Chapter: *An* *Unexpected* *Guest*
Parker immediately somersaulted in the air and landed, blood streaking out of the corner of his lips, an unmasked fear covered his expression. His internal organs was almost out of place and the tremendous force was still rattling through his body, Parker quickly steadied his breathe and regulated his internal energy to suppress the force, causing his face to turn almost pale blue.However, Sharon and Roy Kent fared worse, they laid on the ground, almost unconscious and bleeding from all orifices, especially the newly recovered Roy, his breathe was ragged but he managed to keep his eyes and consciousness active by biting his bottom lips deeply till blood dripped downwards, further staining his robes.The explosion kicked off a blinding dirt and dust, leveling the surroundings into nothingness, after the dust had settled, Syrie's figure appeared very distinct and less hazy than it was when the dust covered everywhere. A gigantic wall of flames shot up into the skies, smearing the already destroyed terrain with it's heat, increasing the temperature by several degrees, surprisingly, there was not a speck of dust or injury or blood on Syrie, infact, apart from his constantly changing expression and mysteriously powerful radiation of condensed energy rolling off him, one might not even know, he had just suffered an attack.Parker's eyes widened with shock, Parker knew quite well, that he was a top qualify cream of the crop Silver ranker although not yet half step or at the absolute peak but he knows that apart from a gold ranker, there's not much people that can actually stand grounds with him especially when he goes all out, he was one of the best in his generation and although, he wasn't widely regarded as an absolutely monstrous genius, that title belonged to someone else in the clan but he was definitely in the top 30 strongest in the younger generation but even he was badly injured and if not for his adept mastery of his clan's starry art, he would have been like Sharon and Roy.But seeing, Syrie coming out unscathed despite taking majority of the force of the blast, then he couldn't help but wonder what kind of terrifying clan does Syrie come from and the worse part is, he doesn't look much older than them, although most practitioners can suppress their age and remain youthful for a long time. Parker quickly placed Syrie and the terrifying clone of the president on the same level and he's quite sure, he hasn't even seen a tip of Syrie's abilities. But if Syrie can be this powerful then their attackers must be---"Well, Well, well.. If it isn't Syrie Milburn" A strange yet enchanting voice sounded out, it sounded like it came from everywhere but nowhere.A group of green robed people comprised of men and women walked over, the defacto leader being a fair skinned man with a tall forehead, the bridge of his nose long and straight as a snowy mountain. His eyes were long and narrow, as were his proportionate eyebrows, and he had a delicate yet seductive aura.However, Syrie and Parker didn't dare underestimate him. The fair skinned man radiated a deep and unmeasurable aura that came not from his appearance or outlook but his innate constitution. They were escorted by a withered looking old man, he practically had no facial muscles anymore, looking like a withered corpse under the sun rays, his eyes looked faxed, the eyeballs completely motionless."Syrie Milburn? What are you doing here?" The man old man asked in a horse voice, as if he had not spoken in a long time, shortly after the strange voice.Syrie's facial muscles twitched uncontrollably."Taking worldly experience, sixteenth Elder Emeka!" Syrie took a mouthful of breathe and steadied his emotions, his slightly worried eyes turned almost as pitch black as the night sky without the moon and stars.The fair skinned man let out a pearl of laughter, traces of mockery and contempt could be heard within it."Worldly experience? Sounds like you're taking a vacation here" The man shook his head"Why did you attack me earlier ruthlessly? Can't be a mistake, yes?" An imperceptible flicker flashed across Syrie's eyes.There was no need for a story, Parker could already sense the tense atmosphere building up between the two parties, it was quite clear, Syrie and this unknown people have a huge animosity and they're most likely from the same sect or clan, judging from the insignia pinned on their chest, it had the same character as the ones just recently seen on Roy and Sharon's robes."Hahahaha, I thought I saw an imposter with our family's insignia and I decided to apprehend the person, you know, there's alot of fools masquerading as a member of our family these days, can't blame me for that" The