Author note: Sorry for the delay, I want to say that sometimes I will release a chapter a day late, I will need some time to think about the story and characters.
Chapter 5 - Decision -
I’m surrounded by a sea of flames, the heat is burning my flesh but i don’t feel any pain. I stand on top of a mountain of corpses, crying, not because the pain but because i lost everything, a sea of corpses under a sea of flames are the only things i can see, and I, the last one standing, I won the war, just me won the war, even though there were so many countries and millions of soldiers, only I am alive. So many died and what for? No one know why this war started, but no one tried to stop it. I was the only one who fought to stop it, alone, but my power was not enough, because my power was not enough now I am the last one alive. I felt on my back, I don’t have any more strength and I don’t have a reason to live, I let the flames to devour my body, bringing my life to an end. If I were to be reborn, I want to remember this fight so in my next life I won’t lose anything anymore, I will protect the ones I love creating a world where I am the ruler, destroying everything on my way. I will start a war to create a world for the ones I love.
[Very well, I will grant your wish.]

[...ke.. .p..]
I could hear something.
[H.. wa..e up..]
Someone is speaking to me.
[Evil, wake up!]
I opened my eyes and I found Nele and Nari looking at me with tears in their eyes.

[Hey, good morning.]
I said smiling briefly.
[WHAT GOOD MORNING! W-When we waked up you were sweating and screaming in pain, but no meter how much we tried to wake you up you just wouldn’t open your eyes!]
[What happened? Did you have a nightmare?]
Nightmare? I think i had one, but i can’t remember.
[I think so, I can’t remember but I have the feeling I had a nightmare.]
Yes, I had a nightmare, a painful one, but i can’t remember.
[We were so worried *sob* we *sob* didn’t know what to do *sob*.]
Nari started to cry, we were together for a short time but they are crying for me. I think I have underestimated those girls.
[Sorry, I’m fine now, I just had a nightmare.]
I have the feeling that I need to remember that dream, but no meter how much i tried, i can’t. If it’s important I’m sure I’ll remember, maybe.
After hearing my words they calmed a bit, and after a bit we packed our stuff and resumed our journey. This time the girls grabbed my hand with more strength than before.

After a hour we were stopped by a heartquake, the movement of the earth and the rhythm of the sound coming from not too far away was strangely familiar.
I knew what this sound was, it was the sound of an army approaching. Nele and Nari looked at me as if asking what to do, but I kept on walking not minding the approaching danger. This was an unexpected fortune.
[Whatever will happen don’t leave my side, grab my arms and don’t let go.]
The girls did as I said not understanding my intentions. I decided to protect those girls, and to do that this was the first, necessary step.

After a while the army appeared at a hundred of meters in front of us, as i thought it was an army of humans. I kept on walking.
As there were no more than ten meters between us, a man riding a horse, probably their captain, raises his hand while saying something at his soldiers, then dropped it. Tens of arrows were shot, at the same moment, flying toward us tearing the air. I kept on walking, the arrows broke as if they hit a wall made of iron, I used only one blade to broke them all, instantly, for them should have looked as if the arrow hit an invisible wall because the blade was to fast for them to see. Then an idea hit me, I grabbed Nele and Nari with my hands and lifted them, then kicking the ground I shooted myself forward, causing an explosion in the place I was a moment ago, leaving afterimages behind me I kept on kicking the ground, increasing my speed. It was a one sided massacre, the soldiers marched in a straight line on the road. With two blades in a “>” shape to move the soldiers out of my way, then I extended a blade on my left and one on my right in a straight line, covering a twenty meters area, then using the momentum of my speed I sliced through every soldier in my way. Kicking the ground I launched myself faster than an arrow, the soldiers couldn’t even react. Their armours were meaningless, my blades were too sharp for them, everything on their way was cut in half, there was a mage with a magic shield around him but when my blade touched the shield it disappeared, then I understood, my blades ignores every defense, they are a weapon who cut through anything.
It took me 2 minutes, in 2 minutes I covered a distance of 5 kilometers killing almost all the soldiers, I could have gone faster but that will have harmed the girls.
I let the girls go, they were not scared nor pained for the death of so many lives. They just looked at me with a smile and then grabbed my hands. They are becoming stronger.
I didn’t killed every soldier, I left alive some of them so they could tell others what happened today. This was only the start, the humans will start to fear me while their enemies will become my allies. Finally I understood what I want to do.
But first, we need more power and allies, not just me, I have to train Nele and Nari too. I want to make this world mine, and to do that, I need to destroy their current ruler, the humans.

