《Path to Godhood: The Silver King (RWBY)》1. - RWBYS: Summer Rose
Advertisement
A plane abandoned by the Gods, a broken moon, a remnant of the great age, an unforgiving world where the creatures of Grimm set sights on the mankind and its creations. Within a forest a boy moved with incredible speed within the trees, behind him a small size beast with black fur and a skull head with red marks followed him, similar looking to a wolf.
As the boy moved, his speed started to slow down, he looked to be breathing heavily. Noticing this, the black wolf like creature roared and sped up trying to catch him. What he didn’t realize was that the boy had a smile plastered on his face as he saw the creature reaction.
Finally catching up, the creature jumped towards him, trying to pin him down. At that moment the boy moved to the side, evading the creature. As the monster touched the ground, the earth shook, creating a hole on the ground, trapping the creature in the earth.
Quickly the boy took from his pocket a shining silver crystal, filled with visible silver marks. Immediately he threw the crystal inside the hole, the moment the creature and the crystal came in contact, a brightly silver light appeared from the hole, together with a wail.
After that everything returned to silence. Moving closer to the hole, the boy looked inside and noticed that only a small quantity of ash remained. Suddenly the boy smiled brightly as a voice was heard on his ears.
QUEST UPDATE:
KILL 15 YOUNG BEOWOLVES (15/15)
REWARD: 300 POINTS
“Good! Now I have enough” he laughed as he checked the total of 2200 points he had collected. Looking around he started running away from the place, he knew that the creature wail had probably alerted many others.
The boy was no one but Silva, for him it turned out that he was not going crazy. As the instant he woke up, he found himself in a new place surrounded by trees. At that moment he realized, it was not a dream. His body had returned to when he was a kid, together with a part of his mentality.
His new appearance was similar to when he was young, only a bit cuter, he had tanned skin, and his hair and eyes turned the color of his aura, silver. Just like the system told him, he had obtained much knowledge about aura, and he couldn’t help but being impressed by its true utility. But meaning you know about it, doesn’t mean you how to use it, thankfully the system had granted him the power to utilize it.
In any case, the system had not abandoned him. After all, right at the moment of his awakening, it had given him quests, in order to survive the forest where he was located. The quest rewarded him with points, and Silva could use these points to buy small things, markings and knowledge from the system’s store.
He could not obtain things that went against the world laws, so many overpowered things didn’t appear on the system’s store. Silva didn’t care, as some markings could replicate many cool abilities.
And he still had a vast knowledge of different series so he was not worried, the power of the Silver King appeared as a Sword Tattoo on the top of his chest, right by his heart. When the system told him the power of the Silver King was greatly limited, it meant that of the three different Silver King abilities, he had only obtained one.
It was the power of inviolability, as his aura carried this trait. It not only helped him to heal his injuries at a great speed, but it could be said to be the weakness of the creatures of darkness, the Grimm. The only problem is that everything was related to the use of aura.

For Silva, today marked the third month he had spent on this new world. Finally Silva reached his destination, looking in front of him, a cave blocked by a giant boulder. Moving towards the side, he touched a small mark hiding by the bushes and he swiftly disappeared.
Inside the cave, Silva appeared as he said “It was such a great idea to obtain, the Flying Thunder God Mark” right after, he walked further inside. The cost of the technique was not cheap, it was 2000 points and it was only the Second Hokage version, not the one refined by the Fourth Hokage.
Finally he reached a part of the cave that was modified to look like a small home, once there he took a small rest by laying inside a weirdly shaped, but comfortable looking bed, doing that, his features were illuminated by the sunlight that came down from the top of the cave. All the running had left him a bit exhausted, because of the amount of aura he had utilized, he had to rest in order to recover it.
Finally after recovering his breath, he got up towards weirdly shaped glass equipment that was on top a rocky table. “Finally it’s time” opening the system he used 2000 points to buy the thing he desired. Right after, the information flowed into his mind.
Using his aura on the two fingers of right hand, four flying marks were drawn on the air, which entered the body of the object and tattooed it in four different directions. Taking a heavy breath, Silva withdrew his power and stared at the object, it looked like a round fish tank. From it, he could feel how pure energy started to gather into it from the surroundings.
