《One Versus Destiny》Chapter 121: The Floodgates Have Opened
Advertisement
The bronze-category was almost instantly killed by a flash of a jade-category's aura.
Everything was still for a moment.
Then all hell broke loose.
If it were like that old saying about the floodgates opening and a dam let loose, this was that, but the floodgates were holding back an ocean, not a dam.
Death, the leader of the opposing side, was fighting a giant phoenix. The same one as the one that had given ash in the preparations, I realized. They went into the Undiluted Cosmic.
I turned my attention to more worldly matters. It was still 3:00 AM, yet the activity was that of a contested planet at noon. I saw millions of gory messes already. I couldn't imagine the casualty count caused by this. The final toll was likely to be higher then Earth's integration. I knew a lot of those messes were evil, yet they were still humans.
My team and Team R54 were still all alive, yet Agent 57, my neighbor, was nowhere to be seen. It was surprising that someone from my area of the city was already dead.
Wopoimcl was fighting the man who first came out of the army. They were also behemoths, to the point that other jade-categories stayed away. I wasn't focusing on my fight with a middle diamond-category much, as he was about as strong as a peak silver-category due to my aura. I just took out Everlasting Durability and swung, which instantly killed the diamond-category. My archetype allowed me to penetrate deep into the ranks. I then reached a cosmic craft.
I teleported in. It wasn't abandoned, but the inhabitants were sleeping. I teleported into the ceiling.
I saw a core. I hit it with Everlasting Durability, and it cracked. That should have been enough to ground the craft.

I teleported into another craft. I repeated the process. I did that for four hundred fifty-two crafts. On the next one, the core breaking woke the inhabitants up.
"Die."
I hastily teleported out, masking myself as a true sapphire-category. I masked myself as a bottom-middle sapphire-category. The one I had easily killed was just bottom sapphire-category. The ruby-categories in there couldn't find me.
I then killed a few more sapphire-categories, then destroyed a hoard of silver-category cannon fodder. I summoned a rainbow cannon at the last one, and literally launched the cannon fodder from a cannon. It was something I had wanted to do since I was fourteen.
The cannon fodder flew up, dead, then landed on a cosmic craft. The corpse collapsed the mast and destroyed the core.
The inhabitants swarmed out, clearly unhappy that a corpse of a cannon fodder destroyed the core.
As soon as they got out of bed, a swarm of wasps named Abjwe started stinging their ankles, to the point that they collapsed. Abjwe started stinging their faces, which was their end. Abjwe then flew away to sting bronze-category cannon fodder to death.
A healer passed by the cosmic craft. "Killed by wasp stings. the wasps look like sapphire-categories. Sad, they were promising diamond-categories. Could be The Prophecy End."
I dropped down onto the healer's face, instantly breaking her neck. I just had to smash her head to turn her into a puddle of gore.
I teleported onto the wall. The wall people rushed to me. "I'm a mage, I just came up here to cast spells. You know those cosmic craft cores that broke? That was me. But now, some topaz-category is hunting me, so I'll stay here for a bit."
That was a good enough explanation. "Bleed to death, bloodless one. You will die. Rot away, dead body. Sweet sleep of death, step forth."

I spammed spells at a rate of ten a second. I targeted random enemies trying to kill them. Within an hour, I had racked up 425,634 kills. And that didn't include my kills at a melee range. If those were included, I'd be at 576,584 kills.
I expected the casualties had passed a billion by now. The sky was stained blood red. I had 912,445 war contribution points, which I could use to buy things after the war. Most of the cannon fodder from both sides were gone.
I teleported back to melee range, popping a coin in my mouth.

Crimson Gloom
Crimson Gloom. The time when the moon turns crimson, illuminating the landscape with its crimson glow. The time when the ‘doors’ to the Crimson Abyss open. One shall gaze into the abyss and gain its secrets and powers. Concurrently, the abyss also gazes into oneself, gaining one’s sanity and humanity. Dimensional rifts appeared spontaneously on Earth, bringing otherworldly demons along with the Crimson Gloom. Bloody battles were fought, noble sacrifices were made. Humans eventually sealed the rifts and successfully defended their homeworld. Alas, the seals were not perfect. The Crimson Abyss continued to exist, slowly influencing Earth and its inhabitants. Half a century of relatively uneventful years passed… humanity slowly descended into corruption, and the majority of them knew nothing of the effects of the Crimson Abyss. Is there only the dreadful gloom left to the world? Can one find brightness in the increasingly gloomy world? The youth who had gazed into the Crimson Abyss had no answer, nor did he care. He only wanted the Crimson Gloom to end, to forever seal the Crimson Abyss. A mistake and a twist of fate led the youth into a seemingly totally different direction. Will he forget his lifelong goal? Will he instead step back onto his initial path that he fervently pursued? Disclaimer: I do not own the image on the cover. Image edited on canva.com. This piece of work, after all, is only a first draft and by no means an end product by an amateur (beginner) writer. Mistakes are bound to happen. With that said, I will strive to improve as I write. Feel free to point out errors and inconsistencies as you read. I thank you for your time. Finally, I pledge to not rewrite this novel until the first draft is completed.

The Systems of the Multiverse - A Guide for the Multiversal Traveler
The Systems of the Multiverse have their issues. I, an observer from outside the multiverse have made it into my mission to tell you, the multiversal traveler about those issues and dangers. This is a relatively low effort NaNoWriMo and Writhathon project. I want to test myself if I can manage 55k words in a month, likely updating every single day until the end. This story is told in the form of an in universe book. Well, I say story... While this definetly won't be great, I still hope it will be enjoyable. I do my best to avoid grammar mistakes and spelling issues, but won't promise anything. Corrections are welcome, this is also an excercise to improve my writing from a technical standpoint. Not from a worldbuilding and character standpoint however, for that you need time. Oh, the keyboards (and computers) that the observer destroys are not real and only exists in story to have an excuse to easily end this story at the end of NaNoWriMo. I also personally like reading LitRPG stories, so this isn't meant to hate them. It might come over that way, but many of those issues are simply fun to think about: what would really happen if the world is so, seen through a lease of negativity :-) [participant in the Royal Road Writathon challenge]
