" I have gathered everyone for a family meeting for a few reasons. A.
Im bored. B. I figured itd be a good time for us all to discuss the
future since nobody is busy. And C. Im bored. Anyway I want to know
what we are going to be doing after we leave this dimension. "
" Well I dont know about the kids but us four are going to be going
out of the forest to gather experience. I dont really know what we are
doing other than leave the forest. "
" I for one want to do some war stuff. I have been training Lorettas
creations specifically for conquering a few countries. I know Loretta
is also planning something similar with necromancy. Gabrielle your
probably going to raid some royal libraries in pursuit of knowledge,
right? "
" Yep. That means that we all have certain goals except you Solomon. "
" Wait I thought we were all going to be sticking together. "
" Solomon we wil be together for another 500,000 years we are just
going to be splitting up for a couple years every now and then. I
figured we could all do a challenge to see who could complete their
goal first. "
""" Ooo that sounds fun./ Yeah it does./ Kind of, but I stil need
something to do. """
" I dont know what to tell you Solomon. Maybe you can pretend to be a
human and start a mercernary band. "
" OOO thats a great idea Gabby. "
" Alright well since thats everything Im out I want to keep training
my army. "
" Im going to try and use Biological Manipulation on some of my
creatures that I turn into undead, so Im leaving as well. "
After watching Deam and Loretta hurry off Solomon turns to Gabrielles
spot and says.
" Just you and me then Gabby, what do you want to do. "
Unfortunately for him she was already gone.
" Damn, I cant be that boring. "
While thinking that Solomon gets up to go bother his kids.
If someone were two peek into a certain room that looks like a meeting
room for a big corporation, they would see a fearsome buff monkey
writing down what seems like names. For what only he knows.
'' Hhhmmmm what should I call my mercernary group? Heaven Destroying
Demons from Immortal Realm of Heavenly Demons, hhmmm maybe though its
a bit to long. Maybe I could go with Handsome Golden Monkey Fan Group,
nnaaawwww my group will likely have more men then women and I dont
want some ugly buff guys in my fan group. Booty Plunderers, hhhmmmm I
like it, but it sounds more like a pirate group and not a mercernary
group. ''
" I do like the idea of becoming a wealthy theif though. But I really
just dont want to sail around. "
'' I wonder if their is anyway for me to get rich easily while still
haveing the ability to level up. Maybe I could start a bandit group, I
just dont want to have to be around other living creatures except my
family. I could just straight up start theiving, though Ill have to
make some skills good for sneaking and running away. ''
" You know what that sounds great, Im going to become a God of Wealth
and theiving. "
It was with that declaration that the start of a legend that plagued
countless royal families, famous clans, and powerful sects began.
After Solomon decided on his goal he odviously needed some techniques
that will allow him to steal from anyone and from anywhere. Luckily
for him his fathers race gave him a massive advantage in dexterity,
which is vital for any good theif. Solomon figured that since he has
decent dexterity he should start off by making a good escaping skill.
And thats exactly what he did.
Solomon started making his skill based around lightning, since
lightning is a basic part of his being and is something that he will
always be able to rely on no matter where he is. The skill would allow
him to produce the speed and ferocity of lightning with each step.
Solomon already had an amazing understanding of lightning even when
compared to some Gods. But Solomon felt it wasnt enough so he made a
thunder and lightning storm and meditated inside of it for a year.
During that year Solomon gained deep understanding not only in
lightning but also thunder and surprisingly space, or more
specifically vacuum space. ( I was going to try something with wave
lengths here but then I realized Im to stupid to actually apply
physics to a fantasy novel. )
When ever lightning would strike and thunder would boom Solomon would
notice a small time frame in which space would vibrate, weaken, and
then give a small suction toward the surrounding space. Solomon wanted
to figure out why such a phenominon was happening so he spent a
majority of his year comprehending not lightning but space, though he
did put some energy towards lightning just not as much.
This lead to Solomon adding something extra to his escaping technique.
Before the comprhension of space Solomon was going to just focus on
lightnign and speed, but Solomon added something extra his space
insights. The technique evolved from a burst of speed with each step
to teleporting with each step in a manner similar to ground shrinking
decribed in novels from Solomons old life. Of course Solomon didnt get
rid of the lightning aspect of his technique he just added on a
special part.
Solomon didnt know how to evolve his technique any further without
further insights into space or lightning so he created an obsticale
course for practicing his new technique. The obsticale cousre was all
turrain featuring water, ice, dirt, trees, steep walls, floors made of
knives, lava, massive holes, low gravity, snake pits, building, and
many other random and probably uneeded aspects. When he was done with
the course it circled the race track and was three times longer than
This novel''s true home is a different platform. Support the author by finding it there.the race track. When his friends and family saw the course they
thought that Solomon had fianlly been driven insane from the boredom,
and was looking for a way to commit suicide. Though such thoughts
disappeared when Solomon explained the use of the course.
