Chronicles Of The Shura Clan Chapter 324
Advertisement
After taking the three ancient scrolls which contained the Peak 2nd Grade Martial Art Techniques and the two Low-Grade Artifacts from Inevitable, Nightmare gently placed them next to him before he sat cross-legged on the ground and closed his eyes.
Meanwhile, Inevitable was looking at Nightmare's every action with a hint of anticipation and excitement in his eyes.
Not only it was the first time that he's going to witness the summoning of Demonic Shura, but it was also the first time he's going to see one in person.
Not only Inevitable, but even Nightmare who was a Contractor in the Dark Domain of the Akasha Spiritual World also hasn't seen a Demonic Shura before.
Just like the Primordial Shura Gods, the Demonic Shuras and Angelic Shuras were noble and exalted beings that lived on the floating islands above the sky of the Akasha Spiritual World.
They were like royals in the Akasha Spiritual World. They never came down and Contractors like them weren't qualified to go there unless they passed the Tower Trials and became a member of the Shura Clan.
Other than that, the only way to see a Demonic or Angelic Shura was through summoning which cost an astronomical amount of contribution points.
Usually, when entering the Akasha Spiritual World, Nightmare always chose a secret and safe location as he would fall into an unconscious state which would leave him extremely vulnerable. However, he didn't have a choice but to do it openly in front of his master.
Chilah.
Meanwhile, not even a minute has passed since Nightmare entered the Akasha Spiritual World and there was a sudden sound like that of a piece of paper being ripped apart.
At the same time, it was as if space was being torn apart by a mysterious power as an oval shape small vortex suddenly appeared next to Nightmare.
The moment the small black vortex appeared next to Nightmare, Inevitable's expression suddenly darkened.
He could feel an extremely dark and evil power coming out from within the small vortex, a power that didn't belong to the world of living as it reeked of death.

That power was so evil and sinister that it caused Inevitable to let out a muffled groan and took a step backward.
It was as if the most terrible thing in the universe and the thing that he was afraid of the most was inside that small vortex.
His heart even stopped for a brief second as an instinctive fear rose within. It was something he that has never felt before ever since he came to the Omega Galaxy.
Meanwhile, Nightmare was still in an unconscious state while sitting in a meditative stance on the ground.
Unlike Inevitable, he didn't feel any evil aura. He didn't even know about the sudden appearance of the small black vortex next to him. He was completely oblivious to everything that was happening around him.
Swoosh!
In the next second, from within the small black vortex, a creepy dark tree root that looked like an octopus tentacle stretch out.
Like a snake, the thick dark tree root slithered on the ground before it arrived in front of the three ancient scrolls and the two Low-Grade Artifacts and coiled around them.
After coiling around the three ancient scrolls and the two Low-Grade Artifacts like a snake, it slowly and creepily dragged them within the small vortex.
The second the dark evil tree root brought the three ancient scrolls and the two Low-Grade Artifacts within it, the small vortex instantly closed on itself and everything returned to normal.
It was as if it was never there and everything was just an illusion. However, the disappearance of the three ancient scrolls and the two Low-Grade Artifacts would prove one otherwise.
"It seems like the power of the Akasha Spiritual World and the Primordial Shura are even greater than I thought."Uttered Inevitable in a solemn tone after witnessing the event that just transpired in front of him.
If he didn't witness it with his own two eyes, he wouldn't believe it.
Soon after the small vortex was closed, Nightmare Who was deep into an unconscious state suddenly opened his eyes.

