Inside the Earth’s space station…A man with an eye patch was casually seated in the control center, boredom visible on his face. “I am sick and tired of this. I have been staring at this screen all day long, yet nothing is happening…”Beep! Beep! Beep!An alarm resounded loudly inside the space station.The man with the eye patch jumped up from his seat. “What is it?” he inquired, moving towards the big screen. Several men wearing military uniforms could be seen typing away on multiple screens.“Captain, I think something just trespassed our defense line,” one man said.“What? But I see nothing,” the man with the eye patch responded.“Sir, we think it is invisible,” another man with bald hair deduced.A red light indicated a spot on the screen, signifying that something had just passed through the defense line.“Make it visible,” the man ordered again.“We have already tried, but the intruder seems to be preventing us from inside,” replied one of the soldiers in the control seat.The
After paying the 50 points, he was led to a room, or should I say, a locker room. Different lockers could be seen arranged in an orderly manner.He could see both male and female fighters who had ripped v-cut abs.The females looked more like men, with visible muscles everywhere. Compared to everyone here, he was the least in terms of muscles.He caught sight of a figure who had a similar build to him. The figure sat at the end of the broad locker room. Judging by his outfit, Ethan already knew the latter was a guest, just like him.The organizer in charge of the locker room led him to a locker with "guest" inscribed on it. He connected the dots: the guest locker room is for those who just want to participate for a night. That explains why the other fighters seem huge and bulky. "They are probably fighters who have been contracted to this fighting club," Ethan thought inwardly.He opened the metal locker and saw fighting attire neatly arranged. Surprisingly, there were only shorts and
Ethan finally connected the dots: the pale skin, the speed, and now his red eyes. It all meant one thing—he was fighting with a freaking vampire."What are you doing on the human planet?" Ethan tried to initiate conversation."I should be the one asking that question," the vampire sent out another punch."Well, I'm here on important business," Ethan said, frowning."Likewise," the vampire sent yet another kick. "I never knew the dragons wanted a share of Earth too," the vampire mocked."At least, we won't go on a rampage, sucking people's blood," Ethan sneered, sending a punch out.If one looked closer, they would be able to see small sparks anytime the duo exchanged blows."You think we are those savages who call themselves vampires," the vampire scoffed.Inside the hall, a girl was staring at the fight with keen interest. This was Layla, the girl Ethan had met inside the locker room.Layla had been watching the fight for a while now, and she had to admit the fight was interesting.A
Ethan and all the other students stood outside, staring at the gigantic oval-shaped metal building.The enormous size of the building made everyone there look like ants compared to it.A man in a military uniform walked to the front. He stretched his hands outward in a fist at a space, then with a stomp to the ground, a square-shaped metal platform could be seen protruding from the ground.The platform rose until it was high enough, now higher than everybody present. The man then proceeded to make a metal staircase leading all the way to the top of the platform.It was logical to make the stairs because one would need to use them if they wanted to get to the top.Sometime later, the soldier was finished with the platform design. Speaking of the design, it was just a pulpit and a microphone stand.The soldier's ability was called the metal ability. This ability was monopolized and controlled by the military.Ethan made a mental note of everything since it would be crucial for his goal.
Chapter 1The stench of blood and vomit filled the previously white room, now only a trail of red liquid dripping down from the wall, forming a blood trail.A river of blood covered the ground, leaving no space for the previously white floor to show, and a faint red bulb gave the room a sinister, ominous reddish glow.It was a torture room.In the middle of the room, a square-shaped, blood-stained fighting platform stood.On the platform, a young boy was tied upside down with a rope connected to the ceiling.Two youngsters, identical to each other, were hitting the boy with all kinds of skills. The punches seemed like they wouldn't stop any moment now.The boys stood opposite each other, punching the boy tied like a punching bag. It looked like they were sharing hits, tossing the boy from one to the other with punches and kicks. The tied-up boy was bloody from head to toe, looking like a blood-covered creature. The only way to identify the boy as human was by his figure.The punches c
Chapter 2"What!? That's suicide!!" Lewis said, almost screaming. Everybody present in the hall thought the same. First of all, dragons are very protective of their offspring, and they wouldn't mind killing a few humans to protect their children.Kane kept his cool, but even he was having an inner dilemma as well. With a smug expression on his face, he said, "We can handle the mission, but I don't think a certain person can," Kane said, tilting his head towards Ethan with a smirk."Well, since he's a member of the royal family and our little brother, we would protect him."If an outsider hears this, they will think Kane is a loving and caring brother, but Ethan knew what he meant. He simply meant because no one will come to your aid, I'd kick your a$$ in the forest.After the mission briefing, they were led into a circular-looking airship, an airship that was empowered with beast crystals. It simply floats in the air, so it does not need many mechanisms.The Dragon Empire had amounted
Chapter 3"Now that the trash is dealt with, why don't we hunt some dragon eggs?" Kane said in a cheerful tone as they ventured deeper into the forest.Inside a gloomy cave...Ethan's eyelid slowly twitched slightly before it finally opened."Is this the afterlife?" he asked, but there was no answer, only his voice echoing in the empty cave. He checked himself and discovered that all his bruises were healed."So I am dead?"He sluggishly picked himself up from the ground before he strode deeper into the cave. The cave had skeleton parts scattered all over the ground, and anytime Ethan stepped on one, a squishing sound echoed in the cave, and the bone turned into dust.A fairly large spider web extended from the cave ceiling slowly before it finally landed on Ethan's head."Shit." Ethan jolted back as he violently ruffled his hair. The spider fell to the ground before it hastily crept on top of the bones and disappeared into the dark cave."It's just a spider, huh? I thought it was a s
Chapter 4: Immediately, Ethan woke up. His head throbbed as if someone had used a hammer on it.He slowly stood up from the altar-like platform."Where am I?" Ethan muttered to himself, and the next moment, his memories gradually flooded his empty brain."Was it a success?" Ethan wondered aloud as he checked his body, and he noticed how light and toned his body had become; it felt as though he had gone through an evolution.Ethan swept his gaze around the hall, trying to find the ancient dragon. After looking for some seconds, he called out, "Ancestor."There was no answer, so he called out once more."Ancestor."This time, a voice interrupted him, and it wasn't just any voice because it sounded in his head."I am inside you now," Rowena said aloud in his head."What? how?" A look of surprise crossed Ethan's face."It is my remaining consciousness; it would guide you on how to master your powers, and by the way, you now have a tattoo on your back," Rowena voiced out."Can you please
