《The Diamond Of Eve》Chapter 4.5: A pep talk
Advertisement
Under the universal realms of power lays a god, Kylus and a droplet of water fell into those realms, but this droplet once touched by Kylus had dispersed revealing a boy.
Lifting up his arms, Kylus was ready for something.
"Wakey wakey"
A few gentle small slaps to the face of the boy, soon enough though, he would wake up.
"HEH!?"
Popping his eyes open, the Main character of the story had a widened look, after a small moment passed he turned his head and looked at everything surrounding him, he was in a blank space.
"Okay, why does this always happen to me?" He mumbled under his breath.
"Because... You're the main character" said Kylus
"What?"
"eh-errr I mean y-you are the uh... you were just dreaming about hot babes and a beach right?"
"Ahhh yeah... where the hells the beach?" Said the boy while looking around.
Kylus immediately turned around.
"Anyways, so, I have summoned you to a new world, in this new world you have 3 wishes of power I can grant you, now you better not make these a stupid wish otherwise they will be stuck with you forever" Kylus spoke indifferently.
Upon hearing the word wish, the boy's eyes glinted up like a shining metal.
"Uh... Wishes you say?" He turned his head in a very condescending manner.
"Yes, 3 wishes of power, meaning I will allow only 3 as a gift"
With a silent follow up the boy had started to think to himself very hard, he didn't want to mess up on this type of problem.
"Any type of wish of power? like a skill or a specific ability?"
"Not every type, only a skill or ability, for example; I wouldn't give you the power to destroy everything otherwise you'd probably best my power albeit I do happen to be a god myself, say a simple ability that makes you unique I will allow up to that point"
Kylus happened to be very curt when explaining what he had to elaborate, he, of course, wanted the boy to quickly choose so he can get back to his tasks.
As he had heard, his slight confused expression turned to that of a very introverted grin, smacked onto his face.
"Then I guess this is pretty simple, I want the ability to have all the other abilities"
After that, a very deep silence surrounded the two, and then the god who has his serious composure broke into crazy laughter.
"Pfff, Ahahahahahah, I didn't expect that sort of answer" he laughed.
It had caused him so much humor that it had made him roll on the floor back and forth, this to him, was entertainment.
"Well? are you going to grant it or not?"
Still not listening, Kylus was still laughing, taking his sweet time until the very last moment had passed.
"Are you done yet?"
"Ahaha, aha, yeah" Wiping tears from under his eyes he then crossed his arms.
With a smile he proceeded to speak, "You, of course, don't seem to understand, I can't grant something like that it's absolutely impossible.

"Man, you're offering me 3 lousy wishes and honestly I haven't even questioned anything yet, in fact, I am pretty surprised I haven't asked myself, then allow me to ask this, why exactly are you offering me this, where am I?"
"Very well, I suppose I do owe you an explanation about this all"
In the flick of a finger he caused a ripple of space in thin air, allowing them to see through it, and what could be seen through it was the house he was in, the bed he was sleeping on, it was himself.
"Now then, I suppose before we begin, you could at least introduce yourself now won't you?"
"Right... I'm Lucas, I was a Highschool student before... well before all of this had happened, I don't know where this place was, or even if it existed, but somehow I did feel odd when I came here, like I didn't feel like there was anything wrong, I felt indifferent when usually I would slightly try harder to get to know where I am"
"That's right Lucas, you were a student, but although all of this happened, do you think you can guess why you're here?"
Lucas had crossed his arms, and slightly calmed his stance, he hadn't thought about that, but something told him that there was a sure reason why he would ever be here in the first place.
"No, I can't really put my finger on it I guess."
While both of them were looking through the ripple, the image then changed showing a kingdom and grassy plains with mountains on the far reaches of its horizons.
