"Paul..." a voice of a woman echoed like through a hallway, it's tone was sweet and pretty as if you could see the beautiful face of the women.
"What's wrong Paul?" As her head tilted to see a sleeping Paul, his arms supporting his head. A blonde woman staring at him, his skin was elegantly smooth and her eyes were sparkling red. She tilts her head a bit as he was also pouting.
"I've been waking you up for minutes now!" He said Paul was still asleep so he scratched his eyes and stretched for a bit. "There are no problems today Luxanna, why bother the sleeping king here!" As he yawns more.
"You got a meeting today don't you?!" She said, she only sighed as she knew Paul would be this lazy but alongside such a powerful man she admired for a long time.
Paul wore long comfy clothes, his favourites. Although no crown above his head his face and name are synonymous to all of mankind. He was indeed powerful and atop of his game. Although at his 30's he's still a great leader and king. "I have a meeting indeed, look the hourglass is not even done yet, I still have some time" as he pointed into a huge hourglass which was placed on the corner of the throne room, nobody was there only Luxanna and Paul and a long red carpet and this luxurious Throne. "Watch out your sword will fall, Paul!" She said as she pointed out this long and green sword.
Paul picked it up and reposition it leaning it beside his arm guard, "You got the most powerful sword and yet you place it like that" Luxanne said as she stood up ready to go. Paul didn't bother at all, "I'll be coming, just alert the noblemen in the meeting room" Paul said.
"I ain't a maid Paul, go yourself, idiot!" She said as he curled her lips in inherent and walked put very loudly, "Hmph!" She said as she loudly closed the long doors.
Paul just smiled and didn't care at all, he looks on his sword yet again, "I don't know why but you sure look so good." He said into himself as shaking his head.
Berserker Sword was a green sword with an emblem of Red on its hilt, it was created from meteors coming from placemaking indestructible. It was said that War Lord wielded the said sword and placed it on Mount Olympus only to be picked up by Paul Himself. Normal humans would burst into nothing because of the sheer power of the sword, and Paul put an emblem on it symbolizing it's his sword and one only. He stood up and his sword suddenly disapeared from his hands. "Meetings as a king sure is busy..." he said into himself as he tried cheering himself, he was never a fan of politics and just became a king for fun...
The meeting was held privately no knights guarding the doors or even the hallways, Paul was also curious why the reason they were no knights. He didn't remember that he ordered them to go. He opened the big doors which usually doesn't happen caused the knight would be standing there opening it. All of the fhe eyes were stared at Paul as he entered and sat at the very top of the table.
"So why are we here? War or economic crisis?" Paul questioned, as he had his chinned up and was proud as a king.
"We are not here My Lord." Somebody with a beard said. Paul was stalled, "My Lord?! I never heard him said that!" Paul said into his mind. He coughed to hide this. "So what is it? Gentlemen's?" He questioned instead.
"We want you to step down from King of the World." He replied as he pointed to him. Paul stood up and banged the table, "What's the meaning of this?!" He screamed, all of the men were just blank faces they were scared to talk. The men who Paul was talking was shaking too, he gulped before talking. "My lord! Er. Majesty You need to step down! As a king or else the world will turn against us!" He said as a reason, furious Paul banged the golden metal table once more making a hole into it like butter. "You'll be sentenced to death once this is settled then!" He said shouting all of the men's were shocked and begged and talked more. "MAJESTY! You'll die...." one said in a frowning manner.
"The world decided to go against me?! So bat it!" He rambled as he closed the door very hard even breaking the handle which he dropped in the entrance.
"That shitty king!" One complained as Paul left the room. "Don't worry it's all according to plan, Luxanna will handle it..."