The first thing he did was looking at the location where the three ancient scrolls and the two Low-Grade Artifacts were. His expression suddenly changed after seeing that they were gone.
Without waiting for Nightmare to ask him any questions, Inevitable explained everything that transpired while he was within the Akasha Spiritual World.
After listening to his master's explanation, Nightmare was stunned. He had no idea all of this was happening while he was within the Akasha Spiritual World.
When they told him the transaction was complete and they have already acquired the items, he didn't really believe it.
Also, he finally understood why they asked them to place the items next to them when making a transaction. It was so they could retrieve that way.
At the same time, he was also frightened to the core. He realized that his whereabouts could be found easily by the Akasha Spiritual World. There was no hiding in front of them.
If they could open a small portal next to him to retrieve the items sold, they could also send experts to kill him wherever he went through the same mean as well if they were to find out about his betrayal.
Seeing Nightmare's expression, Inevitable could tell what he was thinking as he coldly asked " Did you summon the Demonic Shura?"
Hearing his master's question, Nightmare suddenly jolted awake as he answered" Yes master. He should be here within the next second."
Sure enough, before Nightmare's voice could even fade away, distortions appeared in the emptiness behind him. An oval-shaped gigantic vortex formed up similar to the previous one but way bigger.
At the same time that vortex appeared, all the movements in the world froze!
Both Inevitable and Nightmare felt a creepy chill while staring at the giant vortex in front of them. It was a dark and silent expanse. There was no light that could infiltrate this place.
They felt that this was the end of the world of the living. By crossing this place, one would reach the underworld.
Nightmare was even worse off. He trembled with fear and felt that this giant vortex was the agape mouth of a prehistoric creature. Any intruder would never be able to come out.
In the next second, an evil and fiendish creature slowly walked out from within the giant vortex. The creature looked like a godfiend that just crawled out from the depth of hell.
The creature was over seven feet tall and had a pair of black wings that blotted out behind his back.
His eyes were as red as blood. This was a monstrous pair of blood eyes that was capable of devouring the soul of all those who gaze at them.
He had a pair of black horns on his forehead which bent backward. Just like his eyes, his hair was also red.
His sharp canine teeth could be seen sticking out his upper lips as though he was a wolf. Also, his whole body was engraved with countless devilish complicated scarlet patterns.
At the instant he came out, a terrifying evil energy erupted forth from his body which ravaged the world and suppressed all the dimensions here.
Whether it was Nightmare or Inevitable, they both shuddered at the instant this devilish creature appeared. It wasn't because of his strength, but because of the vicious and evil aura emanated by his body.
The evil creature looked like the incantation or the spokesperson of death and destruction. It was as if killing was his favorite entertainment, and fear was his favorite food.
After coming out of the giant black vortex, the evil creature looked at both Inevitable and Nightmare.
After looking at both of them, he slowly walked toward Nightmare and coldly said. " I am the Demonic Shura # 309. How may I be of your service, Contractor?"

To The Far Shore
Post apocalyptic Oregon Trail. The apocalypse has come and gone. And come back again, and left again... nobody really knows how often. Nothing lasts forever, but nothing is ever completely gone. Which is a shame for young Mazelton, as his family has been around a terribly long time, and made an astonishing amount of enemies. Millenia's worth. So he has to run- from mobs, cannibals, soldiers, sailors, cholera, cattle, thieving sales-monks, starvation, mechanical horrors, vengeful spirits, negotiating your own marriage, and poison of every sort. Fortunately, his not terribly nice family has trained him well in the arts of core polishing. Or as you and I might know it- turning radioactive pellets into useful tools. And weapons. Updates Monday-Wednesday-Friday. Usual defensive tags applied. The goal isn't exactly family friendly, but you have probably seen worse on network TV. After the watershed. Not full blown HBO, let's say. This is the first novel I am sharing publicly, so feedback is very much appreciated and encouraged. Act 1 of the novel is completed, but do please let me know what works, what doesn't, and what you would like to see more of. Thank you, and Enjoy!

Rimward Bound
Every citizen of the sky-cities of His Majesty's Star-Empire knows that a ship, both sky- and star-, is more then just a few bits of metal. It is the grand sum of it's hull and the crew that sail it. 'Hulls of battle-steel and men to match!' That's what the Navy's recruitment poster's claim at least. Every sailor knows that there is one more component that the city-bound folk ignore at their own peril: the soul of the ship. That it takes both man and hull to make a true ship, and that neither alone serve well or for long. In 8225 Lord Jeffrye Saltonstall the Fourth, Political Lord of the Surveyor's Corps, demands semi-automated ships to 'reduce the loss of life among our brave crews', manages to convince the other politicians and bureaucrats to fund them, and gets the Office of Ship Construction to sign off on the ships as structurally sound. Dockyard workers shake their heads at the ships, muttering that they are cursed from birth, even as construction drags on. In 8230 the Explorer, first of her class, is launched. She sets out in 8233 to great fanfare on a trip expected to last six months. Neither she nor her twelve-person crew is ever heard from again. By 8235, the remaining seven Explorers are are commissioned. Lord Saltonstall managed to find crews for six of them but at the cost of mass resignations. The Night Horse, last of the Explorer class, sat in reserve as her sister-ships served well enough despite ill luck and misfortune. The Office of Ship Construction quietly issues notice that no more semi-automated ships are to be built and that all active Semi-automated ships are to be quietly retired and broken up for scrap over the next ten years. The Night Horse, sitting in reserve, is missed due to bureaucratic oversight. In 8250 Lord Ayland Wynstryngham the Eighth assumes the office of Political Lord of the Surveyor's Corps. His first act is to issue notice that no ship is to be without crew nor sit in dock or reserve for longer then required for maintenance and upkeep. The Night Horse, all but forgotten, is quietly brought back into active service. Recruiting a crew for her proves another matter entirely. What poor or desperate fool would willingly sign on to crew, much less command, a cursed ship and spend months or years in deep space? Well, you would, of course. Where else is a kid from the gutters going to find that kind of freedom in the service of His Majesty? A [participant in the Royal Road Writathon challenge] 2021. Warnings: Second person is used in this work. Semi-Polished draft: Posted chapters are subject to revision as needed as things progress. Mild Profanity on occasion.
