《Demonic Transcendence》 Chapter 1 - The Battle Between Friends Chapter 1 - The Battle Between Friends ??? | Seth POV | ??? -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- I looked at my left hand, where the seal keeping my powers at bay was slowly flickering off and on, as I kept looking at it a white screen appeared directly above the seal. Malachai Seal Quality: Godly Effects: Seals the dark powers of the Malachai. Cannot be consumed by the hatred of the Malachai. Cannot be consumed by the vengeance of the Malachai. Cannot be consumed by the evil of the Malachai. Then I looked at my right hand, where the seal keeping my other powers at bay was doing the same, slowly flickering on and off, emitting a golden color, as I kept on looking at it, another screen floated up, shaped in the form of the clouds and the background cloudy like all other screens, it displayed information about the seal. Seraphim Seal Quality: Godly Effects: Seals the holy powers of the Seraphim. Cannot be consumed by the love of the Seraphim Cannot be consumed by the heart of the Seraphim Cannot be consumed by the good of the Seraphim Flicking both my hands upwards, the seals disappeared, what replaced them was a enormous burst of golden and orange light coming from my right side and golden and black light coming from my left side. I felt the effects of the seals completely disappear as both the Malachai and Seraphim inside of me tried to consume me, a white mist appeared as two figures, one an extremely handsome male and the other an alluring extremely beautiful female walked in front of me, one was bathed in a pristine white light and the other was relished in dark flames. The one to the right spoke first. ¡°Come towards me, embrace your Seraphim side and forget about the Malachai over their¡­¡± said the alluring female. ¡°Che! Don¡¯t lie to the boy Seraph, don¡¯t go to her side kid! If you do, you¡¯ll be consumed by the drive to serve the primal gods and defeat all evil, if you come to me you¡¯ll be your own man and rule the world!¡± said the extremely handsome male with an almost infinite amount of suave and confidence oozing from him. Both of them started bickering, offering infinite amounts of power, telling me what the benefits and demerits of joining their or the other side are. I coughed a bit to get their attention just before a full blown battle was about to begin, both of them immediately stopped and looked towards me expectantly. ¡° *cough* So...why can¡¯t I take in both of you?¡± I asked them both with a blank expression and steady voice. That immediately caused an uproar with both of them, they looked at each other incredulously as if they never thought about that. Almost immediately the mist disappeared and I found myself standing inside of an infinite white space, everywhere was white and white and white, the two figures looked completely different than before.

The extremely handsome male whom I suppose is the Malachai had an lazy and friendly aura around him while the alluring beautiful female had an sadistic and almost teasing air around her. ¡°Wow...so we finally found one who figured out the puzzle¡­¡± said the Malachai with a sleepy expression. ¡°Yes...after a few millions of eons of battling each other we finally found a actual person destined to wield us correctly.¡± responded the dazed Seraphim. ¡°Uhm...say what? I am not exactly following so if you can gimme a cheat code or something that¡¯ll speed up my cognitive abilities or make my comprehension high enough for you guys then I¡¯ll be grateful ¡®kay~ *wink*¡± I asked them. Malachai facepalmed himself while Seraphim muttered: ¡°He has a smart mouth too¡­¡± before Malachai started explaining and from there it went on in some type of duo explanation. ¡°As you can see we are both extremely powerful *cough* beings. Rather it could be said that we are the original beings who had represented both good and evil before being separated by pesky children.¡± started Malachai, his handsome face turning sour at the mention of pesky children. ¡°Originally, we were created by the allfather of creation to be gifted to the person destined to keep balance in the trillions of both major and small worlds, sadly the one person who had the affinity to wield us was killed by the pesky primal gods, or children in our case, and we were separated as if we were tools.¡± said Seraphim, her beautiful face turning sad towards the end. ¡°As a failsafe the ether of the multiverse itself created it''s own way of keeping balance, so now we seek a suitable host whose soul could handle both of us.¡± said Malachai. ¡°And your soul is unlike nothing we have ever seen before, it''s strength could be considered at least one tenth of the allfather, which is saying a lot because the allfather was infinitely powerful.¡± said Seraphim. ¡°And¡­¡± said Seraphim, ¡°...that special unique trait of yours can put you leagues above all others, it literally has infinite potential.¡± Finished with their explanation they both stared at me, with almost sad and tearful expressions. ¡°So¡­¡± I started my rant, ¡°...your telling me that the both of you are beings created to represent the ultimate evil and good, to keep the balance in the whole universe and it''s gazillion worlds? I say sure laddy! Can¡¯t have a good life without taking risks, ain¡¯t like I got something to lose.¡± ¡°Great! So we¡¯ll start the reincarnation process! We¡¯ll meet you once you turn sixteen, until then enjoy your powers of darkflame from Malachai and my holy lightning! We¡¯ll see you soon!