Settling In "Thud", a heavy sound roused Jacob awake, opening his eyes, he saw a man pointing a gun at him, a devilish smirk on his face, the man pulled the trigger.Gasping, Jacob woke up, realising it was a nightmare. But in reality, someone was truly thumping on his door; swinging his legs of the bed, he wondered who it was when he remembered that he was now living in a cabin at the White Hunters Guild. "Thud, thud", the heavy knocking came again. Jacob stood up in a rush, hitting his toe against the bedside stool; suppressing the urge to curse, Jacob limped towards the door, swearing to kill whoever it was if the knocking wasn't for an important reason. Opening the door, Jacob saw two guys standing in front of the door, one of them holding a club, presumably that was what was being used to knock."Who are you??", Jacob asked, frowning. "So you are the newbie around here eh??", the guy holding the club asked"Who are you??", Jacob asked again, restraining the urge to snatch th
MissionSitting so closely to a girl for the first time, Jacob kept keeping a safe distance from Lucy. "What are you doing with him", a harsh voice sounded.Entering the arena was a young man with people walking a step behind him; he looked like a typical rich young master from earth. "What do you want Lucas??", Lucy said, sounding displeased. "What are you doing with the Newbie??", Lucas continued. "None of your business Lucas", Lucy said, crossing her arms across her chest.Looking at the number tag on Lucas's vest, Jacob saw the number 1 on his vest. "Don't pay attention to him, he's a meanie", Lucy told Jacob, sounding cute."Come here kid", Lucas said, pointing at Jacob. Confused, Jacob looked around, wondering who it was Lucas was calling. "I'm calling you, Newbie", Lucas clarified, annoyed at the Newbie's idiocy.Scoffing, Jacob stopped paying attention to Lucas. Being ignored like that, Lucas got angry; "Hey you, go drag that Newbie here", Lucas commanded one of his lackey
Divine Weapon A loud siren woke the Heaven's Chosens of the White Hunters Guild up. It was the day they were going to start their mission; some had woken up earlier, making some last minute preparations, while others got a good night's rest, making sure their mental health is in good shape. Jacob was part of the latter; he had a good night's sleep and by the time he woke up, he was ready to do some hunting. Taking a quick shower and getting dressed, Jacob picked up his packed bag, filled with only things he truly needed, like the dagger he looted off of the Assassin that wanted to kill him.Leaving his cabin, Jacob went straight to Jason's cabin, knocking. A few moments later, Jason opened up, fully dressed and also with a packed bag."Are you ready", Jason asked "Yeah, I am, let's go", Jacob replied and they both headed towards the Training Ground, where they met up with the other Heaven's Chosens. Looking around, Jacob spotted Lucy in a corner, rummaging through her bag. As if f
Strange Place Seeing the notification, Jacob sucked in a cold breath of air.There was a Divine ranked Weapon in the Armory of the White Hunters Guild??. Following the arrow pinpointed by the system, Jacob went to the back of the Armory where in an inconspicuous corner, there was a stump, on which a Sword stuck. Looking at the bright arrow pointing out the Sword, Jacob was confused; the Sword didn't look like anything special, infact, the Sword was rusty, with holes in some parts of it. Walking closer to the Sword, Jacob used the Observe Skill of the system to obtain information about the Sword. **Demonic Star[Damaged] A sword forged by an Ancient Primordial God, it was said to have been used by the God to slay a Demon, in a battle that shook the Heavens. After the earth shattering battle, the Sword, having bathed in demonic blood, got tainted, unfit to be used by a God of Absolute Good. The God sealed the demonic aura in the Sword and left it in a lower realm, where the Sword c
Strange Girl Seeing the question marks on top of the girl's head, Jacob was stunned. He had played games on earth, and he knew that any NPC with question marks on their heads are always legendary characters. "How did you get here??", the little girl asked Jacob in a cheerful voice."I don't know, I was looking at a Sword and then.....", Jacob was about to explain when he got a notification from the system. ____________**Ding Host is in Danger!!!**____________Jacob was confused as to what the danger was. Looking up, he wanted to drag the girl to a safe place when he suddenly saw a pair of glowing red eyes looking at him. "What did you just say??", the girl asked, her voice no longer cheerful, sounding demonic instead and insanity present in her eyes. Terrified, Jacob secretly set up a space wall in front of him as he answered the girl; "I said, I was looking at a Sword...""A Sword", the girl repeated, attempting to remember something. "Ahhh, a Sword, how long has it been??",
Priscilla Walking towards Lucy, Jacob ignored the sneers the other Heaven's Chosens were directing towards him."Find anything you like??", Jacob asked Lucy"No, not really", Lucy answered absent-mindedly. Stiffening, Lucy looked up and saw that it was Jacob. "Oh, it's you, sorry; I didn't know it was you", Lucy apologised. Smiling, Jacob waved it off; "It's nothing, I was the one distracting you""Huh, that sword", Lucy said, furrowing her brows while pointing at Jacob's Sword. "What is it??", Jacob asked, confused by Lucy's reaction. "I don't know, it's weird, I feel like I've seen that sword before", Lucy said"Oh??, then it's not weird. Since it's a White Hunters Guild's weapon, you might have seen it in the Armory before", Jacob said, not finding it weird."But, this is the first time we are being allowed in the Armory", Lucy said again.Shrugging, Jacob still didn't find it weird; she might have seen it when it was being brought in.After thinking for so long and still not
Setting Off At the transport centre, Jacob and Jason met up with the other Heaven's Chosens, preparing to head to Dustwind Village. "Alright, Weapon choosing time's up, time to head to the Village", an Awakened of the White Hunters Guild announced."These buses have been provided for your transport, Group A in the first one, and Group B in the second bus", the Awakened directed.Jacob and Jason headed towards the bus designated for their group, Lucy following behind them."Why are there two buses??, the space in a single bus is enough", Jason asked, confused"Maybe to facilitate easy communication between teammates", Lucy said, taking her sit behind Jacob and Jason. "Alright, strap in, we're moving", the Awakened in charge of their transportation instructed, as their bus jerked, heading towards the Village, the Group A bus leading. The journey to Dustwind Village was long, four hours of driving through rough terrain. The journey was mainly uneventful, except for the time a Split H
Hypocrites Jacob and Stephen were stunned, for in front of them was a haggard looking man, who was dragging a rusty looking axe across the floor. The man seemed to not have noticed the kicking open of the door, because he still kept moving in a circle, dragging the axe. Upon closer inspection, Jacob and Stephen noticed that there was a sign of dried blood on the axe. Looking closely at the man, his eyes seemed dead; as if he was no longer human, but a living dead instead. Jacob and Stephen were beginning to wonder whether the man was dead or alive, so Stephen asked Jacob to remove his Shadow, revealing their presence. Almost immediately, the man's head jerked up, looking at them with gray, dead eyes. Snarling, the man raised the axe as he rushed towards Jacob and Stephen. Jacob reacted quickly, as he quickly raised his hand, activating his Telekinesis. Beside Jacob, Stephen's eyes took on a green glow as he attempted to glimpse into the future. Gasping, he shouted, "Jacob, No!!". B
