Leading to shadows / Lord of universe

[WARNING] Dear reader, I hope this novel finds you well. I am excited to present to you my first novel, which I have written as part of my English practice. I would like to kindly ask for your help in ensuring that it is free of any grammatical or spelling errors. Please feel free to point out any mistakes you may come across, and I will make the necessary edits. Thank you for your support and understanding. [SYNOPSIS] The Great Unholy War has brought forth unimaginable bloodshed and terror for five long years. Even the gods themselves dare not enter the battlefield. But there is one mortal who can stand against them all. You, dare mortal, have attempted to challenge the gods, but you are merely a pawn in this war. Your only escape is to flee when Blackstone, a broken god, urges you to do so. However, Leon, the protagonist, has grown tired of running away from his fate. He vows to end the war and take down every single god who believes themselves to be superior. The god of darkness, Erebus, tries to warn Leon to run, but before he can finish, he is killed by Odin, the King of Asgard. Leon uses his incredible swordsmanship, known as null swordsmanship, to defeat Odin and half of the army. But the war is far from over. Leon remains the target of those who seek to capture him and avoid the wrath of their master. He is the Holy Son, a warrior who fights for his own will and beliefs. The world of Era is under attack from an unknown species known as mutants. The Holy Saints, who fought to protect their own planet, have sacrificed themselves to create a barrier around half of the earth. The mutants can no longer penetrate this barrier, but the question remains: do the gods know if they are inside or not? This novel is filled with epic storylines, dragons, and numerous gods. I will be uploading two chapters every week, and I hope you enjoy reading them as much as I enjoyed writing them. Thank you for your time and support.

new journey

All of life's beauty is made up of light and shadows... this quote truly implies something amazing.

A new day, a new voyage someplace outside the barrier on the rock, someone is sleeping bro, can you wake up... a new task has been assigned... that man sleeping on the rock is Mc being a mercenary...

Players are men who work for their families, while mercenaries are those who solely work for themselves.

bro Someone has been tasked with assassinating the mutated Yati of North Pole... North Pole is renowned as a white bed adorned in red flowers... they are paying a lot of money for it...

Yati that has been mutated is a high level mutant.

Okay, I told them we'd finish this nonsense by next month... they said they wanted it done in 15 days....

Fuck the mission.

This assignment has been issued by the Philipines family, the strongest second family. Just fuck it and leave me sleep, you brat, and go practise your swordmanship and aura creation.

Swordmanship is graded on a scale of 1 to 9.

split into nine stars

First and foremost, learn the fundamentals.

2nd star - construct your base

3rd star - mana sensation

4th star - mastery of mana

5th star - aura creation

6th star - combine the aura in the sword

7th star - regulating aura in such a way that it can change shape

8th star - Rebuild the fundamentals

9th star - pure divine swordmanship that allows you to control space

I am Leon Zemin, as you are aware, I have many numerous identities... such as Jin and Ron, but this one is mine.  Lance Crownwell is a hired gun.

It all started when I killed Alex (the Zemin family's butler) and destroyed Copper's family.

The search for Alex's superpowers is now done, and Emilia, Ian Copper's daughter is still with my friend, and I discover that if I do not give birth or make contact with anyone, no one dies, but I change my appearance and assume the identity of Lance Crownwell.

I go to a mercenary guild that is not controlled by any family.

I became a c rank mercenary, and my first job was to kill the Shadow Bird. The ambassador for this mission is the Rosewell family.

They are well-known for their alchemy.

It's a simple target shadow bird found in Australia's death woods.

mud fields, but to get from the barrier to Australia, we have two options: utilise teleportation magic, which can only be used by 7th circle magicians or above, or use the creatures.

There are various guilds such as mercenary, blacksmith, poison master, assassin, and so on.

One of them is beast taming.

To take a beast of a specific level, you must first be a member of Beast Tamer. If you are not a member, you must pay a large price. For mercenaries, the money they gain becomes a loss.

