(Outside The Artifact) “Senior brother!” “I know, let’s find out what they want first,” Ja El said. “Maybe they are lost,” “Ten kings lost, I doubt that senior brother,” Three people, two men and one woman, stood in the air staring at the flight artifact in front of them. From it they could detect the presence of ten king level beings who showed no sign of hiding their aura. Behind them were sixteen people who waited for their orders. All at the pseudo king realm. “Junior brother,” “Understood,” the man at the middle said and moved forward. “Greetings visitors, I am the sect master of this sect. I want to know your business here,” he said with a loud voice. No reply came, only two people stepped out. A man and a black raccoon. “A beast king,” the sect master thought. “I don’t think we need this kind of welcoming,” a voice sounded as a man and woman stepped out. “Bastard! You are alive,” The woman behind the sect master yelled and flew towards him
~In Huno’s Soul Space~ “Hey, you do know she’s not Lu…” “I know, but I had accepted her as half my master. If I can’t revenge her no one will,” Huno interrupted Cleo. “Well, if you say so. But we know you are at the brick of collapsing,” “Yeah, thanks for calming my mind,” “Someone’s talking to you,” Kiri said. … “Huno!” Elta yelled. “Huh? What’s wrong?” Huno blinked several times as he came back to his senses. “Answer my quest… tion,” Elta’s mouth dropped open as a huge shadow cast over them, completely blocking the sunlight. She wasn’t the only one who was surprised. The others rushed to the entrance to see what was above them. “Someone tell spider to fly in,” Huno ordered and covered Elta’s mouth. “No need for that sir,” Finit voice sounded. A huge ring like object flew down from the spaceship until the artifact was in between it. A blue light was cast on the artifact after which the ring flew back to the spaceship. “This… is it from Da Kai?
The enemy had fired first this time. Huno watched as the defensive array flickered. It was at the brink of collapsing. “Understood sir,” Another white array appeared above his palm. This time it was a diamond shaped array. Outside a big diamond shaped array appeared behind the circular one. “Ending it in one strike,” Finit said. The two rotated at a terrifying speed before blasting out. All the array in the control room dimmed and all the images disappeared. The battleship fell down. It lost all power. After a while it rose and all the array shone and the images reappeared. Meanwhile the blast fired had destroyed the array and hit the enemies battle ship causing a big explosion. “It is done sir. And I was able to save sixty two percent,” “Let it rain. I want you to make sure everyone in the city is dead,” Huno ordered. “Not even a fly should be found,” “Understood sir,” … While the battleship rained down attacks on the city, Finit stood beside Huno, who stared at
“Oh the engine room is below the control room. We’ll check that later,” Huno said as they entered another room. “These are?” “Puppets sir. For those that wish to learn puppetry. There’s a library also,” “Was your old master a jack of all trades?” “Oh no. Most of all these were compiled by his subordinate. Though there were a lot he had acquired with his wealth,” “Right where is the treasury room?” “Permit me to tell you that when we are alone. Only the lord of the ship and the ones he place in charge are entitled to know,” Huno turned back and looked at those following him. The crowd had really dropped. “Where’s Elta?” he thought. Those with him were Mirar, Liu Sha, Hidi, Reva (Hidi’s disciple) who held on to Hidi, Tiya, Deere, Bal Si who led some of the eagle clan, Aro who led a few of the villagers and the bee beast queen. Only a few of the villagers and eagle clan followed. A lot had stopped in one room or another along the way. “Finit, I’m calling it a day.
“Really?” She knew he was playing but she was happy to hear what he had said. He would chase her to the end of the world. Even though he may have meant it as a friend, it still made her happy. So she had to confirm it. And albeit it had just been one or two minutes since she asked, her heart skipped several beats. “Yes, I would. Kuhum,” He replied and coughed, after which he shifted back a little. She frowned slightly because of his action, somewhat disappointed. “Then I’m leaving,” “What?” She stood up to leave but Huno quickly grabbed her by the hand. “Why?” “I want you to chase me. I want to experience how it feels,” she giggled. Huno pulled her close and gave her a big hug. “Don’t leave me, please” Elta felt the deep sorrow in voice. It was like that of someone who was lonely. “It’s alright, I’m just kidding I won’t leave,” she said while patting his back. Huno disengaged from the hug and looked at her. “You promise, right? don’t you go back on y
Huno turned to the floating rings and collected ten randomly. “The management team will handle the rest. Finit take whatever you need from the treasury to return this ship back to hundred percent,” The hundreds of rings flew back to Hidi. “That would be impossible sir. I had checked, I can only recover about thirty percent power. That’s a total of ninety two percent,” “Why is that?” “We lack enough stor ores,” Huno frowned. “Stor ores are ores that contain a large amount of energy in them. Though they can not be used for cultivation because Stor energy reacts with blood,” “That means, living beings can’t touch it,” “Not exactly, it has no harm to the skin,” “Do you think we can find it here?” “Possible but highly unlikely,” “Well, ninety two percent is a lot,” Huno replied and sat on his chair. The chair rotated and faced Ying. “In times of war consider the possibility of peace and in time of peace consider the possibility of war. This is a popular saying whe
