《The Sleeping Immortal》Chapter 8 - Near death
Advertisement
Right as the sun started to rise, and sunlight started to sprinkle into the meadow reflecting off the dew that was left over from the night, Saeflywn awoke then softly crept into the room where Fiend Yuki was asleep. Seeing that Fiend Yuki was still asleep she quickly aproached him, yanking him off his bed hoping to startle him awake, only for it to end in failure. Sighing to herself Saeflywn waved her hand causing white mist to fly out wrapping up Fiend Yuki and placing him onto the bed once again.
Heading into the common room Saeflywn made a quick breakfast for the both of them. Only to be rewarded with 2 hours of waiting with nothing happening, causing Saeflywn to darken her face and storm out of the building and traverse into the forest.
Hours later when the sun was about to set Saeflywn returned opening the door expecting Fiend Yuki to be lounging around in the common room was prepared to put him through a harsh training session for his Cultivation. Sadly when she arrived no one was there, and Fiend Yuki was still snoozing away happily asleep still. With her eye twitching upon seeing his still sleeping figure, Saeflywn zoomed over to him and aimed a hand chop straight at his head, controlling her strength so it’s only leave a bruise on someone as weak as him. Yet right as her strike struck all that was heard was a *PING* and Fiend Yuki happily snoozing away still.
Looking in shock at Fiend Yuki then back at her hand Saeflywn this time struck harder at him with a strike that would normally kill an average human to be rewarded with another *PING* and Fiend Yuki still asleep. Glancing in horror at Fiend Yuki’s forehead, Saeflywn struck another 10 times each more powerful than the rest on Fiend Yuki controlling the after sock to it wouldn’t destroy the building, each of those hits could’ve kill Fiend Yuki with just the aftershock if he was awake but rewarded him with 10 shiny new messages for when he awoke.
Staring at the still asleep person in front of her Saeflywn stared at him bewilderedly then thinking to herself that she’s getting rusty, headed back into her study to train herself more.
Hours after she left with the occasional looks on him while Fiend Yuki was sleep, he awoke to those 10 shiny new messages hovering in his vision.

Bonuses Active

Smiling joyfully at his statues, he then looks at the amount of stacks for his ability ‘Smart Sleeper’ and noticed that it was way too high remembering that he was awake longer than 12 hours total since he woke up from his year long nap, eyes gleaming he figures this might be a bug he can exploit to get stronger when he’s awake so long as it’s under 12 hours.
Whistling to himself while he laid in bed still, only to suddenly remember why he even fell asleep in the first place. Calling up his ability Sleeping Houtian
Sleeping Houtian Cultivator

Seeing that it upgraded automatically while he slept Fiend Yuki smiled happily to himself about how easy it was. Yet sadly the requirements to upgrade it again costs 5 additional points not that he had to worry about it yet, still saddened him. Taking a glance around the room and not seeing anything he walks towards to common room, only to see a coldly glaring Saeflywn staring down deep into his soul, which instantly sent shivers down his spine.

Finally seeing that he was finally awake Saeflywn shouted at Fiend Yuki “FINALLY YOU’RE AWAKE DON’T TELL ME ALL YOU DO IS SLEEP!”
Scared of offending her because he knew he couldn’t put up a single fight against her, Fiend Yuki cowardly said “But but I did do stuff… I already did the Houtian training for blood…” to which drew a snort from Saeflywn who then raised her hand to which Fiend Yuki lost all control of his body near instantly appeared next to her, grabbing onto his wrist Saeflywn then looked back Fiend Yuki in shock once again.
Saying softly while gazing at Fiend Yuki, Saeflywn said to him “You really did…”
“YEAH I REALLY DID! AND YOU EVEN HIT ME WHILE I WAS ASLEEP!” Begrudgingly said Fiend Yuki remembering those messages… then remembering the word ‘Lethal’ he suddenly sobered up ready to put himself under before she does.
“That… I did” slowly spoke Saeflywn the continueing to say “It was for your own good, you’re not died now yet are you?”
Staring in horror at Saeflywn when she said ‘for your own good’ he gulped glad that nothing can happen to him while he’s asleep.
Remembering that she couldn’t hurt Fiend Yuki while he was alseep her eyes brighten then quickly struck Fiend Yuki in his chest which caused a sonic boom. Seeing the blow with was faster than his thought processes which only lasted until ‘OH SH-’ in his mind Fiend Yuki was struck seeing another message pop up.

