VERNER: The Devil Hunter The haunted hotel Part 8
Verner and Cedar watched Callus do all sorts of acrobatics with his chained rods then take his battle stance, Cedar held his sickles and spread his arms apart while Verner did the thunder spear pose "WAIT!!" Cedar commanded, Verner stood up straight and looked at him "What's the problem?" Verner asked,"This devil is much stronger than he looks, he has some sort of messed up ability that allows him to switch places with his opponents, so he could use it to his advantage and make us kill each other by switching places when we're just about to cut him down, the only reason you got him the last time is because he wasn't expecting it, neither was I" Verner looked back at Callus, he really didn't look strong, but he was black night which meant that he was definitely someone to be wary of no matter his appearance "You just called my dark magic art messed up, seems like all the beatings I gave you kinda knocked off your memories, because you'll know that I can be very dangerous when someo

"Verner!!!...Cedar!!!...where are you guys?!!!...Verner!!!" "That's enough Erik!!" Tywin shut him down, Erik sighed in frustration "Is it just me or have we gone through this corridor for like the third time in a row..." Tywin and Erik turned to Astrid who was observing the angel and devil painting she saw while they were searching for their room earlier "I don't see how that's possible" Tywin stated, Astrid still had her eyes fixed on the painting, "no, I can't be mistaken, I've seen this painting three times now in the last three corridors we were in, besides after going through so many floors we should have been at the ground floor by now, but we're still in the 200 series, doesn't that bother you guys?" Tywin and Erik glanced at each other,"I mean now that you mention it I think I get your point, it's been more than seven floors if I'm not mistaken and there are sixty rooms on each floor" Tywin pointed out "Which means that it should take us about five or six stories to get t

"Cedar!!" Verner ran to Cedar's corridor panting heavily, Cedar just stared at the flesh blobs that were slowly absorbing the guests in the rooms whose shattered walls were already getting patched up by Vagas flesh, once again he had been put in a dilemma, black night magic arts were always a pain in the ass to deal with. "What do we do now Cedar?, how are we going to save all these people?" Verner asked anxiously, Cedar turned to him "Remember what I told you earlier?""If I can die to save humanity?, I said yes" "No, not that"Verner's eyes narrowed as he tried to recall what Cedar was talking about "I told you that we're here to kill devils, not to save people, so even if it meant sacrificing all the guests in this hotel, we have to do whatever we can to find and kill that devil" Cedar peered into his eyes, Verner still looked reluctant "But we're so close, we can still...""Verner, crash the walls, destroy any flesh that tries to heal them, forget about the humans, the devil
VERNER: The Devil Hunter A letter from Daegan
The sun had begun to rise slowly on the horizon and all the survivors of the haunted hotel incident had been evacuated from the scene by the local police as well as members guardian society's disaster management squad as they had operational bases in every major city in Celestra. Verner and Astrid had been pulled out of the rubble from the collapsed hotel and were receiving treatment. Verner took a lot more physical damage as he wrapped himself around Astrid just before the building fell so prevent her from getting wounded but for some reason he didn't seem to feel the pain anymore. "How you feeling now?" Cedar asked Verner whose head was wrapped in blood stained bandage "I'm feeling good, which is very surprising" he replied. Verner was sitting on some rocks from the shattered building and he covered himself with a blanket, Astrid was already with Tywin and Erik. Cedar patted Verner on his shoulder, "I have to talk to the police and give them an official statement before we're
VERNER: The Devil Hunter The end of the black nights
Blue lily pleasure house, Water fall City, 11 o clock at night; The pleasure house was booming with colours and music as they were having a special party which was held every full moon, performers played different kinds of songs with their musical instruments and the guests all danced and frolicked. Fully naked girls swung on poles and humped the men in the house to please them as they threw money notes and coins into the air and spanked each of them like the dirty whores they were. Everyone in the house were either dancing, drinking, gambling or banging, this place was by far the biggest sin establishment in Water fall City and one of the hottest in all of Celestra as well. Within one of the rooms of the pleasure house, Zaltar was getting serviced by three fully nude women while he sat on his bed, he had bright blue hair which was very scattered, his eyes were also blue with pupils slit like that of a snake. He wore a black leather jacket over a blue shirt while his lower body was
VERNER: The Devil Hunter The one true God
"You, look at me, black night six" Malachar commanded, Zaltar raised his head up steadily from his bowing position, his face dripping with sweat, he looked up to Malachar who was sitting on his high throne with the blood red flames burning behind it, it was his turn, this was the end for him. "I believe you were also part of the defectors, or am I mistaken?" Malachar asked, Zaltar was silent, then he summoned the courage to speak; "No...no my lord, you're not wrong, you can never be wrong" he answered "Can you give me any reason why I should let you live?, any point to justify your existence at all?" Zaltar was frozen, he searched his memory and knowledge to try and cook up an answer, then something came to his mind; "My Lord, I have disposed of two sentinel devil hunters in my life time, I believe I am still strong enough to fight the guardians and..." "You disposed of two sentinels you say?, the last time you fought any devil hunter was 300 years ago, and ever since th
VERNER: The Devil Hunter Damorak and Phobius
Bane stared at Malachar who looked very gleeful, which was quite awkward as he rarely ever looked happy or pleased by anything "This dream of yours seems a little...far fetched my lord, how exactly do you plan to achieve this" Bane asked inquisitively, Malachar made a very devious smile and put his fingers together; "I'm going to unseal Damorak...""WHAT!!!" Bane shot back, the slammed his hands on the desk and stoop up sharply "My...my lord...you can't...Damorak... he's..." "He's what?, too powerful?, please!!" Malachar signalled at him to sit down, he dropped to his chair slowly, still looking very disturbed "Damorak and Phobius were some of the first members of the black nights when I first formed the cult and were the most powerful till today, but they grew too strong and slipped out of my control when they achieved the status of primordial, once a devil believes that it is strong enough to defeat me, whether it's true or false, I will lose my power of absolute control over it
VERNER: The Devil Hunter Blessing or curse?
Great plains of Celestra, 8 o clock in the morning; The train to the capital city whistled and chaffed on the railway built along the massive plains of low grass, wide horses and rabbits scattered around at the sight and sound of the massive train. Verner and his crew had crossed a sea on a long four day trip to get to the main land of the kingdom of Celestra and were on there way to the royal square in the capital city, just as Daegan had instructed. Astrid and Erik rested their heads on Tywin's sides as the trio read a book that he held together, Verner and Cedar were sitting just ahead of them, the train was full of other passengers who were going to the capital as well. Verner sat by the window and gazed at the green plains and wildlife while Cedar was sheathing and unsheathing Verner's thunder spear sword repeatedly, he was just toying with the weapon "You said Rodric gave this to you right?", Verner turned to him and saw Cedar shaking the chain at the end of the handle, "y

