2023-10-15 03:29:48The girl appears in a realm, this is the divine realm, a place inhabited by gods. A wave spreads out of the girl as it covers the entire divine realm. A map is made in her head, a section of the map is blinking.
“That must be where the god who cursed her lives.” She vanishes as she appears in a bed chamber, on the bed were 3 people/gods. They seem to be up to something.“Having fun?” the 3 people are startled up and their faces are now seen, a god and 2 goddesses. They are surprised about how a little girl appears all a sudden.“Who are you?!” the god roars out loud as a shockwave leaves him, he rises to his feet of 7 meters as he releases his pressure in the room. He’s trying to suppress the little girl but she doesn’t even notice it.Girl looks at the goddess on the right with red hair and white skin, “Why did you curse the little girl?”“What little girl?” the red-haired goddess still has no idea what is happening.“YOU DARE IGNORE ME?! I’M THE PRIMORDIAL GOD OF DESTRUCTION!” the god releases pressure from him even more as the second goddess, a fish woman of some kind kisses his cheeks.“Calm down sweetie, you don’t have to waste your mana on a small fry like that.”“Licia, she lives in Zolkia.” The little girl asked.“Oh, I remember. I cursed the little twerp because I wanted to see her suffer. Seeing the beautiful little ones suffer is quite entertaining.” The red-haired goddess chuckles. They are gods, they think no one can harm them. “*Sighs* Every universe has gods of these kind” The little girl speaks to herself, “Now I know why Master nearly wiped them out.”The god of destruction is confused by what the little girl said, “What do yo- “Energy/Mana left the girl as the 3 gods are strangled in the air. Shock fills their faces especially the god, he is a primordial god, the strongest of the strong. And a little girl has him as a toy.“A primordial god, ancient god and…… hah, you’re only at god rank. There’s no need to waste my breathe on you, I’ll start with the fish. Although innocent you walk with the corrupt.” she opens her hands as EP/Energy/Mana leaves it as it makes an EP arrow and blows her head off. “As for the primordial loser, DON’T PISS ME OFF!” she made a pulling gesture with her hand as the primordial god is sucked dry of his EP. He loses his divinity and becomes mortal. Worse of all she even makes him as strong as a 10-year-old. She makes a drop gesture with her hand as a rift appears below the 2 remaining gods. The former primordial god drops to the Under realm. A realm filled with the enemies of the gods, the devils.The former god, “ARRRGGHHH!” and he fell. Red hair goddess was choking while speaking, “P…P….Please…spare me.”“Spare you? You cursed a little girl for fun…. Alright, I won’t kill you” Red hair goddess seems hopeful” I guess I need a new stuffed toy.” The goddess is confused but she understood toy which sent shivers down her spine.Girl drops her stuffed animal as it changes into flesh. The flesh is groaning in pain as tears are seen around the eyeballs and it dies. Red hair goddess is so scared she wants to cry, “W…W…Who are you?”“A child of Nightmare.” Replied the girl. She made a clasping motion with her hands. The goddess disfigures and molds into a pink stuffed monkey. She caught it and checked it out.“So a monkey huh. Don’t worry, you’re still conscious though you can’t do anything. I thought of making you lift the curse but it wouldn’t benefit me if you did it, so don’t worry about the curse.” The goddess is pleading in pain as a stuffed animal but….She makes another rift and walks through it, no one heard anything or even sensed her.………………………………………………………………………………..Back on earth, Flint wakes up in the morning around 5am, things are different as a display is before him. It shows his name under a big ‘WELCOME’ right before his eyes. The words are typed before his eyes as he hears it in his head.“Wha! Wha!” He fell off the bed, “What’s this!” he stares in fear at the display.“Calm down, I’m SSTM DC. I just activated 6 hours ago and an ally.”“An ally?”“Yes, my objective is to help you grow strong.” Flint tries to calm himself.