Chapter Nine - Auf Wiedersehen
It's been five years and I finally maxed my Blacksmith job. I created the most perfect sword for me that no-one else can master, I call it, Moonlight. It's the perfect sword for my Moon-type Magic and my Crescent Skills.
Enough about that, now that I have finished my training.
It's time for me to take my leave. Miyazaki, Hentri and Emilla are practically my family, but five years have passed and today is the day I leave.

Madaren: Thank you so much sensei for training me all this time. I promise I will use your teachings for the greater good.
Miyazaki: We won't be gone for long.
Madaren: When will we see eachother again?
Emilia: Our spirits will be inside of your heart forever.
Hentri: You won't get rid of us that fast.
*All of a sudden Miyazaki, Hentri and Emilia start fading into a yellow mist*
Madaren: Sensei's!
*The yellow mist goes into my chest and I start feeling what feels like eternal peace*
Madaren: What's happening!
[THE SPIRITS OF THE THREE MONARCHS WILL FOREVER LIVE INSIDE OF YOU]
What! Three Monarchs? Live inside of me?
Is that what Emilia meant?
*I sit in a deep silence*
.
.
.
Well now I feel better knowing I'll be with them always.
I didn't know they were called The Three Monarchs though. They must have been powerful back in their world.
[NEW CHALLENGE]
[BATTLE EXPERIENCE TRAINING FOR SEVEN YEARS]
GOD DAMN IT.
[TELEPORTING USER INTO]
[SEVEN DEADLY REAPERS]
Where am I again? Man, I can't catch a break. This looks to be like… Hell?
WHY AM I IN HELL? Pools of lava, burning souls, is that kanye west? Man he doesn't deserve it.
[OBJECTIVE, DEFEAT A
SEVEN DEADLY REAPER
EACH YEAR AND OBTAIN BATTLE EXPERIENCE]
I have about seven years to prepare to kill a Seven Deadly Reaper? They must be powerful beings.
7 YEARS LATER
So fucking weak. The damn system forced me to wait a year to kill each Seven Deadly Reaper. The most pain I've ever felt fighting one is just the emotional pain of not seeing my mother's face.
And wow I have tried contacting Miyazaki, Hentri and Emilia but it's like they're in a deep sleep.
Now it's time to fight the last Seven Deadly Reaper and this Reaper specialises in Wrath. He better be good I swear.
[LEVEL 500 REAPER OF WRATH]
He has to be at least 50 metres tall. He looks like the living embodiment of evil, but that'll make it easier to kill him without sympathy.
Reaper: YOU ARE LUCKY TO HAVE MADE IT THIS FAR. BUT YOU LUCK ENDS NOW.
*The Reaper throws a spell of fire meteors concentrated with high amounts of chaos magic. Each meteor causes destruction big enough to turn a entire village to ash*
These meteors are so far the biggest problem I had to deal with, Finally! SOME FUN!
Madaren: I MUST THANK YOU REAPER.
Reaper: ?
Madaren: I HAVEN'T HAD THIS MUCH FUN IN SEVEN YEARS. BUT NOW I HAVE SOMEWHERE TO BE SO I'LL MAKE THIS QUICK. [YOO STYLE: SWIFT FLOW]
*I dodged each meteor like a leaf moving in the wind*
I loved using that move. But now I'll have to finish him.
Madaren: [OMNIDASH]
*I dashed through the air and landed on top of his skull*
I remember using this move on the ghoul. To think that was 12 years ago. Time really moves fast huh.
*I jump off his skull and upside I look at the back of his neck*
I'll have to see if my duo finisher move can cut this big.
Madaren: [DUOFINISHER]
.
.
.
The Reaper falls on his knees, I jump off and land on the ground*
I did it!
???: DID YOU REALLY THINK THAT WAS IT
Huh
*I look behind me*
It's a man around 7'2, 300 something pounds. Red skin and horns, Some clothing covering his waist and he's shirtless. He looks like the devil.
LUCIFER: ALLOW ME TO INTRODUCE MYSELF, YOU MAY CALL ME LUCIFER.
