“I can’t believe there are so many humans hiding up here,” Joyner said to himself.

“And judging from the looks of things, they are all important leaders of the human race. This Rekindle program — what an interesting project!”

Having discovered the remnants of humanity's political power hidden away in space, Joyner was still slightly surprised. He marveled at the intelligence of humanity's upper echelons coming up with a contingency to save themselves for a moment before promptly proceeding to break into the Ark’s network and accessing all the information located in its database.

In just a few seconds, Joyner already knew everything there was to know about the Sun Ark and humanity's Rekindle project. He also discovered why they hadn’t picked up on the space station's existence when they had first drives on Earth.

As it turned out, the Sun Ark operated on a closed network system that was completely shutoff and isolated from the rest of the internet. It was virtually impossible to dis

    Joyner’s response was terrifying for so many reasons, one of them being that it proved he still possessed access to the Ark’s system network without the communication window being open and was able to remain undetected by any means. The implications of this were too frightening to even think about, as proven by the fact that Joyner knew the contents of what the world leaders had been discussing just a few minutes ago.Suddenly, a very conspicuous figure who had remained silent from the start of the meeting until now was the first to speak up. “Mr Joyner, from your words can we take it to mean that you’re not human and are one of the aliens we’ve heard talk about?” As soon as the man started speaking, everybody in the room turned to look at him with confusion. The person to whom all eyes were focused was dressed in a white ceremonial overall, a string of rosary beads on his neck, and a small round cap on his head looking the picture of utmost serenity and calm. This man was the head

    Joyner stared at Pope Benedict XXVII for a moment before answering. “That is an important question which, for all your sakes, I will explain before moving on.” “I come from a race in the universe known as the Aeth. Us Aeth as you have noticed possess many striking resemblances to humans but we should not be confused as being the same. What you humans and us Aeth have in common is that we belong to a universal species of sentient beings known as Carpal Bipeds, a species that is characterized by possessing jointed fingers and carpal wrists and the ability to walk upright on two feet.” “On your planet, you would call these species humanoids and there are many such humanoid races in the universe, millions possibly, most of which possess vastly different physical traits that lack any resemblance at all and some — like humans and Aeth — are very similar in appearance. But there remains a distinction between similar races, one that can mostly be seen on a much deeper genetic level than wha

    After a brief moment of silence, Joyner was asked, “So, what do you want from us now?”Joyner did not answer immediately. Instead, he surely noted something about the psychic’s ability.“This human’s powers are quite advanced. Other than mind linking of multiple individual’s thoughts, does he also possess thought acceleration abilities? It seems there’s more to this planet than meets the eye.”Joyner was just coming face to face with Earth’s uniqueness after encountering his first advanced super ability. Like Arran, Joyner also believed that something was off about this.But Joyner didn’t dwell on this matter for long. He turned to the world leaders and said, “Before we continue, shouldn’t you invite me inside first? It is very discourteous to discuss important matter without inviting a guest into your home.”Only when Joyner mentioned this did the world leaders realize the issue. Joyner remained outside the Ark and was communicating with them through their network system, which he ha

    Where did he go??How did he disappear??Find him at once!!!Before panic could fully set in, the psychic, who had been silent all along except for the time he first arrived, quickly took charge of the situation and tried to explain.“Sirs, calm down. I don’t believe he has disappeared. We just can see him after he breached the Ark.”“Well, don’t just stand there. Find him!” Someone yelled at the psychic, shouting at the top of his lungs.Others also chorused…“Yeah, that’s right, the alien has gained access to the Ark, which potentially threatens our safety. You have to find him at all costs!”Others laid their doubts bare before everybody…“How did he manage to enter the Ark? It’s like he walked through solid matter, like it was nonexistent. What kind of power is that?”No matter who spoke or how they reacted, the world leaders were very visibly shaken. In response to this, the psychic — showing no particular emotions — pulled out a structural map of the Ark and displayed it for all

    For the next three minutes, the world leaders discussed how to deal with Joyner. Their discussion mainly focused on what their attitude would be like and what stance they would have towards his objective.It was already accepted between everyone that they probably had no way to resist or deter Joyner should he choose to resort to forceful coercion to deal with them, so for their sakes, an abundance of caution was required in further talks.Essentially, when it came to a discussion, everything boiled down to the politics of the matter and what benefits were attached and as long as these two were involved, these world leaders were more versed in it than any other.Three minutes later, a hazy dark mist seeped out of the wall in a corner of the room. The mist lingered for a moment before quickly condensing into Joyner’s figure.The world leaders looked on as Joyner appeared before them, their eyes wary and cold. No one got up to welcome Joyner, who had intruded into their presence, and wh

