A Self Imposed Seal: Part II
Last Updated:
2024-10-29 19:42:56“Dracula pays his respect to the Allfather, Odin – King of Asgard,” Dracula bowed slightly in relief when he confirmed the one inside the light pillar was indeed Odin. The man was wearing a long, black robe that concealed everything – from his golden armor to his brilliant yellow hair – but his golden eye and the ravens upon his shoulders. The staff within Odin’s hand contained so much power that Dracula shook from being in such close proximity with it, an action that didn’t go unnoticed by the Allfather.
“You are extraordinary indeed. To be able to smell Gungnir’s might even when its power is hidden is an extraordinary feat.” Odin praised, his voice more soothing than it was commanding.
“You flatter me beyond my abilities, O Wise One,” Dracula maintained his humble stance, whilst using the opportunity to redirect Odin’s praise back to him.
“I know what I speak. I sense great pow

Hunters: The Prequel Mane and Sunflower
In the True Universe, many rallied behind their new King. Many picked up their arms, ready to stand behind the one whose destiny had been written in the stars long before his birth. Some had already passed through the dimensional gate. Yet the Dreamscape’s weird time laws meant that they may not necessarily arrive at the time they were supposed to. They may arrive several years into the future, a few minutes into the present, or even in the past. Yet that mattered little to the person in question – Mane – for right now he had his hands full.Mane was stooped over his study table, overlooking the designs he received just a day ago. He was clad in nothing but a pair of sleeping shorts, leaving his trunks and legs bare. In his hand was a large towel, and his hair was wet, indicating that he had just come out of the shower. Though his hair wasn’t completely dry, and though it fell carelessly upon his forehead and covered up his eyes, the water of his hair
Hunters: The Prequel Plans And Barriers
“I see you look well. Are you ready?” Ancestor Origin was the first person Mane bumped into once he was outside his room. The blind old geezer claimed that he was only taking a stroll, but which person took a troll so close to another’s room? Besides, Mane had watched the man, just like the other ancestors, leave last night after their discussions were over. Logically speaking, the only person who should have been here was the owner of the house – Ancestor Specter. But Ancestor Pier was nowhere to be found. It was highly likely that Ancestor Origin told him to make himself scarce. From the little of the old man’s personality that Mane had seen, this wasn’t beneath him.“I am,” since Ancestor Origin’s first statement was straight to the point, Mane didn’t see the need to reply with any pleasantries either.“And the others?” Mane asked. It was imperative that the other Ancestors were with him when he
Hunters: The Prequel Elemental Secret
“Your task here is done,” Ancestor Origin approached the house several meters away from the dome and spoke. His eyes were glued to the building, like a hawk watching a small rat. Yet this was no rat, for within Ancestor Origin’s eyes was a light of cautiousness that a predator wouldn’t have towards a weak prey.“I didn’t come here because of you,” a calm voice came from within the building, and a tall, dark man with handsome features walked out. Held between his lips was thin stick of wood. He wore a long, black robe that hid his entire frame and any weapons with it. And as he walked towards Ancestor Origin, he didn’t display any anxiety or nervousness that should have been born from being in the stronghold of a rival race. This man was an Ancient, and he was someone close to Mane. He was Dan!“I am giving you the chance to leave. Do not bring ruin upon yourself by staying longer than you should.” Ancestor Ori
Hunters: The Prequel The Gatekeeper
Beyond the open gate was a large giant dressed entirely in golden armor; wielding a golden spear. His eyes blazed like fiery bronze furnaces, and his feet burned with the fire of Hades. From him Mane could feel a pressure of invincibility and absolute power that he hadn’t felt from any of the Ancestors outside; not even Ancestor Origin. This giant was clad in an aura of invincibility and power so great that the space around him constantly twisted into black holes before restoring itself speedily. It was almost as if reality was going out of its way to ascertain that such power didn’t belong to the realms of the known. This giant was grand, but Mane knew he wasn’t the one he sought. For the air around him was not that of a Scholar. Mane sought those who watched the world from the shadows, hidden from the eyes of this World’s Will – and any other will for that matter.“I seek the Watchers,” Mane reiterated, his eyes glued to the path be
Hunters: The Prequel Asking A Favor
Half a year ago Mane had broken into the 9th Stage of the Heaven Realm. It took him about two weeks to consolidate his power at that stage and in less than a week, he was at the peak of the Heaven Realm. By his standards, this was a slow progression. However, when one took a look at his skills, they would understand just why it had taken someone like Mane so long to reach the peak of the Heaven Realm. For every one of his skills was at the Mastery Realm!As if that wasn’t enough, Mane hadn’t neglected any of his elements either. Not only did he take his training with the Elemental Triplets seriously, he didn’t abandon any of his focus on the elements for which he didn’t really have a tutor. And he had been rewarded handsomely for his efforts. For now, all his elements – even Wind which he had a meagre understanding of in the beginning – had reached the Mastery Level of Proficiency!And that wasn’t all. Not only did h
Hunters: The Prequel High Level Spiritualist
Mane didn’t know how long he had been here. Maybe it had been hours, days, or even weeks. Just like it was when he was walking here, he had no idea how much time had elapsed; it wasn’t like it mattered much. His Spirit kept refining Chaos at a breathtaking speed. For it had been so starved of its nourishment for such a long time that it was easily digesting what many couldn’t. Soon, Mane’s aura was at the peak of the High Spiritualist Level. It was only after a few hours of consolidating his strength at that stage, that Mane finally opened his eyes.The first thing he did was to exhale a breath of air. The gust of wind that escaped his mouth was as white as mist, and full of power. Mane had so thoroughly baptized his spirit with Chaos that even his breath was infused with it. The small gust of wind flew across the horizon, travelling at speed comparable to a comet as it whizzed past several planets in orbit and finally crashed into a stray meteor, bori
Hunters: The Prequel Dominating Power
“Activate Basileus,” Mane commanded his powers, and the Glow that had remained inactive for so long was finally reawakened. Although Mane had used it only a couple of times, as he bathed in its augmentation, he felt complete. He felt whole.Along with the activation of Basileus came an encyclopedia of knowledge concerning Leases and powers that Mane eagerly embraced. Before he was using Basileus as a boy without any true energy. Now he was using it as a peak Heaven Realmer with his eyes firmly set on the realm of Nobles.Mane’s eyes shone like a pair of bright stars, eclipsing the brilliance of the constellations that were several millions of light years away. Mane rallied the energy within his body, pushing his powers to their limits as he prepared to, for once, fight with all his abilities as one. He was going to show the true might of a Tetra Wielder.But first there was something he wanted to do. Something that he had missed dearly in the C
Hunters: The Prequel Serpent Slayer
*Bang**Bang**Bang*As Mane’s dragon soared through the sky, it made it its sole purpose to cause as much harm to the Winged Serpent as possible. The fiery dragon was like a vacuum of fire, breaking apart the scales and skin of the Winged Serpent; causing the creature born of the flames of a dragon to scream in pain and terror each time. However, the Winged Serpent wasn’t going down without a fight. After the first few clashes it understood that the apparition it was facing wasn’t nearly as dangerous as the true dragons it had encountered before. And it was emboldened by it. It weathered the storm of attacks that came its way whilst delivering powerful counters of its own.Unfortunately, it was facing a fiery contraption, and its attacks were merely fuel to the greedy Chaotic sentiments that devoured its Edict whole and refined it for its use. The fiery dragon crushed into the Winged Serpent repeatedly, reducing the formerly majestic an

