《Destiny Rewritten》Chapter 149

"What do you mean a demon is after our daughter?" Oliver asked angrily.
"Exactly that. I'm sorry, I know this isn't news new parents like to get." John said.
"That's an understatement." Laurel said.
"But fortunately, there is a bit of good news." John said.
"What do you mean?" Oliver demanded.
"We still have time to stop this demon before he can even make a move on Jasmine, since he's unable to reach her yet." John said.
"What do you mean?" Laurel asked.
"The soul of a newborn child is too pure and untainted for a demon to get anywhere. If this bloke tried to get anywhere close to Jasmine now, he'd disintegrate." John said.
"So what do we do?" Oliver asked.
"Well, luckily, I've already identified the demon's name. Mallus." John said and Oliver nearly did a double take.
"Mallus. You sure that's the demon's name?" Oliver asked.
"Positive. The only catch is that Mallus is not a normal demon. Even my magic is strong enough to kill him, even if he were on this plane of existence." John said.
"Meaning?" Laurel asked.
"The moment I learned that Mallus was after your little girl, I began doing everything I could to learn about the bastard and kill him." John said.
"And what did you learn?" Oliver asked.
"Centuries ago, Mallus was imprisoned by the original totem bearers of the 5 tribes of Zambezi." John said.
"Imprisoned where?" Oliver asked.
"Within time itself." John said.
"So he's still trapped right?" Laurel asked.
"Yes, but somehow, he's growing stronger. If he's able to successfully turn your daughter into his vessel, he will be free." John said.
"So we kill him before he gets the chance." Oliver said.

"How?" Laurel said.
"We already know where one of the totems of Zambezi is at this moment." Oliver said.
"Zari." Laurel said and Oliver nodded.
"Exactly. And we can use the Waverider to help us find the others." Oliver said.
"There's one more thing." John said.
"What is it?" Laurel asked.
"I learned that the reason the totem bearers failed to kill Mallus is because they were on short. A sixth tribe once existed and was erased from all records because they sided with Mallus and therefore, the totems weren't powerful enough to kill him." John said.
"So we find those missing totems, we can use them to kill Mallus before he has a chance to get to Jasmine." Oliver said.
"It's not that simple mate. Mallus is imprisoned." John said.
"So we let him out and kill him." Oliver said.
"You don't understand what you're saying." John said.
"I'm aware that it's risky to let a demon out it's cage, but it sounds like it's the only way to keep Jasmine safe and my duty is to my family first. To hell with everything else." Oliver said.
"I just want to make sure you're prepared to deal with those consequences." John said.
"John, wouldn't you do anything to save someone you care about, consequences be damned." Oliver asked.
"Of course I would. And I'm still suffering the consequences of what happened the last time I did that." John said.
"John, please." Oliver said.
"Alright Oliver. First, let's contact this Zari friend of yours. We'll go from there." John said and Oliver nodded his agreement.
"In the meantime, Jasmine should wear this at all times." Constantine said as he a small baby sized necklace from his coat pocket.

"What is it?" Laurel asked skeptically.
"A protective talisman. I know I said that her soul is safe for now, but there's no such thing as too much protection when it comes to demons." John said.
"On that we agree." Laurel said as she let Constantine place the necklace on Jasmine.
"Also, when she gets older, Jasmine's magical powers are going to start to develop. She'll more guidance than you can provide to help her learn how to control it." John said.
"Maybe you can." Oliver said.
"If I'm still kicking at that time, I'd be happy to, though considering my line of work, that's a pretty big if." John said.
"Tell me about it." Oliver said in agreement.
"Enough about that, for now, let's focus on saving our daughter." Laurel said.
"No one will ever hurt her. Man or demon." Oliver promised as he looked down at his sleeping daughter's face and knew that he'd literally go to hell and back to keep her safe. No matter what.

The Fate Eater
What might a man really do if he found himself reincarnated into a fantasy world as a dragon prince? How would he come to terms with his new nature, his larger-than-life family, the agendas of warring factions, and the destiny he never asked for? This is a story that intends to defy some isekai tropes, but play into others. It's mainly about exploring a rich hand-crafted world, full of its own history and mysteries. Its characters have their own lives and aspirations, and our protagonist is but a piece of the greater tapestry. This story is not about right and wrong, or good and evil. It's about a dragon-man being tested by fate, power, and time. It's about what it's like to live as an outsider who lost their home. But perhaps the most central theme is freedom. What does freedom really mean? What will it cost and how much might one be willing to pay for it? Does it even truly exist? Let's find out together.
