《Loki’s Successor System 》Chapter 120: APOCALYPSE DAWN (5)
Advertisement
Jin quickly ducked as the red blast veered at him. The blast had ended up mercilessly destroying members of the plague behind him. However, the rocky creature did not care about destroying its own comrades.
Jin had heeded this. He quickly ran around the creature. It turned its head and body to follow him, blasting relentlessly. The erroneous blast—which had constantly failed to touch Jin—had burnt monsters accidentally. Jin was deliberately causing the rocky creature to annihilate more of its kind!
After doing so for a while; Jin had lunged toward the rocky creature from behind. He clenched his teeth, and slashed his green dagger at its back. His blade had made a clashing sound as if it had collided with sword, and then ... it had bounced off the sturdy material. No use.
Jin grimaced. "You would expect a weapon of the Gods to destroy simple rock ... but O fucking hell, it doesn't!"
As the creature turned around—finally halting its blast—Jin dashed left. The creature thrust its rocky wrist at Jin. The blade extending out of such. Jin sidestepped. Then, he quickly thrust his dagger into the red, glowing hole in the creature's chest: the core—much like a heart—where energy emanated.
As the blade sunk into the creature's core; its red eyes bulged. Its body wavered; veering in all directions, aquiver. The core's glow had intensified by over seven hundred percent. Jin was forced to squint to retain sight of the monster.
Jin quickly yanked his dagger out, and dashed away. The creature was about to explode! He ran away from the center of the circle and budged through a group of spectating monsters. They had tried to stop him, but that was when he used his dagger to lop hands off.
He constantly dashed through the group, nearing the tall Sorcerer who had remained etched behind his mind. In doing so, he looked behind his shoulder at the rocky creature who he had only just slain. Holes appeared in the creature, and thousands of red blast came out of these holes. Then, the creature had exploded in red, prevalent glory.

Unfortunately, Jin did not get any experience points ... what a pity.
Frowning at this unjustness, he continued toward the Sorcerer. He sprinted swiftly on his feet When suddenly, a human-like creature had caught him. The creature possessed pitch-black skin with shining stars on it. To Jin, its skin was reminiscent of a galaxy. The creature pulled Jin toward him. Jin quickly slashed at its hand, furrowing brows. The blade had simply passed through its skin like nothing, dealing no damage.
The creature peered into Jin's eyes. "You," it said, "it was your kind that had caused this ... you had created a monster! Revenge will be begotten!" its voice echoed as if in a cavern.
Jin continued to slash relentlessly at the creature. 'Come on, come on! Special attack, special attack!' he thought, clenching his teeth. The creature had cupped its hand around Jin's neck, strangling him. It was strong.
"Blade do not cut through the flesh of Oraxians! Can you cut the sky, boy!?" It gritted its teeth.
[Weapon special attack (Poisoning) upon next blow]
"I wanted a special attack but not that one," Jin slashed his dagger, "but it'll do for now!"
The creature had paused, as if paralyzed by Jin's attack. Jin quickly kicked off its chest, landing on his back. He hurriedly got to his feet, and continued toward the Sorcerer. A creature grabbed him. He slashed it, shredding through flesh. A creature stood in front of him, blocking his way. He quickly dashed, decaptitaing it. Then he beheaded another. Another again.
A tall skeletal creature stood in his way again; Jin slid through its legs. Another creature gnashes its draws it him. He dashed left, dodging and slashing it at the same time. He slashed again and again and again.

