Black space. What is Black Space?The Black Space was the residence of the villagers along the south beach. The locals were so closed off and trusted no one, including the king. Ibrahim left them alone because they were so adamant to protect their own traditional nonsense. “Am I missing something here?” Ajiad was quite sure why they reacted that way. “My king?” He nudged Ibrahim’s shoulder.“Remember that time one of the locals took Aidan out of town during his visit time after the wolf ambushed them?” Yusuff asked. Hisoka smelled danger, his smile widened and became creepier. “Yes?” Ajiad nodded.“They had a run-in with some mercenary shit and later the T-Vir gang.”“You mean, was that the shoot-out in the small town?”“Yup, we couldn’t account for the sniper who took out one of the T-Vir. Sheriff Akhbar speculated that the sniper was from another outer threat and the man who shot some locals worked for T-Vir.” Ibrahim added.“I can smell bullshit from far away,” Hisoka squinted
“I got the den in sight,” Smiley murmured through the wireless walkie-talkie.Currently, they are in a desolate area, the farm. The farm was set amid rolling hills, away from civilization near the Woodland Forest. Smiley had hunkered along the crest of one, training his binoculars at the structure in question.He and Black entered the location and found their own location to observe their target. The uneven ground and short hike were beneficial in keeping them sharp. Their sense became sharper as they descended into the enemy territory. And both of them had agreed to split their area of coverage.Black covered the outside farm, while Smiley was in charge of the hidden den that camouflaged with the surrounding. There’s another den next to the existing den that was surrounded by the cow all around. There were zero guards stationed from the outside layer leading to the den, probably because this place was so desolated from civilization and most people avoided this place. Next to this d
Panic gripped the entire place as everyone sheltered themselves and listened to the scuffles breaking out around them.The supposedly peaceful event was ruined with just one blow. The ground was breaking, the chairs and desks were flipping over and the soldiers were dispatched to control the chaotic situation. Amid the chaos, the royal family of wolves gathered in one place and was escorted out of the place.“Oh hello, there.”Yet, were stopped by the small body of the person that they knew too much.“Shadow!!! Where did you hide my fiancee?” Finn had lost his cool as soon as he learned that his fiancee was nowhere to be found right before the ceremony.Shadow drummed her finger on her cheek, acting cheeky. “Ah, you mean Crown Princess Lily? She is not your fiancee anymore.” She said nonchalantly, taking one step ahead.“Don– don’t come any further.”“Stop– stop!”“Don’t move.”The other royals were screaming in poor terror. On their faces, the prominent eyebags were colored undernea
It was already eight p.m and the wedding would start no later than nine. And here, Lily was still screaming her head off because she thought her wedding dress was not pretty enough.“Err, Your Holiness, please calm down the crown princess. We implore you. The wedding will begin soon, and here we have no progress. We still need to fix her makeup to cover up the tear stain.” One of the professional makeup maids hesitantly pleaded to Shadow who had obviously wanted nothing to do with the wailing bride. A few maids around Lily were seen nodding their heads in desperation.They should have arrived at the venue by now, yet, here they were, waiting for the bride to calm down.Shadow glanced at the overly eager makeup maids, hence, the small sigh was inevitable. They were looking at Shadow as if she was the problem solver – which wasn’t far-fetched – considering that she had the knack to slowly talk others into agreeing on anything. The silver lining was, she was like their angel.“Lily…”Li
Tap! All of them landed quietly on the third-floor balcony, next to the master room. Although they were so quiet, it didn’t mean all of them were internally loud. Shadow was so drained. These people had found loopholes in their mind-reading ability. Unlike her who could transmit her thoughts to them or talk telepathically freely, these people were quite lacking. But, they found a better way to converse silently. Talking internally to themselves. By talking to themselves, every one among them could read their thoughts and followed the exact procedure and was so excited about it. They were so smart to a fault, making Shadow want to murder them. Even so, no one could penetrate her mind and thoughts simply because she experienced death thousands of times. She legit died and was brought to life each time. ‘Question. Do we have to clean our butt or should we simply let the water run it just like that?’ Was the thought of Crazy Hyena and he allowed them to listen to his monologue.