I chose to travel through bridge (which I wrote about in world building) because it doesn't cost much; it only costs $1,000. This price is neither low nor high; our plan is to go to bridge first, then to Asia, and then to Australia.

Beast taming is classified into three sections based on their habitats:

land water beast tamer tamer of beasts sky tamer of beasts

Water beast tamer is not expensive, simply fuck It.

We proceed to a guild that regulates the flow of the bridge's construction party and then cross the bridge.

The bridge is being built by the wizard guild and a few engineers.

We can cross the bridge in one or two days because a wizard enchanted it and boosted the pace by 30%...

I went to the rest spot near the bridge and registered, but they said I had to wait until tomorrow morning.

Sir, You can begin by reviewing basic guidelines and safeguards.

Precautions and rules. Don't try to kill anyone. Mutants of a high rank can destroy the bridge.It is not our problem if you die after crossing the bridge.

After viewing this, I told myself that I had to refrain from doing anything undesirable and maintain a modest level of activity.

Then I go to the refugee camp, which is a type of site where all families convert black money into white money if someone dies, who knows, so the money given by mercenaries grows over time by adding money to their account, and the refugees are black money exporters.

I didn't meddle; instead, I went to the rest stop and reserved a room for two people.

I walk to my room and see that a guy is sleeping on the bed; he is male; I go to my bed; the bed is divided; I go there and begin reading some books that my master gave me; after 2 hours, that guy wakes up and notices that I am reading books.

He asked, "What are you doing in my room?" I replied, "Wake up and see that this room is only for two people!" I see by the way, let me introduce myself, my name is William, and my name is Lance Crownwell (in an unwelcome way), and I say go to sleep, it's 1:00 a.m. tomorrow, and we have to travel to the Asian continent.

He then goes to consume food.

I said, "What a strange guy this morning, our party is composed of 20 members, of which I know only two, first William and Rosewell family third princess Olivia I didn't care from somewhere one guy appeared and I saw him you fucking shit of peice you can guess who he is William."

Hey man, how are you? Did you die somewhere? How can you say to your small brother, what little brother, when I told you were my little brother yesterday when ohh! you overlook

When I return to the room after eating, you are still reading, and we exchange some thoughts before I say you brother, and you say go sleep fucking bitch, and I sleep.

What are you talking about? Am I giving you permission to call me brother? Just fuck it and listen stay away from me ok brother, somehow I'm controlling myself that you're a good person in this instance, you're going to die in my hands you fucking piece of shit just go otherwise they'll leave.

We begin moving after 6 hours. What the fuck you piece of crap, stop talking or I will murder you, yeah you can, after all you are my older brother. 

Then night falls, and we have now traversed 2 -3 of the bridge, as you can see, there is a Bermuda triangle after millions of kilometres.

William is the youthful master of the fallen merchant group affiliated with Copper's family. He stated that he requires finances to raise his family.

I didn't care; I said William, "Please stop the announcement; we've been waiting here for an hour."

I take some food from my heaven's garden domain, as you can see heaven's domain can be used for storage, formation, teleportation, and so on.

Teleportation means I can transport myself or others within the heaven's garden dominion.

I begin eating.

Can you take some food from my bowl, William?

I don't like it, but my younger sister packed it... okay.

After approximately 16 people have gone to sleep, I take out my tent and begin reading some books. Then I hear some striking and use divine sense. There are also certain techniques linked to God Killer techniques.

I see something under water attempting to break the bridge, and it is a deity level beast at the Galaxy pieces level.

Cthulhu is his name.

Then I thought to myself, "Death is waiting at the gate." I said to William, "Yes big bro, you shit listen to me, pack your bag, take everyone in the party, and run towards the end." He ran towards the third princess of the Rosewell family, Olivia, and my big bro said, "Leave this place and move towards the end of the bridge."

what the fuck ate you saying young man he is Olivia's butler he is in his forties he said I am going if you like to come I am running with my bro

I'm running with William towards the bridge's end.

