As our main character explained to his team the adventure he had experienced, they continued towards their destination until…
"Here is the place," Ben said, stopping at the entrance of a large mansion.
"Wait here, I shouldn't be long," Ben said as he ran into the massive building.
Several minutes later…
Huh, I wander how long this is going to take?
"Ehh, it shouldn't be much longer," Lio replied.
Then suddenly they heard a loud noise from inside…
What was that?
"Should we go check?" Lyra asked.
"I don't know," Mr. Sato replied.
If something bad happened I don't want the blood to be on my hands because I did nothing. I'm going in, if y'all don't want to that's fine but the blood isn't going to be on my hands.
Then Aerin rushed inside and his team followed shortly after…
Inside…
No, Ben!
Ben was on the ground with a bruised face and broken arms…
Who did this!
"I did," a voice said.
Who?
"Look forward," the voice replied.
As Aerin looked up, he saw a tall muscular man on a throne with two men on either side of him…
Why? Why would you do this to him?
"He was late," the man on the throne said.
Just because he was late, what's your name, old man?
"You fool!" a man yelled from the side of the throne.
"You are speaking to the current head of the 15 great clans, the 15th clans great elder… now kneel!" the man at the side of the throne added.
Nope.
As the man was about to charge at Aerin, the great elder who sat on the throne stopped him. Then suddenly, the head of the 15 great clans rushed down to Aerin with such speed that even Aerin was shocked…
"Hmm, you seem to be strong, kid. But you are far too weak to speak on equal terms with me," the head of the 15 great clans said mockingly.
Then the head of the 15 great clans motioned for his men that were on the sides of his throne to kill Ben, and they did…
No! Why! He was already out of the fight. Why did you kill him?
"Because I don't like lose ends," the head of the 15 great clans replied.
"Now, capture this punks friends and kill them wile I play with this punk for a bit," the head of the 15 great clans ordered.
Then with minimal resistance to the henchmen, they captured Aerin's team…
"Hey boss, this girl is a little cutie. Con we play with her for a bit?" the henchmen asked.
"Sure, but kill her afterwards," the head of the 15 great clans replied.
As the henchmen were trying to gain control over the young girls, who were putting up a fight for their life, suddenly…
"Aerin, help!" Aelira screamed at the top of her lungs, struggling to keep out of the grasp of the dirty henchmen.
Then in that instant, Aerin felt a feeling he had never felt before. It wasn't sadness, it wasn't anger, it wasn't despair, it wasn't disgust, it was wrath. This seemed to trigger something in our main character…
Enough!
It was as if chains and shackles within our main character had been broken…
In that instant, time stopped and our main character began to move around in the room unchallenged. Our main character grabbed Aelira and brought her outside, and did the same with the rest of his team…
Then he disabled his ability and time began to flow again…
Alright, now that my team is safe I'll gladly have some fun with you.
As the leader of the 15 great clans and his henchmen were still in a daze trying to figure out what had just happened, our main character took initiative…
Dash!
Aerin had moved at the speed of light towards the henchmen…
SHKRRR—DUNF!
Aerin stabbed all four henchmen in seconds…
Now that those nasty vermin are gone, time to dispose of you.
"No, no, no, no, wait! I can give you money, girls, mansions, anything you want. Just spare me please!" the head of the 15 great clans begged Aerin.
Why would I need such temporary and trivial things when I already have everything I want. I have a team that cares for me, I girl that will cry for me and be by my side for days, I have power, I have a future, I have time. All of these things you will soon lack because of your foolish actions.
Tell me, why should I spare such a pitifully selfish creature such as you.
Then our main character used his eternal flames and burned the 15 great clans elder to ash…
As our main character walked back outside, he thought…
I guess that's one more emotion that I'll have to control very carefully. Righteous wrath can be good, but Wrath itself can lead people astray. I need to calm down.
When our main character got back to his team…
Are you all okay?
"Yes," they all replied, noticeably nervous.
What's wrong you guys?
"Just who are you and why are you so powerful?" Aerin's team all asked at the same time.
Aerin then thought for a moment, debating on whether he should tell the truth or not. Until…
"Why ask such questions when he saved your lives?" a familiar voice said.
Léōn!
"Hello child," Léōn replied.
As Léōn's feet hit the ground, the sheer weight of his presence shook the world, and Aerin's teem were crushed under the pressure they felt…
Hey Léōn, you mind laying off a bit?
"Sure my child," Léōn replied.
Then the world stopped shaking, and our main character's team could stand once more…
Why are you here Léōn?
"I'm here to warn you child. Your powers are far stronger than you think, if you don't learn to control them then you could grow up and destroy this world. That is why I'm here to take you to Heaven, so you can train amongst the most powerful warriors in existence and learned to control your power," Léōn replied in a serious tone.
Awesome, will I get to see my old man?
"No you won't, sorry," Léōn replied.
But why?
Well, Aerin, remember I told you your old man was in Paradise. Paradise is one of the heavens, but there are multiple distinct heavens beyond it. Paradise is the realm where all dead souls go to find peace—no hardship, no grief, no evil, only joy and goodness. Heaven is the realm where I, my father, and his armies exist. There is also Hell and Tehom," Léōn explained.
"Okay… what about my friends?"
"They'll be here when you get back. Time won't flow here while you're in Heaven—I'll make sure of it. And you won't age either, since Heaven is purely a spiritual realm," Léōn said.
"What do you mean?"
"The lowest heaven—Hell—contains an uncountably infinite number of dimensions. It has to house damned souls, demons, fallen angels, and tormented spirits. Angels are extremely powerful, so they require their own unique realms as well. Then we still need to accommodate the rest of the souls and demons from across existence—many of whom are also extraordinarily powerful.
So we created a vast structure that could never be destroyed. Beyond that, we needed higher realms—eternal spaces outside the constraints of space, time, and structure. That's how the higher heavens came into being.
And finally, we needed a realm for beings of divine strength and nature… so we created the highest realm: Heaven," Léōn explained further.
