Months passed as Ace and Isabella got re-accustomed to their lives in the village, but one thing was different Ace continued to go on hunts every now and then. "Hey, can I ask you why you spend days going on hunts? I just figured that it was kind of weird." Asked Isabella while sitting under a tree and Ace laying around at her side.
"Hmmm, let's just say that I need to get stronger fast for reasons." Answered Ace, "Which would be?" she asked. "Free to you to believe me or not, but well I want to exchange some words with a Divinity. Does that satisfy your curiosity milady?" added Ace. "Huh?! You gotta be kidding me. At least find a better lie." Said Isabella as she harbored a skeptic look on her face.
"Hmm, maybe your right. At least I'll tell you that it is not another promise and if I'm lying, then you can hit me all you want." Said Ace as he laughed lightly with a hint of sarcasm. As Ace rose up from the ground, "Well I think you'll find out sooner or later. Things are gonna get very hectic, more so than before unfortunately." Monologued Ace as he thought of what awaited him in the future.
And so Ace continued his usual routine while also training his sword skills and magic. "Hello mrs. Ellie, is Ace home?" said Isabella as she came to visit Ace, "OH! Isabella is that you? Unfortunately Ace is not home." Answered Ellie while Isabella harbored a disappointed and perplexed expression on her face.
"Hey, you sure that you are not overly anxious." Said Ryu as Ace was sparring with him within the inner world. As their spar continued, they increased the intensity of their spar to a level where the energy released became more and more intense and as they arrived at their climax, "Now let the trial begin my dear spellblade." Said a resonating loud voice as Ace just as Ryu reacted to it.
"QUERGO LUMINAS!" stated the voice as the duo find themselves in an ethereal plane with a cosmic sky above their heads. "Welcome to my realm dear chosen one. It has been a while since we last met." Said the entity as it approached slowly, "I see that the Demon Codex Blade is still quite the feisty one or should I call you Delrex. Well no matter, now you're name is Ryuugetsu right? Let me present myself I am Vartos Drankein Lucius, the Divinity of Chaos. I was the one who brought you into this world and I am also known as the Fallen Deity of Ode." Said Lucius as he approached while introducing himself.
"Vartos Drankein Lucius? And a fallen deity? What do you mean by that? And why did you bring me to this world?" asked Ace with a wary expression on his face, "Be careful Ace. If what this guy says is true then he is more dangerous than what he seems. He is a literal God of War and he also created the Demon Artifact Series, and in that sense he is my creator." Said Ryu as he spoke with an anxious tone.
"Yes what he says is true though all were failures and I disposed of them by sending them on the surface." Said Lucius as he spoke with a detached and indifferent tone. "So you're saying that you simply threw them away?" asked Ace. "No, they ended up becoming huge mana masses which created dungeons mostly known as the Trinity Labyrinths. I, on the other hand was found by a human and I became his sword. We were four of the Demon Series: I was the Demon Codex Blade, a sword which was capable of transferring magical formulas and aiding his wielder." Said Ryu.
"The others were the Demon Rune Grimoire, a magical text artifact which compresses, encodes and decodes magical. The Divine Demon Armor, an azur-blue armor which protects its wearer and improves their magical and physical capabalities. And finally, The Demon Beast Core which contains a drop of blood from a mystical divine beast. Us four were the Demon Artifact Series crafted by him." Continued Ryu.
"Wait, then why exactly am I here?" Asked Ace, "It is simple, as I've said before you shall be my proxy and my blade. I need you to accomplish my greatest project, The Singularity. When you achieve this, the world will know a great revolution. Now come my children it is time to accomplish my, our purpose." Said Lucius. "You know what, I don't know what you want but I think the only way is to beat the answer out of you, My Lord. LIMIT BREAK! Tatsu Ryuugetsu Yin Yang form." Stated Ace as he transformed into a new form wielding two blades.
A white colored blade in his right hand and a black one in his left, "Let's get him Ryu!" said Ace. "Fine. I also have grievances to resolve with my creator." Said Ryu as they prepare to fight against a God with overwhelming power. Hence the curtain rises as Ace dashes straight towards Lucius the Fallen God.
