Hi, my name is Liam Remmick and this is a story of how I killed my father; Steve Nazar— FYI he’s a douche bag.I guess if I'm gonna tell this story, I better start from the beginning. I could tell you not to worry about spoilers but I don’t give a damn if I spoil a thing or two. My mom; Shayla Remmick, left me at an early age, and ever since I have been catering for myself. She uh...died when I was ten so yeah, you could guess the rest.Unlike other kids who have wonderful fathers, mine is an absolute asshole. He’s a douche bag, a fucking cunt. He fucked my mom and rejected her when she got pregnant—talk about hit and run. Instead of being a doting father, he became a father hell-bent on eliminating my mom and me; really nice guy, isn't he?—well he achieved his aim.Mom died fighting off and protecting me from the assassins Dad hired—father of the year. I know.Ever since mom&rsqu
I came back from hunting in the forest—it was the only way I use to get by. These days it’s hard to get a successful hunt.After a harsh day of getting nothing, I went back home—to my cave. As I get close to the cave I hear a dull thud inside. At first, I am filled with smiles because I thought a bear or some animal was inside resting—they do it sometimes.I tiptoe to the entrance not to scare the animal and that’s when I see the sound was made by something that has a human figure, standing at the entrance with a disappointed look, I shouted“Who’s there!?”I waited for a reply but nothing came. The shadowy figure is sitting inside the cave with unsteady breathing—you could tell whoever the breath is coming from is injured“From your breathing, I can tell you are injured...” I said as I walk into the cave“T
Selena and Henri are still arguing with each other when a gust of wind starts to blow. Fixing their attention at the direction of the wind, a portal takes shape. Not knowing who will walk out from the portal, Henri tightens his grip on his staff, combat-ready to attack“Sage!?” Selena calls for him as sweat drops from the side of her cheek“I know. Stay focused” he saidSeth comes out of the portal with one hand in his pocket and the other waving at them “Yo!”Selena being angry for worrying about nothing shouts at her father“Can’t you just appear as everybody does? Is it really necessary to blow things away”“It’s called dramatic entrance and since when did you become concerned about how I appear?”“She almost wet her pants because she thought the portal was Ste
On a chilly night lit up by the full moon, Seth and Steve are sitting on a cliff enjoying the cool breeze caress their soft skin. At the cliff, you can see all of the Realm at its finest. This is the place they first met each other. “I hear you are going to be a father soon” Steve said “Yeah, I guess” Seth said sounding depressed “You don’t seem too excited about it” Seth sighs ignoring what he said “You are gonna be called Father” Steve said trying to get him to talk but Seth chuckles sadly “What’s on your mind?” “A name for the baby...” “You know you suck at naming” Steve said with his face burning with laughter “I do not”
As Selena is training in an open space I fly out through Seth’s portal landing with my face first, eating the Realm’s dirt.“Welcome to the Realm kid” he said with an evil smirk on his face “Meet your nephew, Selena”I get angry, ready to fight him ignoring Selena’s presence“Why the heck did you kick me into the portal?”“It felt like the right thing to do and I must say it felt good”“You must be Liam, ni—”“Not now kid” I ruddily caught her off and turned my attention back to Seth “I hurt my nose you old fart”“I will kick you harder next time till you learn how to open one”“Hey!” Selena holds me by the shirt collar and draws me close to her “Who are you calling kid?”“You ar
A young boy with blond hair sits on the cliff side of the mountain staring at oblivion when a young boy with messy spiky hair walks over to him with a smile on his face “Yo!” “What?” Steve asked with a frown“With that attitude you are not gonna get any girl to fall for you” Steve ignores him and fixes his eyes at the blue sky“I am Seth Remmick but you can call me Seth” he said extending his hand for a handshake butSteve keeps watching the sky“What’s your name?” Seth ask“If you don’t want to die, I suggest you move”
CHAPTER SIX–> REUNIONA great explosion occurs in the Shadow Realm and Seth goes to see what caused it. Steve sits on a rock playing with pebbles in his hand.“Now that should have woken them” he grinsSeth comes running after he heard the explosion, he stops few meters away from him“Hello old friend?” Steve said with a smirk on his face“S-Steve?” he asks with a shocked look on his face“You look like you just saw a ghost bro”“What are you doing here?”“Come on that’s not how to talk to an old friend. If you won’t say it, I will. It’s good to see you again” He said with a stern look“We both know why you came and it isn’t just to say hi”“True” he nodded looking at the floor then looking up at him again“Might it be you’ve come back to your senses?

