Chapter 4

'Who are you.... No scratch that, what are you" the voice asked shakily

Just like a broken dam the smile on his face expanded to a wide arc to be plastered on his face.

In every game Isreal had ever played, he was dreaded as an absolute monster.

"I am but a mortal seeking enlightenment,.just like you, my father and my ancestors before me" Isreal said

"Damn, that sounded so cool, I never knew this is how cool those Chinese side characters feel, I feel so OP right now." Isreal thought but kept his face cold and expressionless outwardly.

He might be a vicious person,but he is still a young adult at the end of it all.

The voice took a deep sigh and said, let's test your will next.

'for this stage of the test, you would have to re-live the moment when you were scared the most in the entire world'. The voice was anticipating all that was about to happen as a door was open, step in and face your demons or be eaten by them'. The voice said in a single breath.

As Isreal stepped in, the voice began talking to himself.

' I'm sorry perses, I guess I can't what you said was wrong, thus, this legacy might be gone.' If another God witnessed this they might be totally dumbfounded to see a crying titan.

As Isreal stepped into the room, his sight was shown a futuristic city. He kept moving forward to explore the city until he was about to hit a person and apologized.

"I'm sorry...."

Just as herealized that he phased through the person, he started dancing through all of them....

(A/N: And touch those b****s even though he phased through it)

" what is my mission here then.

He heard the voice once again 'A tear drop must not fal from your eye as you watch this, and do not try to interfere with the process in any way'

As the voice stopped speaking the scene changed to one of Isreal playing his first live online rpg game Archon (call to duty ) , he was playing against the world acclaimed best known as the undefeated.

The mysterious voice was dumbfounded the more the scene played out, even Isreal could not stop himself from laughing because that was his first loss in gaming, Isreal was truly scared of losing at that moment, he almost lost it due to a bet he made with lily. It was the match that made lily come to peaks workshop and the only match he has ever lost

He promised lily to never lose again if she did join his workshop, although the was attracted to his gaming style, his honesty won her over at that moment.

The mysterious voice quickly stopped the scene cause it was embarrassed due to Isreal laughing at it sarcastically.

With a perfect Oscar winning performance Isreal decided to start trembling just to get back at the voice due to its overconfidence.

The voice decided to be the magnanimous one and cleared it's throat. ' your next trial would be that of enlightenment, you need to find legacy that suits you, and your enlightenment would be judged based on the results of your epiphany'.

As the voice finished it's speech an holographic panel showed in Isreal's face.

{Quests}

A lost legacy

Objective: Find the legacy of perses

Penalty: none

Reward: epiphany on destruction

"Well that's new, it does align with my goals though" Isreal chuckled.

The entire scenery of where he was changed and he found in front of a giant golden door .

As he pushed the doors, he found himself in front of many doors, each with a letter and image that is almost unrecognizable on them.

Just as he wanted to choose he found himself in drawn to two doors.

Both doors had no color but had the letter B and R respectively, he felt that the images on both doors had a resemblance to a raven and a butterfly.

Isreal pondered on which doors to enter cause he was equally being pulled by each door almost as if both of them didn't want to let him go.

After some minutes of soliloquizing, he decided to enter the door with Raven symbol on it, because...

(A/N: he chose randomly what were you expecting)

As he entered the door he found himself in a labyrinth of some sort, he took the first step just to see that the labyrinth changed its internal map.

(Multitudes of curses later)

He got to the end of it and found himself in an open space with no direction, but, a single pull which he followed.

As he got to the end he saw another white,red and black door.

And right below the entrance he saw a question.

~What is true destruction~

"Another underestimation of my glorious and perfect self" Isreal thought aloud

And he replied.....

~it is the beginning of all things~

As he answered the white door opened and the quest popped up in his face

"What the hell" Isreal berated the voice.

'young people are indeed impatient' the voice replied sarcastically.

Just as he was about to continue scolding the voice he froze and fell into a trance

He was shown death in more that one way, but at the end he still felt it was his powerlessness.

Time and time again, he died , until he felt himself killing, Massacring villages,towns cities, countries, planets and so on.

Even when he felt it was enough, the vision never stopped, until he realized that the essence of the trance was to survive, he recalled it all, he just had to see the essence of destruction, since that's what it is all about.

"This game is really scary, but it's destruction would be from the gift it gave me" Isreal declared.

With that all said he just sat down on the floor and decided to kill a frog. He found out that there was only the aura of death not destruction, he decided to obliterate it instead.

And as he was about to laugh for his accomplishment the illusion was broken, he was greeted by a shocked voice acting calm and mysterious.

' you have proven yourself mortal, and the universe recognizes your achievement. Your reward will be granted as you truly deserve it.' The voice was about to continue until Isreal calmy said

"Why..... Why did you break the illusion?" His tone was slowly increasing but before he could continue his thoughts were interrupted by ....

'Perses blessings... I guess I'm the main character of this game... I forgive you exalted for all the stress you gave me!!" Isreal exclaimed loudly.

' now would you like to be in the forest or town of beginning' the voice asked with a bit if respect in his tone

Isreal decided to go on serious mode too and replied cooly 'town'

'Bye then .... May we never meet again even if fate allows it' said the voice.
