the Story is rough cause it's infact the first Novel I've ever written

The First Census of Israel

1 Now the Lord spoke to Moses in the Wilderness of Sinai, in the tabernacle of meeting, on the first day of the second month, in the second year after they had come out of the land of Egypt, saying: 2 "Take a census of all the congregation of the children of Israel, by their families, by their fathers' houses, according to the number of names, every male individually, 3 from twenty years old and above—all who are able to go to war in Israel. You and Aaron shall number them by their armies. 4 And with you there shall be a man from every tribe, each one the head of his father's house.
5 "These are the names of the men who shall stand with you: from Reuben, Elizur the son of Shedeur; 6 from Simeon, Shelumiel the son of Zurishaddai; 7 from Judah, Nahshon the son of Amminadab; 8 from Issachar, Nethanel the son of Zuar; 9 from Zebulun, Eliab the son of Helon; 10 from the sons of Joseph: from Ephraim, Elishama the son of Ammihud; from Manasseh, Gamaliel the son of Pedahzur; 11 from Benjamin, Abidan the son of Gideoni; 12 from Dan, Ahiezer the son of Ammishaddai; 13 from Asher, Pagiel the son of Ocran; 14 from Gad, Eliasaph the son of Deuel; 15 from Naphtali, Ahira the son of Enan." 16 These were chosen from the congregation, leaders of their fathers' tribes, heads of the divisions in Israel.
17 Then Moses and Aaron took these men who had been mentioned by name, 18 and they assembled all the congregation together on the first day of the second month; and they recited their ancestry by families, by their fathers' houses, according to the number of names, from twenty years old and above, each one individually. 19 As the Lord commanded Moses, so he numbered them in the Wilderness of Sinai.
20 Now the children of Reuben, Israel's oldest son, their genealogies by their families, by their fathers' house, according to the number of names, every male individually, from twenty years old and above, all who were able to go to war: 21 those who were numbered of the tribe of Reuben were forty-six thousand five hundred.
22 From the children of Simeon, their genealogies by their families, by their fathers' house, of those who were numbered, according to the number of names, every male individually, from twenty years old and above, all who were able to go to war: 23 those who were numbered of the tribe of Simeon were fifty-nine thousand three hundred.
24 From the children of Gad, their genealogies by their families, by their fathers' house, according to the number of names, from twenty years old and above, all who were able to go to war: 25 those who were numbered of the tribe of Gad were forty-five thousand six hundred and fifty.
26 From the children of Judah, their genealogies by their families, by their fathers' house, according to the number of names, from twenty years old and above, all who were able to go to war: 27 those who were numbered of the tribe of Judah were seventy-four thousand six hundred.
28 From the children of Issachar, their genealogies by their families, by their fathers' house, according to the number of names, from twenty years old and above, all who were able to go to war: 29 those who were numbered of the tribe of Issachar were fifty-four thousand four hundred.
30 From the children of Zebulun, their genealogies by their families, by their fathers' house, according to the number of names, from twenty years old and above, all who were able to go to war: 31 those who were numbered of the tribe of Zebulun were fifty-seven thousand four hundred.
32 From the sons of Joseph, the children of Ephraim, their genealogies by their families, by their fathers' house, according to the number of names, from twenty years old and above, all who were able to go to war: 33 those who were numbered of the tribe of Ephraim were forty thousand five hundred.
34 From the children of Manasseh, their genealogies by their families, by their fathers' house, according to the number of names, from twenty years old and above, all who were able to go to war: 35 those who were numbered of the tribe of Manasseh were thirty-two thousand two hundred.
36 From the children of Benjamin, their genealogies by their families, by their fathers' house, according to the number of names, from twenty years old and above, all who were able to go to war: 37 those who were numbered of the tribe of Benjamin were thirty-five thousand four hundred.
38 From the children of Dan, their genealogies by their families, by their fathers' house, according to the number of names, from twenty years old and above, all who were able to go to war: 39 those who were numbered of the tribe of Dan were sixty-two thousand seven hundred.
40 From the children of Asher, their genealogies by their families, by their fathers' house, according to the number of names, from twenty years old and above, all who were able to go to war: 41 those who were numbered of the tribe of Asher were forty-one thousand five hundred.
42 From the children of Naphtali, their genealogies by their families, by their fathers' house, according to the number of names, from twenty years old and above, all who were able to go to war: 43 those who were numbered of the tribe of Naphtali were fifty-three thousand four hundred.
44 These are the ones who were numbered, whom Moses and Aaron numbered, with the leaders of Israel, twelve men, each one representing his father's house. 45 So all who were numbered of the children of Israel, by their fathers' houses, from twenty years old and above, all who were able to go to war in Israel— 46 all who were numbered were six hundred and three thousand five hundred and fifty.
47 But the Levites were not numbered among them by their fathers' tribe; 48 for the Lord had spoken to Moses, saying: 49 "Only the tribe of Levi you shall not number, nor take a census of them among the children of Israel; 50 but you shall appoint the Levites over the tabernacle of the Testimony, over all its furnishings, and overall things that belong to it; they shall carry the tabernacle and all its furnishings; they shall attend to it and camp around the tabernacle. 51 And when the tabernacle is to go forward, the Levites shall take it down; and when the tabernacle is to be set up, the Levites shall set it up. The outsider who comes near shall be put to death. 52 The children of Israel shall pitch their tents, every one by his own camp, every one by his own standard, according to their armies; 53 but the Levites shall camp around the tabernacle of the Testimony, that there may be no wrath on the congregation of the children of Israel; and the Levites shall keep charge of the tabernacle of the Testimony."
54 Thus the children of Israel did; according to all that the Lord commanded Moses, so they did.