The sun gently caress the damaged village, waking up the residents to yet another beautiful day of hardship. The great people of Zionkia doing the best they could to rebuild their fallen village by staying optimistic of a change in power. Kevin is already up preparing to set off after he couldn’t find Selena anywhere. She creeps up on him from behind“I thought you had left when I came outside and didn’t see you”“I went for a walk. I see you are set to leave”“Yea. Are you still coming with me?”“Yup. So where are we going?”“I work in a farm owned by one of the Lords. Josh gifted his trusted friends some lands and gave them the title of Lordship” he leads her out of the house and into the street“I see. Your parents, what happened to them?”“When did you became a scholar” he avoids answering her previous question“Not too lon
After leaving the Hunter’s Headquarters, Selena makes her way to a village ridden with poverty. Zionkia was once a beautiful village known for its mining heritage. The town and its kind hearted Emperor prospered with the people beckoning him, until Josh surprisingly gains a tremendous power and overthrow the Emperor and now the people of Zionkia mine nonstop for JoshTheir male children are taken from them to spend the rest of their life mining while the female are turned into slaves and sex dolls. The Emperor with his advisers, do with the girls whatever they desire—bunch of sick fucksSelena walks into the village, she sees various homes destroyed, some without roof, soldiers breaking into some of the buildings and roughly throwing the residents out while looting them of their property. Skinny children are out on the street looking like what a dog threw up. The only emporium that is open was set up by the Emperor and this emporium never sells in small pri
I wake up with a mind-blowing migraine and see Sophia and Henri's fretful stare, they are sitting next to me. I try to force myself up but Sophia holds me down—I think she’s telling me not to force it. I can’t make out what she is saying“Who did this to you, son?” I think I heard Henri say but before I could answer, my body gives out on me and my eyes close shut as I lose consciousness again“We should let him rest. His body hasn’t recovered. Don’t forget he got poisoned. Liam is lucky to be alive”“Dammit!” He bites down on his lips. Sophia gently rubs his shoulder“Go and rest old man. He will be fine”……………………✍🏾“You are cousin to blondie?” Ken ask but Selena igno
Ken the silver haired Hunter that abducted Madame Abigail’s corpse appears in front of an old ragged building with Madame Abigail in a body bag. He kicks the steel door open effortlessly and throws the corpse in with no respect for the dead body. He casually walks in whistling“Take it easy on her kid. Corpses contain vital information and power” Karl a quick diener cautionsI don’t care about that as long as you pay me” he scoffs “What do you do with all the corpses we get for you?”“What I do with them is none of your concern” he goes over to verify the body“That’s right. Payment already dammit”Karl open the bag and stares at the body looking for damages. His veins pop out in rage when he sees the hole on her body. Angrily he points at the hole and yells at Ken “What did this to her? I told you not to damage her, you runt”“I don’t know. Some
Sophia takes care of an aged woman who is sick. She checks if her pulse is normal and after she is done, she gives her advice on the foods to eat and things not to do. She bows at Sophia expressing her gratitude before she takes her leave.Sophia heads over to see Sage Henri after she can’t control her frustrations anymore—she has been thinking about me and is overly concerned, qualities I thought she never heard. She encounters him on his way out“Are you going out?”“Yes. The King has summoned me for yet another meeting”“There’s something I need to ask”“It has to wait till I’m back. I will come see you”“It can’t. Let’s do this now” she stands in his way“It's about Liam, isn’t it?” he sighs“Why did you let him go?”“We’ll talk about this when I’m back, child”&
THE FALSE FLOWER From the desert I made my way into a city with very tall buildings—each building looked like they are competing on who’s going to touch the sky first. It is a beautiful city, nevertheless. I arrived in a market crowded with people going about their daily business. You would get nudged here and there without the offender showing any remorse This is a perfect opportunity for a pickpocket to strike without getting caught—I for one as a kid wouldn’t miss this kind of opportunity although I was never good at pickpocketing. I had my valuable tied around my wrist with a rope then drop it deep in my pocket. The rope tied to my wrist should stop anyone from running away I walked a few miles before my stomach started rumbling and I decide to stop at a shop selling apples. Drool dripped from my chin to the floor as I stare hopelessly at the magnificent reddish seductive skin of the apple “Welcome
CHAPTER EIGHT -> OUTSIDE WORLDIn a hot burning desert a portal emerges as I gracefully step out of it. My face is burning red, my brows bent in rage as I find myself in the middle of nowhere—opening portals is still giving me a hard time. I sigh heavily and cover my nose with her scarf, protecting my lungs from the hot suffocating air. Every step I take through the sand feels like I’m dragging all of the Shadow Realm with meI’m dehydrated and my leg muscles will probably give up on me—"I’m not gonna make it” would always run through my head.A tall, long limbed, broad shouldered man that is in his 45’s wearing a charcoal suit, leather riding boots and an intricately knotted red cravat, covered by a full-length and red frock overcoat that is similar to a duster coat with a cape, jumps down from an animal with hunchedback. I shake my head severally to make sure I’m not seeing a stupid mirage
CHAPTER SEVEN -> ECLIPSEI am training with Seth’s clone when it disappeared without a head’s up. A gush of wind blows carrying with it a bad feeling just after Seth’s clone disappeared, so I stop my training and quickly get ready to return to the Shadow Realm. Selena is having a mother and daughter moment, drinking tea with her mother while talking about Seth, I and the Realm when her cup of tea crack on the side all of a sudden without coming in contact with anythingShe and her mother recognize the omen. Selena says goodbye to her mother and opens a portal back home. Back at the Realm, Henri has Seth’s ash in a jar. Because Shadow Phantom is a special grade technique used to eliminate a group of people within seconds, it also consumes the user’s lifespan and taking into fact that Seth used this technique to absorb the energy Ex Calibur got from the Realm's Earth, Seth's body turned into as
