Apocalypse Cheater

[: 3rd POV :]

Amidst the events unfolding on Earth, as Leila and Cecilia continued their journey, Daniel sat alone inside his room.

His gaze fixed upon the small yet formidable Nirvana Pill resting in his palm.

The weight of its power was almost tangible, radiating an ancient energy that seemed to hum with an untold story.

He had already distributed his other rewards, bestowing the ten Holy Authorities upon Cecilia, entrusting the Necklace of Aphrodite to his mother, and leaving the rest for his own use.

But among them all, the Nirvana Pill stood special, a treasure that cultivators across the realms would wage wars over.

And yet, here it was, nestled between his fingers, awaiting his decision.

'A single pill that could unravel the cycle of karma and rebirth…' he mused, staring at its golden aura.

Legends whispered of its ability to liberate one from the clutches of fate itself or in another words, death itself, but whether that was truth or mere myth remained uncertain.

Regardless, the potency of the Nirvana Pill was undeniable.

It held the promise of unlocking an unfathomable power hidden within the very essence of its consumer.

The existence of cultivators was no mystery to him, though their presence had yet to be revealed.

Their realm lay mystery, awaiting its destined revelation.

But Daniel was no stranger to taking the initiative, why wait when he could force open the door to the unknown?

'That part of the quest is still far ahead… but if I can accelerate my growth, why hesitate?' He thought, steeling his decision.

Without further delay, he placed the pill onto his tongue and swallowed.

For a brief moment, nothing happened. Silence filled the room, stretching into seconds.

Then—

A violent eruption of energy tore through him, sending golden waves of light cascading outward.

The sheer force of it rattled the very foundation of his being, seeping into every fiber of his existence.

[: You have consumed the Nirvana Pill and have unlocked the Hidden Powers within your Body :]

A golden aura enveloped him, reshaping his body from the inside out.

His bones shattered and reforged themselves, his organs pulsed with newfound vigor, his muscles tightened and expanded, reinforcing his entire frame.

It was an excruciating yet exhilarating metamorphosis, one that transcended the limits of mortal transformation.

[: Congratulations. Due to the Nirvana Pill, you have obtained the Physique of Void Emptiness :]

[: Void Emptiness Physique :]

- Your body has become a vessel of the void, existing in a state of absolute emptiness-

-You are immune to the effects of all external forces, and every skill or attack you unleash carries the essence of void—devouring all existence in its path -

Daniel exhaled, feeling the raw power coursing through his veins.

The changes were not merely physical, an ominous, unfathomable force coiled within him, primal and untamed.

And yet, knowing it was his to command brought an eerie sense of reassurance.

But that was far from over.

His gaze fell upon the next treasure in his possession, the Heart of Fenrir.

Unlike what its name suggested, it did not resemble an organ but rather a crystalline silver diamond, pulsating with a hidden, ancient divine essence.

It was small, almost unassuming, yet he knew better than to judge it by appearance alone.

This was not merely an heart; it was a an of a primordial force, containing the essence of a being that had once defied the heavens themselves.

Without hesitation, he brought it to his lips and consumed it.

The transformation was immediate.

A surge of silvery fire erupted from his core, flooding the room with an ethereal glow.

The divine energy radiating from it was unnatural, something that should not exist in this world, at least not yet.

Then came the change.

His hair grew longer, strands of silver intertwining with his natural locks.

A thin layer of silvery fur sprouted across his arms and shoulders.

His teeth sharpened into predatory fangs, his pupils slit like those of a beast lurking in the darkness.

A white sigil, sharp as a cross, etched itself onto his forehead, while glowing lines trailed down his arms and legs like celestial markings.

His nails lengthened into razor-like claws, but before the transformation could fully consume him, his body stabilized, absorbing the Fenrir's power as if it had always been part of him.

[: Congratulations. You have consumed Fenrir's Heart and inherited Fenrir's origins, gaining the following Boosts :]

[: Overall Stats Increased by 100 Billion. Divinity Stat Increased by 100K :]

[: You have obtained Fenrir's Skills :]

Devour of Worlds

Howl of Ragnarok

Chains of Chaos

Absolute Destruction

Indomitable Regeneration

Incalculable Force

Daniel inhaled sharply, feeling a new presence stirring within him.

