《A Hidden Secret(Cancelled)》V4 48: One Shall Fall, One Shall Rise
Advertisement
"One shall fall, one shall rise.." A deep, horse voice alerted just before the north of the city buildings of civilians erupt into a massive explosion wiping away ten thousand normal civilians in an instant. It all happened while Caden slept away in his cabin muted from the world while screams echoed throughout the world.
But his dream never lasted long when his animal instincts kicked him awake, his eyes adjusted to the boring wall he slept next to and rolled over onto his back afterwards feeling something was off. Caden stood up from his bed and creaked across the hallway into the living room where he grabbed the remote to turn on the television.
The sudden velocity of the sound escaping from the television boomed extremely loudly inside the small cabin surrounded by the night's whispering touch, resulting in Caden immediately turning down the television as he changes from a series to the news to see if they were on.
To his human curiosity, the live news was on displaying images and videos of the recent bombarded attacks in the North of Old Smoke, Caden stood calmly frozen as he eyed the images where burnt bodies were found if anyone looked closely enough to the destruction nobody thought would happen even though their city was already destroyed with Governmental Buildings being attacked.
"We were...sleeping when, suddenly, three houses just exploded out of nowhere!" A middle-aged male explained covered in deadly ashes formulated by the flame's boiling breath, the man acted in a way it seemed his humanity was forcibly taken away from him.
The outburst of wind rumbled the peace in the cabin as Caden whooshes out of thin air just before Annabelle walked out of her room located next to the television with a concealed look on her face. Annabelle wanders in front of the television noticing it was on and was playing the news in the middle of the cold night.

"North Old Smoke bombing?" Annabelle mumbled to herself as she shifted her eyes to the past neatly placed papers relaxing on each other were now scattered everywhere like the contagious flu, making Annabelle instantly realise something as her vision fades to red.
Walking through the doomed territory of a recent attack, Caden looked at everything from crisped walls slamming itself up against strong standing buildings that weren't affected to the burnt skeleton structures that were hit with spreading ink for their last moments of life as Caden continued to stare at a body reaching their desperate attempt of a survival arm out into the world of escaping crowds stopped in historic times.
"You're not rewinding time." Asvini's robotic voice echoed inside Caden's head.
"Why shouldn't I?" Caden responded with an angered question.
"Because if you continue to rewind time for your benefits you will continue to alter the world humans need to live in," Asvini warned, appearing out of the air in their genderless body reflecting Caden's identity structured by White Lightning.
"Why should I care?" Caden asked with a spiteful, uncaring tone.
"Dismissing the laws of time and power will ruin the multiverse to which you singlehandedly done with a quarter of the damage. Your Earth-1 counterpart, who had no powers before, is now roaming around with Telekinesis...a distant second power of your original." Asvini informed, holding their hands together as they slightly float off the ground with white lightning sparking off their body onto electrical wires that remained after the explosion creating altered imagery of connected stormy waves of the ocean.
"It's always my fault, isn't it?" Caden asked with a raging snare.
"No, I had time to read your situation and I've concluded that these certain selected amount of humans are in the wrong." Asvini reasoned, changing Caden's decision as time went on.

While Caden was talking to Asvini alone, Annabelle was spotted creeping behind a blown building wall as she watches Caden peacefully speak to this blinding circle of bright light. Her eyes were drawn to that light for some reason and she couldn't find out why she was until Iniobong suddenly appeared expressing terror across their shadowy unidentified figure with small bony wings sticking out of their shoulder pads.
"Asvini, The Great Battle Soldier of Speed...-What are they doing here...?" Iniobong's frightened voice questioned the blinding light as they stumble onto the dusty grounds hitting the bricks that flew off the corrupted building.
"Asvini...? Who is that?" Annabelle asked confused, receiving an unreadable face but their voice explained the proper emotions they went through as their empty eye sockets stared at Annabelle.
"A Soldier employed by the Speed of God himself...Our Timeinfi nation went at war with Speedinfi with Timeinfi winning them wars until Asvini showed up...They were the fastest of them all, faster enough to outmatch a Timeinfi soldier from lowest to the highest..." Iniobong spoke in a deranged way, losing their sanity as they fumbled around the painted roads, finding a way to escape the terror. Annabelle watched the unrecognised figure stumble around with her confusion changing to fear as she once again glanced at the blinding circle light Caden stood in front of.
"Please, my Lord...save me from the sinner who ruled our nation with violence for thousands of years. Shun that creature who mercilessly beheaded our fallen ones, they now have walked the earth and will destroy it in an instant along with that robot boy it found destroying the sun before recreating it just with 95% of their combined power...!" Iniobong rambled with influent dialect as they crawled away with terror.
Annabelle rushes over to the frightening figure to place her hands onto Iniobong's shoulders trying to calm them down with no hint of help as Iniobong continued to scream for their Lords help.
"What the hell is wrong with you?" Annabelle worriedly asked before Iniobong force their shockwaves of hands onto Annabelle to force her to stare into their eyes.
"Run while you have the chance...! That supernatural creature with unlimited power will rain terror on all the Nations of Powers as they manipulate tbe strong ones inside that boy who is on the same level with his independent Super Speed power. Both of them combined will destroy all the Gods and Goddesses along with their troops like they once did before...! If they're merciless enough to destroy one galaxy!" Iniobong warned with their spitting hitting Annabelle's terrified look.
"They won't stop to think about destroying the Galaxy you live in!"

Long Shadow
No destiny, no choice, no hope. Our protagonist, a coward summoned to a world meant for heroes; a new world with new rules and old cruelties. Join him on his adventures as he must deal with menus, monsters, and mysteries in this litrpg fantasy. Thomas Goodwill was an average boy with an average life, all that changed when he woke up in a new reality. Now, out of his depth, damn near out of his mind, he must learn to survive in a game-like reality with no reloads, checkpoints, or save scumming. He does, however, have a drunk snake. Thank you for reading my first story, hopefully, the first of many to come. This will be my main story and is meant to help me practice and hone my skills as I slowly produce more complex ideas. It's a litrpg in which I want to only lightly focus on the mechanics as I don’t want to pad out the word count with math and number tables and while I want to add a few of my own twists here and there, overall I’m going to keep this story close to generic as possible so that I don't let my inexperience lead me into a corner. Thanks again to all willing to leave a review or some constructive criticism, without you I'd never improve. Unfortunately, Cover art is by me.
