A Step into the Past - Volume 6 Chapter 1

In a realm where even the faintest shadows whisper untold tales, I came to realize that the forgotten often hold the most powerful narratives.As an avid admirer of the world's most beloved series, I never imagined that one night's rest would pull me into its very fabric.“Why on earth am I stuck in this world? And why, of all people, am I him?”I had become Arthur Nightingale—Class A’s most unremarkable student. A magic swordsman barely worthy of mention, ranked 8th among the first-years. A mere footnote in the grand story.Still, with this body’s abilities and my own insider knowledge, I figured I could carve out a peaceful life. Or so I believed.“This was the only way,” the voice repeated, resolute. “The only way to stop her.”Little did I know how truly unique Arthur Nightingale was—or the path this journey would force me to take...

The knight’s path no longer calls to him. Magic, mystery, and power beyond imagination await.Will Aaron remain a forgotten noble, or rise to become a legend in a world that never saw him coming?

“If she feels pain, then I'll make sure we all do...”As a purple and pink tailed meteor enters Earth's atmosphere, it begins “snowing” all over the planet.Humans are no longer on top of the ladder. A crystal ice dragon explodes from the space rock, creating Hell.Bringing along an ambush of bloodthirsty aliens, some large enough to demolish buildings, “Leviathan” has forced humanity into various locations of hiding around the world.Within three years after the initial invasion, humans have begun to not only fight back against the aliens, but some choose to become symbiotic hosts, acquiring “magical” abilities after slaying one of the unconventional extraterrestrials.Shortly before leaving their sanctuary/apocalypse training academy, two once drifted friends, Katsu and Saku, are reunited on the same scout team. As polar opposite personalities they are chosen by the only surviving “Creator of Humanity”.Both boys become 'blessed' to be hosts for their universe's contemporary forces and use those “God given abilities” to achieve their (secretly combative) goals.Accompanying them is Katsu's adopted sister, Shelly. Regarded as “The Beast of the Beasts” by her peers, she is the reincarnate of her grandmother. The greatest, most underrated female Scandinavian sword fighter to live before the 13th century.After learning of her destined lineage, and admiring the otherwise “mythical” accomplishments completed by her top tier, ass kicking Valkyrie grandma, Shelly is determined to retrieve all of the stolen blades from those who dishonorably stole them over 800 years ago.In order to do so she will have to defeat several members of a manipulative covenant of warrior witches. Each woman blessed with an undiscovered form of energy that has unknowingly coexisted with humanity.
