********…..….." " Speech,' ' Thoughts,…..…..A little more than half an hour later,"Hmmn! Now I get it but I am still not at that level to understand difficult words!" The leader muttered after figuring out a way to read a few sentences from the diary."Well for now this will do for my report and the rest will be up to Higher-ups to sort out!" The leader put the diary back into the wooden box after reading whatever he could from the diary which made a basic understanding of what happened to this world.The man who wrote the diary was just an average person living his life as usual working part-time during the day and resting at the night, one day when he was playing with a newly bought smartphone which had become a trend at that time but little did he knew that the nightmare which would make the human close to instinct started from the same day.……(Marvin POV)I was enjoying my time as I rarely get the time to relax from the part-time jobs that I do.When I was surfing the int
********…..….." " Speech,' ' Thoughts,…..….."Hmmn, you are right about that but last time when we collated the materials, those guys from Fantasia Island were on our heels. Fortunately, you used your boys to distract them and brought us enough time to collect all the resources so for another expedition this time they might tighten their guard more so we need to be more careful!" The man in the chair said after thinking about the problem they would have to face."Chief Ji, you don't have to bother with that as that's our boys' work to keep those guys from fantasia island busy and you only have to gather the material without alerting the other side!" Chief Morg replied to chief Ji with clear disdain towards those idiots from Fantasia Island."Okay, if you can keep them busy then I can focus on collecting the materials!" Chief Ji grinned and replied with confidence to complete his part of the job.Then both of them discussed the plan on how to go about it. These two fellows have n
********…..….." " Speech,' ' Thoughts,…..…..After ten minutes,"Hello Old Kei, I have arrived at the location with 10 more brothers, so do you have a plan to proceed?" Old Sun called old Kei and informed him of their arrival and made sure that after arriving near the black market they did not alert the opponent so he parked their car a few alleys away from there."Good that you arrived on time and let me brief you on a simple plan we two decided to follow!" Old Kei said on the phone and old Sun was attentive to how they will solve this problem."Hmmn! Go on old Kei, I am listening!" Old Sun implored Old Kei to continue what he was saying."Well, It's not much of a plan. I and old Ren would first check the waters and see if we can find evidence with the man who is responsible for counterfeit company products and you all need to blend in the crowd of people and entered the black market without making any suspicious moves then wait for my signal, also don't forget to wear the micr
********…..….." " Speech,' ' Thoughts,…..….."Old Kei, can you guess where these guys stole this ornament from?" Old Ren asked, looking at the idiots trying to buy the stolen goods."Hmmn! If I am not wrong, this ornament belongs to China so maybe they stole some wealthy family young lash and are trying to sell it here so they won't be found out!" Old Ren replied thinking about the design of ornaments."Yeah, maybe you guessed correctly and from what I see, that dragon head carving matched the Chinese dragon so it's most likely from there!" Old Kei agreed with the old Ren assessment of ornament origin.After the hunched old man riled up some more to the crowd then he started the bid which instantly rose from a few thousand to 100 thousand and in the end, it got sold to the sassy young master for 300 thousand.The hunched old man had a very big smile when he successfully sold an item at a sky-high price.Just like that, one after another high-end items were auctioned and sold at
********…..….." " Speech,' ' Thoughts,…..….."Hey there, what's going on here!" Another big guy came over and looking at the small commotion he asked the guard."Hey, Fel! Can you take this guy from here, as you can see he is causing unnecessary mess here!" The guard said to the guard who just came after hearing the commotion."Hello, Sir! Can you please follow me upstairs to a private room where we can talk about how you are going to compensate for what you broke!" Fel guy said with a not-so-smiling face towards old Ren."Ohh! Hahaha, why not! Let's go…let's go to the second floor and talk in a silent place!" Old Ren laughed, finding his suggestion very good for his plan. He was thinking about how to sneak into the second floor and accompany old Kei.The Fel guy took old Ren to the second floor in a private room for four people so it wasn't big but for old Ren, it was enough as long as the noise wouldn't reach outside.Taking the advantage that the Fel guy had his back against
********…..….." " Speech,' ' Thoughts,…..….."Nevermind that come here and take out the rope and bind the target, the face of this man matches the profile on my phone!" Old Ren said, shaking his head from old Kei antiques."So this is the guy who has been causing our company problems and using it for his gains!" Old Kei came over and looked at the man with a dark expression, ready to give him the bashing of his life for muddling the sacred name of their company."The man is from the rival pharmaceutical company who has been trying to get in our company's business way by using all sorts of things but because of the boss's handling, they happened to receive only defeat. I already have all the data on how many disgusting things they have done behind the public eyes!" Old Ren said with a cold expression, as they regarded the company and boss with utmost honour for giving them their second life. So none of them can bear the slightest dishonest means towards the company and the boss.
