Day 死?

I think I’m lost...

I was exploring what's beyond the metropolis, and now I can’t find my little shelter.... I must’ve gone too deep into the woods.

It’s getting colder, too. The sky’s turned from blue to grey, and the “sun” looks like it’s setting.

I’m quite scared... It’s dark, and it’s cold...

"You’re strong, Noelle. You’ve survived four days in this strange place. You can make it a few more, right? You’ll be home soon..."

Right?

Fahaha...

My school uniform really isn’t warm enough for this.... I don’t know where I am, or where I’m going. This place feels completely different. Maybe I really did leave that metropolis...

Maybe I’m somewhere entirely unknown.... I don't know!?

The trees, I feel like they’re watching me.... Which is silly, because they’re just trees... How can they be "watching me?"

Maybe I’m just being paranoid.... Fahaha...

Oh... I just remembered something....

During my stay here, I've kept having these strange dreams about an angel descending from the heavens to reach out to me... Maybe the angel really does exist?

It looked like a bright little orb... No?... A White Flower, with wings around it. And it spoke to me....more than once.

Its voice was kinda hot tbh... reminded me of one of those ASMR videos I used to watch.... Fahaha...

I can’t remember exactly what it said. Something about a prophecy, I think...

And that I was “the girl.” The girl...

Well, that one was a bit weird, route....

Oh!.... Right. I’m in a dark forest. Fahah...

At least I can hear birds singing... That’s reassuring, I guess?

I've read online that the forest goes quiet when there’s a predator nearby, so birds chirping must be a good sign...

Hopefully....

Wait... Why are these weird birds up at nig- nevermind...

It has gotten darker... Yet darker...

I don’t have a flashlight, so maybe I should stay where I am for the night.

I could dig a little hole and cover it with branches... Then sleep in it?

I think that would be safer than just aimlessly wandering around in the dark.

I remember having done something like that in Minecraft on my first night, Fahaha...

I didn’t have enough wool to make a bed, so I just... waited until morning.

So... yeah... I’m going to wait out the night.... And hopefully not die? Fahaha

Hi, Kris!... What are you doing here!?

...Huh?

Where’s Kris?

Oh, right. I’m... not home.

Fahah... Fah...

I think I’m starting to lose my mind. Fahahah.

Angel... Please... Get me out of here... I want to go home...

Get me out of here!

Please!!!!

(Astilla pov)

Upon entering the third floor of this sphere, the Fun Gang is met with… a pale garden.

A garden filled with pale flora and colorless flowers... There are Flocks of white butterflies fluttering in the air*

The whiteness of the place fills you with disgust...it's too... Light for your liking

One of the butterflies lands on your nose.*

“How disgusting..."

*You attempt to crush it with your hand, expecting its body to explode into a bug goop... Instead, the butterfly simply phases through your skin...*

*After wandering through the garden for a while, the Fun Gang encounters a figure.*

It's a tall, humanoid figure with multiple limbs, a well dressed one in all black clothing... they seem to have A pair of enormous butterfly wings covering their face.

The moment he notices the Fun Gang, he speaks.

“Oh, poor souls… Oh, poor souls… Have you come here to seek liberation from your suffering?”

"I’ll help liberate you from tormenting yourselves."

*Its words remind you of those angels... It fills you with disgust.

It doesn't really seem to be hostile.... It's just... Standing there?

So what would you do?

(Just in case you somehow trigger a battle)

[Encounter Start]

Funeral of the Butterflies

[Danger Level: Low Calamity ]

(The classification is only because they possess an instant destined death ability, Their durability and physical strength is that of a high special grade entity.*

Encounter Effects

Tree of Life

Proelium Fatale: Lasciate Ogni Speranza, Voi Ch'Entrate: All revival abilities are rendered null. Once you die here, no amount of plot armor can save you from death. (Made specifically to fuck with Grimm and create an environment in which the stakes are high and real for once)

Tranquility: If hit by a butterfly four times, Funeral of the Dead Butterflies randomly seals one of the target’s abilities for the remainder of the encounter.

