Fate Uncoded : The Destiny Breaker

Chapter 16: Chapter 16 : slime king



Well it was a fascinating day

But I had plans booked I I must leave 

Then I said to the king,

"Time has come. I better go."

Then he said,

"Aren't you going to stay the night, at least?"

Then I said,

"I'm really sorry, Your Highness, but I gotta go."

Then he said,

"Listen, you've got a very good talent. Don't waste it. Actually, I have something to talk about with you. Let's head over there and have a private chat."

Then we went over there and he said,

"This year, there are eight of the strongest magicians said to come from the other world. You already know about the connection between our world and theirs."

I said,

"Yes, already."

Then he said,

"They have a power issue—you know, they have infinite mana. They barely get tired. One of them is the one chosen to represent us. Her name is Rim Al-Zahra.

She has other members in her team: Fysal, Hana, Heyan, and Zeyd.

There will be an academy opened globally, and this year they're starting an S-grade class. Only five students from each of the eight kingdoms will be selected—

forty students total—

the strongest ones only.

As you already know,

I can't recruit you…

nor Zephyr.

But I can promote you.

This year is almost over, and Christmas is coming.

I want you to help me find three other strong, special aura users like you two.

I'll help negotiate with you."

Then I said,

"I would love it, Your Highness. Thank you for your kindness, my king. I won't fail you."

We talked a bit more, and I said I should go.

Then Hana came again and said,

"Sorry for shouting at you the other day."

Then I said,

"It's nothing. I mean, you're his girlfriend—you can't just stay silent. I get it."

And as I was walking,

she asked my name and said she didn't know it.

Then I said to her,

"My name is Ebisu Teta."

I said it and lied.

Zephyr said,

"I always thought your name was Delta."

Then I said,

"That's a decoy name."

And he said,

"So, Mr. Teta..."

Then I cut him off and said,

"Ohh, give me a break—call me Ebisu."

Then he said,

"Okay, Ebisu..."

I cut him off again and said,

"Nah, actually call me broo."

Then he said,

"Okay, okay, I get it, bruh. Listen, are you really going to go?"

Then I said to him,

"You better get your damn ass moving. You said you know someone who can join our team."

Then he said,

"Yeah."

And I said,

"You better bring him before Christmas and let him stay.

I'll do the same."

Then he said,

"Deal."

I replied,

"Yeah, deal, broo,"

and walked out.

Outside, I met Fysal and he said,

"You better train hard—

not even you can beat my second stage realm."

Then I said,

"Good for you."

And he said,

"Thanks, broo. First time I'm saying thanks."

Then I said,

"Well, it's okay."

He said,

"Uncle told me you guys are coming to the academy."

Then I said,

"You bet."

He said,

"You better not come with that loser ass of yours.

Even I can't compare to them—

they're really strong."

Then I said,

"Well, that's not the case now though, is it?"

Then he said,

"Yeah, that's right.

I don't know…

I might have already surpassed some of them."

Then he said,

"Until we meet next time—see ya."

And I went to the Sakura land.

After what happened, I left the kingdom and went to Sakura Land.

It was the cleanest and most developed city I'd ever seen.

It was just like Japan—and anime was everywhere.

It's like anime had already become a culture in this land.

The most interesting part was that they had PlayStation centers, where you could play games for hours—just like in Japan.

So I walked in, ate so much food, and played games the whole day.

Then I went into a cinema and watched the best anime movie ever.

I even forgot why I came here in the first place.

There's a mountain here.

The mountain is called Mountain...,

and near it is a forest.

There are no monsters in it,

and it's considered the best and quietest nature park ever.

Unlike other mountains where they hide demons or monsters,

this one was never in any drama.

But here's the twist—

logically, this one is the worst ever.

Inside the mountain,

there's a portal that leads to a nonexistent land on this planet...

The origin of slime came from there.

Yes, that's right—

I'm going to see the Slime King.

While I was crossing the road,

everyone suddenly stopped.

I was like,

"Why the heck is everyone standing still?"

Then a very flashy car-like object passed by.

The person in front?

The strongest aura farmer ever to exist on Earth.

They call him Kieran fenric.

Behind him,

I saw Rajin and Yosuke.

They saw me.

Even though I look like my original self, Kurai,

I still look a bit different.

