So, if you are following me so far and wondering "Why make another story?" then I will tell you. I kind of just saw how small this fandoms archive is. Furthermore, I wanted to try something else other than the "OC from YGGDRASIL.". Anyway, why not have them by in the body of someone from another series? Yeah, that's partly why this isn't a crossover. That, and I might be using several so eh, what can you do?

Every one hundred years an event happens were barriers of reality bend and beings show up in the world. These beings form the basis for many of the legends of the world. Some saw them as gods that walked the world, while others remember them as great horrors. The Six Great Gods, Eight Greed Kings, The Leader of the Thirteen Heroes, these Players as they had been known to only a few.
These were people from YGGDRASIL a DMMO-RPG. The true nature of it known only to them and the few who had managed to learn it. The legacy they had left was closely guarded by a handful of forces as such things they brought with them could and had changed the course of history. Along with them, the world itself was altered as the native magic of the world were altered by their own.
Yet, legends tell of other individuals in the far-off lands. Of beings who had gotten lost from other realms. Some of which were made up as rumors about the so-called gods spread. A common reaction to the knowledge that such a thing offered.
Though with every tale truth may exist. Myths and legends are usually based on something that had happened. Something real that had once been spoken of by those who witnessed it. Change always came to the world every hundred years. Now, it was time for a cycle to have a few sudden and unexpected addition.
The sound of leaves rustling against the trees was heard across the small forest. The sunlight broke through a few clouds landing on the right eye of someone. A frown escaped their mouth as they stood up a splitting headache making itself know. "What's happened?" The person spoke with a soft feminine voice. "The last thing I remember was…"
She stopped as it all seemed kind of a blur. Like something had just randomly tossed her mind into a washing machine for no reason. What she did remember was that she was pretty sure she didn't just randomly collapsed into a forest. 'Wait something feels off.'
She felt the weight of something on her back. Something that felt like extra limbs. Turning around she saw two large black leathery wings. Stopping she looked down at her body as she made note as to its bizarre nature. Sickly-Pink skin, her right side of her body appearing feminine while the left appearing masculine. She held up bother hands before pulling her hair into focus. Two hair colors each on one side of her head. After a few stunned moments, her mind just blanked out.
After a few minutes, she finally slapped herself to make certain that this was just a dream. Instead, she proved that it wasn't. This was all too real. "What the hell!" Several thoughts raced through her mind. How did she get here and how did she turn into this was the first one. "Why am I Yubel?!"
Panic started to fill her at this revelation. Was she even female given Yubel dual appearances? After several minutes of going through the five stages of grief she finally and reluctantly accepted this. Still, didn't mean she enjoyed somehow becoming a Yugioh card manifest. 'Great, how am I supposed to get home looking like this?!'
Come to think of it were even was she? There wasn't any sound of people going about there day which was weird. She had to be in a forest and the closest forest she knew about was a few hours drive away. She started walking through the trees almost aimlessly. Finally, after half an hour of walking, she came across buildings in the distance. The problem was that they were burning though she briefly made note that they didn't look like a modern turn but something of a standard fantasy medieval-like village. "What is going on?!"
As if by instinct she flapped her wings and took off in the direction of the burning town. In the back of her mind, she wondered what she was even getting into.
The attack was too sudden. Beastmen raiding into their lands wasn't on anyone's mind. Now it seemed to be a reality they should have prepared for. One of the inhabitants of the village a little girl tripped tears in her eyes after watching her father cut down in front of her and her mother captured. "Looky here a little snack."
Tears continued down the frightened girls face as the beastmen. She closed her eyes too afraid to look. Before the beastman could grab her something landed in between the two of them. This something being what could just be described as demonic and a parallel of forms. For the now turned person looking at a creature straight from a fantasy world started to really hit the panic.
'... Am I even in my world anymore?' That question was not going to be answered anytime soon as her sudden appearances seemed to enrage the beastman.
He pulled out his sword as he glared at the demon in front of him. It wasn't like anything he had heard about or seen but it didn't matter. "Out of my way that girl is going to make a fine snack and I will kill you to get it," A deranged smirk formed as the idea of battling and killing such a creature crossed his mind. "Actually, I haven't had a proper fight in a long time."
