[POV Reo]
While I was returning to where Eric and Emma were I sighed once again. I was really disappointed when Romulus's mind broke… at first, it didn't register in my mind but when it finally did I wasn't happy.
Yes, Reo, that is why you shouldn't dish out pain before asking them questions. Well, it wasn't a huge loss for me though, he wasn't Sublime after all, and not getting his memories won't matter much. From what I have seen in comics it didn't matter much.
Romulus spent most of his extremely long life, destroying and playing with other people's lives. He might have looked tough but he was a coward through and through… after all, he did everything from the shadows.
I finally arrived where Emma was and found out that she along with some other people (Inhumans) were stuck in a hall because they were being shot at from the other side of the wall. There was quite a distance between the two groups… that must be why Emma was unable to use her mental powers.
Since Emma was in a pinch, I decided to give her some help. After using some really nasty spells on the guards the firing finally stopped. "It's clear now" I said in a loud voice and Emma immediately walked out of their cover along with the Inhumans.
"Is that all of them?" I asked gesturing towards the 5 individuals behind her. All five of them looked like they were teenagers. Two of them were girls while the rest were boys.
"Yes, there was another one but he succumbed to the experiments" Emma said looking sad and I nodded my head in understanding. The five of them looked really scared.
I was about to say something but all of a sudden, a huge explosion shook the whole facility. "Let's get out of here, we can talk later" I said because the explosion was so large that the whole place was falling apart. The hell is Eric doing??
Emma nodded and started to follow me, the kids also followed Emma without saying anything. When we finally came out of the facility, we saw that Eric was floating over the facility and dropping off huge chunks of metals over the facility.
I signaled Eric to come down… most of the guards were already dead now. Eric had already noticed us and when he saw my signal he floated down and landed in front of us.

"The two of you go back to Elysium and take the 5 of them with you. I will deal with this place" I said in a no-nonsense tone and both Eric and Emma agreed. I pulled a small chunk of metal from the building and made it into a portkey and handed it to the two of them.
I said the activation phrase and the 7 of them were whisked away. Then I finally turned towards the facility. Looks like the stunned guards were also destined to die… I mused in my mind. With that thought, I started to gather my power.
"Shinra Tensei" as soon as the words escaped my lips a huge force erupted from my body and everything around me was blown away.
When the dust cloud finally settled down I found myself standing in the middle of a giant crater. My powers have grown a lot stronger…
Satisfied with my work, I decided to return. I was in no hurry to talk with the Inhumans and Eric and Emma could already manage it on their own so I decided Flash Step to my home.
So, I Flash Stepped right outside my house… I was about to walk in when a sensed a metal skeleton sitting on the nearby hill. Looks like Logan was allowed to leave… I sighed once again and decided to talk with the guy. Without making a sound I Flash Stepped once again and appeared behind Logan.
Logan was staring at the ocean while drinking beer. "Trust me bub, you don't want to be near me" Logan said in a mocking tone.
"I don't think that you would be able to do anything to me" I said and Logan finally turned around. His eyes grew slightly wide when he saw me.
"True… I won't be able to do anything to you even if I tried" Logan mused and I sat down beside him.
"Can I get a bottle too?" I asked and Logan didn't say anything and handed me a beer bottle from the ice crate he had brought along with him.
"I heard what happened to you yesterday and believe me it wasn't your fault" I said and took a sip from the bottle.
"None of that matters now…" Logan said in a lost tone.
"Yes, it matters because you are getting a completely fresh start… the guy who did that to you is dead now so now you are completely free from his influence" I said and Logan's head shot towards me.

