The puddle of water, which depicted this unforgettable image, shocked the man. Time passed but he didn’t retract his lingering gaze, his mind somewhat traumatized.

‘At last, you’ve seen it. This face… YOUR face, which will stick to you until the end of your life. So deeply engraved on your mind, satisfying your previous curiosity and completing a part of your newly-formed character.’

Just the cognitive voice finished speaking, the other one continued, its tone gentler.

‘Child, you’ve seen it and you must adore it. Look, I, no, we are not mocking or laughing at you. We’re crying for you, Tenebris, who took a peek at reality and can never leave it again. Oh, child, who wanted to see us, yourself, do not brood. What the heart keeps and the mind thinks is what truly matters.’

Contrary to the previous times, Tenebris’ mood wasn’t alleviated by the soothing voice, which, actually, hasn’t introduced itself yet.

He stopped looking at himself only when his stomach started releasing unpleasant

    ‘A ruin… great.’Tenebris heard himself complain but he maintained total silence as he got up and looked around, curious about where exactly he is. No one in Dochty mentioned the existence of such a place, which appeared to be some kind of ruins, and old ones, at that. The random hole he found was easily noticeable yet no one seemed to have fallen into that ‘trap’, plus, this lonely place looked unvisited for several months, at the bare minimum.This room was covered in dead insects, dirt and broken pottery. There were torches hung on the walls but none of them were burning, making it even more difficult for the man to see his surroundings. The light coming from the hole up above did provide some illumination but it wasn’t enough.‘You know what’s usually found in ruins?’In response, Tenebris shook his head, once to the right, once to the left.‘Monsters, abominations!’The man unconsciously shivered and his body stiffened as he realized that he was alone and defenseless in an unknow

    Lucy barely managed to land on the ground: She coughed a bit of blood and wasn’t able to stand up properly.Leiu wanted to support her but she raised his hand and stopped him.“I’m… fine. I just overexerted myself.”Among all her abilities, the frey flames, which was the combination of Ice and Fire, two opposing elements, tired her greatly even if she used a little bit of it. Alas, she had to use a lot of it against the unknown Outer God.“I’m sorry about your Guardians.”The White Specter wiped the blood off the corner of her lips and slowly stood up. She could see the sombre expression on the Dark Knight’s face.He knew how dangerous this unplanned ‘mission’ was going to be, nevertheless, the loss of Amon and Milkan did affect him.

The fear of losing everything was starting to haunt his mind.Lucy didn’t comfort him, she l

    “So, this is Earth.”Once Anne was done training and Leiu ate his fill, he teleported them to Earth.They appeared in the facility he had attacked five years ago. The place was abandoned and left destroyed, though the corpses and vehicles were all gone.The Vampire, who had been excited to see a new world ,was left disappointed by the plain landscape. Other than the facility, the destroyed fence, and the woods, there was nothing particularly interesting or new.“We’re away from civilization. It shouldn’t take us a long time to reach Seoul.”Of course, Leiu wasn’t going to search for the ISB on his own. He was going to visit Hye Nari, hoping that she was still working at that internet café.“Hmm… okay.”While constantly looking around, Anne got on the back of Onyx and held onto the Dark Knight.The Starspeed Leopard growled and then shot into the woods. Within thirty minutes, hundreds of miles were crossed and the two reached the outskirts of Seoul. Although Onyx was ridiculously fas

    Once outside, Anne faced Leiu and, curious, asked,“What’s a date?”“...”The concept of a date wasn’t entirely uncommon on Astria. Still, Anne had seldom left the Kantika Isles, and her knowledge of social stuff was worse than his.“Do you not know?”Embarrassing as it was, Leiu chose to speak the truth rather than lie.“It’s when two people, usually romantically involved, go and have fun together.”“Is that so? Okay.”Anne’s expression didn’t change, she looked at the nearby shops and restaurants before speaking again“Can we go to the Amusement Park? That looked pretty interesting.”“We have to get you clothes first.”“Ah… right. Okay.”…As she didn’t know anything, Leiu had to search for a good store, which there were many of, fortunately.Very soon, Leiu led her into one of the shops, one which didn’t have ridiculously expensive clothes.“Welcome!”One of the workers ran up to the two of them.“We’re just browsing, thank you.”“If you need anything, please call me.”And thus, Le

