Undead

Finally exiting the cover of the plants, Jacob unsheathed his Sword as he finally saw the two Undeads; It was true, one had a rather small stature, like a female's, while the other had a more bigger stature. But they had one thing in common; their skin were both falling off, looking extremely grotesque.

"Alright, here's close enough, Tony; probe them", Stephen said as Tony nodded and concentrated. Raising up his hands with his palms facing up, Tony summoned some vines from underground as they latched onto the Undeads, holding them down.

"Woohoo, it worked; and there's no reflection. Good one Tony", Lucy cheered, patting Tony's back as Tony puffed out his chest and scoffed, as if to say it was to be expected.

"Phew, that's a relief. Take down your Space Wall Jacob; it must be draining your mana", Stephen said, as Jacob had been using the Space Wall to shield against the flaming arrows. Nodding, Jacob was about to take down the Space Wall when he suddenly realised something as he

    Lost Memories 'Is this the end', Jacob thought as the flaming arrow left it's bow, flying towards him. Clenching his teeth in despair, Jacob was unwilling to die as he struggled violently against the gravitational force, only to find it getting heavier. Sighing, Jacob closed his eyes, feeling the cold hands of death getting closer. "Ba dum, Ba dum", Jacob heard something. Listening closely, Jacob found out that it was his heart, although the gravitational force had stopped every single particle of his body from moving, it couldn't stop his heart. Thinking to here, Jacob suddenly felt something, a strange energy was filling his body, filling him with power, making him feel the same way he did whenever he was filled with Mana. The weird thing about the Energy was that, although Jacob was absolutely sure that he had not felt that Energy before, he could feel a strangely familiar aura in the Energy, like he was with a close kin. Deciding to think about that later, Jacob took a deep brea

    Bloodline Awakening After making sure that Jason went back to his shelter and was resting, Jacob finally went into his own, keeping an eye out for Stephen.Lying down on his makeshift bed, Jacob was wondering if he should enter the Sword Space when he suddenly remembered; he had some system notifications to check. Getting comfortable, or at least he tried to, he asked the system; "System, Replay past notifications".**Ding Replaying past notifications : *1* Congratulations, the skill, Wind Walk(D Ranked) has been upgraded to Flash Steps(C Ranked).

    They are Rank B??"Do you think the things from the palace can be moved outside??", Jacob asked as Katerina raised an eyebrow; "Why do you ask??". Jacob didn't reply as he tried to use his Telekinesis to lift the sofa up, and to his suprise, it worked!!!."Let's go", Jacob said as Katerina followed behind him, wondering why this human was acting strange.||Jacob gasped as he came to, he still couldn't get used to the dizziness caused by travelling to and from the Sword Space.He helped Katerina fix in the sofa as her new bed, and after rounds of thanks from her, he finally left the Sword Space.Popping some Hunger Distancing pills in his mouth, he stretched his sore muscles as he laid on the makeshift bed; there was still time to get enough shut eye.♧♧♧♧♧♧♧♧♧♧Early the next morning, Stephen called for an emergency situation report."I'm sure you've all heard about this, but just to be clear, I'll go through it again.

    Real DangerWalking deeper into the Village, the two teams stuck together, making sure to not go past a certain distance from each other."Urrggghhh...this is so boring!!!", Lucas complained, for the third time in the past hour."Stop being a pr*ck Lucas", Lucy chided as Lucas rolled his eyes, but he stopped complaining though. Seeing this, Jacob, who was beside Lucy smiled; although Lucas and Lucy seemed to be estranged, they still loved each other.They had been moving around for the past two hours and all they had come across was a bunch of D ranked Monsters that Lucas disdained to even look at, claiming they were a shame on his name. In the end, the task of clearing them off fell on the one ranked lowest, Jacob. Jacob also cleared them off in one move, using his modified Shadow Decay. The shadows of the D ranked Sand Tigers emerged from the ground and enveloped them and the next moment, the shadow cleared off, revealing what could only be called bones. When Jacob used the skill,

    Unfortunate Encounter "F*ck", Lucy cursed as she stumbled, the second time in five minutes. She didn't know what happened, the last thing she remembered was her walking alongside Jacob before her vision blurred, and she found herself in this place. Wondering if she was the only one that was in this strange world, she decided to move along, making sure to keep the giant waterfall in her line of sight; that was her current destination. Walking fast, she couldn't help but get spooked by the eerie silence in the atmosphere. Gripping the whip hanged at her waist, she froze; she just heard something. Shuffling behind a huge tree, she crouched as she focused on the sound, and a few seconds later, she smiled; it was Stephen's voice. Standing up, she was about to go and meet him and whoever he was talking to when she paused again. Looking through the gaps in the tree, she saw him; his back was to her, but there was nobody in front of him. Instead, he was holding a communication device and wa

