A man who failed in life. His only wish was to live in peace. But what he wished for was impossible. In this world, there was no peace. The humanity was barbaric. They were a warmongering race. So peace was impossible. He was caught up in a war between races. The humans were fighting against the demons. So every human kingdom unified and started to attack. So many innocent civilians were sent to the front lines. He was also sent and killed by the demons. As he was dying, he wished for peace. That was his only wish. And his soul left his body. When he opened his eyes he found himself in a white room. Nothing was there. But he should be dead. However he was standing. So he thought he was dreaming. But a voice told him,”You are not dead. You have been chosen by us. We will bestow upon you the title of Hero.”
“No thanks.” He refused bluntly.“Why refuse? Do you humans not want power and fame?”“Maybe everyone but not me. I only value my peace. So I will be happy if you send me to heaven.”The voice stopped. After a brief silence it spoke again.“I have taken a liking to you human. You will not be the hero. But you will bear the blessing. My blessing. By my name, the goddess of night and moon I give you the power of nothingness. You are an eternal void which swallows everything. And the blessing of immortality. You have eternal youth now. You have the access to the divine library without restrictions and you have mastered all elements. These are my blessings for you. Now show me, how you can maintain your peace.”After that his body started to glow and his eyes closed. He thought that he was waking up from the dream. When he woke up he found himself in a plain. It was a grassland.“I was clearly not here when I fell asleep.”But then he remembered everything he saw in his dream. He tried to figure out what was different. But he felt totally normal. So he gave up and started walking. The grasslands was big. He didn’t feel like leaving that beautiful landscape. So he started to live there.“The voice said that I have elements mastery. So let’s try.”He tried to manipulate the earth and without even chanting the earth was split. He made a hole just by thinking about it. He made it his home and started living there. And so he continued his peaceful life but it would be interrupted soon enough.“I am tired.” Said a girl. She flings her hand in the air and said. She is clearly worn out from work. She has black hair and red eyes. A cute face and small frame. But she was not ordinary. She is an adventurer. A highly capable one at that. Returning from finishing a job she said that. “Don’t say that. We are all equally tired.”Said a girl from behind. Another girl nodded. She was not alone. She is in a all girls party. There are 3 of them. “But I am especially tired today, Belle.” Said the black haired one. She called the one who retorted Belle. “But this job was your choice. You chose to exterminate the 30 tiger wolves. So it’s your fault.” Said Belle. The third one who was sitting quietly said,“Yeah. But we got almost killed too. So be a little careful, Aisha.” She called the black haired girl Aisha. “I will.” Aisha made a blank face. “By the way aren’t you a little too calm today, Leah.” The quiet girl was called Leah.“I am thinking about something.” Leah said.“What? I
They entered his house. They all had a similar thought that it’d be a terrifying place. But when they looked around,they were surprised. More like let down. They thought that he would live in a dungeon. But it was a normal house. A completely normal house. Just that it was underground.“Make yourselves at home. I live alone here. But I should call her too. For you girls can take it easy.” Jacob said and went into a room.“Is it really his house? It looks totally normal.” Aisha said.But Leah had a different approach.“No. Everything here is made from or with magic. The furnitures have a protective spell cast on them. It is indestructible.”(l)“What? The furnitures are indestructible. Let’s check it.” Belle said and unsheathed her sword. She took a attack stance and swung her sword at the chair in front of her. But much to everyone’s surprise it was unscathed. The chair didn’t even have a single mark on it. This annoyed Belle. So she kept attacking. But the chair remained the same. On
Aisha and Selene were looking at him expectantly. He was in a bind. Because he never told anyone about his previous life. He was thinking about what to tell them. But he said,”Why don’t we wait for them to wake up? It will be a bother if they don’t hear it from the beginning.”“That’s true. But I can’t wait. You are someone who I don’t understand. And you speak with a god as if she was your wife.” Aisha said that. But it was wrong. How did she get that idea was even a mystery for Jacob himself. Selene on the other hand was quite happy. “That’s just how I talk to her. But she’s not my wife.” He denied it strongly. Not even a sliver of hesitation.“You are too cold. Can’t you just admit that we are married.” Selene made statement with a big smile.“But we are not. Besides I am not into cuckolding. I don’t want other mans wife.” Jacob said.“How rude. For your info I am still single and a virgin on top of that. How did you get that idea?”“I thought you had 53 children with three men.
