It was like a hangover after a raging night party. Their heads were aching and their eyes were heavy, so much that they couldn't make out were they were. It was as if they had too much of 'that good wine' and the choking smell in the room made things worse.
"This smells like Nega" Orie groaned as he managed to get up
"What's that?" Shiro asked as he also stood up
"It's actually a 'who" Orie replied
"And he's the king of Dahüd"
Slowly, everyone recovered from the drowsiness and were able to see clearly. Before them was a man sitted on what could only be described as a throne.
It's cushions were pure black and every other part of it was made of gold. The man sitting on it was just as magnificent. His skin was gleaming dark, the brown in his eyes were as the middle part of a sunflower, and his hair shot straight up and was flat at the top. There was no jewelry on him but the mere sight of him brought gold and diamonds into one's thought.
Just by looking at him, one could tell that he was no ordinary person. From the shoes he wore to the cigar he smoked, the only thing they could think of addressing him as was "BOSS"
With a smile he looked at them and said in a very calm and relaxed voice "I'm John Joseph Jamal Jnr"
"But you can call me Nega"
There was silence for about a minute and everyone just stood stunned in admiration. It lasted until Orie made a move broke the silence.
"Negaaa!!!" He said in a low crooked voice as he walked to the king with his hands wide open his knees pointing in different directions, leaving a wide gap in between his legs.
To the surprise of everyone, the king, Nega stood up did same thing walking towards Orie. When they got to each other, they shook hands and hugged while the others stood in a daze.
"How you doing?, market boy" Nega asked as he hugged Orie.
"I see you're still calling me that" Orie replied with a smile
"Anyway I'm doing doing fine" he added
"Sorry for game situation" Nega said apologetically as he pulled away from the hug.
"We were supposed to turn it off" he added
"Don't worry about it" Orie replied
"I kinda enjoyed it"
"So... What's the emergency?"
Meanwhile, the others were murmuring to themselves about the entire situation.
"Wait a minute" Shiro said
"Do they know each other?" Mia asked
"He's a very mysterious fellow" Natsumi commented
"He knows a lot of gods so kings shouldn't be a problem"
"By the way" Yamato said
"Doesn't thas guy have a familiar aura?" He asked
"I feel like I'm powerless in his presence"
"Like I need his permission to do anything at all as far as I'm in his domain"
"Now that you've mentioned it" Shiro said
"I kind of feel the same" Mia added
"Isn't it obvious?" Victor said
"The child we protected in the game is the same person standing with Orie"
"You can even tell by nickname"
"The name 'NEGA' is not just for show"
"So" Orie said
"What's the emergency?" he asked
Nega was silent for brief moment, then he answered.
"The thing is," he said
"One of our fellow priests is dead"
"And there is something strange about his death"
SHIN SEKAI SECRET: Mia lived in Victor's house all her life but she didn't know how they were related.

"I know that you are not one to lie to me but I'm finding it hard to believe that what you're telling me is true" Orie said "If a priest really died, I would've felt it and so would you and every other priest" "It's the one thing we share" "But that didn't happen, did it?" "That's what I'm trying to tell you" Nega replied "His death was confirmed yet I felt nothing" "But that's not even the worst part" he said "So what is the worst part?" Orie asked, then Nega stayed silent for a while before answering "His entire province" he said "Everywhere that received the blessing of his god is in great despair" "There has been drought from the southern borders of Dahüd down to the coastal areas of the continent and it is getting worse by the day" "It's quite normal" Orie replied "The drought will only last until a new priest succeeds him and that only takes a few days" he said as he placed his hand on Nega's shoulder. "Do you think I don't know

"Woe to those that make enemy of the priests of the mighty ones, for their fate is worse than death" "The damned shall mock them, and the hopeless shall look down on them with pity" "The sick will look healthy in comparison to them, and the shall look alive in their presence" "For they have made and enemy of the priest and in doing so, they have made an enemy of his god" These were the words spoken by Orie while he was held in chains in a small isolated room. There was barely enough light for someone to see around but there wasn't that much to see either. It was and quiet clean for a dark isolated room. There was no dirt, no bad odor, no rats. It was only him, some very strong chains and a guard who told him to shut up after he had just finished making a divine declaration. "One of the perks of being a priest..." Orie said as he stood up "...is that sometimes, we are required to make declarations before we take action" "This is so that whoever is making a m