"This land is called Enosha, and in this land, monsters, demons, demi-humans, even demi-gods like from those fairy tase you have believed or heard of in your life, live in the fray, rare are the chances you'll come across a demi-god though but if you have to fight one good luck with that heh. Anyways, the main gist of it all is that I have brought you into this world to settle a bet I made with an enemy of mine, his name is Calix, and he is the god of revenge"
After explaining that slight part he flicked his hand to the left from the right and it had shown Lucas a fiery blazing inferno with a throne in the center of it all, and in the throne was sitting an elegantly dressed child with blazing eyes, and red fiery hair.
"That little boy on the throne that you see there, although he looks like a boy it's actually his physical figure, but that is the god of revenge, Calix. And the bet that I had made was that If we picked our champions and allowed them to soon duel, then whoever was their victor, one of us would give up our godhood"
Kylus was rather speaking in a gentle tone but didn't leave anything out of what he had to say.
"Oh, that's nice....so basically... You brought me into a fight that I had no say in, and then just decided that I would then fight to the death with a person who I have not one single Idea which would expectedly beat me?" Asked Lucas in a calm manner.

"Well, yeah basically"
Kylus scratched his head while awkwardly letting out a laugh.
"Ugh, very well then, I would burst out into anger but seeing that I don't really have it in me I don't think thats the way to go."
"you're taking this rather well, so anyways now you know the gist of it all, you get 3 wishes, but you better hurry, time doesn't go on forever you know?"
Uncrossing his arms, Lucas nodded about the whole ordeal.
"Okay so my first wish, I want to be able to have an affinity with any weapon that I can get my hands on"
With that started Kylus gently smiled, raised his fist and lifted a finger from it.
"Secondly I want to be able to understand any and every language there is"
Kylus raised a brow and lowered his hands.
"Wait, but I will allow you to be able to understand the language in this world, there isn't any need for that"
"If you say that, do you also mean the language of the monsters and the animals and demons as well?"
"Er... no, I don't mean that" Said Kylus in a light dejection.
"Very well then, allow me to have that sort of ability, to be able to understand every living thing there"
"Alright, now what about the last wish?"
Before answering the last wish, Lucas wanted to ask a last question, he wanted to be sure about what type of world this is.
"Before I give in the last wish, I want to know what type of world this is although I know I will find out myself, what can I do to be able to know If I am going to die, or how can I prevent that?"
"well there's many ways, but you'd mainly have to keep an eye on enlargening your array of abilities, say you try to learn a skill, there's about 3 main ways to learn a new skill or ability or capability that you can use, for example, say you want to learn a skill through a book, you can if the book contains a sigil, however, it wouldn't be as great as learning a skill you forced by your own will, another way would be from a scroll or written paper sealed with magic encrystalment, which is basically taking a skill than using a way to chain it down from your own with a magic ability"
"So then if that's so, wouldn't it be better to learn a skill on your own?"
"Yeah, but the process of doing so takes an abundance of time"
"I see... how about the ability to steal a skill?"
Kylus had slightly grinned.
"I see where you're going but that's not an ability I can allow you to have, yet you can attain an ability that lets you learn something faster then any other would, how about it?"
"Hm.. well, if that's another option then give me the ability to have an increased ableness to learn anything 5x faster then anyone else," Said Lucas.
"Very well if it's as you say"
Kylus had held his fist with 3 fingers, and at the last second of his words, his hand had flared a blazing white flare of fire.
This white flare had consumed Lucas, and in awe and bewilderment, he had looked at his arms and legs.
"Welp, I believe this is as long as we can talk for, we have overpassed the time limited, but there's not matter, ah and here's a small point of advice, get a change of clothes, those rags on you both make you guys stand out too much."
With a quick glance at kylus, Lucas smiled in determination.
"I'll try not to get myself killed, and before I go, what your name?"
Kylus opened his arms as if he had shown him everything.
"I am Kylus, the God of the Dawning sun, it was my pleasure to have met you Lucas"
With this, a slight nod and in a flash, Lucas had returned to the physical realm.

"well, that was fun, it looks like we have someone who may be more loyal then I have expected, although the girl had nothing to do here I still ended up bringing her because of how close they were at the time, oh well."
While the ripple of space had still been there with the face of Calix, Calix had stood up, and moved towards the ripple, and spoke.