His parents house was pretty normal. A normal house for a four person family. It is common. But Aisha and co had never seen anything like that. So they were pretty hyped up. He didn’t waste his time and quickly went upstairs to his room. He told the others to sit in the drawing room. They sat in the drawing room as he went upstairs. He did not expect to find anything but when he opened the door his stuff was there. His books and manga collection were present. So he just took all of them and put them in his storage box. He created a space with infinite storage. He uses it to store things. After that he went downstairs and saw them chatting. “Well my work is done. What do you girls want to do?”“I want a full tour. I want to see this fascinating world. It’s too different from our own. So I’d like to see it.” Leah said it. Because she was a wizard, her scholar mind couldn’t stave off the temptation. Akatsuki didn’t say anything. Selene and the others didn’t say anything. So it’s likely
“I just healed my wound and cleaned the mess. What’s so wrong with that?” He asked.“No. But it happened too fast. Just how fast was it?” Selene asked.“Not much. I am probably out of practice. It would instantly heal the moment I cut it. But it was left alone for a long time. So I lost my edge.” He let out a wry smile and said.“I am amazed at how you can say such things with that straight face. You really are a blockhead.” Selene said.“Enough fooling around. Let’s go. But before that erase her memory.” He said to Selene.“What? Don’t you want her to know that you are alive?”(s)“No. She’ll be deemed mad if she tells anyone. So it’s better for her to stay out of this. Also I am not her brother any more. I have died twice. So I am a different person.”Mizuki was trying to understand the current situation. She was fidgeting. But she asked,“Are you my brother?”“No. I am a different person. I have been reborn twice. So I am a completely different person. You shouldn’t think about it t
“What are they talking about? I cannot go in because Selene is acting weird. She really scares the hell out of me.”This was his monologue. He was laying down on grass right next to his giant hole. He closed the hole and was lying down on the down. He thought that they would be talking for a while. So he slept.He was sleeping on the grass. Because of his aura, no monster dared to come close and humans don’t come in. So he had nothing to worry about.And the girls were just dumbfounded. Akatsuki did some really outrageous things that didn’t have any meaning. Selene was particularly annoyed with him. Mizuki and Momoko were trying to grasp the situation. Aisha and co were sorting out about what should they do. They didn’t talk for a while. But Mizuki broke that silence.“So in short, my brother was framed and then misunderstood by all and then murdered. That’s the gist of it.”“Yes. If you see it that way, that’s it.” Selene said.“But who killed him?” This was Momoko’s question. She
His remark made Aisha silent. That silence flowed for a while. It was awkward. The situation became awkward. “Anyway, Belle give me that sword.” He said. Belle looked at him and gave him the sword.“When you swung the sword a crack appeared in the ground. Do you want to see what happens when I do that?” He said with a smirk.It was something everyone wanted to know. Just how strong is he?“Hey Selene, this might hurt a bit. But I’ll listen to you later.” He said. His eyes were serious and also apologetic.Selene first didn’t understand. But then he pointed at the moon and she knew it.“Don’t do it.” Selene screamed.But he swung the sword in the moon’s direction. A violent gale appeared. Blowing everything away and a black slash could be seen.That slash headed to the moon and only a few seconds later the moon was cut in half.Everyone looked up at the moon and stared at with half open mouth. They had disbelief written all over their faces. However the moon was cut in half and Sel
With 7 Akatsuki standing in front of them, they were at a loss.All 7 of them looked the same but the air around them were different. Like their personalities changed.All of them were talking with each other and then they turned to the girls.“Sorry for confusing you. Let’s clear our the situation.” One of him said.“He went to Pluto’s place to talk with him. But that bastard Pluto, attacked him and split his mental consciousness.” Another of him said.So basically he was split. And Pluto did that.“So his mental consciousness or psyche was split?” Selene tried to understand the situation.“Well that’s the gist of it.” One of him said.But all 7 seven of him were exactly the same. So it was confusing for the girls.“So in that case who are you supposed to be?” Mizuki asked.“Well I am Superbia.” The one standing in right said.They made a line and stood from right to left. Superbia was the one in the most right.And all of them introduced themselves.From Superbia, there stood Invid
