What if a person says, "No worries. Life is cheap. Especially mine" and straight jump to death?

***************************************

Somewhere in Upper Realm

.

"Why?" He asks when he sees his beloved stab him from behind.

"I'm sorry. I already trying but, his offer is much more tempting to me." says the wife.

"I see. So, you too want this cultivation. However,... Never mind, thank you for everything you've done until now. Now, you've been free." says the husband. He slowly closed his eyes and falls to the ground.

Even his wife betrays him, but the woman cries while others were slowly walking to them. Just before they got the corpse, suddenly, it disappeared in front of their eyes. They searched the body, afraid the whole world knows about this, but…

.

.

It's gone… It's like he has never been there in the first place.

***************************************

"Did you got his body?" ask a person.

"Yes, I never thought his wife would betray him…"

"Me too, but greedy corrupted them. We don't have much time. Everyone has been killed. Hopefully, he can return to this realm & destroy them." says a person. He summons back the soul, regresses the corpse to a womb, puts back the soul, and send him to Lower Realm. However, he has paid an enormous price to do this. Suddenly he throws up a massive amount of blood — his hair changes from black to white. To revive a person, he'll need to pay with his life force.

"!!! Are you okay?" Ask another person. He quickly helps another person.

"I'm fine; I will be in closed meditation for a very long time. You should watch him from far and provide everything that he needed. Don't forget he needs to do the inheritance trial during his final reincarnation. And most importantly, he must decide what he wants to do all by himself. You must not guide or influence him. Even he doesn't want to return, it's his choice," He walks away after he says that.

Another person clenched his fist and swore that he would make his master returned here and reclaim his authority. He'll walk away and take a look at the lower realm for the last time.

"Master, please stay safe."

.

That day, the whole Upper Realm shook when they heard a piece of news.

The Sword God passes away.

Their protector, benevolent emperor, an invincible existence that's never afraid when facing an unbeatable enemy, dies. He, with his motto, "To me, life is cheap, especially mine.". Together with his beloved sword slaughtered the whole army of Demons, slay the Demon Emperor, destroy the entire Demon Realm, pass away.

However,... Little did they know that his close confidante kills their emperor with his wife act as an accomplice. They kill him because they want to get his cultivation manual. It's because of this cultivation, and he becomes so strong, able to do something impossible to do by any cultivators.

Unfortunately, even if they have the manual, they'll be unable to cultivate due to impossible requirement:-

I) The user will be tested on Dao Heart by tempered with millions of trials set by The Heaven in every death he has gone.

II) The user has to die 99 times.

Such a problematic requirement, it's impossible for any cultivator to cultivate. Who wants to discard the cultivation that they have spent so much time? Only broken people will do it.

Unfortunately for them, the Sword God is such an existence. Now, he's been reincarnating for 98th times.

***************************************

Demon Realm (1 million years after the death of Sword God)

A tall mountain made from a countless corpse in the middle of a blood sea that made from them. Every single corpse only has one injury; the head is separate from the body with a single slash. From demon soldier to Demon Emperor, each of them only has a single injury.

On the top of the mountain, a sword that baths with blood are stabbing on a single colossal demon. On top of it, a man is sitting on and leaning on the sword. Panting, he takes out a cigarette and starts smoking while seeing the sunset.

"What a nice day for smoking," The man murmured.

"Master/Onii-chan" Two voices are heard from the sword. Two spirits come out from the sword. One of them is sitting on the man's lap and another one leaning on the man's shoulder.

"Restia, Est" The man finishes his smoking and caresses the two sword spirits. Both spirits close their eyes gleefully when the man caresses their heads. He'll do that until the moon rises. He wakes his sword spirit from their slumber.

"Ok, it's time for me to move on. I'll be going, Restia, Est. Take care of yourself. I'm sure you will have fun with the next inheritor" The man slowly dispersed like a particle. On his face, the brightest smile can be seen.

"Goodbye, my lovely sword spirit." The man becomes particles and flying towards to sky.

"Goodbye, Yulan" Both sword spirits waving their hands.

.

Millennium Years War.

A war between races against demons that causing the whole multiverse changes to its core. Many Gods and Sovereigns fell during this era. Creation God, Humanity God, Imperial Sovereign, Beast Emperor, and all names that once shaken the world with their strength fall one by one.

Before the war begins, somewhere at the End of the World, a Wall that separates both light and dark sides have crumbled. It happens when the Progenitor God, the guardian of the Wall, has mysteriously died. The trusted aide of the Progenitor God, Imperial Emperor, quickly sends an emergency signal to the light sides.

The light sides summons a conference of all races. From the weakest humans until the most potent Creation God answers the summons and joins the conference. After a few hours, they have made a decision to wage war against the dark side.

An army of countless races and gods has entered the war against the dark sides. The battle lasted nine hundred years. Until a human received an inheritance from his discovery in some unknown ruins.