It was not a mere surge of power, it was the remnants of something ancient, something alive.

The residual fury of Fenrir whispered in his veins, a lingering rage that had yet to find closure.

He placed a hand over his chest, feeling the relentless pulse of his transformed heart.

Though he had consumed the heart of the great beast, he could feel its essence still burning within him.

'It's as though… Fenrir's will still lingers…' he murmured, gripping his chest as a deep, almost mournful growl resonated in his soul.@@novelbin@@

No, there was no other consciousness dwelling inside him, Fenrir was long gone.

But its final emotions, its lingering defiance against fate, had fused with his own.

A chilling realization settled upon him.

This was not merely an acquisition of power.

It was an inheritance of a forgotten wrath—a beast's unfulfilled vengeance that now resided within his very being.

Although Daniel was enjoying this moment of change, somewhere in a unknown realm, there was also...a change.

A kind of change that Daniel never expected it to happen or maybe he had considered it to happened but perhaps, he didn't expect it now to happen.

- In an unknown time, realm and space -

[: Current progress of Earth 3219 is progressing quite smoothly :]

There was the System Notification, but it didn't appear like a panel.

It appeared directly on multiple screens, showing progress of unknown places and datas one wouldn't understand the mechanisms behind it.

There were 'unknown beings' supervising these 'computers'

"As expected, these worlds are progressing as we had planned" Suddenly, there was one being stood all the way at the back, monitoring these screens.

However, as the 'Being' oberserved these computers, there was suddenly an alarmed.

[: Emergency! Emergency! Emergency! :]

All of the computers had showed warnings and red panels that signifies the danger of the current situation.

"What the hell is going on!? Why is the 'Mother Computer' acting up!?" The being questioned with cautious eyes.

"We don't know ****" One of the beings who was handling the computer spoke.

"Check what's wrong with it!" He ordered.

"This has never happened before...not in a million years...unless!"

[: The System has detected a singular being who has disrupt the flow of progress and order :]

He suddenly remembered and had heard a legend whereby if the Mother Board starts acting up, it can mean only one single thing.

"An Irregular has appeared!" He said.

It wasn't a good news for him if a irregular had appeared.

Since for him who was still young, he had heard that every single irregular would bring a 'change'.

"Sir, we have found the problem!" One of the beings exclaimed.

[: The balance and order of Earth 3619 is beyond the scope of what it has been planned :]

[: Due to the imbalance, the system has decided to accelerate the program and commence 100 years of operation for Earth 3619 :]

[: Seeking permission and Authority from Mother Board is loading :]

[: Mother Board has given the permission and Authority, hence, commencing operation and, the Mother Computer will advance all quests, realms and main missions of Modern Fantasia :]

[: System has detected that all programs is insufficient to restore balance and order of Earth 3619 :]

The being had never seen such scale before and gazing over the panels, he was beyond shock and horrified.

For the Mother Computer to seek authority from the Mother Board is already a bad omen itself.

However, for the Mother Computer to declare that forwarding its 100 years plan wasn't enough was terrifying enough.

"What kind of mortal does that world have...?" Discover stories with My Virtual Library Empire

The results of forwarding 100 years plan could tell him what kind of strength that irregular possessed.

But for the system to declare that it wasn't enough had scared him.

[: Commencing backup plan and seeking more authority from Mother Board :]

"More authority...?" Now, that being had no words to describe what the hell was happening.

[: Authority has been approved and full access from domain has been approved :]

[: Initiating and progressing programs for Earth 3619 :]

[: Connecting links from gates to earth has been connected :]

[: Connecting bridge from Realms to Earth has been connected :]

[: All difficulties will be multiplied by 1000 times to balance order :]

[: System has detected that all balance and order for Earth 3619 has been solved, System will now return to operation :]

"Seriously...this is one heck of a day and I'll better report to 'them' and I don't think they will like it" The being declared.
