Chirp. Chirp. Chirp. Crickets and birds made their unique sound under the rays of the starry night skies. Currently, Aiden sat atop the roof of a dilapidated building, seemingly waiting for something.. Or perhaps someone? Vroom!! Hearing the sound of engine roaring, Aiden looked up to see a Yamaha bike ridden by a figure in leather coat, pull over. "You are here?" Aiden jumped down from where he was sitting. The figure was clad in red leather jacket, with a fox mask, just leaving only her mouth exposed. The figure had flowing red hair and long pointy fox like ears shooting out from her long hair. As for her eyes, they were blood red. "So this is your disguise?" Aiden asked lightly. "Yup" Raya who was under the disguise of her Mercenary alias, Vixon replied. "Tch. But your voice sounds the same" Aiden shrugged. "Isn't the disguise just useless?" "Well, that's a problem.. though it's impossible that I'd stumble upon a high ranking Sentry while I'm not on duty" Raya winked.
"All done" after about a couple minutes, Aiden finally exited the fence made out from mist. Currently, he was clad in a red combat shirt, underneath a black long sleeved body hugging trench coat that had red stripes at its edges. A Bronze colored girdle was wrapped around his waist, which had the embelm of a Vampire fang. His pants were black im color as well and his sneakers were crimson red. A mask could be seen covering the lower tip of his nose, down to his throat, revealing only his eyes which were were electrifying blue. "Uhm. We need to do something about your hair" Miraia mumbled as she observed Aiden's make over. "Here!" she reached into the pocket of her coat, tossing a small sachet with a purple colored pill at him. "Huh? what's this?" Aiden stared curiously at the pill inside the sachet. "It is a pill that fastens the decay of the melanocyte cells in your body, causing your hair to turn silver in color. However, it is just for a short while, at most twelve hours
Fenris City was one of the top Cities in the Capital State of Nightshade. As such, it boasted of being the area where Two Sentry Guilds headquarters were located. This wasn't a small feat since to open up a Sentry Guild, it required the presence of a Junior B-Class Sentry at minimum. Currently at the Headquarters of the Blade Mantis Guild, a group of Interns could be spotted patrolling the premises under the starry skies. "Sigh.. I wonder when I'll get the qualifications to start patrolling the City. It feels like I'm currently restricted in a small cage" an intern who was in the midst of a patrol, complained to his colleague as he glanced at his wrist-watch. "The second squad will be done with their shift in the next ten minutes " "Heh. Carlos, what are you complaining for?" his colleague shook his head upon hearing his complaints. "This job pays us five hundred bucks per hour. You should be lucky we even managed to snag this job, after all we are just college drop-outs. It's
"Shit. Shit. Our cover is blown" Akira clicked her tongue with displeasure as the finger print scanner continued blinking red."What do we do now?" Sally asked her."We need to break through before they completely have us surrounded""But.. this gate isn't ordinary" Sally whispered as she brushed her pale white fingers against the surface of the gate."It is reinforced with a sturdy Rune Matrix " she added."Can you break through it?" Akira asked."I can, but it would take me thirty minutes to" Sally shook her head."Whichever Runelock did this was an expert ""Thirty minutes? we don't have much time " Akira shook her head"Let's strike this gate together Alaric. The rest of you should stand back" she commanded as Alaric took his position besides her."Here it goes!!" Nick licked his lips in anticipation as the duo both unsheathed their Weapons. "Star..""Crescent Moon.." "Fish!!""Meteorite!!" Akira unsheathed two of her daggers, smashing them together as she sent an *X* shape
Clang!Xaine suddenly thrust towards his left side, blocking a blade with his claws. The clash caused some sparks to fly about in the air.Seeing that his sneak attack had failed, the Sentry kicked the ground, distancing himself away from the Vampire. "That must be the special movement technique exclusive to only Warlocks.. Flash" Xaine smirked as he patted his coat. "Unfortunately when it comes to speed, we Vampires excels at that!" He suddenly disappeared from sight like a ghost, before suddenly appearing behind the Sentry. His claws were aimed at the spine of the latter. "Hell Cyclone!!" the Sentry suddenly held out his sword as he spun his body at a rapid pace, making him appear like a human tornado. Slit. Slit. Slit. Due to the close proximity, gashes appeared on Xaines cheeks and chest, drawing out blood. "That hurts" Xaine hurriedly distanced himself, causing the Sentry to stop spinning. "Don't you dare underestimate me" the Sentry warned in an icy tone. "Tch" Xaine c
"Is it really okay leaving the rest of the gang behind to face those Sentries?" Aiden asked Raya with a worried expression.They were currently inside a lift, taking them towards the upper floor.The Head Quarters of Blade Mantis Guild had 3 floors in total and they were currently headed towards the second floor."Don't sweat it, those guys can handle them just fine. What we should focus on is how to get the Ruins passage key" Raya replied."I don't get it" Aiden blurted while shaking his head."Get what?""How are you guys this calm when you are facing Sentries! are you guys retarded or what huh? they are the world's mightiest protectors!"Raya grabbed his shoulder."Look, let me tell you something fanboy..""The Sentries are not who you think of them to be. Hell, this world isn't what you think of it to be. The sooner you quit worshipping those hypocrites, the better for you "Aiden shrugged off her grip."Quit speaking in parables and tell me what's up"Just as Raya made to reply,
