As far as I remember, My mother and father were trying their best to let me relieve the memories that were erased from me.

I can hear the sound... The sound of Heaven's door opening for me. Behind it, was just pure darkness that surrounds the very place... I can't help it, but forsake God for what he did.

My mother gave me a book, A book that will help me for the better. I read it and read it until I was satisfied. Seems to be absolute with words, but was just a fraud statement saying that the world is not forsaken. How can I be someone they trust when I am the one who can't be trusted? Is it too much to beg for? Or is it just an illusionary boundary that kept me from coming back to who I was...

"Hold my hand." told by my mother with her courage to help me walk on my own. All I felt was pain. My back kept on trembling as I walk the very corridors under the roof I lived on.

Then I saw the flashing light of God that let me relieve my memories in an instant. But from whence the memories started to fade back to reality, my parents died under God's curse. Leaving me and my little sister in the household they left.

I mourn the death of my parents and my memories started to fade again. My memories were erased and left me unaided all the times. The questions that I asked my aunt kept repeating on itself,

But.

That doesn't let me down, My little sister gave me an opportunity to relieve my memories again and casts some sort of spell on me by an unknown person.

"None is Absolute"

A long time ago, I kept on repeating that motto of mine in hopes of finding the answer I was looking for.

Somehow, these memories of mine are locked into a safe the unknown man called, "Memory Haven". It felt like my life was a story that was created to be protected.

I left my room and entered the same corridors that I kept on passing by, Entered a room where my parents left some records about the All-out War that All-Father started. God and All-Father are not one person, They are two separate people whom one is more powerful. I lost hope to the two gods giving me the opportunity to have the curse called "Apostasia".

The room was like a neverending library. The room was filled with bookshelves that I once a child wanted to count how many shelves are there in the room. I went to the section where one of the Apostles of All-Father wrote some records about her experiences being an Apostle. I grabbed one of the records titled, "Eden Records #58203" which is a book containing the spells that the Apostle of All-Father wrote a long time ago. I turned to the page where all the oath spells were written. I for sure was short on mana but all it takes is to use a secondary mana supply called, "Second Gear". I went to my room and removed the carpet that was hiding the magic circle that I drew just for this day.

I cut my skin using the knife that my father used just for survival and used the container to fill my blood with that was used by my mother to fill with her blood just for a blood oath.

"Curaticficta"

My wound was healed and the container was filled with my blood. I spat on the blood and mixed it. After that, I spilt the blood on the magic circle and activated the "Second Gear". I felt the pain of losing mana, but I need to continue this long spell guaranteed to let me enter the qualifications of entering the All-out War.

"I, a magus of the forgotten past. Bowed to left hope in All-Father, Bowed to believe in God's words. Believed that there are two supreme beings, governing this very universe, Now that anger filled my very heart, Thy is the time to leave my hope to All-Father and despair on the actions made." 

I, Somehow felt the pain of the mana slowly depleting from the "Second Gear" and let my fears not overcome my very own body. The sensations that I felt with this strong magic energy. Somehow, it looked like it was transferring me some sort of dark energy. The formless me was battling the dark energy and was triumphant. The spell was successful. And somehow it felt like it didn't finish the usual order. So I went to the kitchen to drink some water. 

Then enters my Little Sister or Meguri. One of those who helped me relieve my memories.

"Oh, Hey Onii-chan."

"What's the matter?"

"Nothing, just feeling hungry I guess"

Seems so. I felt hungry as well, I tried fasting for one week, but I luckily survived. One week fasting is great, but it can ruin one's health. The thing is, Meguri went on vacation for three months and she just arrived yesterday. I can say that she improved a lot. She matured and became like Mom sometimes.

"You're hungry right?"

Her stomach growls and was embarrassed, I went to the refrigerator to look for any spare ingredients... Luckily found some ingredients... 1 pound of chicken, 2 scallions, All purpose flour, some seasonings and some panko bread crumbs. 

"I'll cook some fried chicken, I'm hungry as well..."

"Hmm... Okay then."

She sits on the chair and turned on the T.V. For some reason, It seems that the All-out War is only happening in three countries. Japan, Germany, and Sweden. I don't know why it is only happening in the three countries, but I guess It seems to be All-Father wanted to happen it in these countries. 

On short notice, I heard someone shouting in my room. But felt like it was just my Imagination so I proceeded to prepare the batter for the chicken and prepared the rice. After a few minutes, I coated the chicken with the batter and cook it. Mostly, Coating chicken with batter is really fun. It's like dressing a child in wet paint. After I put the chicken in frying oil, I heard another voice coming from my room, I looked at Meguri and can tell that she's focused watching T.V. I checked the corridor and saw no one but darkness. I went back to the kitchen and continued watching the chicken getting cooked. After a few minutes, I rest the fried chicken on a drying rack and prepared dinner. I placed cooked rice on the table and Meguri helped me preparing the plates. I'm going say this, but Mother and Father grew up in a habit where they put the rice on a plate so they can get rice without going to the rice cooker and instead of bowls, they ate meals in plates. Due to their deaths, We followed the tradition they followed as well...

We finished our dinner and Meguri went back to her room. We had a discussion about her vacation... It seems like she discovered that Japan was protected by some barrier, but I didn't believe it that led us to an argument...

