《Harmony: An Assassins Tale》Chapter 17: Sensei's Truth
Advertisement
After fighting with Diablo, I knew I had to protect Master. As so, I told Hazen to keep him in the barrier, and he himself was to get supplies (food , water , etc). Knowing Diablo, he would've killed Johnny the moment he got, but since I put the barrier, he would be protected for a while, as I know Diablo is smart enough not to mess with my barrier. I myself, left to find Diablo, and kill him, because he would cause even more problems then The Hybrid, because she hasn't gotten enough time to fully take in her power, but since she has the power of a Reaper, she would still be alive, but I do not want to spoil Hazen's and Johnny's happiness, so I kept it to myself. Hazen is most likely still thinking, about whether the last 5% is of Reaper blood, or of the Flugre, a species whose exact details are still not known, but still all that are known about Reaper's and Flugre's are there immortality, so Hazen probably doesn't want to spoil Johnny. I purposely put the spell on him a bit longer, so that he wouldn't remember about exactly, but sadly, Hazen is to kind, for his own good.
Anyways, I continued my search for Diablo, but still to no avail. I thought he may have gone back to the Reaper colony, but I thought that he wouldn't be stupid enough to go there at this time, because he still had a job, and being the Reaper Lord, his colony would despise him, for , to become the Lord, they must kill the current Lord, which would be Diablo. I've known him since he was every a babe, and me , him and Hazen used to be the best of friends. We were great friends, until our Master had left us. He told us everything about what was to happen, and when he will come back, so we have been following his wishes since. It is almost time to start phase 2 of his grand plan, and Hazen is training Johnny, just as necessary. I had a name, but I hated my name. I've kept my name a secret to all except Master, Hazen, and Diablo. I am still known to everyone , simply by 'Old Man' or 'Sensei' and I like it that way.
I looked around the entire planet, but I found no traces of Diablo, nor his human buddies, who we had recently converted. Although they are not pure reapers, nor pure hybrids, they can no longer be called human. They have the power of both beings, Human, giving them the power of using Soul Emifer's , and Reaper, giving the ability of Immortality and the killing technique.

So far, in this universe , 6 different races have been discovered, and the lords have only ventured 5 of the 9 universes. My secrets are known to no one, except me and Master, not even Diablo, nor Hazen, knows my true extent of power or reason. Since all Lords are special cases, which can use Soul Emifers, without being humans, they have been renowned amongst the 6 races. Gabriel Raphiel, the Angel Governer, who wields a Soul Emifer empowering his Holy fists and Holy wings. Me, The Human Lord, whos Soul Emifer, can not be explained, becasue I have yet to show it to anyone except Master, and it'll will be shown in due time. Then theres Raizel D. Diablo, The Reaper Lord, whos Soul Emifer is imbued into his Scythe, which gives his Scythe , Death Reaper, a renowned weapon, allowing him to show Humans the truth in seconds, making people follow him, without need of force. The Dragon Lord, RagNar-Ok, whose Location and SE are still unkown. The Flugre Queen, Trine, who, as well, is not known. and Finally , the Demon Lord, Whose Name and Location is Unknown. His true identity is still with me and Hazen, unknown to Diablo, because he didn't trust Diablo, because amongst the three of us, he is the strongest, and I , the weakest.
Yet still, I'm stronger than the both of them, because, like Johnny, I use my head, unlike those two, who charge in, without a care. That is why Diablo has Trinity and Michael, however Diablo took Michael, just because Trinity refused to go without him, yet Diablo is to dumb-witted to know the extent of Michael's power, another Hybrid, but has all 6 races, unlike Jennifer, with only 5. Michael however, has not matured yet , and so is weaker then her, but in due time, he will be able to rise above everyone, except Master, Master was to powerful.
I decided to look for Michael's signature, rather than those two, because the both of them can hide there signature. Michael's signature is a colorful one, having the ability of all 6 races, of course. "Well Damn, Hes In RagNar-Ok's domain, damnit." I said, to myself, and so I prepared the ritual for Universe transmission. I set up the magical circle, which , for going to the Dragon World was as followed.
You were to make a Circle, of radius 50 metres. After that, creat a perfect Hexagon inside it, then split the Hexagon into its respective 6 sides, all forming 120 degree angles. Then you look towards the Northern side of the Circle. To the Right of the Circle, form the Humans Symbol, A Man in a hood, then going clockwise, the Demon symbol, a Bone and Cross, with wings, then the Angel Symbol, which was either a Human Ascending, or a Human falling into hell, depending on destination, this was Ascending. Then, the Flugre Symbol, which was a tree with 2 leaves, the Reaper symbol, which was Death with a Scythe, and Finally, the Dragons Symbol, which was a drawing of RagNar-Mok, RagNar-Ok's Grandfather. After creating the circle, it was due time for the chant.

