Whiles this was happening, on Earth, a man was running for his life. He did not know why but he had been seeing the same white truck since killing a boy that was a nuisance to him and his business. He thought that he was being followed.
This man was Danny. He could not find his son anywhere and the three guards that had run away. He needed to get to his hideout in case anyone traced the shots that were fired back to him.
He had to cross the street to finally reach the neighborhood that he controlled and feel safe again.
He looked left and right then crossed.
Out of nowhere, a white truck appeared with its headlight brightened and at full speed. When he looked at the headlights, he felt his soul crying.
That day was the last time anyone had seen him as the police could not identify the person that the mincemeat that was sprayed all over that road was from.
Like he had been waiting for that one last thing on earth to happen, Akarn was born into Eldian while his mind raced as he never thought he would feel everything when being born.
'Damn! That was a unique experience, to say the least.'
He thought as he felt someone grab him and wrap a cloth around his body. After a few seconds, he tried to open his eyes, but he could not see properly as they adjusted.
'Wahahahaha! I am here you fuckers! Let the hunt begin.'
He had his evil laugh again, ready to take the world on. He had forgotten that he was just a baby and could do nothing when he was just seconds old.
'Shit, almost forgot that I am a baby. Let's see, so what's happening.'
He thought as his eyes came to.
'Ok, a woman is holding me... Oh and hey... I guess that is my mother over there on the bed. Damn, she looks hot... Cough, cough... I mean beautiful.'
Arkan could not help himself.
'Oh, those ears, no wonder she looks this beautiful. There can only be one beauty of the fantasy world that everyone goes crazy over. She must be an elf. So I have elf blood, damn. That's cool. So the others... let's see.'
He thought as his eyes dotted around the room while the people there took a good look at him.
'Man, these people are big and tall. Even the maids look like warriors. Oh, who is this, this big scary man is that my father? Oi, oi, oi, he looks like someone that not even a dragon would want to mess with and the guy next to him looks scary too. They look like clean cavemen... no, clean warriors... no, no, no…. this look? I have heard it described in a web novel I read. Barbarians?'
Arkan thought as his mind spun.
'So, I might be half elf and half Barbarian... Wahahahaha, now that's a unique combination. Wait, why are they arguing?'
Arkan thought as the mood in the room grew colder after they took him out of the cloth and showed him to his mother but not letting her touch him.
'Huh? What is happening? Wait, who is this creepy man of a goblin that just came into the room with his dark robe, a walking stick, and a necklace made out of bones? He looks too old and where are his teeth?'
Arkan got a feeling that something was not right. His intuition was already in high gear.
The goblin look-alike took him from one of the maids and then looked at him all over. After a while, he then shook his head.
'This goblin ass! Why is he shaking his head for? I see, you have never seen someone as handsome as me huh? or are they looking at my third leg? I know I am gifted guys, come on now. Wait, why is my father looking disappointed and my mother crying?'
Arkan thought as the goblin man started to walk out of the room followed by his father and the other scary man.
'Wait, something is wrong... oh shit! I am a baby. A baby cries when it is born, right?'
As soon as that thought came into his mind, he started to cry like he had never before. The thing is, he did not know how to cry and all he did was scream but he thought that at that point a baby's scream was the same as crying.
The goblin man just looked at him and continued to walk.
Soon, they were outside of the castle and at the back of it where it looked over the dark endless clouds. As they walked further and neared the edge, Arkan screamed his baby lungs out as panic started to get the better of him.
'What the hell is going on?'
He did not know but by how things were going it was clear that it was not something good. As they approached the edge he remembered Oizys and him telling him about his spark
'Shit, am I this unfortunate?'
He thought as they reached the edge, only for the goblin man to reach his arms out while holding him to take one last good look at him. As he did, he got to look at his father one last time.
Seeing the motionless eyes that he was looking at him with as he stood there allowing his son to be thrown away like he meant nothing to him made his blood boil.
All the misfortune of his past life and now this one which he was just born a few minutes ago came crashing through, leaving nothing but pure hatred and anger in its wake.
As the goblin look-alike was about to let go of him after saying something, his eyes glowed red.
Without warning and Arkan not knowing how it happened, the goblin man's head was blown clean off.
Arkan had killed his first person just minutes after being born.
He started to fall as the man went limp after losing a head out of the blue.
The last thing he saw was the shock in his father's and the other man's eyes then he fell into the dark clouds below.
'Fuck this world and everyone in it.'
Those were the last words he thought right before his world went blank and dark for the third time.