When she found out the use of the course Deam asked if her and her
kids could train, she also asked if she could train some select
individuals from her militia. Loretta also asked to train some of her
upgraded un-dead.
Solomon naturally agreed.
After that he spent 3,000 years training and perfecting his technique.
He would tweak foot movements, change how much Mana he used, he would
even calculate how to flex his muscles. This went on every. Single.
Day. For three thousand years.
One day after Solomon decided he could no longer improve his technique
using such methods Solomon took a walk to relax and take a break.
While he was out walking around Solomon saw Deam who was doing
practice swings, she was very odviously annoyed. Solomon very curious
walked up to ask.
" Deam whats wrong? Why are you so annoyed? "
" NOTHING, IM NOT! "
" Clearly. "
" '' Sigh '' Sorry for snapping. Its just . . . . recently Fear got some
insight into the Dao of War Spear. And then you and your kids have Dao
insights, while Loretta, Gabby, and I as well as our kids have jack
shit. Im just frustrated is all, I cant help it. "
" Deam you do know that I can teach you and everybody else the totem
technique or build yall totems on the Dao of your choice. It might not
be as effective if I do it as opposed to a God but I can connect them
with the universe. "
Deam seemed to pause for a second before she turned to Solomon with
the closet thing to a smile hes ever seen her with.
" REALLY! Thank you thank you thank you! "
Her excitement lasted for a second before she regained her calm
demeanor. Solomon was perfectly happy though as he felt he saw a small
peice of Deams hidden side.
" What kind of totem do you want? I have wade some new tools that will
allow me to be at least 100 times more detailed than my previous
works. "
Deam contemplated for half a minute before she seemed to decide. Her
descision was accompanied by a determined expression.
" I would like a totem of the Dao of One Man Army. This is a Dao that
often occampanies Asuras, I wish to study the Dao and gain the title
in the future. "
" No problem, I have to ask though have you ever actually been in a
war? If so have you been a one woman army? "
" I have been in 357 wars since I turned 100 years old. One Man Army
can be a title gained by anybody who has fought 1v100 or more. I have
decimated an entire army regement of 1000 enemies. "
" Damn, Im genuinely surprised by that. Anyway I have some blood wood
that was soaked by blood during an ancient war. I should get you that
totem in a week. In the mean time can you go around to everybody else
and tell them im taking commisions on totems. Tell them to find me and
I will build the others some totems as well. "
" Alright. And Solomon, I truly dont know how to thank you. "
" Deam were friends this is natural alright. If you need help in the
future come find me instead of brooding. "
Neither said anything after that both just walked seperate directions
smiling. Though Deam had more of a grin.
Solomon carved out the basic template for the totem before he oulled
out a new tool he developed. He was grinning from ear to ear because
he was happy to finally try out his new toy.
The tool was similar to a drimel but thousands of times more prescise.
With it Solomon could make a single carving so detailed that it looks
like many different sculptures.
For Deams totem he made it similar in shape to a mountain. At the top
of the mountain was a female warrior who looked almost exactly like
Deam. The warrior was posed holding a spear towards and advancing
army. The army was made to look like they were walking up the mountain
from a plain. The army was composed of what looked like countless
humanoid creatures. Each individual soldier looked like a different
person, attesting to the time and detail put into the totem. Even
though there was no movement the totem could make one imagine the
insuing battle that would take place.
During the week Solomon was given commision from all of the kids as
well as the other to parents, that hadnt previously gotten a totem.

Lorettas totem was of her leading an army of billions of undead to
attack her enemies.
Gabrielles totem was of a woman surrounded by the elements.
Fear and Reans totems were of themselves as small peices in a massive
group of non individual soldiers going against another army.
Nathairs totem was of a scholarly figure writing out problems on a
board.
Boireanns totem was a scholar in a giant library reading a book.
Wahine and Fuils totems were of a tree then nect on a the totem is a
forest and then a continent and then a world all the way up to world
tree that houses countless universes.
Each of the totem were detailed enough to look like a 3D photo.
When the group got each of their totems they were all excited beyond
belief. Though they only showed it for a second before every single
one of them went into seclusion.
Solomon took months to complete all of the totems.
After all of his family members went into seclusion Solomon decided to
get back to his perperation to be a theif. He decided he would make a
formation that would allow him to not only peak into vaults but to
also teleport anything in the vault out of it.
Such a formation is pretty easy to make but the hard part is to
conjure it instantly using his Barrier Magic. To be able to summon
such a formation in under a second is Solomons goal, he also decided
to start setting that goal for all his formations.
30 years passed before Solomon was able to summon the formation in
under a second.
All of the group stayed in and out of solitude for 600 years only
coming out to visit occasionally.
