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
Omnix: Celestial system Chapter 9: Rewards
*Note: The Teknovo-T71 is the specially designed suit used by Hunters. It harnesses the Life force of a Hunter, commonly known as Qi, and transforms it into a source of power to boost the Hunter's abilities such as strength, speed, stamina, etc. The greater the Life force(Qi) of a Hunter the greater the power harnessed. ***** As soon as Hal said those words a blue box suddenly materialized from nowhere and landed on his bed. "Huh? That's cool." "I guess that must be the random box." He looked up and could see his stat window floating in the air. The status window felt like the most important thing now cause it depicted how strong he was. Name: Hal Rodgraim Level: 1 Class: E Title: None HP:100 LF: 3% Tiredness: 0 [Stat] Strength: 7 Stamina: 10 Agility: 8 Speed: 10 Intelligence: 5 Perception: 10 (Available points to distribute: 5) [Skills] Passive skills: - Tenacity Lv. 1 - Composure Lv. 1 Active skills: - Dash Lv. 1 The stats
Omnix: Celestial system Chapter 10: A new beginning.
Hal made up his mind to do his best to get stronger. Strong enough to not be bullied by anyone, strong enough to make his way in this current world where only the strong ruled. "Strong enough to make 'em damn monsters pay." With that, he decided to focus on the matter at hand. "Now for the random box." Hal got on the bed and picked up the random box before opening it. "Huh, a card...?" Hal could see a black card with blue words written on it. "The blank card... D...? He read out. "What's it used for?" Hal stared at it as if to bore a hole through it and then the description came up. - Blank card: Gotten from a random box. Allows the Host to select a weapon from the store. 'Weapon?', 'Store?' That's new. "Okay then, how do I access the store?" "Umm....store?" Hal called out and then he could see it floating right in front of him. He could see the word 'store' written in white at the top of the system's interface. - Store: The store is used for buying a
Omnix: Celestial system Chapter 11: 1st battle quest
Hal had spent almost a week at the hospital and today was the day he was getting discharged. He looked up from his bed as the door to his room opened and someone came in. It was the nurse who had attended to him ever since he got to the hospital. She was here to discharge him. "Ah, I hope you are getting ready to be discharged?" She asked. "Yes." Hal noticed she didn't say another word after that and just stared intently at him. "Umm, excuse me, isn't there something I should do?" "Oh, sorry. I got carried away." She replied as she slightly bowed her head while blushing. "Here. If you would just sign this, you can be on your way." She handed him a few documents and he signed on them. "Ok, you are free to go." She said with a smile on her face while staring at him. "Ok?" "Oh." She opened the door and hastily left with a flushed cheek. "That was odd." Hal thought as she left. He couldn't understand what caused such a reaction from her. He walked to the
Omnix: Celestial system Chapter 12: It's grinding time!
Tti-ring [Basic-tier Kaisan Wolf has been killed.] Hal could be seen standing in front of the already-dead monster. The fight had taken less than a minute, and Hal was left dumbfounded. He ran the way the fight had gone down in his head again and was still speechless. The wolf let out a loud growl before jumping at him with its maws opened wide to tear him apart, and all he did was get into a low position and took a swipe at its neck, and the next thing that could be seen was the head of the wolf flying away in the opposite direction and its body landed on the ground with a loud thud. He couldn't explain what happened. Was it because of his newfound strength or the proficiency of the daggers? He couldn't say it was all due to his strength, after all, he was still at the E rank, so he would say the daggers played a major role also. But if he were to look at it, he wasn't like every regular rank E's. His strength stat was nearing the 30 mark, so he guessed that was also
Omnix: Celestial system Chapter 13: Level up!
[Level up!] [Level up!] [Level up!] [Level up!] As expected, his levels rose quite quickly. This was what he got for killing over 30 monsters nonstop. He had gone up four levels. He had gained a lot during this hunt and he felt quite pleased. While killing the wolves, he suddenly remembered that monsters usually dropped magic crystals. He also got to learn that certain items can be dropped from the dead monsters and could be sold in the store. Therefore, right now, he has 35 magic crystals and 20 wolf spines stored in his inventory. He was hoping they could fetch him a good amount of coins. Hal looked around him and was quite surprised by the level of havoc he had caused. But this wasn't enough for him to clear the dungeon, and he knew exactly what needed to be done. Hal raised his head and looked in a certain direction. "It's giving me the creeps." There was a reason he hadn't been able to clear the dungeon and that was because of the existence of the
Latest Chapter
Chapter 22: Happy Birthday!
