Mr. Stark was still walking ahead when he saw yet another horde of zombies coming his direction. They were walking slowly but when they saw him they began running very fast."Time to crack some knuckles," he said as he clenched his fists. It had been an hour since he had been walking. All through then he didn't come across a single zombie. Because of that he started feeling bored.The zombies leaped towards him, attacking him furiously. It seemed humans rarely came to the red city so they were left very hungry with no human flesh to eat.Mr. Stark stiffened his muscles before delivering powerful punches to the heads of the zombies, causing them to explode. His combat speed was so high that he was able to withdraw his hand before the zombies' heads would even explode. It was something average humans couldn't achieve.A zombie dived high into the air and made to crash onto him but he was faster. He lowered his center of gravity, building up strength into his legs before kicking off the
"So what's this place? What is this Realm of Degradation?" Jackson asked as he stared at Uriel.Uriel observed Jackson and Mr. Stark for some minutes before saying, "I'm gonna tell you the truth but I'm gonna filter out some things. It's good for all of us."Would it really be the truth if you're filtering things out? Jackson complained inwardly as he folded his arms to his chest."After collectively defeating Abyss, the two most powerful beings in the cosmos decided to prevent Abyss from having consuming the cosmos like it had done before," Uriel said. "One of them which was the Primordial Wolf created a realm with his and the Blood of Cosmos' essences. This essences served as powerful forces which fueled the realm, making it serve as an efficient barrier between the Cosmos and Abyss."But along the line these two entities fought each other, killing themselves in the process. Because of this their essences in the realm were significantly weakened and so Abyss was able to seep into th
Although several Cursed had come to help in fighting the Monsters which Marcus had created, they were not still enough as the Abyss Cult members and Crimsones had come into the fight as well. It was a bloody battle, both sides dying greatly.Somewhere away from all the bloody mess stood Dracula with a silver cup in his right hand which contained blood. The place was blood red, the entire sky blanketed in pure darkness. Path five Cursed no longer had any weakness so silver was no longer a problem to him."The Abyss Cult has finally completed the deal we made," he said as he took out an eye from his left pocket. It was blood red and had this powerful aura emanating from it. Just touching it was filling him with so much tremendous power that he felt he couldn't handle.In return for helping the Abyss Cult usher in the apocalypse, Dracula would help them with his Crimsone force which had grown over the past decades. He had accepted and in return they had helped him kill a Path six Crimson
The Specter immediately released different Spirits out of his body, causing them to fly towards Bloody Mary who was still unfazed after seeing a Path four Cursed of the Horror Cursed type."You think this is all I got?" Bloody Mary scoffed, her eyes becoming colder as she sized up the approaching Spirits.Suddenly her intangible body became corporeal, black veins pulping all over her body. Her aura instantly became more horrifying as an oppressive aura seemed to spread throughout the whole place, causing the Spirits to shriek as they exploded into nothing. Despite them being the same Cursed Path as Bloody Mary, they couldn't even defend against the attack."Impossible," the Specter's expression became horrified as he involuntarily took two steps back. "Those Spirits were very powerful!"Bloody Mary didn't say anything as the black veins within her began wriggling, black threads spinning out of her body. They filled up the whole city, trapping the Specter and Miss Pinmaker who now had
A few moments ago Daniel and his friend, Orpheus alongside Caroline had been trying to stop Mistress from completing the main ritual but now he had found himself at moving at insane speeds through pure whiteness. He couldn't tell if it was his eyes or the place where he was traversing through was made up of pure whiteness but whatever feeling he got, it wasn't pleasant. Most times he would feel his skin tearing, blood oozing out like a stream of water. The pain that came with it, although normal humans couldn't endure it, he could endure it without twisting his face.For what seemed like hours Daniel kept on being propelled through the pure whiteness till finally everything became dark and very silent, including his heartbeat.Am I dead? he thought within himself as he tried using the blood ability Bloody Mary had gifted him. He felt a liquid all over his body and confirmed that he could still use the ability. But I still don't know if I'm still alive.Soon the blackness which filled
