In the corner of large garden, a nice-looking tree with vibrant green leaves stood, casting a dark shadow due to the afternoon daystar.This green tree casted an unsettling picture in the minds of any who saw it as it was weird to find a tree with green leaves in this wasteland.Under the natural shade provided by the tree, Darius sat on a simple wooden chair with a cup of tea in his hand. Next to his chair was a small wooden stool with delicate and beautiful designs on its surface.Taking a sip from the ceramic cup, he closed his eyes to enjoy the taste. He dropped the cup on the stool, not before sniffing up the rich aromatic smell."I'm glad you like it." A raspy voice came from his right. Darius nodded his head in approval, his back relaxed completely against the back of the chair.To his left, the same chair and stool was also arranged the same way as his under the shade.But, an old human woman who looked to be in her sixties sat on the chair. She had long straight white hair tha
Within the vast emptiness of the dark void, two human-like figures, a man and a woman, stood exactly five meters away from each other. There was no platform of any kind beneath their feet, even then, they stood firmly not losing their balance.The man looked to be in his late forties with a mohawk hairstyle, the two shaved sides of his head complimenting his appearance. The black suit with purple lining he wore could not hide his well-muscled body. He floated there with legs put together and hands behind him which emphasized his large muscle-packed chest. The most fascinating thing about the man was his pure black eyes with glowing purple pupils that looked intimidating even when he wasn't frowning."After so many years... I guess this is it, *sigh*. " The man said in a deep and calm voice that echoed out in the void."Yes, it was bound to happen anyway," said the woman standing away from the man. Although shorter than the man, she was still quite tall even though there was no one arou
There's a saying that everything that happens in the universe has an explanation, whether it be logical or mystical, but sometimes what is to be explained doesn't matter, what matters is the level of understanding possessed by an individual to process that explanation. Nevertheless, that means that the existence of gods shouldn't be an enigma.All beings who possess a soul can be categorized into different classes namely; Beasts, Mortals, Espers, Spirits, Otherworlders, and gods. Every one of them is unique in their ways, especially the mortals and espers who are spread countless races and spread across different levels of civilization.The gods, being the most unique of all entities, have a unique way of coming into existence. For something or someone to die they must first have life and ALL that has life can and will die. However, it's a different case for gods because they don't even possess life so therefore they cannot and should not die, the concept of life and death will for
Jurdelious sat comfortably on a yellow couch that could normally contain three people, occupying half of the entire couch with his shoulders alone. In front of him was a wide screen showing a news channel, the reporter was talking about a wanted group of terrorists whose images were put on display just in case the civilians saw them. His eyes which were no longer black with purple pupils but regular black and white showed that what he was hearing on the screen was only amusing him and nothing more."*sigh*, mortals and their shenanigans," He said.Krene's voice came over from the kitchen like she heard his voice all the way from there." Oh don't be a hypocrite Jurdelious, your ways aren't pure either" Although she said this, her face was neutral, she didn't really care about what he was saying."That's different" He stood up from the couch, revealing his seven feet form, and headed to the window to just stand there. He stared at the green clouds that only appeared during the middle o
Everyone at the scene was completely shocked by what just happened.A man with glowing purple eyes had just shown up out of nowhere and pushed their car 'gently' with his leg, in the process killing eight men including the black-suited leader gruesomely.Also claiming to be some god or something. Teddy and the rest of the armed men were completely flabbergasted. But seriously, no one would react to a man pushing a car out like it was a weightless skateboard normally."Hmm, I've already suppressed my strength so much. Everything just feels like cardboard these days," Jurdelious muttered to himself.If other people heard him, the level of their shock would have increased. How much of his strength was he suppressing and how strong was he exactly?Teddy and the rest of the men stood rooted to the spot, "what! Wait... what just happened?" he said as his mind tried to explain what he had just seen.Fortunately or unfortunately, Jurdelious's voice woke him from his stupor. "Normally, I would
*One Year Later*Al'ravee followed Ris's advice and started meditation. He did his research and found out that what Ris had said about his father was true, he was starting to wonder what else he didn't know about his parents. He followed some online meditation sessions every night before going to bed and it did help. Until now.Al'ravee was currently sitting on the bed against the wall in his room. In his hands was a large math textbook, and beside him was a notebook and scrunched-up pieces of paper. Barking sounds could be heard in the background from the neighborhood."Why does he have to make it so difficult to understand? Why must we show our workings, huh? How did those guys do it anyway? If only I could copy how they did theirs" Al'ravee had at some point developed a habit of talking to himself whenever he was alone.*BARK BARK*The sound of the dogs barking traveled into the room from the neighbor's house. At this point, Al'ravee's face showed extreme irritation. Because of his
Mortals and Gods.Among the two possessors of consciousness, mortals can be considered to be at the bottom, in terms of quality that is. Their existence was sustained mostly by decisions made instinctively towards external stimuli and they possessed a really low level of base individual power compared to the godsBeasts, usually low intelligent categories of mortals. Destined to be eternally oppressed by the smarter, stronger, and well-organized members of their class.They were either tamed or killed.That was why these two dogs did what any other large aggressive dog would do.They charged forward baring their fangs and claws, hell-bent on drawing first blood.Initially, the distance between Al'ravee and the two dogs was around six to seven meters but it was shortened within two and a half seconds.The slim dog which was faster than the chubby one reached him first.Al'ravee stared ahead with a blank expression.His instinct would have told him to run or dodge, but he lacked the most
Al'ravee woke up on his bed to find his books on his lap, no cuts were on his body and his clothes were as good as new. For now, he couldn't remember anything.He went downstairs to get something to eat because he suddenly felt like he hadn't eaten in days.His parents were not home. Probably didn't bother telling them where they were going after seeing him sleeping.For some reason, he felt calm. Picking up his phone, he decided to read an e-novel while he ate.This was what he did during his free time. Reading e-novels and comics....*The next week* ...Al'ravee could be seen walking through the school gates along with hundreds of other students.He checked the time on his mobile device before proceeding to his class. Upon entering the classroom, his sight fell upon a few students. Not all had arrived yet or we were just not in class.Al'ravee spotted his 'gang' sitting together in one corner of the classroom. Four pupils could be seen sitting by the window having a discussion.