I had to wait for midnight to fall, then I had to say the chant, "Oh, RagNar, Let me ascend to your land, let me feel your home, let me feel your wrath , and your power, make me a stronger man, make me understand how you feel, Let Me Come To Your World!" In Dragon Tongue, Obviously. Yet Dragon's don't speak , like normal people. They communicate with symbols and with their ME, which can only be used by other Dragons. So, I had to write the symbols taught to me by Master, as he was a friend of RagNar, the first Dragon created by God. After writing down the chant, I simply had to draw blood in the middle of the circle, and then throw the chant unto the cirlce. It hit midnight and I started the ritual. I did as was necessary, and the portal opened. Before leaving, I thought once more about Master and his plans, "Yes , Master, I shall teach him about every being, and the mysterious 7th, known only to us two." and I went. Once I passed the portal, I instantly knew the consequence. "DAMNIT! I FORGOT! HOW COULD I FORGET!" and I got angry at myself. Magical power does not work through different dimensions, so that means the barrier is gone. Anyhows, I continued going, and followed Michael's trace.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"Just as you said, Diablo~Sama, he fell exactly for the trap. Although you went with Michael to RagNar-Ok (RNo)'s territory, as so, I, Trinity, will show Johnny my power. However Hazen will be a problem, so I'll make due with him. The first thing I shall do is ressurect Jennifer, she will be a powerful asset to you, Diablo." and I laughed. I knew Diablo well enough to know that the fight between Sensei and Diablo~Sama would be crazy enough to shake RNo's world, and he will most likely then bring about change to this world. Well, all I had was a simply enough job, to kill Johnny, and lead Hazen to you, as the both of them don't know eveything about Reapers. "This is all for you, Michael, don't forget our deal with Diablo, all will be fine , in due time." I said, to Michael.
Although we were in different worlds, I could feel his presence. He was scared, and wanted me to be by his side, but even still, I felt like he continued to think I was with him. Now it was my time to percieve my mission, and Diablo, to kill his foe. As so, I went to the cemetary, and looked for Jennifer Gratenheim's grave, and went to it. I then dug her grave, and took the coffin to our base in the making, and opened it. "Rise and Shine, Jenny, you have a job." and I plugged a chip into her neck, which made her find us superior, hence giving us control over her, without brainwashing her. "Ahhh, it feels so well to be out of that coffin, and to have my soul back with me. Trinity ~Sama, what should I do? Kill that Johnny? Or What?" and I hushed her. "For now, everyone thinks you are dead, so , I will continue building a certain room for you. In that room, I'll make it possible for you to train and master your 5 abilites. With that, you will be able to easily kill Johnny, without his cell reconstruction being a problem. Well, now I'm going to head out, so stay here, make yourself feel like home, I have a job to do, and you to, have a job. Goodbye, Jenny, the next time we see, it will be for training." and I went off, ready to spill some blood, not knowing , the extent of Hazen's power.

The Oresteia (Modernized)
All three of the great Greek Tragedians have written plays about the bloody chain of murder and revenge within the royal family of Argos. Yet theirs is in fact not a story of tragedy, but rather one of redemption. As they move from darkness to light, from rage to self-governance, from primitive ritual to civilized institution, their spirit of struggle and regeneration becomes an everlasting song of celebration to be heard throughout the ages. Forming a discourse set against the emergence of Athenian democracy out of a period of chaos and destruction, the Orestian plays are compelling stories of the tensions between our obligations to our families and the laws that bind us together as a society. In the beginning, we witness how a king’s decision to sacrifice his daughter and turn the tide of war inflicts lasting damage on his family, culminating in a terrible act of retribution. In the aftermath of regicide, we behold how a son must set out to avenge his father’s death by committing a most egregious sin. In the end, the sinner is tormented by supernatural powers that can never be appeased, but ultimately finds redemption and ends the curse on his house once and for all. Woven through all of this is the story of a friendship so close that it elevates itself to brotherhood - Where the blood of the covenant is shown to be indeed thicker than the water of the womb. In this very brief twelve-chapter modern rendition of the Orestian plays, I have chosen to place my focus mainly on the lives of the characters Orestes and his best friend Pylades. The chapters, each around 2000-2500 words, are split up evenly between them in first-person narrative. I hope that you will come to enjoy reading this heartwarming story, but more importantly, that you see how the conflicts portrayed in the story, whether human or institutional, are still much very relevant to our societies today. Note on Sources: The details of this story is very loosely based on The Oresteia by Aeschylus. And I mean very loosely. Other sources that I referenced for detail and inspiration are Mythology by Edith Hamilton, Electra by Sophocles, and Iphigenia in Tauris by Euripides. You may also find that I have quoted some of these works, and others (such as Shelley's Ozymondaeus), without citations (average of 1-2 such quotes per chapter). I did this because I do not have the ability to describe certain scenes nearly as well as some of those writers. If you read a particularly beautiful piece of prose here, chances are it's probably stolen lol. Also, I wrote this during the summer between my high school senior year and my college freshmen year. It was the summer of 2020, and being quarantined apparently gets my creative side out lol.

Directorate: Nationbuilding in Apocalypse
A nation is just a means of survival. Metro Manila fell within 5 months of the first report of cannibalism. Once a hyperurbanized region of 15 million inhabitants, it's been reduced to a dead, greenless shell. Most of the infected had since left to ravage the countryside. The central government was nowhere to be found. Among the survivors who clung to the few gardens and humble plots of arable land left, one of them finds evidence that the slaughter wasn't going to just end with the first wave. Without a nation and a wall of guns, everyone will die. Directorate is an original nationbuilding webnovel that focuses on the gradual rise to power of a select few individuals, and the subsequent unification of the survivors of a devastated Metro Manila. Releases targeted at every 1 to 3 weeks. If there are no chapter updates after 3 weeks, there will be a progress update. Number of releases targeted at a maximum of 100 chapters. Every 10-15 chapters, there will be a 1-month hiatus to let me plan for the next 10-15 chapters. Double releases have a not-insignificant-but-still-small chance of occurring. Original cover edited on GIMP. Destroyed city original photo "apocalypse" from Camila Rodrigues on Pixabay.