¡± yelled Seraphim. ¡°Wha-!¡± I started to ask what they meant by reincarnation process just before a enormous amount of darkness enveloped me. Chapter 2 - New World, Same Name Chapter 2 - New World, Same Name ??? | Seth POV | ??? -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- I looked around as I felt warmth comfort me, everywhere was dark, and the only place that I could see was the deep black abyss of darkness. I tried moving or wiggling but something was restricting my movements, while normal people would scream and say who the hell was keeping me from moving I oddly felt comforted. I sighed and closed my eyes, willing my body to go to sleep my mind entered the abyss of the dream realm. *** I opened my eyes when I felt myself being pulled out after an unknown amount of time, as I entered this new world I grimaced, wailed, and cried in both joy and pain as I couldn¡¯t handle the powerful burst of my senses overloading. I narrowed my eyes when I looked at my parents, while my mother was looking at me lovingly like a any sane normal mother would, I could sense an clear impossible amount of love emanating from her. It was my father who worried me. Instead of looking at me like a proud father would, he looked at me greed, I could clearly see dollar signs in place of his eyes. As I saw the facade my father put up as he congratulated my mother, I could see her eyes harden, no doubt something is going to happen. She must¡¯ve gotten the basic gist that father is most likely going to use me for some purpose...those that mean I had special birth circumstances? I don¡¯t understand, unless my father was some type of high noble or something and my mom was like a replaceable wife it would make sense. Actually from the way they were acting and the grandeur of my surroundings that case would be very plausible...and annoying. If I was born as the son of a high noble then I most likely will be brought up the ¡°nobles¡± way and in the end be sold off for higher connections, obviously my mother knows this and from the way her posture, gestures, and facial expressions all are, I am guessing she is either going to run away or something of the like. I sighed and mentally blacked out while my mother breastfed me, after a few minutes of heavenly milk floating down my throat I went to sleep as she cradled me. The only thing I could gain from the conversations they had was that my name is still Seth and thankfully I am a male, my last name is Alduin, and my mothers name is Leila Alduin. ??? | Leila POV | ??? -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- I looked at the sleeping figure of my beautiful son, I knew that he is destined to do many and great things because of how long he was in my womb, for two long years he had slept in my womb. Usually the pregnancy would last from two to three months, the longer it lasted the more potential the child had, and the longest ever was only 11 months, and that was the pregnancy of the hero who saved and united the world.

I looked at the fool who was planning on using my baby to heighten his connection, if it was for me I never would have even married him, sadly he had captured my little sister and had wanted my body as compensation, but the fool could not see me undo the slave seal during the birth of my child and that would be his undoing. I shall wipe out this worthless estate and then go back towards the place where my original clan rested. The Alduin clan... while the fool could make me his wife and do away with me, I never allowed him to change my last name because the pride and honor of my clan is in it''s name, and I shall always keep it, even if it means death. Once the clan found out that I had escaped from the clutches of the fool they will attack him with our full force, which is comprised of at least a few thousand Divine Realm experts. Obviously that is what you would get if you took away the younger princess of the third major empires situated on this continent, and then afterwards force the older princess to marry you. I waited until the fool left, I gingerly kissed the forehead of my child and then picked him up, cradling him carefully, because he would not have an father to raise him as well I must give him the love of two parents, and that I shall. With a swipe of my hand the seal that masked my power flew away, and the presence of a Heavenly Realm expert could be felt, as fast as sound itself I flew out the house and with another swipe of my hands the whole estate crumbled, sadly I had chose to teleport all of the beings in the house outwards, because my clan would probably kill me if I didn¡¯t let them torture them. Another swipe of my hand and I teleported towards the entrance to the Darklight Forest, the original home area of my clan. The reason for this is that the spiritual essence and mana were almost infinite and thick in the center of the forest where the house of the clan rested. It was perfect for cultivation of both the average Magus and the average Maester. I exclaimed joyfully as the guards that patrol the forest saw me and almost at blinding speed appeared before me. ¡°Milady!¡± they both exclaimed joyfully as they knelt before me. ¡°Hello! I hope your families are doing well brothers, can you please take me towards the main house, it has sadly been years since I have been here.¡± I asked them. ¡°At once Milady!¡± said one of the guards as they motioned for me to follow them. ¡°Well...this is our new home...Seth¡­¡± I muttered as I followed the guards who running at an impossible speed.
