Warning though, gore might make this chapter rated m for mature

The man sat on a chair with his VR headset, playing the game, YGGDRASIL. He was a soldier in the real world. He retired later on at the tender age of 30. It was a very young age to retire for any job.

However, he had seen enough. These days, he worked as a military instructor. Free from real fighting out in the warzones. The Nazi survivors of WWIII formed their own factions and one of them terrorized the countrysides of Japan. Their name was Millennium (Yes a hellsing reference) (I ran out of ideas ok?)

He was a commander in the japanese military, JSDF. The man was an excellent soldier and tactician. He did a good job in bolstering his squad and achieved great things with them. They were good friends too, until they died and left him all alone.

It was a mission to attack a Millennium warehouse and destroy their weapon supply. However, a squad of soldiers were lying in wait with assault rifles in hand. The intel they got was a trap. The enemy knew that the JSDF would send their most talented squad on an important mission such as this and planned to weaken Japan's military power with an ambush.

The squad got to the warehouse and spotted a bunch of guards. The squad started shooting them, using the plant life as camouflage. The guards didn't stand a chance. They were mowed down by the squad's M9000 assault rifles before they could even shoot back. Each member of the squad targeted a single guard, each fired at the same time, and quickly finished any other guard that was not covered by a squad member.

Saki, the pink haired, flat chested woman in the squad flashed the man with a v with her fingers. She also had a big grin on her face, showing her spotless, white teeth. They were probably fake.

The ability of the modern dentistry industry was great.

Unknown to the man, Saki had a crush on him. Since he was uninterested in love, and was still a virgin at the age 25, he had no way of discovering Saki's feelings.

The man kicked the door to the warehouse open. His squad had their assault rifles ready for any surprise attacks. You never know what could hit you.

The warehouse was dark, the only light coming from outside the door. The sunlight reached a certain point then stopped. Alex, the blond, muscular american immigrant, found a light switch with the help of the sunlight.

The lights went on, revealing a bare warehouse. Bare except of the row of Nazi soldiers pressed against the walls. Each one had a yellow and black uniform and a Gewehr 300 in their hands, ready to shoot.

There was no cover. The Nazis made sure of that. There was only the sounds of guns firing and the sick, smell of blood. The first to fall was Alex, shot in the forehead, then countless times in the chest, exposing his ruined intestines. He fell to the ground, limp and dead, a look of emptiness in his sea blue eyes.

The man had no time to mourn though, as he was preoccupied shooting back and trying to not get shot.

The Nazis were barely aiming. Since there was so many of them, they aimed for center mass among the JSDF squad. The exit was blocked by a hail of bullets, promising to mow down anyone that tried to escape. Satoshi did. The wisecracker and entertainer of the group. The squad was always entertained by his jokes and circus tricks.

He thought that his squad had no hope of winning and tried to run and call for reinforcements. He was mowed down. His rements barely resembled that of a human being's. The bullets ripped through his flesh and his bones, leaving him with countless wounds. His body resembled that of one of those pictures that showed a human's muscle tissue in science class.

Just like that, his team was mowed down before the man's eyes.

He and Saki were the last of their squadron and they shot back. The rest of their squad was eliminated so the Nazis focused their fire power upon them. The man was about to be shot when Saki ran in front of him, taking the bullets that were meant for him.

As the woman who loved him died, falling into his arms, she whispered one thing.

"I love you"

The man's eyes went wide when he heard that. He let go of the useless hump of mutilated meat that used to be a pink haired woman and observed her.

Time seemed to flow in slow motion. The right side of Saki's cheek was blown off, showing off her perfect fake teeth, now covered in blood. Grey brain matter flowed from her shattered skull, mixing up with her tears and blood. Despite all that and the fact that she looked like a demon with no left cheek, she still looked peaceful.

Then the man saw red, nothing but red.

An agent from the higher ups told him what happened later. He was in the hospital, recovering from multiple bullet wounds. When the black-clothed agent looked at the man, he showed fear in his eyes.

The agent told him that all the Nazis in that warehouse had been brutally slaughtered and mutilated in the most terrifying of ways.

After he recovered, he quit the military and became a gamer instead. Turns out that gaming was as adequate as any alcohol. He spent his days on Yggdrasil farming and PKing, keeping his mind off his memories.

His username was Mallador9000, named after the nickname Saki gave him. She said she got it from a book. His favorite number was 9000. It was part of the name of his favorite gun.

His avatar was extremely powerful. His character was often called The Reaper because he hunted players for the right amount of gold and items. Few saw him and lived, hence the name Reaper.

After he killed the players he hunted, he left behind a purple raven feather as a sort of signature.

The feather was made from an item he made himself with his enormous amount of gold and therefore, could not be replicated.

His species was called the Lord Shadow Wraith. The species was given to the most powerful Wraith in Yggdrasil. The species allowed the ability to travel to the Shadow Realm, [Shadow Travel]. The user could travel to the shadow realm and teleport anywhere they want on the map in that world. You could not teleport into a dungeon or guild hall of course.

The ability was very overpowered and protected Mallador's reputation of only appearing near the person he was going to kill.

Once, Mallador was paid to kill a certain person. When he tried, Touch Me stopped him because of his obsession about justice. They dueled until both of their health almost reached 0. After the fight, Mallador was invited to Touch Me's guild. Mallador accepted the invitation and was accepted into Ainz Ooal Gown.

However, the Devs did not like the amount of hate they received for the Reaper.

"Fix the game! That guy is too op!"

That is what most of them said. Some were hunted multiple times by Mallador to be lowered them to a certain level. They ragequit the game, never coming back. Therefore the Devs made a deal with Mallador. They didn't want to ban him because of his skill at the game and some of the Devs were even friends with him.

Therefore, the DEVs offered Mallador a deal. They told him that he could only accept mission to kill entire guilds of level 100 players in their guild halls and had to tell the guilds about his arrival one day prior to his assault. They would get the time to prepare for the attack and actually stand a chance against the Reaper.

The Devs thought that this would give the victims an actual chance against their assailant and would possibly kill him.

This idea did not work of course. The guilds were slaughtered even with their preparations. The reaper was probably the most skilled and op player in Yggdrasil. His quick reaction speed from being a soldier helped.

He could counter the enemy's spells a second after they were cast.

Touch Me was only able to tie with him with his op combination of his defensive abilities and skills that made him the most powerful tank in Yggdrasil.

However, Mallador was able to lower his health to near 0. If he could do that to the truesilver Paladin, what changed did the other players have?

Mallador and Touch Me were tied for 1t place on the Yggdrasil leaderboard, The players on the leaderboard were organised by their total kills in PvP and their contribution to their guild.

Since Mallador had no guild before joining Ainz Ooal Gown, he was first place only because he had the most kills in PvP in the game, beating the second placed player by 1000 kills.

The Dev also gave Mallador another requirement however. He would have to track down any hackers and abusers of the game and kill them. This would instill fear into the hearts of those people and make them stay on the righteous path.

In other words, Mallador was the Devs' enforcer. Simply banning the offenders wasn't enough. The Reaper was to kill and humiliate them so they would learn their lesson.

When this message appeared in Mallador's mailbox, there was a message from Munakata, his best friend among the devs. They usually went out for drinks on sundays and talk about their lives.

The message said, "Give Em hell."

Mallador had smiled since that message was definitely something his old friend would say.

He enjoyed the game to its fullest, it was fun, until the end came.

This chapter was primarily about the Reaper's background

Next chapter will be about his experience during the final days of Yggdrasil

It will talk about his abilities
