《Perseus Jackson: A New Order》I Encounter the Mysterious Guy
Advertisement
"Your turn," Erebus said, yawning and rubbing his eyes. Recently, all the children of the Mansion of Night along with Erebus, Nyx and Tartarus have been going to the edge of Night and keeping an eye on the Void.
I groaned and proceeded to sit at the edge of the cliff and let my legs dangle into the Void. I closed my eyes and reached out my senses to try and sense anything in the Void. It was somewhat like a sixth sense or a feeling you get. Somewhat like when you feel like someone is looking at you or there's someone or something you know is there but hasn't been spotted yet. There were plenty of energy signatures down in the Void but they were all weak or extremely far away.
I continued to sit there and reach out my senses, until I was interrupted by the sound of foot steps. The creepiest thing, was that it was from in front of me. I opened my eyes to see a hooded figure walking towards me with a sword in his hand. The only part visible about him was his mouth. He was walking above the endless abyss as if on top of an invisible platform.
He smirked at me, "You must be the Primordial of Order."
I nodded wearily and created a sword out of the darkness around me. "Fancy sword you got there," he said, gesturing to the sword in my hand.
It was made out of Stygian Iron with a grip made out of shadows. It was perfectly balanced for me as the shadows shifted around the sword, keeping it perfect for whichever move I wanted to perform.
"Who are you?" I asked, politely. To that, he just shrugged. "My identity doesn't matter. It was long forgotten and will hopefully remain so."

I frowned at that. "No one deserves to be forgotten and if they were, they would fade into the Void," I said gesturing to the nothingness behind him.
"And who cares if I do?" He grunted.
"You're bitter," I pointed out. "You lost something, maybe everything. Care to enlighten me?" I asked innocently.
He scoffed and sat down next to me. "No one cares and if they do, they're stupid."
"I've been called stupid before," I chuckled.
He squinted at me for a few seconds before nodding towards me and disappearing for sight. "Perhaps an other time", the voice resonated from the Void.
Now I was even more puzzled. I was snapped out of my thoughts by a flash of light and Aether appearing in front of me. "My turn", he said, bored. I pondered on whether or not to tell him about my encounter with the mysterious being. I shrugged, why not?
"I met him," I said to Aether. "Who?" The 'bright' Primordial asked.
"The dude," I said, emphasizing on the word.
He looked at me with eyes as wide as the sun of the Earth's solar system, before looking at me accusingly. "Why didn't you alert us?" He barked. "What if he Primordialnapped you?" I looked at him questioningly.
Primordialnapped? What was that supposed to mean?
He recognised my look of confusion and replied, "Primordialnapped as in kidnapped but with a Primordial."
I mentally face-palmed. "No Aether, he seemed peaceful to me, he was just bitter and sad for a reason he did not disclose to me. He wasn't really afraid of fading or disappearing from existence either."
I then transferred the memory of my meeting with him to Aether, so that he could show the others. He nodded, "Well if that's case and he's peaceful, we need not keep an eye on him."

Aether was just about to flash away when a sudden thought occured to me. "Wait, if he was able to come to Night, doesn't it mean that he was able to cross the wall of the Primordials and enter into this part of the Void?"
He nodded slowly and replied. "Yes that is possible but now when I come to think of it, I don't even know if he's the same guy."
I shook my head and replied, "No Aether, when I looked at him, it was the same energy signature as last time."
"Whatever it is," he said, "we need to tell the others about this." I nodded and the two of us teleported to our Throne room.
When we got there, Aether sent out a bright beam of light from his eyes that struck the empty space above us. After a few moments, the Primordials all appeared along with their thrones.
"I spoke to the guy," I said. Aether then replayed the memory on a sort of screen similar to an Iris Message.
"Why couldn't he come out when I was keeping watch?" Erebus complained. The Primordials all rolled their eyes at that.
"He doesn't seem to be threat so I suggest we do not interfere in whatever he is doing," Pontus suggested. "I agree," Hypnos said while yawning as usual. The rest of us nodded in agreement.
"If he does approach any of us, we'll converse with him on peaceful terms," Chaos said.
"Can I kill him if he threatens us?" Nyx asked eagerly.
Tartarus was about to say something but Gaia interjected. "We'll decide when the time is right," she said. "For now, we'll go on with our usual business."
Everyone nodded at that and we were about to teleport away but soon stopped when we felt his energy signature once again.
A figure started to form out of thin air and looked similar to the figure I met earlier this day, only more solid. Tartarus, Chronos and a few other Primordials grabbed their weapons and kept them at the ready.
He took of his hood and a few of the older Primordials gasped.

8 162The Demon Lord who wished to be a Hero
This is the story of a person who in his life born and raised to be scary and dangerous. Being born from a Yakuza/Mafia family, his face and physique showed signs that you would expect from someone in that line of work. The funny part is, he doesn't like his family line of work and is actually a nice person, yet everyone is afraid of him except a few. However their was a strange occurrence of a "Game Pod" being sent out for game newly released for random people. The only thing people know is that is a post to be an VR RPGMMO. Which our Main character gets as well as his "Friends". He plans to become a Hero in the game however, he becomes the Opposite of what he wishes to be, and the game isnt actually a game (Hello! This is my first story Ive ever written and will post on Royalroad! I hope you will enjoy it and I really appreciate constructive criticism! I will probably edit the synopsis In a later date and if you have any ideas for it I would really appreciate it. And on one more note sorry for my spelling and grammar, sorry if you see any mistakes and point them out for me, please *Bows* Oh! I keep forgetting things! XD This story will have elements of other stories I have read, an example is RE:Monster and its ability to allow monsters to evolve at a certain threshold of levels. [ 15+ (Maybe even higher...) Strong Language, Blood/Gore, Sexual innuendos or content] ) [Found the Pic on Google images, not owned by me]

Will you be willing to shoulder the burdens of this world, even if you lost all? Will you be able to continue grinding, fighting and pushing. Even if those you are fighting for, don't appreciate it?

In life, action and reaction are equal and opposite. And for every decision we make there are either blessings or consequences. Will Nigo choose to shoulder this burden? Join nigo on this journey filled with tears, pain, loss and betrayal. As he makes his decisions and face the aftermath of his choices.

8 151Game of the Mad God
Jason Delacroix is many things. A sarcastic bastard. A gambler(who might be just a little TOO good, if you catch the meaning). But mostly, he was an anime freak, with traces of chuunibyou(. He spent his days simply, watching huge amounts of anime by day, gambling to pay for his habits by night. This was his routine, until one night something claiming to be a god wrenched him from his world...*warning(because apparently the mature tag just isn't enough)* This story will contain violent, sometimes graphic scenes. people will be eaten. you've been warned