The changed individual turned around looking at the terrified girl and then back creature. He had called her a snack. A snack as in something to eat. The idea of literally eating another sentient life form was utterly disgusting. 'What kind of a world did I end up in?!'
So many thoughts raced in her mind that when the beastman lunged at her she instead of dodging felt an instinct telling her to let the attack hit. She fought this instinct and brought her arm up as the sword hit it. Pain shot through her arm yet it wasn't cut or sliced off in any way. Her center eye glowed as the beastman looked at his own arm letting out a scream of pain as a cut opened up on his own arm all the way to his bones cutting through them and out the other end as his arm fell to the ground. 'It's like Yubel's effect.'
The beastman took a step back as he growled at her. He had no idea what she had done but he was going to have her head for that. He gripped the blade and trusted it at her stomach an action which the demon didn't bother with blocking. The attack made its mark and like before pain shot through her before her third eye glowed. The Beastman fell over as he could feel a cut forming almost through his body as he coughed up blood out his mouth. He stared into the two unnatural colored eyes of the demon. "Who… are you?!"
With how everything was going on she had almost forgotten that. Was she still who she was anymore? This was a different world and she didn't have the means to return. In fact, could she ever return looking like this? 'N-no I can't,' Her life, the friends she had, her family, and more were all now gone. Who she was is all gone thruster into a world she didn't know. With this a neutral face formed on his features as she looked at him. "Yubel."
Something within her told her to reach out to the beastman. Grabbing him by the neck she picked him up. A dark glow surrounded them both as the beastman screamed in her hands as the glow from his body was slowly absorbed into her, causing his body to age until nothing remained, but a shriveled up husk." Flashes of memories flowed into her. This was a raid on a human village near the border of something called the Dragon Kingdom. The rest of the memories she had gotten was revolting.
Turning sentient beings into cattle because they tasted good. The taste of human flesh. She almost wanted to throw up. How could anything who could think for itself dare think about eating another being who could hold a conversation with themselves? 'Yet, this is run of the mill for a world like this.'
She had a friend once who enjoyed Low Fantasy settings. A world not unlike this one and the crimes would be committed. Look at her she just eat someone without even a second thought. She sounded like a hypocrite. "P-please," The little girl was looking at her terrified and crying. She had gotten so caught up in everything about her that she had forgotten that the village was being attacked. "M-my mother and m-most of the village has been captured."
That was not a pleasant thought. The now named Yubel was conflicted for a second on what to do before looking into her eyes. 'Damn it morality!' She turned over and looked at the village. At least she didn't have to worry about being attacked, at least she hoped so. "Stay here I'll make them pay."
One part of her mind told her that this was just completely insane. Honestly, she had to agree with that part of her mind. What sane person did what she was about to do? 'Wait what am I even going to do?!' She was sure that like the card, assuming that even worked, that she didn't have any attack! 'You know if so COULD use magic or something… wait,' As soon as she said that she instinctive felt names of things and their costs. Her cards that she was given by her older siblings and collected. Many of which flooded her mind like spells. '... I should just accept this.'
After all this insanity she was willing to believe anything. Shaking her head she decided to sort out this all later. Right now she had other things to deal with. Like helping the girl and stopping a raid on a village. She raised her had as a translucent card formed within it harboring just outside her palm. "Archfiend Soldier!" The card showed before exploding as out of a girl of darkness a being appeared. A humanoid demonic looking man with a sword in his hands. 'It's really here in the flesh!'
"I await orders." He spoke with a dark tone as he looked at his summoner.
She knew that from the anime different incarnations that certain beings and objects could do this. Though something felt wrong when she summoned it. There was no time to dwell. "Archfiend follow me."
The beastmen looked at the humans before them. All huddled into the village center for them. It was so tempting to eat them now. Though they had ordered after all to bring them back to the city over the border. At the back of the group, one of the beastmen just looked at the humans annoyed by the fact they couldn't start eating them. He voiced this with a whisper under his breath. "At least we get to eat the dead corpses."