fair robed man chuckled, his words hinting something.Almost immediately, Syrie's expression grew dark, his muscles were trembling slightly, it took quite a while for him to calm himself.The fair skinned robed man noticed these changes and a sinister smile cut across his face, a noticable glee could be seen in his eyes as if he had gotten the desired results of his words."I see but couldn't you have investigated enough before attacking? What if I was injured, eh?" Syrie's voice grew deeper and thicker, traces of anger wasn't hidden within it."Hehehehe, but you weren't, if you were, you could only blame your lack of ability" A terrifying glint flashed across the man's eyes.The archaic looking man cleared his throat"Well, Mr Milburn, you shouldn't be outside the clan at this perilous times and for worse, in this backwater place, I suggest you return to the clan" On the surface, it made sound like a suggestion but deep within, it was more of an order.Syrie stepped forward and cupped his fist"I'm still gaining worldly experience and my time hasn't elapsed, and don't worry, Elder Emeka, like you said, this is a backwater place, so no harm can come to me except I intend it to" Syrie bent his back in an almost 90°, his voice tone was polite atleast compared to the way, he addressed the fair robed man.Elder Emeka chuckled and waved his hand, following in tandem was dazzling golden door that radiated incredible might.What is this?!! Even my internal energy has grown so sluggish, it can barely move.Parker's eyes widened with shock, even clone of the president didn't casually or forcefully suppress his internal energy, the only person he could think of doing that was his father but his father was a peak expert in the gold rank and even his father would have to make an considerable amount of effort to suppress his internal energy yet just the aura radiating from this mottled looking door casually suppressed his internal energy to the point, he could barely circulate a thing. To say he was terrified was an understatement."Syrie, you and young Adebayo are now tasked with looking for a certain item, as for the details, Eric will fill you in" Elder Emeka's voice still rang in the air after he vanished into the door.The golden door faded as well, leaving Eric and Syrie in a standoff, the former had an arrogant smirk on his face, the latter's expression was dark.A new beginningA childlike blue figure with a humanoid appearance was washing its face in a crystal clear river, mumbling some swear words in the process."What do I have that others do not possess? Why always me and no one else? Why do I have to carry these burdens all by myself…" balfrog was squatting by the river, busy complaining about his bad luck when he saw a giant body drifting slowly in the river.He ignored the body at first, but his golden eyes flashed with a strange light when he saw the floating man move slightly."My luck is not that bad I think, hahaha…the river gods finally smiled at me. I finally found someone to shift all this bad luck to." Balfrog, with open arms, faced the sky and laughed like a mad man…ahem…a mad child.Water splashed everywhere as he ran toward his God-sent helper.When he finally got near him, he dragged the floating man ashore, with all the strength he could muster."Why is he this heavy? He doesn't look like someone from around here. I've see
System activation?Daniel looked round the room, to see a group of blue aliens staring curiously at him. It feels as if he was being stared at by a group of mad scientists.He then noticed that all of them were staring at the Sapa mark on his shoulder. But before his brain could try to process anything, a crisp voice rang in his mind.[Ding!!! The mischief system has found a suitable host, a system preparing to bind][System binding to host!!][Ding!!! Binding complete!!]Daniel was more confused this time around; at first, he found himself in a room full of several blue aliens staring at him as if they might eat him up any time soon. Then this unknown system started to bind with his soul without his consent. Who does that!!!"system? What kind of system are you? What is a system? Why can't you ask for my permission before binding with my soul?" Daniel dropped a series of questions for the system to answer.[Fear not, I am the mischief system, designed by the great lord ******** as c
