Strixes Evelyn VIII
Evelyn VIIIIf Neptune was a fusion of Tokyo and Paris, then Pluto followed the same system. I couldn't be sure since I had never stepped foot on Earth, much less in the United States or China, but people said that Pluto was a fusion between Los Vegas and Macau. In the day it glittered with new shiny buildings and at night it was a neon paradise.On the surface level, it looked like a clean city, if a unique looking one. But I knew the truth. This place was the seediest settlement in all of Aquroya. I was born here. I grew up here. I hated this city.If being back here wasn't bad enough, Pluto was built smack in the middle of the only desert on this continent. Making it hot as hell. At least my card had air conditioning. I wouldn't have survived the heat otherwise.At one point in my life, I was used to the desert heat. That was long ago. Now it was just hot. Hot as satans ass crack.They wanted me at the Pluto Branch Office, but I stopped by my new apartment first. It had an undergro
Strixes Evelyn IX
Evelyn IX"You can't mean... Project SUPERMAN experimented on children?""Children that had yet to go through puberty," Miyuki said quietly. "They did not go as far as kidnapping children from parents, but they sent their agents to pose as prospective adoptive parents. They adopted ten orphans with the promise of better lives. It was all above board, so much so that they didn't raise a single red flag. Not one. The adoption agency was non the wiser and certainly, authorities didn't pick up on anything.""What happened to them?" I demanded."Them? Do you mean the children? Or the people that ran Project SUPERMAN?""Both of them!""Division Zero is the safeguard from internal abuse of power within Sword, as you know. Zero picked up on black funds that were being filtered to Project SUPERMAN. They uncovered its continued existence and from there Zero has systematically dismantled SUPERMAN.""Were they all caught?""All of them? Of course not. Their shadow benefactor that funneled the mon
Strixes Alaric X
Alaric XI was laying in bed, staring up at the ceiling. I had accessed my strix powers quicker than was natural, but I chalked it up to being someone else. While I did have control over them, it wasn't the fine control that Yayoi and Kaya demonstrated later on.I thought I had good control, but the control Yayoi and Kaya could wield... I was like an infant. Supposedly Damien had even more control and raw power than any of his knights, but those skills didn't transfer.Why hadn't they? I could speak and read and write Japanese and French, skills I could only have inherited from Damien. I had a level of control that should have taken time for me to learn, skills that I could have only inherited from my other self.So why didn't I have all his control? Or just his raw power? I could feel that power deep inside of me, just below the surface. It felt like I was on a lake, but there was a thick layer of ice separating me from the water below. I tried to chip away at it with my hands, but I
Strixes Alaric XI
Alaric XIThat night, I dreamed about Pluto. It seemed like a silly thing to dream about, a city that I'd never set foot in, but I found myself watching the streets fly by below me. I was taking a monorail that crisscrossed above the city, watching for... Something.In the dream, I was here for a reason. There was something in this city that I needed. Something that would help me kill. Dream me marveled as the city passed, wishing he should have seen Los Vegas or Maca even once so he had something to compare it to. My dream self had been all over Artemis, but this was his first time in the City of Pleasure. Holo billboards of naked women advertising various prostitution companies mixed seamlessly with the glistering skyscrapers.Other cities, like Neptune and Xijing for instance, took architecture from the past and used that as a model. Pluto took the opposite direction, going for a city that looked like something people in the 1950s thought a future city would look like.Dream-Me wis
Strixes Alaric XII
Alaric XIIThe Ferrari- no, the Silver Rose was fast. Very fast. Instead of driving through the city streets, we took a sharp turn to a ramp that put us on the overway, high above the city.As soon as we were above it all, Kaya shifted gears and pressed on the gas. Given that every car and everything was solar-powered here, could it be called a gas pedal? No, but that was common vernacular, so I doubt it was going away any time soon.As soon as we were on the overway, Kaya took off like a bat out of hell. The car rocketed forward and she was swerving in and out of traffic with incredible ease. If I was riding with a human, I would have demanded that they slow down and stop. To pull over so I could take the wheel.According to my knights, I was pretty indestructible. Or at least a lot more durable than a human. I'd be more afraid for the human driver than myself, but with Kaya, it didn't cross my mind to try and stop her. As a strix, my dexterity was stupidly good and if she was anythi
Strixes Reborn Gamer Promo
I just want to post this here to see if I can get any interested viewers for a story I have on Webnovel. It's called Reborn Gamer and I'll be posting the first six chapters here. After this, we will be returning to Strixes uploads********************************************Chapter I: The Goddess AthenaI know you're not going to believe me, but this is the truth. It sounds crazy and insane, but every word I tell you is nothing but the truth. It's going to sound fantastic, insane, unbelievable, and everything else you can say about it.But it's the truth and there's plenty of evidence if you know where to look. I know what you're going to say; "Evidence? Of reincarnation? That's impossible." Not at all. There is plenty of proof throughout history. Take Dorthy Eady, for instance. A British woman who claimed she lived in Ancient Egypt as a priestess in the Cult of Isis. She has given a convincing account of her life before.Then there's the account of the Oklahoma boy, Ryan, who lived
Strixes Evelyn X: Hawkengale Grey and Norima Morigami
Evelyn X: Hawkendale Grey, Norima Morigami and IllusionsIn a strange twist of irony, the titan that ambushed me and sent me spiraling in my own mind got me away from my two crazy partners. Crazy is how they came off, at least. But I'm getting a little bit ahead of myself.I found out why my apartment had three rooms before I left. Not only was I being given command of this new team, but they'd have to live with me. Of course, Sword didn't want to put them anywhere else. Sword had to bother me. I was even in charge of their check-up. And of course, it couldn't be done at a normal doctor's office.Ukinoma Virus Detention Center was the sister prison to Ukinomi in Neptune. They were the only prisons for the infected in Aquroya. We were going to have to visit the prison to do checkups on my two new teammates. A special team that was brief on their augmentations was needed and they had to do it at the prison to make sure no one overheard.At least we'd be sent the new Athena Armor from Ne

Evelyn XI The cell had been cleaned, despite our request. Our escort claimed it had been cleaned before the prison received the warrant, but that meant fuck all to me. They should have known that Sword would conduct an investigation. They shouldn't have disturbed the crime scene, but Ukinoma Prison didn't seem to care in the slightest. Maybe I would write Director Shiratori and see if I could get an order for the warden to come to Sabre Tower. Get her to step through the DNA scanner. She might have said otherwise, but cleaning the crime scene would only serve to protect the strix who killed the inmate. Maybe the warden was that strix. Maybe she was using her influence to cover up disappearances in this prison. Having her coroner write false death certificates. I activated the team com: "Glen." "Yes, captain?" "When you're finished over there, I want you to go through the death records of Ukinoma Prison. Look for any abnormalities or discrepancies. Look for anything that might be e
