Chapter 3 - A God's Death

I was woken up rather abruptly when I noticed that someone had sat opposite me. I looked towards the woman who had seated herself opposite me. She had long, blonde hair and beautiful golden eyes, her skin and face were devoid of any forms of imperfections. She also had this aura that made you think of her as divine. She also had a rather well proportioned body. But for some reason I was completely indifferent to her.

'I wonder If this is the etiquette that Arthur taught me, thank God he taught it to me, I'd be a red mess right about now if it wasn't for him.'

"My apologies did I wake you?"

She had a soothing, voice, like an Angels-

'Wait, dont tell me its her? Why did I have to meet her of all people first!'

"It's fine, I might have missed my stop if I didn't wake up soon."

Angelica stared at me, it was as if she was wondering why I was acting so composed around her. Someone came by soon after and asked if we'd like something to drink, I ordered something for the both of us. Mainly because I wanted to make a good impression on her and I also wanted to get her to stop staring at me.

After a few minutes of us silently sipping away at our drinks she said, "Juding by how you move, you must know who I am. Correct? If you know who I am then you must know that trying to flatter me would probably be a good idea. But you don't seem to want to do that, actually you seem to not care about my presence at all"

I stopped drinking, I simply said "No I don't know who you are. I simply bought you a drink to get you to stop staring at me. To put it bluntly, I don't care about who you are"

Her eyes started glowing and she released her mana and concentrated it around me, but I didn't flinch. I wasn't going to be fazed by this much, especially after I had seen Arthur's pressure. Angelica had always been protected by her family and her own talent, she had a fragile ego. Which was broken by the protagonist later on, I'd love to leave it to him to do this. But if I back down now, she'll think I'm a pushover. Seriously, why did I make these kids such a huge pain in the ass?

"Monarch's Wrath" I murmured to myself.

Angelica Godhart POV

This guy really wants to push his luck, first he doesn't even try to show any respect towards me. A member of the esteemed Godhart family, and a bearer of the Angel's bloodline. But he says he doesn't care? On top of that, he acts like he doesn't even know who I am? I'll show him what fear truly looks like! I'll throughly crush his family afterwards for making a mockery out of me.

I released my pressure, most people didn't notice it due to my level of Mana control. I shuddered thinking about his fearful expression, I couldn't hide my glee and broke out into a smirk.

Then it came, a horrid sensation that gripped my very soul. I tried to make eye contact but I couldn't, my body started shivering and I was sweating. It felt like the water droplets on my forehead were trying to run away from fear.

The boy's presence had completely changed, it was like I was standing in front of someone totally above me. I forced myself to look at his eyes, a Godhart wouldn't simply kneel infront of overwhelming strength.

Then I saw it, his eyes. They were glowing a beautiful hue of crimson, but they seemed so cold. I shuddered, what kind of life could he have possibly lead for him to possess eyes like that. They were eyes that were completely devoid of life, before I felt overwhelming terror. Whilst now I still felt that, I also felt pity.

Then out of seemingly nowhere, came 2 women who were wearing black suits and the typical bodyguard get up. They were people who my father sent to protect me, as a Godhart I should normally be In a car. But I wanted to see what a train was like, however my father insisted upon bringing 2 [D+] ranked heroes for my protection.

The boy said, "I should introduce myself, I am Reinhardt Umbridge. Pleased to meet you"

Reinhardt POV

"I should introduce myself, I am Reinhardt Umbridge Pleased to meet you."

The effects of my skill were simply amazing, I could introduce myself in a fancy way in front of 2 people who would kill me without a shred of remorse. I deactivated my skill, "Put your weapons away, I'm going to leave soon enough anyways so calm down."

Angelica nodded her head towards her body guards, and they dissapeard once more.

"Umbridge? You should be from a rather well off family so I should know your name? But I've never even heard of the name Umbridge."

"That's because I'm not from a well off family? Well it's more accurate to say I don't have a family but that's really not the point."

"Oh so you really don't know who I am? My apologies, I thought you were mocking me." She quickly said in a surprisingly apologetic tone.

"No I don't, since you're one of those extremely rich brats I assume you'll be checking the validity of my statements. Now if you'll excuse me, I need to go and attend to some business. After all, unlike you rich people, I need to work for what I want."

I left at the next stop, it was thankfully the stop I needed to go to.

'Honestly I let my thoughts spill out too much, I had nothing against Angelica, but in that instant. That demeanor of hers reminded me of the senior who made my past life crumble to dust. I wonder if she'll make my life harder? I suppose I'd have to subdue her with force if it came to that. Well that's if I don't get killed in the process'

As I made my way to the outskirts of the city I found the place I was looking, it was another cave. This time, the cave used to be the lair of something, I took a step in to the cave.

