《Re:Incubus》Redemption, Rebirth.
Advertisement
The darkness in Akira eyes suddenly went away instead he took in a room filled with beautiful art, and statues, he found himself confused was this heaven or hell?
“Hello is anyone there?”
He stood there for 5 minutes waiting into he felt like an idiot expecting anything magical to happen, if he wanted to find a way out he would have to rely on himself, once he was about to explore the castle, he heard a gentleman like voice calling to him.
“Hello, my name is Alan, I'll be your guide from here on out please follow me my master wishes to speak with you.”
Akira wasn't just going to follow some stranger without knowing what he wanted from him, if the man in front of him was a beauty he may have given it some thought but would've still been cautious.
“Who's your master? And why does he wish to speak with me?”
“My master is the Archangel of this realm, he wishes to speak to you about something that may spark your interest.”
'How did I of all people end up in heaven? Well no matter I will at least listen to what these people or should I refer to them as Angels want.
“And that is?”
Alan only smiles then says.
“Redemption.”
“Redemption? What do you mean by that?”
“My master will explain to you shortly please follow me.
Akira being a student of martial arts knew how to keep calm under a strange situation, so he only nodded with a confident look on his face, while inwardly being angry at himself for not having control over the situation, without having a deck to play you'll always be a victim to your opponent, he had to quickly find out what's going on in order to assure his safety, he could only quietly follow the butler.
The butler opened a door leading to a throne gesturing Akira to walk inside, the white haired kid on top of the throne eyes gave a kingly feeling as though everyone was below him, with his long silver wings it only made him seem more kingly, Akira wasn't affected at all by this, only walking forward into him and the angel were looking at each other in the eye.
“I'm the Archangel Leroxor and you're Joseph I assume.”
Before Akira even had the time to give a reply the kids face was filled with disappointment.
“So you're the owner of the black heart, surely not as great as the legends told just looking at you makes me pity you.”
Akira was starting to get annoyed, especially since this smug looking son of a bitch had the nerve to look down on him, plus use his first name like they were close, Akira wanted to use the nice guy mask at first but now that angel crossed the line, so he pushed his luck if the angel wanted to kill him he would have all ready, and even if he did what would Akira be afraid of he was all ready dead, he had no idea what a black heart was or any of this other crap.
“Stop rambling and get to the point, you presumptuous little shit.”
The White haired Archangel was somewhat shocked that the young man would dare speak to him the mighty Leroxor in such a way even in his childlike human form he should be giving off an aura which would make Duke level Demons be afraid, yet this mortal could speak without even showing an expression of fright, this only made him even more interested in the young man, that had the black heart within him.

“Right to the point I see, fine I'll tell you why you're here and not being sent to be tortured in the pits of hell right now by Alan for your disrespect to me, you possess the Black Heart an ancient Demon realm item forged by one of the great Satans Beelzebub during the great war, those with the Black Heart were said to be gods among men, demons, and angels alike, they were said to be able to slay Dragons, Archangels, and Archfiends, all at once, of course compared to God himself they were nothing but bugs, those with the black heart were elite warriors of the demon realm their main defense but, all the black heart users that lived long ago have passed away, the demon realm has become a shell of it's former self, that is why I must find a way to rid you of it, if it's left in your care I'm sure some powerful demon or dragon power hungry enough may seek it out, god knows what some evil being may do with it.”
Akira could only laugh and say.
“Ha! This is rich, I only want my perfect life back and payback against that bitch, with this so called “black heart” it should be able to benefit me in my quest for revenge, why should I care at all about what happens to you people, I won't gain anything from giving up my heart.”
The white haired man has an indifferent look in his eyes and says.
“You must be mistaken Human, this isn't a request, didn't Alan inform you of what I would do, you'll earn your redemption by getting your soul erased for the greater good, that is the only way to destroy the black heart, you should be thankful god will forgive you for your sins, I'll remove the black heart from you even by force.”
Akira suddenly felt cold energy coming from the angel.
“Oi! Oi! You shouldn't lie to the kid, God has been dead since The Great War, I should know I chopped his head off myself, I can't have this kid dying yet he's much too interesting.”
The white haired angel had a look of anger on his face.
“So it's you Niracan, fool God never dies, he's been reborn once and it'll happen again, us his loyal children will wait for him as long as it takes, all the other angels may be afraid of you, but I shall stay true to my father and slay his killer.”
The blue haired demon only whistled not even giving the angel a second glance, instead she looked at Akira like waiting to devour her prey, when he looked into her big pink cat like eyes, and long eyelashes, it seduced him without her even talking, Akira suddenly felt a feeling within him that he hasn't felt before in his whole life, his stomach was burning up with butterfly’s, of course he just dismissed it as fear, he would never have the thought of attraction since her body wasn't as developed compared to other girls that he usually would date in his old life, if he had to label her she would be a loli type of character in some anime.
“*yawn* Like I haven't heard that thousand of times before, all you angels do is talk big shouting about how holy and righteous you're, yet here you are trying to kill this kid with the excuse it's for the greater good, bunch of hypocrites we demons may not be all great ourselves but at least we don't lie about what we are.”