It has been two days since the incident at the C-ranked gate. Today was the first day of June, which meant they just entered a new month. But to Hal, it wasn't because it was a new month that made it special to him, no, it was because today was a special day for his little sister. Today was her birthday, and she was going to be 17 years of age; today, it was per the course that Hal had woken up extremely early today, to make preparations for the celebration of her birthday. As he stood, making meatballs by the slab in the kitchen, the lady of the day, his little sister came into the sitting room. As soon as she entered, she began sniffing around while rubbing her eyes from sleep. "Huh? What's this?" She asked groggily. "Happy birthday!" Hal excitedly shouted. "Huh?" Bethany was shocked and stood rooted to the spot. She couldn't believe her eyes, the whole room was decorated with birthday ribbons and balloons. Her brother Hal was even putting on a blue cone-shaped cap
Chapter 21: Blessed
Only after Jack was satisfied did he let him go. Davies took a step back after being released from the hands of whom he now considered a brutal weirdo. 'I mean why would anyone get so angry over such? All because I didn't know the name of an E-rank Hunter, an E-rank for god's sake!' He thought as he smoothened his clothes. "How am I to contact you when I do get the name, sir?" He asked. "Of course by collecting my contact!" Jack replied. "Here." He passed his contact card to Davies, who collected it, closed his case file, and hurriedly left with a bow. He and his car left as quickly as they came. As soon as he left, Jack looked in the direction of Hal, and as if by a magical connection, Hal also looked and their eyes met, and stayed locked for a moment, Hal smirked before walking up to him. "What do you want?" Jack asked as soon as he got close to him. "My reward as per the agreement of our deal," Hal said coolly. "Huh." Sir Jack grunted, but still brought out hi
Chapter 20: Close shave
As he was about to start talking, the dungeon started shaking, which indicated that the ten-minute lapse time had been completed, and it was now time for the return gate to appear. Explain yourself probably, now, or else I will put you down!" He increased his strength on the Katana, to put some action to his words. "Ok, sir. So as I was saying, I am an E-rank Hunter, or should I say was, as I have been reawakened!" "Huh? You were reawakened? Pfft!" It seemed like my story didn't appeal to Sir Jack, which meant I needed to add more spice to make it more appealing. "Well, the thing is, I just got reawakened a few weeks back during a raid with my squad that went wrong. You must have had it, right?" "No, I didn't!" Sir Jack was serious now and twisted his blades in a fast and weird way that sent his daggers flying, and quickly pointed the tip of the sword to his neck. "I don't have time for this, so you better give me a good reason not to drop you now." He said with a mean loo
Chapter 18 B: Just do it.
Author's note: Sorry guys, there was a mix-up in the release of chapters 17 and 18. Readers are advised to read this chapter immediately after chapter 18, for a better clarification. Thanks for your understanding {^_°}. 'The exoskeleton looks pretty tough...can my dagger even damage it?' Quite obviously, a dagger would have a lesser effect on such a carapace than a longsword, which Hal used before. So, if he wanted to cause a deep wound, he needed to strengthen his attack. With that thought, he returned the dual-blade Mystic to his inventory and summoned the daggers he got from his fight against the boss monster of the rank D dungeon. Hal calmly summoned the 'Steel Talons of Kaisan Lycan.' Swish! It appeared in his hands like it had always been there. "Steel." That was what Hal chose to call the dagger. The reason why he chose to use this dagger was because it was of a higher class than Mystic, hence; it was more durable. Hal took deep breaths as he ran towards t
Weird.