Lament: Funeral of the Dead Butterflies can command and control every butterfly within its area of effect... Each hit from a butterfly damages 10% of the target’s soul. (10 hits to die forever, dw this can be healed outside of this encounter)

Cannot be reflected or redirected by manipulating space around oneself... The butterflies do not follow the laws of physics.

“Come Sweet Death”

A charged up attack from the funeral of the dead butterflies is much more effective against an individual carrying the most amount of grief, depression, black souls (suicidal intent) in their heart.

Deals 99% soul damage to that specific target (50% damage to normal people)

(Just dodge the attack lmao)

Butterfly Form: Funeral of the Dead Butterflies can transform into a small butterfly to avoid attacks.

Coffin: an indestructible coffin that it uses to block attacks, can transform into a mini gun when needed.

(Mimsy Pov, again... Honestly we need more people)

*After twenty minutes of fighting through hordes of machines and following the estimate provided by clock guy, you finally reach the facility’s core.*

It is a gigantic construct of pipes, wires, and metal, constructed on top of a hot purplish energy source.

*You stare at the structure in the distance for a moment before asking Crowley's magic to leap toward it.*

[Light is Space]

*You enter through a door on the rooftop and prepare yourself for battle, expecting some kind of security system to be waiting inside.*

After several minutes of walking, you are led to a room, a room filled with a foul stench blood

*Your vision locks onto on the figures inside.*

*Humans...?*

*They look human... But many of their facial features look... Off?**

*As you explore deeper into the core, you begin to hear something.*

*A sweet melody.*

*A truly beautiful melody.*

*You listen... and listen... and listen...*

Slowly, you begin to lose yourself within it... The music feels... Nice?

*It sounds like... freedom.*

Astilla notices you sinking deeper into your daze and very lightly slaps your face*

The sudden pain snaps you out of your trance

*At the center of the room stands the source of the melody... The singing machine.*

A massive metal box, buzzing like a meat grind as it produces the most beautiful song ever played in your entire lives

*The dazzled figures having noticed your presence, move from their previously positions... They raise their axes and charge toward your squad, laughing maniacally as they begin their attack.*

[Encounter Start]

Singing Machine

Danger Level: "The Air Crackles with Freedom"

Encounter Effects

Tree of Life

The Freedom Motif:

The machine produces a calming melody that drives anyone who hears it into madness, causing them to become obsessed with achieving freedom from something or someone.

Harmony:

All individuals affected by the melody receive a significant boost... As long as the song continues to play, they can instantly regenerate from their wounds and attack with incredible speed.

*The Abnormality hid inside a dense sphere made out of tough vines as attacks rained down upon it from every direction. Each hit tore through another layer of its defense, with every strike, the damage dealt to the Abnormality grew increasingly more severe until its protective barrier couldn't hold itself together.

*After the second strike from Mimsy's Harpoon, the sphere of vines shielding it finally shattered like an egg shell*

[Its defense dropped to 0]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5qajT8lS2ok

*Having spent every last drop of its ability to conjure up defensive vines, the Abnormality knew that it was going to be defeated eventually and abandoned the concept of defense entirely.

*so it redirected all of its remaining strength toward offense...*

*It forged a pact, a binding vow with itself... in exchange for giving up its ability to defend, its attacks would become significantly more powerful.*

[Imagine Hanami's Ult]

*Just as they believed they had won, spikes suddenly erupted from beneath them... They pierced through their bodies before anyone had time to react, catching them completely off guard.*

*having defeated the previous abnormalities from the third floor... you move up to the fourth floor of malkuth*

*Upon entering the fourth floor... you are met with a dark and dingy... dank and wet environment?... the floor here is muddy... the environment is full of dangling vines and roots everywhere*