"Tch. This is getting harder to pull off than I had anticipated" Rick groaned with displeasure as he landed besides Xaine, who halfway in a kneeling position. Currently, their physical outlook didn't look quite good and the relaxed expression they once has was no longer there. From this, it was obvious that the battle was telling on them. "You don't look too good. Where did all your heaven favored speed disappear to?" the Senior A-Class Sentry they were battling with taunted them as took a small step forward. Currently, there were many torn areas on the Sentry's outfit, as well as a couple of claw marks and slashes. "You are pretty good for a Senior A-Class " Xaine commented solemnly. He had fought a couple of Senior A-Class Sentries in the past, however none of them had given him such a hard time like this one was doing. Even after teaming up with Rick, they still were unable to bring him down. "Complementing me at this junction won't do you any good. You are just merely delayin
A wry smile appeared on Aiden's lips when he observes that the other party seemed to be underestimating him. His speed suddenly accelerated. Whoosh! The heart of the Sentry almost leapt out from his chest, unfortunately before he coule react, a hand wrapped in red gauntlet emerged through his heart from behind. Retracting his hands with blood dripping from his claws, Aiden didn't feel any trace of disgust or repulsion after having committed such s gory and merciless murder. Infact, it felt like it was something natural. Similar to the way people killed chickens for their flesh. "You bastard!!" an A-Class Sentry who shared a close relationship with the Sentry that had just died, charged at Aiden, while swinging his sword angrily with the intent to kill and avenge his dead comrade. Strangely, Aiden remained routed on the same spot as if waiting for his death. "He's up to something!" an ominous feeling welled up within the heart of Spain. Unfortunately, the attacking Sentry was to
"This.." the newly arrived Kingsguard was about to put on airs when he noticed the familiar head on Aiden's palm, as well as the headless corpse besides him.He and his colleague had been both tasked to confront Prince Eragon during his march and apprehend him. A few moments before, they were both racing each other and now, his colleague was nothing but an headless corpse?! Shing!While the Kingsguard was still reeling from the shock, an ear piercing sword cry rang out as a sharp saber light stabbed towards him.Oge made her move.Bang!The runic symbols swirling besides the Kingsguard swiftly merged together to form a shield, blocking the sudden attack. The force of the collision caused cracks to appear on its surface.Whoosh!Oge disappeared from where she was standing, appearing mid air the next second as her saber stabbed towards the eyes of the Kingsguard. She was both merciless and direct.. not giving the opponent the opportunity to counterattack.Clang!The runic shield trans
It was unknown who let the cat out of the bag, but two explosive news rocked the whole Hidden Realm.. The first was that, General Jazz was still in a secluded retreat and the second was actually more explosive than it's predecessor.. The Crown Prince was nearly assassinated within the castle walls!!! No matter how General Jazz loyalist tried suppressing this news, they couldn't stop the several tongues wagging within the shadows. For a long time, the mere mention of General Jazz was like a butcher blade hanging over many of their throats. He was a tyrannical figure who wasn't merciful when it came to punishing those not on his side. Unfortunately no matter how dissatisfied they were, nobody dared revolt. However with the release of these two explosive news, the whole Hidden Realm experienced a transformation. "You shouldn't be parading the streets. By the decree of General Jazz you are to stay within the confines of your homes" a Winged Panda Man race member who was clad in worn
"Hmpfh!" slamming both of his palms together, a burst of blue colored flames erupted from the forehead of the Delegate that took the form of a Phoenix with a Qillin horn that shot towards the descending Lord Commander.Bang!The silver sword of the Lord Commander sliced the flame phoenix into two, while a curved sword light streaked towards the Delegate who held up both palms in front of him, creating a flame prison that protected him from the sword light.The collision merely made the flame prison quake. However it was a far cry from collapsing."A flame seed huh" the Lord Commander swiftly arrived in front of the Crown Prince as he gave the Delegate a sharp look.Although he tried hiding it, his brows creased in worry."Hmpfh. You lot think that we Delegates are soft persimmons. You think we are just skins and bones with only our brains having value" the Delegate spat hatefully as he controlled the flame prison with his hands, causing it to change shape into that of a gigantic sword
