Divine Emperor Of Death Chapter 74

"Now my points have increased to 76," said Ellia as she looked at her token and had a sudden doubt.
"But the name slot is... empty?"
"Oh, that voice also said that we can use our energy to input our names or alias," Davis said as he looked at her in a meaningful way.
"...What?"
"Hehe, I'm going to use an alias!" Flicking his sleeves, Davis gave off an impeccable air which seemed to imply that he had a grand alias in store for himself.
Ellia looked at him weirdly as she knew whenever he posed like this, there wouldn't be one good thing that would happen. She then ignored him and replied as she used her energy to input her name into the token, "Oh, I'll just use my name."
[Fifth Island
Name: Ellia
Position: 8,636,767
Points: 76]
She looked at the token in satisfaction and felt a little good as though she managed to carve and leave her name in a monument.
"So, what alias did you pick?" Even though Ellia was not even the least bit looking forward to it, she was still a little curious.
"Heh, not telling!" Davis laughed.
...
Days passed as Davis and Ellia actively hunted for tokens.
They killed whoever wanted to kill them and robbed whoever only wanted to get their tokens.
They did as they pleased and spared no one even under any circumstance. As long as they felt some killing intent from their enemies, they won't hold back either.
Davis made Ellia do all the fighting and as a result, her battle experience increased, furthermore she never got to be in a disadvantage during a battle, as she dual cultivated both Body Tempering and Essence Gathering Systems.
Ellia faced more than a 100 battles and she collected more than 3000 points. Meanwhile, Davis ran off to hunt whenever she had taken a break from her exhaustion from battling.

He had also managed to gather 2000 points as he made his way into the Top 10,000.
People who had lost their tokens had no way to participate unless they rob a token from a participant and start from the beginning.
So it doesn't matter how many points one collect, it was important to protect their own token as well. Once a person lost it, all the points that the person had collected will disappear, but it won't add to the one who absorbed the token.
The one who absorbed will just get the point of the token that they have absorbed.
It was the fifth day of the preliminaries.
A black-robed silhouette, along with 5 young people ran across the forest.
They looked pretty happy as they checked their tokens....
"Hey, look at this, my ranking is in the Top 1000's" The youth who said that had a lush green hair tied up behind his neck. He looked suave and had a dashing presence around him.
"Hmm, not bad..." The voice sounded out with a tone that can melt one's state of mind.
"Haha, Young Mistress, it still doesn't compare to your ranking of getting into the Top 100."
"Stop that, all the tokens that I absorbed were from the hard work of us all. Honestly, all of this should have gone to you, Kent."
The six of them were none other than the Cauldon Family youths who were sent to participate in the Grand Sea Continent Meet. There were two women and four young men in this group.
"It doesn't matter if my ranking is in the top 10 or top 100 in this preliminaries. This ranking will be of help to you when you marry into the Loret Family so that others won't look down on you, Evelynn." Kent Cauldon smiled and said.

"Thank you, thank you all..." Evelynn telt touched and replied in a heartfelt tone.
She was wearing black robes to cover her identity from someone.
Kent was a close cousin of Evelynn's. He was next in line to inherit the Family Head position since Evelynn was born as a girl.
The other candidates don't quite measure up to him in cultivation, so they were no threat to him at all.
The only threat to him was Evelynn. If someone had married her and got into the family, then he would lose his Family Head position.
But to his luck, Evelynn got engaged to the prince and she will marry him into the Loret Family which clears the line for him to become the next head of the Cauldon Family.
This made him feel content, so he had no calms in helping Evelynn, who was his cousin, achieve a greater glory in the Grand Sea Continent Meet.
The Cauldon Family team was quite powerful that each of them could hold their own against a motley team of youths who were only out for the Top 100,000 positions.
Evelynn who had a pretty low cultivation rode on their coattails as she didn't deem it necessary to use her own powers in this preliminaries.
They chatted as they randomly went in a direction to encounter a team to battle and casually collect some tokens while they were at it.
Suddenly Evelynn froze as her team encountered two kids who were lone without any reinforcement.
Her team also froze because they have seen this two kids before.
"Well, isn't this a coincidence? my dear Evelynn." An astonished voice drifted, breaking the silent atmosphere in this place.
Davis was surprised to see her in this Island. There were other eleven Islands which made his chances of meeting her were very low as well.
Evelynn was dumbfounded to hear that he had found out her identity with just a glance. She felt that all that concealing her identity and strength had gone to waste.
She removed her hood and replied calmly, "My Evelynn? I don't remember becoming yours?"
"Oh, you will, hehe. That matter? Are you up for it now?" Davis asked with a playful tone.
"You sure you want to take me on?" She said as she released a greyish aura from her body.
"This... She has reached the Iron Stage!?" Kent and the others who saw Evelynn was visibly astonished at her cultivation.

