After years of living in the Divine Realm, Atlas and Morrigan travel to the Noble Realm in search of adventure. Ignorant of his past, Atlas is hunted by an enigmatic person, querying what his bloodline has to hold.

"General Sir." Penny says charging into Ironwoods office.
"*sigh* what is it Penny. I'm having issues with the council wanting to remove me." Ironwood replies looking up from his stack of papers and computer.
"My radar picked up a massive spot moving towards Atlas sir." Penny says
"Okay? So we should expect a blizzard?" General ironwood asks
"It's moving to fast for a standard storm. Jarvis says it's a flock of migrating Grimm. It just they seem to be attracted to mantel and Atlas." Penny answers as Ironwoods face begins to show a bit of panic.
"How big is this spot?" Ironwood says 
"3 miles in diameter." Penny says factually.
"And when will it arrive?" Ironwood says standing up already dialing winter's scroll.
"2 hours sir." Penny says turning around.
"Where are you going Penny?" Ironwood says as his desk scroll is shown dialing.
"To protect mantel of course. My father is there and I am the city's protector." Penny says with a smile leaving before ironwood can respond.
"Sir?" Winter says appearing on the holodeck.
"We have a grimm wave coming. Like vale except ours is bigger and flying." Ironwood says 
Winters eyes widen.
"How long?" Winter asks 
"Just under 2 hours. Call every Hunter that is out back. Evacuate people to bunkers we need the Paladins and the robots." Ironwood says
"On it sir." Winter says with a salute before disconnecting.
Ironwood then opens a compartment on his desk and presses a red button.
================
All through out atlas an air raid siren is heard.
"Warning incoming Grimm attack! Threat level ERROR!!!!!"
"That cannot be good." a citizen says before everyone is suddenly out of their shocked stupor and running around panicking.
=================
Meanwhile in a different world.
"Where is Harriet she isn't with the Dursley's." Albus says worriedly in his office pacing back and fourth a bit.
"Where did I put my lemon drops." Albus suddenly changes his concern completely.
Fawkes flys onto his desk and pushes a bowl of lemon drops over for Albus.
"Ah, there they are thank you Fawkes." Albus says 
"Albus did you take your whit sharpening potion?" Madam Pomfrey asks walking in. 
====================
"Quickly to the shelter!" An atlas hunter shouts directing civilians to a bunker.
Suddenly the sky goes dark over mantel and looking from atlas it is like watching a Tsunami wave approach the floating island.
"We are all going to die." The same atlas hunter says
=================
"Okay, we were wrong sorry." A man says on the scroll.
"It doesn't matter that you are wrong! I need to move the fleet now!" Ironwood shouts looking out of his window seeing the giant black cloud of Grimm flying towards the continent.
"Please, Ironwood we really are sorry." The man says
"Lives will be lost. They are on the council. I tried to mobilize the fleet 2 hours ago!" Ironwood shouts
"Maybe if you didn't go all crazy wasting resources to try and locate Stark we wouldn't have questioned your judgment!" He shouts back
==================
Meanwhile in a hangar.
"Warning all personal and pilots get to your ship! Enemy in airspace this is not a drill!" Is blaring on repeat over an intercom with a siren to it as well.
All throughout the several hangars hundreds of people can be seen running to different aircraft.
 Lining the walls of Mantel and atlas are Paladin's and Androids.
While hunters are hastily setting up anti air weapons with atlas engineers.
"It just keeps getting bigger." Another atlas hunter mutters looking at the cloud of Grimm approaching them.

Reincarnated into the World of Remnant. Let’s see where this take our gender bent protagonist. What adventures will happen. Will the fall of beacon be prevented? Can Salem be stopped? Is traveling worlds possible where will they end up next.

I wanna admit now this is my second ever book. At the start, I wasn't that good at keeping track of things like time there are times when I meant to jump months and it seems like its the next day. There are times when I mean to time skip years and it was only months. The first 7 chapters are there and a mess I am sorry about that, its been over a year since I have written them and I still do not know how to fix them.  Im really only keeping this book here because it is A End. It is gonna be my last fanfic when I finish it and I like to read it sometimes to see my own growth as a writer.

The weather outside was raining quite ferociously. Atlas,a young man,walked towards the window to watch the rain drops hit the road.He quietly thought to himself,"If one were to invent something so wonderful as to upgrade your genes what would it be?" Atlas had an idea to create a game called StarHaven.This game would turn the player into a spirit.The spirit would then have to fight creatures and other spirits to start to upgrade their real life genes.
                   
            Atlas then walked back to his bed to sleep and dream of what could happen. Suddenly a blasting noise came from nowhere and caused Atlas to wake up.When Atlas awoke he found out that he no longer had a body.As he soon came to realise what was happening a screen appeared in front of him. The screen stated,"Please choose your class and your bloodline."Atlas was confused to the point to where he nearly passed out.The screen showed 3 classes which were spirit,beast,or cloud. Atlas picked spirit cause he thought no one else would pick spirit cause it sounded less cool compared to the others.He then looked at the bloodlines,it showed 4 to choose from. The first was a dragon bloodline,"the dragon is the most noble beast to have been conquered.The bloodline includes birth with different sized wings, the colors vary,breathe fire,immune to fire,have scales once reached maturity." The next bloodline is fantasia,this bloodline is involved with birth of a unstable magical core inside your soul.The more unstable the core the  more power you have.This bloodline can also evolve into something unknown.Once reached maturity....all of a sudden the screen showed classified. Atlas was surprised that he couldn't see the next bloodline so he chose fantasia.

Atlas woke up to find himself in the world of StarHaven.A world full of spirits and creatures.He must upgrade his genes in order to live in this harsh world.

3rd POV

"Fight!" Ash declared.

"Riolu use Howl and Bone Rush after!" Shiro said as Riolu howled and it's attack went up and then two long bones appeared on each paws then dashed quickly to Pikachu.

Pikachu on the other hand used Quick Attack plus Iron Tail to retaliate. The two clashed and Riolu was sent flying and flipped mid air to land properly.
Seeing that Riolu got sent flying by just one attack from Pikachu, Shiro realised that Pikachu was strong, stronger than them. So he said to Riolu. 

"Riolu we can't fight head on, use Agility and run around Pikachu, then throw the bones from two different directions!" Riolu complied and used Agility and his speed went up, he then ran around Pikachu, threw the bones from two sides.

Pikachu looked from left and right and then jumped dodging the bones in the process. Shiro saw this as a opportunity and quickly said to Riolu.

"Use Aura Sphere now!" Ash was surprised by this and looked at Riolu as a golden ball of aura starts to converge on top of it's paws. Pikachu saw this and lightning starts to discharge from it's cheeks and used Thunder Bolt.

Ash readied Serperior to rescue the two Pokemons.

A small booming sound was generated when the two collided and a small cloud of smoke as well. Shiro gripped his hands tight and stared at the cloud of smoke, while Ash only stared at it.

When the smoke cloud was cleared Shiro as shocked as he saw that Pikachu was still standing properly without any wounds while Riolu was lying on the ground and trying to get up, only in the end to lie down.

"Pikachu wins!" Ash declared as he saw Pikachu run towards him and leapt to his shoulders. Ash already anticipated this out come and was about to comfort Shiro.

When he saw Shiro run towards Riolu and smiled.