I am currently with Constant. We are headed for the human world.“I say the human world but it was actually created by one of the humans. There exists a plenty of human worlds. This is just one of them.” (Constant)He said that and now we are walking through a portal he created.The portal left us at a field. It’s a normal field. “This is a world that was created by one of my friends. This is also my first time coming here. Let’s find a city or town.” (Constant)We both start walking. The area is nice. It’s sunny but not hot. The wind is gently blowing caressing my whole body. Somehow, I get the feeling that I know this sensation.After walking for about 15 minutes, we arrive at a small town. It looks like a medieval town. Stone houses and stone paved roads. It has proper water drainage system and the town’s folk look clean. “The town is called Solomon. It is named after a wise king. Today is supposed to be a festival. But what, I don’t know.” (Constant)So a festival. The town is k
After he got ready, we left that place. I don’t know where that is but we left it anyway. He tapped on a portion of the wall and it opened revealing a spiral portal.“Off we go.” He said and jumped into it. I also did. Portals like this are basically connected to a random place. I don’t know where I would end up at.After coming out, I see a residential area, I think. Concrete road, houses on each sides and a pond. Seriously, a pond. This is the first time, I am seeing an open pond.I find Constant sitting on a bench by the pond. The pond is kinda green. And it’s dirty.“See, this is the area I spent my childhood in.” (Constant)“Hoohhh…then you grew up here?”“Yes. It holds a special meaning to me. Behind us is a library. It doesn’t look like it though.” (Constant)He points at a pink building. It has something written on it but I can’t read that. I sit by him. Despite being dirty, this pond is kinda calming.“You see, to our left is my school.” (Constant)He pointed to our left and
After a good night’s sleep, I woke up. I don’t even know if a night has actually passed or not but I woke up exactly when my body usually tells me to. I will assume a night has passed. Constant, my so called creator, is sleeping on his bunk. I get out of bed and look for the kitchen. But wait, this is just a white room. Does this even have a kitchen?But my question was answered. A portion opened up and I could see a kitchen like space. It has everything a normal household kitchen has.Maybe it has everything necessary and for the ingredients, I open the fridge and find everything. It has different types of meat, fish, dairy products, eggs, vegetables, all sorts of condiments and what not. Hell, even deserts were there. The fridge definitely uses spatial manipulation to store more things. I take out some eggs and bacon. I open the down drawer and find rice. Let’s have it for lunch. But now I need bread. I open the big metal door which was beside the fridge and see stairs.It leads
A few days have passed since all of those. I am back at my own house in the world I was born in. Mizuki, Mary, Selena and Nino live with me.Life has been well. I feel that my journey is over. But a sense of discomfort still lingers. Why do I feel so unsatisfied? I can’t describe this feeling. But something is amiss.Is it over? My story was such a short one. I can’t even believe it myself. The discomfort in me grows. All of them are out shopping. I am currently house-sitting. I am bored. Maybe that’s why I felt like that? I close my eyes and kinda doze of.◇◇◇◇◇“Wake up, Akatsuki.” I hear a voice. A man’s voice but it’s similar to mine. I open my eyes to find myself. Eh!! I am looking at myself.“Don’t make such a stupid face. I am not you.” The mysterious guy who looks like me says. But if he isn’t me then who is he?“This is the first time I am meeting you. You can call me whatever you want. Father, brother, god, author…anything you want. Because I am all of them.” What is th