"For a thousand years, I've waited" "For a thousand years, I've held on and anticipated" "For when this day shall come" "My plan is perfect" "There is no chance for failure" "On this day" "A Raiden shall fall" genji muttered as he looked down at Mia who was bound in chains before him. "You know I can hear everything you're saying, right?" Mia asked as she gave him a cold stare. There was nothing intimidating about his appearance, the sound of his voice was not one to strike fear in others. He looked like every other normal guy but his name was not one to be spoken in jest. 'Genji of the Order' was a name feared in the entire underground society. "Oh" Genji said in surprise "I thought you were still sleeping" he added "But it's not like you can do anything about it" "You're completely bound and weakened" "You can't oppose me in your current state" "How sure are you about that?" Mia asked "Very sur..." Before Genji could complet

Natsumi was kept in a much more spacious than the others. It appeared to be an emptied warehouse judging by how big it was. There were a lot of guards inside with her and they were all on high alert. Even though she was chained down, her power still had a little reach and any one that got close froze. "Do you know who she is?" One of the guards asked his colleague and the colleague answered "we are not paid to ask questions" his colleague replied "But you know..." The guard said "Considering her level of power she might be someone of high importance" "I'm just afraid that someone might come for her" "And that might be a bit of a problem" "You worry too much, soldier" his colleague replied "This job has been going smoothly and it will go smoothly" "She hasn't put up any form of resistance" "And I don't think anyone is coming for her" "This place is not easy to find" "And even if someone does find it, there's no way they can break through the

"When try to mess with a king" "I say a word and the chain breaks" "I take a step and the ground quakes" "They come at me with their full strength" "But still I'm someone that they can't take" "Ain't no one that can catch me slipping" "I can't keep count of the a** I'm kicking" "If this was a game they'd say I'm cheating" "Cus they brought guns but their shots are missing" It didn't take long for Nega to break out of his own chains. He was kept in a similar place to Natsumi; an abandoned warehouse with enough space and many guards. His original plan was to wait for whoever Masterminded his and teach him a lesson but after waiting for a long time
SHIN SEKAI: SPARK OF THE NEW WORLD I want problem
"This is commander Hughes of the Freeland special forces" the man on the helicopter said loudly through the megaphone "You are trespassing in a restricted area" he said "Peacefully surrender and follow us to our base for further questioning" "If you don't, your life ends here" "That's quite a generous offer" Orie replied at the top of his voice "But I will have to decline" he said "My anger has already been kindled towards you" "So at this moment" "I don't want peace" "The only thing I want from you..." "...is problem" "The only thing I want from you..." "...is conflict" "The only thing I want from you..." "...is blood" "So look here, commander Hugh or commander Jackman or whatever you call yourself" "Don't think you can get me just because you got the jump on Matéo" Meanwhile, the fight between Mia and Genji was still at it's beginning. Mia wasn't as fast as she used to be an her strikes carried less weight but sh
SHIN SEKAI: SPARK OF THE NEW WORLD The coward's blade
In a field covered in smoke, there was a weird kind of silence. It wasn't that sounds could not be heard but that they could be heard clearly. The most prominent of those sounds was the sound of the helicopters that hovered above the field. "H3, what's your status" Hughes spoke into his communication device "I see nothing sir" a voice replied from the other side "I have no eyes on the..." The voice said and suddenly stopped "H3" "H3" "H3, REPORT!!!" Hughes yelled into his device but there was no answer. Then he looked forward through the windshield of the cockpit and saw one of his helicopters turning to face him "Oh sh**" he said he jacked a parachute from the side and jumped out of the aircraft. "Summon the mage squad" he spoke into his device as he watched the helicopter he was on burst into flames. With a loud cry and all her might, Mia swung her sword at Genji with the intent of taking off his head but for some reason, her blade couldn't go thro

"I want a sword that helps keep me alive" "A sword that once held will help me to survive" "A sword I can strike with that helps evade all strikes" "A sword for a coward to help me win all fights" Such were the words that went through Mia's head as she swallowed the glowing blue pill. As she vanished from Genji's line of sight, she reached out her hand for a sword. The moment she grabbed the sword that came to her, pictures of events she never experienced began flooding her mind, alongside the pictures came voices and an odd feeling of rage that she was sure wasn't hers. It didn't take long for her to understand that those were the memories within the sword but that wasn't the strangest part Despite the fact that there was rage within the sword and herself, Mia was sure that the the it was telling her to hang it on her waist and bring out something else.