    After what happened in the Amusement Park, Leiu and Anne returned to the Eternal Abyss Manor.They could have gone to a hotel, but the manor was free and more spacious.Once they appeared in the dimly-lit luxurious manor, Leiu awkwardly stood there, not knowing what to do.They had thoroughly enjoyed their day, became lovers, and solidified their relationship.Overall, the day couldn’t have been better for both of them. However, whether it was Anne or Leiu, both had little to no experience in romance.“Come on.”As he was lost in thoughts, contemplating what to do, Anne grabbed his hand and walked upstairs. She took him to the biggest bedroom, the one he usually rested in.“Anne?”When he called her name, she turned to look at him. She noticed his confused face, which, funnily enough, made her confused.“What?”“... why are we here?”With a straight face and an unwavering voice, she responded, “It’s too early to sleep, at least for you. We are together right now, aren’t we? And we’re

A helicopter or other vehicles would have alerted the ISB.Once the square shaped white building came into view, Leiu and Anne dismounted.[Child of Darkness]Before the action began, Leiu unleashed a monstrous quantity of Darkness. It rose in the air and then transformed into an enormous pitch-black cube that trapped the facility inside of it.It cost a lot of Mana for Leiu to maintain the cube, but he had to ensure no one teleported away.Darkness was an active element, speeding up the flow of mana and ensuring that spatial displacement, which required stable energy, wouldn’t occur.Inside the cube, the building and its vicinity were covered in a cold world of darkness, rendering visibility extremely difficult.[Dark Waves]With Anduril in his hand, Leiu leapt in the air and swung downwards, at the small building.An explosive blast o

    (Author note: Another short story of Tenebris. This isn't necessarily AFTER the other story. Chronologically, I mean.)****Tenebris took deep breaths and he followed the rest of the platoon with heavy steps. His sweaty hand was holding a long blade. A tool only meant to kill, one which he wasn’t used to holding, much less using.Not long ago, he had been conscripted into the Imperial Army, and as if things couldn't get any worse, he was sent along with other new conscripts into the Mystical Forest.Home of the nomadic elves, this vast forest was twice as big as the Empire itself, though most of it was covered in thousands of trees, clustered together and obfuscating everything, including the long-forgotten ancient ruins.“They’re sending us to die!”One of the men walking in front of Tenebris, a youth with tanned skin- which indicated his Southern origin- cursed with a soft voice. He was equally as terrified as all the rest as he cut through the thick vegetation with his sword.They

    As Leiu saw Anne get hit and then her body literally disintegrated by the beam, his mind went blank. The clear blue sky was instantly blanketed by a creeping Darkness: The Dark Knight shot toward the massive alien ship, but before he could attack it, it shot upwards and tore through the Darkness.Before it was out of view, Anduril absorbed all the Darkness and then shot a monstrously big blast that chased after its target.Smoke and flames erupted from the back of the triangularly-shaped ship, however, it wasn’t enough to stop its escape.Soundlessly, Leiu stood there in a temporary daze. Thereafter, he turned the tip of Anduril towards him and stabbed himself in the chest.There was a lot of resistance, but eventually, it pierced his heart and ended his life.[The skill ‘Re; Hell Gate’ has been activated][Returning to saved chapter][One charge remaining]The procedure was instant as Leiu found himself seated in front of Hye Nari.Although Amos had escaped, Leiu had succeeded in ta

    Outside of Black Mountain City“The Red Moon hasn’t changed.”Vins remarked as he looked to the sky. “I thought you’ll come back once it is time.”“I didn’t want to come fetch you at the last second. Plus, it won’t be long before the Hell Gate appears.”Vins didn’t argue back, he solemnly nodded once. Although his relationship with Leiu was bad, there was no need to provoke him at any given opportunity.They were enemies, and the fact that Leiu actually came back to get him meant that, to some extent, his words had convinced him a bit, at least enough to let him come along.“In the meantime, we’re going after Void Rifts.

    Leiu spent quite a long time in the Studying Room. Unfortunately, the available information about the Reverie Comos was lacking and unsatisfactory. It just told him what he already knew: The Reverie Cosmos was a separate plane of existence in Mundus, not unlike the Harrowing. It was accessible only to those with ‘high’ spiritual energy, which was simply not enough to go on.Although, even if Leiu knew how to enter it, he wouldn’t go there, at least not now.There were much more pressing matters than delivering Lost Witch to the Reverie Cosmos. The Hell Gate was about to open and he needed to be there when it did. Once he was done with his pondering, Leiu went to talk to Sumbus Darrar.“So?”The old man was in the ‘Living Room’, gobbling down the delicious feast without a care in the world.After wiping his oily lips, the Necromancer awkwardly laughed,“Her name is Emilia. She told me she doesn’t remember what happened… only that you killed her and then she woke up after we killed