“I prayed for a miracle for my sister, not for me….. Wait, can you cure diseases?!” he is getting his hopes up.“From my Knowledge Base, No…..” Flint felt his hope disappear, “But I can show you the ingredients needed for a cure, provided I can determine the disease.” Flint has his hope returned.“You can tell me the ingredients I need? Then how do I show you?”“I see what you see.” Flint ss still for a while, then he gets up and rushes out of his room and turns to Licia’s. he sees his mum asleep by her bed, he walks towards Licia and stares at her.“Scanning……..”Licia is scanned as her body and organs displayed before Flint. Good thing he has no knowledge about anatomy.“Scanning complete. Analysis complete. Target has traces of Divine EP residue. Conclusion, a curse.”“What! A curse.” Despair is creeping up on him again.“Get these herbs and boil them for her to drink. It will nullify the curse.” Flint was shocked, yet he recognized the herbs.“Nullify?..... I know these herbs.” He leaves the room at full speed to the farm. He reaches there and plucks the herbs which were only 3. He rushed back into the kitchen and sees Aku there, her hands are shaking as she tries to make breakfast. Flint barges in,“Flint! Wha! Huh! What are you doing!” Aku is surprised by his sudden entrance. Flint has taken a pot and has herbs in his hands, he starts to boil it on the stove as he is silent. The Mysterious little girl appears on the tree top and is watching this with a smile on her face.“Flint! STOP!” Aku holds him. “Let me go Aku, I think this can save Licia.” Aku looks deep into his eyes and lets him go, in a while the mixture boils as SSTM DC notifies him. Flint runs upstairs and is stopped by his mother“Stop, what is that?!”“It’s a cure.”“Those herbs can’t cure anything, you’ll kill her.” Just then his father walks in. “Let him do it Patricia, we have no way to help her. She’ll die anyway.”“So we let him poison her?!” Patricia is frightened at the words.“I’m willing to risk it for this tiny shred of hope than to lose my baby girl” John speaks with his voice breaking and tears started to stream down his eyes.“….. Okay.” Patricia steps aside as Flint goes to Licia’s bedside and slowly pours the mixture into Licia’s mouth. They pray in their hearts for a miracle, and 1 happens.*Cough Cough Cough*“Li. Li!” Patricia is the first to react, she goes to Licia and sees with her own eyes as Licia opens her eyes, “Mama, my throat hurts.”“Licia!” John moved so quickly to the bedside as he holds her hands, “My little girl.”“What’s wrong?” Licia has no idea what happened. Flint watches with a smile as Aku hugs him whispering, ‘Thank you, thank you, thank you’.Patricia leaves quickly to prepare a meal as Aku follows her to the kitchen. Leaving John, Flint and Licia in the room.“Licia, wait for you mother, okay?" John spoke to Licia with joy.”Okay.” She still had no idea what happened.John turns to FLint, “Come with me son.” Flint goes to hugs Licia before following John to his room. When he enters, John hugs him tight. “Thank you so much. Thank you for not giving up.” John says as tears streams down his face though he tries to stop it.Flint also teary, “Dad, you said a man mustn’t cry no matter what. But I’m just so happy!” they hug again. “It’s all thanks to the miracle from God.” The Mysterious girl slips and falls from the tree top to the ground *BAANNG*“Which god? Tell me so I’ll worship Him.” John is curious as to which god makes this miracle.“The God who listens.”John was surprised, “I’ve never heard of such a God. Then, to the God who listens, thank you for the life you spared.”The Mysterious girl got up and dusted herself, “I guess the Creator is to thank since He made it possible for us to win our war.”The news reaches the people as they celebrates the recovery of a little sun in the village. The SSTM DC is silent this whole time as they celebrate. Well, the men went on a drinking spree and their wives yelled at them, the usual.The Mysterious girl watches as they celebrate with a grin, she waves her hand as a screen appears before her. “What type of missions should I give him? Heheheheh, this is actually fun.”

