Hunters: The Prequel The Boy Who Killed A God
Mane’s awakening was a joyous thing for everyone. The ecstatic ancestors were the first to receive the news and had rushed to meet Mane – all, but Ancestor Spector who was buckled down with numerous tasks. Ancestor Ice and Ancestor Storm were especially happy to see Mane. Why wouldn’t they be? For though Crystal did promise them that Mane’s sleep was her doing an d that he would awaken soon, they couldn’t shake off the fear that the boy would sleep forever. After all, he did face a god. Staying alive was a good result after fighting a person who was meant to be immortal. They needed Mane if they wanted to defeat Pazuzu. They needed the boy who killed a god. But all of them had to leave the place once the twins heard the news. For once the Lam and Lily found out that their best friend had awakened, they dropped everything and came to see him. Their status was very unordinary now – much more than it was in the fore. For now they were the ones charged with leading the reconstruction of t

Mane’s leap was daring, yet when one considered that he was a Body Wielding Noble, it seemed like humility to leap from a tower that didn’t reach past the confines of the atmosphere. The wind pressure alone should have been enough to ruffle his clothes, yet Mane’s attire remained as it was. His clothes defied the laws of physics and moved freely in the wind, almost like Mane was taking a casual stroll through the neighborhood.Down below, the mouths of many of the workers were agape in shock. They had just witnessed a man leap off a building without a single display of caution. All the men and women below were competent warriors in their own right, but none dared to make such a leap. And though they had witnessed their ancestors flying around freely constantly, they had never seen any of their leaders take such a daring leap; they had never witnessed a man playing with – no, taunting – fate.“Did he just jump down?” Lam was the person in charge here. Lily was stationed elsewhere, deal

Several kilometers away from Amalgamation, at the location where the great forest that marked the boundary of the Elemental territory previously stood, an old woman with a Lion head cane stood calmly. Her aged eyes swept across the land, taking in the distinct differences; differences that had been born from two gods reckless rampage. She sighed painfully when she saw how much damage the land had accrued. And though this wasn’t the land of her people, it didn’t mean that she couldn’t sympathize with the Elementals. For though the land of the Ancients had faced its own share of devastation, it couldn’t compare with what she was seeing here.“Being close to the source of the destruction surely didn’t help,” the old lady sighed and lightly tapped her cane on to the ground. Her simple action elicited a loud groan of discomfort from the earth beneath her, and it shook and trembled as it struggled to patch itself together. Yet no matter how much it tried, it just couldn’t mend its wounds.“

Back in the broken city of Amalgamation, Mane was entertaining the people with his unreal power. Many of the workers were working no more. For all were intrigued by the Supreme’s amazing ability and unbelievable control over the elements. For once Mane received his assignment, the power of Elemental Telekinesis was put on full display. Like a seasoned weaver Mane moved his arms around and intricately dictated the paths of every earth granule in his presence. And they obliged his call. Every single person, from young to old and old to even older, marveled at what they saw and were amazed by the power of the young Supreme. Mane floated freely in the air. With his mastery of wind, he didn’t have to put much effort into achieving weightlessness. As he breezed past, every single grain of sand and piece of broken earth – every single slab – he dislodged in his battle with Shiva was uprooted and put back into place. Mane could feel his energy through the stones and the winds. He could sense

“Yours?” Mane asked, stunned by the reply he got.“We couldn’t have the people panicking. And there was no way the world would accept you if they knew what you were capable of.” Lam started.“So you told them exactly what I was capable of but positioned me in the seat of a hero,” Mane interrupted.“Yes,” Lam nodded his head. “People have always been blinded when it comes to the goodness of a hero. No matter how much strength a hero possesses, the masses would adore him. Though the higher authorities would still see a massive threat when they look at this person, the regular folks wouldn’t see this. All they would see is someone strong enough to protect them from the greatest threats.” Lam continued.“So instead of letting them know that I was fighting for my own life, you twisted the truth by saying I was fighting to save the world,” Mane sighed as a dull headache breached his hard exterior and gnawed its way into his skull.Politics had always been a tiring thing for him. Schemes, li

Sasha roared in delight and landed right in front of Mane. The large Nether Beast jumped onto Mane, forgetting to de-miniaturize. Luckily for her, Mane was Mane. He allowed Sasha’s paws to descend onto his shoulders and returned the large lion’s hug. Silver was a bit slower, and had to settle for watching the two act all cozily with each other before his turn arrived.“Where have you been you furry baby?” Mane lovingly rubbed Sasha’s fur as the large cat purred in delight. Her eyes were narrowed into narrow crescents as she enjoyed the caress of her human companion. It was only after several minutes that Sasha let Mane go. And that was because Silver kept whining pitifully at the back.“Silver,” Mane smirked and pulled Silver onto his shoulders. Unlike Sasha, Silver de-miniaturized the minute he landed next to Mane. And so it was much easier to have the small monkey all over the young Supreme. Once Silver was close to Mane, he took matters into his own hands and leapt from the young

Mane’s figure easily went past the reconstructed gate. The young Supreme’s pace, though leisurely, was much greater than what the average Noble could manage. In less than five seconds he had left Amalgamation so far behind him that it was a small dot in the distance. But his journey was meant to end here. For Sasha pawed at him once he was at the place she wanted him to be at. And Mane furrowed his brows in doubt.He could see nothing; he could smell nothing; and worst of all, he sensed nothing. Mane was at a stage where nothing could be hidden from him. His abilities as a Scholar were at their near-peak and so were his abilities as a Spiritualist. Logically speaking, there should be no one in this world capable of evading his senses or throwing him off for that matter. Usually Mane would have gone past this place and searched for the actual meeting place. But Sasha was adamant. The Nether Beast was confident that this was the place. So Mane descended from the sky above and graced the

“Oh? The boy knows his stuff.” Komfo Anokye’s surprise lasted only a moment. He recovered soon enough and was back to his smiling self. He could feel his soul trembling in excitement. The tremble was slight and almost inconspicuous. But anyone well trained in the art of souls could discern this. And that was why Komfo Anokye praised Mane. For clearly Mane had associated his trembling soul to his bloodline.Keira was silent. Her eyes were focused on Mane, so much so that the young boy was starting to feel a bit uncomfortable. But he didn’t want to show his ancestors any disrespect, so he didn’t comment on it or show any obvious signs of discomfort. The issue was that Mane was in the presence of one of the greatest minds to have ever roamed the true universe. He stood before the man who had earned Ananse’s – a goddess of wisdom’s – respect. Komfo Anokye saw right through Mane’s discomfort with his discerning eyes and chuckled.“Forgive us Mane. My sister is a bit terrified to meet you.”