********…..….." " Speech,' ' Thoughts,…..…..The window glass broke into many pieces suddenly, but Mr Nine-nine reacted quickly and took cover by flipping the wooden table."Ahhhh!"The lackey wasn't able to react and got butchered like a hedgehog by the glass pieces embedded in his body as he was standing so from head to toe, his body was pierced by the glass pieces."Hello, anybody home!" The voice came out from the window where a shadow of a man was sitting in the window looking very eerie with the darkness surrounding him."Who are you and why did you attack us!" Mr Nine-nine came out from hiding and stood in front of the window a little away from the man sitting on it and asked with a little apprehension."Code name; Mr Nine-nine, 90th Exterior Executive. Have done many illegal things for the organisation, 'Apotelesma'. Wanted man with many lives on your hand. It's enough or do you want me to read more of your achievements!" The man sitting in the window, who knows where he
********…..….." " Speech,' ' Thoughts,…..….."So what did you want to tell me that you called me out!" Erick asked Aashi not to mind her sniffing him like a pervert."Hehehe! Now that I recharge my masternim energy, let's get to business!" Aashi laughed and hid her drooling expression looking at her master's tantalising neck and feeling of hard muscles, she let go of his neck then took him and sat down on the chairs on the open terrace.Erick also sat beside her and enjoyed the cool breeze coming from the nearby not-so-artificial hill."Master, It's not me who wanted to talk to you but her. Willow, you can say what you want, Master is here!" Aashi said out loud to someone specific to hear.Then suddenly a gust of wind came from the hill beside the house and with leaves circling it, made a tiny fairy-like foggy appearance."Master!" The childish voice came from the foggy fairy like a greeting to Erick."Hmmn! But hey Aashi, did you call her by name!" Erick nodded in response then
............Aashi gently pried Yuyun from her embrace, whispering soothing words to the frightened child. "Alright Yuyun, let's go. We need to save those big sisters and brothers over there, okay?" She placed Yuyun on her back and quickly moved towards the cries.Erick and Aashi turned and sprinted towards the explosions. Aashi headed to where the injured were, while Erick ran towards the Malice Creatures attacking the elven guards.As Erick reached the first defense wall, he saw the extent of the destruction. The once strong barrier was now a smoldering ruin, and dark, twisted Malice Creatures were pouring through the breach."Boom... Boom... Ahhhh...!" The elves were fighting valiantly, but they were clearly outmatched. Their traditional weapons and combat techniques were ineffective against the Malice Creatures, which seemed impervious to normal attacks.Erick moved forward, energy leaking from his hands, blades of wind and fire shimmering with a strange, ethereal light. "Let's
............"Splash...!!""Whoa... how much energy did you put into that attack, Master?" Aashi asked in wonder, looking at the explosion and the water splashing over their shield."Not much, but enough to crush that annoying portal to bits," Erick replied, glancing down to ensure no traces of dark, foul energy remained. While the area was cleared, some fish-shaped Malice Creatures had been flung into the distance and were being erased slowly."Master, can you leave the rest to me?" Aashi asked, sensing her master's thoughts."Oh, okay. I'll take care of little Yuyun for you," Erick smiled and nodded before crouching down to pat the little girl on the head."He he... Big Brother!" Little Yuyun giggled, enjoying the affection."Okay then, watch how Big Sis handles those bad monsters!" Aashi said with a smile. She stepped onto the water's surface, running across it just like Erick, without causing any ripples."Boom... Bam...!!"Loud noises echoed as Aashi handled the Malice Creatures
............Aashi paused, listening intently. The sound came again, a weak cry. They immediately searched for the source and found what appeared to be the remains of a house, left in ruins after being devoured by the Malice Creatures. Beneath a pile of rubble, they lifted the debris and found a young girl, her body battered and bruised, but barely alive. Her eyes were shut, and her body quivered nonstop from all the pain.Erick immediately used his Origin arts to heal her and fed her a life-saving potion he carried in his storage. Before long, the little girl was cured, and her body returned to a healthy state, making Erick and Aashi sigh in relief.“It’s okay, you’re safe now,” Aashi said softly, lifting the girl gently.The girl coughed, opened her eyes, and whispered, “Thank you…”Erick knelt beside them, his expression softening. “You’re a brave one, aren’t you? Can you tell us if there are any others?” he asked, seeing the girl calming down.The girl shook her head weakly. “E
