《THE OTHER LIFE OF ACP》THE OTHER LIFE OF ACP - Chapter 14 : Goodbye... Elizabeth

I screamed at them. by the way, the royal guards left. (author, you forgot.)
"Hey stop!" [Henry]
As soon as i said that both of them stopped and looked at me angrily.
"You do not order me around, you fat man!" [Catherine]
"Don't stop me Henry!" [Elizabeth]
"Firstly, Elizabeth, it's really petty of you to fight just because you were called a weakling." [Henry]
"And you, Catherine, you do not tell people they are a weakling just because they are of lower rank." [Henry]
"You can't tell me what to do!" [Catherine]
Catherine charged at me and pointed her sword at me. i didn't flinch. but i was f*cking scared to death in the inside.
"Fight me." [Catherine]
"Alright." [Henry]
"You coward! fight me or- what?" [Catherine]
"I'll fight you." [Henry]
"Oh... okay then." [Catherine]
We first gained some distance, then we would start the battle.
"Where is your weapon?" [Catherine]
"Don't need it." [Henry]
"you! you shall not receive any mercy!" [Catherine]
She stared at me at about 10 seconds, angrily. then she charges at me. she swings her sword all around, me dodging all round, then she finally lost her breath.
"Coward! Fight me!" [Catherine]
She rushes in, swinging again, and again. and on the last swing, i caught the sword.
"Wha?" [Catherine]
"I win." [Henry]
"Not yet!" [Catherine]
She then activated her skill [Adrenaline]. it boosted her status by 100%. and completely replenished her SP.
"Oh sh*t." [Henry]
She charges at me, and kept going in circles. then in some point, she would strike at me, i dodged it of course.
It was getting a bit annoying, so i just ran in front of her. she completely stopped, then she thrusted her sword. i caught the end of the sword, then forcibly removed the sword out of her hand. then i did the same thing to Elizabeth when we first met but with less power. lose the footing, grab the shoulder, then toss her over. she was completely surprised.
"How did you-" [Catherine]
"Never judge a book by it's cover." [Henry]
"We'll call it a tie." [Catherine]
"I would have still beaten you in strength." [Catherine]
"Actually you won't." [Elizabeth]
"And why is that, Elizabeth?" [Catherine]
"I've seen him punch, trust me, you don't want to be the person that's about to get hit by this man." [Elizabeth]

"I'll believe it when i see it." [Catherine]
"Henry, please?" [Elizabeth]
"No." [Henry]
"Please?" [Elizabeth]
"No." [Henry]
"Pretty please?" [Elizabeth]
"Fine." [Henry]
I directed them to a giant boulder. and showed them that it is a real boulder.
"It's real alright." [Catherine]
"Yep." [Elizabeth]
I then proceeded to lightly punch the boulder, the boulder exploded and bits and pieces of them are flying everywhere.
"What the f*ck?" [Catherine]
"I know right?" [Elizabeth]
"I- i concede." [Catherine]
"Okay. thanks for the battle i guess." [Henry]
"Ca- can we stat over?" [Catherine]
"Sure. why the f*ck not?" [Henry]
"Really!? you made up that fast?" [Elizabeth]
"Catherine. could you cover your ears? as a request from a friend?" [Henry]
"Fine." [Catherine]
"She's a beautiful girl. what do you think i would do? kill her?" [Henry]
"No... well good luck i guess." [Catherine]
"What, Where are you going?" [Henry]
"Somewhere, i don't know. i guess around the world. that has been my ream when i was a child." [Elizabeth]
"So, you're leaving?" [Henry]
"Yes." [Elizabeth]
"Sh*t, okay, bye i guess." [Henry]
"Bye. see you... when we meet again." [Elizabeth]
Then she flew away.
I was sad. it was depressing to see my other world comrade leaving. i was crying in the inside. and tear drops falling flowing on the outside.
"Catherine." [Henry]
"..." [Catherine]
"Catherine?" [Henry]
"..." [Catherine]
"Cather-, oh right, sh*t." [Henry]
i took her arms off her ears.
"Catherine." [Henry]
"oh, sorry, i was thinking." [Catherine]
"Where do you live?" [Henry]
"At the capital, why?" [Catherine]
"Which way is the capital?" [Henry]
"At east, again why?" [Catherine]
"Then let us go there." [Henry]
"okay? tell me. WHY?" [Catherine]
"Because of this." [Henry]
i pointed at... fenrig. well the rubbles of fenrig.
"oh." [Catherine]
"Then let's go." [Henry]
Fenrig was in complete ruins. it was like a tornado hit this town. just rubble everywhere. so we just went straight to the capital. then i remembered something.
"Oh!" [Henry]
"What is it?" [Catherine]
"I have to do "that"." [Henry]
"That?" [Catherine]
So i found some space in the grass. then i prepared myself. Catherine was all confused on what i was doing.

