2024-10-29 19:42:56Aji could no longer feel his body when one of the hooligans, who was holding a knife, stuck a knife to his neck. Aji's whole body felt like numbness. Aji thought that he would really die right now.
"Hopefully in the next life, you will be born a cockroach! Because all I know is that cockroaches have a better life than you do now!" said the thug, followed by laughter from other thugs
Interrupted by the laughter of other hooligans. And interrupted by himself who has chosen to surrender to fate that will soon take his life. Aji had thought that what the thugs said was true. The life of cockroaches that always fill the trash can, does look better than him. They can still eat full, wandering to and fro freely. And there is nothing oppressive of their kind.
"Let's hope it's like that," Aji said softly.
In order not to die while looking at the faces he hated most, Aji closed his eyes.
The thug who pointed the knife smiled broadly when he saw Aji surrendered.
"Good! Close your sickening eyes! Take it easy, the pain, you will feel it until the afterlife!"
However, before the thugs slit Aji's throat. There was a voice that came from nowhere. And the voice was only heard by Aji.
"Who told you to surrender?" a voice suddenly sounded as Aji closed his eyes. The voice he believed did not come from the thugs who still surrounded him. Instead, the voice seemed to echo in his head.
"It's time for us to rise up," the voice reappeared. And at the same time, Aji felt his feelings overflow. Sadness, anger, spitefulness and also pleasure. He felt it at the same time. And before Aji found out what happened to him. There was a voice like a person tumbling.
Aji opened his eyes immediately. And at that moment, he saw a dozen thugs who had beaten him earlier. Collapsed with blood pouring on their stomachs. Aji doesn't know what really happened to them. But certainly, Aji felt very grateful. Because the people who bullied him viciously, have been lying lifeless.
Not wanting to think too long, Aji immediately left there. He didn't want to care what really happened just now. He just wanted to go and save himself before the thugs' friends caught up.
***
In the middle of a rundown town, Aji limped over. No one cared about his battered condition. Only cats make a sound when they pass by. As if asking, "When are you going to die?".
The brown bread he had eaten, had also come out of the stomach after the thugs had landed several kicks in his stomach. Until now, Aji felt his stomach hungry again.
When passing by a fairly large hospital building. Aji suddenly heard a voice calling his name. The voice sounded like a female voice. And the voice sounded like it was nearby. But the voice also sounded like from a distance.
Aji turned his head right and left to find who called his name. However, Aji did not manage to find it. All he saw, were people passing by while ignoring his existence.
"Maybe I heard it wrong!" thought Aji. He thought that he had just heard it wrong.
Aji tried to ignore. He walked again. But not until 2 steps he walked. Again someone called his name. And the voice still sounds the same. Female voice with unchanged voice intonation.
Spontaneously, Aji turned his head to the left. Because the voice sounded like it was from that direction. But again, he did not find the figure of the woman who called his name. All he saw was an old man walking slowly with a cane in hand. Aji thought it was impossible for the old man to call his name. What's more, who knew his name even as long as he was a slave, none of them were willing to call his name. The average of them always calls by the name of the animal.
"Who is it?" Aji asked whom. He just voiced so that the figure who had called his name would show his form.
But after a few seconds of waiting, the voice did not appear. Again, Aji thought that he had just heard it wrong. And once again he walked away. But just a few steps away from the hospital, the voice sounded again
"Who is that?!" asked Aji again in a higher tone of voice.
"Come here!" the voice came back with the same intonation. Soft.
"Where are you going?! Come out!" exclaimed Aji couldn't bear it.
But the voice no longer responded. Instead, the voice hummed softly.
Annoyed, Aji tried to hear the voice carefully. And after a few seconds of listening, Aji believed that the voice was coming from the direction of the hospital.
Out of curiosity and also annoyed because the sound did not stop buzzing in his ears. Aji steps into the hospital to find out who has played tricks on him. However, just now he took a step through the hospital gate. He was immediately blocked by a big security man with a fierce face.
"Where are you going?! Go there!" exclaimed the security while pushing Aji's body until Aji fell backwards.
Aji whimpered in pain.
"This place is only for people who have money. Get out of the way!" said the security.
With an annoyed face, Aji got up.
"I heard someone calling my name repeatedly. And I'm very sure that the voice came from inside this hospital," Aji told the security.
The security smiled disdainfully.
"Don't digress! It's just your imagination! What you hear, may be the voice of the angel of death ready to take your useless life! Either go there or I've hit it!" the security said with a glare.
Finding such a very uncomfortable treatment made Aji eager to throw a hard punch to the security's face. But he realized he wouldn't be able to do that. There is, he will be the one who will feel the blow again.
Don't want to get involved in obscure issues. Aji ignored the voice again and left. However, the more his steps away from the sound of the hospital, his inner feeling was tormented. His heart seemed to feel a very heavy dilemma. And it made his steps heavy and his breathing became tight.
"Damn it! How could that voice echo in my ears?!" grumbled Aji who couldn't stand it anymore.
Aji then looks for another way to find the source of the sound that continues to disturb his ears. And before long he looked for a way, his eyes saw a narrow alley on the west side of the hospital building.
"I think I can go through there," Aji thought and then stepped towards the alley.
Aji walked slowly in the alley while his ears kept listening to the humming sound that still echoed in his ears. The more Aji walked forward, the more the echoing voice became clearer. Until 20 meters Aji had walked into the alley, he stopped. He turned to look at the wall fence that divides the hospital area.
"It seems that the voice came from nearby. But how can I climb over the fence of this wall? This fence is so high! It seems impossible–" Aji said, suddenly his eyes darkened to the point that he couldn't see anything. And a second later he felt his body seem to float.
"W-what's this?" said Aji feeling terrified.
In his ignorance. Aji became very panicked. He thought that he was dead. But in the next second, his vision returned to normal. And when his eyes returned to normal. Aji found himself already on one of the branches of a tree growing inside the hospital area.
"W-how did I get here?!"
Aji looked around in a panic. Then looked down. And instantly his eyes became fireflying. Aji immediately hugged the branch of the tree he was walking on for fear of falling.
"Damn.... why is my fate always bad like this!" complained Aji and then tried to get down.
But just now he was about to try to get down from a tree that was up to two stories high. His eyes inadvertently saw a beautiful-looking woman sitting alone on the patient's bed.
"She, so beautiful," Aji said subconsciously.
The woman turned to look at Aji after Aji chirped.
Seeing the woman turned to look at him, Aji immediately twitched.
"So-sorry, I saw that there was a bird upstairs just now. So I went up. Take it easy, don't shout. I'll go down right away. Please don't shout," Aji pleaded in panic. He was really afraid if she screamed.
The woman looked at Aji. Then his lips moved like saying a word. Aji didn't hear what the woman said. Because the distance is quite far, of course it makes the woman's voice not heard by Aji. But strangely, Aji could figure out what the woman was saying. Although Aji didn't hear the woman's voice at all.
"Jump?" Aji repeated what the woman said.
The woman moved her lips back. And the same thing, Aji understands.
'Who is he? Is she the woman who called me?' wondered Aji.
The woman still looked at Aji with a deep look. As if expecting something from Aji
But Aji, who felt that he didn't know the woman, immediately refused. Aji said that the branch he was walking on and the balcony of the room where the woman was, were quite far away. So it is impossible for Aji to jump safely.
But again the woman said silently. Only his lips moved. And the word Aji caught this time was different.
"Oh clan that is always shrouded in deep darkness. Who has always been lonely. Jump up, and fulfill my call!"
Immediately, Aji's body jumped by itself. Aji, who saw his body moving on his own without his control, felt very surprised and confused.
"What the hell?!"

