Confused, Yet Very Much In Love

2020-12-03 20:14:45"I presume you found what you were searching for?"
Back in the grand hall of the main building of the House of Diaz, Luis sat facing the Romano twins. His eyes were glued onto them as he asked his question. Well, not them really. His eyes were locked onto only one person- Rosa.
Kahn looked on with a wry smile as he realised that Luis wasn't paying him any heed. He coughed lightly to grab the older man's attention and said.
"Yes we did. Thank you very much for your help, Young Master Luis. We greatly appreciate your generosity."
Luis nodded in acknowledgement of Kahn's words, still not turning his eyes away from Rosa. He was clearly expecting her to say something. Kahn lightly jabbed Rosa with his elbow, a clear signal informing her to convey her thanks. Luis did not care about him. All he cared about was whether Rosa enjoyed her stay. Kahn knew this all too well.
"We do appreciat

On a lonely road a luxurious carriage was making its way back home. The horses were big and stout, their strong hooves producing the most pleasing of sounds as they gently hit against the road surface. The carriage driver had the reins beside him, proof that he had enough trust in his horses. And why not, for who knew them better than him. They were more than capable of finding the way back on their own. His presence was for security measures. His skills of navigation only came in handy when they faced an ambush, and required a quick getaway. But for now, his interest was on scanning their path for any inconsistences and threats."So, what did you talk about?" Rosa asked Kahn. She had moved from her end of the carriage to his. Her encroachment of his personal space portrayed just how curious she was. And why wouldn't she be? Upon returning from the washroom she found out that the atmosphere had changed. Luis had a very happy smile on his face and seemed way frie

"What a beautiful day it is. It is a waste spending it in this classroom."Mane had all his attention outside, fully indulging in the beauty of nature and totally ignoring his class teacher. And right he was, for it was indeed a beautiful day. The sun was up yet its usual scorching heat was nowhere to be found. For such an imposing heavenly body, it sure was silent today. The excited chirps of little birds filled the area outside. These were sounds that wouldn't be heard by any normal person in the classroom. Yet Mane wasn't a normal person was he? His heightened senses made it possible for him to listen to the glorious symphony being created by the hummingbirds that were flying freely just outside the window.The bright blue sky called to him, asking him to come outside and take shelter under it. Oh, how he would have loved to go outside. Unfortunately, he could not."It is a beautiful day indeed. Just thinking about ha

The voice of the 6th was filled with shock. So loud was his baritone voice that he startled Mane, causing the little boy to shake harshly in his seat. Abelard noticed Mane's weird behavior. So did the twins."What's wrong? Have you heard of it before?"Mane did not give Abe a reply. His intelligent colleague realised that the captain was lost in his thoughts. He smartly kept mute as he waited for Mane to reorient himself."Is it your world 6th?"Back in the mind space, Mane had fully manifested himself. This meant he would not be attentive to anything that happened outside his body. Normally he wouldn't take such a risk in public. However, he had enough faith in his team members. Their strength was more than enough to deal with any threat that came their way- at least on this planet."Why are you not answering?"Mane focused all his attention on the 6th mount

"I agree. All resources are vital, but the most important is the human resource. Unfortunately, our competitors thought so as well." The 7th was still going on with his story.Mane had a frown on his face. Any person of average intelligence should be able to tell how the story will end. It was obvious that the two brothers had broken the balance of power. They may have been weak since they were kids, but the threat of their potential was enough for them to be wiped out."As I said earlier, Kreech had several resources. Many predictions concluded that these resources were going to last for a very long time. The only unpredictable resource was the human resource. There was no way one could predict the kind of talents that would be born to a family. Usually, the closer a person is to the main family, the stronger their talent. For instance, the son of the Main Family's Head would be expected to be born with far greater talent than the son of a

"Looks like you have to go back. Your friends are calling for you". Mane did not have time to respond when he found himself back in the classroom."I can't believe that I was expelled from my own mind space" Mane said bitterly upon realizing where he was. He turned to look at the culprit, the one responsible for his expulsion. Jake was still rocking the blonde haired boy back and forth, his innocent eyes filled with impatience."You're finally awake. I've been calling you for more than a five minutes." Jake pouted in annoyance.Mane's brows twitched at his words. He looked at Abe who was seated with a calm expression. The other boy smiled in bitterness as if to say there was nothing he could do. Abe obviously had no idea what had happened to Mane. But he was willing to wait patiently until Mane recollected himself. Unfortunately, the twins did not have that kind of patience. Mane sighed in resignation when he saw Abe's b

There are many prosperous towns and cities in the Western Empire. Many that had the protection of the Empire. The kingdoms that served under the empire performed their duties well. There may be occasional fallouts here and there, but they served their people well. Though most warred against each other, under the pressure of looking at the bigger picture, those differences were put aside.The Western Empire was just like every other empire, and every other kingdom. Where there were thriving cities, there would be failing ones. It was but a law of life- the law of balance. One would not find the rich without locating the poor. One would not find the strong without the weak. For it is because there are poor people that one can tell who the rich are. The strong are singled out because the weak are there to make their strength stand out. Over the past few years, many of the kingdoms had signed peace treaties. Many had become allies instead of enemies. Many who swore

*BAM*Bits of stone were sent flying into the air as a figure was launched onto the formerly grass-filled platform. His hair was a mess, and his eyes hazy. He had clearly not regained his composure yet. When his eyes finally stopped spinning, he looked to the cause of his misery. Golden hair and blue eyes. The instigator was his captain Mane, but he wasn't the only victim. Across the mock battlefield were four other figures, each thrown aside haphazardly. One of them was half buried in the ground, his mouth wide open with saliva just pouring out. He was clearly unconscious. Another, who looked just like the one before was embedded in a tree that faced the east, his eyes cloudy and disoriented. One didn't need a physician to tell him that he was out cold as well. The last male had most of his attire torn apart, his undergarments being displayed to the world. His looks were difficult to make out since he was buried into the ground face first. The only female in th

Frederick was just asking a question- an innocent question within which held no malice. But to Abe, to answer that simple question was to relieve the memories of a once forgotten nightmare. Years ago, the twins and Abe had been 'invited' to this training ground. They had suffered under the merciless training of their captain for two years. They hadn't been here for a year. Yet Abe still remembered the pain of the training. He shivered at the thought of having to go through it again. His brave words about catching up with Mane miles away from his mind."Do we get to be the trainers this time?" John asked in an excited manner. The little kid didn't have Abe's perception. He was yet to realise that there was no way Mane would bring them here as the trainers. After all, they were all here to train- Mane included. The only reason the blue eyed boy usually took on the role of the trainer was because none of them posed a challenge to him- individually.

“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

“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

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.
