Awakened
The forest trembled, Leaves quivered and roots buckled. Trees groaned under the unseen pressure, while Talon stood alone inside the circle, bones strained, eyes red, chest heaving.David floated just above the clearing, arms folded, his white coat rippling like a flag in a storm. His golden pupils scanned the trembling child below.He wasn’t even exerting full force.Only three percent.Yet the effect was catastrophic.[Aura Pressure: 3%][•Aura Pressure Reduction: ACTIVE][•Effective Pressure: 1.5%][Arcane Energy Cleansing: 2%...6%]A calculated reaction, David thought. 'Every muscle group showing signs of micro-tearing. But his core isn’t collapsing. He’s adjusting to the strain instead of breaking under it... Why?'Talon roared through gritted teeth. The pain in his limbs twisted his balance, and a trail of blood slid down his forehead.David analyzed his vitals automatically.{Heart rate: 192 bpm. Arcane node alignment: disrupted. Spinal torque: 4.2 N/m beyond juvenile threshold.
Pressure Training; How It All Happened
The wind outside had stilled. Inside the clearing, the world felt unnaturally quiet—like it was holding its breath.David stood, hands behind his back, his white leather coat shifting in the breeze, folds catching the sunlight through the trees. Across from him, the boy knelt, blood trailing from his forehead as he slammed it into the dirt again.“Please...” Talon cried. “I want to be strong... I want to protect... Please, be my master!”David didn’t move, but something deep inside tightened—something he couldn’t name.He had no memory of this boy. No memory of the world, not even his own past. But the tone in the boy’s voice—the desperation, the grit—it pulled at something visceral.And before David’s conscious mind could decide, his body moved.His mouth opened, speaking words as if from reflex.“If you can withstand my aura pressure for thirty seconds… I’ll accept you as my student.” His voice was calm. Firm. But his thoughts, 'Aura pressure? Where did that even come from?'He blin
Everything Falls In Place
The forest was silent after the chaos. The demonic beast’s corpse still steamed where it fell, its massive form sprawled between uprooted trees and scorched soil. David stood beside it, panting softly, his twin daggers flickering with residual spirit glow.He looked down at the boy—the unconscious Talon—bloodied, bruised, and clinging faintly to life. The red-haired girl had just vanished through the spatial gate with her guardian. And David… stood still, staring at the boy as something deep within stirred.He didn’t know why he cared. He didn’t even know the boy’s name.But somehow, the sight of Talon bleeding out sparked a sharp pang in his chest—a kind of urgency. A fragment of memory, too broken to form a sentence, whispered in his mind like fog:"You were meant to save him."Since his arrival, he'd lived on instinct. Something deeper than memory told him what to do—when to fight, when to move, when to act. And now, when he looked at the battered boy, something told him: 'Protect
Meeting His Parents
The circle ignited as It wasn’t a clean jump. It wasn’t supposed to be. His body was torn apart on the subatomic level, recompiled through a singularity carved out of Divine Light, then forced through a reverse entropy gate that hadn’t existed until he willed it into being. The Time Rune Core, located inside his sternum, began to crack from overload. His hair instantly bleached white. Veins popped along his arms. His vision dimmed. “I never asked why he did all that...” “I never talked to him...” “...at least this way I might get to.” A white pulse detonated. All recording ceased. All servers went dead. And the last thing the world knew of David Stormbane… was silence. *********** When David fell through the timestream, he didn’t just arrive in another era—he arrived at a convergence point between realms: where the Astral Tree met the Solar Nexus. It was called the Dawnroot. It was where the first Divine Seeds were formed—fragments of pure causality grown from
The Portal
“It’s been over forty years since the Red Sun became the norm for we humans. Never would we have thought we’d never see a natural sun again. And all this... is because of Talon Stormbane.” The holographic news anchor’s voice echoed across the lab, her tone dry but heavy with implication. “We thought demons would end the world. But no—our end came from one of us. From a Sentinel who pushed too far.” A slow reel of images followed—burnt cities, dry oceans, cracked farmland glowing red under a dying sky. And then came her voice again: “In a quest for immense power, Talon activated an unstable celestial flame. It devoured Earth’s skies, collapsing ecosystems. And in the chaos… he killed Gwen—his wife. David Stormbane’s mother. She died during the Red Sun heat storms.” “The only reason Earth Central still stands is because of her son… the greatest mind of our era.” Click. The hologram shut off with a snap of fingers. David stood quietly, his hand still lowered. The light fro
The Missing Piece
Talon stood frozen, shocked. If he were to count the time since his master disappeared, it had been seven years. Seven years of silence. Seven years with no explanation. And now, right at the moment everything could have fallen apart—David returned. David slowly descended to the ground, his white robe and long silver hair moving with the wind. Talon moved forward quickly, ready to hug him out of instinct. But halfway there, he stopped. He dropped his arms and stepped back. “Forget it,” Talon muttered to himself. He knew David wasn’t someone who welcomed casual greetings or emotional outbursts. He had trained under him for five years and knew his strict, no-nonsense nature. But something unexpected happened. David stepped forward—and hugged him.“I’m sorry for leaving,” David said quietly. Talon was stunned, He didn’t expect that not at all. “S-Sorry?” Talon mumbled, confused and caught off guard. He stood still, not knowing how to react. A few meters away, Master Feng watched
