Chapter 3 - Chapter 3: Making it on my own

As I re-join the conversation, it seems that everyone is heading off to I don't know where. "Hey, where is everyone going?" I say evenly as Rouge turns to me with his signature smirk and says "Well we decided to go our separate ways, we have a lot of work to do on turning this place into ours, that includes from our inherent knowledge, the daemons who will be created from us, we need to organise our houses." I nod in understanding, it is better this way, I would much rather be on my own. 

As I turn to leave Rouge says "By the way, I can see you are not a team player, me neither, however, I am the first born and the leader, even if the others have not verbally agreed to it, they know."

I turn my head slightly as I continue to move away "I really do not like wasting energy on speaking, especially to people like you, get to the point." I say with a monotone voice.

"The point... is that you will obey me, otherwise I do not mind showing you your place, Grey, a perfect colour for you by the way, you seem to match it perfectly."

I then start walking off leaving just these words behind "The others might be apprehensive right now about directly speaking their mind, but I, I am not, Red. Do not think you can corner me into submission, I do not recognise you as my overlord." As I say this I wave lazily and disappear into the distance. 

-----------------

Rouge left standing there on his own grits his teeth leaking some of his aura, before it dissipates and he smiles again, "We will see, I do not think someone of your nature will last long in this place with a mentality like that." He says with that same overly confident tone, before walking off. 

---------------

It has been I think about a decade since my rebirth, time is a little difficult to measure here, with no real day and night cycle, I spent most of this time just exploring and seeking adventure, the thing is there is barely anyone here yet, barely any daemons have been born and therefore no real civilisation, same with the central world, there is no real civilisations like in the novel, so no summons. However, this did not thwart my enthusiasm for I have been training my magic, well more like mastering my unique skills mainly Anti-Magic. Primordial Daemons like me, get naturally stronger with age. 

Even though there are no civilisations to explore, just Hell itself was and still is enough for me. For now... It has been fun, yeah fun, to just go off in a direction and see the realm for myself, the lava oceans, the misty swamps, the huge jagged mountains, it has been an experience. It is so large that I have not ran into another Primordial since I was first birthed. 

This place for a human or even a lesser daemon might actually feel like Hell, however, for one born on top of the food chain, this feels like... home. It is way more comfortable than Earth ever was, I feel good here, content. Which has been a weird feeling for me to get used to. Maybe after a few centuries I will actually be more open to building some relations, if I am to face Rouge, I will need them most likely, from what I know of him from the novels and my first impression of the current him, it seems he will not let me go that easy. Look at what he did to Blue and Green in the novels, I will not let him do that to me. 

There is also the thought that he and the others because of me, because I am an anomaly here in this world, might change, personalities being just one of the way in which they do, I could cause a butterfly effect. Well, not that I care. 

In terms of training Anti-Magic, it was more practical lessons, trying to essentially 'shadowbox' as I have no one to spar with right now, to see what the best way to use this skill is, considering it is a unique skill, and from what I understand it is my identifiable power as a Primordial, kind of like Jaunes Nuclear Magic. I realise this skill might be broken, considering most powerhouses in this world use some sort of magic, if I am able to keep up with them physically then I am essentially unbeatable, unless my magicules run out in a prolonged fight, which seems unlikely - just the nature of my race means that I have an unfathomable magicule capacity.

And from what I know of Magic Bodies - when I eventually make my way to the central world and create one, I will be essentially completely resistant to physical attacks. 

 Apart from this, I was able to learn better control over my magicules and experimented with some ideas I had.

Which allowed me to gain some Extra and Common skills such as: Flight and anti-magic shield - which allows me to defend against essentially all magic attacks except purely elemental ones.

Along with some other such as, Agility - greatly improves my speed.

Strengthen - greatly enhances my strength 

Deceleration - reduces the momentum of an object or person

The biggest gains so far have to be two skills linked to my unique skill anti-magic, those being: anti-magic lance - shoots a lance that nullifies any magic it comes into contact with and can also injure enemies, works similar to a fire lance in that regard. And the one I have spent the most time trying to learn, inspired by one of my favourite characters on earth, Gilgamesh and his Gate of Babylon. It is called anti-magic armada, yes, I guess the name isn't as cool, however, it essentially does the same, depending on my magicule count, which is massive, I can summon or 'manifest' with anti-magic potentially thousands of different weapons I can think of in the air and with the wave of my hand manipulate them to be shot like a projectile or even use them as a shield to block attacks etc.

I will probably try to improve upon it as time goes on, if there is anything I have right now, it is time, not just because of my race and what that implies, but because there is nothing going on!
