A year passed since the death of Raoul and his mother and the cover up story of how they died soon spread like wildfire across the continent of Gigamesh, reaching the ears of the races of every nation. A story that left a bitter taste in the mouth of anyone who heard it or read of it, A nerve racking rumor that made Raoul out to be a monster without any moral or regard for the life of anyone.
On the day the news of Raoul's Death was to be announced to the people of the empire, The king requested the people to gather in the square’s of the town’s for the news they had for them. Curious as to what this was, the people came in their thousands as a magic projection of the 1st Princess of the empire appeared.
“Hello citizens of the Mearis empire, I Princess Amelia Pendragon stands before you today to make known to all the death of the 3rd prince, My brother Raoul Pendragon, It saddens me to notify you of this however we the royal family have decided not to keep it a secret any longer, The Prince we all loved commited a crime so great we did not expect it and by the time we realized what was happening it was already too late, The Maid servant/Concubine of the king was beheaded by Prince Raoul...Her own flesh and blood, He also tried to murder our father the king saying he is the only one who deserves to wear the crown and rule the empire but luckly our brother saul was there to stop him in his before he could bring harm to our father. Prince Raoul In an angry fit of rage chopped off his own arm when caught, trying to escape. When we found him he had locked himself in the room of his mother, before setting it ablaze with her body and perished.”

Light pierced the lids of his eyes as he opened them again for the first time in years.
“Cough, cough”
He raised his hands to cover his mouth and a handful of dust flew into his face causing him to sneeze uncontrollably, he was covered in dust and cobweb that had settled on him from head to toe and his condition that of someone who hasn’t eaten for days. He reached for his neck and his chest but beneath the dust only scars remained. A faint purple glow could be seen from his chest as he rubbed away the dust. confusingly he looked around wonder where he was and why he was there, the last thing he remembered was being impaled by his brothers sword and his neck being slit before everything went dark and cold.
“W-where am i…..Argh....I died again…..but i’m alive...i don’t think i reincarnated though so how did i come back this time”
Trying to stand, his feeble body fell back to the ground, unable to carry his own weight.
“Arrrrrrrrrrgh! Dam it!! Those bastards!! What did they do to me!?”
He shouted and cried out in rage and anger as he laid there too weak to move. The memories of his mother ran through his mind as he recalled everything that had happened.

After a while laying there on the hard stone floor, He fell asleep unconcerned about his situation and the predicament he now found himself in.
“My My, You’ve Finally awaken from your slumber Prince Raoul..Hmm you don’t seem too happy to be alive though if i may say so myself”
Raoul slowly opened his eyes peaking through his messy over grown hair to see who was talking to him but there was no one there. The person laughed then Raoul realized the direction of the voice it was behind him, Struggling to turn around Raoul rolled over and lifted his head to see better. A woman sat in a throne no more than Twelve feet away from him in the dark of the room. her eye's glowing a bright Amber red as if fire was lit inside them.
"W-who are you? Are you the one who resurrected and put me here?"
The woman stared at him for a while before getting up and walking towards him, when she walked out of the darkness she stooped down and gently held Raoul by the chin, examining him with her eye's. Smoke soon started to emit from where she held Raoul, in response to the pain Raoul flinched pulling away.
"Did you just burn me!?"
"Good grief....it's a force of habit hehe...well this is your new home Prince Raoul, Welcome to the abyss"
"W-what!? How did i end up here?? Why am i here"
".............."
"ANSWER ME!!.......Please....help me"
"For a prince you sure seem to cry alot...sighs..humans.....The will of the world may be what brought you here"
"What?"
"Whenever there is imbalance in power the world summons it's Chosen Hero's to keep the balance in check...so if i'm correct a kingdom somewhere has conducted the forbiden summoning ritual"
"The will of the world...summoning ritual...why would anyone do that...that spell requires a sacrifice and it must be done in an order that requires the blood of a M-"
The woman stands up and looks at Raoul with her burning eye's and then starts to laugh historically as Raoul's face becomes filled with terror and disbelief.
"You finally put it together haven't you? Finally seeing everything you missed while you were blinded by your familiea little act"
"No...no...no...it can't be.."
"It definitely is the truth though..you and your Mommy WERE THE SACRIFICE for that summoning ritual and by some twisted stroke of luck you were resurrected and preserved in the abyss by the will of the world for some unknown reason"
Raoul rolled over unto his back and stared at the dungeon roof in disbelief, he assumed he and his mother where killed because of his right to the throne but in reality they were sacrificed for the summoning of the four Holy hero's.
" I liked it better when i didn't know we were used as sacrifices...damn father"
Raoul let out a deep sigh and closed his eyes, The woman tilted her head confused, thinking Raoul would've have been furious at what really happened to him and his mother, her eye's filled with curiousity.
"Interesting...very very interesting...you don't seem to be bothered at all about what i told you? Is it that you no longer care about what was done to you?"
The room remain silent as the woman stared at Raoul awaiting his answer...Raoul seemed to have been gathering his thoughts.
"Mhmm it's not that complicated..I am furious about what was done...it's unforgivable...but i can't lose my composure or ill lose my life yet again..Right now what i need to do is become stronger and gain allies...Then ill return what was done to me, by Ten fold"
The Woman Felt a cold chill for a quick minute and became extremely overjoyed because of what she heard.
"Amazing! Truly Amazing!!! You will become a worthy Dungeon Master!!, I'll help you with your revenge Young Prince so please when the time comes be sure to entertain me well haha"
Raoul in shock at how the woman was reacting looked at her with disdain and discomfort, worried having this woman around would bring more harm than good.
[[Ahh i knew it was a bit strange that since being reincarnated i hadn't come across one of them, mhm mhm now here i finally met one...the one female all anime characters try to avoid....The Yandere..]]
Raoul let out a deep sighs as Phoenix helped him up while laughing Joyfully showing an insidious smile revealing her excitement due to her high expectations of Raoul.