*ignoring everything... you begin searching for entrance to the final floor of this sphere... after searching the expansive space for hours... you find a glowing entrance that's blocked by thick vines... your squad tries everything... use every spell and everything to break it apart... yet nothing ever happens*

*suddenly, an apple falls from the sky...*

*having noticed the apple... you inspect it... it has a bite taken out of it... a small bite*

*then you start to notice the apples... there are apples everywhere... and when there are apples... there are dead people... animals... corpses scattered across the muddy landscape*

*this has to be a work of abnormality... you think to yourself*

*while searching for the cause... you stumble across a giant apple tree in the middle of it all... the sky seems to have an artificial sun... that glows and feels like the real sun*

*your squad carefully approaches the apples tree... then it suddenly moves*

*and looks you dead In eyes...*

"I envy you... your ability to move... your ability to wander wherever you wish... while I am just a tree... rooted here in this miserable darkness... a tree who can't see what's beyond this dark place...who is cursed to remain here and watch the world pass by... it makes me... hate"

"I envy you... your freedom... how come you be privileged?... how come you get to enjoy your sweet little freedom... while I remain rootedin the mud?... it's not fair... none of this is fair"

"so I began to hate... hate.... I was in hell, looking at heaven... forced to watch those who could move freely while I could do nothing, NOTHING!"

"Every being who entered this place only made my hatred grow... What a sick joke!..."

"I will make sure to drag you down with me... let's rot together in hell then!, I'll make sure you suffer the same... I'll take away your freedom... I'll make sure your spirit remains trapped here with me... forever"

*it's roots suddenly bursts forth from the ground...*

Encounter Start

[Snow White's Apple]

[Danger Level: Low Calamity (First Calamity of the Sphere... Don't underestimate them baka!)]

Applied Effects for this Encounter

Tree of Life (you know)

Malice: if you were to be pierced by snow white's apple... And individuals suffer an infectious growth that rapidly spreads from the pierced spot to the rest of the body... the only way to treat this is to cut off your affected part before it can spread further... this effect applies to organic and inorganic matter too, infected parts can be controlled by the abnormality

"Strangling Vines": everyone inside it's area of influence is glued to the ground... walking around is possible but it's really difficult... cannot jump higher than the average human in this area.

It's roots may appear out of the ground inside this area to attack... avoid them to the best of your abilities.

Poisoned Apple: disturbing or destroying it's apples releases a toxic substance that can get everywhere... this substance corrodes away the body, mind, soul if not treated in time.

Wall of Vines: Snow White's apple can create vines that can shield it from harm, It's vines can only be damaged by abilities that cut space or fire lmao... abnormality can survive being sucked and warped by abilities that warp space (black holes) as the vines seems to have the anomalous effect of being able to shield it from basically anything.

weakness: attacks that directly hit the abnormality's core, fire (somewhat effective against the vines...)

*As you travel from the second floor of Malkuth Sphere to the third, the environment switches from The ugly kindergarten into a lush rainforest filled with vibrant flora and beautiful piss colored lakes of honey*

*The first thing that gets your attention from a glance is the colossal structure in the shape of a tower, Worker bees are transporting materials from the earth into the sky, tirelessly working to build a gigantic beehive that reaches toward the ceiling of this sphere*

*You pause to observe your environment for a moment then continue your journey towards the floor’s exit.*

*But... your path is blocked by the Fairy Queen.*

“Finally… a feast fit for a queen. Come, my offspring. Let us eat... Real dessert!"

((Sweet!))

*Before you have a chance to do anything, the Fairy Queen and her goons lunges forwards your squad*

*Just as you thought this shit couldn't get any worse... the Tower of Beebel... Starts moving, producing worker bees as its worker bees emerge from it to join the jumping*

[[Encounter Start]]

[[Fairy Festival & Queen Bee]]

[[Danger Level: High Special Grade ]]

[[Each Minion is a High WAW (Aleph)]]

Applied Effects for this Encounter

Tree of Life

Lifesteal

Whenever a fairy damages a target, it takes away a portion of that individual’s power... Each successful attack gradually weakens the victim while simultaneously strengthening the fairy and the queen.