Saga of Fallen Kings, Book I: The Revenant Prince
The Philosopher King once conquered the known world, his power seemingly unlimited and his armies inexhaustible. Since that time his might has slowly unravelled, and his once steadfast empire has begun to crack, splinter and devour itself. In the isolated Southern Realms, where even magic has abandoned them, none of that matters. For years it has been filled with warring kingdoms, where as many kings die to the blade as to old age, and constant battles tear apart the land. When one such kingdom invades its old enemy, the King and his heir, Prince Caden, are killed. Unable to accept the loss of his family Prince Arian is broken, and when the Philosopher King stretches out his hand in aid, Arian takes it without a second thought. When Caden wakes from death, he's different. His eyes and soul have changed, and he finds a world filled with friends who no longer trust he's even human. Suddenly thrust onto the throne and indebted to the Philosopher King, Caden has no choice but to keep going - he must finish what his father started, and try to survive the machinations of the figure who now owns his fealty. Meanwhile something beyond death stirs for him, desiring nothing more than to drag him back into its embrace. Author's Note: This story used to be known as "A King of his Own", but after some consideration I have decided to rebrand it. The first reason is that I was growing increasingly dissatisfied with the title. The second is that I have come increasingly to view this story as a 'saga' containing multiple 'books' rather than one long, continuous publication, and as I did so I realized that as I was quickly getting to a point in the story where I wanted the first 'book' to end. This doesn't mean I'm going back on the things I said below - they're just going to continue in the next book of the Saga of Fallen Kings. :) Also, be aware that I do plan to edit this at some point. Though I take care to squash out any obvious errors when I proof-read, and do simple edits in that process, at some point I'm almost certainly going to do large edits that might significantly change parts of the story. Old author's notes: This started as a completely random writing session. There was no purpose or direction, but as I kept typing an entire world began to form in my mind that I knew I had to write about. My plan is to turn this story into a veritable medieval fantasy epic that spans an entire world, follows multiple character and storylines, and takes place over many years. The story has quite a grounded, almost 'realistic' start, but many more fantastical elements will be introduced, expanded upon and become central to the narrative. I have ideas for this story that make me genuinely excited and I hope you enjoy my work as much as I enjoy writing it, and join me on what will hopefully become a truly massive fantasy epic. If you do enjoy this story please consider following, rating and leaving a review. I'm also happy to answer any questions or comments you have.

He and his newfound apprentice/sidekick the definitely not a creation goddess Faun have a little problem. The Big Guy's universe is blowing up. Faun might have had something to do with that. (She feels awful about it BTW) They must rush about the unraveling universe saving (or judging) worlds as the end of all things is bearing down upon them at the speed of light, so they have a bit of time but really can't mess about. Along the way they will encounter Lovecraftian horrors, divine ex-girlfriends, surly AI's and a host of other hassles. Enjoy such delights as the complete destruction of the universe, a children's "Christmas pageant" except where "the greatest story ever told" involves an eldritch horror from another universe, and an innocent misunderstanding concerning the exact definition of a "red dwarf". Existential dread! Lovecraftian comedy! It's as much madness as can be shoved into a single work and still remotely make sense! If you enjoy completely off the hook lunacy, this one is for you!