Rajin saw me and used his magic—

he ran at me with lightning speed, trying to catch me.

But when he was about to reach me,

I used Dash and flashed forward while running.

He followed me.

Just when he caught my hand,

I swapped myself with someone I touched on the road.

The guy screamed,

"Please don't kill me!"

Rajin said,

"Was that... déjà vu?"

Then Yosuke, standing on a tree, said,

"My eyes never miss details—there's definitely someone with that look nearby."

Rajin said,

"You're really strong.

One by one, I bet you've even surpassed me.

I remember the days when you were just a weakling,

shooting a gun and acting all high and mighty."

Yosuke laughed and said,

"Stop it. That's embarrassing.

By the way, have you contacted the others?"

Rajin nodded.

"Yeah. Dante said he already formed his crew.

They're planning to burn the whole school."

Yosuke said,

"Well, I heard Jian and Mei have become so strong

they even fight in wars now.

But they're still obsessed with each other."

Rajin said,

"I feel bad for Lyra.

So many hot guys, rich people, strong fighters—even nobles and princes have proposed to her.

But no one really gets to even know her, let alone be with her."

Yosuke said,

"She's kinda loyal though.

At this point, he could be considered dead.

But forget about his girlfriend.

Even we are still trying to find him in our kingdom."

Rajin said,

"Yeah, what a shame.

I wanna see David.

He became the strongest.

He's expected to beat that as

shat Rowan.

I heard Rowan's been doing well.

Everyone says he's the hottest, the best ever…

What a shame."

So anyway we are gonna beat the crap out of them right .

Yosuke said,

"You kidding we will swipe the floor with their damn face."

After that, Kieran Fenric came and said, "You two, stop chatting and get back to the car." They responded, "Yes, sir." Then he paused and said, "Wait a second. I sense someone's presence."

I was using the Cloak Sigma wear to remain invisible, but suddenly, he appeared right in front of me and said, "You." When he touched me, I was shocked—terrified, actually. He was terrifyingly fast. I teleported to the deepest part of the mountain, breathing heavily, my legs shaking. I couldn't believe how fast he was. Then, from behind, he said, "Are you here?"

I was shocked again. Who the heck is this guy? He looked straight at me and said, "I'm only asking once. Who are you and what are you doing here?" I snapped my fingers, thinking I was still perfectly invisible—yet he could see me.

In a panic, I snapped again and swapped him with a random customer I had seen earlier in a bag bar zone. He reappeared, looked around, and said, "I knew it," then ran back, chasing me again. In order to swap him again, I had to touch him—but he almost caught me.

Just before he could grab me, the earth swallowed me. I don't know how, but suddenly, I was deep underground. Everything around me turned colorful, like I was being transported to another world. Eventually, I landed in front of a grand castle. The doors opened on their own.

Inside, a pretty slime showed me the way. It led me through a corridor and said, "Enter." I entered the room, and someone inside laughed hard.

"You're really funny!" the voice said. "Seriously!"

"So, who's laughing?" I asked.

A girl stepped forward and said, "My name is Noa Enma."

I asked, "Are you the Slime King?"

She laughed again and replied, "I'm the Slime Queen."

Just then, a loud "Boom!" echoed, and I said, "He's here."

They laughed again. A guy stepped in and said, "I really saved your ass—even before you met me. Back when you became one, you were such a loser."

He continued, "Not gonna lie, I don't think I'm gonna survive this either. I could hold my own, but would I win? Maybe. Anyway, here we are, meeting at last. I am the Slime King the name's kazuki kagemaru nice to meet you one fourth of kurai delta

Delta(ebisu) said,

"You make it sound creepy chill broo chill"

Kazuki said,

"That girl sitting on the throne is my wife."

I looked at them. "You guys are just kids—maybe a year older than me. And you're married?"

He shrugged. "I love her so much I want to marry her. We're not married yet, but we're considered as one."

Then he said, "From here on out, I'm going to train you. You'll become strong, I swear."

I interrupted, "Actually, I want you to join me as a student at the academy."

He said, "Nah, bro. I decline."

"What do you mean by that?" I asked. "Please, just tell me. I want to experience academy life. I won't be the strongest in the group, but I at least want to bring someone strong. What do you say?"

He asked, "What's your prime reason for wanting to join the academy?"

I replied, "To be by Lyra's side."

