So how did the being known as the god of destruction and destroyer of realms come about? Well it all started far before that time. The being was known as Sans who was a common skeleton monster. Monsters and humans go through similar stages to cultivate towards transcending into godhood. They absorb spirit energy using unique cultivation techniques.

It depends on luck and a good family background to have the resources and techniques to ascend. Since experts like creating burials and trials for their treasures to be passed on it meant luck was a powerful factor. Sometimes you might stumble upon a legendary plant or object while out in the unforgiving wilds as well.

Back to the story Sans wasn't anyone special from a normal skeleton family with average cultivation talents. He was accepted into a minor sect. He was patient though and extremely stubborn. He'll admit that meditation or cultivation was the perfect lazy method to get stronger. Most people early on found cultivation straining as reaching out to absorb spirit energy with ones soul and mind could be, but Sans had an extremely high intelligence even with his average talent.

Then the dark cultivators started to make their move against other sects in masses. Sans was forced to be productive and 'die for the future of the sect'. So Sans fought. It was a good thing that skeleton monsters when trained with spirit energy had some of the most powerful natural abilities. Unfortunately most skeleton monsters were to frail to cultivate spirit energy.

Sans was nowhere near the most power cultivator and against the dark cultivators that was a death sentence. Sans was lethally wounded by a cursed blade. He took out his opponent by pure luck while bleeding out. But Sans wanted to live. He tried treating the wound but it wouldn't stop bleeding. He hacked up blood feeling dizzy and in agony.

He reached into the enemies spacial ring that acted as a storage for important objects. He didn't have much time and maybe trying his luck as finding a life saving elixir from the enemy wasn't the smartest move. He ended up finding a white and a red vial. The two vials were suspicious but he would be dead in the next little bit anyways so bottoms up.

If he was lucky maybe one of them would drug him to unconscious or put him out of his misery faster. That cursed blade really makes injuries hurt a thousand times worse. Drinking them he collapsed and started spasming on the ground. He woke up later  with a migraine and slightly defying gravity. He was still bleeding but the blood was disappearing before it hit the ground.

Sans would like to deny it, but it seems he was a ghost now. They were also considered dark cultivators. The downsides he was back to square one at cultivation, he would have to kill and cultivate in places with a lot of death, and he was extremely vulnerable to light cultivators. The upside was he could live forever without transcending, he couldn't get sick or cursed, and he was extremely hard to permanently kill now.

Sans or the newly dubbed ghost Genocide now lived alone far away from civilization. He wouldn't take his chances and with so few needs as a ghost he could be as lazy as hell. It was unfortunate that he had to kill anyone he came across. Whether the light side would want to purge him or the dark side could still take him a ghost puppet for their undead cultivators as he was to weak to survive such attention.

When one grows stronger though they naturally attract the stronger cultivators and Genocide eventually gained that strength throughout the centuries. He found himself cornered and forced to work under some short of bastardly titled ghost king named Reaper. Genocide went through many fights and grew closer Reaper.

But sadly Reaper left to ascend to higher plane without even a goodbye even if they were border lining becoming mates. Geno was extremely bitter about it. He felt any reason to ascend leave him when Reaper abandoned him. Instead of going to a higher plane where he would have to put a lot more work in to ascend he decided to fuck that.

He was quite content watching the mortals for amusement and never lifting a finger. And he wouldn't admit to being bitter enough about Reaper abandoning him to not ascend himself.

But something ruined it all. Genocide's plane crashed violently into another far to close by. It was a combination of luck, being a ghost, and the strongest in these two realms that allowed Geno to survive long enough for the next course of actions. The planes exploded into cosmic energy taking Genocides surviving soul essence at its core.

So Error was born of cosmic energy and all of Genocide's memory. Error's existence was different though he wasn't a ghost, but a pure energy being. Pure energy beings form when powerful energies surge and converge into a new existence. It's how elementals and other cosmic creatures were born.

Error wasn't Genocide though it would be like comparing the way a fish thinks to a human. He had a natural awareness of the realms that make up the multiverse. The way he was born gave him a natural connection to the multiverse. An understanding of it all far more profound than even many of the highest gods.

He carried on with many of his previous selfs tendencies like a dislike for being around others, his stubbornness, and laughing at the lesser beings stupidity. Yeah Error wasn't a nice skeleton. The multiverse did an equivalent of tickling the back of his head when two planes where going to collide.

He decided to deal with it more out of annoyance from being bugged by the same feeling hundreds of times. He kinda enjoyed destroying one of the planes back into nothingness. Even though he didn't really need it the multiverse gave the equivalent of handing the energy that made up the plane to him to absorb.

It felt quite pleasant and so that's how Error's destroyer life started. This isn't the end of the tale though as what was destruction without creation.

Sketch was a simple skeleton who lived in a modern style plane. There wasn't cultivation here, but advanced technology and a peaceful world. It approached a similar fate as Error's own though as two planes collided. Sketch had no idea what happened, but I do.

Sketch luckily fell through a crack in reality when the planes crashed and ended up in a good cultivation one. Putting aside the drama about being in a place on written in stories and somehow a long way from home. Sketch was a lucky protagonist having monstrous talent and luck it was as if fate was on his side on his journey to ascend.

Being as skeleton monster only helped and once he reached transcendence when he could truly train abilities outside of his skeleton ones and gain a true godly title. Ink and creation on his fingertips he rose to become Ink the god of creation. Ink succeeded the other gods in power and rested as the king of gods.

Ink was only ever moved to assist if the main higher planes where threatened. Luckily for Error the higher planes could never touch each other only the lesser ones could. It didn't stop the other gods from becoming fearful of the being eliminating the planes. They sent out their own to stop the other but no one ever returned.

They didn't know what the being looked like just that they were powerful and destroying lower realms. They worried their own would be targeted and were just waiting for the being to attack. Error didn't care and Ink wasn't worried, but instead curious. The dark and light gods kept their distance from each other unless a contract marriage was involved and they only gathered together when the god king called or special events.

Dream and Nightmare where born of the god of feelings and are the natural born gods of positivity and negativity. Reaper the ghost king ascended to become the god of death. Life is one of the oldest gods because she is that kind lady who when crossed completely destroys you. Asgore was killed by Ink because he was the previous god king who was the god of war which had everyone under his tyrant rule.

Blue is the god of peace. Fresh is the god of chaos. Dust is the god of fire. Killer is the god of tragedy. Sci is the god of progress. Lust is the god of love. Horror is the god of blood. Cross is the god of strength. Outer is the god of space. Bird is the god of air. Red is the god of hatred. Frisk is the god of kindness and Chara is the god of vengeance. Alphyus is the god of science. Undyne is the god of battle.

(My Wuxia/xiaxia fazes waxes and wanes as all my others. In a world cultivation to get to the top, both Error and Ink have their strange luck. Godhoods are titles gained from cultivating to master those specific concepts on a profound level.)
(Error is a loose cannon. Who has no idea about the culture, tradition, and civilization of the gods because of his unique birth away from the gods. Ink acts like a calm strict op god king cultivator that stays out of mortal and lesser matters.)
