Reviews:
I won't be responding to prophecies for the sake of not spoiling this humble story. Thank you for the comment though!
Thank you for the critique alassandro. Yea, I just couldn't find a way to give good proportions without sounding boring. I will take it into account as I go forward.

Background: Blue Planet is a member of the guild Ainz Ooal Gown, one of the 41 Supreme Beings and known to be the creator of many aspects in the 6th floor of the Tomb. In real life, Blue Planet was a nature lover and his admiration reflected both to his character and his creations in Yggdrasil. Known as a romanticist by his friends, Blue planet made significant contribution to the creation of the guild base, The Great Tomb of Nazarick. It is known that one of his past time activities was to gaze at the night sky in the 6th floor of the Tomb.
His choice of character was a Descendant. The flavor text of this kin says, "In their eternal lives, many gods have partnered or copulated with mortals. Lineages originated from such cases has given fruit to individuals called "descendants". Immortal and infertile, these beings sometimes thought to bring good fortune or misfortune depending on the properties they had inherited from their distant ancestors. Being one of the worst races in early levels, descendants are seldom picked due to the dedication needed from the player to make it work. In the end however, with immaculate level distribution, one could gain access to racial traits that would provide them a very strong end game build.
Chapter 15
'Don't know if I should be overjoyed or depressed… After that day I had become certain that my lingering consciousness would get lost in the void. Nevertheless, after who knows how long I have found myself back in this world again.'
Blue Planet looked at the scene. The evil hung in the air with the taint of death attached to it. Weak were scattered and the strong stood over them. Though with different stakes, all of this was all too familiar. He saw a demon, before him was a sorcerer kneeled next to an unconscious knight. Both of them had their mana reserves exhausted and in bad physical condition, while the demon had taken minimal damage and still had significant amount of mana.
His intervention was needed. 'If I don't speak up, he will still notice me anyways. Besides I am quiet fonder of nymphs than of demons.'
"Ahem"
Edward turned and looked at the tall humanoid, a waves of magical aura exuded and slammed into him. Hadn't in his wildest dreams would he have guessed to find such a dominating presence in here. But there it was, raw might exuded from this being at levels that far surpassed Edward. Even Demiurge-sama in Edward's opinion, who was in the highest echelons of demonic might would be wary upon facing what he was facing now.
The being whom Edward had no idea which race it belong to, was around his height. Its naked body was toned and muscular, but not to the extent at which it stopped being esthetically pleasing. From tip to toe, it resembled a human, with the exception of an impossibly well-structured face of a young man, having human features and elven elegance while still being neither. His face was hairless and devoid of any sign of age; long dark green hair flew down his shoulders in wild curls. The being seemed out of place in this mortal plane as much as the undead. Edward quickly realized that he would not be taking him down without using his full strength.
On the other hand, Blue Planet was still musing about where he was and what he was seeing. 'An orc under the rubble, a human and a nymph, fighting a demon in the sewers. As old as I am now, still can't help but be surprised at the conflicts fate flings me into. Presumably centuries has passed, but somethings never change…' His reverie was cut short as the demon before him sprung to action.
[Partial Summon: Judge's Hammer]!
Blue Planet was not armed. In fact, he was completely naked while Edward had his full legendary set equipped. All Blue Planet could do before the hit was to usher a spell to protect the other three in the room. Due to the lack of time, he took the full brunt of the strike with no physical or magical defenses active.
Edward tracked the body as it went through the ceiling and meters of dirt and continuing its trajectory over the slums, under the moonlight. The demon held chase using greater teleportation.
Blue Planet gazed at the scenery as wind raced around him. 'Humanity has progressed so much… I guess the betrayer's dream became true, while the wilderness I was so fond of has withered.' He scowled disapprovingly to the ugly buildings of the slums. He was still bitter because of the past events after all. While Blue Planet once again had disconnected from reality, his body fervently fixed the bones broken by the demon's attack.
Edward watched as his prey impacted on the roof of a random house. The impact sent dust, bits of wood and rubble out the windows. The familiar blue hue wrapped around his body until it turned to the likeness of a thirty feet, robed judge. Taking into account the absence of equipment of his opponent, odds were looking even for Edward.
A woman's muffled scream came from the house, and some male shouting. After a couple seconds, Blue Planet made his way out of the front door, wearing a set of pajamas. 'Jeez, this stuff is itchy.' He gave himself a measuring look. 'Well, this is better than no clothes. I would have felt really weird if I were to fight naked...Woah!'
