《Omen Philosophy (Web Novel)》Chapter 27 - Best Kept Secret
Advertisement
Crawling in the very fabric of darkness, Nocturne stealthily moved forward like a ghost. His stealth was at such a level that disappearing in the daylight would be tedious. Behind him, the nameless noble vampires, and high-ranking members of the Mallory family.
4 enemies up ahead. Nocturne message via telepathy, a skill he learned in the process of becoming a master warrior. Requires no expenditure in AP or MP.
The Thieves Guildmaster stealthily moved forward and wielded the giant, Bind Saber. The length of the greatsword is described to be as tall as a full-grown man taking shape like a butcher knife. There is a cutout of a crescent moon close to the top.
Name: Bind Saber Grade: Legendary -National Treasure of a destroyed country by The Undead, Lich, Deluc. He sent hordes of high-tier undead to destroy the hero’s kingdom for plunging Bind Saber into Deluc’s Blood Orb. -Has absorbed the nature of the Blood Orb and can employ Blood Skills and Blood Magic.
With two hands, he readied his attack that required finesse so Nocturne executed an attack like a baseball swing. In one smooth movement, the head of the vampires began to fall in less than 5 seconds.
Looks like our eldest brother is beyond our reach now. Both a Mystic Warrior and a Master Thief are something to boast about. Delvin Mallory messaged the entire team.
You always talked a lot Ol’ Delvin. Save it until after the mission. Nocturne replied. The Bludhaven Castle was created by the lesser vampires of the family. Finally. Sweep the area and allow no entry into the Vampire Lord’s Chamber. They had reached the interior wing of the giant castle where Demon Lord Silphy lays her head.
Like the wind passing into the castle through open windows, the team scoured each room. The nameless noble vampire who has the title, Daywalker, is standing guard of the Demon Lord’s chamber.
Before officially beginning the mission, Nocturne had thoughts of how to do it. If it was Gerald’s way, they would go through the front and cause a ruckus. No, this time, Nocturne intends to do this completely silent. Still, to inflict a sneak attack on a Demon Lord is an extremely difficult thing to do.
Thanks to Veda’s intelligence of the country, Lindblum, Nocturne had deduced a plan in which to infiltrate such a place infested with blood-sucking creatures of the night. A place no ordinary person would delve into. Yet, Nocturne wanted to sneak in an attack that would kill a Vampire in one instance.
When the Demon Lord came into view, Nocturne saw Demon Lord Silphy resting in an old, elegant casket. There she is. Veda, scan her data if you don’t mind.
An excellent order. Analyzing… Demon Lord Silphy… Vampire Lord. A window popped up detailing the attributes of the enemy.
Demon Lord Silphy Lvl. 89
Class: Transcendence Realm
7th Class Archmage
Species: Vampire Lord
Demon Lord
Main Job: Blood Berserker
Sub job: Blood Sword Saint

Titles: Dark Lord
Night King/King of Night
Bloody Sword Saint
Out of the 3 Demon Lords under the rule of Baal, Vampire Lord Silphy is the strongest. So, to think of fatally killing a character like this in one stroke is almost impossible. Though, such things were not beneath the level of someone like Nocturne, head of the family of world-class thieves, 6th Demonic Master, Demon Lord Slayer, and Virtu’s Guildmaster. Therefore, he brandished the sacred dagger bequeathed to him by the Lord Vicegerent.

