HEYS GUYSSSSS,

Anyway this is the beginning of the story, my aim in thi fic is to create a true to earth stoic, pwerful unforgiving mc, i think this sort of backstory thing hasnt been done before, so i hope you guys like it. I dont like to make fics where the author has one goal and all he does is to get there, but he has a main goal that he is working hard towards, becoming immensely powerful, but there needs to be a series of small goals he has to achieve to get there....
I hope you guys like the new chapter.....

Gotrek’s POV:
My love had returned the woman who I loved more than life itself, had returned. The first time I saw her I was mesmerized, my heart felt like it was going a 1000 beats per second, my pulse accelerated and my body felt weak, I was an Emperor level combatant at that stage, and had been identified as the absolute genius of the entire continent. But when I saw her I felt similar to a 15-year-old boy, who was nervous about doing it for the first time. It felt as though the entire universe was commanding me to take her as wife, take her and take care of her. I was in love.
I moved her to my home, in the castle located at the capital of Kislev. We were happy, everyday felt like a fairy tale, I was able to be with her whenever I want, I had not intended for her to be part of any noble gossip, but the people soon started calling her my mistress. I was furious determined to find the house who spread the rumors and obliterate them. But Ariana was not like that, she would always say ‘let people think what they want. I love and I cherish you that is the only thing you need to know’
She deserved more, she was magically inept but I was sure our offspring would be a great boy, so we had started to try to conceive a child. I knew that my wife would not approve, thinking that the boy would threaten her eldest child’s chance of inheritance. My eldest boy Gunther was a 3 years old but I could tell he has similar potential to me, he was brim with power but the boy already showed signs of inheriting his mother’s arrogance and her ego. He was my son, and I still loved him with all my heart.
Then disaster struck, my Ariana was beaten kicked and severely crushed by assassins. I knew straight away that my wife was involved. I was certain that her pride would not allow her to let a commoner like Ariana live in the same vicinity as her; but I had hoped that her ego would melt when she saw how wonderful Ariana was. I was naïve, I was unwise and simple. She had gone too far though. I went to her room that night and threatened to send her to a foreign land as an ambassador, away from her sons, but she was not the slightest bit scared.
She knew my Achilles heel and she knew that she could kill Ariana any time she wanted, and she could get away with it, she after all herself was a knight level combatant, who I studied in school with, and was also from one of the strongest clans of Kislev. She could send out an assassin to Ariana’s chambers and have her assassinated from the best in the entire country. Her House was far too influential, they were the House of Cletus, and she was the daughter of my first general Imperius Cletus, one of the two Monarch level combatants. Many in the kingdom were convinced that the Beherit House was just for appearances and that the House of Cletus were the ones controlling the country. They were not wrong, due to my House’s long lineage of rulers leaving to train, the House of Cletus had generations to slowly weave a web of networks and secretly control situations to their liking.

Imperius himself could come and murder Ariana and he would get away with it. Even if I kill him, the country would banish me for killing someone of such prowess for a commoner girl. The Beherit House would be brought down from the royal lineage and would be shunned for centuries, I could not let that happen…
The palace was not a safe place for my Ariana, but she continued, made friends with the workers, listened to their troubles and coaxed their woes. She never once complained that her life could be taken, in a second, she was scared I could tell but she never once voiced her concerns. I knew that she was being shunned by the court’s ladies and that she was being suppressed by Melisandre, but I could do nothing. I couldn't risk incurring the wrath of Imperius, who doted on his daughter. I could not do anything and it was eating me away. I knew my wife was troubled by the fact that we could not conceive a child, which further fueled Melisandre’s wrath on her, her maltreatment magnified, whenever I went on long trips away from the castle I would return to find her in a state of dishevel, her eyes would be black, her hair would be tousled, I found once scratch marks on her hands, and bites on her back. From then on I never let her out of my sight refusing any trips and continued to stay close to her.
Then suddenly she left for 9 months, claiming her father needed her. I was saddened I was sure that she could no longer handle such a harsh lifestyle and needed to leave. I was grief stricken; it was similar to that of a part of my heart was ripped out. But I endured, I knew she was doing the right thing leaving, but I couldn't help but beg her not to leave but, she was determined and left.
When she came back claiming she had a child, I knew she had done the right thing. Melisandre would have murdered her even if she had the small chance of giving birth. Our love bloomed again, I was ecstatic and I was determined to not let her stay be painful this time. For 2 months we were happy until disaster struck…
Melisandre POV:
That Wench. She had brought back a boy my husband’s son, I was sure she was lying, she couldn't conceive I had made sure of that, the first assassination attack I had specifically told him to kick the lower abdomen of her body, to ensure that she couldn't conceive. I had done the same to any girl who tried to get near Gotrek at the academy, and it worked like a charm…
I had made sure she couldn't conceive but I see she had used deceitful ways to trick my love into believing her story.
All the work I had put into this man was melting away at the notion that this street whore had returned. I quickly tried to open him to the truth that this woman was using dark magic to birth the child, but my love wouldn't listen, he kept insisting that he had love for this base-born. I knew he was confused, he would always be confused, that's why I had to be there for him and help him through this confusion. But today even I was angry; he had used his magic on me! And pushed me out of the room. How dare he do that to his wife? I was infuriated.