When night fell, the entire realm was veiled with a dark blue sky. Stars scattered throughout the night, decorating it beautifully. Chimes and jingles were the music orchestrated throughout the realm. Serenity and peace enveloped the space. 

Amidst it, thousands of dotted lights illuminated the night. The dotted lights were the floating waterfalls that hung high above the ground. Aurora travelled from a place to another, bringing a happy melody of children's laughter. 

Meanwhile, on a nearby floating waterfall, where the Hedo couple was residing, there was a happy event going on. The entire familiars and creatures that dwelled the domain came out of their hiding place to enjoy the beauty of the night sky with dances and songs. Their happy and merry laughter could be heard from the balcony where Jennet was lounging with her husband and newborn babies.

"Everyone is so happy other that side," She pointed out towards the direction of the garden, where the merry party was held.

"They're celebrating the night and most importantly are celebrating the birth of their new masters." Hue handed her a mug of crystal clear drink which was still hot.

Jennet rearranged the thick warm coat over her shoulders before she took the mug and held it carefully with both hands. She smelt the chocolatey scent of the drink and then fine-looking crease appeared between her brows.

"This is not a clear soup, right?" She eyed her husband. She smelt the air that evaporated from the surface of the mug for confirmation.

"It's not. It's a special drink drawn from the nearest stream." Hue replied. "It is safe to drink because it is healing water."

Jennet was convinced by his explanation. Don't expect anything to be the same as in reality, she said to herself. 

She held the mug closer to her lips and blew away the hot air before she took a sip. Her brows furrowed before she took another sip of the hot water, tasting it for the second time.

'This is weird. I can taste chocolate. Did my taste bud fails me after giving birth to the twins?' She frowned and took another careful sip.

"What happened?" Hue asked, getting anxious.

"I tasted chocolate from this crystal clear drink." She spoke after a moment of silence. She had an expression of disbelief on her face. "I didn't lose my sense of taste, right? Or is there any possibility for me to lose any my senses after giving birth to a god's children?"

"You won't lose anything, my dear. But, do you like the drink?" Her husband asked. 

"Of course I do. This is an amazing drink. It's clear but it had the taste of chocolate that I like the most." She replied happily. She raised a thumb for him.

"Then, drink it all. If you need more, I replenish it for you." Hue chuckled at her honest commentary and cute gesture.

"Thank you. I love you!" She was overjoyed.

"I love you too." He was unexpectedly proud.

After having the amazing drink, Jennet spent her time cuddling in the arms of her husband with her head rested against his broad chest. 

"Honey, have you come up with any names for the children?" She broke the wall of silence with a question.

Hue glanced down at her, "I haven't. Have you?"

"Me neither. I have no time to even think about their names because of the abnormal pregnancy duration. If I bear them just like the normal humans do, then, I have time to share with everyone especially by family and friends and maybe they will help me to find good names for the children." Jennet replied and was complaining as well.

Hue lowered his head and brushed the tip of his nose against her nose, "Are you perhaps unhappy because they come out early?"

