The old man in blue armour was standing behind Shian looking at him worriedly, he had sensed something was wrong with Shian and immediately killed all the beasts around him to lift the pressure off of him.
'He's still alive. I caused this, so I think it's only right I take care of him' The old man thought.He gingerly lifted Shian from the ground and ran. He moved at a steady pace so as to not disrupt Shian's rest, though he wasn't slow by any means.It didn't take long before they reached a base that was bustling with people, the old man stopped in front of the gate where two guards were positioned. They immediately bowed their heads and let him in, several similar situations occurred as he walked inside the base, the people he walked by bowed their heads with respect, though not the type of respect forced, but the one willingly given.The old man made his way towards a room, he opened the door without knocking and entered.Inside the room was an adjustable hospital bed with railings and a height-adjustable overbed table, there was a chair beside the bed and a screen, the room had a television and a window.A nurse who looked to be in her early twenties turned around to look at who walked in without knocking, and then she frowned."Haven't I told you to knock before entering". She scolded the old man."Ahh...sorry, I was in a rush that's why." the old man scratched the back of his head as he said.The situation looked rather comical as someone won't expect a gallant warrior —and an old one at that— to act sheepishly in front of someone way weaker and younger than them.The woman who was about to continue scolding the old man stopped when she saw that he was carrying a person, she immediately told the old man to place Shian on the bed and began to work.The old man watched as she worked carefully, she turned on a machine, and an object on the ceiling which looked like a camera projected a blue light, it scanned his body briefly and the screen beside the bed came up with an image of Shian's body, some parts began to turn red which indicated that that part needed attention, the part that had the deepest shade of red were his legs."DAMN!! His legs look pretty bad." The nurse mumbled to herself, then turned to look at the old man.The old man who had heared her was seemingly looking at his armour intently as of trying to bore a hole in it so as to avoid the nurses gaze.The nurse frowned and then looked away to focus on her patient. She tore off the bandage on Shian's legs and threw them away, she placed her hands over Shian's legs and a whitish glow left her hands and entered them, his legs grew new muscles, tissues and flesh. It was a gory scene but the two people watching were long used to seeing stuffs like that.She moved on to the next part of his body that needed to be healed, his torso.His torso was laced with deep cuts and purple bruises which showed just how much beating he had taken from the cruel beasts, the nurse inwardly felt pity for Shian. She wondered what he must have gone through to get all those marks on his body. She touched one of the marks and Shian's face contorted in pain, even though he was asleep, he still felt a terrible amount of pain from the little touch.The nurse did the same thing to Shian's torso, she used her ability and all the marks on his front torso vanished, she turned his body with the help of the old man and did the same to his back. She was about to turn his body back when she saw a tattoo of a black sword on his lower back, she found it strange because he was a young boy and having tattoo on his body was not bad but that was it. It was strange.She turned his body back and looked at his face, she caught herself gawking at him, She blushed and looked away.She turned to the old man and asked him what happened to him because she knew that he had a hand in whatever happened to Shian. The old man proceeded to tell her how he was testing Shian's limit and eventually Shian couldn't go on anymore and his brain shut down.She proceeded heal Shian's head, to be precise, his brain.Shian had faced a lot so it was given that he was going to have some 'injuries' on his mind, besides the screen beside the bed was showing red on his head and since she didn't see any injury there, she knew it was his mental health that was not okay. She healed his him and sat down on the chair beside the bed and then began to talk to the old man.Shian's eyes fluttered as he woke up. He looked around wondering where he was. The nurse and the old man where engrossed in their conversation so they failed to notice Shian waking up in time.Shian caught a few words of what the nurse and the old warrior said before they could stop talking."....killed all the evolved tier beasts and above so it was only the lower tier beasts that I made him fight."The nurse looked at Shian's bed and raised a finger signaling the old man to stop talking. "That was fast, a normal person would have taken at least five hours to wake." The nurse commented.The last thing shian remembered was him trying to kill all the beasts to survive before they all suddenly dropped dead and now he woke up in a hospital, on a soft bed —which he missed a lot— and two people talking about killing beasts in front of him.Without warning Shian's bed suddenly moved raising his torso and head up into a sitting position. The two people standing in the room where looking at him as if expecting something from him."Umm... Hi." Shian said as he was getting uncomfortable by their stares."Hello, my name is Enzo Blackwill, you can call me Grandpa Enzo." The old man said smiling so wide, it looked like he was closing his eyes.The nurse rolled her eyes and said. "I'm Maya Blackwill"."I was the one that put you in this situation,...soo, I apologize for what I did to you" The old man said and bowed his head lightly."Ookay."Shian didn't know what the old man was talking about, so he tried to think about it and that was when he remembered something."Wait did you just say Blackwill" Shian exclaimed."Umm...Do you know us?" Maya asked curiously."My father had only one good friend amongst all the friends that he had when he was a hunter for a certain someone. When he had a disease, that friend didn't leave him, he always came to visit to check up on my dad, even when all the others left him —heck even my mum left him— until recently, he stopped coming to visit." Shian sighed. "That friend, his name was Ryan Blackwill."The old man wasn't looking too good, it seemed like what Shian said had shaken him for some reason."My son!!, Ryan Blackwill is my son." The old man said. Considering the way he said it, something seemed to have happened. "What happened to him?" "Ryan died a few weeks ago." Maya sighed and replied gloomily. "He was assassinated.""I'm...so sorry about that" Shian said."Anyways, you might want to head back to earth..." Maya spoke but was cut off by Shian who was already standing up from the bed."Yeah, I really want to go back, like, right now. This planet has giv
