Omnix: Celestial system Chapter 31: Re-Convicts
"Ouch!" Hal rubbed his head with one hand with a pained look on his face."Oh, sorry. Are you alright?" Freya asked again."Yes, yes. I'm fine." Hal said as he threw a stern look at Sir Jack, who also threw his head away in another direction as if oblivious to what he had done. Freya removed her hands from Hally's own and said with more emotion in her voice... "I'm so glad you made it, you have no idea how worried I was. Whenever I heard of a raid going down, I always came to the venue, not to participate in the raid, but in the hopes of seeing you." "What? Did you quit being a Hunter?" Hal was very surprised and couldn't hide it."Well, yh. After the situation that happened during our last raid together, I decided to quit. I mean, of what use is a healer-type Hunter who can't help her comrades when they need it the most?" She said with heads down, her face one of sorrow and regret."Oh, Freya, you didn't.....""Ouch, ouch! Hot! It's hot, I say." Both the gazes of Hal and Freya sh
Omnix: Celestial system Chapter 32: Goblins
Goblins were the main enemies of this dungeon. They were the weakest of all humanoid-type monsters out there and usually ranged from the Basic Tier to the Mutant Tier, with only a few exceptions of Advance Tier. So clearing this dungeon was particularly easy. "Kiieeeehk! !" "Kiiiuuicck! !" These strange-looking creatures were weak enough for Hal to fight one-on-one with before he even got his power boost. Still, Hal did his utmost best to carefully hunt Goblins with his bare hands. "Keeuk!" "Kiieeeehk!" When displaying such high combat prowess, both Sir Jack and Mr. Heights formed different expressions. For Sir Jack, it was a narrowing of the eye and a face that no longer held any doubt about a certain issue. For Mr. Heights, it was a face of disbelief. The skill shown by Hal exceeded his expectations. He just couldn't wrap his head around how an E-rank Hunter whom he used to know become so strong that he was giving him the chills. 'Scary..... really scary!' He t
Omnix: Celestial system Chapter 33: Beast weapon
The weapons that were used by Hunters to hunt monsters in the dungeons were called Beast weapons. They were made from the materials and pieces of the monsters themselves, as normal weapons could do little to no harm at all against the monsters. This was the case when Gates first appeared on Earth. The ammunition and weapons present on earth were not effective against those monsters, so someone came up with the idea of using their body parts to create weapons after a particular incident where someone had used the tooth of a Saber to kill a monster. From then on, humans started creating weapons made from the materials of the monsters themselves. But that wasn't where he was going. The point he wanted to hit was that, some weapons could create magical energies, and they were gotten only from magical monsters ranked King tier and above. When one had such a weapon, one could create a flame of fire, a ball of ice, and even summon lightning; a lot of things were possible with such we
Omnix: Celestial system Chapter 34: Kill or be killed.
Tti-ring! [Emergency Quest: Kill All the Enemies!] Lifeforms are holding murderous intent against the 'Astravor.' Kill them all to secure your safety. If you don't follow this instruction, a corresponding penalty will be given. [The number of enemies left to kill: 4] [The number of killed enemies: 0] Hal's pulse quickened. "Emergency quest?" This was new. He had received system notifications before—usually cryptic or unreadable—but this one was different. It was clear. And the way it was issued... A penalty if I don’t comply? The weight of it pressed down on him. This wasn’t a simple suggestion from the system. It was a direct order. But apart from that, there was the other thing.... 'Wait up. The words are clear this time around? What changed?' Hal thought. The first time he had seen something like that, it was written in gibberish and he had no idea what it was then, neither did he now. What could an 'Astravor' have meant? He had no idea, but he was going to put
Omnix: Celestial system Chapter 35: Sir Jack POV
"I can sense you, so there is no need to hide." Sir Jack's voice echoed through the passage.He stood in the middle of the passage, his stance vigilant, Katana at the ready, as he searched for the other B-rank Hunter, William Farrell.{1} He knew he had probably activated the stealth mode of the suit, which meant he must be close by.Sir Jack, who had a strong sense of justice, was very annoyed when he found out the plot of the so-called Hunter from the Monitoring Division of the Organization.He had taken it upon himself to correct this misconduct, by taking down Farrell and bringing him to justice."Oh, are you that eager to meet your death?" The voice of William echoed through the passage in a low dry chuckle."We'll see who will be meeting their end today." Replied Sir Jack and took a step forward, but as soon as he carried his leg, an iron claw came sweeping out of nowhere, its tips glinting fiercely as it drew a sharp arc in the air. Its destination? Sir Jack's neck.Sir Jack's
Omnix: Celestial system Chapter 1:Hal Rodgraim
The glowing eyes of the raging monster, the relentless attack of the Hunters, the fatal strike... Thud. His body slammed hard against the ground. "No!" he heard a voice scream. It sounded so distant, he thought. Why? He was dying. Hal lay motionless, staring into blank space, lost in thought. So, this was how he would die—like a weak, miserable E-rank Hunter. Worst of all, he didn't even get the chance to exact his revenge on those damned monsters. As he lay there, feeling the life slip away from him, like sand in an hourglass, he began to close his eyes. Suddenly, a blue screen appeared in front of him, with words written in white. [Potential Host found] [Do you wish to accept?] [Yes] [No] What was this? he thought. Well, it didn’t matter now; he was dead anyway, so there was no use being careful in making a decision. He decided to just choose "Yes." With that, he selected the "Yes" option. The next words filled him with surprise. [Congratulations, Hal Rodgr
Omnix: Celestial system Chapter 2: Rank E Hunter
Hal woke up to the sound of his phone vibrating, he reached out his hand to take it from underneath the pillow where he had stuffed it before going to bed last night. Looking at the screen of his phone, he saw that it was a distress call from the 'MHO', which indicated that a gate had spawned not too far from his location and that a raid was about to go down. "A raid by this time of the day. Didn't they just clear a gate yesterday?" "Why the heck had another one spawned so soon and near his location as well." Hal thought. He looked at the time on his handset and saw that the time was just a little past seven in the morning. Jumping off his bed, he tried his best not to wake his little sister and slipped into the bathroom to take a quick bath. "Luckily enough, today was a Saturday, so after the gate had been cleared, he'd had the rest of today to spend with his little sis." Quickly scribbling down a note of apology for his sister and a promise to be back as soon as he c
Omnix: Celestial system Chapter 3: Danger??