He then went on to spend time with that woman for 2 whole months, he continued to care for her, shower her with love, and spend time continuously with that demon child. I need to save him; he just doesn't know that that witch is tricking him.
My sons, my two beautiful sons, Gunther, Polos didn't need to be raised alongside that street whore’s son. All of us don't need to live with that woman, who is using dark magic to cloud my husband’s judgment. She is using it to make him think that she was beautiful, and tricking my poor husband. This has been going on for far too long I need to put an end to this. I knew who to ask! I could just ask daddy Imperius and he will take care of it for me. I know daddy loves me…
I went to my daddy’s personal manor, and went to meet him,
“Melisandre, my beautiful daughter, what brings you to your old mans place,” Imperius asked, coming to hug his daughter with his arms spread out. Imperius was a towering man, bigger than Gotrek, and was almost 8 foot tall, when he hugged his daughter she would only come to the middle of his chest. He had dark hair just like his daughter coupled with the Cletus family’s trademark blue eyes.
“Daddy, this time Gotrek went too far, he..he ued magic on me,” she said putting on the show. Making a dramatic scene of her falling to her knees sobbing.
“What! I thought he was the man you loved, you said he would look after you, he is no doubt a man greater than your father, but I would die killing him if that's what you want darling,” Imperius commanded.
“NO! daddy, he was being tricked by a malicious evil witch, she is using dark magic to make her more beautiful than me and manipulating him, please kill her for me,” Melisandre asked, using a cute tone to entice her father.
“Child don't kill everyone because of your hate for them, no we can just do a little something to her, make sure she can never set foot in the castle,” Imperius grinned.
“But make sure she feels the pain father, she has been making my life hell,” Melisandre urged again.
“Whatever you want child, anything for you,” Imperius replied looking lovingly at his daughter.
Ariana’s POV:
I had just visited my son that morning, he was growing beautifully, already crawling continuously looking at books, I was sure he would be very smart when he grows up, and that made me feel extremely happy. He had thick head of dark brown hair, similar to mine, but had glowing emerald green eyes, compared to my pale green ones and I swear his eyes would shine sometimes. I retreated to my room, going to the lavish bedroom my husband had provided for me.
I thought of my husband my poor husband, I knew that my presence induced great pressure on him, and the fact that he couldn't protect me was eating him away. I never complained however hard it got. I was happy that we were together, and that were raising a beautiful boy together. I lied on my bed, and slowly drifted to sleep.
Suddenly my face was gripped by a fierce power, the big hand was covering my whole face only allowing for one of my eyes to see a huge man with his face in the shadows.
I struggled against his grip; he made a low chuckle and suddenly thick yellowy brown smoke drifted from the hand, which had my head in it. There was a slow release of thick pungent smoke, I felt the smoke touch my face, and my face distorted beyond anything I could imagine. My skin was peeling away thick blood oozed from the crevices, and the exposed muscle was filled with the smoke, which continuously gave birth to huge blisters filled with pus, which was continually oozing.
Searing pain, unbearable pain I screamed but my lips were slowly withering away, and my tongue was dissolving in my mouth. I could feel some of my teeth slowly eroding and my brain filled with agony. My whole head’s skin my forehead, my cheeks, my nose and even my scalp, was slowly peeling away with a slight touch of the poison. The inwardly growing blisters were readily popping filling my exposed muscle with pus and further inducing more blisters. The pain was unbearable it was eating me away, I knew I was going to die, I readied my self for death I thought about my husband, my son, and knew that I didn't want to die…
Someone save me…
Suddenly the pain stopped the man stopped hurting me and started healing me instead I didn't understand, but before healing me completely he left as quickly as he came. I tried to scream but realized my tongue was dissolved, I couldn't make a sound, I tried to feel my face and realized that it was riddled with blisters, huge pus filled ones. My teeth were almost dissolved and my hair was peeling away. I could no longer feel my tongue, which was severely eroded. I couldn’t think, I was still in immense pain, slipping in and out of consciousness. I knew my face was no longer the same, I wanted my husband to save me but no one came. My heart hurt. My face was poisoned, and it was eating me away.
Someone please save me…
Deimos’ POV:
I was greeted by the queen’s guards, the queen was staring at me, her face filled with sinister ecstasy, she seemed to have done something. My heart suddenly ached, had she done something to my mother?
“Guards, the witches’ true face has come to light, seize the demon child!!” the queen yelled.

Psychotic Death Online
(Side Project for now)In a futuristic alternate reality, the creators of nanotech team up with the VR capsule company to create a capsule where one could stay it in for a year at a time before having to leave. These capsules could be use for rehab and even reconstruction! Eventually, Buzzard, the largest gaming company in the world, created a new VRMMO with 99% realism pending the new capsules, of course the rate dropped to 97% with normal capsules and 90% with the old fashioned visor systems. Unfortunately, the new capsules cost $100,000 and not many people can afford them, either way the new game World of Destiny was a hit with over 110 million subscriptions!Meet our tragic MC Feng Jun, an injured psychopath that simply wants to get his next kill. He has no MO, he doesn't even care if what he kills is an insect let alone a person. He just has to kill every once in awhile to scratch his itch. Up til an injury that left him without a leg, he was able to make do simply killing insects as no one cared and he didn't even have to visit any doctors about it. People just thought he hated bugs! But after his injury he has been suck at his home not being able to do anything! Fortunately he is rich and spends most of his time playing MMOs since normal VRMMOs don't work well with his injury as the realism setting always keeps him with only one leg! But what will he do with a new opportunity to rebuild his leg with nanotech? Knowing he has to spend a year in the game minimum for something like this, he sets a goal to insure he doesn't go crazy (er) without having stuff to kill.This is a VRMMO story where the game is closer to zhan long than royal road with a few twists here and there. The world outside of the game is sci fi and has very little impact at least for the first year due to obvious reasons. No gore or explicit sex in this story, if cursing requires a mature tag I will add it later, this story is at best PG-13. Tragedy is for his circumstances and previous life, the game itself isn't tragic at all as it's just a game more or less.(This story will be put out alongside my main story whenever I feel like it for now, no set schedule at this time)
