Seeriously pissed off... i had so much fucking more than this. I guessed i accidentally pressed a button or did something while typing and it took me to chatwing and i wasnt able to go backwards and get my data back..but anyway here you go
I don't know how many hours i screamed in agony. I thought getting all my limbs chopped off was hard, but this pain is something else. I have no idea how to describe it. I felt my cells getting changed to the atomic level. My body, filled with holy energy, is now being corrupted and mixing with the darkness that was flowing inside me. Did i mention that the river was the darkness? Yea, i couldn't believe it either. Right when i was about to die, i felt the river water pour into my body. My lungs, which were full of water, suddenly cleared. But then even more water went into me. Every single hole in my body-Which wasn't much, considering i had no limbs and missing both my ears and an eye- Was being filled with dark water. Even as the water was pouring into me, i felt my limbs regrowing, my cells changing, merging with my holy powers. But the agony was unbearable. I have no doubt in my mind that if i had my limbs back, i wouldn't have been able to take the pain of having them all get soaked with the water.
So as i laid there, sinking even deeper into the water, which was getting lower and lower as my body was absorbing it, i felt a change in my powers. I noticed it immediately. My powers were gone. Im ashamed to say that the first thing i wanted to do was cry. I thought that the spirit tricked me. But i soon noticed something began to grow in my mana well. It wasnt much, and you'd most likely only notice it if you were concentrating hard, which i was, since my whole future was relying on this. It was a small purple and black seed. It was small a first, but as more and more ravine water went into me, it began to grow. And by grow, by god do i mean grow. It was increasing at an exponential rate.By now, all the water in the ravine-Which was alot- was almost gone. My limbs were almost completely back, but my feet and hand still had to regrow. Suddenly i felt my mana well become full, but that didnt stop it from growing. I take it back. I thought having ravine water pour into your very being hurt. This was like comparing a Lighter burn to a 3rd degree burn. The purple and black power was forcibly expanding my mana well. I didnt think this was possible, as i ad heard that if your mana well is too full your body starts to disintegrate (I dont know how to say this. Think of your skin and muscle flaking off your body) I had to say, even though through all that pain i was screaming with my very being, i felt a sadistic pleasure at the same time. I thought to myself"This is it. This is what i have to do to become stronger and take my revenge." My limbs had completely regrown, even my internal injuries were fine. The giant ravine, Which was at least 80 feet deep, filled with water, was now completely inside me. I stood up, looking up at platform( I cant think of how to describe this. Think of a rock walkway(like a catwalk) That leads to a circular platform. Now beneath that platform imagine a mountain(Pointy at the top, and gets larger the farther it goes down) that's what it looked like) Amazingly, that platform actually withheld the massive amount of magic that went into our fight. Just thinking about it makes me boil with anger. My mana well was still growing, and this, coupled with the fact that my limbs felt raw, was enough to make me pass out.
When i awoke, i tried to get up too quickly, and as a result i ended up falling down again.
"Patience" a voice said, making me jump. I turned around to see the most beautiful, jaw dropping girl i have ever seen. Even the gods would pale in comparison (Yes i know, that was a reaaaaally shitty quote :3) But thats not the thing that made her stood out. Looking at her eyes, you would feel as if she single-handedly made the universe herself. Her Mere presence brought me to my knees.
"Who... are.. you" i asked in a strangled voice. Even breathing was hard.
"I am Khali, the goddess of Chaos" she said, and then waved her hand, making the crushing pressure disappear completely.
Now that i wasnt straining my body just to look at her, i noticed how beautiful she really was. She had long black hair that was dyed with streaks of purple, kind of like my own growing mana well. Except it was waaaay more beautiful than mine, in a sort of dark and twisted way. (Yes i just called mana beautiful. deal wit it :P) Her slender legs went in perfect comparison with her hourglass figure. Her Chest, which i would judge at about a C cup, was bulging out of the black dress she was wearing. Why is a once noble knight like me able to judge a girls chest at a glance? Simple. During my youth i visited many....establishment's for releasing stress. I was quite the looker as a youth. Still am, though i dont know what i look like now that i've been...changed. Before my change i had long golden hair for a male, i went down just a little past my shoulders. I stood at about 6'3, making me tall but not the tallest for a human. But the one thing that i can and will brag about is my body. Everyday i trained extensively, making my body look like it was chiseled out of marble. I even had a side pack(This... think of small pentagons of muscle from the middle of the ribs and up right beneath the pecs. I think hanma baki had these, and im pretty sure thats were i remembered it from)
"Chaos?" i asked, finally getting over my confusion at seeing her. "You mean darkness right?"
