2024-10-29 19:42:56Putting those thoughts aside while dealing with the awkwardness of being a couple, they both finally reached the floor that presumably accommodated all the guests. They both stood at the main gate of the guest hall, blocked by four guards.
Artemis unhesitatingly flaunted the invitation, whereas Creed had to stamp his I'd as her official plus one.
Creed's focus shifted at the guards and felt pressure weighing him down. This was the same kind of pressure that he felt when the squad from the War God Pavillion arrived to suppress the Yaksha.
He was sure that if he had to fight them head-on, the outcome wouldn't be in his favor. Despite their harmless appearance and shallow smiles, each of them has a terrifying experience in combat.
'Man! The security is even bett

Apaurushya Blending In
The atmosphere inside the hall was horrifying and diabolical. At least that is what Creed felt. Creed noticed everyone had a smile on their faces, but the same couldn't be said for him.A flamboyant element of amusement and shock was noticeable in their eyes the moment they entered the hall.Even after toning down his perception, he couldn't help but feel himself dragging his feet through a dense quagmire.This feeling of dread and nausea happened because Creed has always been sensitive to rhythms.He knew it was almost impossible for anyone to leave no trace of their rhythm. No matter how strong an individual is there is a certain limit of masking their rhythm. In fact, the stronger the person is, the more difficult it is to hide the leakage.
Apaurushya What's so funny?
"Good Evening Gentlemen, it's a pleasure to meet you." Creed stretched out his hand for a handshake. He was trying to make a lasting impression to the best of his abilities. For once, he was trying to behave the way they all were expected to. Unlike the previous two parties, he didn't want it to turn into a complete bust. However, all four of them passed through him as if he was a ghost. Creed awkwardly stood like a lifeless apparition with his arm suspended in the air. Apparently, his attempt to make a good impression had failed miserably. He exhaled a dreary gasp and shrugged his shoulders at their impudence. He couldn't say much since all of them were of the same age as his so-called girlfriend, thus older than him. Both boys in the groups had black hair and dark
Apaurushya Commoner
"Did she call that dude her boyfriend?" "No fucking way… she must have said toy friend." "Toy friend… are you an idiot… is that even a word?" "No..no… no… I refuse to believe this! There has to be an explanation around this." "Shit! How did that punk manage to woo a beauty like her… they aren't even the same age… look at his crappy tux... this makes no sense!" "Seriously! Who the hell is this punk?" "A guy like that with a beauty like her… everyday we stray away from God!" While the mod burst with the distinct chatter of denial, the colors on the faces of the closest four kept draining away. All of their smiles have turned
Apaurushya Coquettish Intention
The crowd gradually parted to let this individual pass through. Earlier, Creed thought that she was just passing by, but his worst nightmare was turned into a reality now that he realized that she was inching straight towards him. Her elegant walk unsettled the waves of primal urges buried deep within the minds of onlookers. The transition of a glimmer of the passing through the thin fabric of her gown made it seem that one could almost see through the shape of her lingerie. The alluring curves on her sizzling physique appeared similar to forbidden fruits no mortal should ever touch. However, the most attractive and enchanting aspect of her appearance was her hair. Dense gray hair that almost seemed like the reverend fur of the proud howling alpha of the wolf pack. The light that hit her golden translucent gown scattered into a fading glimmer.
Apaurushya Snickering Clown
Kiara's smile vanished into thin air, "Well, this is more of an offer than a question. Would you be willing to ditch Art and become my boyfriend instead?" "Huh! What?" Not just Creed, but everyone immediately got spooked to their very souls. Artemis' face changed into the ugliest shade of scarlett. While Jina and Olivia had their eyeballs detached from their sockets. Max and Ivan also jerked their necks back in utter shock. Kiara's bizarre question caught everyone off guard, including Creed. For one second, Kiara and Artemis seemed like acquaintances, however, now this question has flipped the perspective upside. They were definitely not friends. Creed was not happy about Kiara's attempt to slap Artemis in public, either. However, for some weird reason, Artemis and e
Apaurushya Crossroad
Creed felt a jittery, numbing sensation inside his brain. Akash's provocative attitude hasn't changed a single bit. The last time Creed met him, something similar had happened. He kept egging Grisha and realized this guy didn't know when to shut up.Kiara's face was turning red and green, but Akash's taunt didn't go away. Creed didn't like that at all. He could see steak knives coming out of her eyes."Hey, hey! Why are you glaring at me like that?" Kiara's lingering killing intent rattled them all, Akash felt his years of his life being shortened, "to be honest, It's not my fault that you got shot down at your very first confession. Besides, if you wanna be a sugar mommy so bad, you can be mine, you know that, right?""… you bastard!" Kiara spat bloodlust from her eyes, her voice shuddered, "Cut.. it.. out."