    Story TimeStretching open her heavy eyelids, the first thing Lucy heard was the sound of water dropping into something. She looked around as she tried to remember what happened. She was tied down, her arms bound onto a chair, including her legs. She was in a dark place, the only source of light was a blue glow coming from a gem in the centre."Haa, I see you are awake", a voice snapped her out of her thoughts as the memories flooded back into her mind; Stephen."What do you want with me??", Lucy asked as she struggled against the bindings."Nothing much, only your bloodline", Stephen said as he shrugged, finally coming into her point of view.Looking at the gentle smile on Stephen's face, Lucy shivered, Stephen was definitely not an ordinary person."Bloodline??, what are you talking about??""Oh, you don't know??. Well, I guess it's not surprising, you humans don't know the gifts you have", Stephen said as he sighed. Shoving his hands in his pocket, he snapped his fingers as the sou

    Vampire[WARNING: GORY SCENE AHEAD](1)"It's Lucy....She became one of those Undead", Stephen said, rooting Tony to the spot."What????...Undead??, how is that even possible??", Tony asked in disbelief."Sigh, I also don't know Tony, I met her unconscious and decided to bring her into this cave I saw earlier. But then, she woke up screaming and thrashing around, making all those groaning noises", Stephen said, once again shocking Tony."The Guild might have something that could save her, but she might get away before then. Let's go inside the cave, so you can use your wood element to tie her down, at least before the rest of the group gets here", Stephen continued, causing Tony to nod repeatedly. Taking a step forward, Tony was about to go inside the cave when he paused, he decided to probe the cave first. Being a wood element awakened, he could communicate with the plants, and even the soil, using it to know whether he was stepping into a trap or not.Slightly closing his eyes, Tony

    Night CrawlerGetting over his shock, Jacob became curious; the last time he used the system's observe skill to check Stephen's status, it brought him up as human, but this was definitely not human.'Observe', Jacob muttered;==============** Name : Stephen Miller Class : Null Level : 17 (Weakened) Race : Night Crawler(Lower Demonic Specie) Night Crawler : An ancient demonic race, known as slaves of the ancient Vampire Knights. They have the special attribute of being able to blend into any situation, therefore earning them the nickname; Illusionists of the Underworld. In ancient times, they were sent out by their masters to invade enemy territories and wreck havoc, blending in as one of the enemy. Their natural form is similar to that of a vampire but weaker. Although the Night Crawler attribute gives them the ability to blend in, staying in their fake form for too long gradually weakens their power, eventually making them vulnerable to attacks.===============.'So that'

    Jacob struggled to move as he watched the group of four walk into the room.Kayden, Lucas, Jason and Devon all walked in like controlled robots without a soul. "Hahaha!" The loud laughter of the undead leader rang in the space of the room.Jacob's eyes had rimmed red and the veins in his hands were already bulging due to his struggling intensely despite the intense pain he was currently experiencing. "Aren't they just beautiful? Human skin has always been too flashy for my taste anyway." The undead leader muttered as he scanned the group once more before he seemed to realize something a thoughtful look crinkling his already crinkled brows, "Wait a minute... wasn't there a girl among you bunch? Why is she not here?" He asked, however, the four remained staring ahead lifelessly, the undead facepalmed, "Ah, I almost forgot you can't speak anymore, you won't even have a will of your own anymore but will only do what I will you to do. Nevermind, the girl probably ran off and left you all

    "So it was you all along." Jacob suddenly said, his voice bouncing back from the white walls in the room. The very one they'd been looking for had been before them all along. The leader of the undead that Katerina had told him about was none other than this man. "For the one with the godly bloodline, you are smart, at the same time stupid." The undead man said as he began to pull some wires from the large equipments in the white room, he continued speaking as Jacob watched his actions, "Knowing your friends would die, you gave yourself instead, smart thought, but a stupid move..." The undead tilted his head smirking at Jacob, his grey skin crinkling up. "And you're stupid to think I'll just let your little friends escape just like that." Hearing that, panic was quick to surface in Jacob's eyes, "What did you do to my friends?" Jacob who had been sitting in the chair they bound him in without attempting to fight back began to struggle hearing the others might be in danger."I just s

    White hunter's guild; Inside the office of the vice president.The sharp sound of a communication device rang forth, the sound slightly muffled until Thomas Stone, the vice president of the guild picked out the communication device that was stuffed hidden within his drawer."Any updates on what the kids are up to?" He asked the person on the other end."Yes boss, they went into the dustwind village, but the kid with the godly bloodline has been caught, as for the others, they were able to escape.""It doesn't matter, that kid is the one we wanted all along anyway. Master is going to be so pleased with me as I was able to get him what he wants. Those two fools were too hasty, they had the kid right within their grasp but they allowed themselves lose him, this time I'll take the credit for succeeding in attaining master's biggest goal. Make sure the kid is guarded well, he can't escape.""Yes boss." The other person replied before cutting off the communication device. "Soon brother, ve

