Chapter 5

After I returned home, I decided to take a shower and have dinner before going to sleep, although I didn't need to due to the Shadow Monarch power flowing inside me, it was one of the things that brought peace to my mind.

So, after the bath, I went to the massage room that had everything related to massage there, even the massage chair, there were lins of them.

There was even a machine filled with cold and hot drinks to enjoy after the bath.

I picked chocolate milk and drank it which was so refreshing before going to one of the chairs and enjoyed my body being massaged.

It was so good, you should try it.

Some time later, I got up and went to the kitchen and prepared a light dinner and ate it before enjoying the TV.

Through the TV, I saw the news and from it I knew that I was in Japan at least.

Which made me relieved as it was the main stage for the plot.

After that, I found it was enough so I turned it off and went to the master bedroom that had a very large and wide king sized bed that was so comfortable and could make you sleep immediately once you lay down on it.

Anyway, I got into a comfortable position before closing my eyes and before I slept I wished good nights for my shadow soldiers which made them cry tears of happiness.

Sigh, although they are so good and all but they are still tough to deal with. Like come on, why you cry on everything I do or say? Even if I praised you a little, why crying, I respect you all and know that you are so powerful so stop, it's annoying. Especially you Beru.

Go watch some K-drama or something.

Although I said that, in my heart but I know that right now, Beru was in the living room watching K-drama while overreacting with the scenes.

I don't mind tho, as long as he doesn't cause any problems.

With that, I actually slept this time, and had some good dreams.

In the next day, I decide to train and familiarize with the other skills and weapons especially the four main weapons: Sword, Lance, Bow, and Daggers..

I wanted to reach a point of using them as breathing.

This was my routine for today and even in the next days.

As days passed I kept training with my soldiers like Igris, Tusk, Beru and Bellion. All of them had very powerful and devastating abilities and attacks that could destroy countries easily like breathing.

And due to that, my over all control became perfect and now I could fight any enemy easily.

Although I have millions of soldiers in my arsenal waiting for my order to spread chaos and death, I wanted to fight by myself as well.

After all I don't want to be like those shitty necromancers who hide behind their undead and do nothing but talking bullshit while waiting for their soldiers to beat the enemy.

It's tiring tho.

And so like that, one month had passed with me having a fixed routine.

Waking up, jogging (as in my past life), taking a bath, having a delicious breakfast, training and training, take a bath again, massage, then dinner, TV and news, then sleep.

This was my routine for one month.

Through it I discovered that I could use other elements like fire, wind, ice, earth, lighting and so on, even life element that I knew I could use when I first fought Igris.

At that time, I tried to use my mana to make some flowers that were dying to be alive again.

I just intended to feed them my mana, but I didn't imagine that I could use Life element for me who rule the darkness and roam the land of eternal death.

Anyway, that made me more powerful and versatile.

So I trained on each element a day for a whole month and it seems that it would take much more time until I master the elements.

Today, I had a different plan, I decided to explore the city I was living in for the past month so I could know where I was.

And with that, I wore some simple clothes which were, long sleeved black t-shirt that emphasized my tones muscles, black pants and white sneakers.

So simple but I like it.

And with that, I went out.

The place where my mansion was located was a neighborhood that was so peaceful and quiet making the one who live here feel comfortable.

While walking, I was looking around to familiarize myself with the neighborhood and the city.

I saw some housewives who were walking while holding the bags of groceries. They glanced at me and became dazed before blushing hard like a boiled lobster. I knew I was handsome but not to this extent.

Although like this inwardly, but my heart was so calm and my face was indifferent.

I traveled through the city and explored everywhere my eyes could see and within my reach.

And because of that, I knew where I was.

I was living in Kouh city this whole time and knew this because while strolling I saw a highschool called Kouh Academy.

I ignored it for the time being as it seems that the plot hadn't started yet.

Then I continued my strolling before I suddenly sensed some magic fluctuations coming from a certain direction, so deciding to see what was happening, I vanished from my place.

It seems there was a problem.

///

In a certain shrine, a woman who was so beautiful with long black hair tied in a loose ponytail and had golden brown eyes, her body was sexy and arousing with those huge milkers and wide hips along with thick legendary thighs and big ass that her shrine maiden clothes couldn't hide at all.

Beside her was a little girl that was like a perfect copy of the woman but with purple eyes.

They were Shuri Himejima and her daughter, Akeno.

They were faced by a group of men wearing white robes and hoodies who had hostile expressions on their ugly faces.

"You can't escape from us, Shuri. So you better give up and let us kill you once and for all." The who seemed to be the leader spoke.

"You made a sin by falling in love with a filthy fallen angel and even had a daughter with him. Disgusting." The man beside him said while looking at Akeno with disgust, making the girl flinch and hide behind her mother with tears threatening to fall.

"We better kill you and your daughter together so you won't be separated, this is the least we could do for you." The leader said again.

But Shuri looked angry and irritated at how unreasonable these people from her clan were.

Shuri was a princess from one of the five principal clans in Tokyo that was blessed with the Scared Beasts and Shinto Gods, and when she healed the injured Baraqiel, she fell in love with him and had a daughter with him which was Akeno.