Grandpa Enzo led the way out of the room, but before they left, Shian took a good look at the room, it was wide with white walls on each side and nothing in it except the portal in which they came through. "Why did we come through this portal, I thought we were supposed to come out through a portal in a military base?" Shian asked."The portal we used to head to that beast planet belongs to the military, but the one we just used to come back here is connected to this one we just came through." Grandpa Enzo explained while pointing to the red shimmering portal behind them. "So if you want to go back to the beast planet, you have to use the portal that belongs to the government, right?" Shian asked. "Hmm...not really. You see..." Grandpa Enzo was about to say something but changed his mind. "Nevermind, you're correct."They left the room and he led Shian down the long corridor, the walls where bare with nothing except the windows.'I thought they were rich, aren't rich families suppos
Shian and the blind boy in the conical hat fell on their butts with a thud, the sound waves from the shout was that powerful. Luckily their ear drums didn't burst.Grandpa Enzo could be seen standing in front of the open double doors, he walked down the stairs and stood between Shian and the blind boy."Why where the two of you fighting?!!" Grandpa Enzo said with a vein bulging at the side of his head at the lack of a reply from any of them, he was getting really angry that they where just staring at seemingly nothing in particular without even making an attempt to answer him. This was the first time Shian saw this part of Grandpa Enzo, he always appeared to be a gentle old man, but when he snapped, all the image of a gentle man was replaced with the aura of a predator ready to pounce on its prey, Shian was terrified to the point where he answered automatically without thinking of what he was about to say."I don't know." Shian said.This reply seemed to only make Grandpa Enzo more an
Ryan almost vomited blood from the amount of anger he was feeling at that moment. Grandpa Enzo laughed loudly from the side, to him the two youths where putting up quite a show and he was enjoying every bit of it. He had noticed their hostility towards each other before they entered the dining hall but just ignored it.Ryan without warning lunged at Shian and kicked him in his chest, flinging him out of his seat and scattering all the food on the table. Grandpa Enzo barely had enough time to react and all he could do was hold Ryan's leg before he could deal another kick to the already down Shian.Everything happened within a split second.Shian slid back for some meters before finally coming to a stop. He clutched his chest with his face down, he breathed in and out heavily.As he received the kick from Ryan, a memory surfaced in his mind. He remembered something his father told him before he died, his father told him how he ran to Eric Solar for help when he was kidnapped, but was pu
Shian walked down the stage and stood still waiting for Grandpa Enzo.Grandpa Enzo picked up the unconscious body of Ryan and left the room, Shian followed closely behind.They made their way down the long hallway filled with several doors leading to different rooms, Grandpa Enzo entered a room and placed Ryan on a bed, he tapped his wrist where there was a black watch and spoke some words.Some minutes later, Shian heard a noise that sounded like a drill at work, he turned to look in the direction he heard the sound and was surprised when a gust of wind hit him, almost throwing him back. "A speed ability." Shian muttered to himself.He followed the direction of the wind and saw a young man and woman in the room, they both had blue clothing that had the Blackwill's crest on the left side of their chest, the man was carrying the lady in his arms, he carefully placed her down and the lady got to work, she went over to Ryan and knelt down by his side, she stretched her hands over him and
It was a bright and sunny day, and Shian was feeling energetic, he jumped out of bed and cleaned himself up, he put on some clothes and tied his hair back, some weren't long enough to reach the head band and dropped down the sides of his face. He looked at himself in the mirror for a long time and smiled, his glittering sapphire blue eyes, his smooth skin and his tall muscular frame and long white hair made him handsome, he wore a blue shirt and a black pair of trousers, everything coupled together, he looked like an award winning model."Damn I'm handsome." He said out loud."You wish." A reply came from his side.Ryan was standing by the door, he had been watching Shian gawking at himself for a while and only spoke when Shian commented on his handsomeness."WHAT THE!!!, You're supposed to knock before entering, what if I was...""Dude, I can't see, remember?" Ryan cut Shian short."I know that, but still, have some manners." Shian said with a dignified expression on his face.Ryan la
The large and massive gate stood before them in all it's full glory.Shian and Ryan gawked at it speechless, the large circle gate was one of the highest thing they had ever seen in their entire lives."So much energy." Ryan mumbled.Shian who was a lover of weapons, studied the intricate design of each weapon. 'The seven weapons represented the seven sins. A sword, a spear, a...'"I wonder what will happen if that thing falls."Shian's thoughts were interrupted by Grandpa Enzo's words.A vein was seen popping up on Shian's head as his eyes twitched. 'Bastard!! What do you think will happen if that hulking behemoth falls, it'll cause a large earthquake and the earth will probably shift from its orbit. I just wonder how you think sometimes YOU ANNOYING OLD MAN!!!.' Shian cursed in his mind but didn't dare say his thoughts out loud for fear of what Grandpa Enzo might do to him. Shian calmed himself down and jumped down the vehicle, Ryan followed suit and the trio began to walk to the g
'Did...did they just kill two students!!?' Shian was beyond shocked. 'What kind of test is this where they just go killing students like they're slaughter pigs!!?'"I.. i.. i want to go....home." A girl's voice was heard.Sweat was rolling down the students faces, every bit of courage they had summoned to walk to the platform ahead of them was crushed brutally as they watched two students being killed right before their eyes, not even their remains was left. A loud booming voice was heard once again."No one is allowed to leave until the test is over, if no one moves, he or she will be tortured before being brutally killed."Immediately after those word were said, the student who wished to go home fainted on the spot, while another female student peed her pants."We need to start moving!!." Shian immediately said to Ryan and reached out to pull his hands."Relax dude." Ryan started and earned a frown from shian. Ryan immediately pulled him closer and whispered some words into his ears