System activation? 2While they were jubilating, a yellow haired blarf rushed inside the house, shouting."enemy attack!! Enemy attack!!!"Despite all the shouts, non of the people present in the room moved an inch. They were all looking at the newcomer blarf as if they were looking at some kind of idiot."Kapur! Calm down and report whatever it is that you've seen to us" the black haired village chief said, while patting Kapur on his back."Oh! It's actually a dream? That's good, and it felt real, as if I was there on the battlefield!!" the yellow haired Kapur calmed down, before looking round the room…the he sighed." I had a dream that we were at war with the demonic beast…the war took place at the guardrank plane, thousands of humans and beasts died that day, only two hundred blarfs lost their lives to the war.I was about to report an enemy invasion to our camp when one of our allies, the humans , knocked me out. I rushed here immediately I woke up, to report to you…or so I thoug
First missionIt was late at night, the fiery sun in the sky has gone down to sleep, and the bleary eyes of the sky were covered with the darkness of the night. Everywhere was supposed to be eerily quiet since it was almost midnight already. The birds have long gone to sleep, and the cricket was all in their respective houses, drinking hot teas, drafting music notes, and preparing for tomorrow's musical contest.All the creatures resting in the woods had no choice but to say goodbye to their peaceful night's rest, all because of some cracked, fractured, deformed voice coming out of a large room near the outskirts of the blarf village. The voice sounded as if thousands of people were singing at the same time, with each person using a different tone.Bad luck for all the inhabitants of this forest, balfrog has decided to fix his one-man concert to today."mummy!!! The music assassin is around, I'm scared!" A young mouse ran out of his room to meet his mother who was sleeping amongst a l
After the world-wide blackout that took place thousands of years ago, the earth (also known as the blue planet) gave birth to all kinds of strange and mythical creatures like monsters, mermaids and demonic beasts. It did not leave the humans out either, they gained access to supernatural Powers by absorbing a unique type of energy in the air called “Manna”. The human world undergoes a series of changes, but we can never change the nature of mankind. Due to the seven deadly sins, kingdoms’ rise and fall, what was once a great empire became ruins, giving rise to the invasions of monsters and demonic beasts. That marks the beginning of the first war. Somewhere on this blue planet, amidst all myriads of empires and nations in this world, lies a big nation flowing with milk and honey. “Sapa nation” as we all call it. Sapa Nation, a kingdom filled with all kinds of treasures and resources, ruled by rich and powerful men… but ninety percent of its citizens are poor, sixty percent go to
The genesis of chaos 2The protest has gone far, more than anyone can imagine. Many international bodies and organizations were waiting patiently to interfere and see if they could fish in troubled water.Both righteous sects and demonic sects joined the protests, the news was spread throughout the nation through the use of advanced recording crystals…The nation's guards were helpless, they could only do the little that they could do…Markets were closed, and the people cultivate on the road, cultivation resources were shared amongst the protesters ( one of the main reasons people joined these protests, there was free "food".)" Our next target is the teleportation Portal, nobody must travel in or out of this nation if our demand is not met. And we're also blocking the famous bridge that leads to the leitti island of the logros empire, letting the rich feel the pain we're going through.Let them know that we're not joking!! The president must re-sign, we don't want a sickly o
The Genesis of chaos 3As a trained assassin, fathered by The most notorious and feared assassin in the history of Sapa Nation, Daniel stood his ground against the three soldiers without an inkling of fear…even though they were all in a realm above him.He retrieved his silver dagger from his space ring and activated shadow steps once again.He blended into the night, not even his shadow could be seen as he silently made his way to the one wielding the heavy ruler and attacked with the silver Dagger.A glistening silver light flashed, and the wary soldiers were surprised as the man wielding the heavy ruler clutched his neck to stop the blood from gushing out all to no avail. His neck was pumping blood, and the hand he placed on his neck to stop the bleeding was dyed red.Thud!Within a few seconds, a silver ranker didn't get the chance to say his last farewell to the world as his lifeless body hits the ground.Still, in his shadow form, he moved silently, without releasing a Tr