"Looks like we're still weak partner... But, that doesn't mean we won't get stronger. Remember our promise? Haha! We'll go on an adventure, meet many friends and Pokemons, and we will fight toe to toe against those Legendaries one day! So let's not let this defeat back us down, let's treat this as a lesson and get stronger until we defeat those legendaries!" Shiro said as he helped Riolu up and fed him a very rare berry. Ash was surprised to hear those words from a child no older than ten. He watched and saw the resolve and determination in the eyes of Shiro and Riolu, he then wondered. 

'Is this the day of a new legendary trainer being born?'

Shiro then faced Ash and bowed deeply. Riolu also did the same.

"Thank you, for the fight. Even though we lost, one day! Me and my partner Riolu will beat you and your Pikachu!" Shiro smiled widely and said those words which put a smile on Ash's face.

"Alright little kid, but you gotta train a lot harder than that, and you gotta face a lot of trainer before you can get to my league. But! I'll be waiting kid." Ash rubbed Shiro's head and laughed.

"My name's Shiro! Shiro Hikari! Remember that!" Shiro said and ran off with Riolu following closely behind him. Ash stared at Shiro's back and smiled.

"Shiro huh, I'll remember that." As Ash was smiling, Pikachu who was looking at Riolu pulled Ash's shirt.

"Pikaaa." Ash looked at Pikachu curiously and then spotted something on Pikachu. Pikachu showed it to him and was shocked.

"You got injured?" Ash was shocked about the fact that, that Riolu actually was able to injure Pikachu although it's only a scratch.

"Also... Based on how he fought and gave instructions to Riolu. It's as if he was a experienced trainer who fought for a long time now." Ash touched his chin as tend to Pikachu. He then returned Serperior back to it's pokeball and walked back to Lavender Town. When he got there he saw Prof. Oak talking to a young lady about his age.

"Ah Ash you're back, so how was the kid?" Prof. Oak, seeing Ash come back asked about Shiro. While the young lady looked at Ash as well.

"Well... When Pikachu and I followed him, we found out that he is surrounded by a lot of Pokemon and was playing with him. I even saw a Tyranitar watching over them play. But what I am curious is the Riolu who is always following him. How come it's color scheme is a bit different than the usual? And it's eyes too is different!" Ash was really curious about what's different about this Riolu and if there are kinds like that out there.

"Oh you mean Shiro's Riolu? Well that Riolu is a very rare type of variation in a million of Riolus out here at Atlas.
We call them, Royalty Pokemons. Because of whenever they fight, they tend to release a majestic and king like aura around them. They are very strong like Shiny type Pokemons. But they all have one common move they all know. It's called King Sense. Whenever using this move, they will somehow, evolve if I had to say, only for a short amount of time. All of their stats will double and their attacks will strengthen. Shiro's Riolu is like that. To spot a Royalty Pokemon, you can either look at their eyes, or if they had a crown like tattoo on their foreheads." The young lady explained to them both and Ash was curious who is this lady.

"My name's Lilith Atlas by the way. Just call me Prof. Atlas or Lilith. I'm in charge of studying Royalty Type Pokemons and Shiro's Riolu is one of them." Lilith introduced herself to Ash and nodded to him.

"Well nice to meet'ya! I'm Ash, in the past, I used to go and fight every regions league champion. But now, I just help out Prof. Oak on his studies on various Pokemons." Ash said as he scratched his head and remembered how he go around regions fighting various trainers and meeting all kinds of Pokemons and Legendaries.

"So you're Ash, and this is your Pikachu huh." Lilith nodded and studied Pikachu who was on Ash's shoulder.

"Pika pikaa" Pikachu introduced himself like Ash. Which Lilith found amusing.

"Anyway, it seems like you guys are curious about the legendaries of our region right? Ill tell you about, come inside my Lab." Lilith then invited Ash and Prof. Oak inside and then they saw Shiro wearing a lab coat too big for him. 

"Shiro, what are you doing here?" Lilith asked as it seems like Shiro doesn't usually visit.

"Hm? I found this Pokemon on the way home and it followed me, then it won't go away." Shiro said and a Pokemon floated up behind him.

When Ash saw it, he remembered the time when he was in Unova region and saw a Elgyem like that one too.

"Elgyemmm...." Elgyem looked at them and suddenly darted to Shiro's chest and Shiro hugged it. Shiro tilted his head and stared at it for a bit. 

"Auntie Lilith can I have a pokeball?" Then Shiro looked at Lilith and asked. 

Lilith looked at Shiro who was tilting his head in a cute way. She couldn't help but think of who is the father of this child.

"Alright, but make sure to take of Riolu and this Elgyem alright?" Lilith said and hands a pokeball to Shiro, who nodded his head and stared at Elgyem again.

"Can I ask you to accompany me and travel the world with me? We will face a lot of dangers, so are you gonna be my Pokemon?" Shiro asked sincerely and solemnly the Elgyem who is staring at him ever since.

"Elgyemmm..." Elgyem nodded and Shiro smiled while he pushed the pokeball on Elgyem's forehead, and captured him in a few moments.

"Ill be going now Auntie! Bye bye!" Shiro went out the Lab to go home and waved them goodbye.

"Mhm." Lilith nodded and closed the door.

"How come that kid at times feels like a matured person, then in the second not?" Prof. Oak asked Lilith as she was more familiar with Shiro than them.

"Well, it's kinda like this. When it comes to Pokemon, he is very excited and childish. But whenever he goes and studies them or the subject not pertaining Pokemons, he gives the vibe of a adult. Which I found amusing and funny." Lilith answered and made some tea for Ash and Prof. Oak.

"So about the legendaries of Atlas. There are four of them. The one most commonly seen is, the one you guys tried to get close to. Its what we call the mini sun or region Pokemon. Because of how huge that guy is, the name of that guy is Regiodon. It actually has three types, Ground, Fire, and Flying. The next one is a bird, a very big bird because of it's wingspan. Right now it's under the oceans of Atlas. Once a decade it will come out of the water to bring rain to a certain island here at Atlas. We called this Pokemon a underwater emperor, as no other Pokemon underwater tried to angry this Pokemon. We named this one as Azurellion, Azurellion's types are Water, Ice, and Flying. Next up is the second most powerful legendary Atlas has, it's Arkhos. A tiger like Pokemon that has a black body, red lightning stripes patterns, and two huge wings. It lives at the east, in a mountain range we call Dark Thunder Mountain Range. Be careful of this one, unlike the other two's gentle personality. This one has a temper. It's types are Dark, Electric and Flying.

The last but not the least, and probably the most powerful one. Argunov. This Pokemon can be considered to be powerful enough... To go toe to toe against Arceus. But, it's only in the myths and rumors. It lives in the west, in an island surrounded by volcanoes, in the middle of the island stands a lonely white volcano. We people of Atlas call it, Argunov's Vulcan. She lives deep in the volcano, sleeping and waiting for something. Argunov is a white dragon looking Pokemon, she is always covered in pinkish white flames. It's type is Psychic, Fire, Dragon, and Flying. It's probably one of the Pokemons that has a lot of types."
Lilith explained everything about the four legendaries of the North, East, West, and South of Atlas.

Prof. Oak and Ash was shocked by this revelation, they have never thought there was a Pokemon capable of standing toe to toe against Arceus. How come they have never known this?