But just because she fell in love with a man from a different race, she was punished by death.

She ran away from her clan to this Shrine in Kouh town but they caught her in the end.

She felt angry, irritated and sad. She wondered where was her husband, Baraqiel, at the moment.

Seeing him not coming to help her and her daughter and with no one to help them, she felt hopeless but at least, she could help her daughter escape.

Then, with determination burning in her eyes, she turned to her daughter and crouched down to match her height, and with a gentle loving smile.

"Akeno, I want you to run away in the forest while I will give you time to run. Run as fast as you can and don't look back, okay?"

Hearing her mother saying that, Akeno began crying and shook her head in rejection.

"No, I don't want to leave mother, I want to be with you."

"Ha, even your daughter doesn't want to leave you, so just accept your fate and die together with her. It's easier that way." The leader's disgusting voice sounded again.

"Listen to me Akeno, I want you to survive to get stronger and live a happy life in the future. I don't want to see my baby die with me. So go, run!" Shuri said with tears falling from her eyes, making Akeno cry more harder, but she knew that this was her mother's last wish and she should grant it.

'Dad, why didn't you come to save us. I hate you!' She screamed in her heart while running toward the forest with tears flying from her eyes, while Shuri smiled at her daughter back before she became serious and the smile disappeared, then stood up and was getting ready to at least take one of them with her.

"Leave the mother to me, you take her daughter." The leader said that, before one of his subordinates ran in an incredible speed and blocked Akeno's way before she reached the forest.

"Forgive me girl, but this is the fault of your mother." He said before he began to chant something and in the next moment lightning came down on her from above.

"AKENO, NOOOOOOOOO!!!" Shuri screamed in pain and sadness seeing her daughter being killed by lightning.

"Now, with the daughter killed, it's your turn." The leader said with an apathetic tone as if he didn't care about the little girl that his subordinate had just killed.

Shuri felt great sadness as her lovely daughter had just died in front of her eyes. She blamed herself of her inability to protect her, she blamed her weakness, she blamed the person she fell in love with as he didn't come and protect her and her daughter.

The man who she sacrificed everything for didn't come to save her and now her daughter died.

Pain.

Agony.

Sadness.

Anger.

Depression.

Hate.

Pure hate.

All the negative emotions were swirling inside her like a tornado. Her eyes became empty and was filled with darkness.

She was falling.

Falling deeply.

But then...

"How heartless of you to try to kill a little girl like her, hum?"

The voice of a man that was cold and indifferent sounded in the whole place.

Silence. No one could move. Behind, death is calling, making their hairs stand like needles from fear. Their faces turned ugly and seemed like lost all their colors.

But...

All the people turned their heads behind them to know the source of that terrible aura that reeked with such sinister feeling.

But then, all they saw was a tall man with jet black hair and glowing purple eyes looking at them with indifference.

"Beru, bring the girl to me." He ordered.

Then from the place that was hit by lightning earlier, a great tall dark ant that was walking on two legs like a human.

The ant had purple outlines along with violet hues in its body, and with the giant body that reached more than 2 meters, and those glowing big eyes that made anyone look at them feel pure fear.

He was Beru, the Ant King and one of Shadow of the Shadow Monarch.

When all robbed men looked at him, they felt fear, pure fear as the presence of him was so strong. They panicked as they didn't feel him at all, they didn't see that ant in that place at all, as if it appeared out of nowhere which made them more terrified.

Death.

Beru walked toward his king with a girl laying in his arms, seemed unconscious.

Once he reached his King and Master, he knelt down on one leg and presented the girl to him.

The man took the girl in his arms and looked at her, before his indifferent cold eyes turned gentle for a second, yeah a second because in the next moment it turned cold again before he looked at the woman who had empty eyes that turned dark and now filled with dark negative emotions and was falling.

Seeing her state, his eyes turned even more colder and a sudden pressure befell on the white robbed men making them kiss the ground in the next moment as the man directed his pressure to only them, but those who didn't experience it could still feel a terrifying aura and sinister presence..

Shuri who was falling into the darkness, felt a terrifying aura snapping her out of her state and looked at the source of that pressure with wide eyes.

Shocked.

"Kill them all in the worst ways possible." The man ordered with so cold and indifferent voice while slowly retracting his pressure making the group of white robbed men was felt like dying and couldn't breath, to breath slowly.

"As you wish, My Liege." Beru responded with pure respect and loyalty before standing up and looking back at the white robbed men with hostility that made them scream and sweat buckets of cold sweat that made their clothes reek with disgusting smell.

"Your existence is causing discomfort to my Liege,  so you will die, and according to my Liege's orders." Beru said with pure hostility as his mana was flaring up at incredible rate that if not for a certain barrier the man casted, every being in Japan, even the Shinto gods, would be alerted and come straight to this place to see what was happening and even a war could happen if they were hostile to the man, and it will not be in their favor.

Their fate had been sealed the moment they met that man, and now they are going to meet their end at the hand of one of the Shadow Monarch terrifying soldiers.

Beru.