Apaurushya Escalation
'Damn! This guy is fucking insane. He can rip all of us here to shreds if he wanted to… So this is the body of an ascended human being.'Creed couldn't help but feel spooked when he tried to measure Akash's true strength from the deadening rhythm leaking out of his body. Not to mention his Chakra control also got better from the last time. The Ascension has truly made him a different kind of monster.Regardless, Creed's focus shifted to another figure casually approaching him. It was none other than a beauty who took him to UCC as her plus one. Creed immediately recognized Mira.Her eyes were completely still. Not even the slightest bit of movement was visible in her pupils. However, for some weird reason, Creed felt his senses being gnawed off to ribbons. A gust of dark insanity seemed to be creeping b
Apaurushya Cat's out of the bag
"Artemis, you have every right to be angry." Akash's face immediately turned serious. There was not a single trace of that unrestrained goofiness on his face, "I sincerely apologize for getting carried away. I really shouldn't have done that." "Apologize! How about I kick you in the pants and apologize too? I thought of you as one of my closest friends, but I had no idea you hated me to the extent where you would attempt to put a dent in my relationship with such a shameless tactic. You make me sick." "Yes. You are right. I hate to say it, but my curiosity just got away from me. However, let me assure you, Art, that I had no intention of testing his character. I wasn't looking down on him, but if I made you feel that way, I might as well apologize to you." "Artemis! Calm down… It's fine." Creed interrupted the ve

Apaurushya Disclaimer
Hello Readers, Thanks for staying with me for this long. I know this is sudden but making you all dangle for a petty frequency of uploads is just too cruel. That's why I have decided to mark this as a conclusive checkpoint i.e. mark this book as completed. Been a wonderful journey so far. Every comment I have seen or read (good or bad) has brought a froth of emotions that drove me to write my heart out. In my eyes, as a story, Apaurushya has proven itself as a story with a potential of unimaginable horizon. Every character has surprised me by their actions. Each of them have a life. Almost as if I don't need to write them; they can write themselves. Nevertheless, this isn't the end. We haven't even scratched the surface of what really lies there beyond the ungodly boundaries of these Akashik space anomalies. If you wanna connect, bug me or l

"Jake, wait! I'm coming with you!""Mira! You're here too…""Yeah! Just let me come with you… ""Nope! Just stay here, there is nothing much for you to do...I'm gonna get him cleaned, and drop him to his home!""Come on! Don't be like that…""No means no…" Jake shunned her down. "both of you just stay put…it's better that way. He messed with the alliance, so it's best you keep your distance for now.""Don't worry about me!" Artemis interrupted, "Also, I could say the same to you! How is, you helping him out any different than me!""Alliance has eyes everywhere… I already got myself involved so
Apaurushya Harsh Reality
Creed felt a numbing headache from all the lights that ravaged his vision. One of his knees immediately gave up and kneeled on the ground. Fortunately, Jake grabbed him by his shoulders before he could fall down."Argh… come on… Stand straight you idiot…""Fuck you! I'm trying, asshole… give me a break!""Serves you right, fucker… " Jake replied with a grunt, "Nobody asked you to throw your sword at her when you're bleeding from your ass! Fucking show off…""Show off, that's what you think?… I was trying to kill her!""Kill her! Seriously, dude, what's gotten into you?" Jake frowned as he dragged him forward. "Better, keep your anger in check. If it wasn't for Miss Luna and me,
Apaurushya Abandonement
"Just do what I say…" Luna's domineering voice broke from the sheer rage, "Or I will cut that bird and shove its head inside your ass."Creed's hair on the neck stood up, and he gulped a mouthful. He immediately turned around and limped back towards the cage in haste.As he saw the Little gobbler almost passed out from exhaustion, a sense of urgency rose. He arched his back to an extreme and swung his right arm.At the last moment, his mayhem saber appeared inside his hand. The saber hit the cage and a loud mechanical screech boomed in the hall.~CLANKUnfortunately, Despite Creed using so much force, the cage did not break. The horrifying sound of metal made Little Gobbler tremble inside.
