《The false master of death》Chapter 14 - The false master of death

The inheritance or legacy are the gifts built by one throughout his life, to give them, whether they want to or not, to the people who are symbolically under his shadow.
And throughout thinking history, many people lived and built their gifts in an endless loop, repeating trends or sometimes innovating learning from previous legacies, but in the end, there is always something to give and contribute to the long record that makes up history. And now today, in a dark ancient study, on a lonely afternoon, a story, a will is finally obtained after a long time, giving way to the beginning of another story.
[
For whoever reads this.
Greetings dear reader, I hope that whoever reads this may have some sanity after arriving here.
I introduce myself, I am Angus Laprase, the former chief magician of the royal order of magician of the kingdom of Osmaria, and adoptive brother of the last king of it, and this is my story, I hope it can serve as wisdom for those who read it.
I was born and lived as an orphan in the middle class in this city, when I was 5 years old, on the day of general baptism, as is the custom here, I went to check my magical affinity like many others, where tragically-it came to light that I was born with the very strong dark attribute as well as a high amount of base mana.
The horror of my parents was such that they almost threw me into the streets, but fortunately, the royal family was present and as if taken from a children's story, I was welcomed by them for pity and for my latent talent I think.
It was then that my golden age began, being from the royal family, I had the opportunity to develop my magical potential by becoming over time, a genius recognized by all and a war hero, but more than titles and knowledge what I really appreciated It was a good family, although busy with their duties they were good.
Not everything was good in my life, my attribute haunted me making my relationships difficult, which is why when I reached adulthood I was still single, but I overcame that with my love of study and a good family to love and protect.
It was very sad when my parents the king and queen died in an altercation in the castle because of some assassins from a neighboring kingdom, my brother now the king and I, as the head of the magicians, we promised to make pay, giving rise to the era of the glorious conquest of the kingdom, but for us, or at least for me, it was a time of hatred and mourning.

Our conquest after 20 years came to an end, with the destruction of the assassins of our parents, finally our kingdom and we, we could be happy again, but even with the emptiness of our parents.
Little did I know that 5 years later, something happened that would turn my life upside down, do not expect a great drama, because it was suddenly, one day like any other, I was summoned to the throne room to give my reports, but when I got there I only expected treason and my own brother, his excuse is that it was very dangerous and sinister for the kingdom, and that is why he was going to be subjected and put in prison, do not accept it, of course not, I replied several times, I demanded better answers, but no, they did not want me, therefore I escaped carrying all my hatred.
What followed was a dark time, looking for ways to get revenge, I learned sinister and heretical arts from some small dark wizards, and I improved them.
Then already in the middle of my life, I scourged the kingdom with death and destruction, giving me the satisfaction of seeing all the wretches who condemned me for crimes dying in agony that now I was making reality.
Finished my work, with no more around me than many dead, I decided to relax and continue studying for pleasure, improving my techniques and skills, but when I got old, I began to reason my life, my history, and what I will leave behind.
Reader, I do not regret having massacred everyone and leaving this kingdom in ruins, the only thing that fills me with regret is that with my power it did not occur to me, meeting other people like me, so if you really are a dark wizard, yes you inject your dark magic into this will, the magic seals will be passed to you that will give you the privileges of entry to my private study where all my knowledge lies, as well as it will give you control of all my undead becoming your master.
I just hope that the one who inherits this is someone who has lost everything like me and uses this inheritance to find happiness
From Angus Laprase, the master of the dead.

"Ohh it seems that you did too badly, Angus, my respects, and thanks for the gift, I wish I had met you in your old age when you were in good spirits and if what you say is true I will see you as my first real master."

