The hooves grew closer to Nakatane's position and their beating hearts grew faster. Perhaps they could simply remain like that, hiding behind the tree, and allow these barbarians to pass? That way could they not return home to their families? Could they not give their dear wives one final kiss, or share one final story with their enthusiastic youth? Nakatane knew exactly what they were thinking. And as the ground rumbled, and the mounted beasts howled, he was the first man to step out from the trees and make his stand. "OORAH!" Possessed by a furious energy, he thrust out with all the aggression of a war god, puncturing Ochi's stallion through the chest with the sharpened wooden point of his lengthy spear. The mammoth fell from his mount clumsily, his head colliding with a nearby tree root. He ceased to move, and a pool of blood began to form around him. "ARM THESE SPEARS MEN! VICTORY SHALL BE OURS!" He stood in front of the charge of over 150 horsemen, alone. But he did not give a single inch of ground. He met the charge of the next man in line, roaring vengefully, possessed by all the rage and power that had accumulated in his body over these past years. The horsemen shrieked like a pack of hyenas, fanning out, each eager for a piece of the man who had brought down their leader. //I did not create the book cover. All credits go to the original creator.

The God of Calamity’s Wife prequel: before the beginning

*I apologize in advance for my dark villains! but a good villain needs a tragic reason to be evil. Please trust the process! You can check out my main book The God of Calamity’s Wife: Return of the 13th. It’s a story of their next reincarnation and they don’t have to be read in order. This book I would say is for my top fans so they can know all the history. Be sure to send Return of the 13th gifts and votes since it’s contracted! Centuries ago, war shattered Asgard. Tired of living in the shadow of the Aesir, Loki and his creatures of chaos sought the respect they believed was their due. Their rebellion, however, brought only death, exile, and the fleeting victory of the Aesir. But gods cannot die forever, and Loki’s defeat came with a prophecy: the war would come again, and next time, he would be ready. Many began to question whether Odin was truly fit to rule the realms. (But that was not my concern. I am an entity of death, a Fylgia bound to the cycles of life and fate. My interest lies elsewhere—with two souls cursed by Odin to live, die, and repeat their lonely existence for eternity. Sirius and Saoirse. For centuries, I’ve watched them endure lives destined for isolation and suffering. I’ve grown tired of their pain. What if they didn’t have to be alone? What if I could give them a chance to defy fate? And, perhaps, what if I could become part of the story that I’ve shaped? These were my thoughts leading up to the beginning of this story. But meddling with destiny has consequences. I probably should have paid more attention to that war, because what I didn’t realize was, by changing one thing, a ripple would expand across the realms that nobody could have anticipated.) Sirius and Saoirse, they weren’t just any Vampire and Werewolf that could have been brought together. They are creatures that must come to terms with the demon beasts inside of them or bringing them together might just end up finishing what Loki’s children had started. The problem is, all they want is a legacy. author note: This story builds a bit slower as it is part of a series but book 1 is complete so don’t miss out on book two. they don’t have to be read in order, book two has more action as well.