The more he looked the more satisfied he was with it “Great! With this I won’t have to buy dust from the system”
The mark he bought from the system, was a dust refinement mark technique, or it would be better to call it a natural energy gathering mark, it worked in a way that attracted natural energy to a place, but when used in the fourth cardinal directions, it would concentrate all the energy into a single spot, creating dust crystals. After all, dust is basically made from natural energies.
The mark was something he could create using the power of his Semblance, the Markings of Damocles. During the time he spent in the world of Remnant he had understood many secrets about aura, explaining to him how Cinder could steal Amber Maiden Powers. The power of his semblance simply let him create this markings, without having to inscribe them with a tool.
One of the advantages of the system, is that it could help him create different marks without waste time researching them, it would create any kind of ability he desired, the only problem was the amount of points they required. Leaving the container behind, he moved towards his bed and took a book from below, it was called RWBY: Basic Weapon Design another one of the system advantages.
Finally after reading for how long, he felt asleep in the bed. It was midnight by the time he woke up, taking a look inside the glass container, he was happy to see a transparent dust crystal.
“Seems like I must have been asleep for quite the time” He couldn’t help it, after all his body was of a child. Getting up, he moved towards the side of the room, where he had stored dried meat and took a few things out. Then moved towards the table, after taking a few bites at the dried meat, he took the crystal out and using his aura he dyed it, turning it silver.

Giving a small laugh, he was about to finish eating when a small voice sounded in his ear, completely stunning him.
MAIN STORY QUEST:
SAVE SUMMER ROSE: STATUS (000/100)
REWARDS: 6000 POINTS, UNLOCK SYSTEM’S SECOND LEVEL, RANDOM REWARD
DESCRIPTION: SAVE ONE OF THE STORY MOST MYSTERIOUS CHARACTERS
SUMMER ROSE HAS BEEN AMBUSHED AND HAS BEEN RUNNING AWAY, SHE IS CURRENTLY NOT FAR AWAY FROM YOUR LOCATION, AND WITHOUT YOUR HELP THE PROBABILITY OF HER DEATH IS 100%.
PLEASE MOVE QUICKLY, IF MISSION IS FAILED, SYSTEM’S INTERFACE WOULD BE TAKEN FROM HOST.
“What the hell? Isn’t this forcing one’s to act?” looking at the description, he couldn’t help to feel shocked. This was forcing him to change the course of history, he knew who Summer Rose was. She was the mother of one the protagonists, and she played the most mysterious role in the series.
Taking a breath his eyes turned serious, taking a paper from his pocket, he used his aura to mark it with the Flying Thunder God Mark. Silva had to do this, as he couldn’t directly teleport, he could only teleport when he was in contact with the mark, and his body could still not bear the strain of marking itself.
So he put the paper mark inside his worn out clothing, taking a short sword tattooed with silver marks, he quickly equipped himself. Making his way out of the cave and looking at the broken moon on the outside, he asked the system “System can you give me directions?”
“Host target is currently located five hundred meters to his east and moving” Hearing the system. Silva moved as quickly as possible. Taking another marked paper from his pocket, he used aura to activate it, blending into the surrounding immediately.
_____________________________________________________________________________________
A bloodied young woman laid upon a tree, her cloak had long turned crimson from her blood, and her eyes looked blurry as she gazed at the being in front of her. Many thoughts came to her mind in what seemed to be her last moments, within her hands were what looked to broken chains. While the only things in her mind were thoughts filled with memories of her family.
The being in front of her was a pitch black human like Grimm with a white bone mask and horns, on his hand, he held a bone spear, the monster showed no emotions as he moved closer to towards the woman.
Suddenly the monster stopped moving, turning around he swung his bone spear to hit a flying silver sword, which broke upon contact with the weapon, just like a glass, flashing a blinding silver light to appear, causing intense pain for the creature as the light exploded close to him.