Jennet glared at him, "I'm not." She replied. "Well, a little bit." She admitted and then continued, "But, I am not that unhappy about it. I am happy because I got to see them in good health." She smiled.

Hue wrapped his long arms around her waist, securing her for more warmth, "Hmm, then, can I tell you the names that I want to bestow to them?"

"Sure but please don't give them weird names," Jennet remembered about Keith's reminder on not giving the children any weird names.

"How about Arro and Arra?" Hue suggested.

"Arrow and Arra?"

"Not Arrow but A-R-R-O and A-R-R-A." He spelt the names.

"Arro and Arra..." She thought for a while, "I think they are good names. Are there any other names?"

"I honestly cannot think of any other names except for Arro and Arra." He answered.

Jennet glanced toward the twins by their side, "Arro Hedo and Arra Hedo..."

"You have other names in mind?" Hue asked her.

Jennet shook her head, "Nope." She smiled at him, "The name 'Arro' and 'Arra' suit them because they are a pair. Let's name them as Arro and Arra." She made up her mind.

***

"Arro and Arra?" Keith's face turned gloomy. It was about three days ago, he reminded Jennet about not giving the children any weird names and when he finally knew of the name suggested, he was unhappy about it.

"Is there no other names?" He glanced at the new parents. Seriously? Why named the son as Arro? That name reminds him of 'arrow' for shooting and whatnots. Plus, he was worried others will make fun of that child in the future.

"We honestly thought they suit with the name 'Arro' and 'Arra' because from that name alone it shows they are a pair of twins," Jennet explained and Hue nodded his head, supporting her explanation. 

"Any other explanation? I need one that can make me happy to let you have this ceremony runs smoothly. You must convince me on why you choose that name for them because they will carry the name for their entire life." Keith was adamant about his rules in naming the children.

"We want our children to have unique names that will show their personality and their difference from others. We want them to be who they are because I believe, these children are born to be the key to change the world." Hue explained. 

This time, Jennet nodded her head to support his explanation. She had no idea the naming ceremony would take a long time to be completed because Keith was very particular about names. He fussed about the names when he was told about it. She finally found that the not-so-talkative Keith could fuss for long hours and the subject he fussed about was suitable names for the babies.

Keith was in silence for a while, probably processing the logic in his head. He glanced towards the babies in their arms and exhaled a deep sigh, "Fine, I will let you name them as Arro and Arra. But, if they live unhappily because of these names, I have the power to change their name based on which name they desire the most. Deal?"

"Deal!" The Hedo couple replied in unison. There was a determination on their faces that tell Keith that the children will not regret the name chosen for them.

"I hope the children will be happy with the name..." Keith mumbled alone when he took a seal and dipped it in white ink. Then, he stamped it on a huge table in front of him. Two names appeared in cursive writing and were lined up among tons of other names.

Keith turned around and smiled, "Congratulation, the nameless children are now called as Arro Hedo and Arra Hedo!"

Hue and Jennet smiled widely when the ceremony ended smoothly. Flower petals rained down from the sky and showered the entire place. Everyone in the realm was informed of the names of the children. Gods and Goddess from other domain joined the ceremony and paid their respect to the newly born babies who would be the future god and goddess of the realm.

After the naming ceremony, Kith made an appearance to check on the health of Jennet and the babies. He met them at their villa and he came together with Little Vella.

"Where have you been in the last three days?" Jennet asked him after he checked the condition of the babies.

"I was resting at home." He answered, without bringing up about the fighting incident between him and Hue. He was also sure, Hue had no recollection about the fight plus Horan warned him not to disclose anything unnecessary to the couple.

"Oh," Jennet didn't ask for further explanation.

Kith glanced toward Hue who eyed him with seriousness on his face. "The Thousand Year festival is coming soon. I am wondering if you will be there to join the festival. At least, your wife can make friends with the other residents of this realm." 

"Sure, we will be there for as long as the Emperor permits us to prolong our stay." Hue replied coldly. Kith smiled and nodded his head before he took his leave. 

Meanwhile, Little Vella handed something to Jennet, "It is for you from me. I rarely give human any gift but for you it is special." She said.

Jennet took the box from her and thanked her for the gift. She opened the box and found a bracelet in it. It was made from gold with fine craftsmanship on it. 

"This is so beautiful. Thank you!" She thanked Little Vella again.

Little Vella didn't say anything and just left. It left Jennet in awkward silence. She looked at her husband, "Do you think she regretted her choice of gifting this bracelet to me?"

