Overknight Hero Prologue : The Dark Knight [Uni]fication
"Hey, why are you dozing off for Hero?" said an average male in his twenties. "No reason." his friend replied, with a straight face. "Let's go then." The two men then walked through the forest after gathering firewood. They chatted their way to the town, where they put the firewood inside a small shack and proceeded to get payment from an old man. "Thanks for the payment as always, Mr.Woodland." "It's my pleasure, Krey-boy." said the old man. EEEEEEEUUUUUUUU!!! EEEEEUUUUUUUUUUUUU!! "This is..." "Krey, get Mr.Woodland to the safe zone !"
Overknight Hero Chapter 1 : Kirzig Village
After the misunderstanding between Xaviel and Serena had been dealt with, she and Mika guided him through the woods. On the way, Serena expressed her interest on how Xaviel managed to enter the forest in the first place. Xaviel then replied with a simple chain of “I don’t remember, I don’t know”. Mika trusts his words, though that action just made Serena doubt him even more.(If by any chance, this man who proclaims to be called Xaviel is lying. I wouldn’t hesitate to stab him with my poisoned arrow), thought Serena. By no time, the three of them had successfully exited the forest and made it to the entrance of Kirzig Village. “Halt!” said a man in his thirties. The Man who said it was none other than the Village gatekeeper. He was dressed quite similar to Serena and Mika though with a bonus of using a chest plate.“Mika and Serena, who is the man you’re with?” said The Man. “Big Bro! This is Xaviel! Mika found him while playing in the forest!” said Mika to The Man, accompanied with

(Shit! That man just stole my wallet!) Serena said in her mind whilst falling to the ground. A hooded figure ran away from her to the swarm of crowds in the marketplace.Xaviel noticed Serena’s tumble, but he didn't understand what the situation was. Serena said, “Viel! That hooded man just stole my wallet!” Xaviel who hears that suddenly moves very fast. He was running in pursuit of the man, but the volume of the crowd at the marketplace made Serena wonder if he would be successful or not. (WOW!! HOW AM I RUNNING THIS FAST?) Thought Xaviel as he ran through dozens of crowds. As Xaviel runs through the marketplace pursuing the figure, he analyzes his surroundings.(The marketplace road is moderately wide. Even with this much crowd, I still managed to get through without hitting anyone. From what I can see, the marketplace seemed to be in the form of a portrait rectangle. The rectangle is divided into 5 lines from the top to bottom. The odd-numbered line is then filled with vendors,

The pebble that was flying towards The Helper suddenly became invisible and went through him. Then, The Thief suddenly stumbled and fell headfirst onto the marketplace road.“What just happened?” Xaviel asks in confusion. The Helper, who was pursuing The Thief, binds them with a rope. Xaviel climbs down swiftly from the watchtower, not forgetting to give his thanks to the keeper, and joins The Helper. “Mister Xaviel was it? It seems we have succeeded,” said The Helper to Xaviel. In response, Xaviel smiled as he performed a body check on The Thief searching for Serena’s wallet.“Woah!” Xaviel is surprised to find a satchel, hidden in the shirt of T

Tap..Tap..Maru, who was carrying The Flicher’s unconscious body, was walking towards a medium-sized building. The building’s primary material was stone, while its roof was made out of wood. The building had a sign that said “Village Guard Outpost.” Maru then opened its door.*CreekMaru entered the building. The room was filled with four chairs spread out across the room, and at the center area of the room, there’s a front desk. It purposes as a workplace for a receptionist to do administration work. Exactly left of the receptionist’s table, there’s a metal door.Maru found another man dressed similarly to him sitting on a nearby chair. “Heyy rookie, help me open the cell, will yo

Hoff Crestia brought Xaviel to the backyard of his house. Then, out of nowhere began attacking him by throwing a knife. Xaviel managed to block the attack by throwing a rock back at the blade. The real question on Xaviel’s mind is, how many more attacks can he survive without getting any injury.FYUHHoff charged toward Xaviel while swinging his knife.At the last minute, Xaviel managed to evade and took steps away from him.Shit. That was really close, Thought Xaviel.“Impressive! Very Impressive! But you still lack what I need,” Hoff said while caressing his own blade.“Conviction?” Xaviel asks.

