The Absolute: Humanity's Second Chance

She tried to hide her worry within herself, but it was hard to do such a thing. Luckily, both King and Queen had yet to realize that she was worried.

"Is the something your Majesty would like us to do, in this matter?" The man that reported everything bowed his head lower and asked for further instructions.

"No. For now, just watch and keep me updated on what's going on." The King said, and his words were final.

The man nodded then stood up, bowed once again to the Queen and Princess, then left the throne room just like that.

Meanwhile, the princess was all the more worried, yet did not dare say a word at all. She just humbly lowered her head, and frowned.

"..."

*** Princess Loptr ***

"Father, mother, if you may excuse me." I stood up from my throne, and humbly lowered my head to my parents who sat besides me.

It was both out of respect and fear.

"Leaving already, princess?" My father, the king of this City Stronghold, asked with a smile. It was a smile that I presumed had no emotions within.

"Yes. I do not feel well." I added, not pointing out that fact. He nodded his head to me in understanding, as the smile left his face.

Mother turned to look at me briefly, then turned away once again. She barely gives me attention. Hence we barely talk at all. But by now, I am already used to that.

I was never close with niether my parents, nor my siblings. There was no bond to bound us together anyway.

I hence left the throne room and hurried all the way to my room. It was a bit far away, yet not completely that far.

I hurriedly arrived and shut down my door. I then hurriedly off to my bed and threw myself upon it, without a care of my etiquette.

"Aaaaarrgghhh!!!" I stuffed my head within one of my soft, airy pillows and screamed my lungs out. I was frustrated. I was angry. I was despairing. I was just sad.

This was not fair.

Why was everything happening to begin with? And why am I connected to it?!

I cried out every word with bitterness. My mind was jumbled up, and I was definitely within a cycle of self blame.

Some may ask why was I even in such a state, when I clearly knew I was mentally wounding myself. It was simple.

[ TING!! ]

[ You have caused misery for tens of people. Plus +5,3 Life Essence obtained ]

[ You have caused misery for tens of people. Plus +3,7 Life Essence obtained ]

[ You have caused misery for tens of people. Plus +8,9 Life Essence obtained ]

[ You have... ]

[ You have... ]

[ You have caused misery for yourself. Plus +10 Life Essence obtained ]

[ You have leveled up ]

"..."

It was because of this wretched Class of mine. I was termed as <The Fool>.

It sounded badass and cool. I know. But then again, I am just a young maiden. Why am I suffering from all of this?

And it was not something I chose. But IT chose me!! Why me out of all people?!

Haaah~

I sighed in anger, then my thoughts drifted back to the definition of the Class.

[ The Fool (HIDDEN) ]

[ Introduction: The Providence of one who will become the last one standing, the one who will will be the downfall of the gods, the demise of the outer, the vengeance of the primals, and the one who belongs nowhere... The final trickster that shall usher in the End of Times. One who Fools. One who is a Fool. And one who has been Fooled ]

[ Potential: Unrivaled Potential that stretches to cover the whole of Existence, and possibly transcend all Restrictions, Rules and Mandates of Existence and rule over all that are below. To become the Ender of Existence ]

[ Class Bonuses: +3 SP to INT, WIS and AFF every level up, +8 Free SP every level up, +8 AP every level up, +700% Life Essence required to Level up, +400% to Mana every level up ]

[ Class Skills: "Child of Misfortune", "Taboo Blood", "Thousand Faces", "Giant's Domain", "The Fool" ]

[ Comment: A Class that ultimately calls upon the destruction of everything related to the user. There would always bring Misfortune everywhere... and the cause will always be... you ]

"..."

This was my fate. But the thing that nerves me the most, is the comment below.

How is it my fault? I didn't do anything. Nor did I choose this class to begin with. It chose me. IT. Chose. Me.

I am innocent!!

But most importantly, the place where my beloved lives, is the place that my Misfortune has unexpectedly attacked.

Why am I at fault? You may ask. Well that's simple. The reason was one of my Class Skills. One that I dread the most.

[ Taboo Blood (CLASS): An Ability that sends out the Primal Bloodline of <The Fool> to a chosen being that resonates more with it, to spread the purpose and thoughts of their parent. Occurs automatically. Passive Ability. Targets included: Alpha Wolf(Progressing), ??? ]

This...

This was the reason why I was blaming myself so much. It was my blood that made the Alpha Wolf to be born. It was my blood that made it this strong.

It was my blood that gave it a terrifying Evolutionary Path. It was my blood that would take the life of my beloved. My prince charming.

Aaaaarrgghhh!!!

I hate myself. I hate my life. I hate my fate. I hate... I hate...

"..."

Tears broke down out of my eyes once again, and I stuffed my face into my pillow. There was no going back from this one. My life is ruined. It's over.

A moment of silence occurred, and I silently cried, while thinking about ways to easily off myself. Until when an idea struck me.

"Wait, there is something I can do... I think there is." I hurriedly checked the definition of my Abilities, and found the one I was dearly looking for at the moment.

[ Thousand Faces (CLASS): The Ability that can change the face of the user into a thousand faces, a hundred races, ten forms and a single destiny. Nobody either than mid ranked gods and above, or those with abundant Fates and Fortune can easily tell you apart ]

Yes. This one. All I just need is time to implant my plan. After all, it would still take the wolves tens of days, or even a month to gather up at where my kin is.

I thought and stood up from my bed, wiping the tears on my face. In the meanwhile, I made sure to steel my heart for the actions that I was going to make.

It was no different than playing two countries, two powerhouses, two Strongholds.

Yet it has to be done.

Time ticked by, and the next day arrived. I bathed, made myself look descent and wore descent clothing.

I then had breakfast with my family, my brothers being out. Somewhere at the army, trying to obtain a few pointers, or so they claim.

They are out hunting for strong fellows to work for them. I myself was the only sister amongst all us three siblings. But that did not matter.

After breakfast, I left with my maid and guards, exploring the city. From there, I ordered to stay within a inn for the weekend. My guards were sent back to tell my father, and he responded with a yes.

I knew he cared less for me.

Anyway, I then changed my face, my race, and my form. The race change was not obvious enough as I was still completely human.

I was just a different variation of human, ones that I once saw, that reside within the Northern Cardinal. I saw a few when I entered here today, so it would not seem strange to see one leave.

I thus told my trusted maid to stay put as I would be back. She was mine, and only mine. We were bound by a far stronger bond than my family. She would never betray me.

I left the inn, then immediately left the City Stronghold from there.

Then I immediately changed form once again, taking in the form of a being that would be found within our vanguard city, the Shade Stronghold, where my beloved was.

I also wore military clothes that could be found from their army. We had some due to us having killed a few of their men back then, during our pioneering era.

As the princess, I had my ways of obtaining a piece or two. There are nobles who keep these for the sake of treasuring those time periods of war.

I then wrote a letter that detailed how the Shade Stronghold needed help from our Stronghold. The letter was written by one of the prince's of the Stronghold.

It spoke of how they would give 60% of all their resources for help. I then took on a form of a badly wounded person, then stumbled my way back to the Stronghold.

My acting was not bad. I was the number one actor here after all, even my parents were often fooled by my acting. And now, I shall Fool the entire nation.