"Are you going to contact her and talk to her?"

"No, I'm not. As long as I can make sure she won't be hurt by my actions, I'll ensure she lives a decent and better life. If I'm a jerk who doesn't deserve her—wasting her youth—I'll let her move on. I'll even confirm to her that I'm dead."

Noa shouted, "You care about her that much?!"

I answered, "When you have someone to protect, someone necessary to you, it doesn't matter what happens to you. What matters is protecting them. And it's worse when it's a partner you love."

Noa screamed, "That's not it! That's not the problem! It's not like that!" She cried. "If she loves you, she would do the same for you!"

The kazuki said, "Forget it. Sit down."

A comfy slime came over and laid behind me. I sat down and leaned back.

He began to tell me a story: "When I was a kid, my father was a magnet for problems. Wherever he went, trouble followed. Everyone thought it was just his life—but it was a curse. A curse inflicted by a human-demon named moirai's veil

Once cursed, you couldn't escape unless a powerful demon break the cursed for you …"

I managed to marry someone at least, and she gave birth to me. We lived a happy life. My father thought his curse would go away if he tried, but no one understood it and everyone judged him. Even though I loved him, I still wanted a better father. So when I was a kid, I always compared him to others.

When I got into an academy and registered as a hunter student, my mom died from an unknown curse—no cause—and she just suddenly died. Only my dad and I knew that she died because of my father's curse. Afterwards, my father began to lose hope and eventually changed. He began to get drunk and always spent time on TV. Even after a year, he became a completely useless man.

I got bullied and discriminated against because of him. Everyone began to say, "No matter what you do, a failed product is a failed product." After years, my father met someone at a drinking bar, and he was so captivated by her beauty because she looked just like my mom. He wanted to meet her and eventually did. They married, and that's when I met Noa. She is my stepsister.

I always felt bad for her. My stepmom planned to make her a hoe and use her to get some money, but I began to show her a future she wanted. I always made her look cute and showed her how to smile. I taught her everything, and since she transferred to our school, she became top-notch and famous. But my stepmom didn't like what was going on.

My stepmom brings money, and my father is just like that. We both were alone and broke, so I worked part-time and brought some money every day. I always gave her money so she wouldn't feel like she was falling behind. I was the most hated and bullied character, and she was the polar opposite—but no one knew we were stepbrother and sister.

One day, everyone asked her what kind of boys she liked, and she was actually describing the core me. They told her if she had a crush on someone, and she said she did—it was me. After a while, they all said I'm a failure, and the boys began to hate me even more.

Then she confessed to me in front of everyone and said, "For myself, it's okay if you turn me down. I'm used to embarrassment and humiliation." I said, "I love you too," and we became a couple outside the home, but stepbrother and sister in the house.

She spent every hour at school with me so the bullies wouldn't get time to bully me. I never expected this from her, but it backfired on us when her mom found out what we had been doing. At home, her mom wanted to destroy her pretty face with fire. I defended her and slapped my stepmom, and my father beat me up. Everything was chaos.

Then I said, "You guys never needed us in the first place. I'm leaving," and took her with me. With heavy anger, regret, and pain, we both ran to the forest as far as we could. We ran—we ran faster—and eventually, just like how you fall, we fell here.

Kazuki is a slime, but a parasitic one that can't live alone and needs a vessel. So he took me as one. As much as I despised demons and becoming one, I wanted power—to rule myself. Power is the only thing I want. So they took me as one, and now I'm Kazuki, the Slime King.

From that point on, I gave her a very rare slime called Inventor Slime, and that's how she became like me and is here now. So we live alone here. You get what I'm saying.

Then I replied to Kazuki and said, "What happened to your family?"

He said, "You're really sharp. I became a demon king, so I was able to lift the curse of my father and gave her mom medicine to forget her past. So they began to, and she became with no memory, lived a happy life. They moved on to another place. Father bought land after selling his house, and he is a farmer. My stepmom is the one who buys and sells, so I can never show my face again. I mean, we got to be together."

And now we are like this. Worst-case scenario, they have a child. So yeah, even though my stepmom won't remember her, it still feels like I did something.

Then I said, "It's okay. Not like they were properly married after all. They actually began the real marriage and

life after you guys already became couples—"

It was kinda heart breaking as well as lovely story.
