In the bleak silence of the forest, birds hushed themselves, as a suspicious stranger crept into the campsite, one foot at a time. A branch fell to the scampering squirrels, he hid behind a stump, with an ear out. 

False alarm, the elderly man sighed and straightened his back "It is good thing these youngsters are still sleeping!" And dusted his purple robe. Waggling the silver badge clipped to his breast, reflecting the morning sun; projecting four stars on the ruddy soil.

His almond-shaped eyes darted to the three tents, he muttered "Hmm, now which tent will that Brazantun kid would be in?” stroking his burnt beard, with fine remanets of wood chips.

"It seems I have to make a guess" he threaded to the third tent.

Draven slumbered, she snuggled closer to his bare chest. 

Envious to the core, Vernon watched over them with a sour expression. His eyes narrowed; his scan detected a threat within their area.

    Becky went to collect firewood; he lied on the mattress, holding his head within his palms, while he absorbed the content in the manual. His eyes swept through the words before his eyes closed in contemplation. His eyes fluttered open; a profound light shone from his tranquil, blue-jay eyes. “Who knew beast taming, can be so vast? Its almost contradicting the principles of science” Vernon popped next to his ear, and leaned a hand on his earlobe “Well, beast taming wasn’t very popular during my time period but it can be useful when cornered in all sides” “Draven, are you here?” Hearing Zeno’s voice, he shifted his gaze from the book “Hmm” Zeno waked inside, all the way to his bed. He took in a breath of air, said “Draven, uh I just want to say thanks” “For what?” Draven asked. “For saving me” “Whatever, it wasn’t a big deal” Draven turned back to his book, which Zeno recognized in an instant. Sniffing an o

    Draven and Zeno hid behind a stone beside the banks of the lagoon, approximately hundred miles away. Eagerly, they waited; watching the small beasts swim, creating ripped around their outstretched heads, as they lazied under the warm sun. *Splash* They turned and gasped. A large reptile crawled up the bank, water dripped off its sea-green scales, as it gleaming menacingly, warding the little critters away. As it hissed out a long tongue, puffing clouds of smoke. Ducking closer into the stone, Draven said "Is that the one?" Zeno whispered. "Yes! That's the Great Salamander!" "So, are you confident in taming it?" Zeno asked, finding it foolhardy. Uncertain, he sombrely said "I don't know, I just want to test it out before I do to real thing!" "The real thing?" Zeno gave a once-over look. 'It this guy crazy? It is still dangerous to test it on a level six beast!' "Okay let's do it!" Draven folded his sleeves

    "Yo bro, can you help me with this?" Draven said. Zeno rushed out of his rook, said with surprised tone "I guess, I stand corrected!" Draven chuckled "What are you blabbering about! Go and heal him!" and slapped his back. "Eh? If you do that, won't he strike back with vengeance" Zeno said, out of concern. Draven shot a stare to the beast below his feet. "Will you?" An oppressive force pushing his head to the floor. The Salamander groaned and sent a mental message. 'No, I won't!' Draven squatted down and patted its head, with a tranquil smile. "Then I will treat you well!" "Zeno, do you have any medicine?" Zeno said, looking through his stora

    Dust trailed behind, like the cowboys of the old west. Draven and Zeno rode their beasts through the forest, drifting side to side, past the tree trunks. "Yeeehaaa!!!" Draven howled and tossed a boomerang, he jerked to Kai's movements. The boomerang cut through the air and slashed a bird down. Draven clicked his tongue 'Another useless level 1' Zeno balanced himself on his beast' hump and swung his spear to the side, and stabbed a venom wasp dead. Drones followed behind, working overtime, and stored the beast inside a spatial space. Gazing at the distance between them, Draven hopefully said "Kai can you speed up!" "Yes master" Kai speeded his galop and closed the distance to Zeno's beast. Taking a glance to the side, Zeno’s eyes brimmed of surprise, he said "Hmm, I never knew a Salamander could run this fast?" Cockiness in his nature, Drav

    “What? Are you insane?” Zeno gripped him by the shirt, his facial features contorted in disbelief and anger.As firm as a mountain in a storm, unmoved by the situation. He replied “Yes, I am”Zeno sighed, a wave of melancholy toned his voice down to a grave whisper “Don’t you know, you can die? Then what should I say to your girlfriend?”“Nothing”Stupefied, blurted “Eh?”Draven freed himself from his grip, said “Because, I won’t die” and winked; displaying the cockiness under his suave smile.Already made up his mind to follow his thirst for thrill, Draven suddenly said “If you won’t come, then its fine. I will go alone”“Bye, Zeno. See you back at camp” Draven flipped off the tree and landed on his feet, and darted to the path, laid waste by the troupe of demonic puppets.Zeno gnawed

    Under the shade of a tree, Draven tinkered with his bracelet. "The Legend's Scroll is currently unavailable, try again after twenty-three hours, forty minutes and fifty-two seconds""So, I really can't use the system"Draven tilted his head up, sighing his grievances out "At least, I have my powers"Draven stood up and shook his earring, a puff of blue smoke floated out and formed a figure with four limbs. Kai went on his knees “Greetings, Master!"Draven snapped "What's with the act?""Get up! Stop fooling around. I want you to catch a level 7 beast?"His reptile lips parted, Kai said "Catch a level 7? Master, I am a level 6, I can at most trade blows…"Draven said "Blab... blah blah. I didn't realize I tamed a wuss! Level 7 isn't a big deal!""Yes, Master" Kai replied, he muttered under his breath "Well, it isn't a big deal for you"His sharp senses picked up his grumble, Draven said "Is there anything you

