The Time I Failed As An Author and Became The 2nd Soul of The Eminence In Shadow

A Princess and A Hard Place

I honestly didn't know what the actual hell to title this. So. . . I figured this worked.

Felt like this is a really necessary thing to say. This isn't gonna be some deep and complex lore story. It's gonna be me doing what I want while sticking to the story with alternative plot points. If that isn't your cup of tea then it might not be for you.

There will be deep dives into power structure and things like that. I want to use this as an idea dump for the most part. Most decisions made by Eternal are purely based off things I'd would've done in Minoru's circumstances. Minoru's Parts will be rather short unless it's been a large gap in time since it was his PoV. He will have his moment where he shines. Such as the Shadow performance and things like that.

Another Smaller Note, I'm an anime only dude. I'm currently reading both the Web and Light Novels but I know I can't get every express detail right. So do expect a few difference from Canon.

If you decided to stick around and read then I hope you enjoy this.

This chapter will also hold a massive change in writing. I don't really think Theater Script works for fanfic.

~~~~~ | Minoru's PoV |~~~~~

After that whole incident, Claire departed to The Midgard Academy. I got to say Eternal knows how to put on a performance. I mean that one liner was awesome. . . "We'll dive deeper, as deep as we can go." He really knows how to preform.

~~~~~~|Author PoV|~~~~~~

There's a thin line between being a genius and a fucking idiot. . . Minoru uses that fucking line like a jump rope! There's been roughly 30 clues within the last week that the cult exists. . . For someone that waited his entire life for this, he sure is a fucking dumbass.

The Seven Shades as I dubbed them, departed with us during the sunset. Luckily I get sunset as my area of control while Minoru gets sunrise. I gave them my final orders for now. It was a rather simple order. I ordered Beta to pile up all reports and put them in a spot so I could read through them. I told Alpha to take good care of everyone.

I spent two years alone with the occasional visit from Beta, Delta or Zeta. Minoru is rather good at keeping people company as well. During that time we trained nonstop. Minoru worked on whatever he wanted while I worked on my own. . . Unique power set.

In my first life I was a massive nerd. Anime, Manga, Manwa, all of it was my shit. Thanks to this world and life I can duplicate some of the things I came up with. Minoru focused on training our body and its magic. But I, I focused on one of my own selfish desires.

Magic in its own right is cool, but due to all the Isekai's and shit I watched. It kinda. . . Lost its touch. Don't get me wrong, magic is the shit, but when you have so much potential and so many ideas. Magic becomes one of the specs of dust in your arsenal.

It was during my personal training, I learned a lot about this world, such as the fact Elemental Magic hardly exists. I mean Artifacts exist but they suck compared to everything else. What was I talking about? Right, my unique power set. I took everything I learned throughout every anime I watched and applied it.

I'm the only person that can use Elemental Magic at will. . . Well, kinda anyways, technically that magic I use isn't the magic of this world. Thanks to Minoru, I figured out a way of incorporating a different form of power. Onmyōdō, it's a hard one to explain. So I won't bother, not like anyone hears my monologue.
