The planKael, Lyra, and Zephyr sat around a large stone table, deep in the heart of the forest. Maps and scrolls were spread out before them, detailing the pack's territory and Riven's possible movements."Okay, let's get down to business," Kael said, his eyes scanning the maps. "We need to come up with a plan to stop Riven before he can harm Aria or the pack."Zephyr nodded, his eyes gleaming with intensity. "I've been studying Riven's movements, and I think I know how we can take him down."Lyra leaned forward, her ears perked up with interest. "Tell us, Zephyr. What's the plan?"Zephyr smiled, a fierce glint in his eye. "We'll need to work together, use our unique skills to our advantage. Kael, your strength and leadership will be crucial in this battle. Lyra, your speed and agility will allow you to outmaneuver Riven's minions. And I..."Zephyr paused, a sly smile spreading across his face. "I'll use my knowledge of the ancient arts to weaken Riven's powers. But we'll need to be

Call for helpAkira sat in her brother's office, her mind racing with the impossible choice she faced. "Taro, I don't know what to do. Father wants me to lure Jian into a trap, but I can't do that. I owe him my life."Taro's expression was sympathetic, but his eyes gleamed with ambition. "I understand, sister. But you must think of the family's interests. Father's orders are not to be disobeyed."Akira nodded, but her heart was heavy with doubt. She didn't know that Taro was secretly planning to betray her, and that his advice was merely a ploy to gain her trust.Meanwhile, Jian Li was facing his own dilemma.

ShockedGregory College. A college that opened it's arms, welcoming to those of High-class, Mid-class and lower-class. This was a college that Elian Gray chose, and God willing, he scored the highest mark in the exams and got awarded a scholarship to study here. Even though he's been orphaned at a young age, Elian always had this dream that things will turn out better, and that's why he never gave up on life.Elian Gray walked across the college grounds, lost in thought. He had been struggling to make ends meet, working multiple jobs to support himself and his girlfriend, Aurora 'Rory' Blackwood. He had hoped that today would be a better day, but as he saw Rory waiting for him by the fountain, he sensed something was off."Elian, we need to talk," Rory said, her voice cold and detached."Hey, what's going on?" Elian asked, feeling a knot in his stomach."I've been thinking, and I've realized that I deserve better than someone who can barely take care of himself, let alone me," Rory s

Play gamesAs soon as Elian emerged from the cliff, he assessed his situation. He was battered and bruised but alive.“That little prick. Just because his father's got some dough, he believes he can do whatever he wants. Well newsflash, 'cause I'm going to make sure they regret everything they've done.” Elian muttered to himself as he got up from all the mud around him.He stumbled upon a small river nearby and cleaned himself up.“I gotta get home quick.” Elian was very much upset. How could Rory just stand there and watch him being beaten to pulp? Why didn't the other students help him? Just because he was poor and had no one to back him up? All these thoughts ran across his mind as he walked towards the street still on his wet clothes.He then found a public phone and called a local taxi service to take him back to town as he had drifted off to this unknown place.Rory's betrayal cuts him deeper than a hot knife on a butter.Back in the town, he visited a thrift store and bought so

Gamechanger[THE NEXT DAY]Elian stood outside Michael's office, his heart racing with anticipation. He had the evidence, and he was ready to confront the man who had wronged him.He took a deep breath, straightened his shoulders, and walked into the office. Michael looked up from his desk, a look of surprise followed by a sneer."Elian Gray," Michael said, his voice dripping with contempt. "I thought you were still crawling in the gutter where you belong."Elian smiled, his eyes glinting with determination. "Hell Michael, still using that crappy trash talk, it seems you ain't got anything new."Michael snorted. "You're still a nobody, Elian. You'll never be able to touch me."“Man, ain't that sick? Well, I have something I'm sure will shut you up and make you sing a different tone.”Elian pulled out his phone and played the recording he had obtained at the charity event. Michael's eyes widened as he realized what was happening. Not only did Elian show up and ruined his follow-up plan

He couldn't wait to see the look on Michael's face when he was brought to justice.First things first, Elian decided to use his rewards to upgrade his living situation. He had been living in a small, dingy apartment for months, and it was time for a change.He took out his small mobile phone and decided to phone a company he once saw in an ad somewhere.“Hello. Is this Joaquin Rentals? I'm calling to know if there's vacancy in your area. I need an apartment.”“Yes, this is Joaquin. And yes there's vacancy. What kind of an apartment do you need?” the voice of a female rang forth.“What can ten grand get me?” Elian asked.“Certainly not a villa, but something close to it.”“Good. I will be down at your office in tomorrow morning.” Elian said, a bit ecstatic. He had just used the $10,000 reward to rent a new apartment, one that going to

