High GrandMaster Aulus!
High GrandMaster Aulus was old—ancient, even—but that didn’t mean weak. His presence was heavy, like a storm lingering before the first crash of thunder. When he walked, he didn’t just move; he commanded the space around him.Valtor watched his presence, not uttering a single word but just observing.The simple robe he wore, dark like the deepest night, it seemed the one who had sew this cloth collected every detail into consideration.Another thing again, was the aura, It wasn’t just energy—it was a raw, uncontrolled power, barely held in check beneath his skin.Deep lines marked his face, not just from age, but from what seem to be similar in sort to a decades of battle, discipline, and wisdom. His eyes shower nothing else, but with a knowing—a sharp, unshaken clarity that cut through deception like a blade.No one dared to speak out of turn in his presence. His authority wasn’t spoken—it was FELT. You listened. You OBEYED. Because in that moment, standing before him, you understood
Unkindly Meeting
"Uh?...," Valtor looked around, then back to Aulus, "Me?"The old man nodded, "Yes, Child... Or do you not want to play a simple game of hit the blad old man?"Valtor blinked. Was that... A challenge?."Uh... You mean, like... Now?," He asked again, getting a grin as a response this time.Gap sighed audibly, palm pressed against his face, "He's going to do something dumb!."The Disciples shuffled back, gathering with mumbling of whispers;"A Combat Ni-user? That would be two! Master Gap and his grandson!""Even if he doesn't look well trained, the boy emits a high level of aura...""But, a grandson or not... He called High GrandMaster bald... And lived? Definitely, High GrandMaster must see something useful in him, or less... We could have carried his body to medical unit!.."Aulus stepped forward, the floor beneath his foot, subtly cracking with pressure, "Come, Valtor. Let me see if your Ni answers you, or rather still, you command it."Valtor exhaled slowly, raising his fists, When
To Ask A Million Questions...
"I WILL NEVER EAT WHATSOEVER MY GRANDFATHER SENT ME TO BUY!."I WILL NEVER EAT WHATSOEVER MY GRANDFATHER SENT ME TO BUY...."YIKES!..."Valtor folded his arms, glancing at a wide range of uncompleted space filled with unwritten words. "HOW THE HECK WOULD I GET THIS DONE?.."While doing this, the Blue Blob sat Infront of the courtyard, watching Valtor. It remained quiet for a moment, before speaking up, "MAMA!"Valtor slowly turned to its direction, "Yes?.""MaMa~!"Valtor stretched his hands, "Blobby, you know I really don't have time for your unspoken words, it doesn't speed up tim—""Valtor Burnwood, What do you intend on doing with that?"Valtor raised a brow, "With what?..""There is an item in your possession emitting a terrible aura of dark energy, it has no little error in the same detection of Gi!..."Valtor quickly went back into doing his work. Definitely, he would continue to do as it were, than to admit into taking the bead."Valtor Burnwood, do you understand my words? MA
To Be Suspicious
Tension. An uncontrolled palpitation. Respectful aura emitting an area of fear.These were the feeling radiating from a single emergency room.Finch cleared his throat, "So, um... I think I should be leaving now...," He said, trying to stand up, but was set down, by the armed man's authoritative voice,"RAID TEAM MEMBER, YOU WOULD BE THE MOUTHPIECE OF RYKER, IF HE DOESN'T SEEM TO REMEMBER ANYTHING ABOUT THE INCIDENT WHICH HAPPENED!."Finch immediately sat down, keeping his eyes on the ground, not wanting to say a single words throughout the entire stay in the Medical Unit.The armed man stepped forward, with a hand on his neck, but keeping his eyes straight ahead, "Good Day Mister Ryker. How are you feeling?"Ryker scoffed silently. A reaction not known to those surrounding him, but Finch alone (who was close enough)."I am well," He however replied."I see," The armed man said, with his calm facade slowly disappearing, when he said, "You seem to be the one leading the group, and I he
Half a Lie — Quarter to the Truth
"What happened at the center of the incident?," Ryker asked, keeping his emotions and facial expression at check."Yes!," Dan replied, placing both hands into his pocket, "I need to know what exactly killed your teammates!"Ryker lowered his head, "Fine! I'll speak up.. I'll have to say these to make sure that we are even and no other odds are at our paths."Dan nodded, "Yes.""It was a creature of darkness, a puppet with no control strings. It emitted vile shadows of Ancient darkness, one which cannot be tamed by the light. It was a... POWERFUL SERPENT, A SHADOW MONSTER!"Dan eyes showed an expression, which tailored that he was listening to all which was spoken. "How large?""Ten times the ordinary size of a Di-Ba! (A venomous snake with about ten times of poison as any other Snake. These serpents were linked to the darkness of the Shadow realm, and also to the family relation in Taxonomy to the Silver Skull Serpent . Ryker here uses this to explain the vast size and all that which
Someone worth more than Gold!