Hue laughed, "No. Each beacon is like that. They lack words, just like those grim reapers." He explained. "Believe me, she is not regretting it." He added to assure his wife.

Jennet nodded her head, "Since it is precious, I will keep it in a safe place." She closed the box and put it away in a safe place.

***

Little Vella returned to the hospital where Kith was waiting for her, "Did that blond head suspect anything about the gift?"

Little Vella shook her head, "I told them a white lie."

Kith smiled and patted her head, "Good. I am happy that you knew about the big responsibility that each of us have to carry for the sake of keeping this place safe."

"I know it all and you don't have to tell me about it." She spoke monotonously. "Also, keep your stupid face away from me." Then she left, disappeared into thin air. 

***

She was known as the Loveless Woman at her workplace because she never had or dated any man in her life. She just wanted be left alone. After five years she finally moved into a new house. She thought she had finally gained her freedom and yet she encountered a companion in her new home who kept pestering her life and he called her his wife though she clearly remembered not having married to anyone before. He was eager to expose their relationship but she was desperately trying to hide their relationship because it was a complicated relationship that could ruin her career due to he wasn't even a human.
Her life alongside this 'husband' of hers was just the beginning as she was being pulled even deeper into understanding who he really was and why he was in her house. 
***
"Wife, let's make a baby now!" Hue said honestly without any care of what her reaction would be. He jumped at her with his childish action. 

Jennet grunted and pushed him away angrily, "I am not making any baby with you, pervert!"

"Wife is so mean!" He whined loudly like a kid who was forbidden from eating candy. He cried waterfall of tears on the floor and stomped his feet, acting like an overly spoiled child.

"Uh..." Jennet hesitated. 

"Fine, stop crying!" She was defeated at last by her scheming husband. 

Hue leapt at her from the floor like an obedient puppy who wagged it's tail happily upon hearing his master's call for a treat.