  • The Legendary System   Playing Master's Role

    Draven zapped in front of a tree with a coal-black trunk, branching out white leaves. Like a mosquito, he attached his fangs on the bark. A humansized root swished through the air and smacked him away. Draven flipped, teleported backwards. He landed on his four limbs. "So, plants that are fully demonised can attack unlike the new-borns""Let's see how strong you are?"Almost understanding the Salamander's words, the ends of its roots rose off the ground and stabbed him. While dodging, Draven thought 'Hmm, it seems to be a challenge to dodge with this stiff body!'He teleported out of the range, the roots stretched and increased their range.Veins popped at the side of his scaly head, he grunted "Now, it's my turn" Trying to replicate his original move, the pheonix's orbit.A dome of fire surrounded his body, bright cyan fire shielding him from the roots. Burning as bright as a new-born star; roots started crumbling into dust. At the speed of sound,

    The moment Kai got down, he shot a sorry look to Sax, he vanished into Zeno's necklace. Zeno said. "Come let's go! She is waiting!" dragging him to a tent. "Huh?" "She said she has a surprise for ya!" Zeno snickered, patting his back. "What is it?" Kai said. "Oh, you will know. Now go!" He pushed Kai, the panel swished open, he fell inside the dark tent. Kai turned around and hammered the panel "Hey, what was that for? Isn't mas… Draven your friend?" Dim lights lit the dark room. "Draven! Come here!" a soothing voice echoed within, she stepped into the light. Kai turned around, thought 'Who is she? Is she master's mate?' "Draven!" she strolled with a skip in her steps, fluttering her arpon up. Embracing him in a short hug, she palmed his cheek "Are you tired? Let me help you!" He blindly nodded to her bewitching voice. She wrapped her arms around and kissed him. He froze, debating or thin

Luis stood before them with a stern face. "Ahem" He turned to Luis with a wry smile, said. "Ah, Professor" "What are you two doing? Get back to your duties. I will handle this," Luis said, and stepped in front of the controls. "Yes." The supervisor pecked his head like a hen as he retreated. "Capt. Davis, activate the defence mechanism, A-103 and code P456" "Yes, Sir" Capt. Davis said. He pulled a slide from control panel and twisted it before he punched it in.

In a void, a silver blimp flashed through the cluster of rocks. Cannons on the sides rotated and fired. Thousands of rays converged and struck the ginormous space rock. It exploded into thousands of fragments.The ship heaved itself through the cloud of dust, particles ticketed against the surface, drumming on the screen of glass. He tilted his head back, dishevelling his golden hair against the glass as his body spasmed into a chuckle. "Hehe, that was a good one. " A finger flicked the photo across the holographic screen to the next one. Pride refracted in his jay-blues while he appraised the moment. He hummed in remembrance. A crystal cup lifted above his head, sparking brilliance between him and his team, while a girl kissed his cheek under the rain of confetti.A p

    Draven honestly said. “I do want to enter one of the Big Five but I am not sure on which one”“Then I can help you” Luis cleared his throat and tossed a cube in Draven’s direction. The cube rolled and morphed into a comfy couch. He signalled for him to take a seat. Draven silently settled himself on the couch and listened.“Each of the Big five have their own speciality, like Luturian Alchemy Academy, which focuses on Alchemy. Sure, there are many alchemy-based universities, but what they lack is the quality of professors, lectures, or the ability to gain resources. Which will be used to nurture their seedlings and naturally bring them fame and reputation across the universe”“Entrium University is known as the number one on white paper because they normally recruit the children of the elite and have the backing of many high-net-worth individuals and families”“So, it is a playground of snotty br

Amelia asked, clueless about the previous events since Abby didn't inform them of his situation."Its nothing" Becky shook her head."So, the match is going on?"Amelia said. "I think, before I left, Osborne was fighting that McFerreen guy."Rushed footsteps echoed within the halls. Draven shifted his gaze to the door. Arkon entered with a howl.

He shifted his head to the side, the door swung open, as a team of nurses and doctors approached the beds. Draven was about to speak, a nurse said. "Doctor, this patient is in a critical condition." "Hmm" the doctor turned from Draven's bed and headed to the bed in the corner. They huddled around, examining the patient. "Doctor, a weird infection seems to be spreading over from his external wounds. I think he is poisoned." Grim expression, the doctor ran a hand scanner down his body."Bythe metrics

    Reaching the end of the berg, the horses neighed and jumped across the large stretch of water and continued galloping. Their bands beeped as they got closer to the Hellhound's location.Seeing figures far in the distance, Pablo grinned and drew out his axe. The others followed and drew out their weapons."Let's rush to victory!"The horses jumped across and their hooves sank in the snow. Controlling their powers, the horses galloped above the snowy water. Suddenly, ice beams sprung from the ground and struck few of them, triggering the safety system and teleported them out, leaving the rest out of formation.A beam sprung before him, Pablo reined it back, the horse lifted itself to a stop; fluttering his fur cape.
