The God Of Power

Chapter 13:.

Noboru stared at a white rabbit with blades coming out of its knuckles. This was a special rabbit monster called the BladeBunny. It was fast. Noboru took a deep breath as he appeared in front of it within seconds, attempting to punch it, only for it to dodge. It hit back with great speed and force, sending Noboru back, but he managed to stabilize himself. Noboru was not used to fighting without his Transcendent State which was what he named the Red and Black Omni Energy State. It was for this reason he wasn't using the techniques like omni energy elemental manipulation or special veil his grandpa taught him. He was fighting with fists alone.

"Damn it, I wish I could access that Red and Black Omni Energy State. With that, it would be done by now. But Ayame said she knows that power, and I can only use it when I'm in great emotional stress or when I'm about to die. But she wouldn't tell me more, only to get stronger with my base powers," Noboru said as he charged at the rabbit. He pretended to punch but drew out his sword with his other hand, slashing the rabbit's feet as blood leaked out and it growled in pain. Noboru stabbed his blade through its head, killing it. He picked it up and threw it into his bag, along with 15 other dead BladeBunny corpses.

"That should be enough," Noboru said as he walked around. It had been a day since he woke up and talked to Ayame; she hadn't spoken to him since. All he knew was that he had to survive, so he was stocking up on BladeBunny meat for food so he can do some physical conditioning and maybe get some herbs while he was at it. Luckily for him, this was the area he had set up camp when he came to train with Grandpa and Rose. Noboru's mood dampened at the thought of his dead Grandpa. He moped about for a bit but soon shook himself out of it. He would gain the power to bring back his Grandpa and make a better kingdom than the Phoenix, Quillin, and Tortoise kingdoms and make this evil, cruel world pay for his pain. But for now, he needed to find the nearby lake for water.

As he continued walking, he was caught off guard by a Normal Dire wolf biting him. His omni energy had protected him. Noboru punched the wolf in the face, sending it flying back. He was breathing heavily, but he heard growls behind and to the side of him.

"Damn it! It wasn't anywhere as hard as when Grandpa was here or when I can use the Transcendent state," Noboru said as he drew his wooden sword from the waist. His clothes were ripped a bit on the side where he was bitten by the wolf.

"Let's see how strong you truly are," Noboru said as he dashed at a wolf on his left, going for a slash, only for it to dodge, and the one in front of him attacked him, biting his arm that the sword outstretched. Noboru let go of the sword.

"Oww, that hurts," Noboru screamed out in pain as another wolf bit his free hand. The other wolf started to bite his legs. The had imobolised him. Noboru screamed out in pain as fear took over him he was gonna die his black and Red Omni energy, otherwise known as his Transcendent state, as he named it, erupted, destroying the wolves to their core. In a flash, his Transcendent state omni energy turned back to normal sliver omni energy. Noboru huffed and puffed and looked around.

"God damn it, that burst destroyed my crafted sword, the area around me, and the meat I collected," Noboru yelled out, pissed that his hard work for today was gone to waste. After his anger his came depression and self loathing

"I miss you, Grandpa. I never struggled this much with you around. Yeah, I was beaten by the citizens of the kingdom and hated, but at least with you, I had warm food and money to buy clothes. Now, I lost everything. I lost you. I miss you," Noboru said, dropping to his knees as he looked at the lifeless destroyed area around him that used to be full of life.

"Maybe I am a monster. Look, I destroyed everything, even though the world is meant to heal itself due to the Anti-Damage Force, but look, it isn't. Maybe they were right. Maybe if I wasn't born, you would still be alive, Grandpa," Noboru said, crying, remembering his Grandpa.

In the Demon Goddess realm,

Ayame watched with a frown on her face, looking at the sight of Noboru crying and blaming himself. Her anger erupted as several Absolute outer realms below hell were destroyed, unable to handle the power.

"This is all those lesser lifeforms' fault that my Noboru-kun is blaming himself. How dare they do this to him? I have half a mind to destroy them all, but Noboru-Kun shall be the one to do so. I won't help him survive. Neither will I train him until he can show me he is worthy of being..." Ayame said as she stopped, her train of thought getting sad.

"But maybe I should give him a sword, a shield, a magic bag and armor that can handle these types of outbursts," she thought as she teleported to hell and walked to a blacksmith.

"My goddess, it's you. What do you want?" The blacksmith said, kneeling.

"I want a sword, shield, armor, and a storage bag made out of demonite. It should be able to handle power similar to mine," Ayame said.

"As you wish, we have one sword; it's called BlackStar Blade. It is my best creation; it has many different powers like..." The blacksmith was cut off.

"Don't tell me. I would like to find out what it does by watching it in action," Ayame said as she looked at a Black kartana with gold outlines and patterns on it.

"Watching it, my goddess?" The blacksmith said, only to receive a glare that made him stop questioning it.

"You know best, My goddess. I also have a shield to go with the sword as a set; the BlackStar Shield," the blacksmith said as he showed her a black and gold shield with sharp edges, making her smile; it looked menacing.

"And this is the armor set made of black and gold demonite. It even has a few special crystals made out of..."

