Kaiser of the New World

My dear (94)

Kai's whole body trembled as he thought about one single possibility, one thing that could singlehandedly change the tides of the war.

But there was one underlying problem.

Why the hell was everything lining up so perfectly?

Kai had way too many encounters that just seemed to work out way too perfectly. Being paired with Noelle was way too perfect as he would one hundred percent be dead without her help.

Every skill he picked had inadvertently saved his life, some on more than one occasion.

While that could be called a coincidence, it happened way too many times to just be scratched off as a mere coincidence.

Then there was also meeting Sofia with the help of Failure, that meeting also impacted him much more than he could have possibly imagined when he first met the red haired woman. She saved his life, gave him advice to do with various different things and was the main reason why Kai decided to apologise to Noelle in the first place.

Then, there was the whole diary thing. While it was The Ever-changing, his master, who told him where the diary was, why was it even there in the first place?

What God had given the long dead princess to store her memories in a bead and hide it in a tree, hoping someone would find it?

Like, what would have happened if Kai didn't find it? The diary, Ethania's Will and the Miracle Bead all would have eventually been corroded, erased from existence.

But it wasn't, Kai found it and now that diary was going to be the catalyst for the possible victory of the moon beasts, all because one innocent red haired boy happened to stumble upon it with the help of his now MIA master.

So why, why did it all line up so perfectly? It was way too perfect for it to be normal, but what was normal anymore? What Kai considered normal could be considered strange on wherever he was going to end up if he survived the tutorial, so did he have any right to complain about it?

It could all be chalked down to Kai being extremely lucky, but how lucky would be have to be for it all to end up like this?

Still, as long as it worked out in his favour, Kai would allow all the strange happenings to keep occurring, as long as nothing too strange happened that is.

"Failure..." Kai swallowed hesitantly. He had no idea how rare a Miracle Bead was, so he at least wanted to ask first.

"How rare is a Miracle Bead?"

Failure frowned slightly, confused by Kai's seemingly random question.

"A Miracle Bead?" Failure paused. "Why, they could be considered fairly rare in the vast scope of things, but majority of the stronger empires, kingdoms, cults, etcetera have quite a few in stock. I'm surprised you've even heard of a Miracle Bead, where did you hear it from?"

Kai grinned nervously as he summoned another item that had been residing in the depths of his soul, also unused since he first laid eyes on it.

A beautiful golden bead appeared in Kai's palm, the small sphere radiating an auriferous aura. Kai couldn't help but swallow as he gazed down at the small orb, he also couldn't help but read its description one more time.

Miracle Bead (Legendary)

Allows a miracle to occur when eaten. There will be a 1000 year cooldown for the consumer before they can consume another Miracle Bead.

"I didn't hear about it from anyone" Kai chuckled hesitantly. "I found one myself."

Failure's eyes widened in shock as he looked down at the golden bead, a look of realisation forming on his now attractive and less weary face, a welcome sight.