Refnier thanked his predecessor of circumstance, and one of the greatest evils in modern history, to carefully imbue his sinister mana, inside the blade causing it to emerge sinister strands of magic, which crossed his body accommodating and forming 2 seals inside his soul.
"This was creepy, umm I suppose one is the key and the other is for control, how they work, well I'll see, I have plenty of time for that, now Ragnatium I suppose with this we conquered this kingdom, now we proceed to investigate that study."
and being animated, he went in search of the private study of the master of the dead, but not before eating a little.
Each person in his brief existence creates and forms his own history and path through his decisions or unforeseen events and now in Refnier's life, this is only the beginning of a volume in his history, but not before concluding his stage current with a decision that would mark its course to follow.
This decision occurred a day later at the same hours in the afternoon when he read the will, when Refnier carrying his master's journal and accompanied by Ragnatium, entered the gigantic throne room for the first time through the main door, marveling at the Sublime view caused by its spaciousness and architecture adorned by the dust and cobwebs of the passage of time.
Then Refnier emerging from his stupor, looked forward, but there was the central corridor, formed relatively by the rows of columns on both sides of the room, found at the end where you could see an elevation where the only chair in the room was, but not any chair, a great chair made of marble and gold, with elaborate details in all places whose back rose to the ceiling, no, it was not a chair, it was the royal throne.
And fixing his objective Refnier walked until he reached the front, where he could see a simple golden crown, of which only had an oval elevation where a gem should go, Refnier smiling, grabbed it, put it on and then sat on the throne.
Once seated, I contemplate with Ragnatium in his lap, the ruined landscape that was once a hectic and sublime real environment and then he began to remember in his life since he was an innocent child, in his first accident in town, in the meeting of his only friend, the fun with him and his fiancee, the accident of the festival, the death of his friend, the days of studies and efforts, the betrayal of his fiancee, the expulsion of his family, the betrayal of his uncle and his adventure through these desolate lands.
Finishing remembering, I take a deep breath and declare to myself.
"I have no one, I feel sadness, I feel hatred, but even so, I kept going on advice from people who turned their backs on me and by my own search for hope, now I am here, inheriting the knowledge of one of the most infamous magicians Dark as well as his ruined kingdom, I made up my mind a long time ago when Lifnerion died, but I will declare it here as well as the path I will follow, before nobody but me and the remnant souls that still inhabit the place."
"I Refnier Arkas Domiteer Colosses, from now on I will be called Refnier Arkas Lifnerion Laprase to the honor of my old friend and the master Angus."
"From today I name myself as king and sovereign of these earth full of death and darkness, and I will rename them as the kingdom Dawn, in honor of the new beginning and of the light after the darkness."
"And lastly, I reiterate my path in magic, declaring that I will follow the path of the golem and will not fall or use dark and heretic magic no longer in dire need, but nevertheless I will continue to study it only for its useful knowledge, as what I have been doing so far."
"Let the luck, the coincidence, and the strength of the inhabitants, take care and bring prosperity to this ruined new kingdom ¡Peace and prosperity to the kingdom of Dawn!."

An unknown accident leading to an amnesia and a twisted psyche. Forced away from his daily life, forced to play the Game, for reasons untold. To fight for his survival, to fight for answers. To become strong, to fight and survive for even the chance to find out why was this injustice done to him. The only way to beat the game is to play the game. And it must be played perfectly. Chronicles of melancholy, of an everlasting grayness, of sadness, despair and anger. A tale of a rise to power, or perhaps a fall from grace.

8 235I am a genius so I don't need a strong cheat to survive
The Human Kingdom of Talkia is at war against the Demon Federation Lorran. In an attempt to gain the upper hand, Talkia decided to use the hero summoning ritual, a magic ceremony that summons soldiers from another world bestowed with the blessing of the god Wion. This time, seven heroes answered the call. "Hello, I am Eun-Ha, Sung Eun-Ha, the incredible genius who got many engineering degrees and a PhD in physics at the young age of twenty-one. Ah? You are wondering why I am surrounded by a creepy group wearing some robes while I am dressed in some over exposing magical girl outfit? Haha, well... I was kidnapped by my friend to a comic convention and then she was surrounded by some ominous light so I just pushed her away and voilà! I am now an amazing hero who is going to kill monsters. Yay!" "Does that kidnapper that calls himself the king really believes that I would obey him?! Let's just put the sweetest smile that I can muster to fool him and then let's escape from this place. I don't care if he says that he knows the way to return to Earth, I am not stupid enought to believe some kidnapper, I am going to find my own way home, I don't care if my cheat is weak compared to the other heroes, as a genius there is no problem that I can't solve!" This story follows the adventures and desventures of Sung Eun-Ha, a genius that has a tendency to do idiotic things without thinking.
8 179Why The Hell Not
Sweat started to form all around my body as the pain consumed me. It was 9pm and this had to be the worst wave of heat I've ever experienced! My body ached as the flames traveled from my core, spreading to the rest of my body. I hate heat, every type of heat, but mainly this one. Heat, in my pack, is a bitch! The second you turn 16 your heat starts. Then for the rest of your life you get a heat cycle once a month, as if having a period isn't bad enough. The heat happens right after your period, leaving you 2 weeks of peace as a woman if you find your mate your 16 years of life! If you did not find your mate at 16, when you turn 17 it will be every 2 weeks! Your period is still once a month, thankfully, but the heat cycle directly after your period is the strongest! Leaving you ONE week of peace...unless of course you don't find your mate by the time you turn 17. If you are unlucky enough to not have found your mate by the time you are 18, then yes it will be EVERY week! Leaving you NO peace!!Basically the longer you go without finding your mate, the more heat you will go through. If you're 20+ then it could be EVERY hour! Once you find your mate it goes back down to once a month, thankfully. Lucky, or lucky for me, I'm 17...meaning I've gotta deal with this every 2 weeks. This one in particular is the worst one yet! I grabbed the water on the side of my bed and tried to fix my dry throat.......
