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
Omnix: Celestial system chapter 4: Survival!
Survival. In a difficult or life-threatening situation, the human mind always found a way to survive, it was sort of a reflex action. The monster as if having given them enough time to talk, screeched loudly while charging forward. "Krrrrchhh!" Mister Heights also charged in while tightening his grip on his axe. He lifted the axe above his head and slashed down on the monster, but it was too fast. It easily dodged it and slammed him away. The other hunters, seeing their leader hurt quickly rushed in to help. Jason, who made use of a broadsword, screamed while swinging down hard on the monster, it easily dodged him and stabbed its claws into his shoulders. "Ahhh!" He screamed as he was thrown away by the monster. The long-range hunters who made use of weapons such as arrows and the like fired continuously at it, but it evaded them all by flying around in the air. It swooped down at a frightening speed while spinning its body around like a drill with its wings sprea
Omnix: Celestial system Chapter 5: Host found
The hunters fought bravely, dealing a lot of damage to the monster, until they lost yet another hunter. However, at least the monster had visibly reduced in speed and strength. "Just a little more, and we can get out of this freakish hellhole," they all thought. As Hal went in for another strike, the monster suddenly raised its already damaged wings and swung at him. He managed to slightly tilt his body backward but still got stabbed right underneath his heart. "If it had been any bit higher than that, I'd be dead by now," he thought as he spurted blood out of his mouth. The monster swung him away and he ended up getting thrown beside the chair made up of metallic scraps. "Hal! Hal!" He had an urgent voice call him and looked up to see the worried look of Freya running towards him. "Freya? What are you doing here? I thought I told you to run." She knelt beside him while quickly trying to heal him. "I couldn't, I just couldn't" He looked up at her and smiled. "F
Omnix: Celestial system Chapter 6: System activated!!
Hal was surprised by the familiar feminine voice coming from the corner of the hospital room and hurriedly turned his head to look. "Are you okay?, how are you doing?, hope you aren't feeling any pain?" She asked a series of questions without taking a breath. "Bethany? I didn't know you were around, and yh, I'm fine, or at least I think I am." Hal was quite surprised to see his little sister standing there in the middle of the room with eyes that Indicated that she must have cried herself to sleep last night. She threw a scrutinizing look at him as if to confirm his answers through her eyes before her breathing became irregular, angry. And then as soon as Hal assumed a defensive position, she began punching him in all the unguarded parts while almost shouting. "I told you to stop getting hurt! Do you have any idea how worried I was?" ".... I'm sorry." "Do you want to die and make me twice an orphan? Don't you know how much you mean to me?" ".....sorry" The strength
Omnix: Celestial system Chapter 7: Penalty Time!!!
*Warning: Incompletion of daily quest will result in appropriate levels of punishment. Hal reflexively let out a long chuckle after confirming the contents of the message. "Ha, haha....can this system be joking with me?" Was this what the growth and reward stuffing the system was talking about? "Mere exercises?" "Pfft!" "If anyone could get stronger by simply doing a list of exercises, who would be willing to go through so much hardship, then...?" "Bollocks." 'Urgh. I don't care anymore.' Hal simply lay on his bed as he wordlessly stared at the ceiling. As he lay there doing nothing, his thoughts ran through all that had happened ever since he got to know about the system. Everything that has happened since then, seemed out of the normal, especially the issue of his survival from that dungeon. "So what if... ?" What if something could change? "Could it help me grow in strength...?" As his thoughts were filled half with curiosity about the system's words
Omnix: Celestial system Chapter 8: Daily quest
