“How long has it been since I was forced to shed blood?” Heavenly Demon Kim Min wondered as he sprang to his feet as quickly as he had fallen. Although he was hurt, his eyes were still brightly lit. He ignored the injuries that gnawed at his soul and cackled loudly.“You are quite spirited for someone whose lungs have ruptured,” Master Subhuti commented as he slowly made his way over to the Heavenly Demon. Indeed, that seemingly insignificant palm was actually a powerful technique called Shaking Heavens. It was a skill so strong that no weapon could handle it, so Master Subhuti usually delivered it with his own body. However, that also meant that he received a huge penalty for using it.“Is it true that you will be unable to gather your energy properly in the next twenty seconds?” Heavenly Demon Kim Min laughed as he asked.While many didn’t know about Master Subhuti, Heavenly Demon Kim Min wasn’t one of the many. Unlike his careless looking self, he was a very careful man. He knew
A ruptous energy enveloped Heavenly Demon Kim Min, forcing Master Subhuti to take a few steps backward. "He truly is the last of his kind; and the only disciple of Cronos." Master Subhuti mumbled as he stabilised his own energy. The yellow light that engulfed him filled his eyes, allowing him to see past the physical realm and peer into the destiny of man and god alike. Not even the Heavenly Demon could escape this power. Well, at least that's what Master Subhuti thought."Breath: Destiny Vision"This was the power that let Master Subhuti see who Heavenly Demon Kim Min really was. This was the power of truth itself; and it was the power that allowed Master Subhuti to peer into Heavenly Demon Kim Min's past. And this was the past he saw.He saw a young boy with filth crowning his head and mud his feet, crying helplessly under the unmerciful sun of a remote planet in the 7th Heaven. He saw a young boy discarded and lost, beaten by day and forced to hunger at night. He saw a young boy
Heavenly Demon Kim Min smiled when he said those words. This was a genuine smile; it wasn't like the large grin he always had on his face. However, this smile didn't remain on his face for long. Soon the Heavenly Demon was back to being himself, and he warned Master Subhuti of what was coming."It will be different this time," he said and moved.His figure disappeared and reappeared next to Master Subhuti, forcing the Taoist God into a confrontation.Heavenly Demon Kim Min gripped his sword tightly and swung it with great force. The skies above rippled as the True Demon King made his appearance. The winds howled and space cracked under the pressure of that one sword swing. A sword light so red that the crimson of blood paled in comparison sharpened the edges of the Limitless Sword and caused it to become a weapon of universal destruction. And all this, was aimed at one man."Huuuuu" Master Subhuti was as calm as a rock. His eyes coolly regarded the powerful swing that approached with
Outside the God Sealing Orb, Butler Fin watched with wide eyes the events that were occuring inside the orb. He saw everything, from the moment Master Subhuti and Heavenly Demon Kim Min started fighting, to the moment the fight ended. And he clearly saw Kim Min cleaving the laws of the God Sealing Orb apart!"This isn't good!" Butler Fin showed some anxiety for the first time ever. His eyes were filled with unease as he watched the ever unshakable God Sealing Orb trembling violently within his hands."I must let go," Butler Fin's decided upon feeling a powerful energy locking on to him. He quickly made a decision, leaving the God Sealing Orb behind and swiftly retreating; and the thing that happened in the next second proved that his decision was the right one.A blinding red light escaped the orb and pierced through the expanse. The red light swiftly gathered into a sword light that radiated such a huge amount of power that Butler Fin looked like a child before it. Without any delay
“Mmm,” a man clad in a long black robe took a deep breath like one starved of freedom for several centuries. His eyes were calm and warm, yet there was a deep layer of excitement that the man’s composure could not hide. His smile was as broad as the dimensions of the sea, and even though it was covered by several layers of hair as thick as a collie’s, this smile could not be hidden. The man had a beard so long that he it reached the ground. As for his long wavy hair, it was able to accomplish what his heard was unable to. It kissed the ground and gently draped its surface like the gown of a woman about to be wed. As though this man wasn’t strange enough, he was accompanied by a cat. This cat was covered by black fur and was as small as a newborn kitten. However, the aura that this small beast exuded was so great that any beast below the King Level would be found shivering in fright before it. This man was Pazuzu, the greatest demon to have ever lived in the Dreamscape and the one thin
“She must be done by now right?” Mane wondered as several balls of fire revolved around him with such precise control that one would have assumed that fire was his greatest element.“Well, she did say that she would be done by today,” Hildegarde nodded her head and confirmed her Tested’s words. Since Mane became a Noble, the power of his flames were beyond the tolerance level of any fairy. Maybe only the Fairy Elders and the Fairy King would be able to handle his flames nonchalantly. Hildegarde wasn’t at that level. She definitely wasn’t strong enough to handle Mane’s flames without using her true power! The duo’s conversation was centered on the promise of the one called Zica, the former Supreme of the True Universe. Night Mare and Night’s Kiss had been handed over to Zica some time ago, with the former Supreme promising to turn those two weapons into Divine Weapons before the fortnight. “Do you think we should check up on her to see if she’s done?” Mane asked Hildegarde. The l
“They don’t look any different,” Mane rubbed his bearded chin as he analysed the two swords that lay before him. After confessing that she was done reforming his blades, Zica had retrieved the two companions of the Supreme of the True Universe. She had presented them to the expectant mane who then went on to check out the twin swords. Unfortunately, Mane’s excitement was dampened swiftly when he did the initial analysis. Neither Night Mare nor Night’s Kiss looked different from how they looked before they were given to Zica. How was this supposed to be an improvement?“Are you really a Supreme?” Zica asked with furrowed brows. Her words caused Mane’s brows to twitch but he didn’t respond. The reason he didn’t respond was because of his fairy. Just like Zica, Hildegarde was wondering if Mane had forgotten about his abilities. “Have you forgotten that you are also a Spiritualist?” Hildegarde sighed with an exhausted look on her face. “Sorry,” Mane smiled wryly with an embarrassed
Mane stared at the strange markings that had appeared on the two swords. With his sharp vision he could easily discern that each sword was engraved differently, displaying Zica’s remarkable skill. However, the symbols on the sword were so familiar that Mane swore that he had seen them before. “Are these runes?” Hildegarde who had been silent during this entire encounter was stunned by what she was seeing. As a member of the Fairy Race which had a close relationship with the God King Odin, she was familiar with the many runes that Asgardians could engrave. Of course, the citizens of Asgard preferred to engrave runes on their bodies, choosing not to sully their weapons. Although one would think Asgardians strange because of how highly they regarded their weapons but disregarded the sanctity of their bodies, Hildegarde was aware of the real reason why Asgardians refused to engrave runes onto their weapons. “Runes? Yeah, they definitely look like runes.” Mane nodded in assent. That was
“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
