Arthur found himself in a strange, mysterious realm filled with darkness.
At first there was silence and stillness, then Arthur felt a tug on his consciousness as though he was being pulled toward a particular location. The sensation came slowly at first, then grew stronger, like something far away was insisting he follow.
The location felt distant, and it was as if it had taken him an eternity to traverse the distance, but he finally arrived.
Arthur's mind cleared, and he realized that at the place where he appeared stood a middle aged man.
The middle aged man seemed to possess a terrifying aura that caused the space around him to bend to his presence. Arthur felt a faint pressure on his mind just from looking at him, like the world itself was wary of this figure.
Just as Arthur thought this was his summoner, he noticed something creeping behind the man.
The next moment, to his shock, a shadow rose up from behind the man and his throat split in two.
Arthur was dumbfounded by the sight, and there was a brief static pause before his perception shifted and he appeared in a location filled with youths of similar age. The change was so sudden that his thoughts lagged behind reality.
All of them looked young, however Arthur understood that they could squash him, including his calamities, like squashing a bug.
Were these the geniuses of the ancient era? Arthur was puzzled as he watched on, still trying to process the previous death he witnessed.
The whole scene was thrown into chaos the next moment.
From the shadow of one of the youths, something crept up and in the next moment the neck of the genius split in two.
The shadow returned to normal, and as the youths were thrown into chaos, releasing all sorts of attacks that could destroy earth, Arthur noticed their shadows changing at intervals.
Every time a person's shadow changed, their throat split open. The deaths were so abrupt and silent that Arthur felt his skin crawl.
The horrifying scene played out for a while before the place fell silent.
All the geniuses were dead.
The shadows twisted and finally formed into a slender, perfectly figured lady.
Her expression was sultry, and with her tight fitting silk like clothes, she looked like the perfect assassin.
A slightly transparent black veil covered half her face from the top of her head, leaving only her rosy red lips visible.
She licked her red lips like she was tasting blood, then a relieved expression appeared on her face as she let out a sigh.
She raised her calm eyes beneath the veil to glance up at the skies.
The whole heavens had caved in like a calamity was befalling the world.
The lady's expression remained unchanged. It seemed she had already expected her fate.
After all, she had slaughtered all the geniuses all over the world, including those blessed by heaven.
There was no way heaven would let her live after what she had done.
Suddenly, Arthur's pulse quickened and a wave of dread settled in his heart. Something about the air itself felt wrong, as if disaster was aiming straight at him.
His heartbeat increased steadily before beating erratically.
From the skies, a massive hand larger than anything Arthur had ever seen plunged down like a divine hand of judgment.
The massive hand radiated a devastating pressure that caused everything it passed to collapse and become a black void. Arthur felt as if his soul would crack just from watching.
Just from the sheer oppressive might of the hand, the whole planet was being destroyed.
Slowly, the massive hand clenched its index and thumb together.
The flawless beauty seemed frozen, a dazed expression appearing on her face even as the fingers inched closer and closer.
Finally, the hand pinched down completely, and the moment the devastating hand touched her, she turned to dust.
Arthur was in disbelief. The lady was dead just like that? Even a monster like her could not resist. It made his spine tingle.
The hand started retreating, then suddenly paused and twitched as though sensing something.
A line of bloody red words interrupted Arthur's vision, pulling him out of the timeless realm of eternity.
[A calamity has answered the call.]
The message appeared abruptly, and before Arthur could react, his existence disappeared from the location of the massive hand.
Meanwhile, still in the timeless realm of eternity, the massive hand remained paused as though waiting for something.
The skies collapsed once more and opened, then an eyeball the size of a planet poked out from the void.
The eyeball scanned the surroundings curiously as though it had sensed something before.
Or someone.
The eyeball continued to scan the place, ultimately detecting nothing wrong.
Finally, it closed and retreated, followed by the gigantic palm.
Arthur was unaware of the scene that had just played out in the mysterious world.
That he had almost been discovered.
…
Arthur opened his eyes in a daze and tried to get used to the darkness clouding his vision.
His eyesight finally cleared and he noticed someone new in his room.
It was the lady he had just seen, and there was no difference in her appearance. His breath hitched slightly. She looked far too real.
The black veil still hung loosely on her face, obscuring her flawless beauty, but Arthur could tell from her exposed proportions and rosy red lips that she was an undeniable beauty.
He gulped lightly as he took in her perfect figure.
She could practically be considered the most perfect lady he had encountered.
Her curves were perfectly outlined by her tight fitting dress.
The silence stretched between them before a calm, peaceful voice entered Arthur's mind.
"Greetings, master."
After she finished speaking, she got on one knee and bowed respectfully toward Arthur.
The gesture revealed some of her cleavage, causing Arthur's blood to rush through his body explosively.
Suppressing his teenage hormones, he glanced down at her.
"Welcome to the family, Nephis."
The flawless beauty's face broke into a smile that spread across her lips.
"Thank you, master."
Arthur laughed lightly, rubbing his bald head awkwardly. The whole situation still felt unreal.
"You don't have to be so respectful. I'll introduce you to the others."
As soon as he finished speaking, Arthur pointed at the towering dragon knight.
"He's Titan and he's your big brother. Go to him if you need anything… although he doesn't talk."
Hearing this, a glint appeared in Nephis' eyes.
"Hi, big brother," she chirped lightly.
Titan's golden eyes flickered with some sort of emotion.
There was recognition in his movements as he nodded toward her.
Then Arthur lightly rubbed the sleeping fox on his shoulder.
"This is your second sibling. You can call her Little Fox for now…"
"Oh…" Nephis raised a brow curiously, then fell silent, not knowing how to address the little fox since it was sleeping.
"As for me, I'm Arthur Pendragon."
"Arthur Pendragon…" Nephis whispered the name, and Arthur could not help wanting to ask her to say it again.
It sounded filled with all sorts of emotions.
Finally, I have a calamity that can speak. Arthur was excited at the thought.
He was already starting to worry about the fact that he could not have a normal discussion with any of his calamities.
Fortunately, that worry was dispelled by Nephis.
System pull up her stats, Arthur commanded.
The next moment a series of words materialized in his line of sight.
[Calamity Summoned: Assassin Empress]
[Name: Nephis]
[True Name: God Killer, Bane of Geniuses, Goddess of Death, ???, ???]
[Level: 10]
[Strength: 31]

[Remark: After being disdained for being too weak, she founded her own assassin organization and after countless experiments and sacrifices, mutated her genes in a way that even gods never thought possible. She went on a killing spree and slaughtered all the geniuses of her generation, becoming the sole bane of geniuses in her era. Angered, she was mercilessly erased by the gods. She is a beautiful lady who has never experienced love or the good side of life. Please don't break her heart.]
Arthur stared at the stats for a few seconds longer than he intended. Seeing everything laid out like this made his chest tighten in a mix of awe and tension. He had summoned someone terrifying, someone tragic, and someone who now depended on him.
And for the first time, he felt the weight of it settle on his shoulders.