Shadow was eyeing them full of love. Their eagerness reflected the innocence in their eyes. The Hyenas were prepared to enter the space that was created by Orange.Orange’s power was extremely unique. Storytelling, and art manipulation. There were only three people that inherited this power. Each represents the three worlds. Someone named Fariz, who by chance, was Teal’s boyfriend. He was from the Upperworld. The second person was Orange Bunny, representing the Underworld. Last but not least, Wan, from the wingman's clan, was from The Unknown.Different places carried different strengths, however. Fariz was far weaker than Orange but stronger by the average of the Upperworld. Orange Bunny was also strong but Wan was the strongest.It was all because of the mana stones that were stored everywhere in The Unknown. The strength of each person was defined by the accessibility of the mana stones or the mana air in general.The Upperworld had the least mana, while the Underworld lived close
“What– what do you want from me?” His body was trembling, filled with unexplainable fear.If she was from a lion tribe, he knew who she was. The lion tribe was massive by nature. Their height easily exceeded 1.8 meters and above. However, there’s one person who received the blessing from The Unknown and became one of the adopted children of the royal family. She was also extremely small for the lion tribe. That’s probably the main reason why they pampered her so much. And as far as he knew, the girl was extremely young yet talented enough to sweep the storm in The Unknown. Also, used to be the ruler of the Underworld.Shadow was deeply impressed with this guard’s knowledge. It also meant that they had dug a background check on her. She felt unpleasant for unknown reasons even though it was a necessary step to understand the enemy's move.Suddenly, this person wasn’t interesting enough to be played with. “I’m done with you.”Snap!The guard fell unconscious as the rest and Shadow en
Tap!“Hey!” Shadow nodded at Orange who was already nearly done with the last touch-up. “Are you done?” She asked.“Almost.”A distinctive scream was located in the inner garden just on the other side where they were. Finn’s room was just next to the inner garden. It is called the Rose Garden where countless colors of roses were planted everywhere. Ironically, the roses had already been completely annihilated by the monkeys.Countless spells were cast to kill the monkeys. Normally, the monkeys were not able to dodge any attack cast by them. Unfortunately for them, all of them were professional animal soldiers that were trained personally by Shadow. All of them were good at fighting, but mostly, they were so great at dodging and running away.So, after achieving their objective, the monkeys instantly ran away to their designated place. But, they would not stay in one place fearing that the enemy could smell them, instead, after gathering at one place, the monkeys would travel to th
Black and Teal landed at the training ground where Shadow was. Their clean attire fluttered around, eyes focused on Shadoe who was harassing her sparring partners which consisted of Albert, Firash, Aidan, Dhia, and also Musa. Watching those people's haggard faces and tattered clothes, Teal covered her mouth as a nostalgic feeling crept under her skin. It was not a great experience. Although, it increased her prowess, power, ability to wield her GIFT, and strength. Still, it wasn’t a pleasant experience knowing how brutal Shadow could be. “I think we need to rescue them.” “Should we?”Black mumbled while stroking her chin while Teal shivered at the thought alone. Then, both of them wavered their hands as those people took notice of them and pleaded with their eyes.“Should we?”“... we should, should we?”Black asked cunningly and Teal sighed in resignation. If they don't save them, they might hit their limit soon. In normal circumstances, it would be ideal, however, not right now.
“Hmmm… are those the ships that we need to destroy?” “Apparently so, Blue.”“Seriously?”“Yup, yup.”“... that thing is gigantic. What the…” “Fu fu fu. Believe me, I thought so too, Blue.”Blue and Pink were standing right in front of the naval ship. Blue was standing on top of the ice he created while Pink was flying, fluttering her flower’s wings behind her back.They were in the middle of the sea with nothing in it. They were sure that the mermen would be ambushing. They expected it to a certain extent, however… what they didn’t expect was the oblivious approach.The naval ships filled with countless beastmen, no. hundreds of confused beastmen. Both Pink and Blue didn’t smell particularly strong.Blue seemed delighted but Pink was quite vexed. “Did we get the weakest link?” She flipped open her paper fan and fanned it harder.“I don’t know. Feels like I am in heaven.”Pink gnashed her teeth and glared at her partner.“What?” Blue acted innocent.“You and your stupid attitude.” S
“Look. there’s an ass picture of the supposed dragon lord.” Green mumbled next to White.“I can see that, Green.” White tried to control her lips from vomiting.“Just alerting you.”“Thank you.”Green and White were disguising themselves as a wizard and a witch. Wands at each hand.“Young man,” a soft touch was placed on Green.Green reflexly turned his head at the old lady next to him. His green eyes dilated a mere second before a sweet smile emerged. “Yes, beautiful lady?” “Ho ho ho,” the old lady that looked not more than 70 years old radiantly chuckled. “How sweet you are.” White looked away, acting like Green and she wasn’t related. The old lady might appear 70, but she knew better, that the old lady was centuries old.“Do you know what is the meaning behind this painting?”Green stroked his chin, pondering at the ass painting – again, the supposed dragon lord. He wasn’t sure what to say. It was literally the buttcrack of Ferdinand. How’d he know? The description was literall
Bzzzzzzt~The sharp sound of electricity traveled across the metal factory.Unlike Grey and Brown, their destination was a metal factory. Thanks to kind-hearted Grey, they changed their destination. It was the closest and it was on the ground.Everyone knew Orange didn’t do well underground due to old trauma. Hence why Grey decided to give in. As always. Also, they all knew that Orange was Grey’s favorite. Of course, Grey denied the claim and the issue died there. As usual.They strolled inside as if they were visiting the factory, not invading. Meanwhile, the enemies were panicking.“Abad’s been hit. There’s someone out here–” The voice that was shouting through the radio before cutting out. Huh? The fuck? Abad’s hurt?“Captain Ayham, the left side is clear,” Barqi said right after that. “We’re moving, heading to the main pathway.” Ayham gritted his teeth.He was in the controller room. CCTV captured the activities inside the factory. However, the place where the enemies were situ
Tap! Both of them landed right in the middle of the nothingness. It was barren. Sand, rock, and cactus. That’s all.It was a freaking desert.“This is the right place.” Brown adjusted his mask.Grey raised his arm into the air and pulled out his middle finger and felt the air.“Why must that one?” Brown was tired of his antics.“As long as I can do my work,” retorted Grey nonchalantly. “What about your situation?” Slightly turned his head at Brown.“I have a clear vision.” Brown closed his eyes, feeling the movement underneath. “How many?” He tilted his head. Something was wrong. The weather felt wrong for some reason. The density of air was different than usual.“Approximately 50 beastmen on each floor. I could be wrong.”“And how many floors do they have?” He opened his eyes and stared at the sky.“Approximately… three.” Grey counted the clouds in the air. “Three? Are you sure?” Brown tilted his head and set his jaw, feeling the vibration even the smallest one. “Wait a minute!
