Hunters: The Prequel Dwindling Numbers: Aegeus - A One Man Army
*Cling**Bang**Boom**Klang*The forest floor was fractured and bruised all over. Several trees had been felled - not by the work of nature but by forces that suckled at nature's generous breasts - and many lives had been lost. The ground was bloodied and scattered with several broken weapons. Spears, swords, axes, staffs and even strange weapons like lamps and slings decorated the forest floor grotesquely. Many headless bodies littered the ground, allowing the brave scavengers who dared encroach upon this battlefield a feast of brains and eyes."Guh" Letting out a small gurgle, another was added to the list of the dead. As the man fell, the sounds of battle ceased, leaving the survivors panting heavily. "When is the next group coming in? How far away are they?" Selina asked as she wiped the sweat off her brow. Her eyes were filled with exhaustion, and her soaked clothes told that she was at her limit; and this was no surprise for she and the others had been battling for over three
Hunters: The Prequel Aegeus: Unbreachable
An oppressive air hung over the forest as the eyes of the Nobles identified the many corpses and broken weapons that covered the ground. As far as their eyes could see, there were the bodies of the deceased. Humans and members of other races had been laid to rest in the Promised Land, never to see the light of the sun again. Even worse was that these precious bodies were being fed on by mere winged scavengers. An intruder angrily picked up a stone and flung it at a vulture. Before the creature was aware of what was happening there was a hole in its head. It fell down dead without even knowing that it had died!"Stop taking your anger out on a bird," One of the intruders tapped the furious man to calm him down. They wore the same uniform, suggesting that they were from the same company. This person looked to have a stable head over his shoulders; for his eyes had been scanning the battlefield with great caution since his arrival. "All the bodies here belong to Divine Servants. Not one

The expressions of the intruders changed when they saw the slender rod ballooning. Under their stunned gazes the formerly child-friendly stick became the size of a large pillar with a length of 50 meters!Aegeus's eyes flashed brightly underneath his mask, and he tugged on Aegis. *Crook*The large Soul Weapon groaned slightly as Aegeus pulled it up like it weighed nothing. With his overwhelming strength he pulled Aegis easily as though it weighed similarly to a thin slice of paper. Aegeus casually placed Aegis next to him, letting the Soul Weapon lie vertically.*Boom* The earth shook when Aegis kissed the ground. But it wasn't the only thing that trembled. Along with the shaking of the earth was the trembling of the hearts of those who stood opposite Aegeus."I don't think putting some distance between us was the right idea," one of the men swallowed nervously and said. His words echoed the thoughts in everyone's mind, and the one who made the prior suggestion could feel several ga
Hunters: The Prequel A Strong Opponent
Aegeus and his many clones dived straight into action. Like Olympic athletes starved of competition they were eager to impress. Each of them held a replica of Aegis, and none of them was weak. The clones numbered 30 in all, much more than the total number of intruders left. So the prior situation was reversed in an instant. Now it was the intruders who were short on numbers!*Boom*A deafening sound rang out as an intruder was besieged by three Aegeus clones and clobbered to death. He had barely recovered from the surprise when the clones targeted him.He wasn't the only one to face such an end. In less than a minute several Nobles were killed, and in a few more seconds even more joined the death list. Aegeus looked on nonchalantly; he didn't move a muscle. He left the dirty work to the clones. Soon there was only one person left. The eyes of the last survivor were filled with tears as snot run down his nose. Aegeus looked on in disgust, offended that such a weak willed person was a

Aegeus's eyes were red with fury. His expression was full of pain and reluctance. When had he been forced into such a state before? Since he was little he was taught to bow to no one - with the exception only being those who earned his respect. He was raised to be upright and noble, and to do what was right. However, he lost his way along the line and became an arrogant twat who knew nothing but stepping on the pride of others. Then he met his master; he met Mane. Mane was unlike the others Aegeus had bullied. The difference between the young Supreme and the others was simple: he was strong! That was all there was to it! Yes, Mane was intelligent. Yes, the young Supreme was able to conjure schemes and knit plots that were not reflective of his congenital age. However, that was not what pushed Mane to the other side of the wall. There were many smart people in the world. There were several intelligent people in Zandor. Surely there were some who were better gifted than the young Supre

General Siwa looked at Aegeus like she would a clown. Her lips curled into a mocking smile. She snickered briefly before saying, "You? Stop me? Are you worthy?"Her powerful aura served to remind Aegeus of his place but to her surprise, Aegeus was unmoved. It surprised her greatly, for this was the same boy who struggled to stand before her, yet now he was walking towards her with confident strides. Nothing had changed since that time; well nothing but the potion the boy had ingested. Naturally her first thought was that the potion had the ability to ignore her aura suppression."Did it somehow cancel out my natural suppression?"This thought increased General Siwa's lust towards acquiring the potion. With a potion like that she could easily earn the favour of the True Goddess and become the 1st General under her wing! Although she was one of the three whom the True Goddess sought council from, she was a living creature who yearned to grow in rank. Her rank was the highest anyone cou

A massive explosion with Aegeus at its centre destroyed much of the forest and undid all the good work of General Siwa. A cloud of dust obscured the area surrounding the seal for a short while - but only a short while. "Disperse" General Siwa's cold voice sounded out, and the obaque screen of dust and sand instantly disappeared to reveal Aegeus hunched over Aegis. The Soul Weapon throbbed continuously as it hummed dully. It seemed exhausted and overtaxed; and why wouldn't it be? This was the greatest feat it had achieved since it's birth. It had taken much to do what it did and now its energy reserves were dangerously low!"Hah...hah...hah...hah" Aegeus was sweating profusely with his eyes slightly dazed in a forced state of exhaustion. It was hard to believe that this was the same person who had effortlessly bested several Nobles but it was indeed the same person."You...you...you destroyed the conduit!" General Siwa tried her hardest to contain her emotions, but the trembling in he

"You know too much," General Siwa stated coldly before disappearing from her position. Aegeus's intuition started to scream at him once her voice sounded out. Even in his state of exhaustion he still had energy to spare. Instinctively he moved out of the way, leaping several meters away from where he initially stood. And just in time too, for like a giant meteor crashing into the ground, General Siwa's fist struck the earth and reshaped the forest floor!*Boom*With a mighty roar General Siwa's aura exploded, and the might of a powerful Ascender was revealed. Her eyes were as cold as the frozen lake of hell, and her lips were stretched into a cold smirk."You could have kept all that to yourself and lived," she told Aegeus, revealing her intentions to kill him now. It seemed that she had forgotten all about capturing him for the potion. Her hair whipped around in the wind generated from her fist and her power rioted within her. With a crunching sound she made her move, darting towards
