Book 2: Epilogue
Finally, after a long honeymoon night, Nick and Tiffany leave her room to meet up with all the others. Not knowing any better place to meet, the others all met up back in the throne room.
“Okay Nick it appears everyone is here. What life threatening news do you have?” –Queen DeMonte
“Who said anything about life threatening?” –Nick
“Well it must be life threatening by the way you and my daughter were going on all night long. As only a threat of sure death and destruction should cause such actions!” –Queen DeMonte
“Mom! Stop making this worse, let’s just hear what Nick has to say.” –Tiffany
Of course Tiffany was extremely embarrassed by the way her mother was acting in front of Nick’s friends and family.
Before he started, Nick took a moment to survey everyone. He noticed everyone had stronger auras about them and that every last one of them was at least level 200, with only the two dragons and other non humans having a higher level.
“Well it seems everyone was busy last night, that’s good.” –Nick
“See? I told you this was a good idea! We can’t let him get ahead of us, and we even got bonus points and cheats for reaching level 200, gotta love Sally, she knows how to treat us!” –Solaria
“Yea, I had no clue all the things I could do with blood magic, I’m pretty badass now and with this armor, I’m unstoppable!” –Maya
“Eh hum! Quiet up a bit, this is important.” –Nick
“Okay we are all ears!” –Solaria
“Since the heroes are here and this involves them as well, I’ll first say that there is a very easy way to go back and forth between our worlds. For the heroes already here just talk to the blue screen and you can freely travel between both places at any time, you can also use the system back on Earth which is really cool. It also seems the blue screen has renamed this world Zeus… Don’t ask why.” –Nick
“This is great news Aya, we can finally go home and see our families!” –Hiro
“Yea that’s great! Isn’t it Hina?” –Aya
“Whatever, I’m still have stuff to do here anyways, you can tell my family where I am.” –Hina
“Before you two leave, know that the whole evolution thing is still going on and the world will be destroyed in 6 months if someone doesn’t destroy the system on Earth. An entity that appears to function very similar to the Goddess of Wisdom here.” –Nick
“Will we be safe on this planet?” –Hiro
“Most likely, you are part of the system here so that should supersede the Earth’s system, at least for you two since you are not supers.” –Nick
“Well that’s a relief, c’mon Aya let’s go home, we can come back here later if need be.” –Hiro
“Okay!” –Aya
And like that, the two useless heroes left, never to be seen or heard from again (hopefully).
“I’ll help.” –Hina
“What is that Hina?” –Nick
“I see the timer counting down from 6 months, I’ll help in the final battle, but I have a mission to finish first, though I’m not 100% sure how to do it. It’s on this planet but not on this continent, but I’ve read all the books in the library and there is no mention of other continents.” –Hina
“You are in luck! I’ve seen the other continent. The one we are on now is about the size of Australia, but to the west across the massive ocean is a huge continent the size of Pangaea, you just have to bypass the ocean and that huge hurricane anomaly thing.” –Nick
“How?” –Hina
“I see you have a dragon with you, Kiki was it? Voarag keeps mentioning you, I should remember that or something. Anyways, dragons are like space ships as they can carry people from planet to planet. Just have your dragon take you into space and bypass the annoying parts and land in the new continent.” –Nick
“Good, I can finish my mission then who knows, I may be strong enough to beat the system on Earth, only time will tell.” –Hina
“It’s so weird hearing you say so many words at once… Well the rest of us need to make a decision on how we are going to attempt to get stronger so we can destroy the system on Earth. Any questions or ideas?” –Nick
“I have one for Hina. Before you leave, can I come with you? I have a thirst for power that cannot be quenched here, the Demon King is dead and the dragons are friendly, there are no more formidable opponents to defeat.” –Joseph
“Fine, hop on.” –Hina
“Wait! Before you go, I have some useless items I was making for some reason, maybe this is why!” –Nick
“Hah I remember those shiny baubles!” –Lily
Then Nick took out a full set of armor and a huge sword out of his interspatial ring and tossed them towards Joseph. When Joseph looked at the stats he almost fainted.
“W w what is this? The stats are incredible! Hah at first I hated you for stealing Tiffany, but now I don’t hate you so much, with this gear I will be unstoppable!” –Joseph
Then Joseph put on the armor and strapped the huge ass sword on his back. He then turned towards Hina and nodded, they both jumped on Kiki who had enlarged herself to be able to accommodate them properly and shot off into space.
“Hey! Why did you let her go? I felt a kindred spirit in her! After this you better go chase her down, don’t let some other loser steal her heart!” –Solaria
“*SIGH* That isn’t important right now! We all need to get stronger to defeat the system. We also need someone connected to the system to send other immortals to this planet to train. Porter and Barb, can you be in charge of that?” –Nick
“Sure, not doing anything else, there are tons of heroes in the database that would fit the bill and there are plenty of dungeons that replenish themselves with monsters to train at here! This world is great! Let’s go Barb, we need to get started right away!” –Porter
This tale has been unlawfully lifted from Royal Road; report any instances of this story if found elsewhere.