“This…is amazing,” Mane’s eyes widened as he took in the sight before him.The young Supreme was seated on Roxanne. The beautiful dark horse had been granted the power of flight by Crystal who had no trouble casting a flight Lease on the lovely beast. While this was not a permanent condition, it would last hours, and that was thanks to Crystal’s expert command over Chaos. Any other person would have been able to cast this Lease for just under a few minutes. Mane was no exception to this. Even if his power was not sealed, he would not be able to use this Lease to liberally. If this Lease was that practical, it would have been popularized.Next to him, Professors Stern and Stanley, and Dean Desmond had smile plastered on their faces as they watched the Supreme’s gobsmacked reaction to the impressive sight before him. Behind the professors were the students, both old and new. While the older students, Kahn, Frost, Bel, and Maia were floating on their own, the new students had to be envel
Hunters: The Prequel Brothers Reunited
“What a brilliant welcome,” Poseidon slowly moved towards the teenage looking Zeus and Atlas with a broad smile on his face.The god of the waves floated elegantly upon a bident, his eyes briefly scanning Atlas before finding his brother’s immature figure.“You have grown weak, brother,” Poseidon chuckled as he slowly flew towards his brother.Atlas, who had been on guard since Poseidon’s appearance, frowned upon seeing the god of the waves getting closer to a much weaker Zeus. His figure flashed as he appeared before Zeus, shielding him from the gaze of his own blood brother. “You have fallen low brother. Now, you require the protection of a titan? Hilarious.” Poseidon mocked as he locked eyes with the delicate looking Atlas. “Of course I have fallen. Not only was I betrayed by my own son, but I also almost died. What did you expect will happen when one who is considered as part of the big three of Olympus approaches a fallen god?” Zeus did not mind his brother’s comments.Instead