"Hey!" So suddenly his eyes went into clear, the sun was out and was still cold for a sweet morning. "Your medicine was good you know, I don't feel pain anymore" as Soon was moving his arms very lightly.
Paul stood up confused, "a dream?" He said into himself, as he was stretching. "You know you talk to your sleep." Soon's eyes stared at Paul, Paul was embarrassed also bit it soon faded away, he just shrugged and didn't make a bother to it.
"Whos Luxanna?" He suddenly said,
"Who's that"
"Well, you said it when you are sleeping."
Paul shrugged it off pretending to know nothing about this said name, Soon also just shrugged and thought of it as nothing and just a coincidence.
But deep down, Paul was angry he felt his heart torn by pieces of blade. He felt no remorse if he has ever come across the lady. He is sure to take revenge. He stood dare staring at nothing, he would like to express is guilts but can't for some reason. Instead, he was calm with a dead look into his face. He seemingly lost emotions for things after he was brought into the world again.
"Come to Think of it the lady we just talked about last night was named Luxanna"
Paul suddenly turned interested in his eyes, "Where is the Tower of God?" He questioned.
"Well just in the west country from here, why you asking it anyway. Tower of God is a place where ruthless killers fight each other and the one who wins gets a floor as a floor master if you're a floor master you can be regarded as a true fighting warrior. And on the 100th floor, that's where Luxanna lives and wait for her new opponents."
Soon stopped for a split second thinking the words he just said, it just split for a moment as he was not thinking smartly. But, he didn't felt Hei will do such a thing. But overall he remembered the look of his eyes the day he fought the mother spider.
"You actually going there do you..."
Paul just nodded as a smile ran through his face and looked into the sky as the sun rose upon the dark morning.
"Are you from the Old generations?"
"What are you saying?" Paul was confused about such words.
"Well, they are the warriors of King Paul. Every warrior already pledge their loyalty to some countries and the some who never agreed were executed..." at to this point Soon felt the puzzle pieces started to come up with something, he hands shook in excitement as he tried talking but couldn't. Paul which was worried he already been found out he was actually the King didn't know what to do he stared at Soon as he momentarily stopped.
Silence filled the open air of the forest.

"Are you a knight?"
Paul expected Soon to name him either the King one of his knights or a noble. But he didn't expect to be named such low ranks in the military, although he couldn't say it he can finally breathe. He was replenished he was not yet been found out for days.
Paul just laughed at it while Soon starting to have a disgusted look, "Some things are better left unsaid." He smiled he stood up, "Gonna take a pee somewhere here, stay here."
Soon was left there staring he was still waiting to be congratulated as he thought he had found out the answer to the mysteries of the homeless man. "If he's not a knight maybe a king instead? I've never met a guy who lives near the ravine of death anyway." He said into himself, but he laughed at it thinking it is an absurd theory.
"Sheesh, That boy there... I just have levelled up already after killing that spider but why didn't popped out?" He hides behind a tree and he opened up his system.

"Oh my, I got a lot of Points!" He was shocked flattered to see such highs numbers in his status, he felt happy but at the same time thinks he always counting on the system. He needed more cultivation techniques and skill to use, he was walking down a deadly path as a devil cultivator a path he didn't take in his past life. He is blind and expecting new skills to learn, he didn't know where to start but a small gaze upon to Soon he just knew how.
"I'll just start in the Dark arts Sect then..." he said, although his skills were limited as the system didn't record skills he hasn't yet used on. He has more moves and techniques to register on, he just knows how to do them without even trying them out. The system needed to record the move set of Paul in order for it to be upgradeable.
Paul thought for a moment thinking to wear to put all of his statuses on, he decided to put 15 on Agility 5 for power and 10 on Stamina. He closed the window and felt the feeling of replenishing in his body.
-And then suddenly.
"I have more features on this system right?"
"System," he said into his mind, it revealed 5 rectangular tabs to tap on.
[Status]
[Mastery Skills]
[Knowledge]
[Shop]
[Unknown....]
He was astonished about this he was saying system all along but was thinking of his status so the status only pops up.
"Are you done yet?! You are taking way to long!" Soon shouted,
"Yeah Coming!" Paul replied back and so he closed the tabs and revealed himself to Paul, his face says he was in a good mood for some reason. Soon also knew this as like the burden in his backs is now gone. "Now!" Paul clapped,
"Let's learn new skills..."

"It seems you defeated somebody again." A voice echoed through a dark room, the only light was the sunlight shining through a throne-like a chair which was facing behind the door.
Suddenly windows opened without somebody pulling them, and soothe once darkroom was lightened up only to revealed a chopped up body swimming in his blood near the entrance.
It revealed that some guy with glasses was the one talking and was standing there he looked the chopped up body but also didn't bother it. As like he had seemed way too many of this.
"Your sword may fall in your arm guard," he said calmly as he looks the precious sword of someone he knew from the past his inside didn't felt anything even though he respected the man who previously owned it, he hides and stared with a dead look in his eyes.
"It will not, to be frank, it was never mine." A sweet subtle voice replied, al of the windows revealed was just sky, and as you walked closer to it, the very bottom was high. They were in a tower.
"You still not obeying orders from the capital, your hand you have the power to heal it but.."
The sudden pressure from the air cuts the conversation, "you may bring that body and go away." The once subtle voice became a shout in anger.
"He's not alive anymore, Luxanna..."
A small smirk could be seen in her mouth,
"Really?..."