The Vanir looked at the giant in front of him. 'If we fight here, countless people will die.' He cracked his neck and calmed his breathing. After giving it a bit of thought, Blue Planet came up with a plan, 'I have just the right thing.' He focused to the mana flowing through his body. His mental focus narrowed progressively until mana moved from all around his body into his left hand, creating a small lump of energy that coursed through the veins to the palm of his hand. There it formed a single tiny bean seed.
As the Judge charged, Blue Planet carelessly flicked the seed on the ground.
[Jack's Beanstalk]
Edward was ticked by the enthusiasm and silliness of this new "threat". While this young man most definitely had power, he did not understand the predicament. 'No matter, proper etiquette can be thought.'
The giant hammer rose high in the air and Edward charged forward. Edward smirked as the young man flicked a tiny been at his feet. Was this man suffered a severe case of pacifism? However, his amusement vanished a second later.
For the lack of a better word, the seed exploded upon touching the ground. Life flourished at a rate that was akin to the rapidness of an explosion. The tiny bean sprouted roots that were as thick as a dragon's neck into the ground while gigantic stalks that put the width of the houses along the road to shame rose ever higher towards the night sky. Amongst the stalks, the blue giant was caught and it rose to the sky amidst the stalks.
[Jack's Beanstalk] was a tenth tier spell exclusive to Vanir. It was one of the rare crowd control spells that inflicted both [Knocked up] and [Rooted] status effects to the target. With the game turning into reality, the spell had become much more versatile than it was in Yggdrasil. The Vanir jumped on to one of the branches while the beanstalk kept growing higher and higher up to the sky.
It felt… great to regain power and consciousness after a long time. With the surge of power, Blue Planet's mind was focused and clear as a crystal.
[Wood Manipulation]
The beanstalk begun to bend instead of going straight up over the clouds. The houses looked like dices at this point from where Blue Planet stood. Couple meter up, the Edward struggled fruitlessly to move out from where he was stuck, in between three gigantic spiraling trunks, and numerous thick branches. The beanstalk arched like a rainbow over the slums and all the way over the walls as it effectively sent them outside of the city. As the stalk angled lower, the head of the sprout began to motion back to the ground.
The pure magical mantel around Edward eradicated the plant touching it but the destroyed parts grew at an even faster rate, keeping the giant in place. Annoyed, all Edward could do was to embrace for the massive impact.
The tip of the stalk skewered into the farmlands surrounding the city. The impact caused tremors that could be felt from the next closest city, which was ten miles away. Unintentionally, Blue Planet had created one of the wonders of the known world, which would be named the rainbow-tree long after the events of the current times.
At the bottom of the to-be-called Rainbow Tree, Blue planet stood looking into the ground. The Judge had been pushed deep into the earth along with the first hundred meters of the stalk. While Blue Planet was musing on how to get the demon out, the ground around him broke as in response to his thoughts.
Judge lounged forward, breaking through the earth and motioning to grab the Vanir with its only remaining hand. The blue hue had been disassociated around most of the summon. Displaying a very mad Edward floating in the core. Blue Planet skillfully dodged Judges hand. The ground underneath the Vanir rose in the shape of a block, propelling Blue Planet directly towards the exposed Edward.
Before Edward could do anything, the Vanir grabbed the demon by the throat and ripped him out of his summon. Both of them fell on the ground while the remainders of the Judge dissipated into the air. Blue Planet irked upon touching Edward but did not let go.
"I sense thousands living inside your shell demon. Or should I say… Edward?" A silent battle of their wills began.
Blue Planet's character path was very similar to the character path of their beloved guild leader Momonga. They specialized deep into the territories of their respective races. Momonga, choosing skeletal mage upon the start of the game had become an Overlord, with one of the rarest specializations called Eclipse. Blue Planet, a role player as hardcore as Momonga had started with a melee specialized descendant, becoming a Vanir with the epithet of Seed. One became the master of un-life, while the other became the master of life.
Because of his mastery over life and the living, Blue Planet could bend living NPCs and Mobs to his will. Within the game, the number he could control was inversely proportional to the controlled monster, human or humanoid's level.
'Edward is level 80; it is pushing the boundaries but I think I can do it.'
[Life Control]
They kept locked for a minute after Edward slowly released his grip on the Vanir, confusion could be seen in his pitch black eyes. Blue Planet released the demon and inspected him as he got up.
First thing Edward did was to brush of the dust over his clothes. Nothing made sense. A second before he was dying to smear the Vanir over his hammer, now he felt nothing against it. The Vanir smirked at him.
"So, how are you feelin'?"
