The Path To Perfection Chapter 62: Darius Survives
Darius was bored.He was so bored, even keeping track of time wasn't enough to occupy him. If not for the resident AI on the space shuttle, he would have lost track of time.The space shuttle had only so much space. He couldn't even stand straight inside.The only thing he has had to sustain himself was the canned food and bottle water that Ozia had been mindful enough to keep there. If not that he had been turned into a level 10 mortal, the little food would not have been enough. Thankfully, there was a functional toilet in the shuttle.He didn't go crazy even when he should have. Not all humans had a strong will to withstand being lonely for so long.But then again, he was never a normal human.The feeling of misery in his heart almost made him curse the one who sent him on this journey, but he had to restrain himself.The agonizing torture he experienced had caused a nearly unremovable seed of fear to be planted in his heart.Darius could feel the strength within his lean muscles.
The Path To Perfection Chapter 63: Galgamuth
He was so happy that he didn't notice the man hovering quietly above the shuttle.Darius fell to the ground out of pure happiness. He rolled on the ground, making his already messy clothes messier."Land, oh how I've missed you." He pressed his left cheek on the ground, afraid that it would suddenly disappear."*Cough*" The man in the air coughed awkwardly to draw Darius's attention.Darius froze for a split second before slowly standing up while stealthily picking up a handful of stones. He didn't look back to check who made that sound.His eyes narrowed dangerously and he bowed his head in concentration."Hab akash neh?" The man spoke out, also folding his hands on his chest.*SWOOSH!*Darius swiftly turned around to throw the rocks in the direction the voice came from.ZITTZ!The rocks hadn't even flown half the distance before they were shot out of the air by two bright red beams. "Hmm?" Darius was surprised. He got a clear look at this man's facial features.Red eyes which gave o
The Path To Perfection Chapter 64: False Gods
In the corner of large garden, a nice-looking tree with vibrant green leaves stood, casting a dark shadow due to the afternoon daystar.This green tree casted an unsettling picture in the minds of any who saw it as it was weird to find a tree with so much green leaves in this wasteland.Under the natural shade provided by the tree, Darius sat on a simple wooden chair with a cup of tea in his hand. Next to his chair was a small wooden stool with delicate and beautiful designs on its surface.Taking a sip from the ceramic cup, he closed his eyes to enjoy the taste. He dropped the cup on the stool, not before sniffing up the rich aromatic smell."I'm glad you like it." A raspy voice came from his right. Darius nodded his head in approval, his back relaxed completely against the back of the chair.To his left, the same chair and stool was also arranged the same way as his under the shade.But, an old human woman who looked to be in her sixties sat on the chair. She had long straight white
The Path To Perfection Chapter 65: Hunting
Darius lay on the bed, his mind filled with thoughts. He stared blankly at the white ceiling of the small room assigned to him. It had a nice bed, two chests filled with clothes and a nice window view.‘I'm supposed to be creating a faction for him, zero progress. What if he arrives now’ Just thinking about it caused a chill to run down his spine.“Darius!” Galgamuth called from the other side of the door.Answering the call, Darius went up to open the door. He saw Galgamuth standing in the hallway with a smile on his face.“Good morning Mr Galgamuth.” Darius answered respectfully. Galgamuth sighed inwardly, he and Darius looked to be around the same age, yet Darius acted so compliant and respectful to him. He recognised this merely as the respect giving to the strength he had rather than he himself.However, Darius was far from being Galgamuths’ age mate.“Morning Darius, How are you?”“I'm fine, thank you sir.”“Have you had breakfast?” Galgamuth.“Yes, Clancy happened to be serving
The Path To Perfection Chapter 66: Comparison
“So, are you all students of the old lady?…” Darius asked in a clear and easily noticeable accent that gave away his lack of familiarity with the new language of this planet.“Her name is Priya.” Kenji let out a soft warning, “And no, we aren't her students… some of us, I think.” He said the last part while looking back to glance at Talliu.“Sorry about that.” Darius apologized. He had only been here for a couple weeks so he still wasn't clear on what was considered respectful and not respectful. He had always referred to Priya as ‘old lady’ to the point he had even thought that was her name. No one ever bothered to correct him about it until now.“It's alright, now you know better. Hey, loosen up will you?” Stan waved off the discussion while putting one of his arms around Darius’s shoulder. This was easy for him to do because of his height and how long those arms were.This did not make Darius loosen up at all, but rather caused his body to stiffen and his mind to go hyper-alert. St
The Path To Perfection Chapter 67: Cyrix
Galgamuth eventually lead them to a clearing where they able to spot a small pond with a cluster of boulders not too far from it.Although this was a wasteland, it seemed whatever had caused the land to become like this had happened long ago and it was in the middle of recovering.The wasteland was dry but it was possible to see small ponds and some small weeds once in a while. This showed that there must be water beds beneath the ground.‘They must have wells then.’ Darius thought of how the people back at the fortress were able to provide water.They walked to the pond cautiously while Galgamuth flew higher to get a better view.Darius stood at the very edge of the boulder clusters, just a few centimeters from getting his feet wet.“Why are you smiling?” Kenji asked Talliu who had put on a strange smile at some point.“Oh, I just remembered something funny. It's nothing.” Talliu responded casually. He took out black handgun as he busied himself with arranging his bullets and inserti
The Path To Perfection Chapter 68: Mother Cyrix
Seeing the raging mother Cyrix coming after him, Darius turned into the cluster of boulders and ran, he ran as fast as his legs could carry him.Like an out of control wrecking ball, the big Cyrix smashed its plumpy sides into many big rocks, which slowed it down for some time. Even then, it was still closing in.Darius could hear the grunts of the Cyrix coming closet and closer to him. Darius had already reached speeds previously impossible for him, he just didn't know it yet.Spotting a thin but sturdy looking dry tree not too far from him at the end of the boulder forest, he pushed himself harder so that he could reach it.Upon arriving, Darius jumped like never before, narrowly escaping a nasty bite to his thighs.He quickly crawled his way to the second lowest branch before looking down. Thankfully, the Cyrix could not climb after him, it just kept on screeching from the ground.She was still conscious of the fact that her two cyrix cubs were left behind, she was not too comforta
The Path To Perfection Chapter 69: Priya
Despite victory being at her grasp, the mother cyrix was doomed to never receive it. Like a ghost hidden in the wind, Kenji ran off from the top of one of the boulders not far from the running cyrix. His katana glinted as it was positioned for a stabbing attack. The mother cyrix could sense something was amiss, her instincts warned her of incoming danger, but couldn't find out why. With brilliant precision, Kenji dropped down onto the moving cyrix’s back with his blade piercing into her forehead and coming out from her lower jaw. Life abruptly faded from the mother cyrix’s eyes, its front limbs gave out and it tumbled forward from the inertia. Kenji had long jumped off the bear with the confidence that he had delivered a killing move. He slashed the air in front of him to get rid of the blood. This revealed the glowing blue markings on the blade that matched the ones on his face. *SHING!* In one fluid motion, the katana was sheathed into its scabbard. One would be able to tell

