The Ancient Genes Chapter 110

Orena, 300 Km from the Border
" What are you looking at? Do you really think I won't kill? ", Axel said as he took a step forward.
The man in black cloak looked at him warily. He really didn't understand what happened earlier. But he knew that it could have very well killed him if it was aimed at his heart. But the thing that Axel didn't shoot at his vital parts confused him.
Was it possible that this guy was strong enough to toy with him?
" Who are you?", he asked with a menacing look in his eyes.
Hearing him Axel smiled as he took another step forward.
' Hell yeah!! He f*ck*ng fell for it!! But it's not done yet...calm down...calm...I have only one more bullet left. If I fail. We die. Calm...calm….'
" Which side are you from?", the man in black cloak asked as he stared down at Axel.
' What is this guy talking about? Side?...I will just play along. I only need to take a few more steps forward.'
" What do you think? Which side am I from?", Axel asked with a smile.
Hearing Axel, the look in the man's eye turned even sharper
" Your power is not something that humans have. And I don't remember the Demon kind to have such powers too.", the man spoke calmly.
' Demon...what does he mean by that? I thought that they only existed in animes.'
" Haha..Do you really think that you crappy humans and demons could compare yourself to me?", Axel said with a condescending look in his eyes.
When the man heard Axel, he glared at him with his piercing eyes. He felt that something was wrong. There shouldn't be someone who could look down at Demons in this entire realm.

Why?
Because of Vacaria, the Heavenly Demon.
" You really do talk a lot. Our Lord is the strongest existence in the realm. And you dare to say such words. You are definitely strong unless...its a bluff.", the man in the black cloak said with a laugh as he took a step forward.
' F*ck! I went too far!! He found out.'
Seeing the man move, Axel made up his mind.
He immediately moved towards the formation. The mana around him began to react and in this dangerous situation, it broke through the barrier of mid level mage.
" Damn! You piece of sh*t! You were only a lowly mid level mage.", the man in black roared in anger. It was a humiliation for him. He was none other than the Instructor of Mage Department and the James's servant. He was always looked up to. But now….no! he needed to wipe out this humiliation.
He kicked off the ground and dashed towards Axel as an eerily aura started to leak out of his body. But he didn't dare to release too much of his energy for the fear of the cave collapsing.
" You are dead, kid!! ", the man roared.
But at this moment, Axel brought his gun forward and aimed toward his head. Runes began to appear on the gun and what was surprising was the color of runes.
It was black.
There have never been a case of Black runes in the history of Magic.
Even the man in black was surprised. But, he soon realised it was giving him the same feeling from the bullet from a while ago. And this time it was aimed at his head.
"Bang!"
He couldn't allow the bullet to hit his head. Earlier, the bullet easily passed through his mana barrier. If the same happened, he would surely be dead.

He immediately slowed himself down and leapt towards the right while bringing his arms in for protection.
"Shnk!"
….
….
The bullet hit. It hit right at the back of the man's hand. And there was a small cut on his hand which was bleeding.
The man looked at the back of his hand in amusement before bursting out in laughter.
" Haha!!! I can't believe this. I really fell for it….This is the limit of your power. Even though it passed through my mana barrier, it couldn't damage me at all. And looking at you, I think twice is your limit kid.", the man said with laughter.
On the other hand, Axel stood there panting and sweating. He looked exhausted. The man in black cloak was right. Two times was his limit.
He had been working on this thing for the last year.
He named it 'Anti-magic'
The power that could erode away mana. But the thing was he couldn't use it properly. He could barely create a bit of Anti-magic and that was only enough to bypass the mana barrier.
But still Axel was smiling. Because it was enough.
" You are smiling at the time of your death. You really are insane.", the man shook his head.
" You really are sure about it? ", Axel asked with an exhausted voice.
" Are you not?", the man asked in amusement.
" Well, I would look around me before saying such words.", Axel replied with a smile.
At this moment, the man realised that the ground and the ceiling of the cave were shining. Runes had emerged out and connected to form a huge formation.
" Y..You sly ba*tard!! I will kill you!! ", the man roared as he dashed toward Axel. He was fooled time and time again. He had to kill this guy.
" Nah! I will turn your offer down. Hope to never meet you again, YOU f*CKING PIECE OF SH*T!!!", Axel replied calmly except for the last part.
" Boom! "
And the cave collapsed.
…
Orena, In another area.
" Why are you following my Lady? Nah! Leave it. I bet you won't speak. Anyways, the blood on your clothes already tells me you two are up to no good.", Norek who was sitting on the branch of a tree said as he looked down at the duo releasing an evil aura.
" Norek in the past, we might not have wanted to cross paths with you. But things are different now. Besides, there are two of us here. Are you really so eager for your death?"
One of the guy spoke in a teasing tone.
Hearing him, a smile crept up on Norek's face as he replied, " Then what are you waiting for? I really am eager to die."

