“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
*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
”There are three Watchers; each with a distinct personality. There is the Watcher who sees, the one who hears and the one who schemes. Pray you never fall victim to the one who schemes.” – The Allfather Odin.There were about 8 light pillars. And each was giving out a strong aura. As if that wasn’t enough, Mane could sense from the auras of those in the pillars that not only were they powerful, they were of different races.“The Watchers,” Mane gritted his teeth in rage. He had asked for a favor, but what he received was no favor.How was this them doing him a favor? The accumulated Chaos had been used up, and there was no need to fight any further. He could finally break into the Nobility Realm. But he had underestimated the Watchers. How could they grant him so many favors for free? The first beast Mane faced, the Winged Serpent, was his payment for asking for a favor in the first place. As for these eight, they wer
The most dangerous opponents on a battlefield weren’t mindless beasts or combat freaks. There were actually two groups of people to fear. The second most fearsome bunch a person could come into contact with were those who could think and reason; those who could analyse their opponent’s strength and understood their own weaknesses. These people were the second most dangerous opponents one could face. And that was what Mane was dealing with now. As for the first, we’d get to that in a bit. For now we refocus our attentions on the young Supreme.“Augendae: Spirit Scan” Mane muttered, and proceeded to check out his enemies.“So we only have to kill him?” the first of the seven was a being as tall as two Celestials put together. He was about 4 to 5 meters in height, and had arms and legs are thick as tree trunks. He was bald, with two horns protruding from both sides of his cheeks. His eyes were devilish grey, and in his neck was a
In a fight, the person who struck first was always the person at a risk. Although striking first handed you the momentum, it was still risky for it could so easily be used against you – your enthusiasm. But when a person was hit first and countered spectacularly, all the momentum swung back in his or her favor. And when such a person struck, there was a mental shackle that prevented the others that remained from fully accessing their power. This scenario perfectly embodied such a situation. The Mini Giant struck first and failed. And not only had he failed, he had failed so spectacularly that the others were unsure of what to do. And Mane wasn’t going to give them time to. He had the momentum now, and his blood that boiled in rage and chaos was eager to see the blood of others spilled.Mane made the first move. Bending his knees, he gathered power into his legs and pushed forwards, leaving a huge hole on the floor of the platform.*Boom*Mane streake
“I am leaving,” the Heavenly Pistol Shrimp suddenly stated and turned to walk towards the edge of the platform, to the place where the light had delivered him when he first arrived. Although there was a vast distance between the two points – the centre where they fought and the edge he sought to reach – it wouldn’t be difficult for an Ascender like him to reach it in mere seconds.“And how do you plan on doing that?” the White Fox had a scowl on her face as she spoke. Not only did they not know what this place was, they had no idea how they got here, what that strange light that had brought them here was, or how to leave. They had no information whatsoever.“I don’t know. But I will figure something out soon enough.” The Heavenly Pistol Shrimp replied as he left. He looked like he wasn’t going to change his decision. This place was surrounded by several planets and countless stars. It was surely within t
Out of the rapturous energy, a figure came flying out, unable to handle the power of the one he struck. This person was sent flying into the barrier above. And crushed into the powerful dome with a deafening boom.“Did he just push back a Mini Giant?” the Human Spiritualist asked in surprise. For the one who had been pushed back was indeed the Mini Giant!“He smartly deflected the attack of the brute by focusing on hitting the handle of his axe. That way he was able to use the power of the idiot to his advantage. The Young Supreme basically used the Mini Giant’s strength against him.” The Slender Cat was no Scholar, but his superior eyesight as a member of his race came into play here. For he saw everything that happened. At the last moment before the clash, Mane had employed a technique.“He isn’t just strong, but smart as well,” The White Fox stated, and the others nodded their heads.“Truly a brute
*Vroom*Along with the sound of a premium grade engine came a change that stunned the three who were left alive – the Slender Cat, the White Fox, and the Human Scholar. For what they were seeing was beyond anything they had ever seen before.“Yes. Tap into your true power.” Back in Mane’s mindscape Cronos had a huge smirk on as he observed the happenings of Mane’s body. He didn’t know how Mane had awakened this Glow, for it was so obsolete that from Zeus’s generation that none had awakened it. And that was because they had abandoned the way of Titans. In fact it was more repulsive to them than it was shunned. And the fact that Mane had awakened it meant that he was so clueless about his heritage that he felt no repulsion to the power of the Titans. For no Glow would awaken when it felt rejected.“What is that?” the Human Scholar thought to herself. Although she was stunned, she was still chanting her Lease. S
The White Fox was swift. Although it was larger than both Mane and the Slender Cat, its movement speed wasn’t at all inferior to Mane’s. Once it had made up its mind to attack and moved, it didn’t take it even a second to reach Mane. Her eyes gleamed coldly as the armor around her paws shifted slightly and coated her powerful claws, sharpening them even further. Once her preparations were completed, she slapped her paw towards Mane with a mighty strike.Mane could feel the powerful wind hitting his face even before the strike landed. The White Fox was terrifyingly fast. And in no time her paw was right before his face. Those claws were as large as the width of his neck, and he knew that although his titan skin was difficult to breach, the pain from the impact could be disastrous. Besides, he could be sent flying into the barrier from the impact, and just like he had done with the others, he could be on the receiving end of the barrier’s punishment. So
“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
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. The Elementals had not hesitated to send their best as well. Ancestor Spector had arrived with a few other ancestors from Amalgamatio