"You're probably thinking, how come you didn't know this don't you?" Ash and Prof. Oak scratched their head in unison after hearing this.

"Hahaha! Don't mind it, the reason is because of the fight between Arkhos and Argunov. In the history books, Atlas used to be in the middle of the world, but all of that changed when these four legendaries was born. Regiodon and Azurellion didn't fight as they are both gentle Pokemons and love peace. But that can't be said the same against Arkhos, he wanted to rule over Atlas. But Argunov, who is a peaceful and righteous Pokemon didn't let him. They fought for four days and four nights. When eventually they both used their ultimate moves which caused Regiodon and Azurellion to make their moves. They both helped Argunov in stopping Arkhos and made him stay in Dark Thunder Mountain range. Then seeing how devastated Atlas region is, Azurellion used his powers to cover Atlas in a huge bubble and Regiodon helped by making mist cover the whole bubble, while Argunov used his psychic powers to put illusions on those mist. Azurellion then pulled Atlas region out of the middle of the world to the side of Hoenn. And stayed there for decades until now." Lilith's explanation caused another shock to the two as they couldn't believe it. They never thought that there was actually a whole region in the middle of the world.

"How come you know a lot regarding Atlas's history Prof. Lilith?" Ash asked.

"Ah, you will know why if you ponder over my surname." Lilith answered as she combed her Espeon's fur.

"Lilith Atlas... Atlas? Wait, how come your surname is the same as the region?!" Prof. Oak asked shocked, while Ash too is shocked.

"Well... My great great great grandfather Winston Atlas was the one who discovered this place. When he came here, he stumbled upon a ancient palace, where four glowing orbs are placed. Red on top, Blue on the bottom, and Black and White respectively on east and west. In the middle there, was another orb. It has words under it, it said that." Whoever holds this orb, shall rule over this whole region. But beware of the Pokemon sealed in the black orb from the east. It will try and take this orb from you, with whatever it has...". And my great great great grandfather named the region, Atlas." Lilith said as she stares outside the Lab. Even though it's night time in Atlas, it's still bright because of the glow Regiodon was exuding.

"We never thought that Atlas has such history..." Ash muttered.

"By the way, Shiro's Riolu. Can I see it tomorrow?" Prof. Oak asked as he was curious to see a Royalty Pokemon.

"As long as Shiro allows it, sure. But let me remind you, Ash, and everyone not part of Atlas. Don't you dare try take Royalty Pokemons out of this region. That is... If you don't want to get chased by Azurellion and Regiodon. Those two protects the Pokemons and people of Atlas. Unless those Royalty Pokemon really likes you and Regiodon gave you it's permission. Don't try. Just don't." Lilith warned them. As she was a bit scared about Regiodon and Azurellion wrecking havoc just to prevent Royalty Pokemons from going out of the region.

"We'll keep that in mind and tell the others too. Well, we're going to rest now as it's night already. Tomorrow then Prof. Lilith." Ash said as he pulled Prof. Oak out of the Lab.

Lilith only watched them and then turned her head to Shiro's house.

"My little nephew, I'm afraid it's time for you to go out and adventure on your own. You need to find Argunov, you have to convince him. I'm afraid that, Arceus is having trouble, big trouble." Lilith muttered as she went back to her Lab and sleep.

Unknown to Lilith, Ash or everyone. Argunov who is lying asleep in Argunov's Vulcan opened it's eyes abruptly and lifts her head up. She then stared at the east, specifically Shiro's house. Reflected in her eyes is Shiro's figure sleeping and hugging Riolu, while Elgyem floated on top of his bed.

When suddenly, a violet crown adorned in gold jewels tattoo surfaced on Shiro's head and glowed brightly. Shiro then frowned as if he was in pain.

Argunov eyes suddenly shone and she focused on Shiro. Shiro then had a smile and his furrowed brows eased up. Argunov seeing this, release a small sigh of relief.

"It's about time for you to write your own destiny. Shiro D. Hikari..."

Have you ever wondered of what it feels like to travel around with a pokemon? 

Our MC, Shiro Hikari is your typical otaku and a game geek. He is one of the very top gamers out there but no one knew, as he hid his information. But he never stopped playing his favorite game of all. Pokemon.

He always wondered what it feels like to have a companion Pokemon and fight all kinds of trainers. He researched a lot on Pokemons and their traits.

Today is another typical day for Shiro D Hikari. As he proceed to the game store to buy the newly released version of Pokemon called Pokemon Darkverse Atlas. New region, but only four new Pokemon, which left a lot confused. All which is Legendary.

Just as our MC bought his game and celebrating over and over while walking home. He heard a screeching noise of rubber. And one name passed through his mind....

Truck-kun... 


That was all he remembered before he felt as if he was struck by a bulldozer and blacked out.

Conch returns to the pearl room and sees Zui looking at his trinkets around the room. She seemed very intrigued by everything in the room as she was very careful with what she touched. The pearl opened up and began pulsing heavily. It caught her attention and drew it toward conch floating by the door, stopping her from nosing around. His attention was drawn to the pearl. He slips towards it and lets it reveal an image. In the bubble, a group of soldiers were swimming nearby. Luckily, Coral was too far gone from the ship. Zui saw the soldiers in the bubble. One of the soldiers were in a different uniform guiding the rest to the gorge. The image fades.
Conch-
I take it they're looking for you?
Zui-
My family. They must have made it to Atlas.
Conch-
Then I guess you'll be fine heading there yourself while they're around.
Zui-
You're letting me go?
Conch-
You think I'm holding you hostage? Don't flatter yourself. I have no interest in merfolk. Go on, you're fine now, right? Once you're far enough from here, I need to get food. Just head straight in the direction the soldiers came from and you'll be fine.
Zui-
Wait. Why did you help me? I thought podulus were enemies of the merkingdom.
Conch-
That doesn't mean I can't have a conscience. Unlike my friend, I don't have a reason to hold a prejudice.
Zui-
Then, thank you. I am glad I was able to meet someone like you. 
Zui swims to the exit and stops.
Zui-
If we meet again, may I give you a gift as for your kindness?
Conch-
Pfft! That's a big if, lady. I don't want anything out of this. You wanna find me, that's on you.
Zui-
. . . I see. May I have your name?
Conch-
Why?
Zui-
In case I do see you again. I will know who I am grateful to.
Conch-
Mmm.... No. Don't get eaten on your way there.
Zui-
. . . . Thank you. Good bye.
Zui leaves the ship and swim for Atlas. The pearl glows dimly. A small question mark appears in the clouded bubble. Somehow, Conch knew what it was asking?
Conch-
Coral said to never trust any merfolk other than our own type. He and I so far are the only tentacle pods either uncaptured or still alive to roam. Since having more than one limb is like a sin in these waters, we keep a low profile from most occupied areas.
The pearl shows an image of Zui swimming.
Conch-
Like I told her; guilty conscience. It wouldn't matter if she told anyone since we'll most likely be gone before anyone finds us here. I'm not really worried.
The swimming Zui becomes a swimming Coral.
Conch-
He doesn't have to know about what happened. I don't want anything to get in the way of our plan. .... His wish.
The pearl shows the image of Atlas again.
Conch-
Okay, no. Stop showing me that. It's not happening. Ever. There's no way I can get in there anyway.
The pearl's bubble pops and the cloud fills the room and surrounds him. Conch panics in confusion. As the cloud clears quickly, Conch looks at the pearls new large bubble to find an image of him with his sand colored skin and brown hair with legs in front of him. He turns around and sees another lookalike with legs and the same merfolk features he has; like a fishman. He continues to turn and find one of him like a seaman; his human form with little fins on his legs and gills on his torso.
The last one he sees scares him the most. The image showed him with a mix of his own hair and his human skin. Instead of tentacles, he had a large, thick, spotted tail fin with a dorsal on the underbelly. The his fins were like Zui's. Large and nearly crystal clear. Conch looked at his body and saw the same tailfin replace his tentacles. Why hadn't he thought of this? The moment the question crossed his mind, he swept the cloud away in panic and returning to the original room. He looked back at his body and saw his tentacles again. He looked to the pearl. Its bubble was cloudy and light dim.
Conch-
No. . . . I can't. I can't do that. I won't do that! Not to him! I won't change what we already started, so stop it! I am not going to... to.... *sigh* just don't do that to me again. I don't want to break his heart. I can't lose my only friend. I don't care about it. I don't want it. What I wish doesn't matter. What I want is for him to be happy. Truly happy. And I will abandon that dream completely if that's what it takes. Please. Don't show me that again. No matter what I think of or ask for don't show me Atlas. And don't ever show me whatever that was again. Please?
The pearl shimmers dimly. Conch was almost close to tears. He takes a conch shell from the shelf in the room and leaves the ship to hunt. The pearl dims and closes.