"Hahahahaha!" Marcus laughed hysterically as he raised Smith into the air with his magic, suspending him there.Seeing this Sexy Peacock immediately raised her hands into the air, several spirits and ghosts appearing around the whole place."So weak!" Marcus said as he created a holy light to banish all the spirits and ghosts, his laughter becoming more prominent as he caused Smith's throat to contrite. The latter grabbed his neck, unable to mouth any spell to make him escape the predicament.Sexy Peacock who had jumped into a doorway after summoning the spirits and ghosts immediately came out from behind Marcus, reaching her left hand to grab his hair.I pray this works, she said inwardly as she summoned another spiritual creature from behind her to counter whatever attack Marcus would bring."So foolish!" Marcus said as he turned his head to look at Sexy Peacock and with just a single thought she was sent crashing into a vehicle, her backbone breaking instantly.Cough! Cough!She co
Daniel shrugged the names off his mind and then said, "I dunno but I'm not a Wizard, Witch or Horror who are good at tricks such as teleportation. Can you help me get out of here?"Crimson turned to look at Furs before saying, "There are not many we would help get out of here. You're a very lucky personality for us to even leave you alive.""You Crimsones love boasting," Daniel muttered to himself as he felt yet another gaze land on him. It was from Furs."I can perceive you have a very special body," Furs said. "Not only have you being gazed upon by Cassio but you've also being seeded by Abyss. Very special indeed."Why are you talking like a Wizard? Daniel asked inwardly. You're leaving me confused. It wasn't as if he didn't know all these things but the thing was, he didn't get where Furs was heading to with the statement."I don't understand you at all," Daniel said bluntly. Since he became a Lycanthrope he had being very bold and straightforward with his speaking. He had no time
"Pathetic!" was the word that escaped Mistress' mouth as she raised her hands and casted a spell.It was at that time everyone felt a great pressure around them. Although the expressions of Bloody Mary, Unknown and Caroline remained blank they could feel what was coming for them."She's summoning the blood moon!" Sexy Peacock yelled, alerting the others. As a Scarlet Eye she knew almost everything about Witches and their Cursed Paths.As a Blood Witch Mistress had the ability to summon the blood moon which would empower her, increasing her spells tremendously. With the presence of the blood moon a doorway between the physical and spiritual world would be opened, connecting the worlds together. This would allow different types of spiritual creatures to be at their disposal. She would be almost as good as Specters in summoning spirits and souls.Instantly the bright sky turned red as the clouds began drifting away, plunging all seven continents of the world into redness. It was as if al
After meal Mrs. Stark cleared the table and immediately rejoined her husband and child in the dining room. They had finished eaten but couldn't stand due to their stomachs being overly full so they sat on their chairs and waited for time to pass so that they would be able to get up again.Mr. Stark stared at his loving wife and son for some moments, wondering whether he should tell them what he had in his mind now or later. They should be able to understand me, won't they?"What's on your mind, Darling?" Mrs. Stark asked. She had noticed her husband's worried look. They had been out of all their troubles so what was there to fuss about?"Actually, I wanted to tell you this earlier," Mr. Stark said to them, "but I didn't know how to go about it."Don't tell me, Daniel thought inwardly as he glanced at his mother. Don't tell me he's gonna go on another adventure. This was exactly the same words he used last year when he went on the adventure to the Abyssal Zone. Now he's using those sam
Daniel woke up feeling very energized and positive. Why shouldn't he? He had been through several frenziedly situations, tiring himself out both mentally and physically. Now that he could finally find rest why shouldn't he be happy about that? Only a bunch of masochist would yearn for more harmful situations like that.Man, it's been such a hectic year, Daniel thought to himself as he yawned loudly as stretched his arms and legs. The shirt he was wearing rose up slightly above his tummy, revealing well chiseled abdominal muscles which could only belong to a pro gymnast."Finally, everything has returned normal," he muttered to himself and turned around only to lie face-to-face with Bloody Mary who was staring at him with her red eyes."..."Daniel became blank. Whatever had happened last night was gone and this was a new day. He couldn't count himself a lucky person today and try seeing the Specter as some lover. It was practically impractical and disregarding of a high born Specter!