As I stepped through, I noticed that wasn't in the cave anymore. Well at least not at the entrance of the cave. Then I felt of something truly divine, Angelica would seem like something bellow even dirt compared to whatever the source of this presence was.

Then I felt the presence close in on me, I fell down. Not even having the composure to activate my skill I break out into cold sweat. I started shivering at the frost attribute mana that was around. It seemed to be making a path, it was if the ground didn't deserve to deserve to be stepped on by whatever was coming.

Then I saw it, a huge wolf that easily stood at over 3 meters tall, it was let out a torrent of dark attribute Mana. I thought I'd piss myself for a while. Then I noticed a handle, I instinctively knew, "Ragnarok?-"

"How do you know of this accursed sword?"

The wolf spoke, no it wasn't a wolf. It was a God Beast, a Fenrir to be specific. The way it spoke told me that it wasn't asking me, but ordering me to answer its querie. It then looked, before it thought of me as nothing, but I knew of Ragnarok. Now, it was exuding a killing intent that made throw up out of fear.

'That's a God Beast? That's no God, that's simply a monster!'

The giant wolf furrowed its eyes before releasing its killing intent, I activated [Monarch's Wrath] and started regaining my composure. I got a better look at the wolf, it's fur was a beautiful hue of black. I was far less scared now that I had activated my skill.

"Oh my? Isn't that Arthur's skill? Well whatever,I don't care of what that brat does with his Skills. Still though, to give up his Unique Skill to a child."

The wolf looked at me, its eyes felt like they could see through the world itself. They were filled with a sense of sovereignty and power that would only come from living for several millenia. The wolf released spoke once more, this time it seemed to be curious of me. Not my knowledge but me.

"You aren't a person of this world are you?"

I knew that there would be no use in lying, so I told the truth, "Yes, I am not someone from this world."

"In that case I don't care about how you know of this sword, come here boy why don't we have a chat? I've not had a visitor for several centuries now."

I nodded and made my way towards the Fenrir, the God Beast was looking at me with pity. As if he knew about everything I'd been through. I deactivated my skill, believing it would be useless to hide my emotions.

"You seem to be in pain? Why don't you tell me about yourself? This old man has quite a lot of time to spare"

My widened, but nonetheless I nodded at the Fenrir. I told him about how happy I was in my old world, then I told him about the person who ruined my old life. About how everyone I knew started leaving me, about my parents deaths. And about my sister killed herself right in front of me.

I then told him about how I'd been reborn in this world, how I was scared.

And before I knew it, I was crying. I couldn't even hold it back anymore, I had buried my fear with excitement for the past few days. But now, in front of someone who seemed to fully understand my situation. The tears kept coming.

"I was so scared, I didn't know wether I'd stay the same or wether the person who used to be in this body was apart of me. I didn't know if I'd always be the owner of this body or if I would one day have to leave!"

The wolf lifted its large paw and patted my head tenderly, as if it were a grandfather trying to console his grandchild. It didn't ask any questions, it just let me cry.

Once I had regained my composure I apologised profusely and was embarrassed to the point where I felt like steam was coming off my cheeks.

"Not to worry boy, I apologise for the earlier killing Intent. I was simply in a foul mood."

The Fenrir who had introduced himself as Andreus gave a heart laugh. Then a droplet of blood stained his fur, "So this is all the time I have left? Well at least I got to meet you child. I guess you'll get your sword earlier than you thought huh?"

"Andreus!"

I rose to my feet immediately, and started crying once more, "Please don't go! After finally meeting someone who understands me in this world I can't have them leave this fast!"

"Boy, people come and go. You of all people should know this, I'm sorry for not being able to join you. But I'll give you a gift, my power. There are 2 ways to create a God Blood as you humans call them, one is to direcently inherit the bloodline. I assume you understand what I mean by that, the second way is for the God Beast to willingly allow you to consume it. In other words, devour me. Then take the sword and be on your way."

"What? I, I can't do that? I can't eat someone like you, someone who understands me. The only person to understand me within this world!"

"Would you rather see my body rot away into nothingness? Or I'll make you do it by force."

He released his pressure once more, tears kept streaming down my cheeks as if my eyes were water falls. I activated [Monarch's Wrath] and resolved myself before forcing myself to take a bite.

He gave a heart laugh before saying, "How Ironic for The God Devouring Beast to be devoured upon by a human. Well whatever, make good use of my power you brat"

More tears came down, but I kept eating, I didn't stop. I devoured everything, I ate his bones, his eyes and whatever else there was. All there remained was a bloodstained sword, I licked even that clean so as to not waste any of my friend's body...
