Hunters: The Prequel I Am Mane Harbinger: XIX
While the Origin King had heard of instances where it took an entire battalion’s worth of energy to seal the strength of some gods, Mane was no god. And though he had been weakened greatly, his power should have been more than enough to hold down Mane’s power and still come to his aid. After all, though he sensed a powerful Wielding Manual from Mane’s spirit, the boy wasn’t strong enough to go against him. But then again, Mane wasn’t the only one the Origin King had to be worried about. For there was another.“Cronos,” the Origin King frowned as he skipped past a few bullets conjured by Crystal.Cronos – a name that caused as much dread as Odin’s popped into his mind as the Origin King explored the limits of his movement techniques without the power of space. He hadn’t forgotten that for some reason Cronos was stuck in there with the boy. And though he had been able to trap the Selfish Titan King in his illusion as well, it took twice the amount of energy he used on Mane to achieve su

“In my first few years as king of the titans I had to endure a number of challenges,” Cronos’s deep voice carried the power of his past and stabilized the trembling of Mane’s Soul Scape. And though the Supreme had bowed his head once again, Cronos knew that he was listening. “The toughest ones came from my father’s brothers. In one of such duels I lost my eye. And in another, I lost my mind. Then came the final one, where I lost my heart.” As Cronos spoke his features that had been hidden all this while were exposed to Mane. And when the young Supreme lifted his head upon sensing the changes around him, he was shaken to his core, much like his own Soul Scape. For in front of him wasn’t the perfect image he had sculpted in his mind in the leisurely minutes of the day and the aimless ones of the night. Before him was a face scarred by the trials of life and a heart that wasn’t a heart. And that was because the Cronos Mane saw was the Cronos he didn’t think he would ever see. Eyes tha

Ancestor Origin displayed speed unbefitting of an Elemental, covering several hundreds of meters in less than a second. But it wasn’t without cost. Cracks appeared on the surface of his skin as Edict leaked out furiously like a dysfunctional pipe. His energy was stable yet unstable. For it felt as though the Origin King was sacrificing this body to achieve his goal: getting another, better body!Crystal’s eyes were as red as the blood that run through her veins. The Chaos she controlled had grown so thin that the Chaos Shield that she was drawing her power from was flickering unstably around her. But beyond the redness that coated her pupils and the darkness that threatened to drown her in was a steely resolve that was unreflective of a mere servant. Her dedication could be seen in her heart, revealed by the emotions in her eyes. For the window to her soul had illuminated the path so clear that even the crimson of blood couldn’t hide the truth beneath.And it was this dedication that

While others rushed to Amalgamation for different reasons, the turmoil of the battlefield hadn’t ceased. “Are you crazy?!” Ancestor Origin screamed in fear as he was sent flying by a power typhoon so vast that the one who ruled over space and time questioned his own ability.It was only after he had crossed the hundred meter threshold that he came to a stop. With eyes besot by wind and sand the Origin King struggled to keep his eyes open. With a small grimace he mumbled“You are an Eternal”Crystal’s declaration of Eternal Damnation and the chant that led to it clearly stated her race. And realization of this caused the Origin King’s frown to transform into a cheerful smirk. For though he had remained in the background all these years, he knew who Eternals were. And he knew that they were servants to no one. They made sacrifices for no one – not even for themselves. They only served one person“The Supreme”Ancestor Origin’s eyes flashed with understanding and his greed towards retri

Crystal sped towards the Origin King with her cold gaze fixed on him. She waved her hands before her in circles and ordered Chaos to do her dirty work. And it did oblige.*Twirp*A large tree root sprouted from the ground and threatened to wind itself around the Origin King, prompting the latter to hastily call upon the winds of change and blast his way out of the encampment.“Hah!”With a strong bellow Ancestor Origin summoned several wind blades, each as large as a truck, and tore his way out of the tree root. Although the tree was sturdy, it couldn’t withstand this damage and collapsed.Ancestor Origin’s eyes were filled with dread, but even greater than that dread was a fury that was birthed from his helplessness. He was stronger than the woman who besieged him, but he could only retreat under her pressure. And this infuriated him. However, even in his fury he could still see clearly. His opponent was making it difficult for him to escape. He hadn’t even found an opening to make h
Hunters: The Prequel I Am Mane Harbinger: XXIV
As his strength escaped his now feeble body, Ancestor Origin was left to wallow in pain and disbelief. While it was true that with his abilities, this wasn’t true death and finding a next host would be only a matter of time, it mattered little right now. For he had found the best host for his ambitions and selfish heart – the boy who had been snatched from his grasp just when he thought he was going to achieve what he sought – and had lost him. No matter whom his next host was, there was no way this person could compare to a Supreme. He had lost a great opportunity. And even worse was that he had lost it because of one weaker than him. In his depressed state he felt the power of space returning to him, and a scoff of disdain escaped his nostrils.“It is only now that you return?” Ancestor Origin sighed as his hazy eyes gazed upon the remnants of the tattered sky. The pillar of light that symbolized his killer’s boost in strength was dissipating and everything was returning to normal –
Hunters: The Prequel I Am Mane Harbinger: XXV
Crystal’s eyes were filled with despair and with every step that the God of Destruction took this despair only deepened. The harsh reality of the bias nature of life hit her like a raging bull and knocked her hopes unconscious. Her comfort from completing her mission her relief knowing that her death will not be in vain; both had been tossed out the window right now. The victory she had yet to relish and her prize who lay lifeless just some distance from here will surely grin gleefully seeing that she was about to become another’s prize and her Lord with her. Only a few moments ago she had been the one celebrating her victory. Just some moments ago she had brought fear to the Origin King’s heart. Now she had to live the last moments of her life living in the fear wrought by another; another whom she had heard no good thing about.“How are you here?” Crystal wondered; her eyes filled with caution. The slight tremble in her voice couldn’t be hidden. But whether that tremble was born fr

Hunters: The Prequel Arriving at Godking Academy
“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
Hunters: The Prequel Departure and Arrival
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
Hunters: The Prequel What Was Gained
“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
Hunters: The Prequel The Woman and the Cat
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
Hunters: The Prequel Dan's Rescue: II
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
Hunters: The Prequel Dan's Rescue: I
“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