Chapter 66: The Will of Alfie Molosno
“Joy Soda with three glasses,” Mikaila said as she served the beverage.“So this is your esteemed Joy Soda Ankara. It’s a shame I didn’t taste the one you made at the party.” Mr. Jones said.“Joy Soda, huh?” The green-eyed man said before pouring a glass for himself. GULPAs the liquid entered his system, he formed a smile. “This is good.” He said.“Thank you. Even though I didn’t make this batch, the server here learned it from me. So it’s a pleasure to know the drink is a delight,” I said.A few moments of silence passed by as I ate the Fried Rice.“Codename?” Mr. Jones asked towards the green-eyed man.“It’s Shielder, Mr. Hebsly.”Shielder huh? No wonder he seemed familiar; we fought before. His hair wasn’t white the first time we met, though.“Nice to meet you, Shielder. I am Varenza Shankara.” I offered a handshake.Shielder didn’t seem to form any expression and grabbed my hand. “Nice to meet you, General Ankara.”As we shook hands, the air of awkwardness spread.“By the tense
Chapter 65: Unwanted Exposure
A blade was thrusting from the back of Mr. Jones’s body. It had struck somewhere around his left chest. Most probably, his opponent was targeting his heart. Suddenly, another figure appeared and grabbed the stabber’s arm. With a powerful punch aimed at the stabber’s hip, the new figure launched the stabber away from Mr. Jones.Mr. Jones didn’t seem too bothered as he carefully assessed the situation. He lifted his red right hand towards the stabber and asked, “Did Jack send you?” The stabber stayed quiet, keeping his mouth shut.“Step aside,” He said as the new figure was hushed to step away.Mr. Jones released the trigger on his imaginary gun.BANG!A red light appeared from the chest area of the stabber. Blood spilled from the stabber’s mouth. As he was coughing up blood, Mr. Jones’ chest was filled with blue light. This blue light is a part of his Forte. This Forte is known as Red Right Hand: 2nd Barrel. It works as a means to counter damage. Any damage to Mr. Jones can be transferr
Chapter 64: Thomas Hebsly of The Razor Peaks
The Fisherman and I follow Jack Nelson as the party ends instead of using a horse carriage or chariot like the other guests. They used a rather peculiar cart that used petrol and ran on wheels. I am familiar with that kind of cart. It's called a 'car' rather than a cart. People in Estovania used it quite a lot, yet they didn't first develop it. Most state-of-the-art stuff originated in Willhelmia or the 'Prince' region."That cart is very fast; how are we supposed to follow it?" I said."WOA-!" Fish shouted a little before I instinctively shut his mouth with my hands. "Shut the hell up, dumbass. We'll get caught!" I whispered as I slightly tightened my grip on his mouth. He reacted by nodding up and down. Only then did I release his mouth from my grasp."But why are you here, Vice-Boss Duke Hebsly?" He blatantly said."Don't say my name so casually. Dammit! And What else do you think I am here for? I am here to help you spy on Jack Nelson!" I replied."But the boss didn't say a thing a
Chapter 63: Idealist versus Realist
“Excuse me sirs and madam. I am here to serve wine.” A male servant went inside the table where the conspirators of Seraphinania is sitting. He placed the glass one by one, as another servant poured it down.“A perfect time for a drink isn’t it?” Oswald Leysom said enticing everyone to touch their respective glasses.“There might be some rough sides to this plan of ours. Yet, with all the people here, I am pretty sure we can pull it through quite nicely.” Ms. Eye said with confidence before glancing at Mr. Jones. “By the by, is Jones here the one who used to sell opium to the Molosno family?”Mr. Jones looks around as the attention turns towards him. “Yes. As a matter of fact, I am. Yet ever since one year ago, the distributor position for my opium is vacant.”“I see.” Ms. Eye drinks her wine before speaking again, “Then you indeed are Thomas Hebsly.”“Wonderful guess, Madam. How could you ever guess who he was?” Oswald said, making everyone else except Mr. Jones giggle. “I see. Then
Chapter 62: Idealism Born of Chauvinism