The majors vs the primordial
A few minutes ago: The three majors stood over the rooftops of the metropolitan buildings, surrounding the business complex that had Bane's wine bar at the ground floor, they were getting ready for a full scale invasion as they had gathered substantial intel on the identity and potential of the devil that ran this undercity business empire, black night number one, Bane. "How long are we going to wait out here Marvin?, it's almost ten o clock" Renae the new major of the thunder clan seemed very impatient, at the age of 21 she had never fought a black night before and didn't understand how much more powerful they'd be than the common red grades, Marvin the fire major and Hugo the major of the water clan were a lot more experienced and knew better than to jump in this early in the night "We'd be better of waiting here as long as we can, if what we heard is true then this devil we're about to face must be extremely powerful" Marvin stated. "The closer we are to sunrise the greater our

The daywalker
Bane's wine bar, the capital city, 9:30 pm A beautiful horse driven carriage pulled over at the front of Bane's establishment, a couple of men who stood around where drawn by the very fancy vehicle and the two brown horses that pulled it. Two hefty men who were most likely body guards stepped out of the carriage from the doors on both sides and one of them offered a hand to help their mistress step out. Belzara walked out of the carriage and looked around, she wore a very long suit jacket and trousers over a white top and black tie which was elevated by her huge breasts, as well as a black hat over her head to conceal her little red horns, her blood red eyes glowed in the dark of the night and her lips were the same colour. She walked into the bar hurriedly and was swiftly followed by her bodyguards, the men who hung around the bar had all their eyes on this fascinating lady, a few of the regular customers could have sworn that they had seen her here before. Belzara went into Bane's

A dangerous secret
Tywin arrived at the disaster management base on the island at sunset, the same place where Cedar was taken to for treatment, he brought Erik's dying body and cried out for help as many of the staff rushed and relieved his injured comrade from his hands. Tywin himself was very worn out, he had a punctured lung and many damaged organs and bones after fighting both Zaltar and Hector, the attendants tried to walk him in but he kept on wailing and just knelt on the ground. "Tywin..." He raised his head up and saw Daegan standing in front of him, Daegan had arrived on the island's sea port an hour ago after Cedar sent a pigeon to him during the night, just after Valdrik's invasion began, he took a horse ride to the management base as he couldn't find the interns he was supposed to carry home. "Where are the others?,...Verner, Skylar, where are they?!!" Tywin just stared at Daegan, he saw the grief Tywin's eyes, the poor boy must have seen very terrible things today, and that could only