“Priya! What was that?” Clancy came over with worry for Priya.She had previously left Priya alone because Galgamuth was present, but when she heard that loud noise, she became very worried.Luckily, from what she was seeing, no harm was done.“Galgamuth is down there,” Priya said while frowning. She faced the direction from whence the being came from.Clancy looked over. Because of the wall, she couldn't see who was there but she could see traces of a red glow she recognized too well, and a foreign green glow.“Priya, let's go.” Clancy said as she saw the intensity of this glow fluctuating.They both knew Galgamuth had encountered someone who was keeping him occupied for now.Anyone who could keep Galgamuth busy for so long was definitely not an ordinary person.And if this was to break into a fight…“Priya, we have to go now!” Clancy repeated, this time raising her voice to allow Priya to register the alarm in her tone.If this was indeed going to break into a fight, they had better

Meanwhile,Priya sat on the balcony as usual, this time accompanied by Galgamuth only.Galgamuth had his hands on the railings as he anxiously clenched down on them.“No need to be worked up, I have a feeling that things will go well,” Priya said while putting on a gentle smile.Hearing this, Galgamuth breathed heavily, “Did you get a vision?” He asked, his eyes filled with a longing for hope.Priya shook her head, “Unfortunately, no.”Galgamuth sighed helplessly.“But you shouldn't be worrying, even if something was going to happen, I'm sure a miracle will put everything in order,” Priya stated.Galgamuth turned to look at Priya with a strange look, “Miracle?” He scoffed, “I never took you as one who believes in taking chances.”Priya smiled at this, “Indeed, I don't believe in taking chances, that doesn't mean miracles can't happen.”“Miracle or not, that doesn't change things much. You're starting to sound just like Talliu.” Galgamuth said this with an awful expression.“Although h

Chapter 87: Non-human
The sudden transformation into a large two-tailed fire fox startled the enemy combatants.Rijinna, in her fox form, lunged at the nearest person to her, which was a non-human.She jumped over ten meters to sink her teeth into the neck of the non-human.“Aaaaaargh!”The green-skinned man shouted frantically as those needlepoint teeth pierced into his soft neck.For a brief moment, the rain of bullets on Rijinna stopped as the shooters hesitated to shoot their comrade, but that hesitation would cost them.Not stopping to check if her victim was dead, the fire fox went after the next person closest to her, bringing all her intent to massacre along with her.At this point, Darius and the others arrived at the edge of the bowl-shaped crater.Everyone quickly ran out of their land rovers with their firearms. Among them, a few of the combatants had gone to the trunks to take their surprisingly large guns. Darius was one of these few.His rifle was almost two meters long, sharing height with

