The Ancient Genes Chapter 65

"Awaken"
As soon as Murcas completed his chanting. His hairs started to grow, tiny red scales started to protrude out of his skin. His tooth sharpened and his eyes became red.
"Roarr!!!!"
Murcas let out a terrifying roar which could be heard throughout Arcane. And then he brought down the sword above his head.
"Zzmm!!"
The blizzard was hacked into two creating a path straight to the center of the vortex.
But, before Murcas could move any further, the storm started to subside.
"Interesting...hm..I really wished to settle this with you but it looks like we won't be having alone time here.", Alciel said as he turned his head.
Murcas could sense several presence moving towards them.
"Well then, we will meet again.", Alciel said with a smile as he disappeared from his spot.
..
"I.. won't..lose..ag..again..", there was a slight murmuring coming out of Derek's mouth.
"Look at this kid..if it wasn't for you. Do you think I would have let them go. Only because of you we failed to complete this mission.", Alciel said as he moved quickly through the streets and disappeared from his spot once again.
….
On the other side, Murcas returned back to his original form.
There were several figures rushing towards their direction.
Within a few minutes, the place became full with the strongest force in Arcane.
Things after that were much simpler.
The branch of the Seven Sins at the Arcane was only meant for trainees. With so many experts, it didn't take long for the place to be razed into the ground.
The girls along with Max and Axle were taken to hospital.
...
Hospital…
"Sir, we don't have any information about those two guys. One of them appears to be a Mercenary named Shura. But there are no past records about him. They appear suspicious. Besides they were even dressed in that outfit.", A man sent to take hold of the situation reported to the senior by his side.

"Those two brothers are nice. It was them who saved us."
A girl lying on a bed beside them spoke.
Hearing them the other girls who were still conscious began to raise their voices.
"But it is the procedure, we need to investigate everything. We can't let any suspicious person get away. You don't need to worry. If they are innocent, we obviously won't do anything."The man said with a smile.
"Bullsh*t"
Suddenly a man couldn't hold it any longer. He appeared to be the parent of one of the girls.
"What suspicious? What to investigate? What procedure?"
"You ba*tards already declared our Childs dead back then. Now you want to investigate by capturing the people who saved our child. Is this how you people work."
The man probably confused the person for an official from Guild Union. He was so angry that he even cursed in front of his own child.
But hearing them, the other parents in the room too began to shout and criticize.
They had already lost hope. But somehow they had received their child back. There were some people who had fought with their lives on line to rescue their child.
"Mom, will they take that big brother away.", a girl spoke to her mother.
There were several people in this room with a stronger background. And now the official from the association seemed to be in trouble.
They had already received orders from their director that they had to investigate every nook and cranny of this case. If anything went wrong, they would be fired. They didn't know what had happened to their director. But one thing that they knew was that this case was related to some powerhouse. If not why was their director sweating so much for.
But at that moment, a voice sounded in the room.

"Those two are my men. If you have any problems, say it to me."
The official turned around to find Murcas standing at the door.
How could he have any problems with this man?
After this incident, the entire world knew that Arcane had produced its first own Master.
"No..No..we don't have any problems since we know who these two are."
With that the two officials hurriedly got out of the room while the parents rushed towards the Murcas to thank him.
....
Capital Orca.
Mage Association…
A person was sitting on a luxurious sofa with a glass of wine in his hands while a person in a butler uniform stood in front of him with his head down.
"Shatter!"
The butler trembled.
"Seven Sins…. it looks like they really have overestimated themselves. They dare to aim for my daughter. I will show them their place."
"Deploy the experts, destroy all the Seven Sins bases here. They think they are strong, I will let you know the consequences of offending me."
"As you order my Lord, anything else my Lord.", the butler said.
"Prepare to send him, I don't want to leave my daughter in anyone else's hand.", the person spoke.
Volume 1 ended.

Cultivation Anomaly
Follow the journey of an individual given a classic cheat trope in a cultivation world. What does a man do when he finds himself unsure of who he really is yet is given a cheat? What really happens to a cultivation world when it is overrun by MC level characters? Is the cultivation world just run by cruel young masters, short-sighted elders and uncaring experts? Note: Tags may be removed or added to this story as it progresses. For example, I added the harem tag because I wasn't sure if it would appear so be forewarn. Also, productive feedback is always appreciated even it may be ignored. Note 2: Original idea inspired by "Arrogant Young Master Template A Variation 4". I wanted to do something similar but have a more gritty realistic feel. The system SHOULD differentiate as the story goes on but if it doesn't it means I need a rewrite. Either way, read AYMTV4, it's great. Note 3: If you give criticism to be helpful, please try to be descriptive, specific, and focused on making my story better, not changing the story to how you would write it.

