Rebirth: Tyrant's New Reality

[This will hurt a bit, please bear it.]

"Haha, those tortured I suffered now allow me to bear almost anything," Arkhen said with a laugh, but his mood also turned sour when he remembered the torture.

It was really hellish, and he felt like he would turn insane anytime in that last torture. If he had given up even for half a second and weakened his will, he would have turned mental and died.

"That bitch, I'll humiliate her again after getting this bloodline," Arkhen muttered, and shortly later, he felt countless stings all over his body.

The Bloodline was extracted, and the process was finished after a minute as Arkhen flew up and started refining his body with the mysterious liquid.

…

"Old man. Why did you tell us to put that flower there? It's not just any bloodline source, right?" Nixeno asked as he looked at the old man.

Morana, Olethros, and Nixeno sat in front of old man Shiron and questioned him.

"That kid is important to us, and that bloodline will make him powerful," the old man said while caressing his head. "He is your new master, so you are worried, but relax."

"But what's the catch? We want to know," asked Olethros as he crossed his arms with a stubborn expression.

"That bloodline is from another world, and aside from just a bloodline, which will also evolve easily, that flower will also give him something beneficial," old man Shiron said with a smile.

"What exactly?"

"You can say that he will get a side-effect."

"What side-effect?" Morana asked with a frown.

"Disposition Cycle," old man Shiron said with a faint smile. "Anger, Lust, idleness, and Hunger. These four dispositions in him will become extremely heavy every five days with two days of a break in-between."

"But there's a benefit, as I said," Shiron laughed, "If he is in anger disposition, he needs to vent his anger, and doing so would automatically make him strong progress in his source power."

"If he is in the Lust cycle, he will feel extremely lusty and needs to vent it. Doing so would similarly boost his progress."

"In idleness, he will feel extremely lazy, so he needs to command other people and live a totally spoiled life. Doing this would progress his source power as well."

"Lastly, the hunger. He will feel paramount hunger and must eat like there's a bottomless pit in his stomach. Doing so would increase his source power."

"But there's no need for this, right?" Nixeno frowned. "He can progress fast even without this."

"Of course. This is not the only benefit," old man Shiron continued. "What I just said were the side effects of the original boon he will get from the flower. Once he overcomes these side effects, he will get four Rule Powers."

"Rule powers?!"

Nixeno and others hadn't heard of such powers.

"Indeed. Mind you, even I only have six Rule powers," Shiron rolled his eyes. "Now tell me, is that not worth it?"

"He must stay alive and bring out the full potential of reality token. If he dies, then who knows when the next one will reach? By that time, this world of Nine realms will be destroyed," Shiron said with a severe expression.

"We can't go to the lower realm to ensure his safety, and he must also temper himself in the journey of getting strong, staying alive, and bringing out the full potential of the Reality token before arriving here; that's the right plan, right?" Shiron questioned.

Nixeno, Olethros, and Morana nodded.

"But we don't have time!" Shiron slapped his hand on the table. "You idiots don't know how big of trouble is coming! Arkhen might not even reach the ninth realm before the final phase of that trouble arrives here!"

"Old man, we want to know about that so-called trouble. What is it?" Nixeno asked with puppy eyes. "Why are you keeping it a secret? You only told us that our world will be invaded and destroyed, but who and what will invade us? We want to know more about that."

Shiron wryly smiled and shook his head. "If I tell you that, you will die. The basis of your reality will vanish. So, do you still want to hear it?"

"Humph, stop scaring us by exaggerating things. How can we vanish by simply knowing about a bunch of things or people?"

Olethros snorted and continued, "then why didn't you disappear?"

Shiron made a slapping motion as a palm appeared and slapped Olethros on his head. "Bastard, do you think we are the same? I am in a whole different realm of power than you."

"Tsk," Olethros clicked his tongue in annoyance. He didn't believe they would simply vanish upon hearing some words, but he couldn't overlook it after seeing this old man Shiron's power.

All this while, he and other Exotic Demons, along with many other beings, were among the strongest beings in this world.

However, this old man had the power to kill all of them, even if they joined hands. It was like his powers were of a different, higher nature, such that no matter what kind of defense they used, they were simply useless against his attacks.

"I have a doubt. Why do you want to save this world of nine realms?" Morana asked as she narrowed her eyes.

"I am not doing this because I consider myself some savior or anything. It involves a personal matter," old man Shiron calmly said before he raised his hand and pointed at the door. "Go. Your other two demon companions are here. Finish the tasks I gave you if you want to save this world and live."

…

Arkhen finished refining his body with the mysterious liquid of the flower and felt the resonance as the flower opened its mouth.

Arkhen jumped inside before dropping into a pool of mysterious liquid with colorful sparks!

[Wait, this… What is this?]

Velshi's confused voice rang out, but Arkhen lost his conciseness right after jumping into this pool!

His body just floated on the water while the mysterious liquid started entering his body.

Abnormal patterns and symbols started appearing on his body.

[My lord! Wake up!]

Velshi even used reality motes and reality essence but couldn't wake up Arkhen.

[W-What is this power?!]

Velshi didn't know what to do. But first, she calmed down and checked Arkhen's status.

After thoroughly checking everything, she sighed in relief. 'Alright. There's no indication of danger to him. The Bloodline is infusing, but what is this other mysterious power that's getting carved in his soul?'

'If this continues, his soul will surely burst, and he will die.'

After thinking hard for a minute, Velshi judged that removing a superpower was the only way to prevent Arkhen's soul from bursting and preventing his true death.

'Hmmm, he hadn't used Undead Realm for a while. But that's because he never needed it. What if he wants to use it later?'

'Arghh, whatever. I must remove one superpower, so Undead Realm it is. The other three are way more important and powerful.'

As such, Velshi quickly erased Undead Realm superpower's imprint from Arkhen's soul to alleviate the pressure.

[My lord. Nothing must happen to you. Please bear whatever that you are experiencing]