Apaurushya Sucker Punch
With his unrestrained perception, his eyesight has been giving him trouble with the information overload. Because of this, his brain has temporarily blurred his vision this entire time. He couldn't see the people who interpreted the battle, only the dark shadows that were too close to him. Creed has been fighting while completely dependent on his other senses. However, just from the brief exchange, he subconsciously understood that this wasn't enough against the one who stood in front. The sheer rage has pushed him beyond the edge. Creed's vision was so dark and dingy that he couldn't even see his face in such a close combat. His brain was a complete mess and volatile perception had put him in an aggressive state, almost like a machine programmed to annihilate whatever comes in front. All Creed could see wa
Apaurushya Who Rips Who
'So she has ascended too…' Akash murmured to himself, 'bad! This couldn't get worse... Gryffon… What are you going to do now? You better run this time...' The pressure that burst out was something Akash and Kiara were already familiar with, because the intensity was the same as his own rhythm. This kind of pressure could only come from a person who has ascended from the boundaries of bhu-lok. Kiara and others were also freaking out right now. Artemis and the four siblings' faces have turned pale already. They all understood that this just might be the end of this entire thing. There was no way Creed could stand up to her. His level of power was far too low compared to hers. Even with his berserk skill, catching up to an ascended individual is just not possible for a mere elite, no matter how strong. The best cour
Apaurushya Girth of Blood
A lustful blush appeared on Grisha's cheeks and a huge smile appeared on her rosy lips. Her chest tightened with the shock waves that appeared. She rubbed both of her palms and blew into it."So this is what she gave birth to… the blood doesn't lie… I just never noticed… A fire that burned him into something else… he isn't just a chakra freak anymore… he never was… He is what he's always been…""The son of Queen..."The entire went numb when they bathed under the demonic intent oozing out of the blade. The dazzling sparks that burst from the clashes burned into the eyes of the observers.Not just Creed's blade, but his entire body shined with glimmering scarlet. There was no corner on the stage that hadn't been
Apaurushya Change of perception
"I ask you again!" Creed shot a glare, "Which one of you touched my bird?"The man coughed the ground with his bloody organs. The stage boiled under the tension undefined in all senses. Yet, Dollar Twenty and the other five stood unfazed by the turn of tables.However, amidst the chaos, the audience's guts flipped upside down. Both McConnell and Jiang siblings felt their lifespan shortening.Artemis' eyes turned teary. Her ears burned red when she saw gallons of blood gushing down from Creed's head, dripping all the way to his chin.Kiara, Akasha and Grisha looked at the scene with tightened chests. A razor-sharp sensation crawled inside their blood vessels. Not just them, but several hunters from the crowd now had their undivided focus on the unbridled escal
Apaurushya Limitless Paranoia
"Little… Gobbler…" Every hair on Creed's skin stood up straight. His very soul almost rejected his body, and images around him dulled to a standstill. He could hear his heart thumping inside his eardrums. A chronic corruption leaked into his eyes when he heard Dollar Twenty start the bidding. "The bidding for the High-Tier Inca Aves starts with $300 Thousands!" "$350 thousands!" "$400 thousands!" "$450 thousands!" "$500 thousands!" The sound of chatters began to fade out. Creed vision blacked out and a high-pitched siren hijacked his eardrums. His pulse spiked up to a gh
