Hey guys and girls.

Welcome back to the new chapter of The Reaper Of Knightmares.

So the last place we left off was where Cornelia had been getting strange vivid dreams. These dreams show a strange man that would kill everything that moved. His laugh was hysterical psychopathic and he would always turn to her.

The one thing she didn't understand was that he kept calling her, his wife. As if. She didn't bother doing such things. She was too occupied with fighting against a group of terrorists and whatnot.

But after traveling along with a few scientists to an area where strange energy was being released and causing their gear to malfunction a lot, they find a hidden doorway that leads down into the mountain.

What they found was a tomb of some kind. Statues lined the sides along with a stone carving of a man who was being praised while others ran away from him.

After cutting her finger on the urn, she finds the very man that had been haunting her dreams. As well as learning that he is not just any person. But also a deity. The Grim Reaper. The one who takes the souls of the departed.

And he was once human?

Enjoy.

Disclaimers: I own nothing.

Chapter 2: Death Incarnate.

It had been only a day since Cornelia was aquainted with the man she found in the tomb. And a day since she became contracted the deity. The one calling himself Naruto. As well as him being the Grim Reaper.

What was going on?

"Good morning, wife." said Naruto as Cornelia sat up in her bed.

Looking to a vacant area of her room, she found Naruto there. He was hovering 3 feet off the ground as black energy flowed off his body with his souls swirling around him.

"What are you doing?" asked Cornelia covering her body from the deity.

"I'm gathering power." said Naruto blankly.

At that moment, Cornelia's mind clicked. Yesterday she learnt that this person. This deity. Has dominion over the dead as well as the living. Able to bring those who died back to life. This was her chance.

"I want you to do something." she ordered.

"What is it?" asked Naruto dropping to the ground.

"You said that you have dominion over death. And you can bring the departed back to life. I want you to bring back my brother. Lelouch Vi Britannia." she barked.

"I cannot do that." stated Naruto shaking his head.

"Why not?" hissed Cornelia. "You saying you're a fake?"

"Not in the slightest. I am Death itself. But I cannot do that as I still feel the person's lifeforce. He is still alive."

"He is?" asked Cornelia with hope in her tone. "Where is he?"

"How should I know? I may feel the lifeforces of every single person on the planet. But I don't know where they are." confirmed Naruto.

"Then how do you...you know...do the reaping of their souls?" asked Cornelia.

"I am guided to them." said Naruto.

"My lady." came a voice at the door.

"What is it?" asked Cornelia.

"We've done some research regarding the man that came back with us. You may want to see this." said the person on the other side.

"I'll be out in a minute." said Cornelia climbing out the bed and heading to her closet.

"Doing a background check? Oh you sneaky minx." cooed Naruto.

"Shut it. I only seek to know about you." snapped Cornelia glarring at the death god in the room with her.

"You could've just asked me." stated Naruto walking out the door.

What shocked Cornelia was that he didn't just walk to the door. He just phased right through the solid wooden door as if he was a ghost. This sudden course of action was something she couldn't comprehend. It was impossible, yet he proved it was possible.

After getting dressed, she made her way to the lab where she found Naruto with the other scientists. Clearing her throat she spoke.

"So, what have you found?" asked Cornelia.

"What we've gathered so far is this." said one of the scientists gathered as they pulled up some documents on the screen.

"The Grim Reaper is actually a deity. One of the first to exist. The first was Kami, the god of the sky and light. Then there was Yami, god of the underworld and the ruler of demons. The Grim Reaper was the next and was charged with the reaping of souls. As it turns out, all these gods have a champion of some sorts. Weilding amazing powers and being on par with even the most strongest person. The documents also states that the gods choose a new god from each person that displays a certain qaulity." stated the scientst only to have Naruto scoff.

"What a load of horse shit." he barked.

"Documents never lie. They are accurate. This paints you to have been made a Grim Reaper. How you became one was..." trailed the scientist as he was unable to finish his sentance.

"Exactly. Your research was false. You understand nothing." barked Naruto again.

"Then why don't you tell us your story." hissed Cornelia.

"Very well. I will." said Naruto clearing his throat.

"Back before you even came into the picture. This world was once ruled by ninjas. People who exceled in combat that is incredible. We used powerful energy called Chakra. This energy was given to us by the gods. But that was all they did for us. We used this power to gain incredible feats of power. Medical treatment was strong, weaponry was created to increase our fighting power. But then we began to thirst for knowledge. And boy did we thirst for it. All nations pooled all resources together to try and unlock the greatest power that ever existed. The power of the divine. The power of the gods. After 4 greuling years of devoting ourselves in this research, we cracked it. We finally attained the knowledge of the divine. But we were also foolish."

