Darius Supreme

Darius rose up from his seat in the final room of the Restricted Section of The Great Library of Krona. After absorbing all the Magical, Professional, Cultural, Historical, and Technology related knowledge Faust, in general, had to offer, Darius could now be considered to have completely integrated with this world. 

The first thing that struck him was bitterness, as hindsight loved appearing when a person increased their knowledge/wisdom about a matter, mocking them for the mistakes they made in the past. 

This was especially the case for Darius, as he saw that without the Supreme System's help, especially in regards to his high Luck, he might never have really made it out of the Divine Glade. 

For one, he had immediately set out from the Divine Glade back then because to him, it was the wisest choice. After all, He had just been told to make a monkey out of himself for a Goddess or it was oblivion for him. 

The wiser course of action would have been to use the materials in the Divine Glade to make various foods and items that could enrich himself with knowledge before setting out. 

However, he was currently beating himself on the back not for rushing out, but for ever thinking the 'stay and wait' idea would have ever worked out. The Divine Glade he treated as his bastion of safety, where he hid his precious Resurrection Stone and his pool of Lunar Dew which was so rich a clan of fairies had set up there as their home, was actually not a secret location. 

All the True Lords and even the Gods know about that place. There was apparently one location on every continent that was like it, a place closed off from reality that would seem eerie and inaccessible. 

That it was. The History section detailed how the True Lords had learned about Agents of Vena. It was because Darius was not the first, far from it! 

From recorded history, there had been about 9 before him at the least! If what was in the History section was valid, then Darius was the 10th Reincarnator/Transmigrator to Faust! 

Out of the nine, three had tried to upset the order of the world with power that was greater than Grandmasters but just slightly below the Gods. These fellows had left inerasable legends in the history of Faust for those who were long-lived, The Gods, Demons, Immortals, and the True Lords. 

It was only the average layman that had long forgotten these things as short-lived species had short attention spans. 

The difference was in the fact that only True Lords knew about Vena. The Gods and co only thought that Agents of Vena were unique foreign souls introduced into the world by the laws of Faust to achieve a certain purpose. 

So far, one of these 'protagonists' has appeared on each continent once. The most recent one appeared in Ludo, going by the name of… Sino D'Mara. 

In other words, the last chosen one had been the very Stonekeeper Darius had been tasked to kill previously, Marasmus! This was a fact. 

Just as Darius had been given Transmutation as a special ability, Marasmus was supposed to be his ability to resurrect repeatedly. This was a semi-fact. 

Unfortunately, his transmigration was not done with a full-body, but as a fetus. This was a fact. 

He could not appear in the Ludo Divine Glade because he would not survive in that case, so he was spawned randomly on the continent and ended up in the hovel. This was speculation. 

He had been found by the Gods before he could mature and was shipped to gravitas to be experimented on. This was fact. 

… 

The Gods and Demons had ways to ascertain when a new foreign soul was born into Faust, and by eliminating places where they had been born before, they could narrow down where the next one would appear. 

This, unfortunately, was fact. 

This was why Darius was grateful he had moved from the moment he spawned. If he had waited and given them time to blockade the Divine Glade, he would have never made it out. 

He spent his first night outside the forest and almost got chewed by a bear, then the second one was in a rotting carriage just outside Poleria's Homestead. 

By the time he had daringly walked into greet Shanks and co when the morning of the third day had arrived, The Divine Glade was already welcoming visitors who could likely shake the entire continent with one hand. 

He then spent the next two months in Andrato, the first one mostly in the homestead and getting settled into Listo and the second obviously doing the first Quest to get the stone. 

After waiting for two months, the various parties ended their watch and went to check other zones in case they were wrong. They performed a sweep of the entire Faust, especially Fallon since it was the only outlier. 

However, they neglected the Plains of Death as this was a territory of a True Lord, and a True Lord who was hostile to them too. After this, they had called off the search, as it was pointless. 

They did not have any leads in searching for such a character, not what he would look like, what kind of power he would have or what he would do. For them who didn't even qualify to know about Vena, there was too little to go on. 

And this was why Darius felt that his first few days were only subsisted by his Luck and not anything else, because the events back then only dearly aligned to allow him a chance of survival. 

While he was sweating and cursing Caesar for making him have to take on an Adept foe while at the Amateur stage, a bigger danger was waiting for him had been anywhere else in the world. 

How did he get to know all this? More importantly, how was all this in the History Section of The Great Library in the first place? 

Well, it should be obvious enough. If the majority of the Gods participated in such an event, how would God Krona himself be left out?