After a week passed, life returns back to normal except Flint is waking up early now. Flint goes to the farm as usual and when it’s time to rest, he goes back to the crash site. He’s hoping to know if what happened was a dream or not. He climbs the hill and sees the crash site.“It really was a dream, there’s nothing here.” A Mysterious girl appears from thin air but Flint doesn’t see that. “Well duh.” the girl giggles.

The next day Flint wakes up energetic, he goes to check on Licia and sees her as chirpy as ever.“I can get satisfied just from seeing my sunshine. All the world's hunger can be cure from seeing her.”“Good, then I’ll leave your lunch home today.” Flint is shocked to see his elder sister, Aku behind him also spying on Licia.“Wait! Not lunch!” “Hahaha, here you go Filly.” She drops the lunch on his head, not the food but in a container. Flint catches it and gave his sister a kiss on the cheek.“You’re the best!” he says running out to meet his father to head to the farm and Aku replies as he leaves, “I know.” Aku got back to work around the house.Flint and his father reached the farm like any other day and worked from morning till noon then they rested. He finally spoke to his father.“Dad, I’d like to spend some time with Twenny.”“Oh, we’re done with work so you can go, I’ll handle watering the plant.

Light and Darkness: Barimah's Odyssey Begins with the First Step
Outside the cave, Twenny is watching Flint through her screen. She sat on a rock and was staring at the sky. That's what a normal person would think when they see her.“I know I’m the only Xeno in this universe but I’m starting to feel like a tutor rather than a Calamity. Well there’s no one here who can teach him so I guess Arrmitsha made the right choice.” She is waiting as she sees Flint get up.Inside the cave, Flint got to his feet a little too quickly.“Wooaahh, was I always this light? I guess the level up thing did that. I should ask Twenny to give me lessons and about the Crystal herbs. System DC didn’t say anything about it.” He leaves the cave and sees Twenny watching the sky, he tries the appraisal on her since he kinda knew what it does. Twenny looks at him from the corner of his eyes, she gets up and walks to him.“Be careful when you use that, some people can tell. It’s also rude..…Hey, you learned magic. Awesome!" She jumps in excitement. "I didn’t know sitting in a cav

He has a broad smile as he stares at Twenny and she stares back.Twenny clears her throat, “Ahem….Aren’t you supposed to say something?”“Ah, You look beautiful today.” Flint smiles again, then.*BANG* Twenny use a stick to hit him. Flint holds his head as if he’s been wronged, Twenny walks past him and turns to him. “You’re supposed to say ‘Good morning teacher’.” Flint is surprised, “Eh?” Twenny grips the stick as Flint shivers, “G..Good morning teacher!” he bows. Twenny smiles, “Very good. Follow.”Twenny leads Flint out of the village to a plain just on the other side of the village. Flint gets curious and asks, “So, what are you going to teach me?”“Hmph, it’s a surprise.” In Twenny’s head, “I have no idea…..

Patricia smiles, “How was your lesson dear?” She gets her seat on a chair this time.Flint stares at them and looks away, “It was great. Though I’m yet to make progress.” He goes to the house. John walks to him and pats his back, “Don’t worry son. The first time is always the hardest.” Flint nods and enters the house, he meets Aku sitting on the couch asleep. Flint smiles and heads to the kitchen, he sees 2 bowls on the table and Licia sitting on a chair also sleeping. “She slept trying to wait for me. She hasn’t finished her food, so cute.” He walks up to the Licia and gently woke her up. “I’m home Li.”Licia rubs her eyes, “Welcome home big brother. *Yawns* Dinner is ready.” She looks over at the table. Flint takes a seat beside her, “Were you waiting for me so we eat

Twenny dresses up as she looks at a screen, no one else can see. She chooses an orange dress with a ribbon tying her hair and stuffed animal.“So, I repeat the series of moves to execute Martial Arts Techniques. Techniques are different from skill. Skills use EP techniques use SP. I’ll wing it.” She steps out of her house to see the 2 doing as told. Aku couldn’t hide her smile as Flint gets on his feet, she signals them to follow as she leads them back to the grass plains.The 2 stands before her as she begins teaching holding a stick and a board.“The basics of combat have 3 forms, offense, defense and both. Offense is to deal damage to your opponent.” She strikes the stick forward like a sword. “Defense is to block damage but it can’t be prevented.” She holds her shield up and lowers her center of gravity pretending to block an attack. “Damage can’t be prevented when an attack lands, even if it deals 0 damage it still affects you.” She pokes Flint with a stick. “Not painful but you f

Wait, its training!” tears threaten to fall but he holds it in, he turns to look at Aku.Tears flow from Aku’s eyes as she forces not to let them, “2 weeks, 2 weeks that spoiled brat used us like toys. First, it’s 100 swings, 500, 1000, then we fought monsters WITH A STICK! THEN A SHIT BATH!” She throws her sword onto the floor. “THAT DEMON’S TRYING TO KILL US!!!” She yells as a red aura surrounds her but she doesn’t notice it.

Ruler verses united god
“There’s one more thing.” The goddess speaks. Thorn looks at her clearly interested. The goddess continues. “If we unite our powers, we can win. Though you’re powerful, our attacks clearly had some effect on you.”“But how?” the shadow god speaks, “Even with our combined attacks the result is the same…..unless….we fuse our powers.” The gods are even shocked by his statement but it is their only option.The fire god speaks, “Then I will receive our powers and defeat this fiend.” The gods agree, Thorn finds this interesting so he’s watching eating a fruit.The gods channel all their power into the god of fire, his level remains the same but his stats clearly rise above that of a primordial god trespassing into the territory or Rulers. The fire god is enshrouded by energy releasing wave after wave of heat and energy.Thorn looks at this with interest in thought, “I’ll have to record this and send it to Master or her kin later.” He opens his hand and an obsidian in the form of a sphere dr

The gods are making an announcement to their army on the start of a new war.Far away from this place, on a small floating island covered by clouds. Anna is watching, she’s spying on this pantheon hoping to gain information on the war. The Chief god of the pantheon steps up, “The Demon realm has declared war on us.” He said, “And so we will respond in kind.”Anna watches from afar, “So, war is upon us. It looks like all the pantheons will join the war this time, Master moved the entire demon realm just for this war.” She sighs.Anna keeps observing this pantheon. After what seems like an hour, Anna spreads her wings and flies back to her pantheon. She arrives in the Valkyrie spire, she notices war preparations also going on.

