6 Chapter 5 - Offer 2
In the world of Earthland, a place where humans have the mystical ability to use magic and perform unbelievable things. Those who are proficient in the use of magic are called mages and these people are typically seen in a place called Guilds.
It is a place for mercenaries where they can acquire a quest and be rewarded for their hard work. There are three types of guilds, namely the normal one, the Dark guild which defies the laws, and the independent guild which could be considered as an unofficial guild.
There are numerous guilds, however one of the top guilds, the Fairy Tail Guild located in the kingdom of Fiore. The building of the Fairy Tail was an imposing structure consisting of three floors and incorporating several architectonic styles: it took on a shape reminiscent of a pagoda, with each floor being smaller than the one below it and sitting on the latter's roof.
The roofs also bore great resemblance to those of real pagoda, consisting of extremely long, arched tiles lined up one after the other and possessing simple curved protrusions jutting upwards on the building's angles.
On the highest roof, topping the summit of the building, sat a simple, round-pointed dome, highly reminiscent of those seen on Arabian buildings, which bore a flag on its point.
The roof below the one with the dome, the middle one, housed a large banner with a symbol that appeared to be a fluttering fairy, held up by a pair of vertical poles.
The building's large entrance was again Arabian in design, with its shape being reminiscent of that of the dome on the summit, and above it was the guild's name, topped by a protruding, stylized heart shape and flanked by a pair of carved fairies.
Stylized heart shapes were also visible on the frames of the numerous, large pentagonal windows located on each floor, with the top floor housing smaller, arched windows partially covered by banners.
Inside was similar to a large lunch hall, and mainly consisted of wood, possessing a parquet floor and a mezzanine held up by wood beams overlooking it.
Several long benches and the related tables stretched across its length with a bar managed by a white haired woman dressed in an elegant outfit giving a calm smile to the people sitting on the long benches. There was also a board that was filled with quest papers beside the bar.
At one particular seat was a young woman with long, scarlet hair and brown eyes. She has creamy white skinned and tender lips along with a slender, voluptuous figure. Her attire consists of a silver armor with a golden cross on the right side covering a fairy tail mark, a blue skirt, black boots, and diamond shaped silver earrings.
She emits a regal aura that was in contrast to her gleefully eating a strawberry cheesecake. The people around her found it adorable but were afraid to voice their opinion. The young woman was known as Erza Scarlet and had a strict personality that everyone feared her wrath.
However, if one can describe what her past is, then it could be said to have been filled with insecurities and trauma. As a child, the place she lived in was raided by a group of fanatics that worshiped the being known as 'Zeref'.
They had enslave children including Erza to build a structure known as Tower of Heaven' where they were tortured to work until one day of their escape but this had many tragedies had happened. Namely the betrayal of her close friend and the death of the person who had told her about the guild known as Fairy Tail.
She had deep regret in being unable to save her friends even after getting stronger and felt her strength was useless when those people are forever gone.
However, her newfound strength is vital for the new home that she finds herself growing up in. The Fairy Tail guild were everyone and willing to protect them at the cost of her life.
'Huh? What is this?'
After finishing her meal, Erza noticed a small device on the table and knew that no one had been in her area since she would have noticed considering the level of her overall strength.
She picked up the device and it suddenly glowed displaying a set of text that intrigued her interest.
[Do you want power?]
[Do you want to know your true origin and fate?]
[Do you wish to have the power to protect those that you love?]
[Then come and join the Omni-Dimensional Chat Group!]
[ If you agree, press [Accept] if not [Decline] ]
Erza read the text and was skeptical at what the message said. She felt interest with the offers as her own intuition is telling her something interesting is going to happen if she joins.
'The power to protect those that I love??'
These simple words sold her as she knows that despite having high rank did not mean she was capable of protecting everyone. Erza instinct told her to accept and pressed [Accept] expecting something extraordinary to happen but nothing, nothing happened.
What happened next was that the device displayed yet another text.
[Congratulation for joining the Omni-Dimensional Chat Group]
[ Using the Omni-Dimensional Chat Group, you have the chance to travel to another Verse, otherwise known as World for simplicity. Become a Wizard Saint or even a God]
She felt confused about what the text said. Another world? Erza became more intrigued by what this [Omni-Dimensional Chat Group] has to offer.
