Grim Reaper in the Apocalypse: Reaping Immortals

Atlan looked towards the fairies to see if they were the ones behind this, but they seemed as shocked as him, if not more.

He watched as an amulet given to him by Tulip started to fly towards the fairies. The only reason why it hadn't flown away from his body at this point was because the rope was still tied around his neck.

'What's happening?' he asked them.

But the three fairies were too stunned to even answer his question. They all looked at the amulet in his neck as if their entire world had just been turned around.

'Human…where did you get that?'

'That's supposed to be Tulip's…'

'Did…did she give that to you voluntarily?'

Atlan looked at the three fairies and was starting to get annoyed. All the things he considered normal always seemed to be something special in their eyes. First, he thought that learning Tulip's name was not a big deal, but it turns out, it made him the prophesied prince of whatever. Now, the amulet she gave him was also starting to become strange.

'Yes…I found it at your burned house, but when I returned it to her, she wanted to give it to me. I couldn't refuse. Should I have?'

Judging from their shocked faces, it seemed to signal to him that there was something wrong with the amulet.

'No, it's good that you have it…it's…it's…'

Atlan couldn't take it anymore. 'It's what?' he asked, annoyed.

'It's fate that she gave you that amulet,' said the red fairy bluntly. 'It has been prophesied that Tulip would give the prophesied prince the amulet of protection. It has also been said that this amulet is what helps in the defeat of the Magical Queen, Malificient.'

Atlan looked at the floating amulet in his chest. From his perspective, the amulet looked nothing like nothing special at all. Even when he used all his observational powers to scrutinize it, there wasn't any leakage of power from the object. It was only a normal amulet.

'If you didn't want to become the prophesied prince, then you shouldn't have accepted it. But now that you have it in your possession, there is no mistaking it. You are the chosen one.'

Atlan still didn't believe in fate and prophecies. Just because Tulip gave him her name and this amulet didn't mean he suddenly became the prince that was prophesied in their dreams. It was absurd to think about because everything was a coincidence.

He pulled the amulet off his neck and let it float towards the three good fairies.

'Have it yourself,' he said. 'There's nothing special with that.'

Just then, the amulet stopped and floated in front of the three fairies, as if waiting for their action.

'You are right. This amulet is nothing special, but that is because it is incomplete. You need to connect it to the other pieces in order to truly see the magic that this amulet hides.'

Just then, the three good fairies waved their hands and summoned something from behind them.

A portal with the same color as their dresses appeared and shot out a small fragment of metal.

The three fairies then started casting some spells, uttering some nonsense words that Atlan couldn't understand. But he knew that they were doing something weird. He could feel their power spike up to its peak as they continued to utter a large spell.

Suddenly, the three metals they summoned as well as the amulet started to revolve around each other.

Atlan watched as the edges of the objects revolving around each other started to glow a bright neon blue.

At the same time as the three fairies reached a crescendo in their spell casting, the four objects stopped revolving in the air.

Then, the three metals converged upon each other, smashing into its glowing sides with power that should have shattered them into mere pieces.

But magically, those three metals perfectly merged into one single unit.

It was at this point that Atlan realized something. The combination of those three metals was the complete mirror shape of the floating amulet.

'Reveal the amulet, the one to guide the light to ward off the darkness!' the three fairies shouted, accompanied by a booming shockwave that caused power from their bodies to transfer to the single metal unit.

Then, the two crashed.

The single metal part combined with the amulet, forming a single unit.

And the resulting shape…was a tulip flower.

The floating tulip amulet then started to glow with power, as if an ancient god was about to awaken. Atlan started to back away as the mere pressure emitted by this power was more than enough to make him stumble and fall to his knees.

This kind of power was even stronger than Maleficoent or the Enchanted Queen.

He had never seen this kind of power in an object before.

Finally, the object glowed a bright white light until everything in the dungeon prison was enveloped in a blinding light.

Atlan had to close his eyes.

After a few seconds, the light died down and he could finally open his eyes.

And what he saw was the tulip-shaped amulet floating in the air, and glowing with power. The pressure was much more tamer than before, but anyone could see that it was a magical item.

The three fairies took a big breath.

'Human, take the amulet. It is yours to possess,' they said simultaneously.

But even though it looked like it could give him tremendous power, Atlan was a bit hesitant. That was because by accepting the amulet, he would be accepting the fact that he was the prophesied prince.

If he was going to save Tulip, then he was going to save her because he wanted to, not because some prophecy dictated him to.

'There is no use denying fate, human. It is your destiny.'

Before Atlan could even say something, the amulet suddenly flew towards his neck and attached itself to his body just like before.

It was far too fast for him to even react.

But once it had taken its cozy place in his chest, the glowing died down and acted as nothing more than a normal amulet.