“Silence Demon!”
The angel wings covered his whole body, making him shine like the sun he was covered in silver bright armor, with five wings on his back he was slightly taller than before with a silver mask on his face, that had a blue gem near the middle of his forehead.
After the transformation was done, the angel attacked the blue haired girl only to hit air, the blue haired demon who had a bored expression on her face only dodged him into he eventually got tired, seeing him vulnerable and defenseless, falling into despair she started smiling like a devil, when she saw a drop of his blood fall, immediately she parried the angels spear with her sword, then licked her lips slashing down onto the angels wings one by one, flesh, bones, and blood was all over the place, the silver walls covered in red, the angel had a look of terror on his face then quickly backed away, of course the blue haired demon wasn't going to let him off the hook that easily.
The girl closed in on him with her aqua colored blade preparing to deal the final blow, before it hit the butler named Alan tried to block her with his dagger, this was a foolish mistake indeed prolonging his masters life, while sacrificing himself in the process truly a loyal comrade,
“Alan!”
Ignoring the screams of the angel she whispered a chant to herself silently.
“Nine Circling Blades.”
Nine blades that had a blue aura surrounded the angel trapping him without any escape, she slowly closed her fist resulting with the blades coming closer and closer to him slowly, when they were 1 inch away he closed his eyes accepting his fate, to his surprise they weren't coming any closer, when he finally regained his hope, she closed her fist ending his life with a wicked grin on her face.
“Archangels these days complete weaklings, how I missed the old days of fighting Gabriel and Michael, ohhh well at least I found another way to relive my boredom.”
The blue haired girl turned towards Akira coming closer and closer to him, after inspecting him with her eyes she said.
“Aww so adorable, the way you back away like a scared pup just makes me want to lock you up in my torture chamber back home, ah but I got off topic, I should introduce myself first, I'm Niracan Kamiati God of The Demon Realm nice to meet you.
after regaining his sanity, he calmed himself down then replied to her.
“....I'm Joseph Akira, wait did you just say god?”
“Did I say It wrong?, oh no matter I'll say it again I'm Niracan Kamiati God of The Demon Realm nice to meet you Akira.”
Akira was shocked, a little girl like her God of Demons, he's saw her power first hand, yet it's still hard to believe, eventually after receiving weird stares from her, he accepted it, usually he would rush her to get to the point, but he didn't want to end up as chopped meat like a certain angel over there, so he decided on using the nice guy act.
“I heard both of you mention realms, yet I have no idea what that means could you please explain this for me?.”
“Kay, during The Great Wars me and the three other gods with our followers fought against each other for control of the universe, of course the war only resulted in all of our races being weakened therefore we agreed to spitting the universe in half, ending up with the three factions today named The Dragon Realm, The Demon Realm, The Human and Angel Realms which are very close to each other, that's why most of us refer to them as the same realm, The Human realm is very weak with no god of it's own, resulting with it having to rely on the Angel realms protection, of course there are humans in the other realms but most have no idea of the existence of their homeland the same can be said for the other races, if there are any other realms out there then we would have no idea of knowing as of now.”
After Akira processed all this information in his head he felt very satisfied in gaining new knowledge that would be useful later down the road, it was time for him to ask a question that was on his mind for a while now.
“Why did you save me from that angel?
The girl only had a devious smile on her face and whispered in his ear.
“Mostly Out of Boredom, but...I really really want to devour the welder of the black heart, unfortunately I wasn't able to find you when you were alive, therefore there is most likely zero chance of a spirit mastering the black heart, that's why I came up with a solution.
“What do you mean solution? Don't I have a body right now? I can walk and move my hands around perfectly, I look the same as when I was in my old world”
The girl's face was full of pity then said.
“That's..wrong you're actually dead right now, you aren't revived or alive at all, the only thing that's here is your spirit, your physical body is gone, the only reason that you look exactly the same as when you were alive Is due to your spirit remembering that form the most.”
The idea that he was dead finally went through his head, Akira thought about his family, friends, and even that girl who killed him, he knew that if he refused to move on from his lost and start anew then he wouldn't be able to reclaim his perfect life, not even being able to get his revenge either therefore....
“I understand, how would I be able to come back to life then? What's the solution?”
“I owe this all to chopped up angel over there, when he mentioned the idea of reincarnation, It solved all my problems, It'll get rid of that weak human body and give you the ability to master the black heart, I may have to wait 30 years or so for you to be at your best, but the wait is nothing compared to the boredom I have endured during my life time, I want to fight an equal opponent in a life and death situation.
Akira thought this little girl was a weirdo she risked her life to save him just so she could fight him, but he sure wasn't going to turn down a chance to be reborn, there's a chance that he might even be able to avoid her finding him in his next life.
“How will you go about this exactly?”
The girl had an evil smile on her face and said.
“We gods have our secrets, all you need to do is close your eyes and pass me your head it'll be over in an instant for you.”
Akira was hesitating but he knew that he wouldn't get a chance like this ever again so he went towards the girl bowing his head so she could reach it, when her small hands touched his head he felt a shock then instantly everything went dark.
END
That's all for now guys I'm way too tired to release anymore, so I apologize for any mistakes or if Akira seems out of character wasn't really paying attention, next chapter will be more focused on the new world he is in and his new body etc.

As the Godking Wills
The Empire and the Church span almost the entirety of the known world, absent some pockets of lawlessness and the realms of the deceiver. They are governed as a despotic theocracy, ruled in name by the solitary and omnipotent God, Al'Shazan.In practice, Al'Shazan is bored, flighty, cruel and has little interest in ruling the Empire. Instead the Empire is run by the High Priest, Minister of the Treasury, and the Knight Commander of the inquisition. Their job is to make sense of the contradictory nonsense spewed forth by their living God while simultaneously ruling the greatest nation that the world has ever known. The entire time, they have to maintian the facade that Al'Shazan is a benevolent and loving God in order to maintain morale in the general populace. --------- The actual genre for this is more along the lines of a Fantasy Political Comedy/Drama/Thriller. It will not be 'crunchy' (minimal action, minimal descriptions of powers/abilities) but instead be focusing on world building and political maneuvering. As a warning, it is fairly dark.
