《Death With Benefits》One Will………..
Advertisement
I was on my balcony admiring the city lights as I reminisced about the time with Stella. I sighed and stopped thinking about it.
'STATUS'
Name: Samsara Yu
Age: 17 years old
Race: ??
Unique ability: Death with benefits
Life span: 20000 years
Willpower: manifestation
'Though I didn't comment on it before this life span is getting out of hand' I thought with a wry smile. I then started wondering how to use my willpower. I sat in meditation searching deep inside my mind. As l entered a perfect state of calm I started feeling a warmth radiating in my mind space. Its glow was soft spreading in the entirety of the space illuminating it. My consciousness neared it and fused with it. Instantly I understood the nature of this glow it was a representation of my WILL. As my consciousness fused with it I felt that I could control it now, I couldn't wait to try.
I exited that mystical mind space and returned to reality. I was still sitting on my balcony, the wind was softly blowing, the moon and stars were illuminating the midnight sky. As I opened my eyes a new glow could now be found in them. I started searching for a target to practice this new ability. My eyes stopped on the chair and table in the corner. I decided to go with them.
Focusing my mind I willed for their destruction. At first, I didn't feel anything and was wondering if I couldn't master it then I felt something. I felt a weird type of power flowing out of me directed at the chair and table, when it reached it, I expected to see the table explode or break but to my astonishment and utter shock the table and the chair just disintegrated.
All this takes a lot of time to describe but from the moment I WILLED it to the disintegration of the furniture, only 0.5s passed.
'This is horrifying, what sort of power can be this monstrous?. Mine apparently and looking at the past trend this power should become more and more frightening with each improvement by death' i thought in awe of myself.

I tried to see what other things I could do with it, I willed to be able to see Chloe as I didn't saw her for a long time now just to see what would happen. Instantly the same phenomenon appeared again, a brilliant light flashed in my eyes, and my gaze passed through space and reached Chloe.
She was in a bathrobe seated in a luxurious room, holding a glass of wine. Her pale skin looked flushed and her dark long hair was dripping water. As if she felt something she turned and looked in my direction, her eyes had already turned crimson and I could see her muscle tensing preparing for an attack. But as she continued to look, a puzzled expression appeared in her eyes, she said tentatively:
''Samsara?''
'I couldn't answer or could I? I exerted my power, willed to transmit my thoughts to her'
« Hey, Chloe how is it going? » I saw her flinch and look around the room.
''Where are you? I can't see you, but weirdly I know it's you because of my signature on your essence.''
Ah so this explained how she noticed me spying on her, I thought it was due to her level but it seemed I was wrong.
« I am testing out my new ability. How did it go with your mission Blood dragon? » I asked mischievously
Her face slackened and her red eyes returned to normal then she sighed
''I can see your date with Stella went well, she must have told you about this unfortunate nickname,'' she said
As she mention Stella I looked at her to see if there was a trace of ill-feeling, even though Stella told me that she endorsed it, I needed to make sure.
'' Oh don't worry Stella is my sister and you're mine so I don't mind much, you're still new in the supernatural or else you would know that for us beings who live for an eternity, conventional relationships are not the norm. If it were not because Stella and I had been isolated from a good part of the supernatural community, me because of my freakish powers and Stella because of her nature and father, Stella would have just used a human for a one night stand despite the possibility of him dying during the act. Most supernatural wouldn't bat an eyelid doing this.'' she spoke after my silence as if sensing my thoughts.