Two best friends are on a wild adventure to leave their old life of being fugitives of the sea to being lawful humans on land. But one friend doesn't really want to leave the ocean while the other doesn't realize the severity of his wish to be human. how will these two compromise if their views of the of both worlds are so different?

The battle was near, the area was filled with fear. Cocytus had displayed the full night to of the skeleton warriors in a harrowing display of power while Atlas was away. The Lizardmen clearly saw that the skirmished that they had just gone through were pointless and would all end with one result. These results didn't mean anything now, only this battle matters now.

Atlas entered the field, wielding a black sword. The skeleton was clad in black armours that did not show a single feature of his. Atlas stood at the center of the field awaiting his opposition; a ragtag group of tribal warriors. With one skill Atlas could easily destroy their forces, but that would not be satisfactory.

The warriors were as weak as flies. Comparing them to skeletons that were of first level would make them seem like heroes, but in the face of Nazarick, they are nothing but trash. The lowest of the Pleiades could slaughter them without expending half of their strength and Atlas was no different. The Guardian Of The Necropolis would not lose to such a pitiful army of Lizardmen, this time he had planned against their cunningness.

The art of teamwork only worked if the combine power of the team was enough to destroy their opponent, but clearly this can no longer be applied. Atlas was simply too strong to take damage from such lowly creatures. 

The aura of the atmosphere turned dark as the Lizardmen started to feel the skeleton's crushing aura of despair. Not a single one of the Lizardmen could truly fight him without shaking even by the slightest bit. The warriors were all frightened but it didn't mean that they would surrender that easily. The warriors of the Lizardmen tribes gathered at the battlefield behind a set of two black pillars that Atlas had erected.

"I am Atlas, Vice-general of the forces of Nazarick. I will be your final opponent and the one to bring an end to this war."

"Lizardmen, My Lord has decided to conquer this domain. Resist as you would, but know that only death awaits you. Once you step through these black pillars, no one can save you from the wrath of Nazarick."

Atlas pointed his sword towards the group of Lizardmen that were huddled behind the pillars as they began to discuss their plan. After a minute, a group of the strongest Lizardmen warriors gathered right behind the pillars and crossed through, initiating their demise.

"Welcome to death's domain."

Atlas immediately summoned a cloud of pitch black clouds which covered the area in darkness. Everyone that was within the combat zone felt the darkness creep through the ground as it lingered in the area. The lizardmen were still able to see, but were scared out of their minds. Before them was a being that represented death; the grim reaper.

"Warriors of Lizardmen, you have chosen death! Let it be known, you died honourably and bravely. But death is death, I hope you become great brothers in death."

Atlas dashed into the large group of warriors, killing them all.

With the clouds passed, the battle came to an end. All that was left on the battle field were the corpses of the greatest warriors of each tribe. None were left standing as Atlas walked through the grim field. The Lizardmen could only watch in absolute shock as they found their comrades dead in only the confines of a minute, the battle was now over, they had lost.

Atlas moved towards the village with the body of one of the warriors.

"This Warrior was the only one that did not die in one strike, therefore, he was your greatest warrior." Atlas announced as he place the warm corpse on the ground.

It was none other than the lizardman that wielded the ice sword. Even with that strength, he was unable to fend off more than a couple of strikes from Atlas' secondary weapon.

"This is But a sliver of Nazarick's power."

*As an author, I have decided to give up on any ongoing fan fictions with the exception of my Overlord fan-fic. This is because I have come to a realisation that no matter what I do, this work relies on the work of others. I no longer feel much accomplishment in getting views or collections from these novels, so this is the end.

I am sorry if I disappointed anyone, but this work is average; you can find better stuff very easily.

This book will be update once a week since I genuinely enjoyed writing this book out of leisure.

For now, I am working on a magical realism book. Perhaps I will find satisfaction in building something completely new, I hope so.

A skeleton awakens in the reserve tomb Of Ainz Ooal Gown, a base which seems to be doing well on its own. The skeleton wakes up in the armor of a lowly skeleton warrior and is immediately assigned to work in the tomb. With the lich no where to be found, the skeleton must survive in a new and hostile world.

The story takes place in the anime world of Overlord.

The protagonist is a skeleton warrior.

The protagonist will not have their own unique system.

I do not own Overlord or the cover.

No harem.

Life sooned returned to its normal pace. Albert and Victoria both went to their high school after having skipped a day from their injuries and fever and the other kids started to attend primary school. Just like with Albert, the Cruz's had adopted them with ease and flawlessly integrated the new additions to the family. It was just that the house became a little more cramped and lively.

The night the kids first arrived, they shared a room together but now the twins along with Vin occupied that room. Victoria offered to share with Iris but she refused stating that she couldn't sleep without Atlas. Also, Vin volunteered to supervise them, suggesting that they'd get up to now good if left alone. Thus, it was only Ian left that didn't have a room. Naturally, the only option he had left was Albert's room. At first, Ian was very shy, but he was slowly coming to terms with it and opening up to Albert a bit more.

Albert also started his training to become stronger, the kids joining in as well. They mostly did basic things but the ever so weak Albert still found that tough. He was, after all, that one kid that never participated in sport class. He always used Victoria as an excuse to sit out. Anyhow, a few months of training passed and Albert was getting visibly more fit. He no longer ran out of breath after having ran 1 minute and could actually do push ups now. It was very good progress.

"What kind of house do you like?" Joan suddenly asked one day when the whole family had gathered in the living room to watch TV. Cain was also there, using his ability to help Victoria see. After doing this for half a year, he had developed the skill to make himself invisible like a ninja. You wouldn't know he was there even if you saw him. The poor guy also learnt to just not talk and be not there. It was very useful on stealth missions.

""A big one!"" As usual, the twins answered without thinking too much.

"I see, and how many rooms?"

""A lot!""