True freedom
Hector was aghast as he watched Verner's halved arms fully regenerate, a million thoughts ran through his mind as the horror scene played out in broad daylight, a human with the power of devils?!!, a devil that managed to survive the sun?!!, whatever this brat was he definitely wasn't a normal human being. Hector shook himself out of his appalled state and drew his sword then charged at Verner; "I'll kill you again!!, damn devil!!!"He got to Verner and slashed at him, he gasped in shock as Verner had vanished from his sight and stood behind him "That's my sword isn't it?" Verner pulled out the thunder flash spear from Hector's strap and took it out of it's sheath, Hector growled and spun quickly to strike him again and Verner halted the attack with his own sword, a shockwave tore through the air as their blades jammed each other "He's a lot faster and stronger now, this is bad!!, this is very bad!!" Hector thought, Verner released his sword from the blade lock and attacked Hector

A zombie
"Where am I?...what happened to me?...where is everyone?,...Tywin, Erik...Skylar..." The island's forest had become very quiet and only the sounds of chirping birds could be heard, Verner's body laid in a pool of his own blood as his two arms were cut in half and his head was drilled open by Hector's dagger, all of which spilled blood like a bursted tank. The sun was at it's brightest and high up in the sky which meant it was midday, Verner's eyes slowly blinked as he gradually regained consciousness "Who am I kidding?,...why am I even doing all of this?,...I'm just a pathetic and powerless brat,...I don't deserve to be a devil hunter,...I don't have any reason to live anymore,...I should just die already,...yeah...maybe then I'll finally meet my mother,...that was all I ever wanted,...wasn't it?..." Verner began to see memories of his childhood, back when he was just a little boy, when he would come back home after spending a whole day playing with the village children, when his

Mission accomplished
Tywin, Erik and Skylar hid themselves in a building on the island, the place seemed to be an abandoned guest house that probably had all it's inhabitants evacuated during the devil attack early this morning. Skylar sat on a chair with her face in her palms, Erik paced around the room and Tywin peeked outside a narrowly opened window, looking out for any signs of Verner or Hector. "Anything yet?" Erik asked and broke the silence, Tywin shut the window and sighed in frustration, "no" he replied coldly. Erik had his hands on his waist and stared at the ground, deep in thought, Tywin bumped his forehead gently on the window repeatedly, the whole room was very tense and moody, they didn't know what to think, what to feel, they could only imagine what Verner would be going through out there, they felt it was best to hide incase Hector got rid of Verner too quickly and chased after them. "Why is all this happening to me?!!,...what did I ever do to deserve this?!!, all I wanted was a good

Hector strikes
"Tywin, Erik, take Skylar and run as fast as you can, I'll hold him off" Verner commanded, watching Hector very sternly, Tywin didn't seem to agree with his request; "No way Verner, this guy can kill you!!, if we're going to stop him we'd have to fight together" "We cant!!, you two are badly wounded, he'd take you both out immediately and I can't let that happen, get away from here as fast as you can, find somewhere to hide, we can't let anything happen to Skylar." Hector grinned as he watched Verner's heroic act, the whole scene was just so comedic to him, this kid really thought he stood a chance against him in a fight, or he was probably just sacrificing himself, both ways the result would just be his death and it would all be for nothing. Tywin left with Erik and Skylar, she took one last glance at Verner before turning to leave, this was most likely the last time she'd ever see him and the thought of that made her so distraught. Verner and Hector were now all alone, Verner

She's not worth it
Guardian society disaster management and paramedics arrived at the resort as the sun rose fully, they had a base at one end of the island as they do in every major residential area in Celestra to help survivors and bring medical support after battles with devils like these, the resort was in total shambles and all that was left was ash and wreckage of the destroyed buildings and facilities. Verner, Skylar and the other interns gathered around Cedar as he got his wounds treated and bandaged then placed in a stretcher. Tywin, Astrid and Erik also got their injuries tied up as well, Zaltar's cold blood attacks took a huge toll on them but it not nearly as bad as Cedar who might never be able to fight again. Cedar took one last glance at each of his students "Verner, Tywin, Erik... you..." he said as he couldn't remember Astrid's name, "The four of you should take Skylar and head to the port, this island is no longer safe for any of you, or anyone at all, I sent my pigeon to HQ last

The decisive battle
Valdrik stood still and really considered the stakes here, he knew very well that his plan to capture Skylar today was very implausible as time was not on his side, the sun would be up in any minute from now and he'd be doomed, Zaltar and the monsters that he sent after the princess had not given any signal till now, he already began to assume that they were dead, the odds were all stacked against him but he knew that if this operation was botched he would never get a chance like this again. He slammed his fist into his palm and summoned a ring of red flames around himself, Cedar smiled gleefully and spun his sickles; "So this is how you want it to be huh?!!""Dark magic arts; Crimson death wheel!!!" Valdrik launched himself with his red flames towards Cedar, he had to finish this battle as soon as possible or it would be over for him, this fight was all or nothing, Cedar ran towards him as well and swung his sickles at him, Valdrik was wading them all off with his flame covered fi
