《Ascension of the Nephilim 》Chapter 6: The Nephilim
Advertisement
Calaminus was quivering in great fear.
"A Nephilim! A Nephilim! A mighty fragmenting Nephilim!"
"...?" Kyros was confused. He could hear Calaminus but wondered what he was talking about.
"You! Do you know what you are?!"
"What I am?"
"Yes! What you are! No wonder you have Second Source! No, wait! This isn't Second Source! This is... God Source! Oh, my Sovereign! Devil Source?! You have it too?!"
Kyros was getting more and more confused.
"But how is it... this soul... it isn't unstable! How can this be? Nephilims have such souls? And those seals! Have I been decieved? Are Nephilims not what we thought them to be?"
"What are you talking about?" Kyros asked.
"Never mind then. Instead of explaining it, let me just show you! I will be using magic that only the higher realms and lands have. But this one is far stronger since it's the level that gods have! With the power of God's Eyes and show you your real status!"
"My real status? You mean...? I'm not single?"
"...? What?"
"What?"
"What's wrong with you all of a sudden?" Calaminus wondered. Kyros was a serious soul. But suddenly, there was sarcasm.
"I... I don't know. My soul... It's changing."
"Of course! My soul mixed with yours, and it somehow weakened the curses! I'll explain later, but for now, behold your status!"
All of a sudden, various images appeared in front of Kyros. It was similar to the magic [Gauge] used on Kyros by one of the Generals.

Kyros read through his stats as they somehow appeared in his vision. There were green boxes that contained all of them. Although Kyros couldn't understand what these visions were, he could somehow discern that this magic was displaying his stats.
But as he read, he even grew more confused.
The first peculiarity was his name and race. His Legacy Name was not revealed. He concluded that Calaminus [Gauge] magic must have tried to search for his real family, and thus it didn't show the Legacy name he took from his adoptive parents.

The next was the race 'Nephilim' that Calaminus talked about earlier.
But Kyros decided to move and compared his stats to what he remembered.
Kyros read the list of status and was wondering why his stats changed. There were ways to determine most of the stats shown by taking various tests and exams in the army, guild, and other relevant places where all the stats are tested. It had been several months since Kyros's last test.
His previous test revealed that he was already level 99. But here, he was 53 and had reached max level cap! This was not among any information that he received.
From what he could tell, his strength has grown by nearly a hundred. From 1811 it shot up to 1914. His magic had grown from 290, his dexterity from 830, and his Vitality from 1100.
But now, his new stats revealed that it was all sealed and cursed.
Additionally, data that were formerly incalculable were there. Intelligence and Soul Force now had data, and both stated that it was greatly sealed, unlike the rest.
His Second Source, which he learned about when he met the remnant soul of the fallen God Daradiel
had now become God Source, and another appeared, which was Devil Source.
He noticed that his body was under the active Spell [Time Stop], which should be the time magic that Vicarous used and what Calaminus exploited.
But aside from this, were several curses and seals placed on his body.
"What a monster! I can't believe this! What a freak!" Calaminus kept cursing as he was observing Kyros the stats. The previous eccentric, egotistic and easy-going personality vanished as the Ancient God kept running his mouth in pain, bitterness, surprise, and anger.
"Calaminus... Would you tell me what all these means?"
"It means you're a freakin freak, freak! Are you freakin kidding me? Three devil seals?! Three God-tiered seals, a Soul Seal, and a Saint Seal?! And yet with those curses, you still have that disgusting strength of yours?!"
"Um..."
"Do you know that with the seals and curses in my body, which is about two times weaker than yours, I only have a strength of 2122? What kind of joke is this? What the fragment did Ancient Fate do? Did she die three times and reforge destiny three freakin times?! Can anyone tell me what's going on?!" Calaminus continued to rant.
Kyros was so confused that he kept reading the stats. He finally decided to take things one step at a time.

