The Superior Rebirth: A Hero's Awakening

An Empire Reborn

September 10, 1808.

Vilnius, Lithuania

In the vibrant city of Vilnius, where merchants thrived and travelers came with their carriages, horses, and various other modes of transport, the Grand Royal Museum stood as a beacon of history and art.

Within its grand halls, awe-struck visitors witnessed an extraordinary scene: a swarm of heavily armed royal knights, each adorned with omega crests and wielding strange, mysterious weapons of unknown metal, marching into the museum. They were guarding a regal and imposing figure who exuded the aura of a mighty king.

As they ventured deeper into the museum, they entered a vast room filled with ancient statues, paintings, and artifacts. The heavily guarded individual was revealed to be none other than Percival Ashford, dressed in luxurious and elegant attire.

"Are we going to do the summoning here, my Lord?", one of Percival's knights asked curiously.

Percival replied with a smile, "Of course! Where better to summon him than here?"

"You're right, my Lord. It is a splendid summoning point," Another knight agreed.

Percival then ordered one of his knights to place a briefcase containing Jonathan's heart and the Fable Stone on the ground and unpack its contents. As the knight complied, Percival turned to a mysterious hooded man and asked with a grin, "Are you ready?"

The hooded figure nodded and approached the Fable Stone, which lay near Jonathan's heart. Percival then began casting a spell in the ancient Language of the Runes of Eldoria, causing the Fable Stone and Jonathan's heart to levitate and slowly fuse together.

Meanwhile, the hooded man enveloped Percival with a thin, cold energy, shielding him from the dark haze that began to form, instantly killing all of Percival's men as it touched them.

As the Fable Stone and Jonathan's heart merged into the artifact known as The Dreadful Fare, Percival uttered his final chant in the Runes of Eldoria: "Oh dreadful Lord, I call upon your name to return to the land of the living. With this sacrifice, you are hereby freed from the shackles of death."

At that moment, a monstrous gate appeared on the ground, opening and swallowing the Dreadful Fare as flames burst forth.

The flames vanished as quickly as they appeared, leaving the room in dead silence. Suddenly, a whirl of ominous energy erupted from the gate, and a dark, watery substance began to flow out, filled with skeletal remains and ominous souls.

A deep, terrifying voice echoed, instilling fear and madness in everyone in the city, "Fall!"

Instantly, Percival and the hooded man, including everyone in the city, were forcefully pushed to the ground, compelled to obey the voice.

From the dark pool, a man drenched in water emerged, an omega symbol forming on his chest, making him scream in agony.

In a burst of anger, he swung his hand, instantly killing everyone in the museum and slicing them into pieces. Luckily, Percival and the hooded man survived by shielding themselves with their Auras, though they still sustained some injuries.

Percival, panicking, tried to calm the man. "Wait! We are not your enemies nor are we here to fight you."

The man, still irritated, asked, "Are you the one who brought me back from the dead?"

Percival, with a proud look, replied, "Yes, I am! And I sincerely apologize for any discomfort."

The man remained silent, examining his muscular yet lean body, short dark hair, cold black eyes, and slightly tanned white skin. Noticing the omega crest on his chest, he thought, "What is this degrading and disgusting appearance?"