In the dark interior of a cave-like passage, Mister Heights and the rest of the Hunter could be seen, having just stepped through the gates into a D-rank dungeon. Mister Heights switched on the torch in the middle of the specially designed suit, ordering the rest to do so. The passage, once shrouded in darkness, had now been illuminated enough to walk through. **** "We've walked far, haven't we?. Shouldn't we have come across some monsters by now?". "That's right, this place seems weird." "It gives me the creeps." In front, Mister Heights suddenly raised his hands to signal for silence. "Huh? What is it?" "There is another path." Hal and the rest of the Hunters quickly rushed forward "Huh, it's true." Just as Mister Heights had said, there was an entrance in the walls of the passage, but what was surprising about it wasn't its existence but the extremely weird energy coming from it. Mister Heights quickly gathered the Hunters to address them. "As you all

Chapter 30: Loose feelings
The two men arrived at the meeting place, but Hal got there earlier than Sir Jack. The Gate had spawned in the middle of the road pretty close to residential areas, so the police officers called in to control the access to the location. However, there were only a few onlookers present. The majority of Gates the Organization took on were those dangerous ones that had been left alone for too long after their initial discovery. It was only a couple of curious, naughty kids, that loitered around, who got chased away by the officer every now and then. "Please show me your IDs." Sir Jack pulled out his wallet and displayed his ID. "I'm Jack Spencer, a B-rank Hunter, and this young man here is ....well, a colleague." He said while looking away from Hal. The cops checked the face on the ID to see if it matched the face of Sir Jack and, after confirmation, returned the card to him. "Sorry for the inconvenience, sir; you are good to go." "Yh, yh," Jack replied hurriedly and
Chapter 29: Chance!
A few days went by without any incident. Hal waited patiently for a call from the MHO but received none. However, he couldn't just wait and do nothing while waiting for the team to form, so he accessed the website for Hunters today as well. He asked around, dropping memos of his need to different freelancer Hunters, but received no reply. No one wanted to freely participate in a raid with an E-rank Hunter, except they were in a tight spot and needed a Hunter urgently to cover up the Hunter tally needed to tackle a dungeon. The same was the case with the last dungeon he raided with Sir Jack's team. They were simply in need of a Hunter to fill in the gap. 'Thanks to that, I made a lot of money, my levels went up, and I even got a new skill, too.' Should he feel grateful to Sir Jack, in that case? Hal let off a smirk 'Nah.' It was through his strength that he was able to gain all that, Sir Jack wouldn't originally have made him even kill a monster, not to talk of gaining loot
Chapter 28: Demon's Hellspawn (2)
It'd be easy to go mad from pain and wildly trash about, but that would mean losing the opportunity of proximity with the Cerberus, so Hal stayed his hand in pain, as he waited for the end of the three minutes to come, and it was almost here. '....178, 178, 180!' As soon as the timer in his head went off, Hal called on the system and finally revealed his hidden trump card. 'Collect the first reward, now!' He immediately collected the first reward from the daily quest, he had saved up until now. [Reward 1: 'Full recovery of the current physical condition' has been applied.] Swoosh! A blue light enveloped him and all depleted health reverted to their normal state. [HP: 500/500] Even his tattered left arm was good as new, in the blink of an eye. Hal didn't waste time in making his move, this was his chance, he thought. His eyes gleamed coldly as he reached out a hand and gripped the second neck of the Cerberus before stabbing his dagger right in the middle of its he
Chapter 27: Hell's Gatekeeper
Chapter 27Crackle! Pop!The closer Hal got to the burning tower, High Aflame as he chose to call it, the louder the noise of flames rampaging around grew."Can I even enter this thing in the first place?"While still in the thought of his chances of entering into that flaming building, Hal got near the entrance, but quickly came to a halt, as he sensed a strong aura near the entrance.'Mm?' He slowly surveyed his surroundings and spotted a black lifeform the size of a bull huddled in a slumber right in front of the doorway. Hal carefully summoned his dagger Steel. He walked as quietly as possible while approaching that creature. However, it was impossible to fool the olfactory sense of a monster. Soon enough, the creature sniffed the air, and its heads were raised in alarm.'Tsk tsk.' Hal clicked his tongue. The creature raised its body, fully standing, all its three heads turned towards Hal. [Hell's Gatekeeper, Cerberus] It was a huge dog possessing three heads. The name wri