W-what. So he is the devil! I don't know why but I feel sick. I know if I fight him now I'll die. I just know.
LUCIFER: NOW THAT YOU KILLED JUST A FEW PAWNS OF MINE, HOW DO YOU FEEL? POWERFUL, MAYBE. *EVIL LAUGHING* THOSE REAPERS WERE BARELY EVEN SOLDIERS OF MINE.
I wasn't even fighting anyone of his strongest for the past seven years!
Madaren: GUESS THAT'S WHY THEY WERE SO EASY TO KILL.
LUCIFER: WANNA SEE IF I'M EASY TO KILL.
[MONARCH OF ALL EVIL: LUCIFER]
LEVEL: 1500
I feel like puking now. I-im nearly falling to my knees because of this pressure I feel.
LUCIFER: DON'T LET THE NUMBER FOOL YOU.
THAT'S JUST THE LEVEL CAP. I'M WAY STRONGER THAN THIS.
*LUCIFER Rushes towards me, faster than I can see*
I can feel my life flashing before my eyes and I know why. I'm going to die-
[NEAR UNBEARABLE TRAINING COMPLETED]
[TELEPORTING BACK TO HOME]
Madaren: AGHH! AHH!
Mom: Hey hey sweetie calm down.
Madaren: *Panting from fear* Mom? Where am I?
Mom: You're at the hospital dear. I found you collapsed on the floor back home.
Madaren: Oh *Still panting*
Mom: What happened dear?
I- I'm back home. FINALLY! It's been 12 years since I've seen my mom's face. I can finally live life normally now and.
Mom: Dear?
Madaren: Mom, how long have I been here?
Mom: About two hours.
That makes sense since every year is an hour back in that other world, so mom's shift as a nurse ended ten hours ago and she found me and took me to the hospital and I have been here for two hours, otherwise twelve years.
Mom: Madaren I was so worried. When I came home and found you on the floor I thought of-
*Mom starts crying.*
Mom: I thought of that day when I found your father on the floor.
Madaren: Mom I'm so sorry, I promise it will never happen again.
*A nurse comes in and performs a checkup*
Nurse: Ma'am I don't know how to tell you this but. It seems that he is in peak condition right now.
Mom: H-how?
Nurse: His vitals are perfect, his muscles seem to be in great shape and his organs are performing absolutely fine. Ma'am has your son awakened?
Mom: I don't think so?
Nurse: I'll bring the doctor.
Mom: What is she talking about?
Madaren: I think the reason I passed out is because i awakened mom.
Mom: Well do you have any mana?
Madaren: I think I do.
Doctor: Hi there, My name is Dr. Schultz. And I'm here to perform a test to see if your son has awakened.
Mom: Go right ahead.
*The doctor opens a container*
Doctor: Alright then. This right here is an Anti-Mana flower found rarely in A-Rank Dungeons. I will give you this flower and if the flower glows in any way it means that it is draining your mana and then we will know if you have awakened.
Nurse: That seems a little dangerous we do have another-
Doctor: Shh, Now take it boy.
This doctor is obviously unhinged because there are other safer ways to find mana in a human but it won't hurt me. I don't want to seem like a asshole but now that
When I'm back home I should get as much attention as possible so I can join a nice guild and pay off the debt.
I'm at least a SS-Rank player right now so it'll be easy.
*I take the flower*
I'll just pour a little mana so it glows extremely bright
*I pour about 0.0050% of my mana inside of the flower, and the flower shines so bright it nearly blinds everybody*
Doctor: MY EYES!!
Nurse: PUT THE FLOWER DOWN.
Mom: My son has awakened! I'm so proud of you.
Only mom would be happy in this situation. And I guarantee if you were looking outside into this room all you would see is white.
*I put the flower down*
Doctor: *panting* Well uhhh, you definitely have awakened so I'll be notifying the International Mana Association.
Mom: Wait. Do you really want to become a hunter sweetie?
Madaren: Yes Mom. I'll be a hunter just like dad.
Mom: But you're only 19.
Madaren: I want to help people and my family at the same time and this is the perfect job to do so.
Mom: well. If this is what you want.
Doctor: Great, I'll be right back at ten.