"Hmm, what kind?" Joan chuckled and asked.

""Uhh, a playing room and a swimming pool!"" After thinking some more, they raised their hands excitedly and added, ""Oh, oh, and a secret room! Like, underground or something that no one knows about!""

"I see, so like a secret lair or something." Joan nodded, taking note. Beside her, Kin was snacking on chocolate and was also nodding along. "How about the rest of you?"

"I would like a music room, Mother." Victoria stated. She had recently gotten really into music and thought it would be cool to just have a soundproof room full of instruments in the house. Of course, the grand piano in the middle was a must. Imagining herself sitting by her lonesome self in a room void of naught but a piano, glowing in the silver shine of the moon, playing an ethereal piece, Victoria almost squealed with excitement. How angelic must I look, she thought narcissitically.

Thinking that it was just a fun game of make believe, Vin also contributed. "A library would be nice." The house already had various bookshelves in different rooms, Albert's having the most with his books on plants and whatnot but the bookworm Vin still preferred a room entirely dedicated to reading.

"And Ian?" Joan inquired.

Albert turned to look at him and the silent Ian stared back. After a short minute of silent staring, Albert turned to Joan, "He wants a treehouse."

Albert gained a new ability, and that was somehow being able to understand Ian. Just staring into his eyes, he could understand what he wanted to say. It was mysterious and Albert couldn't really understand how but it really only worked with Ian.

""Treehouse!"" The twins echoed with sparkly eyes.

"And you, Albert?" Kin asked.

"A big garden with a greenhouse?" Albert answered.

Kin and Joan nodded, "Then we'll be sure to include it in the plan."

"We're moving again?" Victoria inquired.

Joan nodded, "Yes, your Father was given a rather big piece of land recently so we thought we'd build a new house there and move into it."

"So we're going to have a music room?"

"Mhm"

"Great! I'm going to make Albert learn how to play and play for me."

"Why don't you learn yourself?" Albert grumbled.

"That's obviously too much effort."

"I wanna learn together with big sis!" Iris exclaimed.

"Then let's learn together." Victoria did a 180 and smiled nicely at Iris, agreeing amicably to her request. For some odd reason, Victoria was much nicer to the younger kids and not to Albert. She treated him like a servant and pampered the rest of them.

The family spent some more time discussing the house and the plans for gradually got more and more outrageous. The twins suggested things such as rollercoasters and entire theme parks, movie theaters, water slides and jumping castles. Worst thing was Kin nodded to all of them, his face displaying full resolve to fulfill the wishes of his beloved children.

"Would we have to change schools?" Albert couldn't help but to inquire.

"It's quite far from here but it would take awhile for the house to be built so don't worry about it for now."

Albert nodded. He finally made some friends so it was kind of a shame but thinking that he could easily make more he didn't care too much about it. Victoria never cared from the start, having the mindset that wherever she went, people would pamper and worship her very existence.

"The new house is going to be so much fun!" Atlas imagined a big palace full of intriguing and dangerous contraptions and the demon king(Kin) that lived on the highest floor. It would surely be interesting to explore. Even a few days after the conversation, he was dreaming of a different house each day. Each equally as grand and strange as the first.

Humming as he walked to the pickup spot close by their primary school, Atlas noticed a furry little butt in a hedge nearby. "Hmm? Look at that, Iris."

"What is it?" Iris' eyes locked onto the short and poofy tail.

As the twins approached the unknown animal stuck in the hedge, Vin grabbed onto their backpacks and prevented them from going further. "What do you think you're doing?"

"Argh, let go of us, Meanie Vin. The fluffy fluff is stuck in the bush!" Iris complained.

"Don't you feel sorry for it?" Atlas echoed.

"..." Ian was silent as always but his eyes seemed to convey the very same message.

Vin sighed and relented to the silent pressure of the three puppy eyes directed at him. He let go of the struggling twins and they dashed to the poor critter in the hedge. Pulling the tail and legs roughly, they yoinked the thing out.

"Hahhahaha, what is that?" Iris laughed upon seeing the whole body of the animal. It was a round fluffy cloud looking thing, with sky-blue eyes and triangle eyes on top of its head. Its stubby legs were barely visible under all the fluff.

"It's a rabbit!!!" Atlas cheered as he hugged the ball of floof, his face sinking into the strangely wool-like fur. Then, without even thinking twice, Atlas used his ability and transformed into the weird rabbit hybrid thing. They both fell to the ground with a soft poof, their thick coats softening the fall.

For awhile, the two identical fluff balls went back and forth, seemingly conversing to one another in silence. It was strikingly alike how Albert and Ian communicated.

"God dang idiot!" Vin cursed, picking up Atlas' school uniform and backpack.

"Dumb Vin, Atlas said the rabbit wants to come home with us!" Iris was nodding at one of the rabbits and reported back what had just been exchanged. Somehow she understood what Atlas said even as a rabbit like she had telepathy or something.

"We can't take it home with us." Vin sternly rejected.

"But it's so cute."

"No means no."

"Vin~!"

"...Fine! It's not my fault if Mother and Father says no." Vin stormed ahead of the group to the direction of the car while the others cheered with joy. Iris quickly picked up her brother while Ian picked up the strange rabbit. Then, together they got into the car. 

Once in the car, Atlas transformed back in his glorious nudity. Snuggling against the rabbit, he declared, "Your name is Cloud!"

The child was bruised, scarred and injured. His eyes lacked the innocence of a child but flickered with hatred. Albert was finally going to be free and his captor was finally going to die. But the one that rescued him is a...villain?

The rest of the trip was uneventful. During their stops, Giovanni would occasionally shoot bird formations with blasts of dark energy, finding that the birds themselves would disappear into a purple haze. Though, at the same time, he was trying to figure the right pace at which he wouldn't lose too much energy, not wanting to faint mid-battle. Once they were in the air, Giovanni pulled out his surprisingly-dry phone to not only route Kevin's path but to check the time as well.
"Hmm, with minimal stops, we should be able to reach the mountain before nightfall," he thought. The doctor gazed ahead; nothing but an endless blue mixed with the occasional oblong green that almost faded out of existence. He glanced around, finding Roxy asleep with her neck uncomfortably contorted against the glass dome, her drool traveling down the side. Atlas had apparently retracted back into the doctor's shadow, seeing his own silhouette sitting on top of the dome. 
"You'll be keeping watch?" the doctor asked him.
"Yeah sure, beats sleeping the entire trip," Atlas answered. Finding no other way to pass the time (and due to his loss of energy from shooting), Giovanni decided to take a nap as well. He patted the back of his mechanical pet.
"Will you be okay with me sleeping for a bit, Kevin?" he asked his brass companion. In response, Kevin blew steam and cooed a rustic tune. The doctor chuckled, closed his eyes, and allowed his body to flop onto the brass back. 
Giovanni quickly felt something press onto his stomach. He opened his eyes and raised his head to find Veronica looking at him with tired eyes and slowly wagging her tail. He noticed the small fume of purple smoke escaping her mouth, like dry ice.
"Did you overexert yourself?" Giovanni asked. The demoness drowsily nodded her head with a groan. 
"Are...are you okay with this?" she asked. Giovanni sighed and nodded his head. The two then fell asleep, with Veronica's wings blocking the light of the sun. 