"In what way?" asked Cornelia intrigued by such a tale.

"After gaining the knowledge of the gods, we basically in a sense became gods ourselves. The gods were outraged at what we had done and in an act of making us pay for stealing the knowledge of the gods, they opened the gates to Hell. Demons flooded the gates and murdered innocent people as they moved from town to town. Village to village. Country to country. Continent to continent. Taking it no longer, we banded together once more and battled this evil that was unleashed on us. I myself included. But we soon realized our weapons were useless against this foe. I broke into the forbidden vaults. Weapons that were considered too powerful were locked in there. One such weapon I acquired. The Kusanagi No Tsurugi. A powerful weapon that could kill not only demons, but had the power to kill gods as well."

"I'm guessing you used this weapon to fight back against the gods." said a scientist.

"I did. Using the weapon I gained, I was put as the leader of the 1st Unit. A group of elite fighters. With me as the spearhead. We carved a bloody path through the demons that invaded the gates and began to push back the tide of war. Tilting it in our favour. But a single god had other plans. The original Grim Reaper. During a mission to exterminate the demons in a village, I found him assisting the demons in killing everyone. As a means to test the power of the Kusanagi, I used the weapon to fight the Grim Reaper. The fight was long, but in the end, I preveiled. But the power that was dispersed after killing the Grim Reaper, was pulled into me. Turning me into the new Grim Reaper. But I retained my mind and used my new power to assist my comrades."

"What happened next?" asked Cornelia.

"We won. With death on our side, they had nothing to fear. Not only did I have the power over death, I could also use Necromancy. A dark at that resurrects the dead. Greater Necromancy not only reanimates the dead body, but restores them to life. We had nothing to fear. After years of fighting non-stop, we won. But I was foolish myself." said Naruto clenching his teeth.

"How so?" asked a female scientist.

"After we banished the gods from our world. Being this world, we lived in peace. I was at first praised for being the one that saved everyone, but it came to an end. My comrades and friends feared my power and in turn feared that I would be the one to do the same thing we had just been through. I pleaded with them that I would never do such a thing. But they wouldn't listen. They used the Kusanagi against me. My own closest friend used this weapon and attacked me. Even though I was the one to once use the weapon, due to my divine powers now. I couldn't touch the weapon. If I did, I would be in serious pain. He nearly killed me. But as he was about to deliver the final blow, a stepped back and he slashed me across the torso. That's also why the statues in the tomb had slashes across the chest." stated Naruto with his rage simmering down.

"But then why were the skeletons we found praying?" asked Cornelia.

"Ah, that's where the irony lies. See, when I sealed myself in that cave after creating my coffin, I vowed to them that they will hate and regret the day they turned against me. They thought it was a joke. Until diseases and plagues kicked in. My favorite was the Black Death. The plague that killed millions of people. They kept saying that the faces of those who died haunted their dreams and minds. It was me, taking revenge on them. A bunch of people came to my resting place to try and take revenge against what I did. But it was secured very well. Divine power is amazing when you know how to use it. Soon, their hostilities died out and they begged me to let those who died pass on. But I kept sending them back to haunt them. I didn't care what happened to them. They deserved it. I have the right to take revenge on the anguish and pain they put me through." growled Naruto.

"But where does Lady Cornelia play in this?" asked a scientist.

"Oh, that's a secret. I will tell you this though. I made a decree that if someone were to release me, I will grant them great power. But there were certain requirements needed. First, the person had to be a woman. The next was that they had to have witnessed horrendous pain. Their grief must be strong, but also stay true to their goal. Cornelia was the best candidate to release me. She had not only witnessed her mother be killed, but she also had so many people she considered friends and surrogate family members be killed. After witnessing a tidal wave of grief, I began to make her dream. She was the ideal candidate to set me free." said Naruto looking to Cornelia.

"But what does this now mean?" asked Cornelia.

"You can call on me to assist in battles. Ask me to murder others, I will do it. But you will not control me fully. I am still a god after all." said Naruto smiling devilishly. 'I will have my revenge. I will have my revenge against that cursed blade that did this to me. And the one who wields the weapon.'

And scene.

So what do you think about that?

Naruto has given everyone gathered the full backstory about himself and what he wants. How he was the one people saw as the greatest man to ever exist only to be betrayed by the ones who he once saw as allies.

But he soon gives one last piece of a thought. The blade that gave him that cut. He will take his revenge on the blade that did this to him.

So yes, this is like a revenge story.

As well, I forgot to add one more woman to the harem. This is her:

Rakshata - Code Geass.

Chapter 3: Death Has My Back.

Coming soon.