"Primordial Chaos of Genesis and Omega"

The man cultivates the inheritance for ten years, and he has reached an unfathomable level. From the legacy, he created two swords with two spirits from light and dark sides and integrated them in each sword.

A vorpal sword with red trimmings on the edge and purple additions along the center of the blade. The Darkness Spirit integrated with the sword, Restia

A long straight sword with a silvery blade that has turquoise and gold trimmings along with a golden hilt and crossguard. The grip has a turquoise gem. A light spirit integrated with the sword, Est.

The man enters the war with his two swords and slays countless demons. All race who seeing the situations has blood boiled. With the renewed vigor, they entered the battlefield once again. During this situation, the man has been given a nicknamed.

"The Demon Slayer"

He slaying demons everywhere in the multiverse and ensures the safety of the races. The man entered the Wall at the End of The World and sealed the wall. The multiple races and gods helplessly watching the man sealing the wall and pray for the man's safety.

***************************************

A few years after, a pure chaos light is shining to the sky from the Wall. This situation is seen by every single existence on the light and dark side. On the light side, they bowed towards the light, revered, cries, sorrows, and grief. On the dark side, anger, swearing for revenge clearly seen within their eyes.

On this day, The Demon Slayer has his final breath. After hundred years slaying the demons, the brave human, the sole inheritor of Primordial Chaos of Genesis and Omega, has passed away. The light side has given him a befitting title that will be remembered forever.

"The Supreme Sword"

Tuatha Dé Danaan

Third-Party P.O.V

.

"Clang!!!"

"Clang!!!"

"Zzzztt!!!"

.

"Boom!!!"

.

A series of metal clashing happens between a man using his katana and a robot wielding an enormous greatsword. Even the difference in height between them is vast, yet the man can contend with the colossal robot easily. The landscape of the area changes due to their battle. A few small mountains that surrounded the area flattened. The green forest becomes a desert.

Unfortunately, the struggle is far yet from over. Both sides will clash until one of them down. The man who wears a complete set of uniforms before the fight only left his torn black pants and a tattered shirt on his body. Yet, he is calm facing the robot, black Deus-Excellion, Ishmelga.

'This human is strong than I thought' the black Deus-Excellion, Ishmelga think. It's using speed to overwhelm the human, but the human in front of him is even faster than it. No, it appears that this human is overwhelming him in a considerable gap. Why? Because the human looks calm, and there is no hesitation, fear, and no single sweat or panting hears from him.

'This is not a human. He is a monster' Ishmelga mentally thinking.

.

On a few Selge from the clashing site, a group is watching the battle. They can't enter the contest because this is a battle beyond their level. Besides, actually, they just had a struggle with Ishmelga, yet they lost. If not for the human that battle Ishmelga right now, they may die.

"Ryan-nii" Estelle murmured.

.

"Crack!!!"

Ryan's katana break.

.

"No!!!" Claire and Klaudia cry out.

"Instructor Ryan!!!" Juna, Kurt, and Musse also shrill.

.

Ryan jumps back a few Arge and extends his hand forward. Blue energy followed by lightning suddenly appeared on his side and shot towards Ishmelga. It was trying to dodge it, but it's too late. The power is also enormous, and Ishmelga is too slow to avoid it. Ryan takes out a dual gun and begins his battle with Ishmelga again.

The battle lasts another hour before the gun broke. Ryan takes out dual tonfa, the tonfa broke, he takes out lance, the lance broke. He takes out all his weapons that available one by one and uses it until it broke. Yet... The person itself still calm.

'He is waiting... For what?' Ishmelga thinking after seeing Ryan calmness, even all his weapon destroys one by one. Suddenly it saw Ryan grin. Ishmelga feels something is wrong, but what?

.

Ryan clasps his hands together, five small yellow orbs with tails emerge between his clasping hands move above his head before forming a circle of five. Ryan then slams his hands downward, sending the spheres into the ground. A bright light generated from the sky above Ishmelga. Suddenly, five tall and thick pillars, which are connected by chains, emerge, and pin Ishmelga to the ground. Ishmelga is screaming.

***************************************

MC P.O.V

"Bakudō #75; Gochūtekkan (Way of Binding no.75; Five-Pillared Iron Weight)"

Ishmelga grounded with five large pillar pins on him.

"Do you think you already won, human?" Angered Ishmelga when he's been pinned to the ground...

"This is the beginning of calamity."

"Not even you can stop it now!!!" Says it angrily.

I calm down, close my eyes, and think. There must be a way to destroy his soul…

There must be…

!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

.

That's it! I have two ways. One is using my understanding of space and time law while another one is... Sacrificial. But from the looks of the situation right now, I more lenient towards the earlier. Bah! Better do both of them. Less worrying about it.

Even I have to pay a huge price to do both of that, but I still can do it. I take a breath and meditate for a moment. One by one, my memories of my beloved, my family & my friends resurface. How nice if I can be with them forever. Somehow, I regret I did not spend the time with my fiancées. Unfortunately, there is no if.