Seeing those messages pop in front of his eyes Fiend Yuki was horror stricken, and not thinking anything else he fell asleep covered in his own bloody mess.
Eyes widening in horror at the bloody mess Fiend Yuki suddenly became from her strike, Saeflywn’s eyes mist up in grief for striking so suddenly at him, rushing over to his side to check whether he was still alive, seeing his intact body. Seeing his sunken chest with bones sticking out, and visible ruptured organs but miraculously still beating heart Saeflywn sighed in relief but still worried she quickly hurried to her the room with the table covered in tubes and strange drawing, quickly grabbing some bottles that were sealed she hurried over to Fiend Yuki pouring them on his body causing it to heal at a rate visible to the naked eye.
Grabbing another bottle that was sealed, and looking at it to the still healing Fiend Yuki, Saeflywn silently winced and resolved herself. Tearing off the seal on the bottle a pill floated out sending out multicolored rays of light and defusing an aroma of spring time, she slowly made hand signs and started to speak inaudibly gesturing towards Fiend Yuki causing the floating pill to slowly drift towards him, and slowly sink into his mouth and down his throat all the way into his daintain causing it to glow, and veins to start glowing a blinding white light.
Sighing in relief at the sight, Saeflywn wearily got up to her feet looking down to the almost fully healed Fiend Yuki that was still covered in his blood. Sighing to herself Saeflywn slightly blushed to herself as she stripped Fiend Yuki naked and looked at his delicate doll like body that she almost destroyed with that single strike, Saeflywn looked at his body in shame as she gently touched his body causing a watery substance to cover him, cleaning his body of the blood. Looking at his white skin that was almost see through, without the sightest blemish and glowing white from the medical effect of the pill as he quietly floated in the water bubble, Saeflywn stared in shock at him for he looked like innocence reincarnated with his silvery grey hair floating around him like a halo. Snapping herself out her trance Saeflywn blushed deeply causing nearly her whole face to turn a deep red, she waved her hand away causing the water away and gingerly placed Fiend Yuki back down onto his bed and covering him in a blanket, staring in worry at him as she slowly calmed her down Saeflywn closed her eyes sitting next to Fiend Yuki waiting for him to awaken.

After the End: Serenity
We all want to believe we are heroes of our own story - unless we want to be the villain, of course. At the end of everything, the Final Reaper decided he hadn’t been a hero. Driven by a desire to right the wrongs he was subjected to, he killed everyone who wronged him or his people - which turned out to be everyone that wasn’t killed by someone else first. He'd won - but it was a hollow victory. Eventually, Order’s Voice found a way out. If the only existing being would agree to give up most of his power, the Voice could reset the multiverse to an earlier time with a few minor changes. Of course, the Voice couldn't ask it that way. It could only ask if the Final Reaper was willing to start over from when Earth was first brought into Order. It was an easy decision, and yet it wasn’t. Was he willing to go through eons of pain again to not be alone? Yes. In a heartbeat. Not that his heart beat anymore. Now it would. Perhaps he could even be a hero, this time. When he landed in his old body - more or less - on Earth, the Final Reaper once again became Thomas. He was both and neither. He needed a new name for a new life. Serenity. ------------------------------------------ While this is technically a System Apocalypse story, it's a System Apocalypse that is designed to have a large percentage of the population survive and prosper. There are a lot of problems that come with the appearance of the Voice, and it's entirely possible to lose. Earth has some special opportunities, but also special challenges. The first time around, Earth won the first round and lost the second. Serenity has ten years from when the Voice arrives to prevent that from happening. It will be a group effort; Serenity can't win alone - which is difficult for someone who's been alone for as long as he has. Of course, that's only his second priority. ------------------------------------------- Updates Daily A note on the nonhuman lead tag: He isn't human, and hasn't been human for a very, very long time (or maybe not long at all, depending on how you count it). He still thinks of himself as human, either way. The content warnings are mostly to give me room to write; this fiction is not intended to be edgy, but once in a while a character will swear or someone will get seriously injured. The cover image is a Chandra/Hubble composite image of VV 340 / Arp 302 / UGC 9618. While we're not going to space itself any time soon in the story, people from elsewhere are coming to Earth and Serenity will visit other planets. Plus, I like space imagery.