Days passed and soon it was time for Mane to leave the planet of the Celestial Emperor. Well, he wasn’t the only one leaving. It was time for the professors to return to their academies with their students – both old and new. In front of the portal that could transport them back to their academies, Mane stood with his friends as they bid each other goodbye. Well, something close to that at least. To give them some privacy, the other professors had gone on ahead with the students, standing a few tens of meters away from the Silver Wolves.“Our great Supreme, our captain and leader, the Unbended is finally leaving us. Whatever are we to do?” Abe waved his hands theatrically as he feigned sadness and pain.His words caused Selina and the twins to snicker. Only Aegeus snorted before shooting Abe a deathly stare. As for Mane, he could only smile wryly at Abe’s comments. He didn’t know when it had started since he had been away for so long in the Dreamscape, but Abe had become more easy goi
Hunters: The Prequel Way Forward
It took a week for Godking to complete its assignment and soon, Mane was back on Planet Celestial. Walking through the streets of the capital, he noticed that he was receiving a lot of stares. While it wasn’t unusual for people to stare at him given his appearance and his ethereal aura, that was only on Zandor. One could argue that it was because he didn’t look like a Celestial, but that was not accurate either. Since Celestials opened their homes to others who craved entry into the God Academies, they had welcomed several different species into their home world. Mane wasn’t not out of place in this new era, meaning there were definitely staring for another reason.“You have become very popular, young Supreme,” Professor Stern who was walking next to Mane chuckled and said.“Hahaha! The recordings that were taken of you should have spread everywhere by now. Even those who were unable to attend the event know who you are!” Professor Stanley laughed heartily while striking the young Sup

“You are still eating, even after all that happened?” Hildegarde frowned and said.She was looking at the boy who had forcefully taken her with him when he was returning to his realm with a disapproving gaze. They had escaped that world that had been prepared as his burial place. As though it had never happened, they had returned to the exact spot he had been teleported from – the kitchen. Hildegarde was confused about his current reaction.Seeing him biting onto his tuna sandwich caused her eyebrows to lift in frustration. It was the very same meal that Mane had made and had barely taken a bite of when he was transported to another world. And yes, that was not a dream; it had really happened. She couldn’t understand how the Supreme could be so calm after coming out of a life-or-death situation.“What would you have me do then? Toss it into the trashcan? That would be a waste of food.” Mane answered nonchalantly as he wiped some fish from his cheek.“That…” Hildegarde searched for wor

There were many things that could not be understood in this world, regardless of the amount of logic that one’s mind could process at any given moment, there were things that befuddled even the most brilliant minds. One of such brilliant minds – no, two of these – was staring into the sky full of stars with a torn expression on his face. This man – nay, this god – was the trickster and master shapeshifter, Loki. But he wasn’t alone.“What are you thinking about?”“Many things.”“The great Loki has more than one troubling issue? This is interesting. Odin would have laughed at the absurdity of such a statement; but looking at your expression, it seems to be true.”“It is arrogance to assume that one can solve all one’s problems with one’s mind alone. Why do you think I sought you?”“Isn’t it greater arrogance to presume that two would be enough?”“But its not just two is it? One is the mind of Odin and the other is the mind that Odin sought.”“You say you aren’t arrogant, but you do not

He moved quickly, his feet gliding across the floor soundlessly as he reached the Earth Realmer’s unguarded back. He opened his mouth and spat out a dagger, sending it flying towards the neck of his enemy. Before he was spotted by one of the Profound Realmers, his dagger had already pierced the Earth Realmer’s neck, and the latter was grasping at his neck furiously, almost like he could seal the hole and return his blood to his body by doing so.“Intru-“*Puchi*Dan swiftly waved his hands, changing the direction of his dagger and sending it flying into the neck of the Profound Realmer who had tried to sell him out. As he did so he was already sweeping his foot towards the abdomen of another enemy.*Boom*The stunned guard was sent flying into the wall and coughing up blood before he could fully understand what was going on. By this time, the last guard had finally caught up. He dashed towards Dan quickly, drawing his sword in the process. Without any hesitation he swung his blade at

“There really is no one impressive here,” Dragon King Bast stated as his sword sliced through a Noble as easily as cutting through tofu.“I knew he said he will make sure this place is left almost unguarded, but this is incredible,” Captain Hafiz muttered as he watched the disciplined legion of warriors beelining into their path.While he spoke calmly, his rioting aura and the violence being radiated in his eyes showed his eagerness for war. He was not the only one expressing such deathly intent. Every member of the Sun Squad was ready to go wild, their eyes gleaming just as dangerously as their captain.“Why are you people talking so much. Let’s fight!” Monkey King Hanuman roared out and jumped towards the approaching legion.While the others were a bit taken aback that there were none of the Skies here to face them, Monkey King Hanuman didn’t care about that. Last he remembered, several of the Skies had died on his planet, leaving only the strongest behind. Since Loki said he would
Hunters: The Prequel Breakout!
Back in the Dreamscape Universe, there was a war raging. While it wasn’t overt, citizens in every world could feel that the drums of war had been brought out. They had not been embroiled in chaos yet, but they knew that soon the drum beaters will strike down, announcing the start of another war, and this world would fall into disorder again.The one who stood at the centre of this war were preparing in their own right. Within the camp of ‘good’, Loki, Ananse, and Zica, gathered allies. So far they had attracted the likes of the Barbarian Primogenitor, Red Rose, and some of the Barbarian Ancestors. Destiny and Pathfinder were here along with a few other unknown ancestors. As if that wasn’t enough, the Barbarian Lord, Magma, and his Flames, had also escaped the confines of their home to join this war. They weren’t the only ones that had stepped up though. The Elementals had not hesitated to send their best as well. Ancestor Spector had arrived with a few other ancestors from Amalgamatio
