《I Am the "God of Death", Whatever That Means. (Original)》I'll show what Death Incarnate looks like. Chapter 5.
Advertisement
The ground shaking roar of Vert forces the 12 remaining people alive to completely cover their ears and wince in pain. Something about Vert's shout was abnormal to them as it was amplified several times louder than it should've been.
Zanack finally regains himself and brushes his long blonde hair covering his eyes to the side, finally getting a good look at the monster before him. Vert is intimidatingly tall being 6'5 (a little over 195cm for you Metric System readers) and his body is slim yet his ripped and the tone muscles on his body say that he is not to be underestimated in a brawl in strength.
Zanack grinds his teeth back and forth with extreme force as his final obstacle in standing in front of him yet he doesn't feel excited, or is full of anticipation, all Zanack can feel is a deep numbness and fear. Zanack can hear the shaking of armor of his comrades and it brings Zanack to his senses.
The numbness fades away and calmness flushes over Zanack. Zanack has a goal that he must accomplish and he knows that his comrades are commendable and capable, so there is nothing to worry about... Right?
"God of Death! You have been a thorn in my kingdom for a long time, but here and now, you time is coming to an end!" Zanack yells with a hoarse voice but there is a small hint in confidence in it.
Vert chuckles and glares at Zanack with an eyebrow raised. After a thorough examination, Vert shrugs his shoulder.
"Alright, try me, but I'll keep my promise. Your death will be painless, for the most part.... Pump the Beat."
A shockwave of power is emitted from Vert's body and blows wind in every direction in the dark and damp cave. The human heroes and their king is forced to shield their eyes or they will risk debris ruining their eyesight forever.
A strange sound follows the shockwaves yet no one really understands or knows what it is. It is a song called Pump the Beat that boasts hard beats that matches Vert's hard hits in fights. This song was of course to stave Vert's boredom as he fights these weaklings.

As the unusual and shrill sounding beats play, Vert begins his onslaught by aiming for the guy directly in the back.
WHOOOOSHH~!
Using his insane speed, Vert rushes towards the wall to the right of the Human's and runs up it, not losing his speed on the way. Moving from 0 to a speed the untrained eye cannot speed caused a loud sound to boom throughout the cave system and more wind to pulsate as if the cave was breathing heavily.
With Vert running up the wall, he then proceeds to the ceiling and makes it above the hero directly in the back. They have still yet to realize what has happened and Vert smiles. Flexing his legs and jumping with the power of a God, Vert sends himself towards the ground and he rears back his hand.
Having gauntlets that produce his songs, Vert values them highly yet he fights with them as they seem to be made of a material harder and sharper than anything Vert has faced so far. This is why he uses them to fight, plus the fact that they have sharp claws that are perfect for shredding apart anything with flesh.
A whistling sound is followed by another large boom and blood exploding all over the cave walls. The ground shatters under the force of Vert's fist as he smashes the man's body into a pulp without the other's realizing it yet. The heroes and their king finally turn around as the hard hitting music continues to pulse from Vert's gauntlets. His smile is maniacal and they can't help but shiver and cower in front of the god.
"He... He must be within the top 10 strongest Gods in the world! Maybe... maybe even higher than that!" King Zanack manages to choke out. He doesn't know what to do, this isn't something you can just fight and not end up with mostly every dead or severely injured. In fact, no one will even approach the God now due to his show of power. Except for one person.
"You... YOU KILLED MY SISTER AND HER CHILD! DIE GOD OF DEATH!" The woman's body glows a beautfiul hue of blue and water swirls around her savagely. A small water dragon forms and roars at the God as he simply sighes at the woman.