“Before you go, know that I won’t be around most likely as I am going to find the aliens that survived this system in the past and see what they did. Now that I have Voarag, getting from planet to planet will be easy.” –Nick
“Okay Nick, no problem! Let’s go Barb.” –Porter
“Okay honey!” –Barb
And with a flash of light those two left back to Earth to start their mission.
“Mr. Absolute, you are the strongest, any ideas?” –Nick
“Yes, blue screen Sarah has helped me a lot and I no longer need to train here after gaining so much knowledge, so I’m going back to my meditation chamber to cultivate. I plan to get as strong as possible and fight the system the day before the timer hits 0. So be ready for battle on that date rain or shine!” –Mr. Absolute
Not waiting for an answer, one could hear Mr. Absolute mumbling to the blue screen just before he disappeared in a flash of light.
“Wait! Doesn’t this mean that we can teleport wherever we want with the help of blue screen?” –Lea
“Pretty much, I learned how to teleport myself so I’m sure others can do, it’s not hard.” –Nick
“Excellent! I’m so going to use that in the very near future. Beam me up Emily!” –Lea
Yes Mother!
And like that Lea disappeared and a few moments later reappeared.
“That is so cool!” –Lea
“Now that important part. I’m going to travel the cosmos for a solution, who is coming with me and who is doing other things? Know that you can teleport to me at any time with the system, so finding me is easy. You can even telepathy from the soullink to talk to me, so don’t feel bad if you don’t wanna go on a long boring mission into outer space…” –Nick
“Well you know we are staying with you, no way are we letting you out of our sight.” –Solaria
“You tell him Solaria!” –Maya
“Figures, what about you three that are from here?” –Nick
“I cannot leave yet, we still have to unify the lands here after the Demon King’s death, that alone will take 6 months.” –Tiffany
“And I’m part of the alliance, and the only thing keeping the Elves together, so I also have to stay.” –Valerie
“Not me, I’m coming with you! I’m already the Demon Queen and the strongest one on the Demon Continent! No one comes to my castle and there is no need to do anything else as I already gave instructions, they will listen to Valerie or Tiffany and if they don’t, you two have permission to kill them.” –Lily
“That… that is too much data at one time. Okay, what about you Lea?” –Nick
“I can’t go with you right now, I’m the Matriarch of my people and I have to be near them most of the time, but I can at least visit as I have no long term plans.” –Lea
“That’s it for now, time to make a journey and save the world!” –Nick
“””Yay!””” –Solaria, Maya, Lily
----------------------------------------
Hiro’s Dad’s POV
Ahh it’s been 6 months, let’s see how my little project is doing… WHAT? She already killed the Demon King and found the lost Continent? This is amazing news! Now we can get rid of that stupid shield blocking the two Continents and can finally start sending our Champions to the new land so they can train!
It’s going to be perfect! Oh I better update Hina’s quest, ahh that’s it! Now she knows she is to establish herself in the new Continent and wait for the Champion to come to be trained by her. If all goes well I will be able to win this year’s War of the Champions!
Oh how hard life is as the Trickster God Loki. I set up so much work just to have a son with the coolest name ever for a hero, and even made sure he would have companions and what does he do? He blows it! Scared of a little blood? Useless!!!! Both he and Aya were useless, but I was so excited when I met Hina for the first time when she was 3. She not only faced death head on but overcame fear itself!
It’s too bad we were not able to send any Champions from his Earth or I would have just chosen Nick, now that guy knows how to get shit done. But fortunately I had a backup plan that let me send heroes to the new area ahead of time! It’s almost like a cheat! Of course I had to make sure the two idiots plus Hina got to the right place at the right time, as well as make sure Nick bought the one advice that would open up the hero summoning circle. My plan so far has been perfect!
Fortunately Hina was perfect and able to learn everything I could teach her. Of course I didn’t want my son to die so I made sure to make Hiro and Aya read the skill books, just enough so they wouldn’t die over there, but they simply did not have the potential of Hina. I even put a love geass on them to ensure they stayed together long enough, it wasn’t a strong one, it would break as soon as they broke into the Demigod realm, but who cares! By that time all the dirty work will be done, and I was right! A Total success!
Now I just need to send my real Champion to the new Continent over there and make sure she learns enough to survive long enough to find Hina. Then my ultimate plans will come to life and I will win! Ahh it’s so hard to win the War of the Champions that occurs every 100 years, some of the Gods are just ridiculously powerful and give their individual blessings to their Champion which is just unfair! I’m just glad to find two people who share the dark attribute from birth and can learn my trickery!

Buahahaha didn't see that coming huh? Next arc is full of craziness. Hina's side story will continue but in an unexpected way. It will be put separately from Nick's story but please read it or the finale won't make as much sense. Hiro's dad aka Loki will make some more appearances as well, and who is the new mystery champion? Only time will tell Buahahahahaha!