To avenge his hatred, Absolute Heaven had worked desperately to improve his techniques and upgrade his equipment. Now, even if Ye Feng were not involved in this sudden assault, he would still give the members of Zero Wing a taste of his new strength.
However, just after Absolute Heaven walked out of the bar’s entrance, he discovered the golden magic array hovering in the evening sky.  
This magic array was a result of the Crusade Quest’s activation, and it would change the NPCs of Creek Town.  
The guards that had originally been Level 50 immediately fell to Level 30, while the Level 70 Tier 1 guard captains became Level 50, the same level as Shi Feng’s normal guards.  
Although Creek Town’s had been weakened, none of these guards delayed in taking action. The moment the warning bell rang, a storm of guards rushed out of the many buildings within the town. In moments, over two thousand guards surrounded the town. These NPCs belonged to the Blood Hand Association. At this moment, they had all removed their disguises, and the normal guards had revealed themselves as Blood Hand Association Members, while the guard captains were Blood Hand Association Elites.
[Blood Hand Association Members] (Elite Rank)
Level 30
HP 100,000/100,000
[Blood Hand Association Elites] (Tier 1 Elite Rank)
Level 50
300,000/300,000
“Why have all the guards become weaker?”
“What’s there to fear? Even if they are weaker, can Zero Wing defeat so many NPCs? Besides, we are here as well. If Zero Wing wants to attack, we’ll make them suffer the consequences.”  
When the players of Creek Town discovered that the guards beside them had suddenly grown weaker, worry grew in their hearts. However, they soon rid their minds of this worry. Even during its peak, Zero Wing only had around 8,000 members. Moreover, due to the surge of players that had withdrawn from the Guild, they now had less than 5,000.  
Even if Zero Wing had mobilized all 5,000 of its members, in the face of 2,000 NPCs, charging into the town would be nothing more than suicide. At this stage of the game, players had yet to reach Level 30. Furthermore, not a single player had managed to upgrade to a Tier 1 class. So, how could they possibly hope to fight against Level 30 and Level 50 NPCs? In God’s Domain, such a massive gap between levels was fatal.  
“Begin!” Shi Feng commanded in the team chat.
Fire Dance and the others immediately took action, each of them commanding a Level 50 Tier 1 guard as they charged towards the Blood Hand Association’s army.  
The guards Fire Dance and the others controlled were Tier 1 Rangers and Assassins. Regarding Movement Speed, they were much faster than the Blood Hand Association Members. Rangers also possessed ultra-long-ranged attack capabilities, and they could launch their attacks from 100 yards away. Hence, they were perfect for the role of a lure.  
Within moments, the Red Names of Creek Town noticed several figures rushing at them with speeds that no players could hope to achieve.  
In the next moment, these Rangers retrieved their longbows, nocking arrows and releasing them.
 _Xiu!_ The arrows struck their targets, several Level 30 Blood Hand Association Members, from roughly 90 yards away. Each arrow dealt over -5,000 damage to these Level 30 NPCs. If a player received one of these arrows, they would die with a single hit.
The Rangers’ attack attracted the attention of the Blood Hand Association NPCs. Without hesitation, over a thousand Blood Hand Association NPCs unsheathed their weapons and charged.  
Seeing this, the Rangers turned on their heels and fled. Very quickly, they had drawn these Blood Hand Association NPCs away from the city.
“Weren’t we being attacked by players from Zero Wing? Why are there Level 50 Tier 1 NPCs as well?”
The Red Names were confused. They simply stood where they were, not following the Blood Hand Association NPCs in pursuit of the Tier 1 Rangers.  
Level 50 Tier 1 NPCs only needed a single hit to kill them. If they did not possess lifesaving skills, fighting such an NPC was suicide. Moreover, they were all Red Names. If they died, they would pay a severe penalty. At the very minimum, they would lose two to three levels and a majority of their equipment. Naturally, they had to weigh the costs and benefits before they took action.
Not to mention, they had never intended to charge with the NPCs since the very beginning. Instead, they had planned to take advantage of the confusion while the Blood Hand Association NPCs and Zero Wing clashed. Now, however, those NPC guards had lured away all of the Blood Hand Association NPCs. At this moment, even they began to wonder whether they should join in the pursuit or not.  
Just as these Red Names contemplated their actions, the Blood Hand Association NPCs had distanced themselves several hundred yards from the town.  
“This is bad. The Blood Hand Association NPCs are gone!” one of the Red Names realized the situation and shouted. “We need to go help them! If Zero Wing manages to kite and kill them, we’ll be finished!”
This player’s words shook everyone to attention. Unfortunately, these Red Names were neither a single group nor of a single heart. Most importantly, they all understood that the first person to charge into battle would also be the first person to leave. Even though they had realized how serious their predicament was, none of them were willing to take action first. Instead, they all chose to stay put and do nothing at all.
None of these Red Names had discovered that, at this time, Shi Feng had already led the remaining forty Level 50 Tier 1 NPCs in a charge from another direction.
When capturing a town, the NPCs were the not the most troublesome obstacle. Instead, it was the players residing in said town. If the players and NPCs inside the town were allowed to cooperate, without absolute strength, it would be impossible to capture the town successfully.
Hence, the most important thing Shi Feng needed to do right now was to get rid of the players; only then would it be the NPCs’ turn to die.
After players died, they had to wait half an hour before they could revive at the Graveyard. Furthermore, if these Red Names died, even if they had the determination to continue fighting, they would not have the strength to present a challenge. The penalty they suffered was simply too severe.
Although the forty Level 50 Tier 1 guards did not possess as much HP as the Blood Hand Association Elites, they still had over 100,000 HP each. Moreover, the opponents they faced right now were not NPCs, but players; it would only take a single attack to kill a player instantly. When all forty Tier 1 guards charged at the Red Names of Creek Town, they were like a group of ferocious beasts as they killed everything in their path.  
Although there were many Red Names in Creek Town, they were completely unable to defend themselves against these guards. Shield Warriors and Guardian Knights could take two hits at most. In the blink of an eye, Red Names died, one after another, littering the ground with bodies and equipment.  
In contrast, although the Red Names attacked continuously, due to the level suppression of over 30 Levels, the damage the Red Names managed to deal was negligible. One thousand Level 20 players were required to take down a single Tier 1 guard, let alone forty guards.
With the forty guards sharing the damage from the enemy players, their battle recovery alone made up for the HP they lost. Not to mention, among the forty guards, there were also Clerics and other healer classes. A casual heal from one of these NPCs could replenish over 10,000 HP.
Within tens of seconds, over 200 Red Names of Creek Town died, while all forty guards that Shi Feng led still had full HP.
The disparity in strength caused the Red Names to despair.  
“These NPC guards are too strong! We need to retreat and meet up with the Blood Hand Association NPCs!”
“You bastards from Zero Wing are shameless! You actually brought Level 50 Tier 1 NPCs to capture a town! If you have the strength to face us, don’t use those NPC guards and fight us fairly!
…
The Red Names cursed Shi Feng at the others as they fought the NPCs.
Shi Feng could only chuckle at their words. Immediately, he instructed the NPC mages to cast their AOE spells.
Suddenly, rain of fire descended from the sky. In the next moment, thunderbolts struck down at the Red Names. When cast by the Tier 1 mages, the Tier 1 AOE spells could display their true might.
The Red Names of Creek Town died in batches. After several AOE spells landed, the battlefield fell quiet. Of all the Red Names that had resided in Creek Town, only 400 or so remained, while everyone else was dead.
This scene not only shocked the players of the town, but Aqua Rose and the others were also stunned.
A single wave of AOE spells became a nightmare for the Red Players of Creek Town.  
“Run!”  
Nobody knew who shouted, but every surviving Red Name agreed wholeheartedly as they fled in all directions.  
“Let’s start the slaughter. A majority of these Red Names wear Mysterious-Iron Equipment. Killing one of them will profit us more than killing a small Boss. Such an opportunity will be rare in the future,” Shi Feng laughed.  
Following which, with Aqua Rose in the lead, both players and NPCs chased and killed the fleeing Red Names.
When Shi Feng was the last remaining on the high slope, he suddenly opened his mouth and said, “Now that no one is around, you can come out, right?”
Shortly after the battle began, Shi Feng faintly sensed someone spying on them from nearby. Moreover, the gaze that he felt contained a cold killing intent. However, it was only a feeling, so Shi Feng had not paid too much attention to it.
After his team left, however, this feeling became much clearer. He then activated the Golden Stigmata’s skill, Omniscient Eyes. The skill allowed him to perceive everything within 100 yards, and all stealth effects were useless in the face of this skill. And as expected, Shi Feng discovered an Assassin slowly creeping up on him from behind.
However, even after Shi Feng spoke, the Assassin continued to hide.
“Do you think I am playing a trick on you?” Shi Feng unsheathed the Abyssal Blade and immediately sent a Thundering Flash behind him.
Three green arcs of lightning streaked across the air. In the next moment, a black figure suddenly appeared and swiftly dodged the attack. It was none other than the Assassin that Shi Feng had killed before, Absolute Heaven.  
At this moment, shock filled Absolute Heaven’s chilling gaze. Someone was actually capable of discovering his presence from such a long distance away. This was the first time he had encountered such a situation.