    The endless horde of undead creatures descended upon them like an unstoppable army, rushing out of the tall building towards the group."Damnit! How are they so many?!" Lucas exclaimed."There are too many of them, we can't possibly fight them all." Nikita said."Jacob, try to hold them back with your space ability!" Kayden instructed.Nodding, Jacob prepared his energy.'Space wall!' And immediately, the creatures that were already almost reaching where the group stood seemed to be stopped midair, however they didn't stop clawing and roaring at the invisible barrier in space.Gritting his teeth, Jacob could feel the whole weight of the creatures he was holding back, there were over hundreds of them."I can only hold them for so long, so I hope you all have a good plan." Jacob watched the man who had led them here as he stood amidst the raging horde of undead creatures with an evil smirk on his face."You cannot fight us, the godly bloodline shall be ours!!! We shall unleash chaos u

    Strangely, as they walked through the paths within dustwind village, they didn't once come across a single undead. It was as if there were no longer any undeads remaining."Do you think the people behind this moved the undeads elsewhere?" Jason asked Jacob as they were walking a little behind the group. "I can't say, but this all feels suspicious." Jacob muttered."Yeah, there seems to be something fishy, let's stay on high alert." "Che!" A scoff came from behind them, when Jacob turned to look, he saw Lucas walking behind him. "Got something to say?" Jason asked wondering why he'd suddenly scoffed when he'd been silent the whole time."Not to you." Lucas retorted before directing his gaze towards Jacob, "If you're having suspicions, why not take action and find out exactly what's amiss?" After saying that, he increased his pace walking past them both. Jason watched him leave with a weird expression, "Why do I feel like he'd literally kick you in the face if he could?" Jacob sig

    "Catch!" Jason playfully threw the communication device towards Jacob from a distance as they all stood at the borders of dustwind village, the first place an undead had been sighted.Jacob accurately caught the device in his hands. As Jason let out a small victory chuckle, he caught the glare Nikita had directed at him, his smile immediately falling. "If you take this as a game beast boy, be ready to become undead food." She spat at him sarcastically. Before moving forward, "Come on Devon," She called the guy who'd been standing beside her.The guy with a feminine demeanor gave Jason a gloating smirk before following behind Nikita closely. "Ugh, I wish I could punch his sissy face." Jason muttered. "Who's he anyway?" Jacob asked having seen Devon for the second time now, the first time being at the guild as he'd always be found hanging around Nikita and some other group of girls at the guild."Miss Nikita's personal assistant." Jason replied still glaring at Devon, "The sissy stic

    "Dude, you totally killed it when you destroyed that water dragon and defeated that water element guardian, everyone at the guild have been talking about it non stop!" Jason exclaimed for what seemed like the hundredth time.Two days had passed since Jacob had engaged in that fight, yet not a moment passed by that he didn't hear about it from everyone one else at the guild.Even at this moment, when he was just trying to have a quiet meal at the cafeteria, he could feel the number of gazes directed at him, if they had lasers in their eyes, he'd have been burnt to a crisp by now. He was about to reply to something Jason had said when his eyes fell on Lucy from across the hall, she sighted him too, however she soon looked away making her way towards the counters before she later joined her friends at their table.Jason who had seemingly been rambling followed his gaze to where Lucy was before asking, "Hey what's the deal between you and Lucy anyway, seems like she's been avoiding you."

    The dragon came at Jacob with a flashing speed with it's mouth wide open as if ready to devour him."Shit! If that water dragon swallows that kid, he'll drown without a way out!" Soon as that person had spoken, the water dragon's mouth closed on Jacob's body swallowing him whole, all of this happening within just a single second. Loud gasps echoed within the hall before the whole place fell dead silent.Erion was smirking triumphantly as he seemed to manipulate the water dragon to make sure Jacob drowned without an escape within the dragon's stomach. "What in hell's name is that?!" One of the onlookers yelled pointing at the water dragon which had now supposedly devoured Jacob. Within the gigantic water creature's body, a bright light was illuminated until a clear image was formed.Seemingly sitting in a cross legged position, Jacob still had his eyes closed as if concentrating and gaining an enlightenment. "What? How is that possible? How is that kid not drowning?" Erion stared

    The guardians began laughing among themselves seeing the state Jacob was in."So much for a double awakened, you're just a helpless little kid to our might after all." The commander of the guardians said in a ridiculing tone.Just at the moment the guardians were beginning to gloat about their might, a stifling pressure, that seemed to come from a very mighty figure descended upon them.Taken aback, their eyes widened as they felt themselves having trouble even breathing due to the suffocating pressure. "What...the..." Baron, the commander of the guardians managed to choke out as he stared at Jacob with surprise filled eyes. After a short amount of time, Jacob withdrew his might skill he had used on the guardians knowing it would drain too much of his mana if he kept it going, hoping that would be enough to let them know to leave him alone."That kind of power isn't something that should come out of a little kid like you!" Baron's eyes flashed with greed, "What great treasure are yo