Chapter 8 "Fuck!" Hal screamed as he endlessly ran through the cave-like passage with the Craptor hot on his heels. He had been running for over one hour now, and the monster didn't seem keen on giving up. At least the matter wouldn't have been this worse if he had the Teknovo-T71 on him. Even though he could only draw very little of its powers, it would still have helped alleviate the issue of running about a little. "Hey system, can't you at least give me a hand?" Hal called out to the system but got no reply. "You stupid system, is this how you plan on increasing my strength? Sending me to my death?" "Well, I don't want your system again. Just get me out of this hellhole and leave my life!" Hal continued screaming as he ran like a deer while continuously nearly managing to evade the monster's attack. "Ptoii!" A green substance was shot from the Craptor's mouth as it gave chase. Hal, who had slightly turned to look behind him, saw the green substance just in

Chapter 46:The Plan (2)
As soon as they had entered the Gate, the Hunter who was also a alcoholic stood to his feet, unsteady.Shaking as he struggled to find his balance, with the bottle of beer in hand."Do you guy's know, that you've all tied your future to a tag of amateurs?" He said, his voice surprisingly clear for a drunk."Yeah, you're right." Another person voiced his thought in agreement to the alcoholic."Hahaha, and yet you agreed to the deal, fool." The alcoholic mocked the other guy, as if he had not also signed the contract."But you also did." The other guy retorted.The conversation between the both people opened the floodgate of words from the remaining Hunters. Everyone began speaking their minds now."What will happen if those two get killed inside the dungeon?""Will that mean we wouldn't receive our pay, and would have just wasted our time coming here?""Ahh, why did I even agree to the deal, I should have known they were nothing but a set of amateurs !""Hey, wait, those anyone knows t
Chapter 45: The Plan (1)
Next morning.Hal went downstairs after receiving the phone call, only to find a huge van parked outside.".... ? !" Even before he could say, "Who in the name of the Blights do you think you are?", the driver's window rolled down automatically. And the smug smiling face peeking out from behind belonged to...Sir Jack."Come on in, Hal!" He said rather enthusiastically.Sir Jack stuck his hand out the open window and slapped the side of the van like it was an old-time friend.He was putting on black tinted sunglasses, and his long hair, which was usually rolled up in a bun, was loose, flowing down his neck and resting on his shoulders.Apart from the fact that he was in his Hunters get-up, the man looked like he was going to a relaxation spot rather than a dungeon raid, carrying around him a fresh vibe as he flashed a one-sided grin towards Hal.He radiated a casual, breezy confidence.After scrutinizing both the van and its owner, Hal walked to the other side and climbed into the fro
Chapter 44: The invite and the plan.
The distance between Sir Jack and Hal wasn't much, so Sir Jack quickly got to where he stood.He stopped in front of him, the weird smile now washed off his face and replaced with a slightly solemn look.He fixed his gaze on Hal for a few moments, his arms crossed over his chest, not saying anything,, and then suddenly, he said."Will you become part of my team Hal?." He asked, the solemn look still carved into his face."We would work together, and participate in future raids together." He continued."I've seen you fight upfront and know your potential, I think you would be a good addition to my team." He ended, his brown eyes shimmering a strange light._Ah, this is totally unexpected. I knew he had seen me fighting, and he was slightly aware of my capabilities, but to think he'd want to add me to his team? Definitely not expected. I thought he had trust issues with me, but now he is personally inviting me to his team, as he forgot all of the weird incidents surrounding me. My re-aw
Chapter 43: System blessings.
Next morning.It was around 8 in the morning, and Hal had just finished taking his bath. As he came out of the bathroom, scrubbing his wet hair with a towel, his phone suddenly rang out, the tone playing wasn't a song, but just a tone.A tone that sounded like thick drops of rain beating on the pavement of walkways. A soft, sharp pattering of rain.He loved the calm comforting sound and chose to use it as his ringing tone.When he looked at the caller ID, it was who he had been expecting.They spoke for a few seconds, Sir Jack giving the location of where they were, Hal taking mental notes of it.After the call ended, Hal dropped his phone and quickly dressed up.His sister had left for school already, so he didn't leave any note before going out.[Skill: 'Dash' has been activated.]He activated the skill 'Dash' as he headed to the location of the raid.*****The B-Rank Gate shimmered with unnatural hues, warping the air like heat waves on asphalt.