At wits endGarrick Gayle trudged through the rain-soaked streets, his eyes cast down at the pavement. It had been months since his family disowned him, blaming him for his father's death. The pain still lingered, a constant ache in his chest.As he turned a corner, he spotted a familiar figure leaning against a graffiti-covered wall. It was Vex, the leader of the gang Garrick had joined a few weeks ago."Yo, Garrick! What's up, man?" Vex called out, his voice laced with a hint of excitement.Garrick shrugged, approaching Vex. "Just trying to stay dry, I guess."Vex chuckled. "You're always so gloomy, Garrick. Lighten up, man! We've got a score to settle tonight."Garrick raised an eyebrow. "What kind of score?"Vex grinned mischievously. "We're hitting a convenience store on 5th Street. Easy in, easy out. We'll make some quick cash and have some fun."Garrick hesitated, his mind racing with the risks. But Vex's enthusiasm was infectious, and he found himself nodding along."Alright,

La beteOmega sat down in front of Kahn and bowed his head without looking Kahn in the eyes. It felt as if Omega was submitting himself and acknowledging Kahn as it's master. The next moment, Kahn felt a connection towards Omega as of the wolf was an extension of his own body and consciousness.“Do you understand what I'm saying?” Kahn asked Omega to check whether his guess was right.Omega nodded in response and stood back up.“Good. Now go and hunt something I could eat. Not too big and meat shouldn't be too hard to chew.” Kahn commanded Omega. Since je was under the weakened state, he barely had strength to walk and could not go to find something to eat.He thought about having something to eat first because he had no energy left in him and meat was the best source to regain strength.After Omega ran off towards the bushes and completely disappeared out of his sight, Kahn called to the system again.“System, can you help me create fire?” Kahn asked curiously.«What am I, your mothe

ServantKahn heard all the notifications inside his head. He already expected something like this to happen when he killed the red wolf and heard the Ding sound in his head.To his surprise, he not only learned how to activate War Dominance but he also broke through the current threshold of his capacity and already went past his limits to meet the conditions to unlock his War Deity Body. This means he will be twice stronger when he recovered his strength again.The first encounter Kahn had in Vantrea as soon as he entered was a life or death battle and he barely managed to survive. Who knew if eh we ended up dying here, would anyone ever know or care? He would die just a nameless death.. AGAIN.Kahn tried to focus his mind again on the notifications in his mind. There was no system panel or screen board for him to check these notifications in a list or scroll through them one by one. It was as if this system was part of his consciousness itself and somehow acted like his mind when he

He was six-feet and three-inches tall, normal white skin tone same as his previous life. He had an angled but somewhat wider jaw. His face was well proportioned and very handsome. He had bulging muscles and six pack abs. Unlike his previous life, this time his hair color was completely black and not brown. They were smooth, soft, and wavy. His hair was done from the right side from his perspective. They were long but not till his shoulder length long either. His eyes were black, unlike his former life where they were blue.

Black hair and eye color was very universal on the other hand.His built was very balanced. His upper body had wider shoulders and big arms, his chest was big enough to ali

The VoidIn the void of nothingness, where the flow of time itself didn't exist and not even a ray of light could be seen. This place was neither Heaven nor Hell. It was just an infinite space filled with absolute nothing as if the concept of life and death did not exist here.Suddenly, a crack in space appeared out of nowhere, it kept elongating at an extremely fast speed and in an instant, it stretched around ten kilometers and a gigantic figure sitting on a black stone throne which was no less than a size of a mountain itself emerged from the other side of the void.This figure was akin to the height of a couple of mountains, completely clad in majestic black clothes and had a hood on the head almost resembling the Grim Reaper itself. Its face could not be seen as if it didn't exist. It looked around for a moment and waved its right hand and created a space of its own, widening for a dozen kilometers and stabilizing itself like forming a gigantic barrier.An ancient voice, so deep

Zeus, I never thought you'd actually have a secret candidate!" Arkeus, Ren's Celestial god said in anger at Zeus."You think mine is bad? Just look at Orion!" Zeus retorted."Tsk! You're just sore that the only ability you gave to your candidate is a useless photographic memory. No system nor superpower. Are you so tightfisted?"