"STOP THE HUMAN FROM GETTING NEAR THE SORCERER!!! ATTACK ALL AT ONCE!"
"WE SHALL!"
"IF THE BOY RETRIEVES HIS TRUE POWER, WE LESSER CREATURES WILL BE DOOMED!"
"I INTEND NOT TO DIE BEFORE TAKING DOWN A HUMAN WITH SUCH CALIBER!"
"AND I REFUSE TO DIE AT ALL!"
"ATTACK YOU SPEECHLESS MONSTERS!"
"THE SORCERER'S SPELL WILL BE GONE SHOULD HE MOVE! STOP THAT HUMAN!"
Jin stood in the middle of thousands. Thousands of creature lunged at him. He simply stood, menacingly as they neared, screaming and roaring at him. "That's twenty nine," he slashed his dagger at his palm,"now that's thirty!"
His blood dripped as a system screen manifested.
[Weapon special attack (Gamma Explosion) upon next blow]
Jin grinned widely as the creatures all came from all directions. As they got in his reach, he quickly leaped into the air. He retained his smirk, dashing further into the air. Creatures jumped in efforts to get him, but most of their attempts were vain. Juxtapositioned, Jin flipped in the air, and bolted down at the slew of monsters.
His dagger electrified as it neared the group; a powerful sensation rushing up his hands. Jin crashed down on the creatures. And after a brief second delay, there was a huge green explosion. A voilent shake ensued. And finally, a pulsing shockwave. The green explosion—though not too large—had spanned accross the area. Beautiful, it was on Jin's part.
Hundreds of the creatures were sent pitching away in pieces. Others were torn radically asunder. Blood mixed. Red, blue, purple—all meshing together. This too was beautiful in Jin's regard; flooding him with a thrill stemmed by a glorious battle.
After landing on a knee, Jin had gotten up again. He bolted toward the Sorcerer who still hadn't moved from the very spot at which he stood from the beginning. Jin smirked widely. Not many were in his way of getting to the Sorcerer. Only a few had stood around said Sorcerer.
Jin jumped and dashed into the air. Then, he dashed again. The defending monsters would not be able to protect their Sorcerer when he had the high grounds Jin hurled his dagger at the Sorcerer from such height.
The dagger had stopped when it had reached close to the Sorcerer's face. Powerful telekinesis. The Sorcerer shifted his attention to Jin—
But wait ... where had the human boy gone? He was only in the air just now. Suddenly, the dagger had vanished from the Sorcerer's eyes. The Sorcerer qailed. Where did he go? Did he flee? No! Not when the battle was turning in his favor! Suddenly, the Sorcerer felt something approaching his body. 'Ahah! From behind!'

Ardent Tears
[Participant in the Royal Road Writathon challenge.] Youth is something to be treasured, for it is the foundation upon which all experiences are built. It is also a time when some may Awaken as Ardents or Stoics; individuals who can draw great power from the Resonance of emotions. Rowan’efrii is one such youth, but at what cost? This is the story of her journey; of love and loss, friendship and isolation, fortune and tragedy. What can a girl do when she is faced with all the wonders and horrors that the world has to offer? Live! In the Kingdom of Særis, a group of renegade lords are seeking to enslave young adolescents to forge them into Ardents and Stoics. Those that fall will be used in a war against the Azure King. Will they break Rowan, or will they turn her into the very thing that will destroy them. Ardent Tears focuses heavily on all kinds of relationships including: romantic, familial, platonic and sexual. The MC is a clear example of this, especially as she is poly. Because of this, I gave the story my own Poly Tag. This won't be anything like a Harem story and it is being written by someone who is polyamorous (me). There is also going to be several LGBT themes throughout which can't be represented through Tags. Ardent Tears is now on Top Web Fiction. If you like the story, I'd appreciate it if you give me a boost by following this link and pressing boost. Massive thanks to KrazeKode for the amazing cover art. And special thanks to MelasD and Selkie for the shout-outs.

Blood & Noodles
[participant in the Royal Road Writathon challenge] As they always have, humanity hunts the gods roaming the world, craving the supernatural power that flows within their veins. Even a drop is zealously guarded, passed from master to student through the ages. It is with this stolen power that the Blooded - those with divine blood coursing through them - grasp beyond mortality and achieve prestige, power, and greatness. Yet, for every fraction of power gained, thousands perish, slain by the gods' supernatural prowess. But everything is beginning to change. Eight years ago, for the first time in human memory, a god was felled. Part-time chef and full-time nuisance Orvi wants nothing to do with gods. Living in a derelict city, his only concerns are ensuring his adopted family's restaurant is prosperous and how to best beat the neighbourhood boys in a fight. If he's lucky, he might even snag a date with the farmer's daughter at the market. But even though he cares nothing for the gods or their blood, the world won't leave him alone forever. Because to reach godhood, one must first leave their humanity behind. *** The first arc of Blood & Noodles follows the adolescent Orvi as he attempts to navigate his rapidly changing home and - by his own definition - protect his family. The story is told almost entirely in the first-person, from the perspective of a teenager who isn't always the sharpest tool in the shed. There are tragic elements, especially in the current arc. It's character-focused and driven, though the protagonist's shenanigans are backdropped by a world operating independently from him. Orvi's a generally light-hearted character, and though the story veers into darker territory, I also want it to be able to make readers smile. Action sequences, despite the fantastical elements, are meant to be grounded and clearly-conveyed; Orvi is a brawler, not a warrior. I'm trying to write a story that's enjoyable to read and flows nicely, mainly because it's more fun to write. I'm also trying to improve my writing, so any feedback, whether positive or negative, is welcome!
