In an unknown place where even Gods fear to go, there was a lone man not creature in black. To his side, nay, over his body was countless creatures of darkness. He was a creature that the Gods fear the most as he was a being that was born to slay Gods unlike a certain 'cousin species' that happened to do the same once or a few times.
[So it has ended.....a century.....a century more is all I need to break this seal on me]
If you looked closely the creature that was known as many things in history was chained down. Unbreakable chains bound him to this land and he could not move. The creature known as the number 666 and the beast could not help to despair in his failure to escape from such a trap.
However he smiled as if he knew something in the world changed.
[Oh, so the youngest made a step forward while the oldest left this plane]
His body filled with even more power due to this caused the darkness around him to spread even more in excitement.
[Soon....soon the light of Gods will fall and only the darkness will remain!]
The creature shouted in the air and space where there was nothing but him there

In a virtual space that was certainly not Royal Road, two people sat. They wore casual clothing and were sitting softly on chairs watching the television. One of these two had long blonde hair and a perfect face while the other had short brown hair and looked like a cute child. These two people were Alexandra and Viv who watched the series of events that happened with Eden when both of them died.
“Is it me or did Eden just get stronger during the fight. Geez how much stronger will be grow...” complained Alexandra as she needed to catch up to Eden once again.
Viv however smiled, “Don't worry Al, Eden will now laze around to the point that we will have to bother Eden to make sure he gets stronger as well.”
Alexandra nodded to this with a smile as well. They soon watched the tower coming and Eden entering and their final farewell. At the end Eden let out a single tear.
“Hmm~” Alexandra looked on in amusement. Now she had another thing to tease Eden about.
“So Eden does have emotions” muttered Viv, “It now doesn't seem like a lost case to install some common sense into him.”
The two chattered away talking about various things until they could go back into the game again. Their adventure also only just started.

“This is Shin Hye-Min reporting from KMC Media on the latest and largest siege battle recorded in the game so far!”
It just been a few weeks since the siege of Morata played out and there were several more sieges in the central continent with the Hermes Guild of the Haven Kingdom battling the Knights of Kallamore. It was all exciting battle but it still not compare to Weed's battle.
“Yes Shin Hye-Min, although it was not completely recorded due a lack of players being involved, the commission for help mid-way in the siege battle was at the highest rank S” said a man called Oh Joo-Wan who was a co-host on air as well.
“It is surprising that players were not completely involved in this matter. The place nicknamed 'Final Fort' by the guilds that immediately accepted the commission was said to be someone worse than fighting several boss monsters at once!” Shin Hye-Min too was excited since it was the first time these words were used this way.
“Yes” Oh Joo-Wan laughed and then added in,“Fortunately we have received word that three particular people that have been unknown to the world were in the centre of this storm! One of the players involved in the siege itself posted a 5 day long video of the battle. We will show a short clips from the entire series of battles!”
In the screen was an army that consisted of hundred of thousands and they fought bravely against the enemy without regard to their life. The sheer power of both sides puts to shame regular armies and regular siege battles as well. At the start of the battle a giant meteor came from the heavens and stuck the enemy hard. The armies then fought with the smaller army slowly advancing. More clips showed a giant warrior of light appearing and destroying parts of the walls with it's giant sword while a giant stone golem appeared and crushed the knights that fought it.
Soon clips were shown of lava being poured causing the land and people there to be burnt to death. The sheer amount of lava was horrifying to the point that the viewer felt the heat even fro watching it on a screen. Then a massive black dragon appeared out of nowhere and turned the place into stone and ice, freezing the lava.
Then suddenly more enemies appeared and more allies appeared as well as they slowly pushed ahead to the end where three beings appeared. One carried the power of wind and sliced everything with his wind. Another was a magician that completely dominated with magic. The last was a black demon of flames that burnt and consumed everything with it's black flames. Such a sight in the game inspired everyone to get stronger till they can fight such creatures.
Then from the army came three people. One looked like a Valkyrie that soared in the battlefield, the other looked like a Witch from the deep forbidden forest and the last was someone that could not be described by anything but a monster. They fought and each defeated the enemies. More clips appeared as a giant black monster appeared and with it, came a battle between it and the black dragon from earlier. The battle had cut short with the Dragon turning into a human figure creating a giant sword that pierced the giant and the land into two.
You could be reading stolen content. Head to Royal Road for the genuine story.
The clips ended there.
“Amazing, to thing we would see such an intense battle!” said Shin Hye-Min.
Oh Joo-Wan added in, “Indeed, it is unfortunate that players involved have also requested that we are not to reveal any information on their identity and those three in particular. We respect that wish however it is clear that these people either players or NPCs are possibly some of the top beings in the entire game. To finish a S ranked quest like that!” Oh Joo-Wan had admiration in his words. However Shin Hye-Min reputed those words, “The players involved said that there was no quest at all in fact beside the commission! They also said that after the battle that one of these unknown powerful people have threatened them to hide their identities!”
“Is this a challenge to the top players in finding their identities?” asked Oh Joo-Wan with a hint of malice in his mouth.
“Perhaps but we were not allowed to show those people' faces in the clips so hiding their identities will be easy as long as they change their armour and use different skill from then. In fact many players have already reported in the past of people that had similar skills within the western continent particularity during the great unification war in the western continent!” said Shin Hye-Min.
“We will report more on this as information comes in.”

Seriously?! Someone actually managed to record the entirely of the 5 day battles. Was there was a player in the sent over army from the central and eastern continent? It wasn't that uncommon for players to be included in the national army but for me to not notice that at all...
Drinking the juice wearing the same clothes and armour as in the siege battle I drank my juice since juice tasted nice and thanked the Gods that the player didn't have a clear shot at all with the three of us. They only got at most one or two still shots of our back at most. However our skills were shown in plain sight...I better get those guys at Unicorn to alter some things to erase such records from the world.
Finishing my juice, I walked upstairs the tavern where I rented a room for a few days. While I could use Spacial Teleportation to go anywhere I wanted, I wanted to laze around for a bit longer. Maybe for another week or so.
On the soft bed, I lied down still wearing my armour on since it was comfortable enough to do so. Honestly it had been so long since my quest log was empty...no quest to do...just need to laze around and do nothing for at least a while. As I closed my eyes to sleep and to finally relax completely ever since years ago, my back sudden felt the cold hard ground just when I was about to sleep.
“What the...”
I looked around and this is not my room that I rented out. It was dark and there were blue flames everywhere and I couldn't see the ends to a wall anywhere. From the rock ceiling above me I was probably underground or something.
“Where am I?”

Author's Notes:
- And this is the true end of this series. It's been a fun journey with many ups and so many more downs. Ah...to think this started last year and I actually finished though it was more like me forcing a lid on this series. However Eden's story as well as Alexandra and Viv's story haven't ended yet. There is a sequel series that will set place around 20 years in real life time after this story and about 100 years in RR, to be precise just under 100 years. I am working on refining it at least and will not post anything about it for a few months I would think. Lots of things to decide here and there.
- Another thing is that I'm going to now focus on the Seoyoon's Journey Reboot that I started back up. Only posted one chapter so far since I was focusing on finishing this series before anything else. Now I can once again work on that collab series with Ninnin as well.
- Anyway Thanks to everyone who have supported this series whenever you decided to read it. Till the next time :grin:
