"He's alive! he alive, he's alive..............
Fucking hell can he just pause for a minute
I mean I know this weird naked man was really happy to see me alive
by his dancing and singing
But
It was damm near impossible to think with his loud voice ringing in my head
Much less hear what the fuck Pollux was yapping about
I thought by now I should have gained some sort of immunity toward these weird, crazy and scary situations
But this occasion was way out of my league
I was getting a migraine just by thinking about it
The first thing that boggled me that
I was here for a whole fucking month
I mean nobody thought I haven't seen David for some time where is he
Nobody thought of coming to check on me
And all that shit me nearly dying the, lake me and the other shit happened
Over a time period of a month
Fuck me!
Either my time perception is fucked or something else is going on
The second thing was the fucking naked man dancing and singing Al around Pollux
" he's alive, he's alive....................
Seemingly the man was invisible
Because the 8-foot giant bodybuilder of a man just walked through the naked man
And now he can't the naked man dancing circles around him
Holy fuck he's huge
I mean I have seen tall before obviously
My own past life father was a really tall man
But nothing can be compared to the well-toned musclehead of a titan standing in front of me
I came up only to his stomach
"What is wrong with you?" Pollux barked at me
Loud enough to surpass the loud signing
"Nothing just a headache" I answered rubbing my temples
He snorted and turned around and left me all alone once again
Well not really
The fucking naked man was still dancing and singing all around me now
That dammed singing was getting on my last nerve
I tried to calm myself by taking in deep breaths
but that singing was growing louder and louder
Anger came over me and I snapped
I shouted at the naked man
" SHUT THE FUCK UP!!!!! "
The tall man instead of shouting up and staying quiet
Like I expected him to do
Started to laugh merrily
"I can be seen and heard!" He declared as if the man had just won a million dollars in the lottery
And he began to dance and sing again
The anger turned into rage
And it felt good to be angry
I pounced on the man with speed and ferocity I had never displayed before
I cover 10 meters in a blink of an eye
The man stopped and smiled at me
And he spread his hands as if "go-ahead do your worse"
I soon a reached him grabbed his throat with one hand
Pinning him against the wall
I got real close to his face and whispered
"Your singing is pissing me off so would you please kindly shut the fuck up"
The man kept struggling against my grip
"Okay," I asked tightening my chokehold on his throat
"Yes, yes, yes" the naked man shouted sounding panicked
"Good"
I let go of him
But the man didn't drop to his knees wearing and shot trying to catch his breath
No, he just stood there looking at me in complete horror
My rage was still there
I wanted to bash this man's head in the wall

This shocked me and I tried to get that anger in control
The naked decide to help me by giving shock treatment
"You can touch me," the man said
At first, I was confused then hit me
Pollux just went through this man just a few seconds ago
I looked back at the man in shock
The man stood up straight and gave a smile
He got closer to me "You can touch me" The world was numb. My mind just wanted to switch off This was just too much information My body was still fresh, sharp as a tack from all the cool energy I was feeling run through my body I was about to punch the man Jump up and flee from this place When suddenly The guy slowly began stroking my hair with his palm When did this dude get this close to me My senses were sharper than ever I could hear his breath I felt his breath on my ear It was gross, But I didn't feel anything when his palm touched my skin I wanted to run away Even without this guy, I would have been pretty nervous With this creepy room filled with non-human and human bones and sick and disturbed relics It was dirty, But with this guy saying he was dead and Pollux walking through him I was pretty sure he was dead I was able to touch this dead guy Bot just touch him but also hurt him I felt a wave of nausea and dizziness I wanted to leave I wanted to go to my cell-like room and have a nice long sleep So that I could figure what the fuck was going on I turned around to look for the exit there was the door Pollux went through But the naked man had come in between mean and the door I wanted to go through him but for some reason, I didn't feel like hurting the guy I looked closely at the man he was no tall he was no 8-foot titan But he was still respectable 6 foot plus he was bald Not just that there wasn't a single speck of hair anywhere in his body Even down there with his 4-inch pecker, he was spotless He had no muscle to speak of He was extremely thin that I could see his rib bones "Can you move aside I would like to leave?" I asked the man politely The man shook his head practically Okay, screw this I will punch my way out Wow, wow what is wrong with me I wasn't the best person in the world but in no way was I short-tempered I once again looked at the man he was rattling his head like a dog trying to get shake something of I tried once again "Hey there look I need to leave so that I can get some rest" The man started to shake his head even more frantically I tried to stay calm and keep the anger down which starting scare me a little "Why not?" "The priest is still near," he said waving his hand " he is watching " Okay now I was listening "Who is watching?" I asked "The priest, the priest is watching" "What priest?" I asked, "who is this priest?" "The priest is watching he is still watching" Okay that made no sense "You must act blind" he shouted Okay that got my attention If the bald naked man told me to act blind You better believe I was going act blind I had been living long enough in this world long enough to know that what is this meant Was somebody is going on me to act dumb So I did I sat down cross-legged and started to meditate I began the visualization technique but before I could enter the lake I noticed that I could still see the world around me I even had the 360° vision I noticed the there was white coloured waves like lines floating all around me I had read that these were pure spirit energy waves that cultivator can feel and absorb Now I could feel them this meant I could start to cultivate I also noticed dust particles floating around but instead of the normal colour there were in all colours red, blue white yellow you name it was there Now this I didn't know about But among these particles, I felt and saw a five coloured dust particle That instinctively I wanted to absorb With pure instinct, I drew the partial into me and absorbed I felt my body wash with energy I could finally cultivate ......…............................................... Outside the stone room where David was supposed to be practising Edward and another man were standing there in a dark corner Staring intently into the air in front of them their eyes unfocused Suddenly the pair's eyes came into focus, Edward immediately moved to the side into the light and bowed his head The other man also moved and came out of the dark and into the light The man was wearing a tattered and torn dirty white robe His mouth was open in a rictus of a smile His skin was pale and clammy He had eye bags that were now black His breath turned to mist every time he exhaled His eyes were red His eyes were so red that they could have been purple The man had his jet black hair tied up in a bun atop his head In his right hand, he held a strange-looking green staff with a white crystal ball And with his left hand, he was stroking his thick black beard Abruptly He turned to a corner His smile grew wider He kneeled down on the floor "Excellent" he shouted his voicing sounding as if two people were speaking at once from the same mouth The man bent down A cat came out of the shadows toward the kneeling man The man picked up the cat in his embrace The cat began to purr loudly as the man scratches it's head The man bowed toward Edward and whispered "He's a friend of ours" Edward raised his head and looked at the cat Edward shuddered The cat was mostly white with its back covered with a red and black coat It had no eyes "He is called Darkfang," the man said to Edward "There no other like him" Edward was visibly uncomfortable His eyes were wildly moving around as if looking for an escape Just then Pollux came out of the stone room Seeing Pollux Edward was relived and he moved toward him in flash Pollux ignored Edward and turned to the man stroking the cat "So, what is your verdict?" The man's smile grew wider The man bowed toward Pollux, but in a way that made him look like a predatory cat. "We have seen the apostle Pollux" Pollux dismissed the wave of his hand "Disperse with formalities Priest, " "Just tell me what you think?" The Priest raised himself up and gave Pollux a feral smile "The boy is perfect," the priest said "He is a little too weak now, but he will grow stronger in time" The Priest knelt and put down the cat who walked into the shadows and disappeared "Our suggestion would be to put the boy in the mines with the slaves" Pollux nodded in approval "A fair and fine suggestion I will make it happen" Seeing that the conversation coming to an end Edward hurriedly came over and fake coughed Pollux looked at him irritated But Edward wasn't scared He raised his thumb and pointed it backside Understanding flashed in Pollux's eyes He turned toward the priest who was whispering to himself "Are your preparation done?" Pollux asked "Can we take on the Red star sect," The Priest shook his head "We alone are not enough" "We need help" "You should summon Yasmin" he continued "She can help us" "She will be on our side, just like we are" The man stroked his beard and grinned Pollux and Edward both were stunned Edward began to shudder uncontrollably But Pollux regained his cool quickly Pollux carefully looked at the Priest for a second Then he nodded "I will take your opinion to the council of brothers and then make a decision later" "How long will that take?" Asked the Priest "Not long, I promise you" Pollux answered The first nodded His right hand made a patter in the air His shadow on the wall split into two and wrapped around him like two snakes were devouring him. As soon as The Priest we're gone Edward pointed at Pollux and shouted "Have you gone mad?" "One of him was bad enough now we have to summon another?" Edward was so mad tag his face had gone red And he was panting heavily "How much will we have to sacrifice?" Pollux turned toward the panicking Edward Pollux didn't speak He just brought his hand together like he was about to pray As soon as the hand touched A white hallow sprouted behind him and engulfed him It was so bright that it lit up the room chasing the shadows away Pollux created such a strong pressure that Edward was forced to his knees "Are you questioning me?" Pollux asked as he approached Edward "No!" Edward said with great difficulty "Good, because you of all people should know what happens to those who do question me" The hallow behind around pollux vanished as if it was never there, to begin with Pollux mockingly looked at the struggling Edward He abruptly grabbed Edward by his head hair and raised him Up and brought him very close to his face "You remember brother Sam don't you?" He asked Edward tried to nod his Soon he realised that wasn't possible So instead he shouted "Yes, I do?" Pollux let go of Edward's hair Causing Edward to fall on the ground face first "Good, now go call the rest of our brothers" Pollux turned around "We have a summoning to do" With that went back into the stone room where David was meditating

System Prime
The legend of System Prime is one that has been told and retold many times over the eons. About how she, along with her trusted partner, travelled the worlds of Ahunna (a.hoon.a), sharing the [Gift of System] to all who needed it. It is a great story. Somewhat factual too. As long as you overlook the fact that System Prime was never a woman. —— If this story seems familiar to you, then congratulations, you're psychic. Well, that or you've read it before on my old account, Eli8iR, which I had to delete because of a probably silly reason that will need a shitton of weed to make me spill. If you don't recognize this story, then unfortunately you're not psychic. On the bright side though, it has been scientifically proven that reading my stories might make you psychic. Or blind. But that only happened twice, and those guys should not have badmouthed my work. Enjoy.