Currently I am at my house. Mary and Mizuki have been summoned to this world as heroes. Selena came as Selene’s priestess. The Valkyries have become their guides and Medea is responsible for all of this.However, staying there was kind of uncomfortable so I teleported all of us to my house. My house is not big enough to house everyone so I expanded it with spatial magic.We are all sitting on sofas with me in the center. Mizuki and Mary are quite at me. Selene was talking to me and she sounded angry as well. Midway through, she changed with Selena. Medea is tittering and I am very tired.“Do tell me Akatsuki, what have you been doing these 5000 years?” (Selene)“It’s confusing if you keep changing with Selena. But mostly sleeping I guess. I went on a short trip after my deal was over and then came here, dug a hole and fell asleep. I woke up a few days ago when they found this place.”I point at the Valkyries. They became stiff. “So, you have been sleeping for 5000 years. Sounds total
And the day of the summoning came. As I promised, I am at the summoning point where Medea will summon them. The point is actually a platform which is inside the castle premises.I asked Medea if it was alright to come and she gave me her yes. I teleported immediately with Aisha, Belle and Leah in tow.When I finished teleporting, I was met with a small squadron of armed combatants. They were ready for something.And when I stood in the room, they pointed their spears towards me. I am tired of this. I see everyone is present. I see a gaudy chair on which a middle aged man is sitting. He has a different aura from the rest and is probably the king.He is sitting behind a big golden chair. Probably for Medea. When the king saw me, he jumped. I can see his veins bulging. I see Medea standing in the middle of a circular podium. She is smirking at me.“Medea, enough of your tricks. You clearly didn’t tell them that I was coming, did you?” She just stuck her tongue out and made an oops fac
(Aisha POV)We have reached Akatsuki’s house. I mean, the plain he lives in. However, how do we enter? He lives underneath this plain.“Belle, can you cut this land with your sword?” I ask Belle. But she nodded sideways. She can’t. I knew that she can’t. Why did I ask something so impractical of her?But the ground split open and the stairs were visible. Maybe he is letting us in.“Let’s go.” (Leah)Leah is really eager to meet him again. Maybe because he is the unknown. As a mage, her instincts are telling her to investigate him.We go down the stairs and knock on the wooden door. And the door opens. Behind the door, we see Akatsuki.“Welcome again. I was waiting for you to arrive.” (Akatsuki)He said. We enter and he closed the door. Then he led us to the sofa and we took seats.“I know that you have many questions. I will try to answer them as easily as possible.” (Akatsuki)He took a breath and said. He actually knew that we would ask him many questions.“So, who are you?” I cou
Hello. Nice to meet you. I am the author and the narrator of this god forsaken and bad story.I generally don’t interfere with the story however, I messed up so badly that I had to interfere not once, not twice but three times.It just happened because I messed up the pacing. I put so many traits in this story, so many cliches that messed the story that I had to restart.I would say that the reboot is going well however I am getting impatient. I don’t have a specific ending planned.Who am I kidding? I am a guy who is spending his time, aimlessly for the last 250 billion years.So yeah, I want a break. I think at the end of the story, I would invite Akatsuki.He is basically my better half and we would have a nice chat. After that, I would quit as an author and go on a trip. My shut in days have continued long enough. It’s time to face reality which I totally despised.Now let’s go back to the story. Akatsuki has met Medea and the Valkyries. Last time, I didn’t give their party a nam
The three of them are fully equipped. Two days have passed since then. They are going there again to investigate.“Should we really go back?” (Aisha)“Yes. That’s a mystery. As adventurers, we can’t let a mystery stay a mystery. We have to unravel it and take the treasure.” (Belle)“You two just want the treasure!” (Aisha)Aisha was spot on. Belle had her eyes on that sword and Leah just wanted the branch of the world tree.They left albeit Aisha was reluctant. And it took them an hour to reach there.Am eerily calm circle in the middle of the forest. It’s daytime and the forest is crawling with monster. But in this circle, no monster is there. “You can’t believe it when you see it for the first time, can you?” (Aisha)“A huge hole will open up in the middle. That sounds like a legend.” (Belle)“But it does. Now, let’s get moving.” (Leah)Leah was unusually enthusiastic. Probably because of the mystery.They keep walking but something entered their sight. A man is lying down on the g