=============
The mountain range that surrounded a vast plateau of grass laid an ancient kingdom where it once roamed by the race of a tall creature known as 'Titan' which could be as tall as 2 to 3 meters.
This place was called the Talosheim, named after the Sun Collisi, Talos and was known as the capital of the sun until the invasion of the opposing kingdom 200 years ago had made the place into such a state.
However, it had been recently rebuilt by the current king of the newly created kingdom using a mysterious and foreign form of magic.
[A/N: Suggest reading "Death mage who doesn't fourth time" as it has too much rich world building]
The once broken houses had been rebuilt and returned to their former self. However, those who inhabit the place were not something you'd see in a normal kingdom.
It was filled with undead creatures having their flesh roasting yet no horrid smell playing a game or Reversi with creatures that had a lion head having a thick layer of manes and muscular body. The most striking thing is their long arms that reach the ground.
There were also black goblins, Anubis type creatures and black pig orcs playing the same games. This creature was also joined in by normal looking people akin to humans with only difference was their gray skin and red tribal markings.
The race of the humanoid lion and gray skinned women were called ghouls which was unusual thinking how a ghoul looked like.
'I don't know what to do right now.'
Inside the kingdom castle within the king's bedroom was young child no older than
5 years was currently lost in his thoughts. He had white hair like a man of a lion and porcelain face that was scarcely pale white that his emotionless face made him appear to be dead if not for his chest going up and down to show he was alive.
He had striking crimson red and purple eyes inherited from his parents which were the race of Dark elf and Vampire.
This young child was none other newly crowned king of Talosheim, The Eclipse King. It was supposed to be the sun king but all the citizen were undead and lived mostly in the night
Many would ponder why such a child at a young age would be a king? The reason for this is because the child would be called a Reincarnator, A person who lived more than one lifetime and had their memories intact.
This young boy's life was grimmed having lived in two worlds where both were a living hell. In his first world, Earth, he was known as Amamiya Hiroto who had been abused by his adopted uncle and his family where he had to find a way to live on his own and was neglected in experiencing things like birthday's and normal children should experience.
He was always alone and tried his best to live normally until the young boy decided to save up some money for a school field trip that ended in disaster killing him and a hundred other people.
The young boy gave up when he appeared in a white room surrounded by the same people who died. Everyone felt despair while he remained calm with his emotion having already been dead was interrupted by a voice of god.
The god of reincarnation offered them a new life with cheat-like ability for compensation. Everyone gains their own ability except for the young boy who has been mistaken for another guy.
In the end, he reincarnate in another life that was much worse than his past life becoming a guinea pig for torturous experiment for 20 years until finally managing to escape and exact his revenge.
When he was about to gain freedom was quickly gone down by his old classmate who he thought was there to save him. Unfortunately, none recognized him thinking he was nothing but an escape lab rat that instantly killed him.
He appeared once again in front of the god of Reincarnation who revealed it was nothing but a tutorial for the next world they would reincarnate. However the young boy did not care for the reason for their reincarnation and vowed to kill everyone but this upset the god due to his plan and gave him a curse before sending him into the new world called Lambda.
It was a world where countless other races lived and Status screen was a common thing similar to a game. In this world, The young boy experiences the love and praise of a parent despite only having his mother, Darcia.
When everything was going smoothly, having found happiness was quickly trampled upon when a few months later his beloved mother was captured after being labeled as witch and burned to death. After every trauma, the young boy vows for a way to revive his mother and kill those that wrong him.
'Huh? What is this?'
The young boy spotted a device on the desk beside the bed and used magic to hover the object towards him. Upon touching it the screen opened and showed a text.
[Do you want power?]
[Do you want the power for vengeance?]
[Do you wish to have the power to protect those that you love and revive those you've lost?]
[Then come and join the Omni-Dimensional Chat Group!]
[ If you agree, press [Accept] if not [Decline] ]
(E/N: As there really isn't anything to edit, and as this is just an introduction to the characters of sorts, it kinda makes me feel like an asshole to give credits to myself saying I edited the chapter but yeah, I hope you are still enjoying the fic. :))