~A long while later~ “Hey, what do you think?” Elta asked as she stepped out of the bathroom. She turned slowly, showcasing the red phoenix dress to Huno. It was long and it’s red color made it look like the dress was on fire. Huno looked at her for a while before turning back to what he was doing. “The dress is okay,” Huno said and Elta pouted. “But you make it look lovely,” He looked at her with a smile and winked. Elta blushed slightly and asked. “What are you doing?” “Just learning how to control the ship. It’s quite easy,” Huno replied. Immediately a layer of array blocked all the aqua ore on the ceiling causing the room to go dark. “It’s much easier than expected,” he added as the array dimmed and room became lit. “That’s nice, I’m going to try the others,” Elta said happily and entered the bathroom. … “How’s this?” “Beautiful,” “And this?” “Extraordinary,” “Hmm,” “What?” “This?” “Amazing and gorgeous,” “Hi?” “Wow, if goddesses were rea
“It’s good having her there. There’s an array that connects the top floor kitchen to it. So having a king there is good,” “Finally concerning the artifact for the beasts. I plan on starting after the construction,” “Why?” “That is a tough task sir, making a defensive artifact that can increase in size to about ninety to hundred feet will be difficult. As it requires measurements, calculations, manual labor, time and knowledge,” Hidi replied. “Though I can make king grade artifact I am still lacking in knowledge. And I plan to acquire knowledge while taking care of acquiring the pills and pill materials,” “Oh, I understand. Proceed,” “Thank you sir. Finit has arrived I will take my leave,” Huno turned and found Finit flying over from the distance. He nodded at Hidi and waited for Finit to arrive. “Sir,” “How’s the task coming about,” “So far only the nearest king’s men have arrived. They’ve already started clearing the debris and corpses. I’m already acquiring
Huno appeared inside a room. In it Sarai who sat beside an unconscious Wu Yi, held a napkin. With it she wiped Wu Yi’s body. His heart ached at the sight.“Mom,” Huno called out and Sarai paused. When she looked behind, her eyes widened. Tears flowed down her eyes and weak sobs escaped her. Huno walked up to her and embraced.“You are back… I’m… I’m so sorry…”“It’s not your fault mom,” Huno interrupted. “It’s not your fault.”“Ah!” she cried her heart out in his arm.“It’s alright, everything is gonna be okay,” said Huno, embracing her more.“But Yi’er won’t wake up. The alchemist said there’s nothing they can do,” she said gripping his shirt. “I’m sorry.”“There’s something I can do, so relax mom. Yi’er is going to wake up,” Huno assured her. “I’m here now. Everything is going to be alright.”“There’s something you can do?” Sarai asked with tears still running down.“Yes.” Huno nodded. He disengaged himself from her. “Give me a second,” he added.Sarai nodded and watched him move to
“Dear, dear,” said Lee Wei who arrived behind her. He patted her shoulders and added. “She’s alive and that’s all that matters.”Xue Li faced him and nodded. Her embrace loosen a bit. Luna pulled out and flashed her a bright smile. “You are right husband,” Xue Li said.“Elder brother Wei, Sis Li, brother Chiro, I missed you all,” one of the ladies called out. Luna gave way for her and she hugged Xue Li.“You are… Saint?” Xue Li asked.“Yes,” the lady nodded. “Husband, brought me a body.”“Husband!” Chiro coughed. He and everyone else turned to Huno with questions written on their faces.Lili eyes twitched while she faced him. Lin Si cleared her throat while Lu Yal and Lu Yan stared confused.“A lot happened, we’ll explain,” Luna said getting everyone’s attention. “But first…”She bowed to Lin Si, hands cupped. “Greetings second mom,” she said.Lin Si looked at her. “I’m Luna, Huno’s first wife and I pay my respect,” Luna said.“Raise your head…”“Not yet mom,” Luna interrupted. “I kno
Without a word she shot forward. No one among them saw where she went next. She moved faster than anything they’ve ever seen.“Huh?”“Ah!”With every gasp, every scream, a head flew or a body got divided into two. People lost their life before they even realized it. Lin Si watched the scene in awe. Something within her ignited. She couldn’t explain it nor could she describe it. However, she knew she had to meet the real Lin Si quick. The onslaught before her made her blood boil.She turned to Luyi and said. “Tell her I need to get back to my main body. It’s urgent.”“Huh? Yes ma’am,” Luyi said and yelled, “mom, madam needs to get to her real body.”Fuyi halted before a man, her sword stopping inches away from his neck. He sighed quietly as she turned to Luyi’s direction. The man tried to leave quietly, but she swung her hand, uprooting his life in a slash. She took a deep breath and sighed before she flew towards Lin Si. The orders of Huno’s mother came before her desire to kill.***
