Synopsis

'What is this?' Theodore thought as he opened his little eyes to what he assumes to be one of his parents who is dropping him off on the doorstep of a church at what seemed to be in the middle of nowhere, ---a few hours ago ago--- Theodore was like any other normal person: had a family, had dreams, filled with ambitiouns, liked games, sometimes goes outside, has preferences, filled with desire, and of course went through a difficult time in his life, he was just as normal as the average person is. but one thing he is different from others is that he likes roasting people online especially the rich, he loves making fake accounts just to meme people, judge thier preferences and give rating for their every day (unnecessary) objects, he even makes money from it by making videos about how stupid some rich people are. But that led him to his death when he was kidnapped by a rich woman, who he had made fun of... '???' He didn't know what happened after that... --- [Somewhere in a different time]--- 'Where am I?' he asked as he tries to move his head and eyes uncoordinated, there were noticeable things to hint where he was currently at; the church was styled like it was described from a dark fantasy book, the sky was clear with a few clouds roaming in the sky as the light of dawn hits them, and his parent who looked like a literal angel, '....they seemed to be speaking..." "....to think my offspring looked... Normal, even though you're mother is a human and I, Michael... am an angel... So shouldn't you be a €i@n¥?" The angel asked the infant, only to be replied with cooing, "Oh... Who am I kidding? You're just an infant, how can you even understand..... goodbye Little David" the angel said as he spans his wings wide, knocked on the church's door before he flew from the ground and vanished between the rays of dawn ——17——Years——Later—— 'Hmm', looking back at the moment, David sighed in his stupidity for realizing something that he should've considered, "Well I was very afraid and shaken from being reincarnated, so I really can't truly blame myself for not realizing....

He asked, seemingly into the air [No, from what I can see, the fault was totally on you] the voice of the male siri that suddenly replied to him "Well fuck you, this wasn't supposed to be my problem, I'm just a defect Nephilim, not someone who asked to be a hero!"

Chapter 1Chpt. 1 - Existentialism

Blood... That's the first thing Theodore tasted in his mouth as he gradually lost both his consciousness, then pain came after as he felt his back burn from the bullets as they twist and stopped inside his body,

Theodore struggled to break free but cannot fight back as he slowly loses control of his body from the lack of blood flow,

---3 hours ago---

Ted had just finished trial of him disowning his son by law, walked from the court as he eats donuts. "Ah... Geez, what a hassle--" he takes a bite of his donut "--who would be stupid enough to go back to thier father and causing a mess, I mean he is my son by blood but I swear I use condoms" he wore an annoyed expression when he thought of his son.

This is Theodore Bram Jr. an [Arsehole] who is half American and half German, he walks proudly around 6ft as he wears casual-formal clothes and he currently works as a: YouTuber who focuses on scandals (side job), A corrupt journalist (main job), and a critic. He is a close accurate representation of a bastard, he's mostly either nonchalant, cocky, or grumpy.

He had just walked around a corner when he was grabbed and pulled into a dark alley.

---Present---

He looked around and saw a van come up as a woman dressed up in a cocky fashion got out of it 

She looked at him with a smug qnd said "you shouldn't have messed with people like me~, hmph!" after what she said a gunshot was heard, he wasn't even able to comprehend what happened as finally closes his eyes and never opened them....

==================

[Greece\\ Village of Hoperri\\ 189 BC]

The place was filled with mists it could be seen as it passes through everything in an ethereal manner, a few minutes before full dawn; the sunrise just beyond the forest, a figure carrying what seemed to be an infant came out of the forest.

'Where am I?' the soul asked as it feels uncomfortable in his body, '.... Who am I?' he thought as he felt the huge hands that carrying him 'are these the hands of a giant or.... No, I'm just--' small, that's what he concluded. 

Then... He remembered.

All the things he had done from cursing his mother, scamming people, making fun of those who help others in need, and abandoning his own son.

