And once again the end of the year apporaches, and though the season has come over and over again for many of us, its magic and delightfulness is not lost on us. I am happy to have you celebrating this season with me. And I am grateful to God for bringing us all to the end of another year. In the Spirit of a cheerful Christmas, I will be uploading two chapters every Saturday instead of one from this day till January 2, 2022 by God's grace. Please stay safe and be blessed. And have a lovely Christmas: one filled with cheer that spills swellingly into the year that approaches anew.

Hunters: The Prequel The War of the Two Heavens
There were many gods in this universe. And each god clan had its own residence. However, for the god clans that ruled over the heavens, their status was far from that of the ordinary god clans. Of the 7 Heavenly Realms, the rulers were each strong and powerful. And rarely did their clans become engulfed in the struggles that plagued other god clans. But this was a strange year. For two of the Heavenly Realms were plagued with exactly these kind of troubles. For the 1st and 2nd Heavenly Realms were in turmoil, and the worlds that fell under their jurisdiction felt the effects of their chaotic battle for succession. The 2nd Heaven was the realm of the Olympians. Aries, the son of Zeus and brother of Athena had declared himself king after defeating his father – Zeus. Along with his declaration was a fierce struggle that was still ongoing even till this day. The 1st Heaven was slightly better off in comparison to the 2nd Heaven. For the 1st Heaven still had Thor – the
Hunters: The Prequel Thor and Thrud; Father and Daughter
“That’s the last of them,” Thor stated as he crushed the head of an Ascended Giant easily with nothing but his bare hands. Next to him was the Valkyrie who shared many of his facial features. The beautiful Valkyrie evaded the blow of an Ascended Giant herself, before twisting her body and making her way behind the Frost Giant to deliver a devastating jab to its temple. Then she leaped high into the air and came crushing down with her sword.*Whish*The head of the Frost Giant came off quite simply. These two made killing Ascenders look really simple.“Don’t wipe that on your cape,” Thrud, daughter of Thor and one of the Heads of the Valkyries chided as she forcefully separated the God of Thunder’s hands from his cape. Alas, the simple thunder god had already wiped much of the blood and gore onto his golden cape.“Sorry,” Thor shrunk back from his daughter’s piercing gaze.“Frigg work
Hunters: The Prequel Sealed
In a desolate land long destroyed during the war of the gods so many millennia ago, a cloaked man with a raven perched on his shoulder resided. He was seated on a small solitary rock; his eyes fixed on what was before him. Before this man was a tear in the dimensional space; a new land of pure energy right before him. In his hand was a long wooden staff that looked insignificant and unimpressive, regardless of which angle one viewed it from. Yet the specks of Edict that flocked towards it and latched onto the staff said otherwise.*Croak*Along with a loud caw, another small raven descended from the clouds and landed stably on the unoccupied shoulder of the man – nay, the god.“Oh Huginn? You’re back. What did you find out?” The man’s raspy voice was heard as he strangely communicated with the bird.*Croak*The black feathered bird displayed its unusually high intelligence by actually cawing out a reply. And even stran
Hunters: The Prequel Skills of Barbarian Royalty
In the World of the Three Great Races; A Few Minutes After Mane Had Been Taken“Matriarch, I have found her body,” a tall man with a gorgeous sword strapped to his waist was knelt right next to a withered corpse. Although the condition of the corpse wasn’t great, with several bruises and injuries littering its frame and severely atrophied muscles, this man still recognised the corpse. And why wouldn’t he? After all, this woman had been his rival for over a hundred years. This man was the aide of the Matriarch of the Ancients. And as it was, as it always had been, he was here with the woman who held the fates of every Ancient in her aged hands.The Matriarch of the Ancients was several meters away from her aide. Her focus was on the four figures hanging from the pole. She stared at them with eyes that radiated with infinite wisdom, almost as if they had been soaked in the well of Mimir for dozens of years before being gi
Hunters: The Prequel Elder Glass
Intersection, Within the Palace of the Barbarian LordMagma was seated upon his throne of authority, his mood a much improved one from the last time when he heard of his sister’s death. Next to him was Rasa the Wise Flame. However they weren’t the only ones here. Although Waska was nowhere to be found, almost every Elder was here before them. And in their midst was a beautiful woman covered in dust kneeling on the ground. As she spoke the looks of the Elders grew grimmer and grimmer. Ugly expressions overtook the faces that were formerly filled with a genuine lack of interest. And they began to speak amongst themselves.“If what she says is true, then we must strike ourselves”“Yes. Based on her report this boy is too dangerous to be left alive.”“To think that a Pseudo Nightmare would be able to take on an entire team stronger than him and force a Nightmare to retreat.”“It’s unbelievable”
Hunters: The Prequel Primogenitor and Pathfinder
The Barbarian Race was blessed with 7 Ancestors. They were blessed with seven men and women who had the power of Phenoms. However, these 7 weren’t always around. At times all but one were outside Intersection, seeking to find the mysteries of the world they didn’t quite understand although they had reached the very summit of the said world. It was rare for all 7 to be present at Intersection at a time. At most there would be about 4 or 5 available. But even then, the people of Intersection had no idea which Ancestors were around, and how many remained to watch over their city. Even the Elders weren’t privy to such knowledge. Of course there were some Elders who knew more than others. A few families which were blessed to have a member of their race as an Ancestor knew when their Ancestors were around. And an Elder like Glass was also made privy to such knowledge because of his special identity. However, there was one person who was always aware of the movement of th
Hunters: The Prequel Ashera's Past and the Curse of the Hundred
“Calm down Primogenitor,” Pathfinder placed his hand on his ancestor’s shoulder in an attempt to calm her down. Very few things could make the one, true ancestor of the Barbarians lose control.Unfortunately, Ashera was one of those few things. In fact, the other ancestors knew that to mention the name Ashera in her presence was inviting her wrath. And no one wanted that – not even those who now shared a status almost equal to hers.“Whew. Sorry about that.” Primogenitor apologized with a bright smile on her face. It was almost as if her outburst from before was nothing but an illusion. But it wasn’t. And Magma knew that all too well. His pale face and rapidly trembling frame from the residual aura of a powerful Phenom was proof of that.“Calm yourself,” Pathfinder furrowed his brows and placed his hand on Magma’s shoulder. Immediately Magma felt a warm current flowing through his body and calming his r
Hunters: The Prequel The Curse of Ashera
“Ashera isn’t as strong as she was in her prime,” the Primogenitor suddenly decided to say some things that she had kept hidden for a while.“How so?” Pathfinder asked. As Phenoms they didn’t grow weaker as they aged, only stronger. So the 1st Ancestor had to explain what exactly she meant.“When she was sealed in the Tower of the Hundred, she wasn’t sealed as the Blood Witch.” The Primogenitor started.“The Tower of the Hundred isn’t an ordinary cursing artefact. It has the ability to seal a person’s strength as well. But since it wasn’t evoked in her curse, it isn’t part of the bargain. That’s where her actual curse comes into play.”“The reason she is able to leave the tower every now and then is because of the sealing power of the tower.”“What do you mean?” Pathfinder furrowed his brows. The 1st Ancestor

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
