Host And The Soul System 11. I am my own enemy
“What the hell were you thinking?“ She asks me when i can finally breathe properly. “Where are we?“ I ask, ignoring her question. “The capital” She replies. I rise to my feet to look at my surroundings and my jaw almosst drops at the sight of the giant birds flying in the sky, a city spreads beneath our feet and once again, it feels like we have entered a different world. I see sparks of light and energy burst up to the sky in multiple colors. It's beautiful. “It's as beautiful as it is deadly so be on your toes and don't go wandering off. Killing people isn't only a host's job. The Souls here are corrupt and ready to kill for more power so try not to get on anyone's nerves” She smacks. Her gaze is cold when she looks at me which oddly makes me feel more comfortable than when she spoke nicely to me at the lotus house. I nod in agreement. After what just happened, I'm not sure if i wanted to part ways with Kara just yet. She saved my life. I tighten my grip around
Host And The Soul System 12. No control
[Warning: Level 10 host detected]“You have to get out of there.” Spix says.“That's me” i reply in shock as my other self advances towards me. The sword in his hand is different from mine. It looks a lot like the one i had while fighting the water siren. “It's the host version of you. Right now, you are only a soul player with a player's system. That is what you will become if you let Ayra's system consume you. Filled with nothing but the greed to destroy and oppress every soul playe—” Spix is cut off by the loud blast that is sent my way. I dodge it by rolling away. The energy blast doesn't crash into anything. It only disappears into the void of darkness. My host self glares at me with glowing bloodshot eyes as he draws out more energy. He walks towards me in a slow and robotic manner before firing another blast. I narrowly escape the blast, and I charge for him with my sword. He blocks the attack and counters, cutting through the skin on my arm. I fall back, groaning i
Host And The Soul System 13. The Tournament of surprises
TW: BLOOD & GORE “THE RULES ARE SIMPLE!“ Dante shouts and the whole amphitheatre falls into silence. “Only 10 of you will make it to the next chamber. These gems are the key. You must catch it and return to its base on the other side of the capital. Hosts are not allowed to play. We are only here to guide you” he slurs on the word “guide”. “Eliminate as many players and crush your opponents. After the 10 gems are returned. The rest of you will be eliminated” Cane adds with a grin on his face. Hosts, you know what to do. Players, you know what to do. Let's not waste anymore time. LET THE GAMES BEGIN!“ He rushes through his word like he's already bored and ready for some action. A loud horn blows and Kara leaps into the air grabbing a gem and running out the gates. The other nine are taken swiftly. I notice Axel speeds past with Ravena with two gems in his hand. The ring is empty in seconds and we all turn to the large screen. The hosts walk out, following the soul players. A
Host And The Soul System 14. Give in to me
“What…The… F**k?!“ I hear Dante say. “That's the highest level host. If we kill him, the game ends!“ Someone yells. WHAT? I DID NOT KNOW THAT!“Give in to me and Let me handle this, okay? You just sit back and let me take control“ The beserk system says in a soothing voice. I feel compelled to let go of control and give in. I close my eyes and it feels like I'm floating. I'm no longer in control of my body. Reid's word hit me like a bomb. I can't give in. “No! I just want to save Kara.“ I say, struggling to gain control of my body but the system is already too strong and infesting every part of my body. “I'm starving, Knox. Let me feed on their energies. I'll save the girl.” The system says. The host sword glows and i charge for Cane, he raises his sword to protect himself but my sword cut clean through it. I wrap a hand around his throat and i lift him into the air, the sword charges with energy and i try to fight it. “Stop! Stop!“ I shout internally but the system i
Host And The Soul System 15. Kill The Glitch
MEANWHILE AT THE 51ST CHAMBER…Ravena drags Axel through the court of the Elvil house with his arm slung over her shoulder. No one bothers to stop them but she keeps to the shadows to avoid the watchful eyes of the hosts who have already been put in a bad mood. The whole of the capital is in tension as Cane has incinerated almost twelve people in the space of two hours. She sets him down in a storage room and charges up her energy to heal him. “I failed you…” Axel says. “I should go after him. I—”“Save your strength. You can't win against him. I knew that power was familiar. It's Ayra. The 100th chamber rogue system. She's in Knox's body” She says, chipping away at her fingernails. “Ayra?“ Axel asks in shock, struggling to sit up in an upright position. “I don't know how it happened but we have to after them if we want to find a way to talk to my father.“ Ravena starts pacing around the room. Axel grabs her arm before she moves again. “Don't tell me you still
Host And The Soul System 16. Soul Sisters
Knox I open my eyes and it's all white. There's nothing else here but a white light. I would say this is what i had imagined as the after life when i died, if I hadn't transmigrated to Eden Bizarre. The pain in my chest is gone and i can breathe fine. I rise to my feet, trying to figure out what other world i had fallen into but there's nothing here to give me a clue. “Spix?“ I call but there's no answer. Did i really die this time? Did Ayra consume my soul and trap me here like she did to the previous 100th host? I ask myself but obviously there's no one to answer my question. “You won't find her here” Someone says from behind me. I turn to see Ayra sitting on a white throne. There are multiple open screens in front of her. She waves her hand and it disappears, she appears in front of me but i can't believe she's actually here. “I found you” I say under my breath. She snorts out a laugh. “You're hilarious. You didn't 'find' me. I brought you here. You and i need to
Host And The Soul System 17. Welcome To Paradise
“Where are we?“ I ask, looking around. The room is unusual. It reminded me of my hospital room when I was alive. It didn't smell like mahogany wood like the houses on the 52nd chamber, and when i go to touch the alabaster walls, it's smooth and firm like it's made of cement. “The 52nd Chamber” She tells me while pouring the water into the sink. I open the windows, and the cool air pours into my lungs. My jaw drops at the sight of the modern city. There's skyrises on every street. It's almost like the city outside my window in the hospital. The city I longed for but never had the privilege of exploring. “Woah! It's a whole new world here” I sigh, staring out into the city as everything happened beneath me. There's a beach not far from here. The beauty of the city washes my worries away. “Have you ever been here?“ “No i haven't. I talked to the receptionist and she said it's a big city. We are going to be here for a while if we want to find Ayra. I have a feeling she's
Host And The Soul System 18. Trouble in paradise
I don't know how long I've been here but i never want to leave. The girl who dragged me into the party gave me a drink and cheered me on while I rode on one of the bikes in the arcade. The whole place was doused in energy and the smell of sweat as everyone danced away their problems. It was a euphoric feeling where nothing else mattered. I didn't care for my name or her name or anyone else for that matter. It was a good day to party indeed. With a big smile on plastered on my face, i navigate the arcade and the party. Someone throws an arm over my shoulder and i turn to the man. “You need to leave” he says. “Leave? Why would i want to leave paradise?“ The words leave a sour taste in my mouth but I still don't want to leave. If I'm being honest, i don't even remember which way is the exit. “Everything is so bright and beautiful here” He grabs my arm and starts pulling me away from the crowd. “Hey! Where are you going?!“ I hear the girl scream. The music freezes and e