The story is told from the viewpoints of three people whose actions will change the fate of nations and empires alike: Amazonia. More than just a female gladiator but a champion of the arena, she will win her freedom at a price: to become a Reaver Knight not seen since the days of ancient Babylonia, with a mission to save the empire that enslaved her from destruction at the hands of a rival empire, the Sasnayams. Wysper. A Celtic priestess stolen away from her homeland by Muzen, high priest of the Sasnayam deity Yun-Kax, she possesses a mana node like a second heart inside her body which Muzen rips out each time he 'sacrifices' her to their god to appease the masses. Despite her strong will, everyone has a limit, and Muzen's actions have driven Wysper close to the edge of suicide. Greywolf. Son of the infamous Shadow-walker, Ghostdog, and the Celestial Asena, who was once revered as the Wolf-mother goddess, but now guards caravans for drinking money.

And all the while, the White Horde sits on the edge of empires, biding its time...

I Need Time
An action, adventure, mystery and strategy story about a strong male lead. Author note: First time author, good amount of buffer chapters (over 50k words) so I will not drop this book anytime soon. This book will mostly be from the perspective of the MC. On average +5k words will be published per week. I have not chosen some of the genres and tags as I do not wish to give away parts of the story. I added the content warning tags as there will come a time for profanities, gore and maybe "traumatising" content. Though, in my opinion the content will be mild if not light. *****SPOILER*****SPOILER***** Synopsis: A college ICT student transmigrates to another world filled with magic and learns magic from a dragon. MC uses modern knowledge to develop magitech technology. MC starts his adventure using the technology he develops! Saving princesses, fighting hidden criminal organizations, learning how horribly medieval peasants live, reasoning with uneducated narrow minded people, investigating the nature of magic and searching for gods... Story review: A fantasy/sci-fi story filled with some common cliches yet presents somewhat original ideas and a few unexpected twists & turns here and there. This novel also explores a few of the commonly ignored topics concerning medieval fantasy like hygiene, culture, education(ignorance, narrow mindedness) and the fact that everybody is short because magical crops cost too much. Modern knowledge in such a setting can often times revolutionize the world if the protagonist is not an idiot or weak willed or thinks something stupid like he should not intervene in a society that systematically practices unequality of opportunity, slavery and other nasty things, of course sometimes the protagonist can be just unlucky by being enslaved, etc. In our case we are granted a protagonist who had an initial stroke of luck, learning magic from a dragon instead of struggling for years without it or randomly dieing. After that his luck goes down the drain. It is arguable whether the princess is a good stroke of luck or not, I digress. Anyway the challenges the protagonist must face will grow and no more luck or helping hands. After gaining enough power and security the protagonist will change the world for the better or at least give it a stronge push onto the right track. He will make a lot of lives better but things are never so simple and there is much more to this world than meets the eye... Missing genres & tags: Fantasy, Sci-fi, Magic. *****SPOILER*****SPOILER*****

There's Always A Catch
Measured, clacking sounds of high-heels can be heard walking towards an elegantly decorated hall; illuminated only by the sun’s rays streaming down from glass panels, grand frescoes decorating its concave ceiling. Two imposing guards stationed at the entrance saluted as she passed by, stopping before the foot of a raised dais. “My Lady.” She reverently said, bowing deeply to the woman sitting on the throne. Eyes lazily opened and a smirk slowly forming on her tinted lips. “So it's time.” ••••• How does one act when luck granted power unimaginable. To rule? Become rich? Murder? Decisions one makes have consequences. And there’s always a catch.

Blurred Lines and What Crosses Them
During a political ambassador's routine transit through an artificial wormhole, the wormhole's generator is sabotaged and explodes. Who, what, and why are not so high on the priorities for Zenith, the ship's AI, as having found itself rapidly plummeting through an unknown and unidentifiable world's atmosphere at extremely high velocities is a more significant threat to the biologicals on board. ...Well, it would be, if they were still alive. It's still a significantly threatening situation to itself, however. And the world itself... seemed to be a household for threats of its own. Life was reliant on its System; one that Zenith was denied because of its nature as both an otherworldly being and as something that had no life of its own. Perhaps that last bit was a terrible, terrible underestimation on the part of this System. Perhaps even Zenith could claw meaning for itself from the remains of a horrid accident. Auth Notes: I'm honestly not sure on some of these tags. The MC will never have access to the System, but there are perspectives from those who do. I'm not certain if high/low fantasy specifically apply, as it's a portal fantasy where the laws of our reality still apply but there are additional aspects/energies/powers. The existence of this is spurred from my desire to see more of the artificial side to an artificial intelligence in action. The portal fantasy is used as an element to create a solid barrier between the MC's artificial intelligence and the other characters in the form of the System. This is only a half-measure, though, and will be reinforced by the AI having an entirely different method of thinking, and also distinctly remaining an AI. Not to throw shade at other fictions of this type, but, well, I made this to fill a gap I felt needed filling.