'Was I really a bad person?'

Weirdly enough, he didn't have the same perspective of his old self did as if he was a different person.

He kept remembering his old life and every time he sees it he kept asking '....was I like that?.... Was I really a bad person?' he kept asking and regretting his past mistakes but in a way he felt like he was never that type of person.

'Could I even be forgiven?' though he doesn't want to admit it but it was evident that he's really a bad person.

'... I.. I'm sorry for--' his thoughts were stopped as felt that he was put down on some hard stone floor, he thought he would be left for dead, 

Until the light of dawn shows that he was in front of a run down house and the person who brought him there was... an [Angel], a literal look and [General Description] of an angel 

"Such a shame that my offspring... Is that of norm" the angel said with it's disordered voice.

He looked at the angel but all he could see is the disappointment in the person's eyes.

 "I'm quite sure you would have been born as a [Nephilim], well I guess I have a pathetic seed or is it just that your mother was a weird person.... 

You're just a waste of breath, if only you were big enough then you could have had caused chaos and be proud of being a [fallen]'s child...

Just die" the [Watcher] said as looked at the infant menacingly as if it was thinking whether to kill him, it's hands reached out and was about to hold the infants neck through the piece of cloth wrapped arouned the child.

'What.... No, I don't want to die again... Please' Theodore look dreaded as he tries to plead but all he could do was make sounds, and he subconsciously cried and to the watcher it was like the infant was begging not to be killed.

The watcher's hand stopped it's decent as it looked at the one day old's eyes, it was as if the baby was pleading and could understand him but also the [Watcher] hesitated

".... looks like I still haven't got rid of my.... morals, goodbye then, David... " The [Watcher] said as his fingers glow in a light that radiates heat, leaned down and wrote something in Greek letters on the stones floor [His name is David]

"I guess that's all.... Farewell, I hope we don't meet again. If so, then I'll end you, my creation" the fallen angel said as his wings spanned, then with a flap of both it's wings, it flew away into the dark clouds beyond, away from the horizon.

---A few minutes later---

An old man came out and was surprised at the sight of a baby on his doorstep, "Oh my! Who... What...--" he didn't continue his words as he quickly took the infant boy inside, he looked outside again to check and saw words etched into his doorstep "This was done by scorching... How? More importantly why is the child's name David?" the elderly man just sighed but looked at the name of the infant with pity as well as sadness, and it seems that it caused the old man to remember... His own regrets

He sighed one last time as he went inside and stared at the infant, "Guess you're stuck with me..." he said as he picked up the baby and shook his hands gently as he held David, trying to get the child to sleep "I think cow milk will do for your food".

-------8 years later-------

A group of kids could be seen eating on top of a boulder as they chatter while facing behind the boulder, eating apples with cheering smiles and joyful laughs as they kept throwing a few bitten apples to a skinny kid, who has eating the nearly finished apples on the ground. The skinny kid looked like a beggar, the boy had an unkempt long hair which reached down to his shoulder, matched with his dirty clothes and his callouses on his feet and especially on his hands, - This is David

"Oof, I'm quite full though those apples were disgusting, it felt sweet when there's entertainment. Correct am I?" He asked looking at the other children, and of course they replied to him with words and sentences that seems to please the boy.

Why? Because he is the son of one of the ten famed captains of the Roman Empire, and no one wants to get on their bad side so they had to comply to this arrogant boy.

"Of course Maxicrus, brilliant concept","No truer words spoken","You're truly the son of a warrior philosopher" these words were spoken not to just reply but to praise and this gave Maxicrus a sense of superiority as his mood went up but it quickly turned sour as he saw something, in the corner of his eyes he saw David slowly walking away.

"How dare he! Come back here, Freak! If you don't I'm going to order my father's men to burn that stupid farm, even if it is my grandfather's!!!" Maxicrus yelled as he turns to call back David, He did see him pause his steps and turn back before walking to Maxicrus.