Dan raised a brow, "That's your point of the story, and it all seem all too well, enough to be believed. I take yours by your words. Then, another point of View," He looked at Finch, "What's your say about all Which happened?" Finch rustled through his hair. 'Can I actually lie Infront of all the top members and committee in one go? Definitely I know if I try hard, I would be caught almost instantly, so I need to be careful with the words I say.' He cleared his throat after those thoughts, "Well, I am... I..." The Commander gave him a sharp stare, "Keep your words at minimum! And say what you know. We only need some information, to know whether or not this Blue-eyed Boy is either for or against us!" "Oh!..." Finch took a deep breath. Calming his nerves, before speaking up, "When I left, as a coward would do, I ran away, far from the scene, not taking a single step back, but with strides, wider than wide steps. I left the Forest where the incidents had occurred. "My heart heavy wi
A Step Above The Other
Valtor knelt on the Snow, sniffing from the cold, and avoiding an eye-contact with Master Gap who stood on the Floorboard, staring dagger at him. So intense, it felt like lightning."Are you serious about all what you said to Master Aulus?," Gap asked, "DO YOU KNOW THAT MAN CAN SENSE BOTH LIGHT AND DARK ENERGY?"Valtor was about speaking up, but Gap didn't let his words sound of what end it would mean,"VALTOR!," He called out sharply, keeping the surrounding at a minimal to the noise received.Just as Gap had spoken up, the Divine Blob carefully walked, past him, with the bead visible in its stomach.Gap immediately had to look at it, watching how the dark energy radiated from within.He paused, stared at Valtor whose mouth slowly widened, 'IS THAT REALLY A DIVINE BLOB OR SOMETHING STUPID?'Gap looked at The Blob, "What is an heavenly entity who carries a whole lot of Ni energy, doing with a dark item?"The Blob slowly stared at Gap, but then, continued further without saying a singl
An Effort Not Worth Dying In
ECTO-TRAINING. An act to harness Ni-energy.Every living thing possesses Ni, the essence of life, through the gods and from the First Creator during the First Beginning.However, not all can harness their Ni, and as little as it may sound, based on the possibility to the probability of having to be a gods' chosen, it would mean there was a purpose to live.That aside, Ecto-training would take more than mind, thoughts and understanding to balance Ni and properly be able to make use of the energy during the first flow of power.And that was what Valtor was about to start.***"Sensory Awakening...," Gap repeated, his voice echoing throughout a quiet old cave with a candle burning, serving as the only light source, "For Sensory Awakening, We would used Void Meditation... To keep the mind calm and silence the thoughts, to feel the energy within..."Valtor looked around, "I don't know why you took me to an ancient cave..""Well, If you had stayed at the Residence, your mind would be kept o
The Bitter Truth
Sensory Awakening. Void Meditation.A training meant to open all senses of the human body, leading one into a world... A bridge between the living and the Dead.However, if one isn't fully accustomed to this act (as it should be)... One would react in the conscious world and a reaction not more than twice, would lead the soul into walking deeper in the unconscious realm.To end this, is to cause a crack between the person and the bridge...To bring the person back before he goes straight into the Spirit realm.This training although dangerous, has it's benefits in the meaning of Ecto-training. It allows one to be able to track and trace unusual Energy, and feel items radiating this.This act can also be used for Gi, but... It would follow a more strict process of shadows and death.Before one can understand the concept of Ni, one must first perceive its presence and that's through deep meditation, sensory deprivation, or exposure to extreme environments where Ni naturally manifests.
An Unexpected Face
Valtor carefully rinsed the dishes. His brows, furrowed with a frown.He reached for another dish, forgetting The Blob stood beside, watching the intensity in his eyes.He didn't hear a single thing it said, but instead, he thought about what happened in the trance.He reached for a knife, and cleaned the blade gently—Memories flashing straight back to what actually did happen.He didn't tell Master Gap everything, just a single detail... The main thing was that, he actually did feel a connection to the darkness who reached for him."You are one of us, yet you deny the fact and live with the possibility of wanting to be good," The darkness had said, "Sadly, you can't escape fate. We would be linked, no matter where you go, any path it takes you to... It won't be any distance to who and what we are... We are the Monarchs, the standing pillars for the resurrection of Chaos. The Finality shall be made True! The End of the Beginning."Valtor brows deepened even further, and he got back to