    “It’s over…”The Elven Chevalier had a look of relief and fatigue on her face. She kept holding on her blade as she stared at Tenebris.Unlike her, he looked absolutely miserable. Whether it was his dirt-covered pale-face, his sweaty and greasy hair, his trembling and bloodied hands, or his shredded clothes.“Hold on. I’ll heal you.”With slow steps, she approached him, unaware that a tiny pit of flesh crawled on the ground and leapt at her arm.“Watch out!”Tenebris saw it first, but his warning came too late. Kusomi, panicking a bit, tried to the flesh but it dug into her skin and then went inside her body.Her body instantly flashed with a silver light, an attempt to use overwhelming energy to force out the worm-like flesh.“Ah…”Kusomi fell to her knees and let go of her estoc, her body convulsing and her mouth coughing blood.

It wasn’t Primordial Darkness or simply an overabundance of Darkness energy. This was something else entirely.Before anyone could speak, innumerable lightning bolts pierced through the ‘darkness’, shattering like glass and revealing an empty space not unlike space itself.There were star wars that were far, far away, but most noticeably, the majority of them were caught one supernova after the other.Leiu and Sumbus felt immense dread as an overwhelming pressure assaulted them, locking them into that empty space. Leiu tried to use the Darkness to protect himself but, surprisingly, it wouldn’t come out. It seemed unresponsive and ineffective as if something was sealing it away.Sumbus fared even worse as h

    “Huff… huff..”Leiu was gasping for air aboard the ship’s deck. Anne was hugging him, relieved that he made it out alive.Sumbus was also sitting down, his complexion paler than usual. Before returning to the surface, Leiu closed the Void Rift with the Primordial Darkness. He had less than 20% health remaining and his mind was still befuddled.“I’m… okay, Anne.”“Drink this.”She forced him to drink three Health Potions, which did help with the physical wounds.“Leiu.”The Mermaid Queen stood a couple of feet away.

    Tenebris sat up and proceeded to wear his bloodied and dirty clothes back.‘I’ll be damned. You actually went through with it. I’m impressed, Tenebris.’While pretending as if he didn’t hear the voice, Tenebris looked to the side. Kusomi also properly sat up and stoically looked at him.“It hurt a bit. Other than that… it wasn’t anything special.”‘Hear that, dumbass? No chance you’re getting laid a second time.’After being pressed by the voice, Tenebris eventually relented and had sex with Kusomi. It wasn’t anything dramatic, and from beginning to end, it barely lasted an hour.Although he got to enjoy the soft body of a beautiful elf, Tenebris wasn’t that happy. He had hoped the two of them would ‘feel’ differently amidst the action and pleasure, but no such thing happened.The virgin elf was inexperienced, so he took the lead, but having sex like that didn’t really mean anything.

    With the help of the Dark Archmage’s spell, Leiu and Anne were able to dive underwater and breathe. The Void Incarnate, which wasn’t even a living creature, simply jumped down and transformed into somesort of a hideous hammerhead shark.Leiu really wanted to question it as it never said it could change its appearance, but now wasn’t the time.The four swam deeper and deeper until the Void Rifts were in sight. They let out ominous purple glows, all haphazardly scattered everywhere.Albeit not at full speed, Leiu was able to swiftly reach them and used Primordial Darkness to forcefully close them down. Oddly enough, no Voidspawn came out to attack him. Only Void Riftss were present, which, rather than fortunate, felt like a bad omen.Thus, as they kept descending closer and closer to the seafloor, Leiu got rid of any Void Riftss in the way. It was a tedious but not overly-taxing process.Eventually, however, they reached the two, aforementioned, big Void Riftss. They were massive, but

    “When is the Hell Gate going to open?”After talking with Elena and the rest, Leiu left Black Mountain City altogether. He looked at his newest companion, the fearful Sumbus Darrar.Startled, the old Necromancer looked at the red moon hanging in the sky. Night has yet to fall, but the moon stuck out like a store thumb. It was still waxing, albeit at a very slow speed.“Two weeks, at most.”“And where’s the gate?”“I… I can only locate it when it is about to open.”As he saw the suspicious stare of the Dark Knight, Sumbus vigorously nodded his head while waving his hands around. “I swear, Dark Knight! I do not dare lie to you!”Seeing how the old man behaved, it was hard to think of him as the one from the legends. He was like an obedient dog, following Leiu and doing everything asked of him.In fact, he was sensible enough to notice Leiu’s relationship with Anne, so he treated the Vampire with the utmost politeness and respect.[User, a suggestion: Eliminate the Administrator in-]‘I