⛧ �� ⛧

Giovanni woke up to find the entire group inside a field of endless white. It reminded him of his room when he was first recruited. It made his heart pound like a hammer. He quickly brushed it off, gulping and clenching his fists. 
"Atlas, did we fly through a cloud?" the doctor asked. 
His shadow shrugged in response. "Yeah, like, 30 minutes ago." Giovanni gently pushed Veronica off his stomach so he could get a better view. The fog was so dense, he couldn't tell if Kevin was even flapping his wings or not. He ordered Kevin to lift the dome and to suspend himself. Once Kevin obeyed his command, Giovanni found the air to be dry and cold. He knew that flying through clouds would either cause the air to be dreadfully humid, or to drench the doctor in cold water. 
"Have any of you heard from Cockatrice yet?" Everyone shook their heads in response. Giovanni outstretched Casanova into the foggy depths. 
"Cockatrice: ritorna da me!" he shouted, causing the snakehead to glow a bright yellow. Giovanni waited for a few moments, tapping his toe in anticipation. He shouted his command once more, pacing the body of his bird fidgeting around by twirling the cane. 
"Hey, Gio?" Roxy asked. "How long does it usually take for it to—"
"It should be back by now!" Giovanni yelled. He called out for Cockatrice once more, but nothing.
"Kevin, ascend, we need to get out of here." The bird did as he was commanded, beginning to flap his wings to increase his altitude. 
Clang!
Giovanni slowly turned toward the group. 
"What the hell was that?" Atlas shrugged in response.
Clang!
 Giovanni looked at Veronica,
"You better not be doing that shit with your knives!" Veronica looked offended.
"Oh don't put this on me!" she said with her tail straightening like a needle. "Why are you so quick to point fingers?"
"I'm just pointing fingers at the only sadist paraphile with a piquerism!" Veronica stood up and pointed a knuckle-full of knives at the doctor.
"Don't you start that shit with me! Everyone—and I mean—everyone in Hell has seen that disgusting shit you do for the Mafia!"
"You little—"
Clunk!
The two looked to the side, finding a large, slimy snail with a rocky light-blue shell. The snail was pure white and on the side of its shell was a number three that glowed an ominous aura. Roxy quickly backed away, nearly falling off Kevin.
"What the hell is that?" Roxy asked. Giovanni took out Casanova, unsheathing the rapier and thrusting the tip into the bottom of the snail, leveraging his body on the cane. With a few tries, the snail flew off Kevin with a wet schlorp! Atlas shadow-grabbed the snail, holding it upside-down.
"This," the doctor said, "this is an Acedia, a creature comprised of the sin, Sloth." Giovanni eyed the Peccatora as it sprouted a pair of dragonfly wings and attempted to fly away. 
"Strange, you usually find them on the streets of bustling cities and towns. Crimson Corp hasn't reported any sightings of flying Acedia before…" he trailed off, putting the pieces together. At the same time, Atlas and Roxy both looked over Kevin's side. 
"Guys," Roxy said with a crack in her voice. "I think ya'll may want to see this!" Giovanni came over to the vixen's side, finding multiple Acedia of various sizes latched onto his side, like barnacles on a ship's hull. At that time, Kevin began to droop to the side, causing Roxy to nearly fall off his wing. At the last moment, Roxy grabbed the inside of one of Kevin's plates, and Atlas reluctantly lifted her up by her shadow. Veronica was able to violently flutter her wings, in order to keep Giovanni from plummeting into the ocean. 
As Kevin slowly stabilized himself, the doctor took out his mechanical eye, attached it to the rope he packed, and threw it overboard. To everyone's dismay, Giovanni reached into his empty socket, feeling for a switch amidst the sounds of squishing flesh. In just a moment, Giovanni fingered the switch inside his socket, activating what he named his wireless optical sensor. In a couple of seconds, he was able to see out of both eyes, seeing a route of at least 50 of the rocky azure snails clung to the belly of the mechanical avian, each with a number on its shell ranging from five to ten. As soon as the doctor yanked his eye back up, Kevin began to droop downward, desperately trying to flap his heavy wings.
Giovanni violently cursed in Italian as a raging hailstorm of Acedia began to assault Kevin. Before any of them were able to make contact with the group aboard, the brass bird involuntarily activated the glass dome, shielding them from the onslaught. 
"Motherfu—piece of—" Giovanni began cursing violently in Italian, trying to activate any of Kevin's defenses. As if given an order from a hive mind, after a few Acedia stuck to the glass, many more of them began to crash onto the dome with their shells, bashing and cracking the glass. Veronica placed a portal outside of the dome, trying to peel the Peccatora off with her knives. In order to reduce Kevin's energy loss, Atlas began to shadow-pick the snails off of his underbelly, being able to clean the bird's underside and joining Veronica's efforts on top.
Giovanni readied Casanova in its khopesh form, focusing on the weakest spots. Roxy simply froze. She frequently glanced at every crack in the dome, panting heavily. As the dome finally gave in, so did Kevin's flight; and he began to dive toward wherever gravity would take him. With a mechanical groan, Kevin began to unload all of his arsenals from his body, ejecting ammo belts and launchers. 
Roxy was the first out of the group to be struck by the Acedia. After one of the larger snails stuck to her head, she staggered and fell off the bird, but was caught once more by Atlas. However, the Acedia began to land directly on the shadow, vacuuming the darkness into their bodies. Giovanni constantly batted and swiped the snails away from him. After moments of Kevin gaining more and more speed, and the Acedia piling on the group, the bird finally flew out of the cloud. At the same time, Atlas and Roxy fell off, plummeting toward the green field below them. Giovanni looked up, finding them to be near the very mountain that they were trying to reach.
As a last resort, Giovanni retracted Casanova, aiming at Kevin's back with the tip of the cane. 
"Casanova: Artemis Quickshot!" The doctor ordered on a whim. Casanova began unleashing torrents of dark energy. The waves of darkness surged through the entire storm of Peccatora, which caused the horde to fall off; however, the damage was already done. Giovanni's entire body felt weak, and his vision began to blur.
"Almost...there…"

World War II, a war of humanity and the gods themselves. Come the war's end and the world had split into three factions: the Realm of Light, with angels and gods of divinity; the Spectator Faction, inhabited by indifferent humans and creatures that have other pressing matters at hand; and the Black Empire, the realm of demons, deities of death, and the criminal underworld. Life went on this for nearly a century, with people devoting their lives to divinities, or recruited by the Archdemons.

And Dr. Giovanni Capello takes great pleasure in his work for the empress.

But when given a task of finding a powerful relic for Her Darkness, Giovanni encounters ghosts from his past, and is forced to reopen old wounds. 

Wounds that were fused shut with puss and tar.

I first witnessed the extent of Human creativity during the defense of Kalios. the Xen'thic hive swarms were to attack this world next. Growing desperate to stop the horde, we issued a call for aid to every species in the Alliance. The Human Empire responded much as other races did, with the majority of their military navy joining us in orbit above the planet, along with the smaller, more haphazard civilian volunteers they brought along with them. Most were mercenary ships or even pirates, the Human's own navy had already retrofitted many of the cargo freighters as carrier ships, a few crazy captains had turned their vessels into fire-ships. I was a Communications Officer on the lead ship of a Narleth Assault Dreadnought formation, the Bringer of Swift Death. I remember well the civilian ship that had been assigned to our squadron, the Superheavy-freighter Atlas and her Captain. The Atlas was a massive ship, even larger than some of our own, a full 5 Hetras in length.