Making the Grimm take a step back, while it used his hands to hold his face, three silver crystal were thrown towards it, exploding with a smaller yet more potent scale, completely maddening the creature as pain overcame his body. Right at the same time the explosion occurred, a small figure ran with immense speed towards the woman laying by the tree. The jet black creature that screamed in a soundless manner, moved his bone spear randomly, nearly hitting the small figure.
Looking at this, the small figure hurriedly ducked and evaded the attack, jumping towards the woman before touching her hand and vanishing completely. While the creature continued breaking havoc around the place, as if fighting the pain coursing through its body.
Finally after some time the Grimm recovered from the pain and looked around to find its target, only to see it had vanished without a trace. After some time of looking, the creature turned back and vanished in the night.
_____________________________________________________________________________________
Inside the cave, a rough and panicked breathing was heard, Silva had a scared expression as he looked at the rock covering the cave. In the past he thought that it would be enough to protect him from the creatures outside, but at this moment Silva couldn’t continue thinking that.
“What was that thing? I never saw such a scary Grimm on the series’”
“With something like that following her, it was no joke that she died, it looked like a cold blooded murdering machine, thankfully the Mark of Concealment worked correctly”
During the three months he had been living inside the forest, he had been using his points wisely in order to be able to preserve his life, even the way he hunted utilized carefully planned strategy. Even though with his strength he could battle an adult Beowolf he didn’t have the equipment necessary.
Taking another deep breath, he used his strength to carry the body of Summer Rose towards his bed, the moment that the distraction started Summer had lost consciousness and was in a delicate situation.
After Silva finished moving her, he used the rest of his system points in order to buy a healing serum, even though with world restriction it wouldn’t have magical capabilities. It would help stabilizing her injuries, as he used the power of his aura to heal her broken body.
Making up his mind, he took out the two last two silver dust crystals he had left, and started absorbing their energy slowly to recover his own aura, after all they were created to hold his silver aura power, so he could absorb it back, while he did, he started sending Aura to her body in order to heal her.
There would be no rewards if she died, after all the quest asked him to save her life, he couldn’t let her fall. But even as healed her, he was afraid, because he was gambling. Gambling that the Grimm wouldn’t come looking for them, he had seen many series, so he could understand what kind of monster it was. A killing machine that only knew how to follow orders.
So he was gambling that after seeing her disappear, it would do the same too. If by any chance he made a mistake, then his life would reach the same end too. But he knew the system wouldn’t give him a mission that couldn’t be completed, after all, in front of that thing even a powerful Huntress like Summer Rose almost ended dead, so he would be nothing more like an ant in front of it.
The only thing he could do was concentrate, and continue trying to save her life using all his power. His aura was weak compared to her, but its trait was not.

Badass
At the end of everything, Taylor Hebert realized something. She didn't want to be a superhero. No, she wanted to be a badass. And then her prayers were answered. Imbued with the power of mimetic badassery and the ability to channel a different real-life badass every week, she set out in search for all the best things in life - well, according to Conan, at least. Modeling herself after Conan have been a mistake. Join her on her high-octane, pulp-fiction journey for vengeance, adventure, victory and mayhem. This isn't just uncensored. It's anti-censored! =========================== (Worm/Fate/Badass of the Week) Warning: crack-taken-seriously, over-the-top pulp-fiction style violence, overpowered protagonist, banned on two other sites. Hell, even the light-hearted omake jokes in this were considered too subversive to persist. ============================ AN: There’s this really, really excellent website called Badass of the Week. I’ve wasted many an hour browsing through, marveling at all the crazy shit some humans are capable of. Check it out, then come back and read this in a few days when the awesome starts to wear off. It’s worth it (all 576 entries). Back? Good! Anyways, I was looking through it recently while thinking about who I wanted to make expy’s of for my The Flying Dutchman quest ship captains (which now languishes in indefinite hiatus), and I had this idea. What if Taylor, wanting to be a badass, triggered with the power to be a different Badass every week? With a bit of Fate-style ability to draw on the tools associated with the legend (but to a just marginally less ridiculous degree), and a drive and aura to be and do badass? And thus, Badass was born in it’s somewhat cracky glory. Enjoy.