I went back to the library and looked for a few books to read... I reached the Dead End of the library knowing that it wasn't an endless void. On the wall, there are scriptures written, It was some sort of ancient language... Not Ancient Greek, Not Hebrew, Not Tamil, Not Persian both Old and Middle, Not Avestan, Not Chinese, Not Arabic, Not Sanskrit, but a language that was used by All-Father. With it, I went directly to the section where the Eden Records are placed and grabbed all of it to know how to read that scripture. I know it will take me days to finish 85,000 books or maybe weeks to finish this... Though I'm a fast reader, It reminds me of the day when I finished reading 50 novels in one day, and also the day that I finished reading 200 novels in one day. It will be a challenge for a good purpose. A reward that I will not regret... 

...

After 3 weeks of reading, I somehow finished reading the whole Akashic Records of Edenia. I read nothing about the language that All-Father used. So I went back to the Scripture and Investigated it. Somehow it looked like it was engraved on the wall. To me, It looks a little bit off because Edenia stated that the Apostles converse in the same way as normal people meaning that All-Father has his language that only the people of the heavens can understand... Come to think of it, I remembered Dad reading some sort of book when I was young, He said that It was very important. I need that book, It might be holding the answers that I need.

"What are you doing?"

Without knowing that Meguri entered the Library, I was scared for a moment and looked at her. 

"Um      "

"I know you want to find out about that scripture"

"How did you know?"

"I've been visiting this library before Mom and Dad passed away, I reached the Dead End as well and thought about the scripture engraved on the wall... As you see, Edenia didn't state in her records that she knew All-Father's language all along."

"Wait... What?"

"As you see, All-Father knew that Edenia kept on writing records till All-Father summoned the cursed demon called "Sekai-no-Apostasia". She was cursed and her last record was this..."

She passed the "last record" to me and caught it perfectly.

"That's the last record, she wrote titled, "Eden Record: Integrity". Some believe that the book was the last record, but Mom and Dad found out that It wasn't"

Somehow, I believe what she was trying to say, but I got confused on the part of the cursed demon.

"Turn it to page 174, It contains the language of the scripture, try taking a break first you know? You've been in this library for 3 weeks. Have you eaten?"

"Yeah, why?"

"Nothing, just worrying."

She left the room and closed the door. As she said, "Turn to page 174". So I turned it to page 174, It contains the secrets of the scripture on the wall. 

"Is it a statement? or a declaration?"

Based on what I have read and what I have learned. the scripture is, "Those who seek, shall receive power." but that leaves me to the point that how can those who seek to receive the power they wanted? are they power-hungry? Or is it All-Father tempting those who seek power... After all, He is the reason why this world is forsaken.

I went back to my room and lied on my bed. I rested.

...

The Alarm clock rang, It rang and it rang as I get annoyed by the sound. I threw the clock and went back to bed for a few more hours.

...

I woke up with darkness in my sight, I get out of bed and went to the bathroom. I brushed my teeth and took a shower, I get dressed and went outside. The streets seem to be quiet, with all the war happening. This street is always filled with people who go to work and students. Though Considering why did it come to this, But that's how it is. I went to the nearby church and attended mass, it was Sunday so I attended mass. Even if God abandoned Hope, I will still serve him as the one and only God. 

...

After the Mass, I went back to the house immediately. Meguri was watching T.V so I didn't bother her, I went to my room and opened my closet. I grabbed the playing cards that was beside my clothes and closed my closet. Thus, I placed the deck of cards on the magic circle that I forgot to hide using the carpet. I put the spare blood that I kept aside and sat in front of the magic circle. Then I performed a Divination.

The First Gear's mana started to deplete slowly as the cards started to shuffle. As the cards shuffle, It started to put the cards on the 7 circles in order. Next is the 7 Daggers of Skia. Within me, the soul that was mixed with the magus bloodline. Projected the 7 Daggers of Skia and stabbed the cards with dark energy. My First Gear's Mana will be empty soon, I need to supply the First Gear using the Second Gear's spare mana, But it will result from heavy pain and some sort of damage in the Mana depletion stage when using the Second Gear. I have no choice but to supply it. Inside me was like... adding another gear in the mana gears. If Meguri would perform this, It'll be pretty easy for her because she has thousands of mana gears, Mom said that she inherited grandma's specialty called, "Gear Count Overload". but for me, I only inherited Mom and Dad's specialty. Mom's specialty is called, "Seven Moons" and Dad's specialty is called, "Mimicry". Still today, the "Seven Moons" haven't awakened yet but the "Mimicry" was awakened a long time ago.

For the time being, The Divination ended and the mana supply was unsuccessful. The daggers disappeared and the magic circle disappeared. 

Then a flash of light appeared, the brightness caused the lights to shatter. And there it was. A sword.

"Hm..."

The sword was stuck on the floor with its power overflowing. I hold the sword's grip and felt it's power, I slowly pulled the sword from the floor and raised it over my head. The blade's edge was glowing and in the blade were runes used by the Ancestral Order. Then I heard the voice as same as before. I looked at my surroundings and carefully looked for the one who called for me.

"Let go of the sword"

Someone said to me and I let go of the sword. The sword disappeared and someone appeared in front of me in a form of a spirit. She reached out her hand and I hold her hand. Then a flash of light was at sight, It clears all the darkness in my room and left only was a card, it has no writing on it as it was only a blank card. Meguri knocked on the door and opened it.

"Seems like you're qualified for the All-out war"

"Why? How can you say that I'm qualified?"

She grabbed something in her pocket, the same card as mine but with some writing in it and an art. She showed it to me.

"As you see, I'm a Prophet Commander as well..."

With that said, The war seemed to have changed. it's been going for hundreds of years and All-Father decided to change it. By calling forth random people from other dimensions, those who proved to be worthy of being called A "Prophet of God" named under Major Arcanas.