My Captain was annoyed, why did we have to get weighed with such an ugly burden? His anger was tempered though by the words of his Commander that the Atlas would at the very least absorbed some shots that would otherwise damage our ships. My Captain, not even bothering to discover the Atlas's armament, had her move into formation above of our own vessel. We would find out what sort of weaponry she had soon enough, as the great enemy's fleet had been detected at the edge of the system. Things gained a new haste as we maneuvered into position. I kept a close eye on our new ally as my Captain commanded, watching on the display screen as the Atlas's cargo door partially opened and racks, loaded with what looked like small rockets were extended. "So that's how she's armed?" I thought to myself.

When we were ordered to attack, I would find out just how heavily she was armed. We began our approach, the Captain of the Atlas surprised us with his discipline, he hadn't issued the order to fire yet. When we hit weapons range the order was given to fire. Our highly trained weapon crews were pouring pinpoint laser fire into the approaching enemy fleet, before they could get the first shot back at us. It was when the enemy fire was impacting on our shields that we saw the distorted cloud of fire that came from above our ship. At first I thought that the Atlas had been destroyed, but it wasn't so. As I watched on, the screens indicated she was surrounded by a storm of fire, the streaking fire of rocket exhaust.

She was launching her payload like nothing I had ever seen, we Narleth prefer to fight with Laser batteries. What I thought were launch racks were more like ramps, acting to guide the rockets as the Atlas's Captain simply dumped them into space. Then their engines fires; sending them streaking toward the enemy. Not two or three at a time like our own massive anti-ship missiles, but in their thousands. A never-ending swarm of explosive death was spat towards the enemy, in a way that I had never dreamt possible. Any enemy ship that made the mistake of getting in the way of the Atlas were quickly ground to nothing but debris as thousands of rocket hits took their toll. The constant bombardment rapidly dropped the enemy ships and smashed entire bomber waves, however the smaller missiles were not so effective against the heavily armored shells of the enemy capital ships. While the Atlas had a few capital ship kills to her name, it took tens of thousands of hits to achieve one. We quickly learned of a much more effective means of destruction. We were to follow in close formation with the Atlas until the missile hits had caused a shield breach somewhere, at which point our own laser batteries would exploit the rift, destroying enemy quicker than we could have done without her support

It turns out the Captain of the Atlas had been offloading a shipment at an old military station when the call for aid was sent. He had been a gunnery officer in the Human navy, and knew of some depots storing old and now outdated orbital attack munitions, something that was left behind when the Empire's military mobilized to our aid. Using some contacts, he had quickly jumped from station to station, filling his holds and turning his ship into an improvised missile boat, with a staggering amount of ammunitions. That day he came to our aid armed with 4,030,020 ground attack missiles, when we limped home victorious that night her hold was empty. Now I am gladder than ever we are an ally of the Humans as I witness the launching of their new Atlas class Missile Attack Dreadnaught.

[Earth's Prohibition: An enemy you strike will have all of their supernatural abilities sealed away, 1 minute duration]
 
As soon as the orange cat used this technique, he also transformed back into Gu Qing Shan.
 
He then struck the monster using his metal gauntlets with all his strength.
 
Elemental Frost fist technique, [Frost Freeze]!
 
The frost spread from the gauntlet onto the monster's body with extreme speed, quickly forming a glittering block of ice.
 
The Judge of Living Beings' Fate was frozen within the ice crystal, just like an insect in amber.
 
It tried to struggle.
 
Bam!
 
Gu Qing Shan threw another punch towards the ice crystal.
 
[Ethereal – Grand Mountain]!
 
 The Judge of Living Beings' Fate instantly became motionless.
 
In the next 10 breaths worth of time, it had no thoughts.
 
Asura Gu Qing Shan stood with his arms crossed on one side and asked: "This guy's supernatural abilities, movements, and even thoughts have all been restrained, so why do I still feel like you're still a bit nervous?"
 
Gu Qing Shan took a deep breath and replied: "Without being able to use my swords, I just feel a bit anxious"
 
Asura Gu Qing Shan thought briefly, then held his sword, asking: "You want me to do it?"
 
"No need"
 
Saying so, Gu Qing Shan's body became clad in a faint yellow glow.
 
Samsara derivative power!
 
He lightly threw a single punch towards the ice crystal.
 
[Ethereal – No Pardon]--------
 
A fist technique to destroy everything!
 
Tangible or intangible, illusory or real, all things, all living beings, everything shall shatter in front of this punch and return to Primal Chaos.
 
The entire blue ice crystal shattered into glittering bits of ice, slowly scattering into the darkness like fireflies at night.
 
Within the ice crystal, the Judge of Living Beings' Fate stared intensely forward.
 
Its gaze was full of confusion but it seemed to have realized that death was approaching.
 
However, that didn't matter, as the power of the Earth God had stripped away all of its chance to retaliate.
 
It scattered with the ice, returned to Primal Chaos, no longer to be seen ever again.
 
"What excellent fist technique. I never thought I'd be able to wield power other than swordsmanship" Asura Gu Qing Shan said.
 
"Is your soul not released?" Gu Qing Shan asked.
 
"Soul release? What's that?" Asura Gu Qing Shan asked.
 
"Wait a moment-----"
 
Saying so, Gu Qing Shan turned to the void of space to read the lines of quickly manifesting glowing text.
 
[You've eliminated the Judge of Living Beings' Fate]
[Note: This is originally an impossible task, but the other party was only 5/1000 as strong as itself during its peak; furthermore, all of its supernatural abilities were sealed by your Earth God power, unable to utilize any defensive technique, thus you were able to accomplish this slaying]
[As stated above, it did not exert any means to protect itself before death, so the Soul Points you had to spend for Ethereal was kept to a minimum]
[You expended 100 million Soul Points]
 
Gu Qing Shan asked in confusion: "I still don't understand. I clearly used the Samsara's power, so why did I have to spend Soul Points?"
 
The War God UI replied: [That power was converted from your Soul Points------- you didn't really think the Samsara derivative power would just manifest out of thin air, did you?]
 
Gu Qing Shan changed his point of attention and asked: "If I wanted to unleash the two latter strikes of [Ethereal], would I be able to do it through Soul Points as well?"
 
[It is possible, but the Soul Points consumption will be quite considerable. You must prepare yourself mentally] the War God UI replied.
 
New lines of glowing text appeared:
 
[You've eliminated the Judge of Living Beings' Soul, obtaining 300 million Soul Points]
[The path of Void War God had moved onto the next phase:]
[You must reach the second void monster: Matriarch of Myriad Earths]
[Attention, this is a sovereign among void monsters, the nemesis of the Earth Pillar God of the void. If it did not enter this great tomb, it would have continued to remain locked in an eternal war against the Earth God in the space vortex]
[Eliminate it]
 
The lines of glowing text then disappeared from Gu Qing Shan's vision.
 
Gu Qing Shan sighed.
 
Both the Judge of Living Beings' Fate and the Matriarch of Myriad Earths are ridiculously overpowered monsters.
The only mistake they made was to enter this tomb.
Otherwise, with my strength, it would have been impossible to kill them.
Then.
What kind of power would a 'War God' Title that requires me to kill five of such monsters provide?
[Void War God]
What a curious thing indeed.
 