"I will take it," Ayame said as the blacksmith nodded. Ayame smiled at the armor; for a fully grown man, she focused her omni energy on it, and the armor and equipment shrank to Noboru's size. "Perfect," she said, teleporting to the forest.

Forest of the Forbidden Regions,

"Get up, Noboru-Kun," Ayame said, seeing Noboru cry, only to see Noboru unresponsive. She walked up to him, let out her aura, making Noboru turn to her, scared.

"Ayame, you shouldn't waste your time on me. I am useless; I can't even fight some weak dire wolves without that Transcendent State. I froze up and wanted Grandpa's teachings; his teachings might have been better with Meiyo and Kouki. You shouldn't have wasted your time saving me. Maybe if I died like the citizens and Chikara family wanted, Grandpa would still be alive. I am better off dea..." Noboru felt a slap on his face.

"Don't ever say that, Noboru. Do you know how long I waited for you to be rein... Forget about me. Are you going to waste your Grandpa who gave up his life making you stronger? Are you really gonna waste your life after I, a demon goddess queen, came to save you? After your Grandpa gave everything to trying and make you capable of success?

Here's the option you have now: You either waste everything your grandpa gave to make you successful, to raise you, or you man the fuck up and survive for him, for me, and most importantly, for yourself. So what will it be? Will you give up like a coward and disgrace everything your grandpa fought for, or will you Fight, Survive, and live for your grandpa, for me, and yourself?" Ayame said, angry that Noboru was like this.

Noboru thought about this; his grandpa gave up everything for him so he could be capable of success. So Noboru could achieve his dream.

Flashback,

A little 4-year-old Noboru went up to his grandpa and hugged him. Haruki hugged him back and ruffled his hair.

"What does my little prince want from me now?" Haruki said as Noboru looked at him with cute big eyes.

"Grandpa, why don't you still transcend dimensions like the others still do as they age?" Noboru asked, tilting his head to the side, curious.

"You see, I have to look after you. Who else will protect you from the meanies in the kingdom who stare at you with evil intentions?" Haruki said, making Noboru pout.

"I am a prince, grandpa; I can protect myself, plus I have the cronus," Noboru said as Haruki frowned but ruffled his hair. "But you also have me, the strongest in the kingdom, something a prince should have," Haruki said.

"Your right, grandpa. Thank you for being the only one who's nice to me," Noboru said.

Flashback end.

Noboru's tears stopped; he used his sleeves to wipe off any excess tears on his face as he stood tall, all self-doubt gone. Noboru felt disgusted at himself for almost giving up and wasting his grandpa's time, love, and devotion. He grabbed a nearby sharp object and cut his wrist.

"I swear I will never be weak again. I will fight! I will survive! and I will live!" Noboru said as Ayame ran up to heal him.

"Noboru, you idiot, don't cut yourself, but I am happy you're back to your senses," she said, leaving a scar of his wound on his wrist.

"I am going to leave this scar on you so it can be a reminder of your time of weakness and the reason you live for your grandpa, for me, but most importantly yourself. Because ..." Ayame was cut off.

"Because Grandpa gave his life for me to live. He gave me all his time and devotion, and I won't give up. I will make him proud so that the day I see him again, he will be proud of the man I have become," Noboru said.

"Good. Now, anyway, I see you transcendent form, as you decided to dub it, has destroyed your equipment, so I brought you this," Ayame declared as, with a snap of her finger, the gear she purchased for him appeared.

"Wow! That's a beautiful sword, and that shield is so cool. The armor looks good," Noboru said as, in a few minutes, he was in his new armor. He had black armor with golden outlines and a cape that went down to his waist; several special crystals were on it. On his sword holster lay the Black Star Blade, a black katana with gold outlines and patterns on it, and the Black Star Shield, a shield with pointy edges and black and gold outlines; it had an omni energy crystal holstered on his hand.

"Looking good, Noboru-kun," the demon said as she stepped up to him and put her hand out, letting out energy, and lines of text appeared in omni energy and vanished. "I've written some rules, like only you can use the sword, armor, and shield, and in the armor's case, wear it. The sword, shield, and armor will grow with you both power and size-wise," she said as Noboru had stars in his eyes.

"That's so cool; when will I learn that, Ayame-chan?" Noboru said. As soon as Ayame heard "chan," her face turned red, along with her ears, and her ears and wings twitched. She quickly calmed down.

"Not yet, Noboru. Prove to me you are ready; when you have proved your worth, I will train you," she said, making Noboru pout before gaining a look of determination.

"I will prove my worth, and then you will train me, and I will avenge Grandpa and destroy the prophet that ruined my Grandpa and mine's life," Noboru said with determination, as Ayame nodded before hugging him and teleporting to the Demon Queen's realm, her home.

Noboru heard growls and saw four more dire wolves, making him smirk. "I'm not scared of you anymore," Noboru said as omni energy flowed around him, and he vanished with great speed, slicing all of the wolves' heads off.

"I will survive; I will live, no matter what is thrown at me. I will overcome everything," Noboru said, looking at the cut on his arm. "I will never be close to disgracing my grandpa, Ayame-chan, or myself again," he said, walking to the meat of the wolf he had gained double the meat he got from killing the BladeBunny. He put it in a magic bag Ayame had brought him.