............“Oh, let me introduce my Master to you. He is the person who eliminated all the malice creatures in this area and the one who made me follow you guys.” Aashi smiled as she proudly introduced Erick to the kids and the Elder.The Elder and the children looked at Erick with awe and curiosity, their gratitude toward Aashi extending naturally to him.“Thank you, Master,” the Elder said, bowing deeply. “Your actions have saved our tribe's future.”Erick nodded, a small smile on his face. “I’m glad we could help. Your strength and resilience are admirable. Even though you lost so many of your tribesmen, you still didn't lose your will and continue to protect the children. It's commendable courage.”Aashi glanced at the children, noticing their worn clothes and tired expressions. “Do you have enough supplies and food? It looks like you’ve been struggling.”The Elder sighed. “We’ve been running low on food and we don’t even have a warm place to stay now. The malice creatures have
…………"This is not good; they are suffering from the bitter ice-cold!" The adult man observed them and realised they were suffering from an illness common among the tribe's people living in these cold plains.“I don’t have any medicine to cure them, damn it,” the man muttered, frustration evident in his voice as he watched their condition worsen.In normal times, he could easily help them with their cold, but now he couldn’t leave to search for medicine. Going out would be like signing his own death warrant if those creatures caught their scent.“What should I do? At this rate, these children won't be able to endure the cold and will succumb to it. No... no... I can't let that happen. These few children are all that's left of our ice tribe!” The elder felt a deep bitterness inside, trapped in a situation where every option seemed doomed.“Boom... Boom...!!”He heard loud noises and movement in the distance, and the tremors suggested that the Malice Creatures had picked up his trail.“
*******…………"Isn't this the east side, right?" Erick asked, feeling a little confused by the scene he was seeing.Erick and Aashi arrived after flying for hours, but they didn't see any forest there."Yes, it should be the east," Aashi nodded, having already calculated the direction when they flew here."So where is the forest that is supposed to be here, and what about the tribe residing here!" Erick muttered, looking at the distance with no forest or vegetation around, only the black, charcoal-like grounds were left."Master, I am sensing a foul stench from there!" Aashi's nose suddenly perked up, and she pointed in a certain direction, detecting an unusual foul scent."Hmm, this isn't supposed to be here!" Erick and Aashi flew in that direction and arrived there.It was a place that looked like a wrecked village or something, with a well made out of sand and mud mixed with blackish substances.Erick felt familiarity with the substances filling the well. After sending his energy d
********…..….." " Speech,' ' Thoughts,…..….."Thank you, Elder Ilona, for enlightening us. We are sincerely grateful for your invaluable assistance," Erick and Aashi expressed their gratitude with utmost respect, acknowledging the wisdom and guidance of the revered priestess.Elder Ilona, with a gentle shake of her head, dismissed any notion of inconvenience. A warm smile adorned her face as she conveyed her genuine pleasure in their company. "No, no trouble at all. In fact, I relish your presence. Do pay me another visit in the future," she suggested, her eyes gleaming with joy at the prospect of their return.Erick and Aashi nodded appreciatively, bidding Elder Ilona a proper farewell as they took their leave. Their gestures conveyed their gratitude and respect for the priestess, who had graciously shared her knowledge with them.As they emerged from Elder Ilona's abode, Elder Ryfang awaited their return, a patient figure in the fading light. His curiosity piqued, he inquired
********…..….." " Speech,' ' Thoughts,…..….."Welcome, young ones," she spoke in a voice that was both soft and melodic. "I have been expecting you."Erick and Aashi exchanged greetings before settling onto the cushions that had been laid out for them. The woman before them exuded a sense of accomplishment, as though she had achieved great things in her life and had the love and respect of nature itself."Thank you, Elder, for having us," Erick said, his voice full of gratitude and admiration.The Elder smiled warmly at the two guests before her. "So, what would you like to hear first? I will do my best to answer all of your queries, but first, let me introduce myself."Ilona, the guardian of the small wolf tribe and priestess who oversaw the ceremonies held in the clearing, introduced herself with grace and poise. Her name carried weight and respect, and Erick and Aashi felt a pleasant warmth to be in her presence."I am Erick Dahl, and this is my companion, Aashi," Erick intro
********…..….." " Speech,' ' Thoughts,…..….."It's….it's alright!" Chieftain hurriedly replied while hiding his fear and reverence coming from his heart."Ahem, let me introduce you, Chief Ulric, this young man is Master Erick Dahl and she is his companion, Madame Aashi. And you both already know our chief Ulric name and she is the mate of Chief Ulric, Madame Ayla." Elder Ryfang tried hard to ignore the earlier what he felt and maintained his usual smile while he introduced each other, Erick and Aashi to His chief and Madame Ayla.Erick and Aashi observed the now standing Chief Ulric and Madame Ayla in front of them.Chief Ulric is a tall, muscular man with a commanding presence. He has broad shoulders and a chiseled jawline, and his piercing blue eyes seem to see straight through to a person's soul. His hair is a deep shade of brown and falls in unruly waves to his shoulders, and his beard is thick and well-groomed. Ulric also has wolf-like features, including pointed ears and