"No child. I mean chaos. I am the Very Carnation of chaos itself"
"So...your a god?" i ask, giving her a dark look
"More like a Primordal power....but all the same aspects, only im a gazillion times stronger than any god out there"
"So.... chaos. Arent darkness and chaos the same?"
"No" she says with a stern look in her eye. Clearly this isnt the first time shes had this conversation. "Darkness has a goal. No matter how "Evil"someone is, they have a goal to accomplish. Chaos is different. It has no goal, only seeking to destroy anything and everything" she says, with a dark glint in her ancient eyes.
I shuddered, thinking of the power in her eyes with a mere glint. "If chaos and darkness aren't the same then... why have i never heard of it? Furthermore, why are you here?"
"The reason you have never heard of it curious one is because it is a power long forgotten. Mankind, through the influence of god, has forgotten how to wield the power of chaos. And as for the answer to my second question, look inside you and you shall see."
I assumed she meant to look at my mana well, and so i did. What i saw shocked me beyond words. Seriously, not the best thing to do when your in front of a beautiful lady. "How is this possible" i mumbled to myself. What did i see you ask? Well...My well was....Gone? It was like i couldnt see it, yet i could. And in the moments i could, i could easily tell that my mana pool was at least 5 times larger than my previous one. And it was a purpleish black mix, swirling around in my well.
"Do you like the power?" she asked, clearly she already knew my answer, but nevertheless i still nodded, too dumbfounded for words. "Your mana pool, is extremely large. I doubt even any of the elder gods has a mana pool as big as yours." Once again, i looked at her with a shocked expression. Suddenly, she laughs and points at me. Which, by the way, was extremely cute. "Your drooling." I quickly wipe my mouth in embarrassment. "Sorry" i mutter.
"Anyways, even though your mana pool is massive, that doesnt mean your strong." At this i smile, and decided to play along. "So...the man who inflicted the most damage on the demon lord, fought him in unarmed and single combat, is weak? I agree, not strong at all." I say this all while putting on a cocky smile.
Suddenly i see her rush at me with incredible speed. The second she ran, i heard a loud high pitched noise. I put my arms up, knowing that i wont be able to block her. She stops right in front of me, clearly shocked. After a few moments i break the silence "...what?" i ask.
"You...how did you follow me?" (She means follow her movements")
The genuine version of this novel can be found on another site. Support the author by reading it there.
"You werent running that fast..."
"AHAHAHAHAHAHAHA" she laughs, clearly elated for some unknown reason.
"I just ran above the speed of sound mortal"
i Looked at her like she was crazy." I know for a fact" i started, "that if you ran at the speed of sound, there is know way i would have been able to follow you"
She then smiles. "I see.... the water must have changed you down to the molecular level"
"Well duh!! That shit hurt. My Whole body is sore. And what was that water anyways?
"That mortal"she says," Was water that i charged with the power of some of the darkest creatures i could find. Monsters that give your nightmares nightmares"
I gave her a dumb look. "AND I FUCKING ABSORBED THAT SHIT!?!?!?"
"Yes" she simply says
"Fuck..."i say
"But be glad mortal, for you are the first being in an extremely long time to be able to wield the power of chaos"
I look at her wondering what she meant. "I dont wield the power of chaos..im a paladin..or i was, till the gods stopped giving accepting my faith" (paladins strenght depends on their faith. The more you believe in your god, the stronger you will be)
"Tell me human, after absorbing that much demon energy, do you truly think that your still a paladin? Your Body, which has been absorbing Light energy, or "Faith" at a molecular level. Such was the level of your devotence to your god. But now, your cells, which were stock full of holy energy, were invaded by the darkness. Your body had no way of releasing this power, so it decided to fuse them. Thats why you were in such pain"
"That's interesting and all but what does that have to do with my strength? You told me that i wasnt as strong as before even though my mana pool was 5 times larger than before"
"See, the thing with chaos is...you cant use normal mage spells with it. All those spells you've learned, even simple ones like fireball, wind blade, mana slash(Mana sword slashh. You should know what this means) and healing spells cant be used.
I looked at her with my mouth open. Shock quickly became fury. i shouted" THEN WHY THE FUCK AM I ALIVE IF I CANT EVEN USE SPELLS"
"Hold on," she says "I never said you cant use spells." "You just have to use them in a different way"
Rage quickly became curiosity, so i asked" and how do i do this"
"Simple. Eat this" and hands me a Purple apple.
I look at her suspiciously, but my curiosity was burning so i took a bite, and after noticing how hungry i was, quickly devoured it. I screamed in pain. A multitude of images burned themselves in my head.