"God of Death this, God of Death that. Is that what your kind calls me?"
Vert chuckles for a second and nods his head, finally connecting the dots together and the music turns up louder, drowning out the roaring of the water dragon.
"If that's what you believe I am... Then I'll show you what death incarnate is really like."
Flashing out of their sight once more, Vert continues the one sided massacre as the beat drops and so doesn't the womans head. Vert is now in the middle of the 10 heroes and their king and the fear controlling their body has finally faded away. They now realize it is either die fighting or be murdered like chickens.
Each hero prepares their own magic and beautiful lights of all kinds of colors shine throughout the whole cave. The waves of mana crashing against each other as Vert's raw power overwhelms all of his enemies. Emeralda becomes excited as she watches from behind the door with her head peaking around the corner.
She is amazed by the variations of the top tier magics that the humans can muster but it is a shame as it is being consumed by Vert's magic that is an unknown anomaly to everyone who sees it.
With incantations being thrown through the air and many magic circles coming into fruition around Vert trying to bind him, Vert simply shakes his head at the futile resistance and raises his hand in the air. He smiles as the final bass drop is building up and is willing to take attacks of the ants around him until the perfect timinig.
Finally the time has come and Vert smiles and says 3 powerful words. "Pump the Beat."
With a snap of his finger at the end of the word "Beat", he snaps his fingers. An explosion of Death Magic flows outwards from Vert in the form of a wave of darkness. He had never been good at holding back his power so all the heroes around him are disentigrated as the black waves of Death Magic flows over their bodies. Not even their souls survive as they too are engulfed in the waves and wiped out of exisistence.
As the Death Magic subsides and calms down, Vert has a big toothy smile as he is finally free of the boring room and can now roam the world... or so he thought.
A force stronger than Vert in every aspect pulls him back into the room as a horrified look is spread across his face.
"You bastards! YOU BASTARDS LET ME GO!" Vert yells as he claws at the floor to stop himself but to no avail. Finally the invisible force throws Vert back into his stone room and the door made of bones slams shut.
Vert is fuming with rage at this point and yells out loudly in anger.
"DAMN YOU! I'LL KILL YOU!"
Vert's breathing is heavy and his chest is heaving up and down as he is trying to calm his rage. Finally he takes a deep breath and the anger inside of him fades away. He then chuckles and looks up to the ceiling of the cave.
"Looks like I'm not truly a god as there is definitely a power above me... well atleast I still have my music and Emeralda."
Vert then smiles as he looks around the room for his one and only friend in the world right now... yet he can't find her.
"Huh?"
Vert tilts his head as another orb of light falls from the sky and into his hands. He cracks open the orb and his cold heart sinks to the bottom of his chest.
"Congrats God of Death! You have completed the Advanced Achievement only special to you! This achievement was 'Kill someone important to you'! The reward for this is the return of 10% of your powers! - Council of Gods"
As the information drills itself inside of his head, Vert is not bothered by it and turns towards the door where Emeralda was standing. Next to the door is a black pile of ash that reeks of Death Magic.

Toothpick
“Hello! My humble audience! I, the Bard of the North, am going to tell you a tale. Nothing new, nothing old. A story of a hero, some may say, others a poor boy who was hated by the world.” The storyteller paused as he waited, right timing was everything when telling a story. Pacing… Too slow and the audience became bored then left without tossing even the smallest of coins. If he spoke too fast and rushed the story. It would leave the audience confused and having no reason to be impressed. So like any good storyteller, the Bard has to do a balancing act of sorts. Not too slow, not too fast. Just perfectly in the middle. “In a shattered country in the south, a novice princeling has the ambition to mend a torn tapestry that is his birthplace. Struggling to fend off those who would usurp the throne in an unending civil war spanning centuries. A mercenary that left only death in his wake, unable to stave off the monotony and peace of life. He looks back at the path laden with bodies, wondering if it was all worth it. Wandering souls summoned by a madman, travel away from a wasteland in a foreign land, the first alone, the others as companions. A deity, ancient in her years, waiting to be freed from a duty she no longer enjoys. For all these people and their stories, none are the hero of this tale. No, the hero is not grand, not wise, not ready.. he was punished for nothing of his doing, who was an outcast that was unloved by many, including his father.” This was always the big reveal novices use to jump off into their story. He did not start here, instead, like any good fishermen, he set the bait and waited until the fish bit before pulling. As he saw the audience's eyes focus, he then started the backstory. The harness, that stopped the listeners from having metaphorical whiplash. The foreshadowing. “But that is not where the story starts. No, not even the hero's birth. Where the story begins, is the boredom of the deity, a deity many know of. She who hunts for the impossible, the guide for those who have lost the path, the Huntress of Mallon--” A small pause, a short breath. “--All old names for a single powerful being that has roamed the grounds of this continent longer than any line of kings or queens, lords or ladies. A being of worship for many an individual…” One last breath. And he began singing the first verse.
