I stared at the two rings cupped gently in my hand. Phoebe had left me alone with them, as I requested. She was really a sweet lady, a great servant, and a good friend. She had been there for me more than anyone else. When the phantom pains hit and I was crying and writhing…
I’m tired of this. I’m so tired of this hell. Three months now. I’m getting weaker and weaker. Amelia barely even visits anymore. Servants bring me food (always chicken) and water and attend to my needs. I may be crippled badly but I’m still a hero to these people. What the hell is wrong with…
It’s been a month now. A month ago, I made a mistake. It nearly cost me my life. I underestimated Fate. I thought of myself as invincible. " I am a walking cheat code ", that was how I thought. But I was wrong. I’m not a cheat code. I’m not invincible. I’m not a…
I stared at the ground. Nothing was there. Focusing my mind again, I pictured it once again. The switch to flip, the spot for energy to blast out the tip, the handheld size of just under 9 inches long. " Lightsaber. " …Nothing appeared. Damnit!

Heh heh heh… they can’t laugh at me anymore. I’m a goddamn genius. I stifled a bout of maniacal laughter in my mind. It was so brilliant it wounded me. I could create anything using my magical powers. I wasn’t just different, I was a walking cheat code. I aimed my hand at the sword….

A bolt of lightning flew past my head. It missed me by inches. " Barrier! " I yelled this and a magic barrier surrounded Amelia, who was taking the fight head-on. Just in the nick of time too, as a fireball glanced off and melted into the scorched earth, dissipating harmlessly. Aiming at my body,…
"Well. That was lame." Amelia laid on her stomach on the bed, twiddling a piece of fabric with her fingers. "Like, she hardly even put up a fight. Was she really that strong in the first place?" Amelia was greatly disappointed. She blew a piece of hair up and away from her face as it…
Damn! It had all changed so fast. First, I was gloating over an easy victory. Then that brat, that little child… somehow managed to defeat my riddle and even solve the condition to awaken Gabriel. You were only granted one chance and if you failed you could never retry. I had failed, and in return…
I pointed my finger at Bahamut. "I have judged you and found you lacking. You posed as a god, when really you were a devil. You deceived men for your own personal gain. You ruined lives, you ruined countries, you helped bring ruin to the entire world, and in the end you were just a…