Aji was stunned when he was on the balcony of the patient's room. He was still trying to understand what had just happened to him. But it wasn't until he understood what had just happened that the woman who had called him told him to go inside."Come in, the security guards can arrest you if they see you out there," the woman now said. And the woman's voice, exactly the same as the voice that echoed called Aji's name. Aji immediately crawled into the room. When he walked into the room, Aji felt a coolness that Aji had never felt before. Aji also felt the fragrance in his nasal cavity. Aji looked around. The room with an area of 6x6 square meters looks so clean and tidy. Aji, who had never seen such a neat and clean room, became so amazed."This place, it's great. Is this like a rich patient room? Even better than Mr. Erman's house," Aji said while paying attention to what was in the room. To the extent that he forgot if anyone was in the room. Aji only realized, when the woman asked

The Shadow Clan Regrets and Stories of the Past
Martin looked at the light bracelet on his left wrist. The bracelet looked unremarkable. There is nothing unusual after he uses it. "So, until Ragnarok is over, I can't give this bracelet to anyone else?" asked Martin starting to feel anxious. "No. And in addition to being a symbol of courage. The bracelet is also an affirmation, that registered fighters, are required to fight to the end. Otherwise, the bracelet will blow itself up. And during the 4 times Ragnarok was held, 23 fighters tried to escape from the fight. Those who run away, are not the weak. They are also very powerful. But of the 23 fighters, none survived the bracelet explosion. All dead and charred," Kyv said. Martin was more anxious than ever. In fact, he almost fell in shock at what he had just known.

