《The Revenge of the Devil of Conquest Vol.1》Chapter 6 Path
Advertisement
A week has pass by as Saber was making his way back to the school he looked at the note that Ato give him back at the cafe weird he said to himself as few minutes later he made into Nxy's office
“Ah… Mr. Akamine. I was wondering when you will come back.”
“Sorry to keep you waiting. It's hard trying to grasp what I am and keeping it a secret to the others i needed a week to think some things over.”
“It's best to keep it that way… for now. Now, I know you must be wondering what that black Magic is and what it did to you. Well, have a seat because it's going to take a while to explain.”
Saber proceeded to take his seat and listened carefully to what Professor nxy was about to say about what this black Magic and black knight is.
“This black Magic is very, very rare. This black Magic has typically makes the host more prone to negative emotions.”
“Negative emotions?” Saber asked, starting to get frightened.
“Yes negative emotions. You will become more prone to depression, rage, jealousy, irritation, and you will become more insecure. Not only this, but you will likely be more prone to the need of revenge. Aside from all the negative things, this aura also enhances your strength, speed, and reflexes.”
“How do you know all this!?” Saber asked as he got up from his seat.
“This black Magic or darkness is what I like to call it, has been around in ancient times. I have read and done much research on it and I didn't believe it at first. However, after finding out the previous host, this made me realize that this power was possible to obtain. It picks its host randomly, however there are a few conditions that have to be met in order for the person to receive this power.
“A few conditions?” Saber asked.
“Yes. Only a person who is pure hearten can receive this power, for example you and your family."
“My family!?” Saber shocked at the information was shaken.
“Yes your family. The Akamines are known to be the most pure heated families in Japan. Which is why your family are the most likely to receive this power. Your great, great-grandfather in fact, had this power.”
“My great, great-grandfather!?”
“Yes. There have been documents and information about him having a black Magic that manifested into a full set of knight armor. Only a few people know about this darkness and it is still kept secret. Reason for this is because there would be many that would seek the host and try to get for themselves and who knows what they would do with this powerful gift or what I would like to call a curse.”

“… My grandfather, what happened to him when he received this… curse?” Saber asked.
“Your grandfather used this power to protect the people of remnant from dangerous demons and half human as well as corrupted individuals who posed a threat to peace, at the cost of his life.”
“The cost of his life?”
“According to the information that I managed to gather, he used his last ounce of strength to wipe out thousands of grim that had invaded a city long ago. It seems that this black Magic can wipe out the demons in an instant from miles away, at the cost of the host's life.”
Saber remained quiet. Shocked at the information he was provided, he had a hard time believing all of this. To think that his family is prone to this curse and that one member of his family had already fallen victim to it.
“Your grandfather had lost his family from a Half human attack. And from that attack, his spirit was broken, thus allowing him to receive this power. That is the other condition which I manage to find out. In your case, your sister was killed in front of your eyes and your spirit was broken as well.”
“What… what should I do…” Saber asked now trembling with fear.
“What you should do is do what your grandfather did all those years. Protect the world from a great catastrophe that might occur. Control this power like your grandfather and not let it overtake you like the previous hosts.”
“Like the previous hosts?” Saber said, as his eyes widened at that statement.
“This black Magic can only choose 2 hosts at a time in this world. The last host was completely swallowed by the darkness and had nearly destroyed a whole nation. I believe that the big catastrophes that occurred in the history of remnant were because of this Darkness. If it weren't for the four Queens, all would have been lost.”
“The four Queens?”
“The four Queens have a power that might be equal to that of someone who wields the darkness. The four Queens have a power that was given to by a wizard long ago. I believe that the Darkness and the Wizard could be related somehow, but with the information we have gathered, we can't be certain.”
“We?”
“I and four other individuals have been looking into all these lores about the 4 Queens and the darkness. Since you were one of the chosen by the Dark, it is safe to tell you who the other 3 are. The other three are Yuki-onna, Matheus, and James. They should be coming here momentarily.”