Sharp gazes Tense breaths Expectant hearts. The rest of the Hunters, who had also arrived, looked and held their breaths, in tense expectation of a fight that was supposed to be between an E-rank Hunter and a B-rank Hunter. But could Hal, the E-rank Hunter, actually be called one? Considering the level of skill he showed against the boss monster, which made him seem unfazed, fighting against Sir Jack was a B-rank Hunter with years of experience. But that wasn't true. Hal was thinking of how he was going to combat a B-rank Hunter with years of experience under the belt and proficient use of the Katana blades, with nothing but a pair of daggers. Hal's grip on his daggers tightened. The air between them was charged with something unspoken yet unmistakably dangerous. Sir Jack stood firm, katana still humming from the force of his swing, his eyes locked onto Hal like a predator sizing its prey. The breeze settled, but the weight of the moment did not. Hal’s heart pounded, not
Chapter 18: Abnormal E-ranker
The Hunters couldn't believe their eyes, as they watched the lone figure battle the monster. "Just who could that be?" They all thought. All members were accounted for, including the dead, so just who was that? But they never knew the so-called E-rank they brought in was the one fighting against a King tier monster. Even though they were watching from afar, those attacks were so ferocious they sent shivers down their spine. However, that man was effectively evading all the attacks and even seemed to have the upper hand, as he was getting closer to the monster and posing more threats to it. As everyone was wondering who that was, Sir Jack quickly made use of the eye lens piece attached to the helmet and zoomed in on the fight. "Huh!" He let out a gasp, not believing the face that showed in his lenses. It was that of the E-rank Hunter, he had hired. Jack felt his brain shut down for the slightest second, as he couldn't believe the smooth and efficient movements coming from
Chapter 17: Supreme Solstice
The sound of swords cutting flesh, and the sound of heads being ripped off by monsters could be heard, and the smell of blood and gore filled everywhere, this place could have been said to be a battlefield, except the battle was between just twelve Hunters and a horde of monsters, so it could almost be said to be a one-sided massacre. "Retreat!" The voice of Mr. Jack could be heard calling out to the rest of the Hunters, as the monsters were just too many and couldn't be dealt with head-on by just a couple of Hunters; that would be suicide. If they were going to win this thing, they needed a solid plan and fast. "Everyone, head towards that cave." Mr Jack shouted as he pointed towards a cave a couple of feet away from where they were fighting. The rest of the Hunters yielded his call and started running toward the cave while still fending off the monsters. "Ah! No, no!" A Hunter screamed as he was dragged by a monster while running before being torn to pieces by its mates. "
Chapter 16 ***
chapter 16 Hal only needed two minutes to race to the designated location, and upon arrival, he noticed that a crowd had already gathered. The man who appeared to be the leader of the group waved his hand at Hal. "Welcome, young man! You must be Hal Rodgraim, right?" He said enthusiastically. "Yes, that's me," Hal replied. "Great! I take it you've seen the terms needed to participate in this raid?" "Yes, sir." "And you've agreed to them?" "Yes." "Good, then let's get going." Before proceeding, Hal took a moment to study the expressions of each team member. The leader, a tall and lanky man with some scruff on his chin and long hair, wielded two katanas and appeared to be in his early forties. The other members of the team seemed unremarkable, so Hal didn’t spend much time observing them. The team consisted of six C-rank members and two D-rank members, with the leader being at the B-rank, they seemed quite strong, so their claim of handling all the killing di
Chapter 15: Double gains??
A person stepping outside the house in the early of dawn would inevitably be cautious of their movement. Well, they might end up accidentally waking their family members, after all. That was Hal Rodgraim silently opening the door to his home so that his sister wouldn't wake up from her sleep as he was on his way out to perform the daily quest. But, then... "Going somewhere?" "Eh?" "I said, are you going somewhere?" "Ah, actually you see, I was just on my way out to get some groceries." Hal said with a wry smile and sheepishly scratched his head. "You sure?" She said as her eyes formed into slits. "Yh." "I promise I won't be late." Bethany's eyes suddenly turned into circles as she made a puppy face. "Well then, could you get me a Maves Chocolate bar?" Hal displayed a contemplating look "Please!" She said as her eyes became more round. and seemed to get larger. "Ok, ok, I will." "Thanks!" Hal smiled as he walked to his sister and ruffled her ha