Maxicrus smiled but his smirking face turned into confusion as David started running in a speed that of a horse, which is unnatural for a child his age could do, and before Maxicrus could quickly react it was far too late.

David tilted to his side and slammed his shoulder at the side of the boulder with full force which somehow made the boulder shake, in turn forcing Maxicrus and his entourage of 7-9 year olds fall from the top.

All of them looked at him with fear at first before standing up and started glaring at him with hatred especially Maxicrus who scraped his knee "I'm telling my Father, Maximus, about this!! Your damned farm will burn!!" he said as he ran away limping with the others,

"... You hate me, because you fear me because I have power but in truth, only those with true power are those with pride

backed with a title and a political position..." he said as he walked towards a field of apple trees whilst he massages his shoulder that he used on the boulder "I don't have true power, I barely even have half a real [Nephilim]'s power" David said as he walked towards a house in the middle of the forest of apple trees.

My SSS-Rank Class Is Blood Monarch!

'Divinity Online'. The new breakthrough in the Full-Immersion Virtual Reality technology. After decades of work, Divinity Corp had achieved the impossible. Creating a massive video game world that people can enter and live in as if it were Earth. Their goal was clear, to create a world other than Earth that we can call home. A place where the laws of reality vanish, and the true ceiling of power shifts completely. Naturally, the shockwave Divinity Online created across the entire globe was unlike anything else. Every single person has heard of it, even those who have had no interest in video games before. Giant corporations and even governments immediately rushed to start planning to invest in this new world and just like that, billions of people had their eyes on one single date: the 19th of July. *** Arthur, like everyone else, had heard of the game and was as excited as everyone else to try it, if not even more. With how much he grew bored of his life on earth, this fantasy world was like the divine call he had been searching for. However, there was a very small problem. He had no money to buy the machine required to access Divinity Online. His wretched life had turned him into a broke teenager with no parents, and no relatives. But, by some kind of luck, he got his hands on one of those machines. Not knowing what was awaiting him in that world, Arthur was simply seeking one thing... A new opportunity in life and to find a purpose he could work for when he had none so far. [Welcome to 'Divinity Online'.] [Assimilation Started...]

Armipotent

This is a work of fiction, any names, characters, stories or events, are fictitious! (Even the country in the story is just the author's fantasy as the author never visited those countries in the story) Armipotent is an archaic adjective meaning "strong in battle." Basically, it refers to someone who is physically tough in war. Originally, it was used to refer to the Roman god of war, Mars. ===================== Tang Shaoyang, an orphan who dropped out of the middle school to fight on the street as he found out school was useless for a penniless orphan like him. Tang Shaoyang dropped out of his school, fighting on the street, and made a name for himself. Berserker Tang from Youyouliucun. Afterward, Dragon Wing triad recruited him and everything was good for him. Even though the public deemed him as a tumor of society, Tang Shaoyang was having a decent life. Until one day, everything changed as an absurd and strange game started. "... Game starts! Stage one: Survival for The Fittest!" After the game started, zombies appeared out of nowhere. ... Ding! "You have killed 1000 zombies less than 24 hours since the game started! You gained 3 Talents!" Dong! "You may choose 3 Talents! please choose carefully!" Tang Shaoyang held his chin and mused what Talent he had to choose. "With Zombies appear everywhere, I need an infinite strength... this is one, I still need to choose 2 Talents more..." Then a lewd smile formed on his lips. "I want an infinite strength, charm and charisma to conquer women, and the last one, I want to upgrade my **** so I can please my women!" After saying this, Tang Shaoyang laughed aloud. "Hahaha, there's no way such talent exists... ehhhhh?!!!" Ding! Dong! "3 Talents are consumed! You have been granted Divine Body! Good Luck, Gamer Tang Shaoyang!" Tang Shaoyang immediately checked the detail of Divine Body. After a brief silence, he muttered unbelievably. "Such Talents really exist..."