Starting over once more, he has entered this “living game” again in order to control his own fate.

This time, he will not be controlled by others.

Previously the Level 200 Sword King, he will rise to a higher peak in this life.

Methods to earn money! Dungeon conquering strategies! Legendary Quests! Equipment drop locations! Undiscovered battle techniques!

Even the secrets Beta Testers were unknowledgeable of, he knows of them all.

Massive wars, life advancement, entering Godhood, sword reaching to the peak; a legend of a man becoming a Sword God has begun.

The Sacred Language

Delivered by the Gods to the first Emperors of the three Empires (Wen, Sen and Ran), it can't be considered a complete language in itself, but more a set of terms that were supposed to be used only in certain, holly settings. The words are always short (composed by two to four common letters) and have their own writing system, where each word is represented by a specific character called daitai, or marking in the common language. The association of two or more words makes for more complex meanings (daitai = dai (light) + tai (mark), making a mark of light or a holly marking).

All Dainin, or gifted ones (dai (light) + nin (person / human)), possess at least one daitai imprinted on their backs, from which they can draw power to be used on their daily tasks.

The sacred language is also used on the names of the Empires (Wen (sun), Sen (star), Ran (moon)) and their Provinces.

Even though that wasn't its initial purpose, with time, the sacred language started to be used as a way to distinguish between social classes as well. As such one can consider six classes of citizens clearly separated by their birth names:

* The Royals, meaning the El'Dur (Emperor), the El'Dai (Empress) and the Emperor's descendants in a position to inherit the throne. They always have three sacred names, the name of the Empire and two sacred given names, like Wen FeiWan, one of the El'Gin (Prince), in a position to inherit the crown. Wen meaning Sun, the name of the Empire, and FeiWan from fei (raging / angry) and wan (fire). Only the Empress has the right to use the name of the Empire as her family name, the Queen (Dailar) and the Emperor's Concubines (Janwan) must keep their original Province's names.

