Chapter 1

Throughout my life, I had been to war, in this world that every little thing could cause a war, I got sick of it and started the plan to stop these things, I had built my own army, built my own city, we showed the world that we are not pushovers, but never would have I thought that my actions would the people declare as the leader.

But still, I continued, I and my brothers battled to fight, blood is spilled everywhere, our reckoning was near.

Killing for what our simple minds believing to be right

Sadly, we cannot see beyond our own blinded sight

These men are no different from the beasts of the forest

By battle seeking humans, they are called fourth

Overtaken by their own pride

Onto the bloody battlefield they ride

Destroying for what they see as chivalry

For this world freedom and liberty

Can't someone stop this massacre

Or will our humans souls be tainted darker

Until the final enemy dies

The human race will always Rise

It didn't take long before we defeated our enemies, I turned my head to my brothers, then I caught a glimpse of it, the battlefield, didn't we start this to end the war, why? why are there still innocents who die, My brothers also teared up on what I saw, after that battle we all went back to our city which we made as our haven, when we reached back we saw the people, happy, they all cheered for us.

I felt emotions inside me and then I stopped the ride, this caught the attention of many, then I spoke

"What is it that drives us on?

What makes us stand back up when our bodies are battered and bruised?

It is the knowledge that devoting every part of ourselves to fighting against despair is the duty given to those who are still alive, and the fact that doing so is the one and only way to honor those who have given their lives for humanity's victory.

Listen to the voices of those sleeping in the Earth.

Listen to the voices of those who met their end at sea.

Listen to the voices of those who lost to the sky.

...the time has come for their dying wish to become a reality

Young soldiers are about to set off on a journey

They will be carrying with them the wishes of those still here, and of those long gone, as they depart to face the enemy alone and without backup.

Whether history chooses to glorify them or not...we will remember them.

We will carve into our hearts the noble deeds of those who are not permitted to reveal even their names.

...young ones

Do not forgive us for being unable to teach you anything but fighting

Do not forgive our inability to avoid sending you onto the battlefield

...I pray that your act of bravery will form the cornerstone of a world where we no longer send such young men and women into battle."

Everyone cheered and the tears that came out of my eyes while I was doing the speech, I wiped it off, the years went by and I should say that the journey was a rocky one, There are most times that I thought of giving up but my brothers kept reminding me, "Before you think about giving up, think about the reason you started fighting in the first place.".

"Why did I started fighting for? wasn't it for peace? no, that was all my reasoning" I closed my eyes and started to think about the past "Yes, I started this to let people smile again", It took us a very long time until finally, the final enemy was in front of me, he was crying but I can't hear him, blinded by rage I said this "May God have mercy on you...because I won't.".

We have finally attained what we wanted, the whole world celebrated, and I was appointed as a leader, I rejected it at first but they kept pushing it to me, the people recognized me as a leader and they were more than happy for me to be the leader, being appointed as the leader, we came back on building the world back again.

Looking back I could see the war that had ruined this world, I can't help but feel emotional looking, it took us many years to finally build up this world, I became old and spent most of my time with my family, my old brothers had also left and the world prospered until it was finally my time before I died I said my last words "I took an oath to fight for peace... So did you... All of you...", and with those words I finally left.

The world mourned for my death and the last words I said became the pillar of the world, As for me right now I'm in a very dark room, and in front of me was a young man with red hair, he introduced himself as a God, I believed it, as I already died and no one else other than grim reaper and God, there was no one else who will meet me.

He had told me that because of my heroic deeds in my past life, I was gifted a chance to reincarnate, In from are 5 different things, God said that I have to choose one of this as my occupation, there Sect Master, King, Demon King, Hero, and Dungeon Lord, I don't know what is Sect Master and Dungeon Lord is but they sound cool, the demon king and hero were stories from our world.

I was also titled as a hero there, I asked the god what is Sect Master and Dungeon Lord, then he started explaining, first was Sect Master, The leader or founder of a sect. they rule their own lands and they were also teachers that raise their disciples, I got the gist of it and the next was Dungeon Lord, they were the lords who control their own dungeon, dungeons can be anything, from a tall building to a cave, their powers were to summon monsters to protect their dungeon.

I also got the gist of it, and decided to take the Hero role as I was already called one so why not? 5 stone pillars were in front of me, I walked closer to the pillar where the word "Hero" was engraved, just then I didn't notice the rock in front of me and stumbled, and fell down to the ground, I grabbed something to support my self, I raised my head and looked what's in front of me, my hand was leaning on the pillar where the word Dungeon Lord was written, it started shining, I turned my head to God, he smiled at me and said, "Good luck being a dungeon lord".

"Wait ple..." I haven't finished when everything turned dark, I opened my eyes and looked around, I was in a very dark room, I looked around and saw a crystal ball, I went close to it and reached out with my hand and then a female robotic voice suddenly sounded.

"Welcome Master"