I walked with The Fisherman, Duke, and Gilman, who were now dressed as servants. They do look the part, but maybe Fisherman’s scar on his face gave it away that he wasn’t a servant.“Hey, you put this on,” I said giving him a bandage and instructing him to put it on his left cheek.“Will do, Boss-man!” Fisherman said.“Hey, it's hard to say 'Fisherman' all the time! Don’t you have a name we can call you by?” Gilman said.“Hmm, sure I have,” Fisherman smiled. He opened his mouth and said, “People usually call me Fish.”Duke flattened his eye annoyed by Fish’s and Gilman’s banter.“You know what, whatever. Fish is good enough.” Gilman said. “Oh yeah, everyone can call me Gil.”“Guys, I don’t want to break your spirits here. But you shouldn’t use your real name. We’re here to spy on people- You know what? I shouldn’t even be explaining all this to you two! Boss what the hell is wrong with these two!” Duke suddenly got heated up due to the stupidity of the other two people in our group.I
Chapter 61: The Seraphinania Union
Jack Nelson, Mr. Jones, Oswald Leysom, Diana Mitchford.These four people are the key players in this grand design.A person of power in the shadows in Hestiania. The fearsome leader of the mafias in that region, Jack Nelson. He is also the sponsor and promoter of Sophaya.The other, Mr. Jones, was a man who originated from Estovania and later formed his own Mafia family here in Heliconia. He is my boss and mentor.Oswald Leysom, A politician from Estovania, is known for his poetry and political views that are down-to-earth and helpful to the citizens of Hestiania.Finally, the owner of the party, soon to be Oswald's wife, Ms. Diana Mitchford. A noble originating from Seraphinania that is known to have quite far-right political views.Together, they represent 4 great powers: Hestiania, Heliconia, Estovania, and Seraphinania. Though maybe not the power that is open in the light but the one lurking in the shadows. Documents have been provided by Mr. Jones himself indicating that they ar
Chapter 60: Tea Party of Diana Mitchford
A few days after the situation at the safe house, rumors of Sophaya, The Screaming Cinderella’s kidnap, began to surface. No doubt, this led to many people assuming Razor Peaks was the conspirator. Even though no one has asked us directly yet, I hear words regarding the situation, particularly through the words of the woman who wore the uniform.“Thanks for the drink,” I said while sitting in the chair inside the inn I stayed at.“Thank you for the drink, Missy!” Gilman said towards the woman in uniform.Yet, she can’t help but make a scrawny face. Unfortunately for Gilman, she remembered his face, which was the man who extorted her inn for money for quite some time. I drank my morning coffee, which alleviated my drowsiness. “Boss, it’s been quite a few days. Should we start the relocation again?”As per my planning, it is imperative for Sophaya to be relocated every three days due to many parties involved who wanted to kidnap her for ransom money. Of course, I can’t take her to the i
Chapter 59: The Target is Our Diva
It’s been exactly one year since his arrival at Heliconia and his conditioning. 3 months of re-education and 9 months of training. Even from the first time I saw him, Shankara had shown potential, particularly in Forte, abling to rival wielders of the aristocrat. I believe he has now been honed into the perfect soldier for Razor Peaks. There is no doubt in his abilities and loyalty to some extent. So, today’s test will measure whether he will continue to develop or stagnate.“Sir, a call from Jack Nelson,”Now, the main event is about to start too.***Arriving at the scene, I looked at the safehouse, which no doubt had been bombarded, and noticeable damage had been sustained on the building.“Gilman, stay on the lookout when you have the chance to enter the building and proceed with our plan,” I ordered him, to which he nodded. As I began to walk towards the building, someone emerged from the front door. “I suppose you have arrived already, Mr. Shankara.” A woman greeted me. She was
Chapter 58: Razor Peaks Emergency Meeting
As soon as I went to check on Sophaya, I only found her bodyguards bodies severely injured. Someone had already destroyed and ransacked the V.I.P. room. No, I am pretty sure at least 5 people were inside. As they finished their kidnap and ransacked the room, they escaped through the intended backdoor, I had previously ordered Sophaya to go.“Sorry sir, It’s all…” Duke said.“It was my decision. It’s my mistake.”Although we lost Sophaya, we found out the motive behind the kidnapping from the members of the Billy Pickers we caught earlier. The remaining lackey blurted out all the details that he knew.From the looks of it, I don’t think he could lie anymore, but I can never be too careful.I grabbed the telephone from the bar counter and dialled Mr Jones.“Mr. Jones, emergency meeting.”***“Who talked?” That was Mr. Jones's reaction.I didn’t respond.He put out his cigarette and sighed before standing up. Me and I were now inside Mr. Jones's office. It was quite a big room; his desk