“Wild Bunny, gather!” Black clapped her hands, calling the rest of the restless members.“What are we? Fucking school kids?” Orange murmured silently, his steps still trudging toward Black.“Shut your stinky mouth.” Brown clicked his tongue.“What a fool.” White shook her head.“You’re the last thing I want to hear.” Teal groaned.“We ain’t fighting.” Pink pushed both their heads at once while walking past them.The rest of them were laughing inwardly.Once they gathered, Black placed a transparent bowl with numerous folded papers in it. Her black eyes latched on each one of them, wriggled her brows petulantly.“As usual, we’ll choose our area the Old Way.”“Ugh! I hate it.” Blue murmured amongst them. The voice filled with annoyance.“We must use this method to ensure fairness, Blue Bunny.” Blue rolled his eyes shut and slumped his head on Pink’s shoulder.“I’ll pick the paper for us.” Pink raised her hand.“Me… will do.” White raised her hand as well.Gold nodded at Black.“Alright
Flashback! “Hey! Do you want to hear a secret?” Shadow asked right after her wedding took place.All the Underworld family gathered around. A secret? Just you, and the rest of us? Ehe., hehehe. Oops. sorry that had to come out. Go on.” Brown and Orange clasped their hands in full happiness.“What is it?” Black swallowed hard. “Don’t tell me…”“Something is wrong.” Captain from Mandrill Monkey arched his brow in anticipation.“I also can feel it in my dick.” Daddy from Mandrill Monkey stroked his chin.“God damn it, Daddy.” “I am only telling the truth. My dick can feel it.” He had no remorse, no shame.“Please don’t talk about that in the open, I guess?”“About what? Dick? Why? Because we have ladies here?”“Yes, and it is inappropriate.”“Why? They can talk about their vajayjay if they want to.”“Damn it, Daddy! Stop it!” Captain clasped his mouth and dragged him away.The rest of the Mandrill Monkeys were cackling as if there was no tomorrow. “After analyzing the movement of the
“Sniff… really?” Phantom rubbed his nose against Shadow’s neck.“Yes. I can’t live without you. I swear.” She tried to appear convincing.“But will you die?” He was adamant about Shadow’s life.Why wouldn’t he? He was there when Shadow was at the bottom. He was there when she was suffering. He was there when she died hundreds of times. He could do nothing but watch her from afar. He had no physical body nor the capability to protect her. He was a mere artificial intelligence living in the system. “Phantom… I will cease to exist following the promise of the previous lord. Abah. I can’t die before that. My body has been programmed to do so.”It was her sad life. Cease to exist. She would never experience death like others. She would cease to exist when the time was calling. Her death would be a mysterious death. A sudden death. Abah had promised her up to 1000 years old. She knew her body couldn’t hold that long. According to her calculation, she had 800 years more to go. Plus and min
“Have you improvised their ID card or something?”Shadow turned her head at her desk. Phantom was seen sitting on top of his folders, crossed legs, and caned his chin with his hand. He was grinning wide.“You’re here?” Shadow rested her head on the visitor chair in front of her desk.Phantom’s foot was wagging back and forth, right in front of Shadow. Yet, the girl said nothing to reprimand him. She was just extremely.Phantom waved his hand, some sort of greeting or whatever.“No, the upgraded version. As soon as the card seeped into him, his whole existence was inside the system.” She answered.“When did you develop the new version?” It piqued Phantom’s interest.Shadow merely scoffed and shut her eyes. “Mind checking how well the information settles in?” She meant all the information regarding Amari’s body.It felt like time stopped momentarily. Phantom lost his smile. The usual playful vibe was killed. Phantom killed it. Anger gradually flamed inside his eyes.“Whatever you mean