I listened to her and even though I still couldn't understand the way these beings thoughts, I decided to stay open as I was now part of this world.
« When will you be back ?»
''I am not sure even though I am supposed to be on a mission, I keep feeling something is wrong, the group I am here to apprehend is more tricky than I thought.''
« I thought you were there for an issue inside the branch of your clan? » I send puzzled.
''I thought so too but my dear father didn't inform me about this, I think after the party and my massive leap in strength when I drank your blood had him frightened'' she said melancholically
« Don't worry about it. The group you've mentioned what are they? » I comforted then asked her
''Well they are a group composed of numerous individuals there are rogue vampires, mages, some werewolves. They are massively massacring humans in this city. The number of deaths is staggering. Even though normally a few death wouldn't warrant my intervention, these numbers are…, it's getting more difficult to cover their mess under the piercing eyes of the human authority. They even started assigning squad to apprehend the culprits'' she answered feeling tired.
« Did you learn their goal? » I asked solemnly.
''No this is what worries me there are no particular patterns to it. The situation is getting tense a few members of the local branch have disappeared too. I assume the worst.'' she said coldly
I could feel her anger at this situation.
''So I won't be able to come back anytime soon,'' she said regretfully.
''Also I learned about the attempt on your life by these werewolves, I had one of my subordinates looked into it and it seemed they were mercenary for hire. I don't know their employer but I know their actual location I will send you their coordinates via smartphone,'' she said casually.
« Thank you. Don't work too hard,» I said which made her cold face let out a beautiful smile. After our goodbyes, I cut the connection.
I stood up from my seated position and went to the railings. observing the city. I felt something wicked was coming my way soon. With my heightened sense, I noticed that my feelings were usually accurate so this and the news brought by Chloe made me wary.
I shake those thoughts and returned to the now. I was amazed by the power of my WILL. I managed to communicate with Chloe despite the hundreds of kilometers separating us, although I felt exhausted mentally I still felt this would become one of my most powerful weapons as most of the supernaturals were already extremely strong physically. My upgraded body wasn't enough to give me an edge during the fights.
'DING'
I had received a notification, taking my phone I saw that it was a message with some coordinate attached. I looked at it and thought 'GOTCHA'.
Although I looked unbothered by that ambush last time, I did something about it, I told Stella to ask Chloe if she could find the responsible. And now that she came through it was time for payback.
But first I went to sleep. What? you too would be exhausted if you had spent the one night and half a day with Stella.

The Indigo Empire has conquered half the world’s nations, their people, and their gods. According to its citizens, old and new, the rest of the world will follow. In the capital of the Throne-home, the Imperial Academy produces the next generation of great leaders to drive that expansion. Cadryn Bence knows he will be one such leader, he’s overcome his common birth, mixed heritage, and every other obstacle to be the top of his class. He dreams of glory on the southern front against the Gravanik States. He will not be finding it. Instead, if the glory he expects. Far to the north, lies the unassumingly named North-Eastern Extreme Frontier Tower, a backwater post if ever there were one. Through the machinations of the Emperor’s state religion, and a cult within it, Cadryn will find himself on his way to this first assignment. On the frontier, Cadryn will discover that neither his campions, nor the Neeft itself, are what he expects. Follow Cadryn on his journey to discover many truths: about himself, about the Empire, and about the very world he call home. ****** Keepers of the Neeft is a (bit dark) fantasy story revolving around Cadryn and his journey of discovery. There’s a fairly wide cast of supporting characters (his fellow Keepers) all with their own reasons and motivations behind how they came to be at the Neeft. Current release plan is to have part 2 completed, then fully edit up till the end of part 2. I am in the process of editing the earlier content as I complete the updates/re-writes. Apologies for any rough content in the meantime. My primary objective with Keepers of the Neeft is to work on developing content flow and establishing a community of people who enjoy my writing style. I write SF/F and horror as my primary genres, Keepers is actually my 3rd novel length work, but my current project. Updates of new Content will currently be in the form of one larger post on Tuesdays.

-------------- "Let's leave my origins. We both have unspeakable origins. But the problem is I know of your origins. Galan of Taa." John said. Galactus' eyes squinted as John said his real name out loud. He never expected someone totally out of nowhere knew his actual name. "Never expected an unknown guy would know my origins. So what of it? I don't think it matters where I came from." Galactus replied. "It doesn't. You did what you had to do to survive. But the problem is you made a deal with the devil." John replied. Galactus looked at John with more stoic eyes now. He had done many things in the past and he made many bad decisions. He just wasn't sure what John was referring to so he was silent. John seeing that Galactus was silent and refused to speak said "Black Winter is coming." -------------When a cinephile and an otaku/weeb travels through dimensions and gets a system which can only be described as overpowered but comes with restrictions. At first he was overjoyed with the system but soon realizes that he is in a very dangerous world where his life was at risk all the time. (There will be no change in the canon until the New York War ends) Disclaimer : I am not an economist so I might have done some mistakes in the economics section of the story. If you have suggestions to make it better you can leave in the comments. Warning - The MC won't be OP from the start itself and will grow to a powerful character in due time. The starting feels a bit odd because I am totally new to writing a novel and I don't have an editor so the conversations and descriptions might be little stiff. I have been trying to improve. The romance in the story is very little and I understand that its badly written. I am sorry about that but no need to worry. It doesn't have any effect in the story. The story is assumed on the fact that the reader at least knows the plot of Marvel movies and some popular animes. All the other elements are explained as much as possible. P.S. This story is based on pure Marvel Multiverse