Iferes: Slaves Of The Gods
Iferes are creatures that roam the world. They are everywhere, and anywhere. From the deepest seas, to the highest mountains. From the heart of volcanos, to the never melting glaciers. Some are weak, some are strong. Some are calm, some are bloodthirsty. What they all have in common, is that they fight for survival. For hundreds of thousands of eras, humans and Iferes lived in a world of war and blood. Ifere against Ifere, Ifere against humans, and humans against humans. But one day, in a very distant past, the twelve Mystic Iferes, and the twelve greatest kings of humanity, joined hands to end that cruel era. Together, they created a contract. A contract that, once made, would bound the two parties, and could only be broken in death. Millions of years went by, and that period of war faded in legends. And a child was born, a child that would change everything. For bad or worse, only time would say. ----------------------------- Hello, everyone! Just a few warnings before you read the novel, so you won't be disappointed. First of all, as you can probably tell, I took more than a few ideas from pokemon and the like. It's almost impossible to write a novel where creatures (Iferes) have a major part in, and not relate it to pokemon. However, as you will see as the novel goes on, I tried (and I think I succeeded) in making a universe of my own. I am sure you will like it. Secondly, compared to pokemon, my novel is a lot darker, as you probably noticed by the synopsis. I also try to give a wild west vibe to it, if you know what I mean. Thirdly, you should check out my fanfic Broke: A Clone Wars Tale. Biased as I am towards it, I think it's a great story, and so do many of my readers. It will also give you a glance at what writing style to expect. Fourth and last, I feel like it's only fair that I tell you I am a student. As much as I love writing, my main priority will always be my studies. After all, writing is just a hobby for me, at least for now (fingers crossed). As such, there probably will be interruptions in the release schedule here and there, but, if you followed me on my other novel, you will know I rarely missed an upload, and, when I did, I always made up for it. So, with all that said, I hope you can give the novel a try, and leave a review. If you are a new reader, I hope we can have a lot of fun along the way. If you read Broke, then we already made a journey together, and I hope you will follow me on a new one. Also, you should check out my patreon, there you can get chapters in advance (although they will all be published normally after a while), and a few other benefits. I appreciate every bit of support you can give me! patreon.com/reis123 PS: there will be romance, but no harem or reincarnation. The MC is just someone who was born and raised on this world.

8 134Vampire Reborn
In a polluted world where humans ruined the planet, Ren Silver, a man who had been on the bottom his entire life climbed up the social ladder and followed his dreams no matter who put him down. After putting his soul, blood, sweat, and tears, his path led him to greatness, becoming the number 1 streamer and VR gamer in the world. His life took a major turn. And, after receiving early access to THE major game-changing update by the developers, things were looking up for him even more. What awaited him was something truly special that no man would have dreamed of... One much darker than he would have ever expected... [ Greetings Ren Silver… You have proven yourself worthy without a shadow of a doubt… Welcome to your NEW REALITY... ] *****************************IMPORTANT AUTHOR NOTE! This post was made by #NoHaremGang! Although the synopsis and the first few chapters make it sound like one, THIS IS NOT A VRMMO NOVEL. This is a proper Isekai! This will be a MALE LEAD novel, despite the cover. There will be romance however later down the line, and the person in the cover will be the main love interest! The Novel's MC will not be a very moral guy. He is not a hero! He will value logic and reasoning over most of his decisions and values his own survival! There will be some romance later on but probably not a lot of it! The first few chapters are slow and set up the world so don't let that deter you, because the action is not too far from there! I hope you guys enjoy the novel! There will also be original art on specific chapters! So keep an eye out for those! ;) *****************************