* Nobles in a positing to lead their Provinces, or to inherit the right to do so, also possess three sacred names. The first one being the name of their Province (working as a family or clan name) plus two given sacred names. For example, Zai MinTar, the Governess of the Province of Zai.

- The exception to these two rules are the Celestials (Tien'Elhar) who also adopt their Chosen One's Province's name, even though they will never inherit it or govern the land, like Zai HaeTai, the name of Zai MinTar's Celestial.

* Other Nobles, that are not in a position to inherit their Provinces or their family's lands will only use two names, like ZenTar (zen (silent), tar (wind)), which doesn't mean that in the future they won't be able to take on their Province's name and become a legit successor.

* Following the same logic, people from normal families, with lands and/or businesses to run, will have three common names, a family name and two given names, like Rain BlueSky, where Rain is the family name. These are considered proper, honorable citizens.

* People who have left their families, for example to serve in the army or in the Palace, only keep their two given names, like HardRock. Which doesn't mean that they won't be able to take on their family name again, should they choose to return home and dedicate themselves to their families' businesses.

* Homeless people without families and criminals only have one name, like Snow.

A sacred name can be granted to a common person through merit, which will sometimes happen to those in the military service. In these cases they can be granted only one or two sacred names, according to their accomplishments.

Likewise a person can be stripped from their names, should they, for example, commit a crime and be condemned to prison.

Names and the use of the sacred language are directly related to honor and pride, reflecting one's position inside society and determining the way other people look and behave towards them.

To make things easier, at the end of each chapter I will add the translation to the common language of any sacred names used.

Hopefully I didn't make things even more confusing … :P

Born a fatherless bastard and with an impoverished, ravaged Province to Govern, Nox ZaiWin has more than enough on his plate.

And so yeah, the last thing he wanted was to become some Celestial's Chosen One.

And is that even a Celestial? Hasn't the brat just murdered more than one-hundred of his men with a single scream? Aren't Celestials supposed to be holly, pure beings, that abhor all forms of death and killing?

No other choice! No matter how sinful it may be, the brat must die!

Snow has lived most of his life locked in a dark room, explored and sold for his miraculous blood. There are a lot of things he does not understand about the outside world. But one thing is certain. He does not want to have anything to do with some scary dark monster. He wants to be free! And he’ll do whatever it takes to reach his goal.

And yet … Shit! Aren’t they stuck together now? Their life-lines intertwined?

Wait! If the dark monster wants him dead, that’s easy enough to solve. All he has to do is to successfully kill him first!

