~Ryu POV~

Looking around me, now I am back here, on the rooftop on where I was before, and the plastic can still be there and filled with blood. I can also hear police sirens from a distance, possibly from the significant incident I just caused.

Looking up toward the sky, I can see that the sun is now relatively low, meaning that it is nearing the end of the day and nighttime is approaching soon, but all of that aside, I have a much bigger problem at hand.

The thing that had just happened to me in the last five minutes was probably the most insane thing I seen in my life. First, I saw talk and was nearly killed by the personification of death itself. I then got rescued by the being that is the aspect of nothingness itself, and that said also told me very cryptic before teleporting me away.

And all of that happened in five minutes, but it seems time moved faster here when compared to where I previously was, another revolution, knowing that there is more to this universe than I once knew.

But the biggest surprise out of them all that I found out is probably that... aliens exist!!

That, for me, is probably the biggest surprise out of them all.

That means that there is life out there up in the sky. In the emptiness of space, which makes me even more insignificant in this universe, the feeling of being nothing than just another speck of dust in the universe.

That kind of sucks, know how insignificant I am in a bigger picture of things.

No, why should I be bothered by that? It doesn't matter how insignificant and small I am in the universe, I am still me, and that is all it's matter to me.

Now back to what I heard from that being named Oblivion.

He said there is a prologue, a first, second and third act, all of them seem to be telling what will happen in the future, that is what I assume, of course, I mean, that guy could be lying, but I think there is no reason why he should be lying, considering who or what he is.

Why am I sure that these events will happen in the future? Well, it's somewhat apparent considering what he tells me and the information that I get from him.

So, if I remember correctly, the first act is...

He Who Annihilate? What does that mean? A devil to some, god to the other, Oblivion did say that whoever this is will destroy any being that threatens his existence. So that means as long as I am not a threat, I should be fine.

No, there is no way I'm going to be okay here because whoever this is must be very powerful, considering that at least someone like Oblivion has taken notice of him, but how what should I deal with whatever this is?

When will this happen? Who is this person? Where will he come from?

Wait... maybe he will come from space? I now know that there are aliens out there in space, so perhaps he is some sort of alien invader coming from space to Earth to conquer or maybe destroy Earth.

But when will that happen? And how am I involved in all of this? There are still so many questions that I want to know the answer to.

Then, the first act, King of Chaos, rises from the East and brings forth the unforgettable darkness to all things in the universe.

From the East... Japan? I feel like whoever this King of Chaos will come from Japan; I don't know why but I can think that whoever this guy is, he will be relating to Japan; I mean, where else would he come from the East?

And it's pretty obvious that whoever that is, he will come after the prologue, so, maybe after the so-called prologue, this King of Chaos would come out from the East and do... whatever King of Chaos would.

Well, the answer is probably causing as much chaos as possible.

But after Oblivion said that, he said, ''When the darkness and the titan have been defeated, the second act shall begin.''

So after the darkness, which I assume would be the King of Chaos and whoever the titan is, had been defeated, the second act will begin.

But wait, this has so many other implications.

He said this after telling me about the so-called prologue and first act. Does that mean this King of Chaos will happen? So does that mean it doesn't matter whether the prologue occurred or not? That doesn't seem very reassuring.

And who is this titan person that he talks about? He seems to be very insignificant considering he doesn't have any fancy title and only mentions him as a side character in the story. Still, Oblivion did talk about him, so whoever this titan is, he probably has some important role, or maybe he did something very impactful.

But then comes the second act, The King in Black; Oblivion said he would come from the void, which means he probably would come from space, or maybe he would come from an actual literal void itself; how should I know?

The King in Black, the Parasite God, will come with an army of dragons? That looks pretty fantastical and more magical than anything. Still, I am talking about a prophecy coming from an aspect of the universe, and I do learn that aliens and possibly gods exist, so I don't think it would be too far fetched to say that magic also exists.

And from what I heard, he has a sword and would kill the... light? Or maybe a metaphorical to said a being related to light somehow?

This is so confusing, but the title of King in Black sound much more ominous. Compared to something like He Who Annihilate or King of Chaos, King in Black sound much more threatening and very relatively cool in some way.

But there is also the fact that he said this King in Black person is also a Parasite God? A King who leads an army of dragons that is also a god of parasite? This seems not to fit together.

But then it leads to the last act, The Dragon of The End, The Absolute Dragon of The Void; he said that this dragon will appear and will make everything go back to sleep and start to dream once more.

That last part seems even more ominous than the previous act, saying how this dragon will eat the whole universe.

Where does it come from, and the dragon? Oblivion said that the dragon would come from nothingness. Does that mean the dragon is somehow related to the King in Black army of dragons?

Questions after questions, there are just so many of them, and I hate it.

But right now, I have something else to do: deliver this blood can back to Mary; after that, I will think about all of this later.