Grrrrmmh! Grrrrmmh!Hal stood at the edge of the road, watching the sun dip beyond the horizon, painting the sky in fading streaks of orange and gold. A loud, guttural sound echoed in the air.Grrrrmmh!He flinched. “What the... Where is that coming from?” He spun around, eyes scanning the quiet street, searching for the source of the eerie sound. But nothing stood out. No monster. No wild animal. Just the wind brushing through the still evening.'Weird... must be hearing things.' He shrugged and turned to leave.Then, he stopped mid-step, face scrunching up as a sharp pain twisted through his gut. His hands shot to his stomach.Groan!The rumble came again, more urgent this time.Grrrrmmh! Grrrrmmh!Hal blinked. Then his expression deadpanned. Oh, for crying out loud… It’s my stomach?!He scoffed, shaking his head at himself. Here I was, alert like a soldier on night watch, and it turns out my own empty belly was the beast in question. Smooth, Hal. Real smooth.His stomach continued
Chapter 41: Bullying the Bully
With excellent timing, agents from the Organization's Investigation department arrived in front of the Gate. Their eyes grew round as they watched only two men walk out of the Gate, ten had entered. One of the agents tried walking up to them, but before he could get there, someone else did. "Hal! You're back, hope you aren't injured this time around." They playfully yet seriously asked. "I'm totally fine, as you can see," Hal replied. Of course, it was Freya who was probing for his physical condition. She couldn't help being a caring person, even though She was no longer a Hunter. "What of the others, they didn't make it?" She inquired again. "No," Hal said. "Mister Heights?" She asked more concerned this time. "Unfortunately, no. No one did, except for me and Sir Jack." Hal said with a firm tone and held her hand in consolation. She was mourning Mister Heights, poor girl if only she knew what type of being he truly was. Well, even if she knew, she still might forgiv
Chapter 40: Sir Jack!!
In the partially dark passage of a cave, two shadows could be seen dancing along the walls of the passage. And if one paid rapt attention, they would hear the almost silent shuttling of feet on the crude surface of the passage grounds. Hal and Sir Jack came to a stop in front of an opening in the walls of the passage. Inside it, they could sense the numerous auras emanating from it, and also a particularly thick aura. "Hmmm...so apart from the Boss monster, there are also Hobgoblins here, huh?" Sir Jack mused while scratching his beard. "It appears so," Hal said calmly. Huff! Sir Jack made a sound that suggested that he was exhausted, before bringing out his Katana and said in a mid-boring voice. "Well, let's get this over with, shall we?" "The pleasure is all mine," Hal said with a slight smirk as he summoned his dual-blade Mystic. With that said, they stormed the place. The Hobgoblins, although stronger than the regular Goblins, were still weak enough to be killed by
Chapter 39: Stopping Farrell (2)
‘Effect: Fear's has been activated.]The target's (All) Stat will be decreased by 50% for one minute.] 'It worked!' Hal knew he had been able to gain the upper hand now. On the other hand, William's eye was shaking as his heart started racing uncontrollably. Since his eye had come in contact with that E-ranker's eye then, his body system wasn't functioning as it ought to. His speed, agility, and everything else had reduced, and he wasn't feeling like himself. Swish! Swish! Wounds on William Farrell's body increased one by one, as Hal moved round him in a blur. "Why, why? !" William screamed. He was a B-rank Hunter and he was still being bested by an E-rank, not to mention that he had already taken the Burst Serum, which increased his abilities. However, William stopped his thought there and then. "No! No! I refuse to be bested by a pathetic bottom-feeder!" He screamed in a fit of rage, and just as he had gotten slower, his speed increased again, but with it came some slig

"I don't have time to waste, so I'm going to end this in one hit!" William screamed while laughing like a maniac. His blonde hair was scattered and spread roughly on his face. His eyes were wide with a strange glint, and a dangerous grin stuck to his face. His muscles bulged through the sleek design of the black and silver plated suit as he folded his hands into fists, generating a huge amount of Attack Force that caused the air around his hand to compress and sent sparkles of electricity dancing excitedly around. As he was about to take a step forward, a mechanical voice went off in someone's head. Tti-ring!
