VERNER: The Devil Hunter Who's the new guy?
Daegan wore his long blue and green coat over his all black uniform, his long black hair bundled with white threads to make a single thick braid which ran almost all the way down his back. His face heavily scarred from so many fights with black grade devils throughout his life, including his infamous defeat to Malachar which cost him his left hand, his huge sword with the sea weed quillon hung on his belt. He looked sick, but that was probably because he was over sixty years old already, a feat very few hunters ever achieve. Four attendants stood behind him, two on each side, each wearing the same black uniforms. All four of the other sentinels fell to one knee and bowed their heads to the leader of this generation of guardians and hunters. Verner immediately threw his bags away and fell to the knees to bow after he saw the sentinels ahead of him, and Daegan was quick to notice the presence of an odd personnel, but a familiar one. "Verner?..." he asked, looking very surprised, the o
VERNER: The Devil Hunter The Sixth Sentinel
"Let's train together, and once we're done, you'll never have to ask why a regular human being like me is in HQ" Verner and Tywin were locked in some sort of staring contest, Verner with a stern look on his face, Tywin very agitated, gnashing his teeth, greatly pissed by this newcomer who challenged him before even knowing his name "Common guys that's enough!!..." Astrid got in the middle of the boys and pushed both of them away from each other. "Verner you just got here and you want to start a fight, you're going to leave a bad impression on the higher ups..." Astrid had both her hands on their chests to keep them far from each other "Yeah, yeah...she's right..." Erik cut in, Tywin hissed and Verner scoffed, both boys stepped back, still looking at each other "You're a lucky one boy, better don't mess with me next time or I'll beat you up so bad they're gonna send you back to your mama..." Tywin stopped as he noticed Verner instantly become furious, veins popping out of his h
VERNER: The Devil Hunter Set your heart on fire
Verner slid the doors of his room open, the place was very neat and spacious, a bed neatly made with white bed sheets and the windows were covered with blue curtains that were designed with yellow flower patterns, making the room a little dark. A very smooth wardrobe stood at one end of the room, his bags were already stuffed in it. The bathroom door was on another end. Verner couldn't believe they'd go this far just for an intern, he wondered what the rooms of the higher ups looked like. "Wow..." he said in amazement, as he looked around the place, his room in Rodric's house was just as polished as this but less spacious, still it startled him that an intern will have such a nice room "Cool right?..." Astrid asked, bumping his shoulder with her fist to get his attention, Verner just kept on observing the place "Is this what all your rooms look like?""Yup..." Erik dived into Verner's bed face first, ruffling the neatly arranged cotton bed sheets "but I sleep in Astrid's room,
VERNER: The Devil Hunter Master Cedar
Regalis family house, Fire clan, 5 years ago; Young Tywin laid on the ground in an open field breathing heavily, he wore a black sleeveless martial arts robe and held a wooden sword in his hand, his arms were reddened in different spots as he was getting beat up really badly. "Get up!!!" A bald man behind him shouted, he wore the same robe as Tywin but his was a lot bigger since he was an adult. Tywin slowly got up from the ground, using his spare hand to hold his rib, he was in huge pain, tears building up in his eyes as he tried very hard not to cry, his golden hair was messed up and had a lot of grass on it. He stood on his feet again and raised his wooden sword at the bald trainer, the man had a very hostile look on his face and carried a long wooden staff. Tywin gasped and grunted, he stared at the man furiously. "GRAAAH!!!!" he screamed as he ran towards the trainer with his wooden sword, swinging it as he tried to get a hit, but the trainer kept blocking each of them w
VERNER: The Devil Hunter The Great push up war
"Alright kids...let's begin" Verner, Erik and Tywin stood on the field in the training camp, the three of them stood in a line with spaces between them. Cedar and Astrid stood in front of them, Astrid was holding a bunch of stuff wrapped with white cloth. The sun had come up fully and the sounds of chirping birds filled the air. All three boys were shirtless this time. Tywin and Verner were very ripped with well toned muscles and abs, Erik on the other hand was quite lean, but still athletic. Cedar walked to-and-fro from one boy to the other and back like some sort of military general, then he stopped in front of Tywin and peered into his eyes, Tywin did the same, looking downwards as he was slightly taller than Cedar. "What's you name boy?" Cedar asked, making a detective face and rubbing his chin "Tywin...Sir""And let me guess you're from the fire clan" "Yes sir...""And why are you here?""What??..." Tywin was confused by Cedar's question "I said, why are you here?,
VERNER: The Devil Hunter What are friends for?
The sound of a ticking clock was the only thing that could be heard in the partially dark room where Tywin was 'laid to rest'. He opened his eyes slowly and gazed at the roof made of polished wood. The windows were covered with a bunch of yellow translucent curtains and the little light that pierced through them shined on Tywin and his bed. "What...happened?" he thought as he slowly turned his head to look around the room, "this isn't my room". He looked at the clock that was ticking on the wall, it was already two o clock in the afternoon, he sighed and raised his back from the bed and assumed a sitting position, the bed sheets still covering his legs, he rubbed his eyes so he can wipe of the sleepy feeling, then began to hear some voices from outside the room, it gradually got louder as the people talking got closer to the door, then the knob rolled and door opened slightly. Verner peeked through the slim space and saw Tywin on the bed, then withdrew his head quickly; "Hey gu
VERNER: The Devil Hunter The haunted hotel
Red diamond hotel, Palm City, 4 nights ago;The corridor floors of the massive hotel was lined with very fine red carpets woven with golden trims and designs, doors to different rooms were arranged on each side, the walls were decorated with exquisite paintings and vases, some containing flowers, others just for aesthetic purposes, a few small but dazzling sculptures were present too, yellow lights that lined the walls shined in the corridors, making the place look even more fancy and royal. A woman dressed in a black gown with white puffy trims dusted the vases and paintings, she tied her brown hair into a bun with a white cloth. "Elena" A man called her from down the corridor, she turned to reply him. "How may I help sir?" she bowed slightly to show her respect. The man walked slowly towards her, the sounds of his footsteps echoed through the lonely corridor, he had black hair and wore a suit, his skin very pale and his eyes glowing orange. "The manager sends for you, he's in t
VERNER: The Devil Hunter The haunted hotel Part 2
Tywin, Astrid and Erik got to the reception, looking all smooth and noble, the receptionist looked at them awkwardly when she checked for their reservation and saw it was a ticket for three, and they were two boys and a girl which was very weird because these kind of bookings were usually for one man and two or more ladies. She stared at Astrid with disdain like she was some sort of dirty slut thinking she was spending the night with two different men. The three of them walked casually as they tried to locate their room, only carrying some bags filled with irrelevant stuff so it wouldn't look like they came empty handed. Tywin counted the numbers on each door as he led them through the corridors, Astrid and Erik on the other hand were too busy admiring the marvelous paintings and sculptures that they found at intervals. "This place sure is fancy..." Astrid pointed out, she paused for a moment and gazed at a painting of a half naked female angel with wings and a halo over head

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