After i calmed down, which was about 15 minutes later i now knew how to wield my power. Basically, chaos had 3 "Modes". Long range, short range, and medium range. Chaos cannot generate by itself, meaning that i could not get regenerate my "Chaos mana". Short range, which is also close combat, Restores chaos by Absorbing the enemys blood with my power. Me, who isnt good at fighting in close combat, does not want to learn this "Mode". Another Fact i learn that should i happen to ever run out of chaos energy, there i no know way to replenish it, except by sharing mana, which i cant since there is no other person that uses chaos energy. Middle range, which gets its power By absorbing the enemys life force, is powerful and well versed. Long range is unique. It gets its power by Destroying nature And life force & blood. But the problem is that it is extremely weak at close range, and has no moves to defend itself with. All this information and more came to me in an apple. Seriously, gods are weird. All this info is great and all but.." This info is great and all, but i dont have any spells to use this Knowledge with"
"Of course not. If i gave you the spells, what fun would that be?'
"WHAT!?!?! GIVE ME SOME FUCKING SPELLS!!"
Suddenly i felt an immense pressure on my back, like i was bearing the weight of the world itself on my back. Her hand went under my chin and forced my head to her eyes. I shuddered, as it felt as if she could devour me with her eyes alone.
"No mere mortal, under ANY fucking circumstances, will tell me what to do" she says, "Do you understand me?"
I nod my head, although i still held defiance in my eyes
"Good!" and she returns back to normal, the pressure disappearing along with her.
"As funny as it would be to leave you without any spells and force you to figure them out on your own, i will give you a choice of 7 spells for any mode you pick."
I nod, happy to get some spells. I think long and hard about this. As much as i try to deny it, im not that great of a swordsman. Dont get me wrong, im still an extremely proficient swordsman, but it wasnt my strong suit. My holy magic kept me alive through my hardest of fights, and thats what is most important. Middle range sounds great, as it is well rounded and has skills that can absorb life force from a distance, letting me stay alive longer while not being close. As fun as long range sounds, it seems like it would be a serious power waster, and i dont know how much mana i need for a spell. Plus, long distance was never really my strong suit. After pondering for about an Hour, i finally made my choice.
"Middle Range please"
*Poof* a book appears in her hand with big bright golden letters titled -MIDDLE- (I know, seriously crafty huh^^) Khali Hands me than book, and the second i touch it, my brain is slammed with images and explanations of khali doing different spells.
After finally recovering from the pain an hour later, i learned, just as khali said, 7 new spells. 2 summoning, 1 defensive spell(Seriously!?!?! that bitch gave me one shield spell) A teleport spell (this bitch..seriously gave me a middle range teleport spell. If 0-200 meters is short, then 200-400 meters is middle, and 400-600 meters is long....specific ass bitch) and 3 attack spells. One of the attack spells seemed extremely interesting. It covers an area of 500 meters (yeah, even longer than my teleport spell, logic right?) and sends out invisible black mist, that i can completely control. ( Im going to use this move like Feng Shen li's Mc's Uncle does) Sounds powerful, but it wastes 2/5 of my mana. Not a move ill use alot until i get more power. Fun fact, Chaos power doesnt have a limit. I can get an finite amount of power, but i can also lose it all. A serious double edged sword.
I stand up, as i was on the ground from the pain. "Thank you...this means alot to me.. one day i will pay you back"
"Oh trust me, you will pay me back" she says with an evil smile
"No, im really happy you gave a human like me such power but.. why did you give me them?"
Khali waves her hand and suddenly soft clothes surround me. Oh meh gerd. Ive been naked this whole time. I cant even look khali in the face my face is so red.
"Sorry" she says, "But you junk was dangling and it was hard to focus" I turned an even deeper shade of red, if thats possible.
"Why did i give you that power you ask? Boredom. I've been watching over this world since it began, and i haven't interfered with it much. So when i felt a presence inside my lake, i decided to check it out. Imagine my surprise seeing a weird looking demon standing in a drained ravine." she chuckles
I think to myself. Its not impossible.... i mean if she really is a primordial being, then she was around before the earth was built. That's seriously a long time. I would be extremely bor--"WAIT, WHAT DO YOU MEAN DEMON!?!?!"
She looks at me quizzically and then out of Nowhere pulls out a mirror. What i see is a...
HI GUYS!! This was a pain in the ass to write. IF you saw my rampage at the beginning, i was seriously angry, lol. But yeah. Same as before. Constructive criticism is welcomed. I tried making it longer, hope you like :3 yes i know that i didnt punctuate right ( """" ''''' ) but having to write this a second time i really didnt care. Next time i'll do it all right. Other than that, there shouldn't be any spelling