.

.

'I'm sure Klaudia & Claire will be angry. I'm sorry.'

.

.

'I'm even sure everyone will angry at me too, but… This is the only way I have to protect all of you.'

.

.

'Mother, I'm sorry for being unfilial to you.'

.

.

'I'm sorry, dad, for always causing trouble for you.'

.

.

'I'm sorry, Estelle & Renne, for being unable to pamper both of you anymore.'

.

.

'I'm sorry, my juniors because I wasn't able to train you guys anymore. Honestly, it was fun to tortu- erm, training you guys.'

.

.

'I'm so sorry.'

.

.

'After all, life is cheap. Especially mine'

.

.

'If we were to meet again in another life, please treat me kindly, okay?'

.

.

I open my eyes and see Ishmelga. After that, I was ambling towards Ishmelga. Without I realized, the twin crystal on the necklace on my neck starting to shine. It was given by someone unknown during my journey outside Zemurian Continent.

.

"Hahahaha, are you gonna give up your life?" Ishmelga happily laughs, seeing me walk toward him.

.

'I don't mind using my life as a price for the peace that will be inherited by my future descendants. It's a low price compared to what you will do if you still alive.' I mentally think.

.

However, that's where my mistake is. It's a low price for me, but it's too heavy for my fiancées, family, and close friends. They will lament and mourn me for a very long time.

.

"Ryan, why…" Klaudia wants to go, but she can't move. Even Claire was trying to stand, but it's useless. Both of them too tired.

.

"Ryan-nii, no!!!" Estelle and Renne were screaming. Everyone is trying to move and yelling to me, but no avail. The same goes for my dad.

"Hahahahaha… Foolish humans!!" Ishmelga was laughing. I'm starting to chant and raised my finger to the sky.

.

.

.

"Seeping crest of turbidity." Suddenly the ground is shaking. People in whole Erebonia can sense it.

.

"Arrogant vessel of lunacy" The sky suddenly darkens.

.

"Boil forth and deny!" The winds shrill and cold. The trees flow here and there.

.

"Grow numb and flicker!" Lightning suddenly emerges from the sky and strikes non-stop. Ishmelga surprised and felt fear for the first time.

.

"Disrupt sleep!" A black aura emerges in our surroundings.

.

"Crawling queen of iron!" Animals run away from clashing sites as far as possible.

.

"Eternally self-destructing doll of mud!" The group of people who watch this battle falls and feel fear. The aura is like trying to kill them.

.

"Unite!"

.

"Repulse!"

.

"Fill with soil and know...

.

.

your own powerlessness!"

.

.

"Hadō #90; Kurohitsugi (Way of Destruction no.90; Black Coffin)"

.

.

A black aura radiated from me. It envelops Ishmelga with a mighty torrent of gravity before taking the form of multiple boxes of black energy. Each of them topped off with cross-shaped spears before they multiply and close in on Ishmelga and enclose it in a huge box. It was unable to move due to restrain by Bakudō #75.

Ishmelga falls to the ground after the huge box disappears. The massive greatsword it wielding destroy. Both his feet crush into pieces. Everyone is happy to see Ryan won the battle. However, ...

.

"Hahahahahahahahahahaha!!!"

"Hahahahahahahahahahaha!!!"

"Hahahahahahahahahahaha!!!"

.

"!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" Everyone surprised when hearing it.

"I know what is your intention this time. Even if you successfully destroy this body and my soul. However, it's impossible to destroy my whole soul that is full of the malice of people of this continent. It still can be saved, and I can run away from here. There's nothing you can do about it. I can wait a hundred more years to do this same thing again. However, mortals, can you? Hahahahaha!!!"

Everyone frowns when hearing this. It means everything that I do is useless. This guy can still run away and create a war in an unknown future. However,

.

.

.

"I know about it." I start to talk. 'I already know that I have to do that, but seeing this bastard so happily tell everything to me is kind of irritating.'

"!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" Everyone surprises.

"All the battle I've been with you until now is merely a small plot from my original plan."

"What!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

.

Suddenly eight black holes with purple outlines which emit spiritual energy in the space surrounding Ishmelga tightly. Five massive pillars from before still exist.

.

"Hmm??? W-What is this? What are you want to do? Why I-I can't get out of this body. Let me go!!! I'll kill you, humans, let me go!!!"Ishmelga is screaming while trying to release itself from the holes.

.

I slowly walk to Ishmelga and put my hand on its head. At the same time, I take a look at my family, friends, and lover. I smile at them while whispered.

.

.

.

"Congratulations...

.

.

.

and Goodbye"

While everyone is screaming & running to stop me, I chant a word. A red aura comes out from my body. It shines throughout the whole area of Tuatha Dé Danaan.

.

.

.

"Hadō #96; Ittō Kasō (Way of Destruction no.96; Single Blade Cremation)"

*This is one of the premonitions that will happen, anything is possible.