Meanwhile.The twenty-nine landrovers all sped up after seeing the explosion. The black land rover on the other hand slowed down until the last vehicle behind it overtook it.The twenty-nine dirt brown land rovers continued onward.The black vehicle eventually slowed down. The driver opened the door casually and stepped out.*CRANK!*It was like the land rover had been suffering from having to carry a heavy burden. The noise coming from it after the driver alighted would raise questions anywhere.The driver himself had an appearance that didn't lose out to Rijinna.Standing more than six feet tall with a bald head and a stony gaze, his entire body seemed to be a statue… literally.He looked like a work of art that was carved out of magnificent grey stone. His muscles seemed well moulded and his jawline was as sharp as a cliff.Every movement of his was accompanied by a grating sound, like a stone rubbing against another stone.“Zillis, do your thing.” From the radio in the car, Darius

Chapter 85: Rijinna
One beautiful moon hung in the sky of planet Tavron. The light reflecting from the Daystar conveniently bounced off the moon, allowing the moonlight to shine on the still-recovering wasteland continent.The atmosphere seemed so peaceful and pretty, if only this silence could last till the end of time. Alas…A convoy of makeshift land rovers, thirty to be exact, rode fiercely on the dry wasteland like dirty mechanical beasts.All of them were armored, while ten of them had guns mounted on the top with someone manning them.A swarm of one hundred-odd bikes rode around this convoy, with two geared-up humans sitting on each bike.The combined roars of their engines scared away all low-level life forms while forcing the bold ones to remain rooted in place until they passed.Large centipedes and other nocturnal creatures could be seen scurrying into their burrows.Out of the thirty armored land rovers, the twenty-ninth on the line seemed a bit different from the rest. Not only was its mount

Ozia nodded his head, “Then what about your name? You need to add more to your name, your mother might have named you but that doesn't mean you can't add to it.”Al'ravee nodded back at the machine-based god, “Yes” He said, “I can feel the annoying vain calls of mortals, it needs to be extended. I never planned on leaving it just the way it is anyway.”As Al'ravee said this he looked down at his hand, the perfect grey color reminded him of someone.Al'ravee opened his mouth to name himself. “My name shall be, Al'ravee Divera Murreleous Randolez Takuti Weada Balcin…”Al'ravee listed a total of twenty-two words for his full name. Some names came from his reference to certain people or places.Space seemed to want to flow and break at the mention of that full name. From now on, unless someone knew and called Al’ravee’s full name, he would never notice.As though to prove a point, the calls that had been in his head for some time immediately disappeared. No longer was he annoyed by the na

“To think this mortal was able to derive an approximate time for our arrival, she has even seen your rough image, that's impressive,” Ozia said, his voice was laced with genuine praises.Currently, Al'ravee, Iyah, Norderline, and Ozia stood on the outer surface of the Golden Eye spaceship.“Who?” Al'ravee asked as he stared at the magnificent and humongous planet thousands of kilometers ahead.“There's a mortal who possesses the Oracle Talent in the same environment as your Darius descendant. She already knows we are here.” Ozia said, his glowing red eyes focused on one point in particular on one of the continents.Al'ravee looked at Ozia and then followed his eyes to the continent he was looking at. His two eyes immediately turned into two mirror balls as he manifested his concept of sight.He locked on to a wide stretch of wastelands, looking further, his eyes found a black fortress that seemed to have a lot of people gathering near its gate.On further inspection, he saw an old lad

Priya and Clancy walked side by side, with Clancy's hand resting on the former’s right shoulder.“Darius has successfully integrated himself into our society as an inexpensive asset.” Clancy began, her voice echoing across the long spacious hallway.“Yes, he has,” Priya replied, undisturbed by the sudden words.The walls in the hallway were a smooth light grey, as though they had been sculpted into existence, rather than being built brick by brick.“We watched him rise over the past ten years, right under our noses…” Clancy continued. “Yes, we did,” Priya said.“His accomplice, Talliu, is peacefully placing both hope and doubts in the hearts of the commune's members, hope that goes against what we stand for, doubt over the very purpose of what we stand for.”“I know.”“We could have stopped it, but you told us some years back after your injury that they would be beneficial to our cause.”“Yes, I did…” They reached the end of the hallway, taking a turn down the spiral staircase before

“Omega Vitamin?” One of the figureheads said with a grave expression. He had a short stature and had bushy black beards on his face.Darius placed his hands on the table, allowing his weight to rest on them. He breathed in and out slowly, his mind engaged in deep thoughts.“Yes, Omega Vitamin,” Galgamuth said. For some reason, everyone seemed to hover between the thin line of joy and sorrow, not knowing how they should feel.“From the letter, this Omega Vitamin is being sent here from their headquarters. How they managed to lay their hands on it is unknown, what is of concern to us is that they are sending it right into the arms of the Vaderian Cult base.”“Being concerned is one thing, doing something about it is another.” said another blonde-haired man at the table who wore black-rimmed glasses.“If this is the case what do you suggest we do?” Another woman asked.Subconsciously, they all turned to look at Priya who still had her eyes closed. “I already tried, I can't see any outco
