"What do you mean? Don't you know who I am? The second prince of this country is my father."
"As I said cool story kid. What do I care who your father is. In my eyes your whole ancestors combined are my juniors."
"B-but you are only a kid how can you claim to be my senior?"
"You will find out."
I grabbed his face with my hand and poured the seeds power into his head.
Various images of his life poured into me.
"Now I understand."
"What are you doing." Julius face showed discomfort.
"You wanted to see an elven female, so you and your friends decided to go to the elven kingdom."
"H-How do you know that?"
"It's quite simple son, I can extract memories from your soul."
"Y-you monster.You are no kid, what is this, body possession?"
"I was profound since birth. ELise knock him out."
A neck chop later the already injured Julius was unconscious.
"Master we struck rich. This guy is a big shot." Eyes sparkled and she couldn't hold still.
"Yes. We are most fortunate indeed my humble disciple. Get the dead guys stuff and pile the corpses."
"Yes, yes."
I took Julius's bag of holding and tried to use it. It didn't work.
"Maybe this is like in those novels where one imprints a mark with ones blood. So as long as he lives I can't access it."
Poof
"What did you say master?"
Two corpses where neatly placed in front of me.
"Unfortunately we can't use his bag of holding.You have to carry these corpses. Let's go to our hide out."
The hide out was a place deep in the Forrest where we hid the beast cores we obtained after two years of hunting.
"What about the prince boy?"
"Of course you need to carry all of them. I don't care how you do it, you can't expect that your master will do it for you."
"But I'am the older one."
"I told you already that I am an ancient being that has lived since primordial times."
"Now you are boasting. Ancient yes, I would understand but primordial?"
"Well you just need to see me as an expert and don't forget who the master is."
"Yes, yes."

"You- Aiya"

Poof
"Hey." Julius revovered from his neck chop.
"Oh you are awake? Master does he need seconds?"
"No, he woke up just in the right time."
"Where are we?" Julius asked while he shook his head
"Kid,this old man wants to make you an offer."
"What offer?"
"You will become an outer sect disciple."
"What do you mean sect?"
"Oh no here he goes again."
"What does he mean little girl."
"For you its still senior sister." Elise snorted a face of disgust
"But I'm 16 years old aren't I your senior." He acted like he was wronged.
"Humph this is Elise the first student I took in. You will call her martial aunt."
"Hey who are you calling aunt." Elise puffed her cheeks.
"Prince boy,you will call me senior sister."
"Why should I join so called sect, you killed my friends." Julius gnashed his teeth.
"Ah you men Bould and Bob. Don't worry they are not actually dead. I can bring them back to life anytime."
"W-What? Do you mean necromancy? Or perhaps a resurrection spell?...Wait who am I kidding. You are only a monster kid at best, not some god."
"Boy" I sighed. I wanted him to know the difference between heaven and earth. It was important for him to understand who was boss. Him meeting me was life changing fortune. Look how Elise turned out under my guidance.
What excited me the most was this brat had a huge background. This would help me immensely taking over this kingdom.
"Do you know the expression 'to have eyes yet fail to realize mt.Tai'? Let this old man teach you."
"Elise, dig out the cores."
"Yes master."
Elise took out a huge bag from the hole she dug up. Going back in another was took out, then another. It took a while for to dig out all the bags.
"What are those."
"Oh this? These are just some beast cores."
"All of this? How many are there?"
"I don't know I have lost count long ago."
"Give me a G rank core."
"Yes, yes." Elise leisurely took out a beast core.
She handed it to me and said.
"Behold, my master will demonstrate his heaven defying power. Feel blessed for he is a dragon amongst men. His will surpasses the heavens.