At the great assassins' base in the middle of bodma forest in Sapa Nation.In a room full of lanterns of different colors, arranged in rows on shelves on the walls in this large room. All the lamps were lit and a fire was dancing on each of the lanterns in this room.A little guy was walking around the room, inspecting every lamp in the room. He'll walk around the room every hour to check the lamps for any signs of abnormality and report to his superiors if there are any.As he was inspecting the room, a bright lamp at the top of the shelf suddenly flickered twice before going off. Seeing this, the little guy quickly rushed to report to his superior."What?!! The young master's soul lamp went off. How did you do it, or you didn't check very well?Quick!! Lead the way, I must see it with my own eyes. " the supervisor panicked and rushed to the soul room.When they entered the soul room, all soul lamps were burning with blue flames while one of the lamps at the top of the shelf was emit

Chapter: *Moving* *On*Thomas rubbed his chin in thought, it seems, he was struggling with something within him. "Fine! I will double your fee, Mr. Thomas. Don't you dare push it!" Hiruzen sighed. This Thomas has always been a reliable source of Intel for the family for more than a decade now but he had never accepted the multiple offers to be a part of it and the reason was because, Thomas love staying on the sideline, if he joined the Lasso family then he would be forced to interfere in any of their personal matters and this is something, he chose not to do. But this doesn't stop him from giving out information once in a while, Thomas is one of the most rooted members of the society with expanded influence into the government, sects, families and all. Although, this had incurred the ire of numerous organizations to try and silence him but he has surprisingly survived countless assassinations and ambushes. "Hahahaha. Since you have put it like tha
Chapter: *The* *Lasso* *Family*The woman had a graceful bearing and kingdom-toppling beauty, her bearing could hint anyone, she is from a noble family and her every movement exuded such grace and nobility. Her skin was pale white and looked without blemish, she looked similar to those K-pop artist in our world. The white haired man named Hiruzen raised his head and the phantom like expanse of the universe behind his back disappeared, his expression eased up a bit and became more gentle. "And we ain't a pushover, we have been existing in this sapa nation since time immemorial, almost as long as the imperial family. Talking about history, we have the deepest save the imperial family. If he thinks, he can leisurely pin some blames on us then he's sorely mistaken" A terrifying glint seemingly exploded from his eyes, causing those around to shiver subconsciously. "Indeed but I don't think, we can go head-to-head with the President just yet. The President had manag
Chapter: *Offer*Roy assessed his current condition and didn't know whether to laugh or cry. But thinking about it logically, his life and death was indeed within this man's hand. If he was at his peak condition, perhaps he had a chance of resisting the man and even successfully escape with his life intact.But as it is, he couldn't even muster a hundredth of his strength, he was almost no different from a regular human. Just slightly stronger but this little bit of strength is negligible. "Very well. Apart from getting cover from the presidential gaze, what else do I get in return?" Roy has sense an elaborate scheme in this and he was just going to be one of the little pieces. "Well, as an honorary guest of my clan, anywhere you go, you will reserve preferential treatment and we assure you cultivation resources but pertaining to the merits you have performed for the clan. And if you add the cover up then it isn't a bad offer, no?" Syrie leaned against the wall. The smile of h
Chapter: *Syrie*"Terrorist? Give me full details, Ignox" A slight crease furrowed the head doctor's brows, he reclined on his chair, a spark of light seemingly igniting in his eyes. "Ahem! The three mysterious people in your hospital sir are named Sharon Madison, Parker Lasso and Roy Kent. They allegedly attacked the President in his secret meditation chamber with the infamous Greenwood but thankfully, the president prevailed and captured Greenwood. Alas, the other three escaped and are now seen in this territory, heavily injured. There's no mistaking it, sir. The president has issued a bounty on their heads" Ignox quickly explained in detail, his expression respectful and indifferent. Ignox held not just respect for this man but more apparent is fear, terrifying and bone-deep fear rooted in him. There was no doubt, Ignox knew the monstrous background this man came from. He had simply came to this town to gain worldly experience and not even the village head knew of his backgrou