Bang!!A loud explosive noise resounded as the doors to a chamber flew past its hinges, blowing up into smithereens before it's many pieces crashed against the floor of the expensively looking tiled chamber."What messages do you have about my father? why didn't he just speak to me directly once he came out from seclusion?" the Crown Prince retreated his outstretched leg as she bouyantly walked into the chambers..Apart from the shiny decor of the chambers that could make Marie go crazy with greed, there was only a single soul present..Well, before the Crown Prince made his 'loud appearance ' that is. Unlike other Winged Panda Men, this was was far more chubbier and shorter. Not to mention, he was clad in yellow eastern styled scholarly robes and was lacking a tail. During the time when the Winged Panda Man race was still glorious and the world of Dystopia was still thriving, there was two distinct types of Winged Panda Men. The Warriors and the Delegates/Scholars.Just like th
When Aiden returned to the Strategy Hall with Nimara, whether it was Prince Eragon or his supporters, they were all pleasantly surprised. When Nimara personally pledged to support Prince Eragon, the banished Prince breathed a sigh in relief. It could be seen that he placed a majority of his confidence in the success of the Ancestral Ceremony. After much discussion, a decision was made. Aiden, Rin and Oge alongside one of the retired Kingsguards were going to accompany Prince Eragon to the Ancestral Tombs This was a counter measure Incase any of General Jazz loyalist tried to interfere. Also according to Nimara, the Ancestral Ceremony wasn't simple.. Prince Eragon could die if he didn't tread carefully. As for the rest, they were going to silently gather their forces. Once Prince Eragon returned from the Tombs, the rebellion was going to begin in full swing. "Are you sure you don't want me tagging along? I won't target her if that's what you are afraid of" Marie whispered to Aid
"How did it go?" Aiden had just stepped outside when he saw Marie giving him a curious look. "Were you waiting for me all this while?" he raised a brow while smirking in amusement. Before Marie could reply, she noticed somebody else coming out. It was the Maester! "She's agreed to help us" Aiden informed Marie who gave him a suspicious look. "Did you.." As if reading her mind, Aiden shook his head. "I didn't bite her. What do you think I am? a dog?" Rubbing his temples, he continued. "Let's just say, we both have a mutual reason for a partnership" Giving the Maester a look, he began making his way towards the strategy hall, intentionally hastening his walking pace to avoid getting any more questions from Marie. "What did she mean by the bite?" the Maester whispered to Aiden as they walked along the winding hallway. "Like I explained to you earlier, I am a Vampire and there are some of us capable of turning other people into one of us through biting them. I happened to be
"What the Hell?!" although Aiden had seen a lot of gore after obtaining the system, he couldn't hold back the surprised yelp. Instinctively blocking his face with both hands, the flying head was about to slam into him when something bizzare happened. The blood dripping from the Maester's decapitated neck suddenly seemed to have adopted an elastic property, extending towards the flying head before drawing it back. Right before Aiden and Marie's stunned faces, the head of the Maester got easily retached, leaving not the slightest mark or scar behind. It was like nothing had happened. "What are you?" "What the hell?!" The two Vampires screamed at the same time, causing them to give each other a look. "You first" Aiden shook his head weakly. "Did you just witness what happened just now?" "Oh yeah.. oh wait! yep you just sliced off her head. What the hell were you thinking just now?" Aiden rubbed his temples with exasperation. "You were told to interrogate the prisoner, not k
Aiden had barely recovered from the shocking statement when a snort suddenly rang out. "He's the one who killed three Kingsguards? looks like the Kingsguards have slacked off during General Jazz absence" Although the members of the Blood Dragon Legion who were present didn't understand what these words meant considering it was spoken in the native tongue of the Winged Panda Men, Aiden had the system which could automatically translate the language of the Winged Panda Man race. As for the speaker, it was one of three Elders present. Pretending like he was completely oblivious to the other party's remarks, Aiden gave Prince Eragon a look. "How is it going outside? Now that their Queen has been captured surely there are Soldiers patrolling every inch and corner right" "Actually.." Prince Eragon shrugged helplessly. "It is the opposite. It is currently morning and the news of the Maester's kidnap has not yet been in circulation.. " "That's good right?" Aiden rose his left brow.
When Aiden woke up, the first thing he felt was.. The itch.. followed by the burn.. And then the pain! —[Your Bloodlust Rises!]—[57/100] Sure enough, this system notification was the first thing he saw. Groaning dryly, Aiden noticed he was laying on a bed in an unfamiliar room. He tried rising up, only to discover that apart from the looming hunger pang, every fibre in his body hurt like hell! It was like a huge truck had just run right through a cricket.. and he was that cricket. "What the hell happened!" "Argh!" a searing headache hit Aiden when he tried going down the memory lane. "Am.. Am I sick?" Aiden was wrought with confusion when he noticed his vision slowly grow fuzzy. —[Your Bloodlust Rises!]—[87/100] Aiden was taken aback by the sudden sharp increase. He swiftly consumed a hundred blood drachmas, causing his stock to reduce all the way to three hundred. However even after he did this, it took about twenty minutes for his fuzzy vision to go back to normal, sam
