2024-10-29 19:42:56With muffled steps inside the isolated shrubbery beyond the public shelter, Creed stormed through the familiar woods as fast as he could. A slight urgency was buried under his neutral expressions.
He had changed his attire from the black blazer to his comfortable hunters' kevlar. Normal articles of clothing couldn't compare to these hunters' apparel. His fingers instinctually slide across the grated surface of the shoulder to discern the microscale weaving on the surface of his brand-new as well as an expensive piece of clothing.
Durable, temperature resilient, along with the nano-liquid circuitry for maximum damage repair. His new hunter's kevlar that Creed had ordered from the genome library portal arrived yesterday. For that, he had to make a quick round trip to 'Zerg' to bring his new suit.

"You can go home!"The voice pulled him back to reality; he turned back and saw instructor Maira inching closer. Even in the summit's darkness, Creed could recognize her even in the darkest of places.She wasn't on her feet but seated gracefully on a saddle over a beast that looked similar to a black panther. The paws of the panther scratched the ground, while the scarlet furs of nightshade added a glimmering contrast to his overall majestic appearance."Eh!! But… why ma'am?""If I knew that the meeting was because of the Malaka hunt... I would have delayed your inclusion.""I don't understand...what does it have to do with you telling me not to go?""Do I really have
Apaurushya Dual Collaboration
Under the dimly lit firmament of unexplored celestial fabric, the air whispered nothing, and the ground screamed curses. Seven hushed hunters were now standing in front of a dark space that almost seemed like the edge of the universe.'So this is the outer region!'Creed gazed at the boundary of the outer region. This was the farthest he had come from the public shelter.'Damn... Spooky!!'Others just entered the thin dark film as if it was nothing. Beyond this boundary, Creed saw a forest waiting for him. The forest where the Malaka was spotted.Agenor and others have already tied up their mounts outside the perimeter. These beasts attract too much attention, and bringing them any further was a
Apaurushya Mayday
Agenor had already relayed to everyone that the team that came before had a total of 8 members. They were already 30 km deep inside the wretched forest. Yet, so far, no signs of struggle, no dead bodies, no blood splatter, no broken weapons, nothing was spotted. Creed's senses were beginning to tingle, and a sense of urgency was swallowing his sanity. His perception was now running wild, forcefully. 8 party members and yet nothing out of ordinary, as if the forest swallowed them all in the blink of an eye. If they couldn't find even a single drop of blood even after coming this deep inside the forest, this fact alone escalates the dangers of the mission by several notches. 'Weird… this is weird!' Creed mumbled inside his head. Soon enough, Creed's e
Apaurushya Signal
Creed and Nakiya were already aware of this mnemonic pattern drawn on the wooden cutout. Standardized sequences of two different signal durations, called dots and dashes, used frequently to convey information cryptically."This is…" Nakiya uttered"Yeah!" Colt replied. "A cryptic mayday!"Creed mumbled inside his head, 'It's Morse code!"Creed's eyes shook in their sockets. His pulse elevated the moment he set his eyes on the blood-stained cutout. A surge of the intensity of thoughts overwhelmed his mind and hit him like a truck.A sense of darkness overshadowed his sanity. His veins had trouble containing the massive blood rush inside his body. His focus on reality seemed to grow wafer-thin, and his
Apaurushya 20 Southwest
These rhythmic fluctuations were exceedingly discreet. Discrete enough to be easily confused with any random itch on the skin. However, Both Agenor and Rain understood that it wasn't and halted immediately."Alright!" Agenor immediately turned his head towards Rain and mumbled, "You take the lead this time..."Rain nodded, turned her feet and dashed in a different direction. Agenor followed. They both immediately vanished from their spot into what seemed to be an entirely different direction from the current path.After receiving what seemed to be a signal. Rain and Agenor immediately ran towards the origin of it.Direction or destination was not a problem from Rain either. Echolocation was one of the most convenient passive abilities for hunters, that is if they knew ho
Apaurushya Heat
'What is going on?' Creed mumbled, 'of all places, she had to hide here…'Creed could sense a dense, callous aura tangled with the air molecules. A dense shrubbery that he had been constantly seeing everywhere was now gone and was replaced by extremely thick trees, randomly growing from the ground at a sufficient distance of 4 to 5 meters.The entire terrain seemed like a graveyard, except for graves there were trees. The un-rhythm was far more dense here than any other place.The ground was charred, scorched patches were visible on the trees, and a stench of burned flesh lingered. Creed almost felt as if he had descended to hell.Agenor went into deep mulling. This deadly aura surrounding the area contained lust and blood. Not just him, everyone seemed hesi
Apaurushya Seek
They were moving smoothly until Creed's eyes landed on a random tree.The size of this tree was similar to any other tree, and there was absolutely nothing spectacular about it. Yet Creed immediately halted. Agenor and others were about to pass it, but he held Colt's shoulder to stop him as well. Agenor and Nakiya too gazed at him with suspicion, none of them said a word.Colt turned his head and saw Creed's lips kissing his index finger. His breath was erratic, and his eyes were wide open. This time, others looked at him with a deep frown as well. Creed's expressions were enough to suggest that he found something.He extended his arm and pointed towards a specific part of the tree trunk. He stepped forward and touched the surface. Soon his hand caressed the surface to confirm his own suspicion.
Apaurushya Deadlock
Signs of heatstroke were visible from her vegetative and unresponsive behavior. Surprisingly, Creed saw a sudden change in Chakra control, hinting that her chakra reserves were filling up. This made her extremely curious about the contents of the mysterious bottle. "Is she going to be okay?" Creed, after seeing her state, asked, "What is that, Big sister?!" "A stimulant… it won't heal her, but will temporarily revitalize her body!" A few seconds later, the coughing stopped, and they were finally able to get a good look on her exhausted face. They saw her eyes sunken deep inside their sockets. Blood-stained face, and hair falling off from the scalp. Both her lips cracked and bloody and the insides of her mouth have been sucked dry of every bit of moisture.

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