    “How many of you are here on Earth?”After the previous altercation, the world leaders asked a few more questions before getting around to inquire about this. This question was also important because the more aliens there were, the more deterrence they would have over the world leaders, causing their actions to be quite limited.Joyner answered, “ There are seven of us in total. You already know about my three companions in one of your settlements on Earth. Including me, there remain three others present on the planet that you haven’t met. As long as our cooperation proceeds well, you’ll get to meet all of them, eventually.”Joyner didn’t hide anything regarding the number of his companions. There was nothing to hide about it, though Joyner didn’t go into details about their identities.As for the world leaders, they frowned after hearing the specific number of Aeth present on Earth. For a team of operatives, seven could either be a big or small number. If the seven individuals were p

    After that, things moved swiftly for Arran and the others. The world leaders fulfilled their end of the bargain and begun mobilizing all the forces under their command to work with the Aeth to scour the ends of the Earth in search of clues while also providing existing records of everything that had happened over the past hundred years. Everything that didn’t concern state secrets was offered up to the Aeth by the world leaders. They didn’t hold back at all.This was a large amount of data that needed to be carefully analyzed so as not to miss anything.Beatrice was in charge of this project. She was provided a separate office in the original settlement although she had been invited up into the Ark, which she declined. As for the others, they were busy moving around Earth searching for clues while also fulfilling their end of the bargain.…Currently, Arran is on a boat. Behind him were the soldiers from the settlements who were escorting Arran to a place on the ocean.Surprisingly, b

    Arran had flown a considerable distance away when he suddenly looked back, already noticing the person chasing behind him. Arran’s first thought was to ignore him and continue on his way. But after with the colonel was still in hot pursuit behind him, Arran finally gave in and stopped his flight. He descended to the sea and waited for the colonel to catch up.Thirty seconds later, the colonel finally caught up to Arran. Despite running for about two kilometers at full speed to catch up to Arran, the colonel remained unperturbed as if what he had just done was a light run through the park. Other than the wet sea breeze that clung to his body, there was no sign of the race he had just undergone.After catching up, the colonel said to Arran, “You’re quite fast, aren’t you? I don’t believe that is your stop speed too, is it?”Arran ignored the colonel’s question, asking instead, “What are you doing here? I thought I told you to stay behind?”Arran was blunt, clearly displaying his displea

    The End… For Now!

    The battle which would later come to be known as the Apocalyptic Battle For Earth’s Survival ended in a dour note. This battle lasted for 4 hours and many lives were lost. Of these lives that went missing in the chaos of the battle, two were especially noteworthy for their relentless efforts to resist the vile invaders that threatened the planet Earth.They went by the names Arran Galen Von Stratenoff Nero and Faith (Poltergeist) Ohimai both of whom were presumed missing but still alive. Nobody knew where they went or what corner of the universe they currently found themselves. But wherever this was, they were both surely missed and everybody prayed for their safety and eventual return. … The Etherium… inside the royal council hall. A meeting of the highest importance was currently being held. In this meeting, every council member was present. Along with them, there were seven extra seats which were located at the highest point in the entire hall. Seated upon these esteemed chairs w

    Final Chapter

    Arran was sucked away into the void fissure which closed immediately after, but not before Poltergeist had managed to latch onto his thigh for whatever reason. Seeing Poltergeist clinging onto him, Arran was confused before suddenly developing the urge to retort vehemently. But he wouldn’t have that time for things were just starting to go very wrong. The space within the void fissure was just that… a literal void where nothing existed but the vast expanse of space. But the stability of this void was seriously compromised allowing for multiple fractures in space and time to open up in the surrounding void. Due to the force of the vacuum that pulled arran and Poltergeist into the void fissure, the two of them were barreling through this space uncontrollably without the ability to stabilize themselves. Arran was too weak at the moment after having all his strength drained from him while releasing the Earth’s World Will. As for Poltergeist, she was also weakened. This was because she

    World Will

    The awakening of the world's will of earth was not something Arran had ever expected much less that its awakening would have to do with him. It was then that Arran realized the cause of everything. In Arran’s hand, Soran lay there quietly, no longer trembling as before as if it had gone to slumber. But when Arran thought of how everything that just happened was all because of it, Arran was shocked beyond belief. Arran thought that he already understood what Soran was capable of yet only now did he know that he was yet to scratch the surface of all of Soran’s capabilities. Soran’s ability, Triumph, granted Arran the means to win. Before Arran thought it only made it so that he could meet his enemies power blow for blow regardless of the difference in the realm. But what if there was a situation where Arran was up against an opponent whose gap in the realm was impossible to cross logically? For instance, how would Soran ensure Arran’s victory if he was up against a god as a mere mort