"I feel like I'm going to die of dehydration," Arunika said as another deluge of rainbows spewed out of her mouth from the side of the boat.
"We're almost at the main island, honey," Aoi said rubbing her back gently.
"Just a short while longer and we'll be on solid land," Eva commented from the side.
Arunika looked askance at the two women to her right and replied, "How am I going to be alright? If I vomit anymore then I may as well display my stomach through my mouth as well. How are you two fine anyways? This feeling is awful."
"You really want to know?" Aoi said to which Arunika meekly nodded. Aoi pointed to Arunika's ear then her eyes. "What's happening is the information your eyes is sending to your brain is different to the information the bones in your ears is sending out. The brain gets confused and it can't put those pieces of information together thus making you feel nauseous. If you want to feel some minor relief, then look at and focus on the horizon and take deep breaths. Let's get under some shade while we're at it."
After walking over and sitting under an overhang of the ship's deck and resting a few minutes, Arunika confirmed that she felt a little better. "You know... I've always felt at home when I was by the coast near the seas, but this is too much. I need firm land and soft sand under my feet."
"It's alright. We're almost there. Just relax and keep your eye on the horizon."
~~~~~~~~~~
The ship reached an island set in the middle of numerous other islands and, as far as the eye can see, is a palace that spans the entire expanse from coast to coast. Skirting the edges of the island are miniature warships equipped with soldiers holding a mix of longbows and short recurve bows and ballistae on the bow and stern.
Just from a glance of how tight security is around the island, it's obvious that this is either the royal palace or at least the fortification of someone important. Archers and sentries are stationed at intervals up on the walls and it's obvious even to Aoi and Arunika that none of them dares to slack off.
"Is this the royal palace?" Aoi asks.
"Indeed. The King has already been informed of your arrival and is awaiting for you at the docks with his family," Eva responds.
"How old are his children?" Arunika asks as she's curious about her fellow distant cousins.
"There's the princess, Luna Soleil, who will be 16 and having her adulthood rites in the following Winter months, and the prince, Apollo Soleil, who just had his 8th birthday. I've also come to learn the Queen is pregnant with her third child and will give birth in about 4 months."
"Quick question," Aoi interjected. Eva turned to her to acknowledge. "What is the significance of the sun and moon to your culture? I only ask because every name, the family names and given names, refer to both the sun and moon, and to not sound rude, but some of these names don't sound like they'd come from your culture. On my home world, those names exist too, but they come from different cultures."
"We revere the sun and moons in our culture. They directly affect our way of life. The sun nourishes our bodies and wildlife, gives us warmth to the land and waters, and brings us light every day. The moon tells us the cycle of the year, works with the stars at night to light the darkness, and commands the waters to bring us the high and low tides of our waters. We don't worship them as gods per say, but because of how direct of a correlation that they have with our daily lives, we hold immense meaning to their existence. As to the names, the royal family and their relatives take on these names to show respect. Other islanders may use these names as well, but no one does."
"How you have so many different names related to it is my main concern though," Aoi brought this point up because she was honestly wondering how an island culture that resembled a melting pot of different island and coastal nations from back on Earth would have names from cultures on Earth. There's names from Latin, Greek, Southeast Asia, India, and more. Not to mention, the Kreutz Empire with their Germanic and German influence in names.
Eva looked away and scratched her head in thought. "That one is a little harder to explain. Some are from ancient texts found in our archives that date to communication with now extinct cultures and some are from other cultures around the other four continents. There are some that we, as a people, have no idea how they came about, but they are still there."
"Do you think other people from my world have come here as well? Maybe someone with a name like mine has come around, or someone who has the same facial features as mine? I only ask because I haven't seen or heard anything with an Eastern Asian influence."
"That I'm not sure about. It's always a likely possibility others from your world have come here, and to your other question, no, you're honestly the first person I've seen or heard of with a name and face like yours." Eva pondered and couldn't think of an instance like this.
"Kono yo ni hanasa reta hito wa imasu ka?"
"What?"
Arunika perked up and answered in excitement, "She said, 'Have you ever heard anyone talking like this?' Did I get that right Aoi-chan?"
Aoi nodded with a smile at Arunika and Eva said, "Not that I can think of. That's the first. You can understand it Arunika?"
"Yeah, she's been teaching me!" Aoi reached up and rubbed her head causing her to giggle.
"She's a genius. Honestly, I don't want to sound narcissistic to say I'm a genius too, I am, but she's amazing. Aru-chan here has a near perfect photographic memory and can remember almost anything the first time she sees or hears it."
"I hate learning kanji though," Arunika interrupted with a pout, "There's too many."
"Fufu, that's true. There's over 50,000 of them, but no one really knows or uses that many."
Eva was honestly surprised at the revelation of Arunika's memory capabilities. "That's amazing. I'm certain the King would like to know more about your travels and hardships over this past decade to learn more about the Kreutz Empire." Eva turned to look to the bow of the ship and saw them approaching the docks. "We're here guys. You ready, Arunika?"
The two nodded with smiles and prepared to debark from the ship that pulled up to the docks of the royal palace. Everything seemed peaceful now and they hoped they'd be able to live happily, but this was only the calm before the storm.

Nakamura Aoi is a 22 year old woman constantly avoiding her parent's attempts at trying to match make her marriage. She wants marriage but her sexual preference doesn't allow her. Unbeknownst to her family, she hides away her true desires and drinks away her sorrows every night. Until one night, her parents burst into her apartment and witness her at her most embarrassing moment.

At this moment, she runs out of her apartment and in a drunken stupor, while arguing with her parents, walks too close to the bridge's railing and ultimately disappears from her parent's eyes.

The next thing she knows, she wakes up coughing up water on the shore of a beach next to an unknown port town in a world she doesn't recognize. At this point, she meets the 17 year old, Arunika, crouching over her smiling a toothy grin like her name implies. Early morning sunlight.

Follow their tale as Aoi discovers love in this seemingly peaceful world filled with wonders and danger alike.

(The title comes from the combination of meanings of the two female leads. Aoi referring to the color blue in Japanese and Arunika taken with the Sanskrit meaning of 'early morning sunlight')