The description of Cthulhu

Cthulhu exists. Cthulhu is immortal, possesses enormous strength, can withstand massive amounts of damage, and can only be killed by a near-omnipotent power. He is capable of actual flight by using his wings.

He could be new offspring, which is why his level is low.

Following us are six members of the party, the rest of whom are Rosewell family members. After two hours, we are on the brink of the bridge, and with a splash, the bridge collapses.

I said conceal, so we hid ourselves. I utilise divine sense, and now that I'm listening to his words, I believe Cthulhu is the greatest being.

I said obsessed with himself now I can return to my tribe the master plan is now beginning that we collapsed the bridge now human power is divided into two groups our raises can open some gap between the barrier now we are able to attack the lowly humans it's their last line of defence ha ha ha he is now attacking the American empire and Asian empire (I explain it in world building chapter) it's my time

i said to Wiliam now you go to the Asian empire and inside the barrier

And what about you, bro ?

It's not your fight, it's not mine, and you're not strong enough to face him.

Olivia and his two to three minions I'm alive when I tell them the bridge is breaking and then, with the sound of collapsing, some creature comes out of the bridge that's the giant snake, which is also a heavenly beast.

Cthulhu answered, "Ancestor, why have you come out? You can sleep in peace. I am the great serpent that is here to stop you. My level is not high due to the injury that was given by the first saint in that fight. Hemdal almost killed that great serpent."

That enormous serpent is the beast at the level divine realm is he still getting orders from the first brother just fuck it focus there ancestor what are you doing here just inform the head of your tribe

Mutants whose level exceeds the constellation realm can communicate.

I see someone above the head of the serpent, it's a spirit of the first holy saint and the strongest one Hamel light I see from behind the tree the great serpent said tell the head of your race that if you dare to attack the human world, I will not sit like a dog, I will attack you ancestor come on our side we can defeat humans

Do you know that the Zemin family's leader is the loyal dog of the 'God of Chaos' (whatever that is)? We are not going back ancestor this is your final decision you brat no means no then with an instant cthulhu died

the great serpent is at divine realm that is whole two realm avobe the galaxy realm then with an instant one light coming from sky moves towards the great serpent that and the serpent killed cthulhu was only a clone ancestor I am telling you last time then fight goes worst and worst due to the force of then the ground Because of the force of then the ground is now breaking

great serpent wrap around the cthulhu then cthulhu fly towards the sky and then the great serpent bites the cthulhu (cthulhu body is hard as diamond) in the end the great serpent use self destruction in which they sacrifice their level and after some time they will be killed because of the age then Young cthulhu died and great serpent was lying on the water

I approach the serpent and see his soul slowly dissipating in the atmosphere, and suddenly the spirit of Hemdal appears in front of me and says, "The prophecy that you will return is true."

Airen

Sir, what are you talking about? My name is Lance Crownwell.

I said I was Lance Crownwell because William and his team were still looking at me. He said whatever and then he sent some knowledge through mana and the knowledge is storing in my mind and then the spirit said I am looking for you Airen and this is your fate and he dissolved in the atmosphere.. and I am here somewhere this is the capital of the kingdom of Halenheim.. it's one of the strongest countries where I am supposed to be.

I see some youngsters running and playing, folks enjoying themselves in the pub, farmers hoping for a good crop, lords planting to expand the kingdom, and suddenly the conflict between Halenheim and Patrisan breaks out.

Patrisan's place is also known as the world hell, and then all the people start fighting using swords, guns, poison, magic, and so on, and the whole world is well developed at the end I see so many casualties happen and Patrisan won than they attack the citizens of the halenheim country people who are knights, warriors, magicians, and so on, and they kill all the people or imprison them in the jail.. they increase the taxes, and half the people of kingdom

and then I see some children running from the knight of Patrisam all children die except one little boy and he was trembling in fear then he is ready to kill him then one guy appeared infront of him I see his face was covered with mask he said I am El sir sorry you can take him with you and he killed the knight