"Hey! Wake up!" a huge and terrible voice echoed and deafened Aji's ears. Aji, who was sleeping, woke up instantly."Yes, sir, Remon," said Aji, who had not fully awakened. His eyes were still half open. And when his eyes were wide open. Aji was taken aback. In a panic, he turned his head right to left."Where is this?" asked Aji as he looked at his surroundings darkening.Aji got up. He was still looking around him. There was nothing he could see but darkness. But he can still see himself. "Where is this?" said Aji, still panicked. "You're in the boundary realm," the voice that had made Aji wake up, came back and answered Aji's question. When the voice sounded again, Aji immediately turned his head to his right side. Aji felt, the voice came from that direction. However, as long as his eyes squinted to look that way, Aji saw nothing. All seemed to be swallowed by the thick darkness."Who is there?" asked Aji trying to fight his panic and fear. Observed from his voice, Aji felt
The Shadow Clan Identity and Destiny
"Good morning," Cecilia said while giving Aji a warm smile. Aji turned to look at Cecilia with a straight look. Whether it was a dream or something beyond reason that Aji had difficulty understanding, it was still clearly remembered in Aji's mind. About Scotd's order to kill Cecilia. So when he saw Cecilia, Aji immediately felt tense. "How did you sleep? Is it good enough?" asked Cecilia because Aji was just silent and still looking at her without blinking. Aji woke up from the reverie. "Yes. I slept pretty well," Aji replied. Cecilia smiled. Shortly afterwards a doctor and a nurse came. They were about to check Cecilia's condition. "Who is he, Miss Cecilia? Why is he in your room?" asked the doctor with a look of astonishment. Actually, there is no problem if there is a family visiting or waiting for patients overnight. However, because he saw Aji's appearance that was still shabby. Makes doctors and nurses feel astonished. "He's Aji. He's my best friend," Cecilia repl

The Bargain
4 Days passed. Aji's health has fully recovered. The same goes for Aira. She has recovered. However, both of her hands have not been able to function again. Of course, Aira's hands were not damaged or injured. Both hands can be said to be healthy. However, her hands have no shadow. That's why Aira's hands didn't work. And because of this, the medical staff who treated Aira, came to Aji two days earlier. They wanted Aji to restore Aira's hands to function again.But when the medics asked Aji, Skotd was weak and could not be questioned. Because only Skotd knew the technique. And most likely, only Skotd can help. So right when Aji was fully recovered, she immediately went to where Aira was."Skotd, please restore both of Aira's hands. She can't compete if both hands aren't working," Aji pleaded through the Boundary room."I just woke up and you're asking for something impossible. Have you lost your mind?" Skotd replied lazily. Hearing that, Aji was a little surprised. But he still thoug

A Tantalizing Offer
Venus stood in front of Aji's recovery room. She wanted to go in but she was hesitant. For some reason she felt that her intention would disturb Aji. "Will it be another time? He and I aren't that close anyway. Why would I visit him?" Venus muttered.With that in mind, Venus was about to leave. But she had not gone far. The door to the recovery room opened. Suddenly Venus turned her head in that direction. She thought it was the doctor on duty. So she wanted to ask the doctor to find out Aji's condition. But Venus was quite surprised because it was not a doctor she found. Instead, it was a woman with a beautiful and gentle face. "Who is she?" muttered Venus.The woman, who was Cecilia, looked at Venus as well. She recognized Venus quite well. Because she had seen Venus in battle several times. "Do you have anything to do with Aji?" asked Cecilia. She became so defensive when she saw Venus. Because Venus would be Aji's opponent in the final round. "Not really. I actually want to vi

Aji opened her eyes. Her breathing felt heavy. So was her body. He could not move his body at all. Even moving his fingers was difficult. "Where is this? Why do I feel so weak?" complained Aji. "You're being treated," replied someone whose voice he recognized.Aji looked to his left. And he saw Cecilia sitting there alone."Ceci-stop your trickery! I can no longer lie to you!" Aji snapped at Cecilia. He suspected that Cecilia's figure was Queen Nebula who was changing her form to look like Cecilia. So that she can deceive and do inappropriate things.Cecilia put on a confused face. She did not understand why Aji suddenly snapped at her."What's wrong with you?" asked Cecilia with a confused look on her face. "No need to pretend! I'll say it again! I won't be fooled a second time! My feelings! My love! Only for Cecilia! You can't force me to love you! Your love is just a fake anyway! You just want to make me your puppet!" Aji grumbled again.Cecilia was stunned to hear it all. Her f

Aira was quite panicked. But she quickly calmed herself down so she wouldn't get carried away. Because if that happened, she would be easier to defeat. Aira tried to move her left hand. But her left hand was completely immobilized. "What did he just do?" Aira kept her guard up. She didn't want to miss again. "From above!" Skotd's voice rang out again.Aira looked up. She actually saw Skotd plunge from above. But strangely, the gamma rays she emitted could not capture Skotd's movements. It wasn't until Skotd made a sound that Aira knew Skotd's position. In slow motion. Aira felt that Skotd was trying to play a trick on her. "He really underestimated me! I'll make him disappointed!" Aira determined.Within reach, the two clashed swords. With her great strength, Aira swung her sword hard. "Die!" cried Aira.But when the two swords met, they didn't hit each other. Skotd's sword pierced through Aira's sword instead. With her eyes, Aira could see how Skotd's sword penetrated hers. An