"Okay, let's do this." [Henry]
"What is "this"?" [Catherine]
giveHenryBlack Resurrection MAX |
‘Skill acquired: [Resurrection]’
‘[Resurrection] has leveled up from LVL :1 to LVL :MAX’
"Okay. go." [Henry]
I activated [Resurrection] and a blank bar was in front of me. and on top of it is some text saying "Enter name".
I entered the name Arch devil, and then a list popped in front of me. the content was basically all of the arch devils that have died. and it was organized by recently killed, convinient. i select the one that matches the stats.
A circle formed on the ground, it was inscribed in some language, but of course i could understand since i have [All Language]. it literrally said "Resurrection time!" funny. then a ray of light came from above. it covered the whole circle and it was like that for 30 seconds. then the ray of light shatters like glass.
Inside was the Arch Devil, lying on the grass. Catherine was surprised by this and took out her sword. i stopped her, and i approached the arch devil.
"Wake up." [Henry]
"Huh? what?" [Arch Devil]
"I told you would be resurrected." [Henry]
"My god. are you god?" [Arch Devil]
"No." [Henry]
"Where is my father?" [Arch Devil]
"He'll be here soon. i have to do this again." [Henry]
"Okay, thank you, human." [Arch Devil]
"It's only fair." [Henry]
Catherine was dumbfounded. the demon she killed is now alive. she had the look of confusion and doubt. i did the resurrection again. but then i picked the matching stats. then the circle appeared, then the light, then the shattering. there was an Arch Devil standing now. then he looked around, and saw his son.
"Son!" [Arch Devil 2]
"Father!" [Arch Devil 1]
"They hugged each other, it would've been sweet, if only they weren't so ugly. then when the father saw me, he turned pale and ran the the other direction.
"Father stop!" [Arch Devil 1]
"Kill that man! he is the one who killed me!" [Arch Devil 2]
"And he's the one who revived you." [Arch Devil 1]
"What?" [Arch Devil 2]
The Son explained the whole thing, Fenrig, me talking in demon, and the reason of revival.
"Still, he killed me." [Arch Devil 2]
"And revived you." [Arch Devil 1]
"Well, is that all you need? then i'll be off." [Henry]
"Wait!" [Arch Devil 1]
"What?" [Henry]
"Can you please be my master?" [Arch Devil 1]
"What do you mean?" [Henry]
"A demon can choose a person to be their master. and i choose you." [Henry]
"Oh, then okay." [Henry]
"I shall give you a name then." [Henry]
"A name!?" [Arch Devil 1]
"Can't really keep calling you Arch Devil right?" [Henry]
"Then, thank you master!" [Arch Devil 1]
"How about... Elgir?" [Henry]
"... I am Elgir." [Elgir]
Then something like a cocoon covered him. we waited for about 10 minutes, then someone cam out of the cocoon.
"Elgir?" [Henry]
"Yes, master." [Elgir]
Elgir Look is now human, but he has horns now. he also has black hair, and red eyes. he was strangely wearing a suit when he came out. i appraised him.

Seems that he has leveled up quite a bit. he's stronger than his father now. level 100, all stats are in the 1000's, except for luck.
"Son?" [Arch Devil 2]
"Yes, father?" [Elgir]
"You finally Evolved!" [Arch Devil 2]
"I did?" [Elgir]
"Look at yourself!" [Elgir]
Elgir's look was of surprise, he looked at his hands, body and feet. he was quite happy.
"How did a devil become a Human?" [Catherine]
"Evolution." [Arch Devil 2]
"It is something we go through when we are given a name. but the strength depends on the person that gave the name." [Arch Devil 2]
"Oh." [Catherine]
"The more you know." [Arch Devil 2]
I was expecting this. i was quite happy. i now have a friend/disciple that is a monster. i wanted to befriend a monster actually, and i did.
While i was secretly celebrating, The father approached me.

In a century, half of the great continent was conquered by the Empire. Centuries after the death of its first Emperor, the Empire became a decaying place, full of misery and strife.

Power is spread across the continent, but is there still hope for a new dawn of the Empire? Will hidden powers make their moves? Everything follows as it is and as it has always been. The wealth, the poverty. The strong, the weak. The war, the peace. The life, the death. The perdition, the salvation. The beginning and the end. There is perfect order in the midst of all the disorder in the world. But what would happen if... ... A drop of chaos fell on this world? - - / - Book 01The Fall Through Chaos A new day has begun, a day like any other. An unusual group, made up of all kinds of characters and personalities, live another day in their own way. From the simplest and most humble, to the most distorted and irrational. An unusual mix, but actually a very common one. Such a group began a new day, a day like any other in their ordinary lives. At least it was supposed to be that way... ... An unknown phenomenon has brought chaos. Amidst the chaos, common and uncommon people fall into a new world, hailing from a world of modern society. A different world from the one they lived in, but still very similar. Who are these people? Who of them can survive amidst all this chaos? What kind of changes can these people bring to the world where magical and supernatural forces exist? What will be the future of each of them in this mysterious story? Come with me to travel and discover all this in... Magic x Magic... - - / - Hey, guys! I want to tell everyone that I managed to recreate a text structure that satisfied me. Finding this new structural formula, I proceeded to rewrite all the released chapters (0000~0048). Rewriting the chapters, I would like to make it clear that; 1 The basis of the story will not change. Only a few small details will be changed, so that those readers who do not want to re-read the chapters will not be harmed in following the story. 2 Those interested in starting over will be rewarded with the introduction of new POVs of some already established plots from the already released chapters. And as I said before, the entire story already developed will not change. Treat this as a way of enriching some plots and backstories for some characters. 3 I decided to bring some plots that would only appear after finishing the first arc. These storylines don't have a development in this arc, but they are storylines that are happening at the same time as the events of the first arc. So there are some more mysteries to reward those who will re-read the novel. Rewrite Update:New Reading Aid Rule: Incomplete.Prologue to Book 01 (Arc 01): Incomplete.Rewritten Chapters: 0000. I want to warn you that for now the chapters are being released gradually, don't give up on me... For more details visit my Patreon page, you can find details about me and the novel 'Magic x Magic' in public posts. A big hug to everyone!Cover art by me, ScanLi.
