Back at arena."Transforming concept... Adding concept... And distorting concept... Those are the basic abilities of 'shadow'." Arthur explained to his friend, "That means, the boy earlier held back probably too much because he could probably defeat his opponent by just standing still and using his other abilities.""Wait, I thought that shadow is similar to darkness..." William expression became confused."Well, basically, it also work similar to darkness since copying other abilities is easy since you can control the concept of transformations, adding concept, distorting concept, like what I've mentioned earlier. In other words, it's much more powerful than the darkness..."After hearing this, William's expression became more confused than earlier, his mouth was slightly opened as he look at Arthur, blinking his eyes a few times. "If it's more powerful than the crest of darkness, why is it only 4th in the rankings of the strongest crest?""If you listened to our professor when he me
Lost between the line of good and evil.Wondering if this life was ever even real.Strange chills sent shivers down my spine...After seeing the figure appeared who carrying a black scythe.Through his words, his voice whispered filled with shroud of lies.{If you dare, come closer and take a chance.Won't you please give me the privilege for us to dance?Do not fear, do not fret. For I am simply not violent.Why are you the one being silent?When I should be the one consumed by life...Will you just take my hand, a mere angel full of lies?Or will you be the one to put a stake in my life?}Hearing the voice, the boy accepted and jumped,He walked to the figure, and it raised it's arm.The figure chuckled, and revealed a puppet under his cloak.The boy took it's hand and danced with it,As the devil controlled his old and 'new' puppet by himself.~~~"Mom, look! I made a crown made out of flowers!" A child that had a sickly appearance, pale skin that was like a corpse after losing a l
"Ah..."After suffering from a massive headache, Deus wakes up in his room. He rubs his eyes and looks around the room... He tries to sit up, but he is so dizzy that he falls back on the bed. He groans... And thinks..."What happened...?"He tries to sit up again, his head still spinning.... He tries not to move too much... As his head is hurting a lot... He lays back down on the bed, holding his head... What happened last night...? Was it a fight...? The memory is all foggy and hazy to him... He tries to recall what happened..."Did I win...? I think not."As he tried to recall what happened, his room door suddenly swung open.Someone came in - It was Evangeline, the principal.The principal walked over to the Deus' bed and gently sat down beside him.Then she spoke to him, a relieved smile on her face as she said, "You're finally awake. Are you okay?"He looks up at the principal. He then smiles and gives a joke, scratching his bandages wrapped chest as he says it, "Well, at least I
The two finished drinking their drinks. After they finished taking a quick break, they started to leave to go outside. They walked through the halls and out of the building, and they kept on walking until they eventually reached the exit. There were a lot of people there from various different backgrounds, and they all seemed to be enjoying the time they were talking ro their family. Some people were selling food and drinks, while others were playing games and dancing.William seemed to be excited as well, and they decided to explore the whole school together before deciding to go out to the city.Arriving at the city, the two saw many colorful, beautiful and unusual designed lamps hanging around on the streets even though it was still day. However, none of these lamps are lighted up by flame as they were only left hanging as a design outside the buildings and street lamps."Let's go check that store! I heard from some people that it was quite popular for having some unusual yet good-
"Why did my mother have to die because of you?"A girl who had a hair that shine finely like silk looked at the boy before her with an enraged expression. Her eyes were sharp, that if gazes could kill, she would have killed the boy in front of her."Why did she even tried to save you? It's because of you, she was left there to die... If only you didn't exist!"The boy remained silent as he let her throw every words with hate. He couldn't afford to tell her that what happened to her mother and him was actually the opposite. However...He knew that if he told her that, it might cause her to have a mental breakdown... Adding the fact that she was trying to kill him almost every day, she would be consumed by guilt if that ever happens."If only you weren't there, she could have lived enough to see the day tomorrow... Why do you have to become a burden to this family!"Biting her lower lips, the girl stopped after tasting a metallic taste in her mouth. "This is all your fault...!"She gr
[A/N : Apologies guys, I fell on the stairs a 3 days ago. Because after I suddenly got dizzy and my vision turned dark, I accidentally stepped on the side edge of the stairs, so I slipped and fell. Unfortunately, I didn't hit my head because I was able to hold on the... (I forgot what it was called) on time before my head hit the ground. On the other hand, (speaking of hand), I had injured my right hand, that's why I couldn't continue writing this chapter.... Why am I always this clumsy, I have no idea.]"He's fight was harsh..." Arthur sighed exasperatedly, shaking his head and turning his attention to me."Meh... It's fine. It's not like he killed his opponent. A little beating can't cause that much trouble as long as his opponent remained alive after the battle." I replied, slumping my back comfortably at the chair."Still..."Arthur sighed once again after hearing his reply. "Nonetheless, I'm still wondering why Lumine decided to surrender her match? I mean, she could have beat Roc
Time had passed and all three thousand matches of the first year students had come to a close. Now, it was time for the last of the elimination round, the seventh round, to begin. Forty eight matches were about to take place. [A/N : For those who are wondering about how they were able to finish 3,000+ matches and 7 round in one day, it was thanks to the principal's ability. Some of the matches were taken inside her ability because the time inside her mirror world work slower than the time outside.]Unexpectedly, the first match of the round of forty eight would be Arthur's turn, and his opponent was Leigh!Arthur was now heading to his second to the last match for today. Leigh was also with him as they head to the arena together."You're not planning on holding back, aren't you?" Leigh asked, the side of his lips curling upward into a smirk.Glancing at him from his side, Arthur sighed deeply in contempt. He replied, "Your strength is almost matching at mine. If I don't go serious, y
[ Timer left : 00M : 02D : 17H : 03M : 23S ]......Staring at my reflection at the mirror, I gently caressed my face with my two hands and made a gentle smile."I'm back..." I said to myself, heaving a deep sigh of relief before taking a quick shower. I have to hurry up, I'm not sure when's my match is gonna start. I wonder, did Arthur also passed the elimination round...? Probably, yeah since he was the protagonist of this world.I head out from the bathroom half naked with my towel covering my private part from below. Water gently dripped down from my hair to my body as I used the blower artifact to dry my hair quickly.-Foooo!When I was done, I put on my uniform properly before heading out and locking my door behind.-Click!I made my way to the cafeteria to eat some breakfast, because I was feeling too lazy to cook myself some food, and went in line to buy myself some food.[7:39 A.M.]I looked at my watch as I waited for my turn. Hmm? I didn't know why, but for some unknown r