"What is a Nephilim?" Kyros finally asked.
"It's an abomination. That's what it is! It's the ungodly and even undevily spawn of an Ancient God and a First Fallen!"
"Undevily? First Fallen?"
"Undevily! I don't know what word describes something that will make a devil tremble in fear! Ancient Gods is to gods as First Fallen is to devils! I belong to the firstborn of the Light, and they are the firstborn of the Dark! Light and Dark existed when creation began, and we were the beings that manifested it and gave birth to all of creation today!"
"So... you mean...? I'm the child of an Ancient God and a First Fallen?"
"Yes! And that doesn't make sense! A Nephilim cannot exist! When one of the Ancient Gods had fallen in love with a First Fallen, they gave birth to three beings. Each of these beings held great power. The shocking power they had at birth already eclipsed both of the Fallen and the Ancients that the two sides of creation united to slay these beings! The moment they were born, the universe itself quaked! But such union was not possible. Even before we could kill them, the children died! We took that idiot Ancient who can't keep it in his pants, and the Fallen took that idiot Fallen who had such stupid standards that she fell in love with that Ancient to court her! Both of them later died! But ever since then, none of the Ancients or the Fallen would have such relationships! It would break the universe itself!" Calaminus explained.
"Then what exactly happened? Who am I?"
"I don't know! But this answers the mystery of why you couldn't remember anything when you were young and how I am even unable to see through your past with my powers! It all makes sense now!"
"Then am I a threat to this universe?"
"A threat? The Greater Gods is a threat! You are a freakin calamity!"
"Then the deal is off?"
"What the deal is off?! I just told you, my soul is bound to you! I can't turn back now!"
"Then what do we do?" Kyros asked.
"I need to go back in time." Kyros declared as he glanced back at Mechiel.
"Hey, kid... You don't feel... like you're hungry for the blood of mortals, right?"
"What? Of course not!"
"Hmm... You're right. Although three seals were made, it still allowed a very small fraction of your Ancient and Fallen powers to leak. And yet... you're still you... This is interesting. Could it be? What great mystery occurred back then that managed to quell both Light and Dark?" Calaminus thought out loud.
"Calaminus. I don't know who or what I am. But I have to go back in time. That power you promised. I must have it!" Kyros vowed.
Calaminus fell silent.
"I guess... You have faced such pain in your life, yet you did not allow all of those to consume you. Perhaps this is a good thing. You could even be the salvation of this universe..." Calaminus murmured.
"Can you unseal all of these seals and curses? I don't understand any of them!"
"No. Or rather, I can't now! We have to try when you are reborn. Once I turn back time, you will revert to whatever curse you've had back then. So it could get worse. It might be the reason why you don't remember anything. It's possible that you were sealed back then!"
"I was sealed? Then if that's the case, won't you get sealed along with me once you turn back time?"
"Of course not! Those seals are exclusively bound to you. That's why I wondered just what Ancient Fate did. It is as if this moment was prepared so long ago. That's why I won't unseal any of these now."
"But you have the power to do that, right?"
"Of course! I may have become a mortal, but no mortal has more mastery in the Soul than me. Besides, I am counting on something else. If you managed to break away from the seal ten years ago all by yourself, then with me, it's even easier to do so!" Calaminus explained.
"What about the curses? I don't understand what they are."
"Yeah. About those curses... Exactly how smart are you?"
"Smart?"
"Not just smart. How happy are you suppose to be? These curses are the result of the Fate Limiter seal!"
"It's that strong?"
"Strong?! It's the weakest of them all! If I ignore that seal, the other seals that you have are very powerful seals! It's so powerful that even if I am to use all of the powers I have right now, it's still insufficient to remove even one of them! I can't even halve the power of one! Only the Fate Limiter can be partially removed!"
"What does it do? Does it mean that if these Seals are removed, I'll get stronger?"
"Stronger? Considering your current strength, if I removed Fate Limiter, the weakest of those seals, I don't think you'd have met this cruel fate now!" Calaminus wept at how unfair the world was.

Lone: The Wanderer [Dropped Version (includes original draft of the rewrite's first volume)]
Nine-to-five. The daily grind. Life. Painful years of school. Working as a slave for some undeserving corporate big-wig. The monotonous life of unemployment. We all experience this in one way or another, and we can all conclude one thing: it's dull. Such a fact rings true even for the fabled Lone Immortus, a powerful nine-tailed Golden Foxkin. However, what would you do if your monotony was suddenly ground to a halt and you were thrown out of your comfort zone along with a young girl forgotten by time? Perhaps you might have done things differently, been more organised, immediately died, gained control of the world in a matter of days, but this is Lone's tale, not yours. Watching two insecure people struggle to survive and find their place in an unfamiliar land just might be enjoyable to witness. Who knows? One thing's for certain: it won't be an easy path for them to tread, and what could possibly be more entertaining than watching people endure hardships and grow? I know of at least eight gods that would answer with, 'Absolutely nothing.' I wonder, after seeing this journey from start to finish, how would you answer? [Goal of 2 chapters per week, the only exceptions being announced breaks or emergencies] A/N: This story is in the middle of a rewrite, so please forgive any noticeable plot holes and wonky chapter numbers. I am working on it every day, so understanding would be greatly appreciated. The new cover art is a courtesy of the very kind and talented ssddx. This novel is a participant in The Writer's Pledge