    Soran left Arran’s hand, trembling powerfully in the air and creating a buzz of vibrations that spread into the surroundings. Arran was shocked by this not expecting it at all. Just as Arran was about to reach out to Soran to grab him, he suddenly paused as a feeling overcame him. Something was calling out to arran. Even more surprised, Arran looked around swiftly but he couldn’t find anybody around him. Then he thought of something and turned back to look at Soran who continued to tremble in the air. Indeed, just as Arran thought, as he focused on Soran, that call rose in his heart once again. It was as if something was reaching out to him through Soran from a mysterious place. Arran didn’t know who this person was but he knew what they wanted… to be freed. Arran didn’t give it much thought at all — there wasn’t anything to think about. The situation right was already dire. In releasing this person, what was the worst that could happen? Inwardly, Arran tried speaking to the ent

    Full Awakening… The Spark of the Universe’s Origin 2

    With the eyes of the old face half open, everything took a drastic turn for the worse for Arran and his group. Everybody else had lost consciousness except for arran who retained only a bit of consciousness in this situation… and one other person. With the opening of the old man’s eyes, the defense line was broken not only on Arran’s front but also on that of the Earth. The barrier of distorted space-time surrounding Earth after its barrier shattered was also broken through. Apart from Eris and Charmy, it was this barrier that prevented the blood sea from approaching Earth. But now that it was broken nothing was stopping it anymore. The polluted blood sea was free to advance on Earth. But the Aeth and the others could also now approach the planet. Having lost consciousness, all of them were free falling into the earth at this moment. They were unable to control their descent and were hurtling toward Earth at an incredible speed. At this height, falling with such a speed was enou

    Kasack vanished from the battlefield, scooped away into the safety of the dark star planet causing Arran to miss his chance at finally ending this threat once and for all. Arran was frustrated not knowing when he might ever have another chance like this again. But he didn’t wallow in his frustration for long. In no time arran calmed down and analyzed the situation. While it was a pity that he couldn’t kill Kasack, arran realized the urgency of the situation. Whatever Kasack did before his disappearance, it was bad… very bad. Looking at the visage on the surface of the dark star planet, Arran’s mind was met with a deluge of corrupting thoughts that tried to erode his mind. Even his resistance granted by his reality gate against mental pollution was not able to stop this corruption forcing arran to turn away from the planet. Yet even then, a chilling and slimy feeling lingered in Arran’s mind as his consciousness was continually under attack. Only with the combination of the World E

    In his madness, Kasack did something drastic. He completely unleashed the power of the old one sealed within the dark star planet. Lying within the core of the dark star planet was the old ones' power. This power was meant to be given to his chosen champion as a means to fight the Aeth civilization. It was the strongest legacy left behind by the old one which could not be inherited directly. This power was only meant to be used at the critical time of the conflict with the Aeth civilization. It was Kasack’s greatest trump card one that he was reluctant to ever use. Yet at this moment, In the face of death, Kasack unleashed this power knowing full well the repercussions of his action. Moan! Following Kasack’s mad ravings, a loud wailing moan echoed throughout the surroundings sounding like an old machine shutting down or large gears slowly going still. In the chaos of the battlefield, this sound was so conspicuous that it forced everyone to notice it. Gradually, the fighting stopp

    Final Death Throes

    Kasack was sent flying after being hit by Arran. His chest was sunken and bloodied from the barrage of staff thrusts delivered to him and a mouth full of blood burst from Kasack’s mouth. Kasack was severely damaged, his injuries extremely grevious. But the most severe blow done to Kasack was the blow to his mind and ego. Despite everything, despite all the preparations and plans he had made, Kasack still hadn’t succeeded in killing Arran, yet it was he who was left battered and on the brink of death once again. This thought, Kasack could not bear it. His previous shame which he had hidden beneath a well of anger and rage resurfaced once more, bursting onto the surface like an erupting volcano. Aaaahhhhhh! Kasack didn’t know who was screaming so desperately. In his daze, he heard a voice filled with fury and indignation. His mind was foggy from the impact of Arran’s blows and the bruise on his pride and ego. When the fog finally cleared a little, that is when Kasack realized that