"A little mana drained but nothing out of ordinary other than that Blue Planet-sama."
Edward took a step back upon hearing what had come out of his mouth. 'What?! Did I just give him a status check? Blue Planet? –sama?...'
The Vanir grinned even wider. "I don't think there is any reason to keep on fighting Edward-san don't you think? How about we check on the other three you had been giving a hard time to?"
Edward couldn't help but to nod and they simultaneously teleported back to where everything had started. The sorcerer was still next to the knight, managing to look both clueless and helpless. While the pile of stone was moving ever so slightly as the orc tried to get out.
Upon seeing the Edward and post-decapitation Grendell, Berethur let out a gasp. Feeling the sorcerers tension, Blue Planet gave him a calming nod. "Don't worry, me and Edward talked this out outside."
The sorcerer looked at him unbelievingly, "I saw him launched you into the ceiling, and both of you disappeared. This whole place shook so hard afterwards that I was half sure we were going to get buried. How am I supposed to believe that he isn't a threat?"
Blue Planet had to give the man the benefit of the doubt. After all, there was no way the sorcerer could have deduced how the fight was going to end. Even he did not know what to do until Edward smashed him with the hammer and a plan clicked in his mind. 'Well I got to show that the situation is under control.'
"Edward!" The Vanir yelled, "Give me thirty pushups."
Before the demon could say anything, he found himself laying on the dirty sewer ground. "One. Two. Three. …" Blue Planet smirked watching Edward count loudly with every new pushup.
Berethur was stunned, seeing the overpowered monster doing pushups on the ground. "I guess the situation is under control." He muttered. With the possibility of imminent death out of the equation Berethur realized just what had happened. His gaze shifted at Blue Planet staying a note on his face and a whole minute on the pajamas he was wearing.
"Grendell?" Berethur whispered.
"Hm, not quite. I am Blue Planet, nice to meet you…" The young sorcerer felt an imposing aura around him "Berethur."
Blue Planet then walked over to the sword laying on the ground. The silver blade of Humility was glowing red and yellow from heat. He pondered for a second and let out an "Ah" when he realized the situation. He moved to Berethur and touched his shoulder. Upon the touch Berethur could feel his wounds healing and mana replenishing. Blue Planet then motioned at Edward. With a nod the demon levitated the rubble off of the entrapped orc. Gallahad immediately sprung up with axe in hand, only to tumble and fall back to his knees. A small line of blood trickling down the side of his mouth.
Again, upon a single touch from Blue Planet, the orcs body was mended. Gallahad looked at the Blue Planet with wide eyes, only to give a small respectful bow. When his eyes caught Edward, the air become tense again. Before anything could happen Blue Planet intervened.
"Stand down, Gallahad. Edward is under my command now."
"What about Joann?" Berethur said from the otherside of the room.
"I don't sense any life in her." Berethur looked at him in shock. "Sorry, but us Vanir's are masters of life and life only. Nothing in my abilities can bring back the dead, whom has passed onto another phase of the Cycle. What you would need is a necromancer or divine caster."
Berethur looked a little desperate, "Is there any other way?"
Blue Planet mused, "Well, there are items that can bring the dead back to life. Sadly, my inventory was scavenged ages ago. I do not have any items that might help you."
After a minute of tense silence, where neither party knew what to do next, Blue Planet Cleaned his throat. "I guess it is my time to depart. You should be good on your own, especially with a human settlement right above you." He couldn't help but say "human settlement with some spite.
Before Blue Planet could move, the sorcerer yelled again.
"Wait!"
Blue Planet raised an eye brow. "Do you have another inquiry?"
Berethur looked at the man in front of him. Although he thought of him as a man, the better word would have been male. While his gender was apparent, he highly doubted Blue Planet was human. In all honesty, it felt inappropriate to gaze to Blue Planet's figure. Although he was in pajamas, the being felt akin to the feeling one get in their life when one feels the invisible hand of fate, of god. Berethur took a moment to gather himself.
"Come with me to the floating castle."
"What?"
"You… you should come with me to the floating castle. I have made a promise."
'Floating castle huh… A vacation after being out of commission for so long. It does sound interesting enough.'
The Vanir tapped his chin with his finger. "Why not."
Oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo
Alright, I have been zealously sticking to cannon and trying to make everything plausible both according to the rules of physics and Overlord leveling system. If you point out grammar mistakes I will come back and fix them.
Let me know what you think about my writing. As always, thank you for reading, reviewing and (Possibly?) enjoying!
It was pointed out that divine equipment is rarer than I have thought. Fixed!