Aji Vs Aira (part 3)
Aji was breathing heavily. The only ability she could rely on was her shadow shield. However, even though he had used one of his defense techniques. Still, Aira could still attack. Because the impact of Aira's attack was much greater than before. Even Aji still had to dodge to reduce the direct impact of Aira's attack."She's really perfect. She has incredible strength and speed. Moreover, she has very troublesome eyes. No matter what she shoots, if those eyes are active it's impossible to miss," Aji thought. "You're right. And with this ability, she excels in one-on-one combat," said Skotd. "Do you have any other ideas?" Aji asked. Skotd frowned. "Why do you always ask me for ideas? Look, my contribution is already huge. You've consumed at least 3 percent of my power. Use that brain of yours to think," Skotd said. "I still can't read. How can I read a situation like this? Besides, you have more experience than me. So help me!" Aji exclaimed.Skotd chuckled in annoyance."You are

Aji Vs Aira (part 2)
Aira continued to shoot at Aji relentlessly. It was as if the bullets Aira fired were endless. Aji, who was struggling, could only hold on and make sure his body wasn't pushed further back. "It's not funny if I lose because of an attack like this!" Aji thought.Aji immediately looked for a way out. He didn't want to be Aira's bullshit. But after Aji thought for a while he couldn't find a way out. Many of the shadow techniques he mastered were ineffective against Aira. "The only way to beat her is with speed. You need to be one level ahead of Aira's bullet speed," Skotd said. "Well, that's easy enough to say but impossible to do! There's no way I can increase my speed in such a short time, right?" retorted Aji."That's true. But there is a way," said Skotd. Aji furrowed her brow. She wondered how to increase her speed in a short period of time."How?""Swapping body parts," Skotd replied. Aji was increasingly unable to understand Skotd's too-brief explanation."Tell me clearly.

The second battle was about to begin. Aji and Aira faced each other in the Arena. Aira's face was serious from the moment she stepped onto the arena stage. And the aura she exuded was gripping. It was as if the aura showed how serious Aira was about toppling Aji. "Don't you want to wear head protection first? I'm worried my bullets might kill you," Aira said. "Take it easy. My head is hard enough," Aji replied.Aira smiled at Aji's answer. She felt challenged enough to silence his words. "The second battle of the quarterfinals will begin! Fighters! Get ready!" said Ai.Instantly Aji and Aira both put up a ready position. Both of them realized when Ai gave permission to start the fight. So at that moment the battle of life and death began."FIGHT!!!" In less than half a second after the signal was called. Aji immediately made a circle of shadows. At the same time, Aira fired a single bullet at Aji's head. Aira's shot was fast and precise. Aji realized that Aira immediately attacke

Hard choice! Between Love and Friends!
Seeing the queen of Nebula who still hadn't come out of the recovery room occupied by Venus. Aji decided to visit Rozch. Although he and Rozch have never talked to each other because both of them are quiet and passive. But as fellow warriors trying to protect their respective planets. Aji felt an obligation to visit Rozch. "I'll see Rozch first," Aji said to Aira.Aira, who was standing while leaning lazily on a support pole, straightened up. "I'm coming," Aira said. Aji was a little surprised. He did not know why Aira was so different from usual. Even though Aira's figure that Aji knew, had the same character as Rozch or herself. A quiet figure and always wants to move alone. But seeing Aira's attitude now, made Aji suspicious. Aji suspected Aira would do something. So Aji deliberately installed the Circle of Shadows to protect herself if Aira suddenly attacked. And what Aji did, Aira realized. So Aira spoke up about what Aji was doing."I'm not the type of person who likes to ch

After the Battle of Venus and Rozch
The battle between Rozch and Venus was a big hit. Many people were talking about the great battle. Even all the planets in the third star's orbit were talking about the fierce battle. And on earth, the atmosphere was so tense when the battle between Venus and Rozch began. Most of them became scared as soon as they saw the strength of Rozch and Venus. Although in the previous rounds there had been several tense battles. But the battle between Rozch and Venus was a new experience. Seeing that battle made them feel the war that happened 50 years ago. "If one of those creatures attacks Earth, are we ready to fight it?" said Antonio. He really didn't expect Venus' power to be so terrifying. Even when he saw the explosion at the end of Venus and Rozch's fight, Antonio was so scared that he couldn't breathe. He admitted that he still felt the fear of the nuclear war 50 years ago. Although he himself did not experience the war firsthand. But just by looking at the video evidence. Antonio ca