***“Is there any need to continue this pointless war, Lin Si?” a man roared while striking the sword in his hand. His torn garment had blood stains on it from the ugly wounds he had all over his body. He looked terrible but his opponent looked worse. “Surrender, and your city will remain intact, I promise.”The woman he spoke to, Lin Si, turned a deaf ear to his words. She couldn’t believe him, not in a million years. Lin Si had only one intention, kill him and end this war.She let out a loud shriek and transformed to an eagle. Flames rushed out of her mouth at him.“You are a monster race,” he frowned as he blocked the flames. His frown grew intense when he found three Lin Si staring at him. “You think two fakes will prevent me from pinpointing you.”He struck at the Lin Si to the left. However, she dodged while the others attacked.“Tch,” the man tsk. “How come the attacks of the fakes are real?” he thought.He could barely block their combined attacks. “It’s as if they can all re
He disengaged, stared at her and smiled. She had a black and white dress on, her hair flawlessly white and eyes blue just as his own.Huno kissed her lips, they were as soft as he remembered. Well, he couldn’t really remember how soft they used to feel.“How’s junior sister Saint?” Luna asked him.“She’s possessing the body I brought,” he replied her with a smile, then took her hand. “Let’s go see.”Their surroundings changed, they had returned to the house. The duo watched quietly and made sure they did not interrupt her.“Huno,” Shinari’s voice sounded in his head.“Huh?”“Are you close to Melina’s body?” she asked him.“Yeah why?”“Open a portal towards it,” she instructed him.“Is something wrong?”“Who are you talking to?” Luna asked.“Shinari, the world spirit of my world in Cosmo,” Huno replied.“Nothing is wrong, just do it,” Shinari replied.“Alright.”A portal appeared before him and Luna. Nearly instantaneously, a green light shot out of it and entered the body on the floor
“Everyone is gone to where?” Huno frowned.“To the Dou realm, Lin Si took them away,” Saint said.“Everyone left you?” Huno’s frown turned to a sad face.“No, I kicked them out. They didn’t want to go,” Saint replied. “It’s not their fault I’m stuck here. I’ve made peace with fate. Everyone is meant to leave me one day.”“Not if I have something to say about it,” Huno said. “I brought a body for you… why are you laughing?”“Come on Huno, you think in all my years alive, I haven’t tried possessing a body?” Saint asked.“Oh, it didn’t work?”“I tried one thousand one hundred and sixty seven times. Every time the body I tried to possess disintegrated before I got to complete the process,” Saint replied with a sigh.“Hmm, it wouldn’t hurt to try again,” Huno said with an encouraging smile.“Alright.” Saint rolled her eyes at him then asked. “Where’s the body?”Huno stretched his hand out and a body appeared on it. With it’s appearance came a terrifying aura. Huno felt his body go numb. Th
~Two Days Later~~BOOM!!!~ The dark sky roared and expressed its anger. Milto, the one who had caused its rage, sat quietly underneath, preparing to face it. Afar off to the south, watching him were the Melings and several others. To the east were a group of creatures he knew not off and to the west were more creatures. Unbeknown to him, Huno appeared in the Melings camp.“Husband,” Bing Ya called out. He kissed her forehead and turned to Elta, who smiled at him. He returned the smile and gave her a kiss on her forehead.“Welcome,” “Is everyone here?” Huno asked.“Just the pseudo kings and above,” Elta replied. “Okay. Greetings third mom,”“Oh, you finally noticed me,” Bing Yu said with a smile. “I’m sorry,”“It’s alright. Who are they by the way?” Bing Yu tilted her head towards the creatures afar off. “Subordinates of a few friends. They were brought to watch,”“I see,” “Allow me to step away for a while,” Huno said.“Okay,” “Ladies, I’ll be
~A Few Weeks Later~ “Mhm, Mhmm,”“You are up?” Luna’s voice sounded. Huno turned to her and closed his eyes while muttering. “Heaven and earth release,” His body shone slightly, and his realm dropped slowly. “Thank you,”“For?” “Caring about Elta and Bing Ya, and taking the time to worry about their insecurities,” Luna’s eyes widened and shone like a touch. “You heard us that day!” “Yeah. I woke up and slept back several times. The recoil of borrowing that power took a toil on me. I might need to sleep for a few weeks. My muscles are still a bit strained,”“Pease forgive me, I didn’t mean to hide…” “I have no concerns of your past sweetie. I care for our present and our future,”“But… I…” “You don’t have to worry sweetie, I’m not angry. And if there’s anything you feel I should know, or there’s any problem we need to work on, you can let me know when you are ready,”“Thanks,” Luna flew to his side and kissed him. “To be honest, there’s not much problem.
... “We are here,” Huno said staring down at the ice fortress beneath them. “Thank you,”“Are these your subordinates? They look different from humans,” Golden crow said looking at those that had flew out to greet them. Several third petals had flew out to face them. Seeing Huno, their expressions had changed. They were greatly relieved.“It seems, they were ready to die while biting a bit of our flesh. Haha,” “Yes, those are my subordinates. They are Melings, they aren’t human,”“There are several of them. Their number is quite large. Do you want to take them over to the Fallen world?” Qiong Qi asked.“That would take months,” Golden crow said. “Just a few days. I need to rest a bit so we won’t be moving immediately,” Huno replied. “I haven’t rested properly since my resurrection,”“Okay,” Huno turned to the third petals. “Prepare a resting place for the various seniors,”“Yes sir,” Izu responded.“Well, we too need to rest, I guess,” Golden crow said. Huno