He slowly regained his senses and turned to Asura Gu Qing Shan.
 
The other party was still waiting for him and smiled amicably: "Reading the [Order] combat synopsis?"
 
"Yeah" Gu Qing Shan replied.
 
After a bit of thought, he then explained to the other party what soul release meant.
 
Asura Gu Qing Shan fell into thought and muttered: "Call of the Bramble Bird? I have heard of that event. The young girl called Laura is still the current Bramble Bird Empress, but only a puppet empress"
 
Gu Qing Shan furrowed his eyebrows and asked: "Who is she the puppet of?"
 
"Triste------ I heard that it was her who's now behind the Empress, currently acting as the Bramble Bird Kingdom's prime minister" Asura Gu Qing Shan replied.
 
Gu Qing Shan doubtfully asked: "Why didn't you participate in the Call of the Bramble Bird?"
 
"Because Zhi Luo died" Asura Gu Qing Shan replied.
 
"What!?" Gu Qing Shan exclaimed in shock.
 
A hint of sorrow flashed through Asura Gu Qing Shan's eyes before he explained: "She was an Asura girl. After the battle of Huang Quan, she took over the body of a dead human woman and returned to life"
"She then followed me into a war of infinite worlds"
"During one of our battles, to protect me, she became heavily injured"
 
Gu Qing Shan instantly asked: "What about her soul?"
 
"Her soul also became heavily injured, the only method to save her was to send her into the Forgetting River------- the water of the Forgetting River has the property of being able to heal all wounds of the soul, the price being that they would forget everything" Asura Gu Qing Shan replied.
 
Forgetting everything.
 
That means, she would no longer remember 'Gu Qing Shan'.
 
Gu Qing Shan's thoughts turned a bit, then asked: "Then, she once again entered reincarnation?"
 
"That's right, I asked for the Forgetting River Soul Flaying Hook's help, so she should have once again reincarnated into the Asura realm"
 
"Even so, she would not remember you" Gu Qing Shan said.
 
Asura Gu Qing Shan continued: "That's why, I took [Chaos] upon myself and entered the Asura realm, climbing step by step to become the Asura King of several Asura realm fragments"
 
"Why did you have to do such a thing?" Gu Qing Shan asked.
 
"To become an Asura Deific King------- legends had it that the Asura Deific King has a unique Thaumaturgy to awaken the past life memories of every Asura, allowing them to regain the wisdom of all their lives up to now"
 
"No wonder you entered the path of Asura, so it was because of this" Gu Qing Shan sighed.
 
At this point, he really couldn't help but feel emotional about the grandness and unpredictability of fate.
 
At certain crossroads of history, each individual makes their own choices that would forever alter their paths in drastically different ways.
 
Gu Qing Shan then clenched his fists.
 
"I have a favor to ask of you" he said.
 
"What is it?" Asura Gu Qing Shan asked.
 
"Save Laura" Gu Qing Shan replied.
 
Asura Gu Qing Shan observed him for a long time, then finally said: "The Bramble Bird Kingdom is currently the base of the [Demon King Order]. Even if I am an Asura King, it would still be quite troublesome to fight against the entire [Demon King Order] itself"
 
 Gu Qing Shan insisted: "You must save her, because she is related to many crucial events, like the Great Bramble Tree, the three coins of Space and Time, not to mention her relations to the Dusty World. Furthermore, the [Demon King Order] actually belongs to the side of [Chaos]"
 
"Hm? Why haven't I heard of anything you just mentioned?" Asura Gu Qing Shan asked.
 
Gu Qing Shan then explained everything to him.
 
"Do you care a lot about that little girl?" Asura Gu Qing Shan asked.
 
"That's right. Her fate is one of extreme tragedy, I don't want her to have to live such a life, not even in a parallel world" Gu Qing Shan replied.
 
Asura Gu Qing Shan seemed hesitant: "It will be a great war… I will most likely have to utilize all of my forces…"
 
Gu Qing Shan continued: "This matter isn't simply related to the fact that she is the Empress, the Master of Wealth, or the envoy of the Great Bramble Tree. Even if she doesn't have any of those identities and is only a normal girl, we must still save her"
 
"But why?" Asura Gu Qing Shan asked.
 
Gu Qing Shan replied: "If one day, all the Apocalypses are over, when you and I can finally live a normal life and have a daughter of our own, she would most likely be the same as her"
"For the sake of your daughter's smile, you would surely exert all of your efforts, even if it is to slaughter or to fight, wouldn't you?"
 
Asura Gu Qing Shan fell silent.
 
A few moments later.
 
He took out something and gave it to Gu Qing Shan.
 
It was the Nine Serenity Yin Incantation Jade Tablet.
 
"Temporarily keep this for me, the range of this item is the entire great tomb itself, when I return, give it back to me" Asura Gu Qing Shan said.
 
Gu Qing Shan took the jade tablet and said in a sincere tone: "Thank you"
 
"No need, I'm not saving her because of you, but merely because I found out about this" Asura Gu Qing Shan replied.
 
"Alright. Go, leave this place to me"
 
The two Gu Qing Shan looked at each other and grinned.
 
Asura Gu Qing Shan turned around, heading into the dark void.
 
"War. That is where my sword points, an inevitable conquest for the sake of protection…"
 
He lightly muttered as his figure faded away, disappearing from this world.
 
He had left.
 
------left to save Laura from the parallel world.
 
Gu Qing Shan put the jade tablet into his bag.
 
He was now standing alone in the middle of a vast graveyard.
 
Countless monsters crawled out from their tombs, gradually surrounding him.
 
Gu Qing Shan clenched his fist tightly and looked at the surrounding monsters.
 
"Ah, quite a few of them here… I remember there was a fist technique where I descended from above…"
 
His figure slightly shifted and shot up into the sky.
…
At another location.
 
Above the River of Time.
 
Within a gently drifting Temporal Oasis.
 
-------the world of the Spire.
 
Laura sat in her room, silently holding onto a long purple twine.
 
The Twine of Cloud Atlas.
 
She possessed another Twine of Cloud Atlas!
 
Perhaps…
 
This one was the other half of the first Twine of Cloud Atlas.
 
A voice resounded through the restraints of Space and Time, emerging from the Twine of Cloud Atlas:
 
"You must save her…"
"This matter isn't simply related to the fact that she is the Empress, the Master of Wealth, or the envoy of the Great Bramble Tree. Even if she doesn't have any of those identities and is only a normal girl, we must still save her"
"If one day, all the Apocalypses are over, when you and I can finally live a normal life and have a daughter of our own, she would most likely be the same as her"
"For the sake of your daughter's smile, you would surely exert all of your efforts, even if it is to slaughter or to fight, wouldn't you?"
 
Gu Qing Shan's sincere voice sounded from the Twine of Cloud Atlas.
 
Laura silently listened, eventually lowering her head and wiping the tears off her face.
 
"Gu Qing Shan…"
"Qing Shan…"
 
She was sobbing full of emotions.


The end of all worlds approach.
The Demon King Order harvests lives from all manners of living beings.
Within this darkness full of despair, a single person bypassed Space-time and returned to before the world collapsed, determined to change the fate of the past.
But as time went by, he gradually found that the Apocalypse isn’t quite as simple as he thought…