"Ahem, well done my disciple." I stroked my non existent beard.
"Heh, surpasses the heavens. That I want to see."
I converted the beast core in to soul seeing glasses.
"H-How- How did you do it. It was a beast core before. This.."
Disbelief showed on this youth's face. It was like he saw the impossible.
"Put this on."
"What are these glasses. It better be nothing foul."
"Humph, If master wanted you dead you'd be a goner long ago."
"Thanks, now let me do the talking."
"Fine." Elise puffed her cheeks and snorted at the same time.
"Here put these on." I handed the soul seeing glasses to Julius.
"Fine. Whatever. I hope your words holds any truth. I am Julius van Velen, son of the second prince. My grandfather is the current king. If you can bring back my dead friends, I will call you master."
"Che, look at this bitch talking big words. He wants to become a disciple of my honorable master, yet he can't even act humble. Second prince your sister, I your Grandmother can't tolerate arrogant trash that don't know the depth of the sea and the height of the mountains."
Julius's mouth was agape.
"Even as member of the royal family I have not seen such arrogance in my entire life. You say your master can bring the people back from the dead? Now that is what I call, excuse my manner...bullshit."
"Hahahaha, you know prince boy. I was also killed and brought back to life. Since I know the outcome, I have the right to be arrogant. However boy you should forget becoming a disciple of my master you are not worthy."
"You brat, you-"
"Enough."
They both shut their mouths.
"ELise is right. I can't teach you directly Julius. You will become Elise's diciple. Any way the time is running, I don't want my father to wake up and look for me. Put the glasses on son and let me show you that I Thorus am a man of my words."
Julius put on the glasses and stood with his arms crossed.
"Then show me.If you can bring back my friends back to life, I am willing to become this little girls student."
"Alright, I see your resolve. Behold."
"Pah"
I spat out the two souls I stored in my body. The seeds power were coating the two souls preventing them to escape.
The moment the two souls appeared Julius's eyes widen in shock.
"B-Bould...B-Bob."
"You see prince boy? Now stop whining."
"Yes son, be obedient and this old man won't make it difficult for you."
I sucked the two souls back into my body.
"Oh my goddess, these were their soul. You really told me the truth." His mouth was wide agape covered by his shivering hands.
"Son, from now on forget your old life.Elise give me some cores."
"Which rank. How many?"
I cleared my throat and said.
"I don't want to be stingy, give me 40 G rank cores, 20 F rank cores and 10 E rank cores."
"Here they are." A pile of cores were in front of me.
I stretched out my hand and converted the cores into two bodies. They resembled the bald and burly man perfectly. I also added some minor adjustments to their bodies. Since they will listen to this Julius guy, they were pawns that couldn't be wasted.
"Oh my-"
"Hahaha, look son. I will bring them back to life. Call me supreme ancestor."
I spat out the two souls. Julius was able to see the whole process because he had still his glasses on.
Before I proceeded with reviving his friends I needed to wait. There it was, Julius mouth fell agape.
"Forbidden Technique, heaven defying revival. Fuse." I bit my lip and spat some blood on the bodies that were in state of fusion.
The blood spitting was not a necessary part in the fusion of soul and body but I just added it for some dramatic effect.
I also didn't add a seed like in Else's case. If every random trash were to get part of my powers it would be too sad to bear.
The fusion of the soul and body was much more smooth then it was with Else's case. My seeds power must have gotten stronger.
"Uh, my head."
"Who-"
"Bould? Bob?"
"Julius, huh, I'm alive?"
"Yes, son your ancestor brought you back to the living. Welcome" I smiled wryly.

Mistakes Lead To Success
Mistakes were made and it led to the death of Natalie Freemen. Her soul was captured and cared for by an young god but such protection come with a cost. Instead of taking the original offer she decided to make a deal. She would rome the multiverse and steal the essence that thrives them. In return she could become a demigod. Updates at random Romance is not the focus but a major plot point. I will take suggestions and corrective criticism. *Important Note* This makes for sense as you read along. This story is created by the viewer but there is a twist. Some chapters are static, meaning that it is to propel the plot. Others have polls that will affect other chapters but without a question. This means you don't know what it effects or in which chapter. I wanted to added this effect to create a suspense, something I didn't feel as much in other reader interactive stories. Your vote could create fortune or misfortune for the main character. I know what it will effect because have a chart that tells me the possible routes. You just have to wait and see what your choice have done. I'll even write which poll effects the chapter in the authors note. Characters could die in the story and they won't be leads anymore. In comments you can ask for a detail chart for each poll but it will only be for one answer per poll. I will chose the most requested answer. I do not own the photo.
