Arc Of Embodiment (Hiatus) - Chapter 95

Darkness. That’s all that Louise Graham could see. For so long, he was craving the light. In this darkness, there was no knowing how much time had passed. Louise tried to count the amount of time he had spent in the darkness, but after two million seconds or twenty-three days, he lost count. Now, he was wandering in the darkness, waiting for something to happen, and his wish was granted.

“Louise Graham,” The voice spoke. “Yes, but who’s there?” Louise asked in fear.

“I am known as the One True God. I have come here to offer you a second chance in life and help you fulfil your greatest wish,” OTG said. “My greatest wish? But my greatest wish is to be reborn in the world of Remnant as Jaune Arc. Is that even possible?” Louise said.

“It is, but it isn’t something that I offer just to anyone. Only the one that has achieved the impossible would be given such a chance. And you, Louise Graham, are the first to achieve such an achievement,” OTG said. Louise was confused. He didn’t remember ever doing anything impossible.

“Uhm? Are you sure that you got the right guy? I don’t remember doing anything of such significance,” Louise said. “I am sure, for I know all and see all,” OTG replied.

OTG then explained to Louise the thing that he has done in life. Louise Graham, an avid fan of Anime, Manga, Manhwa, Manhua, Light novels, Visual Novels, etc.… created a ripple on Earth that changed the world for the better. All the people he helped, whether in orphanages or the people he gave jobs to in his company, returned such kindness to other people. This, in turn, created a wave in the world.

“Now, enough with the explanation. You have two wishes. Make them count. I suggest you pick something that would help you in any situation that you may encounter, and there is no limit to the power of the wish,” OTG said. “No limit? What if I asked for something outrageous? Like, for example, unlimited amount of Magical Energy?” Louise asked.

“That’s not something outrageous. I can do you better. I accept this as your first wish. Infinite Magical Energy that could change depending on the energy you require. Be it Chakra, Mana, Heaven and Earth energy, you name it, it shall be. I call it Infinite Formless Magic!” OTG said.

“That’s insane?! Are you sure that’s okay?” Louise asked. “That’s nothing for me. You don’t have to worry,” OTG replied.

“Okay. Before I make my second wish, do I get to keep my memory?” Louise asked. “Of course! It is stupid to give such power to someone whose memory of their previous life is gone. If that’s the case, would you still be Louise Graham? No, because you are essentially a new person. Therefore, undeserving of the power,” OTG said in a matter-of-fact tone.

“I see. Hmm? Since you gave me such an insane wish from earlier, I need a power that can match it, like…The Arc of Embodiment from Fairy Tail,” Louise said. “Not a bad choice. But why not pick something like the Denial of Nothingness?” OTG asked.

“Why would I pick that? I don’t even know what that power is supposed to be. I have read, watched, and played the Nasuverse series, but it was never given a proper explanation. Why would I pick a power that I don’t have a clear understanding of?” Louise said. OTG nodded at Louise. “Then I shall give you the power of Arc of Embodiment, as you wish,” OTG said.

With all that done, Louise was sent to the world of Remnant as Jaune Arc.

Within the world of Remnant, one Jaune Arc was born. The moment he opened his eyes, he could see with clarity even though babies usually cannot see clearly when they first open their eyes.

Looking around, our hero, Jaune Arc, noticed his mother, Amarilla and his father, Giallo. Amarilla was a beautiful woman with strawberry blonde hair, green eyes and a nice figure even though she had given birth to multiple children. As for Giallo, huge, that’s the word that you would think of when you first meet him. It’s not just because he was tall and towering over seven feet, but because he was built like a tank. He was blonde and had blue eyes.

“So? Have you thought of a name for our son?” Giallo asked his wife. “Yes, with the way his hair is so blonde, I’ll call him Jaune,” Amarilla replied.

“Jaune…Jaune Arc! I love it!” Giallo shouted. “Honey…Please do be quiet. We are still in the hospital, and other people are resting,” Amarilla reprimanded her husband. Giallo apologised to his wife.

Moments later, the doctor took Jaune to be cleaned. Being a baby and moving a lot to look at his surroundings, Jaune became exhausted. Not even a minute later, he has fallen asleep.

(Ten Years Later)

For the past few years, Jaune has been training the usage of AoE, it wasn’t difficult to use, but there are times that he uses it without meaning to, hence the reason he is training to make sure that he only uses it to create what he wants to create. And finally, he was able to use it without issues.

For the past few years, Jaune couldn’t train his body as he was young. He thought of using AoE to create a pill that would help, but he didn’t know if it could cause some side effects since he didn’t have complete control over AoE back then.

Today, on Jaune’s tenth birthday, he was ready to train. He would bug his father Giallo to train him to be a Huntsman, but he would be denied, especially when mentioning the Arc Legacy.

Jaune would pester his father repeatedly in the next coming month to be trained as a Huntsman, but he would always be rejected. Eventually, Jaune couldn’t take it anymore and decided to train on his own. On the back of his family’s house, Jaune built a warehouse that he would use to train in the next five years. This warehouse was enchanted so that only he would be able to notice it.

Due to the changes in Jaune’s body thanks to his training, his family started getting suspicious of the activities he does when he’s out of the house. To counter this, Jaune applied for an apprenticeship in a nearby blacksmith. This is because blacksmith needs a strong body as they are hammering metals all day long. It worked; his family finally stopped probing him on why his body was showing signs of training.

Jaune was in a conundrum. With the power of AoE, he has made a pill that would unlock the power of Aura. He tested the pill on an injured wolf as he wanted to help it by unlocking its Aura. It was a huge success. And that’s where the problem comes in. Jaune tried to use the pill on himself…and it failed. He tried making multiple different pills that would help unlock one’s Aura, but his, doesn’t seem to want to unlock. At least that’s what he believes. It wasn’t until a few weeks of testing that he figured out why his Aura wouldn’t unlock. That’s because it was already unlocked, in a sense.

OTG gave Jaune the Infinite Formless Magic Energy that would transform into any energy that he required. That means that whatever energy Aura was, he already had access to it long ago. He just didn’t know how to use it.. But now that he figured that out, he would start training in the usage of Aura.
