Within the cosmic disaster, fierce radioactive waves blew frenziedly in the form of gamma-infused winds carrying extremely penetrative X-rays which flew about like sharp needles. Sharp UV and infrared rays mixed with intense light flashed endlessly in a kaleidoscope of colors that blinded and burned into one’s corneas. Such light and winds mixed together, producing intense heat that burned as hot as the sun.Within the storm, everything was out to kill you. If it weren’t for the sharp winds possessing a sharp tearing force that could rip one to shreds in mere seconds, then the extreme light and heat radiation would burn you to a crisp. Strong stellar lightning discharged within like the thunderous fury of gods rumbling with powerful radio waves that scrambled all signal frequencies beyond thousands of kilometers from its center capable of affecting one’s thoughts, causing them to stagnate and freeze.This was the terror of the electromagnetic force storm. It was something no mere bein
Sable didn’t act immediately. Only when the majority of the horror’s body had formed together in a fleshy clump did he finally make his move?Now!Suddenly, Sable flew forward and rushed at the still-forming horror who despite not fully formed retained some form of perception of the world. It immediately attacked Sable, fleshy tentacles extending from its shapeless body rushing forward to attack Sable.Sable ignored these attacks, simply moving forward with no intention to defend himself. Yet before the tentacles could reach him, they were immediately cut off by a powerful gust that shot from the side.“Don’t ignore me. I’m still right here!”Arran’s voice came from the side, his words laced with blatant threat warning the horror to pay attention to him.At this, the horror seemingly fell into a dilemma unable to decide between continuing his attack on Sable or ignoring him to focus on Arran who was the more threatening enemy.But it was this hesitation that gave Sable enough to final
With so much preparation this time, the horror was the horror was finished. There was nothing else it could do but head toward its doom.The flames of the Grasso Forge churned furiously within its dimensional walls, purple hot fires revolving endlessly with a force that sucked the horror like a vacuum.Unable to resist, the horror entered the forge, and its fate was eventually sealed.As soon as the horror entered the Grasso Forge, Sable quickly performed some hand seals which in the end caused the flames to twist and turn into various shapes until they finally settled into a particular symbol.This symbol, as multiple ecliptic pyramids joined together at their tips to form a pentagram was a rune. Runes, like cryptic seals, were both transcendent languages that carried power within them. They served as mediums through which power could be passed on and maintained.The rune was branded on the flesh of the horror by the purple flames causing it to immediately lose all signs of vitality
What!!!Arran’s cry of alarm came as a shocking surprise to everyone causing them to react and violently turn to look at Earth. But they didn’t sense anything off about the planet so after observing for a while they faced Arran and inquired.“What are you talking about? The planet looks fine to me,” Beatrice said.“Yeah. Nothing seems out of place,” Pamela agreed.Sable said, “Hey listen, bro, I know we just came out of a tough fight but this isn’t the time to be an alarmist okay? Please just say that you were joking and let it all end there… please!”In Sable’s case, he’d much rather not have to deal with any other issues after having just resolved the previous problem. It seemed too harrowing a thing to look forward to.Sadly, Arran shook his head in denial, refusing to indulge him.“Unfortunately, I wish I were joking but this is a very serious matter. I can feel it. After borrowing the Earth’s power, I’m now in tune with its pulse and can intimately sense the state it is in. That
A few minutes ago…At the moment the decadent horror was defeated and sealed away, in a place far far away, across trillions of light years, indeterminate dimensions and countless realms, a dark gaze opened amidst an endless sea of fire.A figure sitting on a throne of obsidian and bones awakened causing haunting wails and sorrowful howls to echo in the backdrop like some soul-stirring BGM dedicated to the character.Kasack, his gaze lazy and pained seemingly awakened from a dream. His consciousness hazy, the Shade lord looked around his lair as if to reorient himself.Many things have changed since the last time we were introduced to the inner sanctum of the Dark Star planet. The frenzied roar of the countless Shades and dark creatures subordinate to Kasack was gone, replaced instead by the screeching of undead souls tragically sacrificed to Kasack’s power’s growth.The flames in the pit burned hotter, emitting a dark blue tint at the bottom that made the lair darker and more siniste
Somewhere else…In a hall filled with stark opulence and moderate allure, thirteen seats were arranged in a row elevated high above the ground, of which all but one was empty. An elder with a grizzled but vibrant visage looked down on two slender figures below, his eyes shaded and lips drawn back in a smile as he spoke in a hearty voice.“Have you too made up your minds? Do you still want to venture forth knowing the dangers involved?”One of the figures below answered without hesitation, her voice carrying a sonorous overtone like a bounding whale song, filled with vitality.“Yes, Grandpa Floyd. We understand. We’re ready!”Sigh!Councilman Floyd sighed in resignation, unwittingly accepting the answer. Then he said, “In that case, forth with confidence. It is time for this universe to remember the true strength of Aeth.”…Back on Earth…Arran wallowing in his weakness reflected on his mistake but as time wasn’t on their side, he couldn’t continue in his self indulgence. Instead, Arr
Arran flew above earth, his body giving off soft milky starlight that wasn’t as intense as before. With a thought, a stream of that starlight separated from Arran and streaked toward Earth.Arran began carrying out the plan to stabilize Earth using the World Essence Pulse Bracers. In no time at all, the stream of energy entered Earth, disappearing just as it touched the barrier around the planet. There was already a connection between Earth and Arran so using this connection Arran could locate the core of Earth’s energy easily. That is the spark of origin.For the first time, Arran witnessed firsthand what the spark of origin looked like. This was Arran’s first glimpse of what origin looked like in its true form. The Essence of origin that was contained within the spark on earth opened a whole new world to Arran.Arran, whose intrinsic law that was awakened after opening the reality gate, was the law of origin. This was a law that contained the primal essence of all things. It was imp
Over the past year, humans and most living beings on earth had grown numb to chaos and disaster after the apocalypse had arrived. Almost nothing could get a reaction out of them, whether it was the attacks from mutated creatures and criminal meta-humans, exploitation from those that wielded incredible powers over them, or the constant struggle for survival. Most humans were no longer moved by them.The previous earthquake that shook the entire earth was the only major thing that had caused the entire earth to become alarmed, causing many to take action, thinking that a new apocalypse was beginning. But even that hadn’t terrified many as the sudden descent of darkness that currently consumed the entire earth did.The total loss of light was reminiscent of the night it all began — a year ago when the apocalypse started.Without the ability to see, everything descended into chaos. Mortifying screams of terror and roars of panic rang constantly like the clarion call of disaster inviting d
