Black String of Fate

"Is Fate the excuse of the forsaken, is Free Will the delusion of the chosen?" Such was a question that Xavier, the Demon King, never had the chance to ask himself. As he lay defeated, awaiting his death, he wondered about the wretched life he lived. 'The hero who killed me, the one who held the same ambitions as me. We both wanted good for the people, for the world. We are both two sides of the same coin, yet, fate decided that he will be the one the light will shine on. Perhaps it was me too, perhaps it was my karma for flowing the rivers of blood with my sword. But still... It was fate that squashed the humanity in me first! Damn fate, if I had one more chance, I would've lived for myself more, I wouldn't have taken this arbitrary role of being a necessary evil... This world, this game of destiny... It can burn to ashes for all I care.' As he sunk into the cold embrace of death, a certain [REDACTED] heard his dying wish with amusement and cast their die, reversing the wheel of time one last time and going all in on him on a risky gamble with the stakes of their world. ************** Discord Server: https://discord.gg/GkVmSkr8

The Talent of Xavier's Mage Path

Xavier read through the books that talked about mana breathing.

'It's an act to collect, purify, and store mana in your mana heart through your mana veins. Huh, it's very similar to the qi breathing that warriors practice. The difference is that while qi breathing is done through actual breathing and storing internal energy in the dantian, mana breathing is a much more spiritual process in which mana is collected through the 72 chakra points.

It looks like the number of chakra points one can use depends on the talent of the person. Well, let's see what the Celestial Mind can give me.'

Xavier sat down and began to close off all his senses. He had to get in a meditative state for the mana breathing to begin. Once he felt closed off from the world, he focused on trying to sense mana. It wasn't that difficult, since it came naturally to him and he had done it once before in the cave of the Salazar Ruins.