"Who was it?" Logan growled out in anger.
"His name was Romulus, he was some kind of ancestor to your family. He liked to play with people's lives and he was doing the same with yours…" I said and took a large swig from the bottle.
"Then he deserved to die by my hands… not you" Logan said in clear rage.
"Yes, I don't deny that but this was much bigger than your revenge, you can't always be selfish, right? I am only telling you this so that you could leave all of this behind and start anew" I said and chugged down the rest of the beer in the bottle.
Logan didn't say anything during that time and looked contemplative. "For whatever it's worth… Thank you" Logan said in a grateful tone. I simply nodded my head and Flash Stepped right inside my room.
After getting freshened up I came out of my room and decided to visit Momo's lab and see if there was anything I could help her with or not…
[POV Agent Tonks]
Even though I didn't like the mission, there wasn't anything I could do so I decided to treat this mission like a holiday… just like Hillsy recommended. But before I could do that I needed to get my hands on some files.
The file contained every detail regarding the Colorado facility where the people from the farce trial were being moved. Nobody would know anything is wrong until it's too late because I am not swapping the files… I am copying the contents.
Nobody would doubt me since I had already checked out of the gate and there was no way of entering the base if you don't check your ID at the entrance… well, that's the rule for normal Agents like us… I don't know if Fury needs to do that too or not.
I finally finished copying everything inside the file. Hump!! I bet nobody has ever planned something like this… nothing can stop Agents Tonks. As soon as I thought that, I tripped. My foot hit the rack stand and I skilfully planted my face on the floor.
Ugh…!! Yes, nobody is a match for Agent Tonks except the floor and all the types of furniture. Thankfully the skin on my face is very thick due to intensive training I did since I was a child or my poor face would have been bruised. I pouted and pulled myself up from the floor.
Not wanting to meet my equal once again, I Flash Stepped right into my apartment. I kept the file on the bed and went to take a shower. Ah… a hard-working Agent like me deserves a nice and warm shower after the end of the day. I tripped once again but this time I expected it… so I caught myself before I could have landed on my face.
After enjoying a nice shower, I got dressed in casual clothes and picked up the file. Hmm… what kind of hair should I sport today?? I contemplated for a few minutes when an idea popped into my mind.
My hair turned into neon yellow and my hair morphed into a mohawk with huge fringes hanging in front of my face… hmm… this looks perfect on me, I cheered internally and Flash Stepped right outside our house in Elysium.
I entered the door and headed straight for the kitchen and found Jean was already there. "Hi, Jea…" I was cut in the middle when my foot hit the fridge and I tripped. I was about to plant my face on the floor once again but I stopped mid-air.
"Hello, Dora. I like what you did with your hair" Jean greeted me in an amused tone. I was pulled up to my feet and I looked at Jean in complete awe… before Jean could say anything I pulled her into a tight hug.
"You saved me? You are the best sister I could have asked for" I said when I separated from her and wiped off a tear from my eye. Jean looked completely overwhelmed and didn't know what to say… yes, she must be overwhelmed because the awesome Agent Tonks said something so heartfelt to her.
I sat down and decided to wait for the others… the others arrived soon and I finally handed the file to Reo. But before taking a look he pecked me on the lips… butterflies fluttered inside my stomach.
Reo checked the file while preparing the food for us. During dinner, I finally told Reo about my latest mission and he agreed to go along with me… I cheered internally when no one else decided to join us.
Hehe… after working so hard I definitely deserve some holiday with my boyfriend…

Homecoming | A Chronicles of Ascension Story
When Jethen was captured by slavers, his childhood was torn from him and left shattered half a world away. When he finds himself back home decades later, by methods he does not fully understand, he finds that the life he has lived has changed him far more than he knew. In a home he no longer knows. Places and people at the same time familiar and foreign, he must decide - stay and help with his parent's business, or return to the land that remade him and the family he made there. --------- Homecoming started as just a short story to break an episode of writers block. It has since morphed well beyond that into a novel in it's own right, and may well end up with a sequel. The writing of Homecoming became a bit of a self induced challenge to improve my initial, first brush, writing quality. Each chapter was written raw, given a once over read and edit, and then posted. In this way I am forcing myself to write better from the start. I do hope you enjoy the story and will leave a comment or review, and if you see an issue, feel free to let me know as well. I know it is not nearly perfect, and it will get a full and proper edit once I am done. Never hurts to fix things along the way though. As an additional note. The story has undergone a structural rework and has been reposted in an updated structure and sequence of chapters. If you have read this story already, I invite you to do so again in this new structure.

God Slaying System
Issac was known to be one of the strongest players of Blue Sky City. During the initial stages of the start of The Heavenly Domain, he had already gained a lot of power and was going to become even stronger then the guild leader. But, he was betrayed by the guild leader as he feared he would be more powerful then himself and was killed until he got back to level 0. Heck, they even stripped him of his 'Sword of Heroes' that he got from completing the Diamond Ranked quest and took it away. After all that, he was banished from the guild left with nothing. Now, he could not even compete for being strong as he was. That was the time he found the God Slayer Temple. After this encounter, he was no longer the same as before. The main point is that I got the inspiration to write this novel by reading the novel “Reincarnation of The Strongest Sword God”. So, you may find some minor similarities but, well the story is completely different and the ideas are mine. So, enjoy reading my novel. This novel is also available on Webnovel under the same name. The updates on the novel are a bit faster there.