“You mean professor Yuki-onna!?” Saber asked, shocked at the fact that his own teacher knew about this.
“Yes. I was the one who instructed her to put you in a match when you arrived to class. Although it seemed you managed to put yourself first in the fight.”
“Don't remind me.” Saber said, rolling his eyes.
The elevator opened and there stood the 3 people who knew about the information.
“So where is the unlucky fool?” Matheus asked, as he walked out of the elevator smoking a cigarette.
“You're looking at him.” Nxy said.
“This scrawny Black haired boy with white highlights? You can't be serious. I thought it would be some buff looking bad ass.” Matheus said, as he looked at the scrawny Boy.
“HEY! I can be… bad ass…” Saber said looking down in shame.
“To think that an Akamine would once again be gifted with this power.” James said, as he observed Saber.
“For the last time James, this gift is nothing more than a burden.” Professor Yuki-onna said to the man.
“This burden, is something to our benefit. We can use this to our advantage against the criminals who attacked us and if we can use this boy to aid us, we can stop the people responsible.” James said.
“Or this kid can go insane and kill us all.” Matheus added,
“I won't do that! I… I want to be able to control this power so that I can get back to the person who killed my teammate.” Saber said, forming a fist in his right hand.
“Revenge huh. This should really play out smoothly now.” Matheus said as he continued drinking.
“Listen Mr. Akamine, I understand you want to get the vagabonds responsible for this incident, but you will not be the one pursuing the ones who are behind this. You will help us against their underlings, but the masterminds behind it, they will be answering to us.” Matheus told the boy who was sitting in front of him.
Saber got up from his seat and walked to the window that held a beautiful view of Ikebukuro Academy city and thought about what Ato said.
"Those monsters took hundreds of lives during the attack and one of the lives was Akari Akamine, a teammate and someone very close to me. I had to watch her as she slowly died on my arms. Do you know what it's like to see your world burn in front of your eyes? She was the one who helped me become a better fighter, she was the one who accepted me even though she knew I should have not been here, she was the one who loved me for who I was. A weak and defenseless student. Because of her death, this power had arisen from me and now I have to deal with the consequences that comes from it.”
Saber turned around and looked at the three who stood and looked at their eyes.
“DO YOU REALLY THINK THAT I DON'T DESERVE TO GET MY REVENGE!?” Saber yelled at the 2 who stood there shocked. Saber's eyes turned yellow and his black Magic began to slowly expel.
“Saber!” Professor nexy yelled.
“WHAT!?”
Saber looked at himself, noticing the black Magic that was resonating.
“I… I'm sorry.” Saber said as he quietly went back to his seat.
“It seems the kid's Magic responds to his anger” James said.
“Oh really? I thought it responded to his happiness.” Matheus said, glaring at James.
“Very well Saber, you will be helping us find the people responsible for this and by my orders, you will be working under Matheus.” Nxy said, as he looked at the drunk man.
“ME?! Why do I have to babysit this kid? I have important things to do other than watch this kid get in my way.”Matheus said as he glared at nxy.
“You will be training Saber to become a better hunters well as help him control the darkness. He will be also help you investigate anything that can lead to the people behind this and their whereabouts. Saber is also allowed to take any cases he is personally interested in.” Nxy said scowling at the Brown haired man.
“I refuse.” James stated.
“I think it would be best if he comes along with me. I have all the proper training equipment along with the latest technology that can help him become a better fighter. He will be able to increase his strength and fighting prowess at a faster rate than training with Matheus here. I can also prevent him from going completely insane if the Dark does consume him.” James stated.
“Why don't you let the boy decide where to go. He can stay here, he can go with Matheus, or he can go with James to Skynet.” Yuki-onna said to nxy who was sipping his coffee.
“Very well. Saber, what will you do? Stay here at school, go with Matheus, or with James?” Everyone stared at Saber with ears wide open.
“Well… I think… it would be best… if I…”

8 180The Strongest Hero VS The Weakest World?
There exist many worlds out in the universes. Within the Devine realm, the Gods manage each and every world carefully. That said, the worlds outnumber the Gods since there is an almost infinite number of worlds. Thankfully, every world doesn't need a God to work properly. Though, some worlds are in desperate need of some due to monsters or demons causing damage to them. To help isolate them and save the worlds, the Gods created a plan. The plan gives each world a rank that shows the danger level of the world. The plan also ranks each God depending on how powerful and wise they are. Then, each God gets assign to a world that matches their ability and rank. This said the Gods are unable to interact with the world directly. They can only do a couple of things, which none of the actions can save the world. Due to this, the Gods bring Heroes to their world so that the Heroes can save the world. The Heroes come from other worlds that have passed away. The plan picks out Hereos and then the Gods train them so that they are prepared to save the other world. Within the realm that the dead goes to for judgement, a person stands in line with a soul so bright it might be mistaken for a God. Later, this person is known as the Devine World Savior, though, if you would ask him, he will only say... "Huh? That was a low-ranking world. It was extremely easy!"