Thorn arrives in his cave and closes the door behind him, a figure like the grimm reaper arrives behind him. The figure is human but has parts of its flesh missing as gold flames comes from the missing parts. This figure is Sers’ true form.Sers lands behind Thorn, “Why did you reveal so much to him?”Thorn glances behind him, “Was it wrong to do so? The kid has to know why he got your attention.”Sers sighs, “It’s not wrong, we just didn’t know how to reveal it to him. As for why he got our attention….Hmmm, think Twenny should tell him.” Sers moves towards a refrigerator in the corner.Thorn shrugs, “Pushing responsibility around, so Xeno like.” He notices Sers reaching for a beer, a chill goes down his spine and he snatches the beer from Sers.Sers is taken aback, “Hey, What’s the big idea?”Thorn puts the beer back in the fridge and gives him juice, “No alcohol for you unless your siblings are here to restrain you.” Sers feels hurt and Thorn continues, “The last time Master got dru

Flint hovers above the ground as he glares at Thorn, Thorn grins and gives him the ‘come on’ wave. Flint taps his feet off the ground vanishing from sight like a blur, Thorn raises his hand up. *CLANG* Flint swung his sword down and Thorn blocked it, Thorn twists and kicks Flint’s stomach. *CRACK* Flint is blown away. Thorn’s eyes open wide as his thoughts, “I didn’t kill him, right? I held back a lot.” Flint smashes into a tree, he slowly gets up as his HP recovers. Thorn grins, “The Master really made a splendid bloodline, sadly it can’t be compared to hers.” Thorn makes a blood barrier as a beam of light hits it, “A fake bloodline is this powerful? No wonder Master could never beat the Messengers of Light.” The blood barrier turns light and disintegrates. Flint taps his feet on the ground and appears before Thorn, Thorn makes a sword and fights back. *CLANG CLANG CLANG CLANG* Flint swings his sword right next to Thorn’s neck as he moves back a bit and dodges.

A week passes as Flint keeps training and comprehending the law of space, Flint is on the training grounds practicing. Flint swings his sword as space seems to bend with his sword.“297. 298. 299. 300.” He drops his sword and rests on the ground, “I didn’t think it’d be this tiring. Somehow this feels harder than Teacher’s training.” Flint raises his hand as a ball materializes in his hand. “Space ball.” He throws it at a tree. *PING* The tree is twisted inwards and outwards till it breaks *CRACK THUD*Flint is able to materialize space, move and control space with ease.

Law Comprehension
Thorn sits on a chair and offers one to Flint, he forgot Licia is still there. “At some point during the Journey to grow stronger, levels become…..bullshit.” Flint is confused and Thorn continues, “You can have the highest level and skills but if you can’t make good use out of it then you’re weak. I’ve witness people fight with a huge level gap yet the lower levelled one won. Combat potential can’t be measure, it’s just your capability to face opponents.”Flint thinks about it, “So if my combat potential is high, I might be able to match up to her?”Thorn’s thoughts, “Sorry but no. Rank also has a say in it, Twenny is a Tittle Calamity, you’ll need more than combat potential to fight on equal footing with her.” Then he speaks, “Against others yes.”Flint feels relieved though he misunderstands, then a question pops into his mind. “Can…you tell me more about Teacher?”Thorn rubs his chin, “There’s not much to say, she’d mostly stay indoors with her sibling watching movies and eating sn

Flint wakes up and stretches with a smile on his face, “What a great morning.” He gets out of bed to the closet and changes into his everyday wear. Flint walks out of his room going downstairs to the bathroom then stops, “That’s odd, I don’t sense Licia around.” Aku is in the kitchen cooking, “Licia went to Twenny’s old cave, she said she’s got a friend there.” Flint’s head pokes through the door, “Did she say what kind of friend?” Aku shakes her head, “Nope, I think it’s an imaginary one since Twenny is the only person to think of living there.” Flint raises a brow, “And monsters?” Aku shrugs, “We haven’t a monster in these parts since Twenny moved in. I’m certain she did something to keep the mo
