Suspicions Part II
"Just so you know, your earlier theory is correct. The Shadow God has indeed reached the ne plus ultra of godhood." Ray looked Butler Fin in the eye as he spoke. His countenance was stern, his words without an iota of doubt.
"I see", Butler Fin replied. "What gave him away?" he continued. He was aware that his 'employer' wouldn't be so certain if he didn't have proof. He curious about the how though. Since Seth had blocked his senses, and since he had kept out of Ray's way, he wasn't clear concerning what had happened to give the Shadow God away. He wanted to know how Ray had caught on to the elusive one.
"The head of the Assassins Organisation was his giveaway." Ray answered. Fin looked at him without a word, waiting for him to continue. "There is something I never told you, mostly because I was certain that you wouldn't approve. Apart from me, only my uncle and wife know." Ray sighed in resignation as he confessed. Butler Fin knew everything, well almost everything.

"You think he was summoned? Why do you say so?" Butler Fin had his eyebrows raised in surprise. For an entity like himself, there were a few things that could surprise him. It had been millions of years ago since he was last stunned. He had been amused a few times but that was it. However, this time there was nothing amusing about what he was hearing. If what the Brute King Ray saying wasn't mere speculation, then…"There is someone in this world that dares to summon the unpredictable god of darkness." Ray spoke his thoughts out exactly, making the older god almost question whether the young battle god had stayed with him so long that he could…"Finish your sentences? Yeah I can." Ray smirked triumphantly upon having correctly guessed what his mentor was thinking. Butler Fin smiled in amusement. For a moment both of them cast aside their temporary worries as they cast their minds back to the simpler times. Those times when it was just the two of them. Tha

"But this person is different. He isn't rejected by the world, since he can use his powers freely. It's seems to be the opposite." Butler Fin pondered out loud. "You mean our perp has the world's will on his side?" Ray questioned. "He does" Butler Fin nodded in reply."I ask you Ray, when you left on your rampage, did you find anything strange?" Butler Fin asked. Ray creased his brows, his brain worked double time, eager to notice something that he had missed. Looking at his ward deep in thought, Butler Fin smiled wryly. He sure wished that Ray was as quick-minded as his wife at certain times. It wasn't that Ray was dimwitted or slow. It was far from that. But the Brute King was close to two of the brightest minds in the universe. In their presence and company, his sharp mind was nothing but a blunt dagger. One that was easily overpowered by their sharp and resilient blades."Just let me see the entire process of your rampage." Butler Fin sighed in defeat after waiting
Hunters: The Prequel Difference Of Opinion Part I
"It is impressive that someone was able to spy on us." Ray smirked carelessly. Butler Fin ignored the 'boy's' mockery and replied, "It is remarkable. Just like a mortal was able to endure your glow." Ray shut up at the rebuttal. The glow he used on the assassin was one of his most prized possessions. It was called Brimstone. This glow allowed Ray to burn things down even to a molecular level. Even the soul wasn't spared this agony. Being burnt by these flames ensured that one's soul would be lost for all eternity, completely destroyed, leaving nothing for the eager arms of the grim reaper. It was certain that the grim reaper hated this technique. No one would appreciate a skill that starved them of their food.The reason why Butler Fin dared to mock Ray concerning this was because although Ray had used his glow, the small part of the soul which held the imprint had survived, and conveyed all that happened to the castor- everything that happened in its last moments. Lucid Drea
Hunters: The Prequel Difference Of Opinion Part II
"You would have to tell him eventually. If you don't, he definitely will find out. Many Supremes learned about their responsibilities before they were even ten. Your boy is almost eleven years old. And he is a bright kid. He would eventually find out what you are keeping from him." As usual, Butler Fin went on to tell him what he thought."I know. I just want him to have a bit of freedom right now. To play with his friends, to grow stronger without truly feeling any pressure. Is that too much to ask for?" Ray sighed tiredly."No, it isn't. You want him to be a child for a little more time. You want him to actually grow, and not to be forced into his growth. But Mane was never truly a child. His level of maturity has always been very high. Even Jake said so himself. The boy already knows that there are people after him. And he knows that these people are pretty darn strong. All I'm saying is that it is better for him to learn about his destiny from you, than to have to
Hunters: The Prequel Weapon Masters Part I
"Wait a minute. If that is the case, how come I don't have such an ability?" Ray's question poked a hole in the old butler's explanation. If all that was said was true, how come he had no such abilities?"Do you remember how you mastered the sword?" Butler Fin asked."Not really" Ray replied."That is because you didn't. You just picked it up and started using sword arts you had previously seen. I found it strange but assumed it was extreme luck. It makes much more sense now." Butler Fin orated."Besides, you aren't a true weapons master. If you were, your affinity wouldn't only be with the sword." Butler Fin continued. Ray kept mute, opting to say nothing and waiting patiently for his master to continue."You didn't have a baptism by chaos. This baptism was usually done on their home world. Their sacred treasure, 'Kerith', was an origin divine artefact capable of bestowing this blessing. Strangely enough, only Weapon Masters could undergo the bapt

"So many interesting things happened while we were away. Mommy is sorry she wasn't there for you." Alexis gently stroked Mane's hair as she apologised for her absence in their child's life. Although Ray wasn't mentioned, it was implied that he was included in the apology."It doesn't matter" Mane replied with a bright smile on his face. "At least you are here now", the blonde haired boy continued. Mane leaned into his mother's embrace as he spoke. Since his awakening, Alexis had abandoned her chair and joined him on his bed. Using his headrest as her back support, she lent her frame to her son to use instead. And Mane's large smile showed just how pleased he was with the current situation."You are very mature" Alexis stated the obvious as a bitter smile adorned her lips. She wasn't sad because her son was now mature in his dealings. Rather, she was quite pleased with the development. Her only regret was that she wasn't there to see it happen. She wasn't in the process
Hunters: The Prequel The Deep Part I
In a land far from the Western Empire, which neither sees light nor rain, a lone figure sat on a polished rock. His expression was haggard, reminiscent of one who had exhausted every bit of energy in every fibre of his being. If one wanted to know the true meaning of exhaustion, they could just look at his face, and peer into his eyes. His eyes were green, an even rarer colour than Mane's sky blue pearls. They acted as the only source of light in this man forsaken place. This was 'The Deep'. One of the forbidden zones in Zandor. It was famed for its cruelty in returning all who entered as heaps of skin and bones to its outskirts. This land was a great mystery. Unlike other forbidden areas like the Forest of Gloom that provided reasons for their danger, this one did not. Anyone who dares venture into the Forest of Gloom was aware of the dangers it had. Many kingdoms, and even the Four Empire Coalition had given up on exploring that land because the beasts that resided in it were too
Hunters: The Prequel The Deep Part II
"I need to recover fast. Even if it is to my prior state before the attack, it will suffice. I know his secret now. Although they seem to have no enmity against me, I must still be on guard." He began to walk deeper into the cave as he spoke. But even this task proved difficult. His steps were slow, and his breathing strained. Dyspnoea wasn't the only thing he was battling against, for maintaining his balance as he moved was another war he was embroiled in- one that he was losing horribly. After stumbling for the third time in just a matter of seconds, he finally decided to use the walls of the cave for support. Utilising this makeshift railing, he slowly made his way deeper into the cave."But for now, it seems we have a common enemy. They must surely know about Seth now. Once the Brute King killed the Assassin Head, he knew this." Amidst batted breaths, the solitary figure matched on. Normally he wouldn't be so sure that Ray would know about Seth. After all, it was hard to