Gluttony

If given the opportunity, the Fairy Queen may consume her own offspring to gain a massive increase in power... The strength of this enhancement depends on how many fairies she devours... The Fairy Queen can also spawn additional minions during combat.

The Tower That Reached for Heaven

The Tower of Beebel can only be damaged from within... Its tuff exterior is completely immune to outside attacks.

The beehive can spawn worker bees from openings across its surface to defend itself.

Parasitism

Any attack from a worker bee infects the target with bee larvae... The larvae require 4 turns to hatch.

If the infection is not removed or treated in time, the larvae will burst through the target’s body... This effect applies to both organic and inorganic matter...

Inhaling the spores released by the beehive causes the same infection.

Hive Mind

All worker bees share a single collective consciousness and can instantly transmit knowledge between one another... Which is... Really bad.

Weaknesses

Fire

Area of effect attacs

(Nukes are best for this)

With his heart in sorrow…

So he laments,

Watching the whole wide world

From a graveyard

Way up high in the sky,

With the moonlight in his eyes.

Ain’t it sad...

A life forever for

Funerals.

Scorched Girl if she was an ALEPH.

​

*???*

*The girl was returning home from her minimum wage slavery j*b at the local fast food chain in her city. Having received her first paycheck, she wanted to celebrate by buying a drink from the convenience store.*

*She returned home with a single bottle of Big Shot Beer in her hand, having spent all her money on that one expensive bottle of beer*

*She turned on the TV, opened the fridge, and grabbed the one singular egg that was still in there.*

*She had forgotten to pay her water bill, so she couldn’t boil the egg. She was planning on eating it raw.*

*She looked at the window for a second and saw something yellow and pink... She rubbed her eyes, and they were gone*

“Eh… it’s probably nothing.”

*She turned on the TV.*

“I wonder if they’ve finished the second episode of

Steel Ball Run* already... I was hoping to see more of that anime... I don’t feel like reading the manga at all... That would make me "uncool" and an "anime nerd"... Larping it is cooler... Everyone does it nowadays..."

"Wait... what the fuck do mean They still haven’t finished the second episode of *Steel Ball Run*"

“Where the hell is my episode, [Netflix]?”

*Frustrated that she couldn’t watch one of her favorite anime series, she flipped through the TV apps and threw a beer bottle at the screen.*

*By some miracle bestowed upon by God themselves.. The Tv screen didn't break... A divine intervention just saved Hana from yet another one of her self sabotage attempts... That could have permanently ruined her life... Not that she has a life anyways*

“Fuck this shit, man!”

“These big producers can’t do anything right... They’ll animate anything but JoJo. I mean, for real, for real… what the fuck even is ChainSmoker Cat*?"

*She tried to calm herself down*

"It's alright Hana... It's not their fault... Peaks takes time... Remember?... Just be patient... Just be patient... Just be patient... Just be patient like a good girl... God will eventually reward me for my patience... Right?*

*She switched apps and started watching random anime until she fell asleep.*

//NEXT DAY//

“Man, I wish I had cool powers like Satoru Gojo. My life could’ve been more interesting… If only I had the power to do something about my debts... Like Satoru Gojo... When he talked about killing the higher ups... If only I could just... Kill... People... That stood in the way of my dream life... Those landlords... The debt collectors... Everyone that picked on me in school..."

"Faha... What a silly day dream... I am just a normal human... That has to do normal human things... I don't have the wings to fly away from my problems"

"The sky looks beautiful... It's a shame... I am nothing more than a cog in the city's night'

*Having said all that, she boarded the bus and returned back to her j*b... Like the miserable little cog in the system she was...*