In the sea of dark clouds, as it rained the raindrops passed through the layer of dark clouds and then onto the land beneath and making the ground muddy. As the raindrops passed through the clouds, their quality changed.They went from being transparent to having a dark tinge that fell on a dark forest where its trees, land, and water were dark and sickly. The land was eerie and forbidding. If one took a glance at it, one would think that nothing lived there.That was until you took a closer look and listened to the surroundings while letting the goosebumps travel throughout your body as you realized that the land was full of life. Well, of life that did not belong anywhere else in the world.The place was dark but the strange part was that the same clouds that covered the vast land had a tint of a dark purple glow when it was night, allowing little light for those who could not see in the dark.In day time some of the sun's light would pass through, showing that the sea of dark cloud
In the castle, before Arkan was born into Eldian, the king was getting bored of ruling a kingdom. All he wanted to do was go on a hunt and maybe find a way to pass this bottleneck that he seemed to not get over.He had been stuck in the same circle of power for far too long. Even the cultivation method that he had received from his inheritance that made him soar through the circles of power in a record amount of time had said that he would reach this point. Just following the cultivation technique was not going to get him through the next stage from here on.He set on his throne and drank. It seemed that his wife was about to give birth to his first child. When she came to him, he never knew why he was so taken by her.She was of a different race and one that they had hunted down in the past and kept as slaves before the new world.While they still had slaves, unlike other kingdoms, they did not invade others as they were just that far away from civilization and still kept the slaves
Arkan opened his eyes and the first thing he saw was blue.'What the? Did I die again?'He asked himself as he tried to move but could not. It was hard to move his head as he felt tired like he desperately needed to go back to sleep.'Ok, I am tired of this utter world bull shit! Wait, if I died then that means I did not fulfill Oizys request.'He did not know how to fill about that. He had made a deal with the old Guardian and that means he had given his word.He did not know what to be sadder about. The fact that he had really reincarnated in another world and died just minutes after being born in it or the fact that he failed what Oizys had asked of him.It was something strange. He did not know why he felt sad for not fulfilling his mission and then it hit him.They had only met for a short while but Oizys felt much more like a father that he never had in that short space of time than anyone had in his life.Then he remembered those eyes. The eyes of someone who was his biological
The hooded man made up his mind. He looked at the cliff and with no hesitation, he leaped off the ground and started to climb it.In no time he had made it to the barrier that was the sea of dark clouds. He still did not hesitate as he climbed and went passed them.As he did, the clouds hung on to him as they penetrated his body with his defenses not working against them at all.They made it into his body but he did not struggle. Unfortunately, since he was still wearing his hooded armor, you still could not make out what effect they had on him if any.He broke through them and reaching the cliff's surface was now child's play to someone like him.When he reached the top, a view of the capital from afar was in front of him. He was above a great forest that stretched for as far as his eyes could see to the east of him.On the north was the sea of dark clouds that had rolling hills as high as skyscrapers keeping it at bay. That was where he was standing.To his west was the capital of t
The three could not help themselves as they sized the hooded man up and down.Two of them were middle-aged males. The one who had spotted him looked skinnier than the other who looked like all he knew was fighting and never read a book in his life. The last was a woman wearing leather armor.They were all wearing impressive armor with the men carrying long swords and the woman a bow and a short sword. It was the woman who spoke next."He doesn't have his defensive shield up. Don't you remember your training from the guild? Some who do not put up their defensive shield are powerful bastards that do not want to show how strong they are, with some of those being crazy maniacs who kill anything that comes close to them for the fun of it while for some it's for their cultivation."She said.The person who first spotted the hooded man sized him up again and could not help but smile wildly even more."And some are weak fools who act strong to keep good guys like us from our meals."He said a
Guards ran to the scene and got there within seconds.They were wearing dark grey leather armor and all of them had different kinds of weapons on them. You could tell by just looking at them that their armor and weapons were of high quality.They all had the badge of a tall man slaying a dragon on their chest.After reaching the area, one of them who had arrived faster than the others signals them to stop. He knew who the armor of the dead bodies belonged to and had wanted to kill them himself, but he was a guard of the wall which came with certain restrictions.They waited for the hooded man to finish and after he left without them doing anything to him or questioning him, they took the bodies and removed any sign of a battle or blood on the road.It was like nothing had happened.'So, outside the walls, the rules are still the same. Do not kill those in a lower circle of power than yours unless provoked while those who are weaker can challenge and kill those who are in a higher circ
Draka walked down the street, leaving the busy storefronts, markets, and restaurants and going down an alleyway that lead to the back streets of the busy town.Just like in any city, there was an underground where only those who braved danger could go.After walking for a while and thinking that he was lost, he rounded a corner and went into a dark alleyway, and finally found the store that he was looking for.It had a sign written 'Snake Eyes' and a symbol next to it with two snake-like eyes looking straight at him like they were alive.He went inside and was hit with a foul smell like someone had been boiling a dead dog that had been rooting outside for some days. It only lasted a second as he come through the door.It was like his whole body had phased through something jelly-like and he remembered that feeling from all the other times he had come there.He found a sexy ordinary-looking woman wearing no armor but a one-piece black pencil dress. Draka looked at her and saw through h
Her eyes sparkled with curiosity as she heard his words. It seemed that this man had come to relieve her from the boredom she had grown accustomed to in her small shop.She took the beaker and a clear glass that had an enneagram which is a nine-pointed star from under her countertop. In the middle of it was a circle and there were writings in an ancient language written on it and on its points were runes.If you looked closer or had sharp eyes like Draka, you would see that the enneagram was not made using lines, but words, the words written in the language of the Primal World with each one having its meaning and every last one of them interlocking with one another.The runes were the same except for the ancient language that was in the middle of the enneagram.Draka looked at the artifact and could not help but wish he had one of his own for his experiments, but they were hard if almost impossible to get one's hands on one.She poured the blood onto the glass and then took a tube tha