Guardian's Folly, Dryad's Melancholy
With a life of retail getting him down, Cormac had long looked forward to his vacation of spending all week hiking in the woods. Accidentally saving a dryad and getting dragged into hidden world of magic brought that to an abrupt end. Ixia the dryad had been thrown into a long slumber, awoken by a kind man that she formed a fast bond with. She would need all the help she could get to reclaim her forest from sinister forces that had ruled her forest for ages in her absence. As both work together, they will find neither world is what they had thought. A modern world with magic lurking at the edges, and a hidden world of magic stretching the limits of "hidden". A dryad begins the slow path towards understanding the world she has awoken to as she tries to reclaim her forest, and a guardian wishes he had more than a shovel to help with all that.

YAOS 1 - Limitless Adventures - Yet Another OP Story Book 1
December 23rd 2018: Book 1 is now up at Smashwords and at Amazon. December 30th 2018: V1.1.2 of YAOS Book 1 is out, some content additions, fixed typos. Amazon's enhanced typesetting now displays tables properly. YAOS is shown through the eyes of some genius athlete getting OP inside a VR, ah wait, Full Immersion game, ?F.I.O?. Not a Hero, not a Nerd, just a driven individual paying for mistakes made, biding time until he can return to the Real World. He isn't defined like you'd normally do it, you can pick his looks and name all on your own, just like you do in video games. Believe it or not, keeping his looks undefined is harder than you think. His backstory isn't expounded in detail, but it drives his choices. Book 1 isn't about depressing sob stories but about fun and rushing forward, pursuing new horizons. Oh, and you'll end on a cliffhanger! Well, most serials do, so you will probably expect that without being told explicitly. But it isn't that bad, there's a lot of reveals and more to come once this book, that is the first in a planned three-part series, is finally ready for release on amazon et al. The published version will have: 1.) Godawful speaker tags, I hate them, they make you stop thinking and speed up editing so much. In hindsight they should have been in to begin with. But I stand by my goals proclaimed earlier. You guys should think while reading, that is the whole point of the exercise. Apply the knowledge and ideas, improve yourself, get creative! 2.) Pretty colored tables, the damned blue boxes, a lot of work, 69 in one book. Finally fixed amazon's centering issue. Can't say I liked the hours needed to debug that. 3.) The promised Mitara chapters. 4.) A cover! 5.) And lastly, updated polished versions of several chapters. MC shares more of his past, some terrible chapters (esp. 32) finally work. Some new scenes, minor rewrites in parts. Text flow and other issues. The current challenge is to maintain essential ambiguity while satisfying people wanting to know more without thinking three steps ahead. Balancing one with the other is tough. The smut which was in remains, but the story told is not to be superseded by it. A 15+ rating for the first book is also important, not to mention, YAOS wasn't meant to contain any smut to begin with. If the Author can turn to writing full time his output should increase, so please support YAOS #1 once it does finally release. ~Thank You~ No maps so far, that should be in, but is really hard to get done right. Again, tips are appreciated. Update September 2017: Stubbed chapters, sorry guys, currently don't have time to upload them elsewhere, polishing book 1 and 2, writing 3, takes precedence. Book 1 is in heavy editing, too much to keep synced and continuing editing. I'd need a site which offers JS-free rapid managing of chapters and comments. Coding one myself or setting a premade up is out of scope until I'm done with the books. RRL-old offered that, nuff said. This is only here because the author believes in fairies, nobody reads this, most likely. October to December 2017: Life threw some curveballs. February 2018: Book 2 draft 1 completed, at ~150K words. Book 2 is fairly epic in scope, requires 1 rewritten chapter, some editing. Tables and miscellanea are in, but needs at least a grammar pass. March 2018: Book 3 at 28k words, first arc, rest needs serious planning for spin-off and satisfying conclusion. July 2018: Yet another proofing/editing session of books 1-3, 101+ chapters, ~300k words. B3 at 48k, starts out great, but no ETA, no wordcount limit, in flux. But prioritizing my writing cannot be done, I hate the delays as much as you, but you will prefer the whole released in a timely fashion rather than wait. Knowing myself how excruciating waiting can be, at least you'll get significantly polished versions and an ETA on book 2 by release of book 1. December 23rd 2018: Book 1 is now up at Smashwords and in the process at Amazon et. al.. . To all who wait patiently, offered feedback, thanks again!
