"You know that it''s very funny how you remember almost all of the details and yet you can''t remember the name of the boy that taught you how to use this?" Jean spoke while chuckling. I only looked at him and smile. It keeps me wondering too. With how am I able to remember such occurrence but I can''t remember the name of the boy. I could vividly see his face in my memories but it''s blurred at the same time. I looked at the arrow and smiled. I wonder who that person was? Is he here or somewhere between kingdom''s? I wish to meet him someday. Fondness grew in me as I remembered the words of me saying that we''re going to marry each other. I giggled at how fluffy it was. I wonder if he remembers me or my name but I doubt it because if he did, then he''d already came searching for me throughout the years that have passed.

    I shook my head and remembered that I am not here to talk about puppy love and other stuff. I came here to train and do things to enhance my skills. I looked at Jean and he immediately knew that I was back on training mode as he stepped back and commanded the system to go in clash training simulation. A barrier started to form on some parts of the room and the lights went off.. After a while, the lights came back on with a whirring sound and then I was in a foreign place. It was filled with plants and huge tree''s.

    I walked and assessed the surrounding which was very eerily quiet. There were some strange sounds that I haven''t heard in my life. I walked more deeper into the green filled path when I felt something sting me. I groaned and immediately looked at the back of my hand. It was a bee that had stung me. I groaned and just went on with my way. The walk was quiet for the most part until I heard a rumbling. I got my hands on my bow and arrow and looked at my surrounding carefully. After a few minutes, a creature to what is classified as a bear emerged from the trees. It started charging at me so I got my arrow positioned and released it without a second thought.

    The arrow pierced the bear''s chest and it fell immediately to the ground. I thought that it was going to be quiet then but a few lot of foreign creatures started to emerge from the deep woods. My hand this time gripped the spear and the bow on the left hand. I was walking backwards as the numbers of these creatures are beyond my capability to try and fight to be able to survive. I was about to sprint away from these creatures but they started to charge at me in full force. I spotted a tree and immediately climbed high. The animals were clawing it down but fortunately, the tree had a thick foundation so it won''t fall that easily.

    There were about five animals that was surrounding me. I stayed high for a few while until I formulated a plan. There are about two creatures who are far more larger than me so it''d be wise to exterminate them first and deal with the others later. Grabbing my bow, I aimed directly at one of the large creature and released the bow with it aimed straight on the head. I was about to grab another arrow when a voice resonated in my head.

    "Jump. Let go of everything and feel the power in you. Jump and see what awaits you." I opened my eyes and looked at my surrounding but failed to see another person. My eyes widened when I realized as to where did the voice belong to. It was from an the abyss mage. Vivalex. I could feel his presence but I could not pin as to where the exact location is. I was contemplating whether to just jump and trust the mage or go with my plan. I gave everything up within a second and jumped to where the animals where and shouted;

    "Fuck the gods!"

    I felt my body falling in a very slow motioned. I could feel my veins burning and something felt new in me. I opened my eyes and saw my hands glowing while. I felt a surge of energy in me which made me beyond excited. I positioned myself and when I did reached the ground, my hand touched it first before my feet did. A huge explosion was heard in the room as the animals were sent flying to nowhere. I looked up and saw that I was no longer in the same place. The barriers were shattered and some parts of it were still attached to the floor as the rest were already on the floor. Then I realized that the simulator was broken. My breath was ragged as I stood up heaving. I looked at my hands and saw faint electric traces on them. My eyes went to meet Jean''s surprised one. He was on his feet, his eyes wide and mouth hanged ajar. A smile started to creep on my face as the same thing happened on his.

    "Oh my fucking god!" Jean exclaimed as he jumped from where he was at ran towards me. I looked at him with teary eyes and with a face that couldn''t believe that this was happening. My arms welcomed him for the embrace he was going for.

    "You did it! You did it your majesty! You fucking did it!" He said as his hug was just as tight like the sincerity of happiness in his voice. Tears then started to fall from eyes as I started to embrace him tightly. This is really happening. The day that I''ve been waiting for has come. I don''t care if it was because of that mage as the only thing that is important at the moment is that I''ve got my powers. I buried my face on his shoulder before I wailed in happiness.

    "I have my powers, Jean! I have them!" I could feel his tears seeping through the fabric of my clothing and I reckoned that the same thing is happening to mine. We were both crying from happiness but I was the one who was practically screaming from happiness. Whatever I had to resort to to get to this day was worth it.

    "Supreme, the boy''s powers has awakened." The misty and invisible wind of the void made the hair on the man who was sitting on a throne which was positioned in the center of a burning pit. He looked at the boy who was kneeling in front of him with an evil smirk. He got onto his feet he looked at his surrounding with a smile.

    "Finally. The long wait is over at last." The man said before laughing evilly. Vivalex had his head hanged low still as he was trembling in fear. He was in front of the presence of the man who can destroy and consume all things. The man with no heart. The man who lives for the taste of suffering and despair. The man that caused the great fall of the gods. The man from the void.

    "You have done your part very well Vivalex. I am impressed. Now return to that realm and make sure he wins that clash. You will be waiting for my return when the grand clash ends. I''m going to make my return after they honor their ancestors who has long thought that they ended me. I ended their gods and I shall end the world that they created now." Vivalex bowed his head on the floor, his face touching the cold floor before he stood up and faced the devil himself.

    "I shall head on now as it is my pleasure to follow such order from the highest and supreme being. I shall wait in agony for your return and watch in amazement as you destroy their world, making everything that they''ve created crumble." Vivalex mustered before he bowed his head and disappeared.

    The supreme smiled as he released a huge sigh. His eyes glimmered with the thirst for war and despair. He sat on his throne with his head resting on his hands. He looked at his surrounding with a new expression as he usually stare at the fast sea of fire with a bored look but now his gaze was filled with thrill that his eyes almost held real fire inside them. He looked at his white and pail hands before he summoned a paper that had a very important signature on it. His smile grew even wider as he could feel the presence of the owner of such signature.

    "All it took was you and your signature for me to step back into where I should be. Smiles shall be swept away, cheers shall disappear like the day and hope shall vanish in the land where all must pay."