No sooner as he had said those words did another voice speak. A cold tone hiding restrained furry caught their attention. "Kill him."
The poor bastard didn't even have a chance to react as a sword came out piecing through his chest. The others turned to see Archfiend Soldier lifting his sword up along with the body while Yubel stood next to him. The people looked even more frightened at the sight of two demons standing in front with the impaled beastman. "What the hell is that!"
Yubel looked as Archfiend Soldier tossed the body to the ground with his sword. Yubel looked at the body as a feeling of sanctification came over her at looking at its dead body. 'Ok, it's disturbing that I'm taking joy at this.' Pushing away these feelings she turned to the rest of the beastmen. A cold look formed on her face as the memories of what they have done from that one she absorbed flashed. "Archfiend Soldier kill the ones who are like him leave the others alone."
"As you wish." Archfiend raced forward and carved through one if the other beastmen down the shoulder. Another shocked by his buddy firing swang his weapon at Archfiend Soldier with little success as Archfiend grabbed the mace with his hand. "Pathetic."
He impaled them with a sword through his chest. Tossed the mace out of his hand before pulling out and decapitating another of them as they tried to hit him. Yubel looked at the shower if blood both with a bit of disgust but also twisted joy. 'I am going to have to check to see if anything is wrong with me.'
She was aware that one of them had run at her with an ax in hand. Yubel glitched but didn't bother to defend herself as the attack hit her shoulder. The pain was annoying but the flash of blood spewing from a cut that formed in his caused her to gag in disgust as it got on her. The rest if the beastmen took a step back fear on their eyes as Archfiend Soldier was about to kill the one who had his arm cut off. "Cease your attacks."
Archfiend Soldier stopped as he stood at attention. The beastmen looked at her with fear in their body languages. A voice within her told her to slaughter them for their crimes. She pushed that voice away. As much as it was tempting to give them their just desserts, and boy was she just barely fighting it, she had to better than them. "I will give you one chance leave this village, never return, and I will spare your lives."
A few of them took that chance to run. A few remaining shook but stood their ground. Yubel raised her hand as Archfiend Soldier readied his blade to cut them up. They dropped their weapons and ran not wanting to continue a hopeless fight. Archfiend Soldier turned over to the humans. "What should I do about them?"
Yubel turned to her monster and then back at them. They looked utterly terrified of her. With good reason to as she did look like something out of hell and had with her a warrior who was equally as monstrous. "I have no further need of you."
A dark girl covered him as he disappeared from sight. She looked back at the people as one of them stood up. "W-w-who are you?"
She looked at them noting that they were still on edge. Understandable given they had seen many of them die from an attack by man-eaters. Inwardly she was conflicted on what to say. Her old life was effectively gone and a part of her felt betrayed about what she was about to say. Yet, another part of her was accepting this With no idea how she got here or if there was a way back she had t face it that she was never going to be who she was. "My name is Yubel."
Yeah, this time the person had lost much by being sent to another world. As for were in the timeline this takes place. Well, it's before The Great Tomb of Nazarick appears. Somewhere between a week and a month. As for why I choose for them to be Yubel from Yugioh it was because I had a picture on who I wanted. As for how her powers work in relation to Tier magic and the characters of the series. Well, first its a different system from it and as for how well if she was a character in the game she would be extremely terrible at defense and attack on both ends. Her passive being inviability to being harmed by direct attack damage (which like the card is inflicted on the opponent) but other forms like effect damage, poisons, and extra work. The absorption bit only works on more weaker foes as stronger ones resist or are immune to it and it could drive her mad if she over does it.
As for how dual monsters work. Well, Archfiend Soldier is equivalent to something of a Level 30-35 summons and while she doesn't have to use tribes it takes longer to summon creatures like a Red Eyes or a Blue Eyes. Also each summons is tied to her so destroying them causes her physical pain and if enough is destroyed or the damage is too much then well there the possibility of being killed (at an extreme). All in all she literally relives on others to either fight for her or take themselves out.
Anyway, I'll cya all next time. Oh, and Hail Lord Ainz!