"So you've finnaly picked your choice?"
"Yes, in due time we will have our little bet settled, won't we Calix..."
"In due time, but don't let me remind you when your champion falls, it was you who insisted in such stupid bet, I never wanted anything to do with this you crazy fool"
"Hush now, Of course we both know that you are the one who broke the chain of gods, you became what you are because of what you did"
Kylus's expression had changed, he was smiling.
"And who's fault was that? Pardon me but It was you who started this, and now you just want to continue this endless banter and fighting, You're a fool who thinks of only yourself Kylus"
Kylus had never stopped smiling.
"Well then, lets finish this little Calix"

RETURN, A Dark Lord story.
Return, Synopsis In the Triangulum Galaxy, one of a number of galaxies controlled by the Empire of The DARK LORD, JENNA OF CHRISTOS finds herself on the run after she killed a patrolman. Becoming pilot on a pirate craft, several years later she and other pirates are devastated by attacks of the Imperial Legion and are now trying to regroup. Seeking funds that will help them hide out for a time, their leader THURGOD DRISTA and JENNA meet with a PROFESSOR of galactic history who gives them information, a map and an ancient artifact described as a singing stone. He tells them that this could lead them safely to a legendary treasure trove, called THE DARK LORDS HOARD, on the forbidden planet TRILLA. The hoard is supposed to belong to the ruler of the empire who vanished close to one thousand years before and is presumed to be gone. The treasure is believed to be hidden in a tunnel accessible from the planet surface but no one who has gone into the tunnel has ever come out alive or sane. Leaving the pirate hideout immediately after the meeting and avoiding a major attack by the legion, the pirates travel to the galactic rim for supplies and to leave a false trail. With them they take the PROFESSOR and ILISA, a serving girl. However CAPTAIN TRASKA the commander of a Legions task force called Detachment T, has guessed the pirates intentions and tracked them to the rim. The pirates leave on their next leg to TRILLA unaware that CAPTAIN TRASKA with his force of heavy cruisers, is already there and lying in wait for them. Allowing the pirates to land, including an unexpected second pirate ship, CAPTAIN TRASKA sends a force of troopers to capture both craft and their guards. Before they can do this, THURGOD, the PROFESSOR and others, numbering thirteen altogether and led by JENNA entered the tunnel complex. JENNA, warned by ILISA that she must be the one to hold the singing stone, carries it in the hope that it will guide her and her companions past the many dangers in the tunnel. Shortly afterward, VIS VISTRICER the Legions overall commander travels to Trilla in an armoured planetoid, a spacecraft as large as a moon. On his arrival at TRILLA, VIS VISTRICER meets with CAPTAIN TRASKA but before they can do much, they are both surprised by one of the LADIES OF THE CIRCLE who is waiting for the outcome of what is happening in the tunnels. In the tunnels, JENNA leads THURGOD and the rest of party through many dangers and tests. Four are killed in the tunnels but the rest finally come to their goal where, to their surprise, in a cavern they meet the DARK LORD who is alive and very well. He has been waiting for them so he can return to the Empire. JENNA finds out that the patrol officer is alive and that she and many others have been manipulated all this time by the DARK LORD. She also finds out that ILISA, whose real name is JURA, is a member of the CIRCLE OF LADIES and was sent to teach JENNA many years before on her home planet of Christos. The DARK LORD restores and fulfills a promise to release JURA from her service as a LADY. He next has each pirate declare their own fate and takes them to the surfaces of TRILLA. There, at their election, he executes two of the pirates while JENNA is pardoned and some have the death penalty reprieved. The rest will face the courts of the Legion. VIS VISTRICER is raised to the rank of STAR COMMANDER, the highest rank in the Legion while TRASKA becomes a COMMODORE. The DARK LORD returns to Tihab, the administrative centre of the empire. There he takes up his residence in a surprised and disconcerted imperial palace. JENNA is returned by COMMODORE TRASKA to the planet Christos where she is welcomed by the planets rulers and her family, some of whom were aware of some of what was happening.