That night Daniel realized the meaning of being late. Before he was even in the Curious Mythologists group chat all the other six or so members were already there, chatting away. There were so many messages that he reckoned to be at least a hundred of them. He took his time to read the previous messages to catch up with the others.Of course the others could see that the legendary 16-year old Wolfman who had saved the world using Furs' powers was here. Crying God was the first to type as usual:"Hey, weakling. Never knew you were such a casual latecomer and snubber.""What's your business with him being late?" Crimson Moon typed straight away. He felt it was his duty to thrash talk Daniel and as a good citizen, he wouldn't let others do his job. He wasn't even afraid that Crying God was a Path four, Combat Magician."You wanna know my business with him? How about you kowtow to me and call me daddy!" Crying God enjoyed dissing. He didn't even care about his reputation as one of the pow
That night was a very peaceful and quiet night. After the near death experience everyone had, it was a miracle to see that the whole world had survived the apocalypse that would have killed everyone.Standing in front of a mirror in her room was Mary Silver. The frames of the mirror were made of real solid silver, an exquisite and expensive design running across them. Everything in the room had this taste of silver on them. Silver. Yes, it was a symbol of the Silver family.Staring at her reflection Mary couldn't help but narrow her green eyes as she turned around, walking towards her bed with elegance. She was dressed in a silver colour night dress, her red hair tied into a pony tail with a silvery ribbon.Reaching her hand to the large tablet on her bed, she immediately logged in facebook and clicked on the Curious Mythologists tab on the message section."Finally we're gonna have one of the most important discussions in this group chat," she said, "a discussion to really transform
There was silence as Orpheus and his uncle, Lazarus went through the portal. They could even hear blood pulsing through their veins. Orpheus even began feeling nauseous about the whole thing. It reminded him of the time with the mysterious Cassio—the time when they were being dragged into some whiteness.Soon the blue in his eyes cleared and now they were standing in some cyberpunk city. It was filled with so much skyscrapers which reached into the sky, several spiraling roads hovering in the air around the skyscrapers. Drones, flying cars and robots could be seen across everywhere as the zoomed at supersonic speeds."What the..." Orpheus was beyond fascinated as he stared at the wonder before him."This is one of the planets your companies are located in," Lazarus explained. "It's inhabited by robots and cyborgs. We're the only complete organic people around. Even animals here are robots or cyborgs. None of them are complete."Orpheus watched as a drone suddenly landed close to him,
Daniel felt a blinding light engulf him and Orpheus, sucking them from the Center of the Omniverse. He closed his eyes, feeling the mysterious energy which ran through him. Obviously it came from the Center of the Omniverse, the origin of all stories within the Omniverse. He didn't know how long he was engulfed in the light but he knew a long time had past, a really long time had passed.I wonder how Orpheus is doing, Daniel thought within himself. This Crimsone who had harboured some hatred towards him had turned out to be the most reliable friend he had. Both of them had even fought side-by-side, escaping death several time. If what Cassio had told him was true—about the entire Omniverse being his dream and his entire life being a story in the Omniverse—did it mean he and Orpheus were the two main protagonists of their story?He was still thinking when he felt the light fading around him, his eyelids quivering as they opened gradually.~Five hours had passed but no one had left. Th
Selene and Mrs. Stark looked around for some time before asking at the same time, "Where's Daniel?"Both of them had the same expression that it made the other Curious Mythologists to wonder what kind of relationship Selene shared with Daniel. As for Mrs. Stark they had seen that she was Daniel's mother after seeing the little family reunion. But for Selene what was she to Daniel to show such genuine concern that only mothers would show? Except of course Selene was Daniel's sister. But then there was resemblance or whatsoever. Daniel had a brown hair and brown eyes while Selene had a red hair and pair of red charming eyes. They didn't even resemble the slightest bit.Evil Buddha who knew many things about Daniel and Selene wanted to clarify things but then he chose to keep quiet."We saw him, his dad, a Crimsone and some Doppelganger kid go off while fighting Abyss," Crying God was the one who replied. "They seemed to be possessed by higher existences.""They went off?" Mrs. Stark was
Crack!A crack sound emanated throughout the whole space as the wall which Daniel had erected around the entire creation had cracked and nothingness was seeping through."We have to do something now!" he yelled as the reality dawned on him. If they were touched by the nothingness they would be gone instantly. The true form of Abyss was way more powerful than them.Orpheus raised his hands, infinite streams of blood shooting out all over the place. It formed a thick river of blood which engulfed the both of them, surrounding the entirety of creation.Daniel pressed his enormous hands together, countless furs appearing all over the river of blood. When these two met they formed a blinding glow and then the river of blood began transforming into smaller balls of blood covered with furs, swirling in the air around Daniel and Orpheus."So this is the process Crimson and Furs went through to create the Realm of Degradation?" Orpheus asked, the power taking a toll on him. He couldn't last an
"You can't stop the apocalypse!" Abyss yelled as he caused the nothingness to spread out around him once more. This time it wasn't slow but going at the speed of instant teleportation.The others were too slow to realize what was happening. Only Crimson who was also the embodiment of speed could observe the speed at which the nothingness was expanding.The others couldn't help but watch as their bodies were enveloped by nothingness. They could all feel it that Abyss had gotten stronger and if care wasn't taken the bodies of their vessels would disintegrate, becoming nothing. If that happened then this fight would become meaningless, Abyss winning again. They all tried using their powers to temporarily nullify the nothingness around them but it wasn't enough.Furs kept on punching around him, creating absolute strikes which tore away the nothingness around him. Crimson who was the embodiment of speed would always vibrate his body at immeasurable speed, existing on different vibrational