Name: Kris Naga Grade: Legendary -Known as the most beautiful dagger in the world wielded by masters of skill and finesse. Only Master Thieves can equip this weapon. -Always inflicts critical hits. -Inflicts instant death to vampires. -Brings the user great fortune.
It was a dagger he got after conquering the Daywalker’s Dungeon. To think that a weapon that is the bane to vampires would be in their treasury was a delightful surprise. It was gifted to him by Lord Vicegerent for his contribution to the conquering of Hollow World. Next, it was the dagger he got after returning to his family.
Name: Fortuna Grade: Legendary Relic -A relic of the Mallory family. Passed down from one family head to another, it was the weapon that brought fortune to the Mallory family for centuries. -Always inflicts critical hits. Nightingale’s Profit - Greatly increases the chance of finding precious gems or lost hidden treasure.
Truly, a bewitching knife with an elegant rose-motif hilt, yet sharp enough to slice flesh, hide, or scale with the greatest of ease. It would be with Kris Naga and Fortuna that would end the life of the Demon Lord.
Readying his stance, Nocturne prepared a couple of things. First, he applied the Mallory family’s signature poison on his weapon and silently activated Aura. Thankfully, the Arcane Skill he learned in the Blood and Ebony Tower, Quiet Casting, enables all spells to be silent when cast, including Aura. The last thing he did before attacking was cast the Invisible spell.
Everythings prepared. Nocturne placed both his daggers in an “X” style execution form and poured all his power in one single attack.
Ultimate Techniques: [Skill - Mallory Finesse Handling/Manipulation] Absolution - An ultimate technique developed to kill sleeping Dragons. -Absorbs HP. -Always inflicts critical hits. -Inflicts instant death. Rank: EX Proficiency: 112
What should have been an outpour of monstrous energy was really a quiet night with a cold breeze, yet, the level of stealth that Nocturne can employ spoke volumes of his talent and skill. With the power to kill Dragons in one shot, the ultimate skill was executed.
Critical!
900672!
897105!
Overkill!
No wonder Nocturne felt no pressure from killing a Vampire Lord in one stroke. He had an Ultimate Technique that was strong enough to kill even Dragons. So, for a Demon Lord and a Vampire Lord who doesn’t fall short, it was the perfect move to deploy. Still, no sound was emitted as Demon Lord Silphy was sent to the nether realm without knowing what happened.
Mission Complete! Congratulations! Demon Lord Silphy has been slain!

The news about the Demon Lords subjected to Demon Lord Baal had scoured most of the world. Such news was released much faster than Dario had thought. Now that the existence of the Omen Sect was known, the element of surprise was a card they could no longer use.
It took less than a month to eradicate the Demon Lords and their armies. Now, Carugonia, Orkis, Ryoku, and Lindblum belong to the Omen Sect. With Carugonia being fully consolidated by setting up The Grand Castle in Obviam Deis as a Magic Tower, once the connection was established with other existing towers made that territory fully under the Omen Sect’s control. The same was said with Orkis, Ryoku, and Lindblum, as Dario sent his undead to secure the area. As of now, more than 25% of the Omen Sect’s stolen territory has successfully returned to its rightful owners.

This brings us to the continent of Serdio, where a long-standing war is currently under a cease-fire agreement. Half a century ago, there was a royal dispute over the ascension to the throne by the late King of Serdio’s brother, Doel who had split the continent in two and proclaimed his half as the Imperial Ranpossa and Kazas as the capital. It had happened at the height of the Omen Campaign.
This is where the Dark Elves of the Omen Sect comes in. During the reign of Lord Vicegerent Gloriano, King Thranduil of the Dark Elves was entrusted with the sacred duty of protecting the chosen successor to the continent of Serdio. When the time came, a human from the Serdio Continent will be under the wing of the Shadow King, one of the few beings who have walked the earth for thousands of years.

His task was to teach the young human boy, Prince Albion of the Serdio Continent the ways of a King. The Dark Elves were in seclusion at the same time after the disappearance of the previous Vicegerent, making them one of the original members of the Omen Nation spanning 10,000 years ago. Patient and graceful, they waited no longer. They were called back to the Omen Sect and heed the call of Lord Vicegerent. Finally, King Thranduil and the Dark Elves would end their sacred duty.
Located at Mount Tian inside of the War Room were the highest-ranking, and frankly, a few of the most powerful beings currently on the planet. In a marbled room is where the meeting of how the Serdio Continent would be reclaimed. “Your Graces, the Night Army will sweep this region. When the momentum shifts to the side of Prince Albion, he will charge to the Duchy of Basilisk with the Ten Royal Lancers and my brother, Glenn Courtwell.” Eyes shifting to see the Lord Disciple’s younger brother, what appeared was the face of a tanned young man with silver hair, a tattooed face reminiscent of Dario’s tattoo, and platinum eyes. The Omen Sect’s best-kept secret was about to enter the world.

“Your Graces, I would like to introduce the Leader of the Night Army, Grandmaster, Archmagus, Lord Apprentice, Glenn Courtwell,” the hologram Dario said. “He speaks with my Master’s voice. A command from him is a command from the Lord Vicegerent himself.”
Understanding the new figure entering the fold of the Night Army, shocked some people in the room of the unknown existence of Dario’s younger brother. Truthfully, when Jinn first entered the debased village of the Omen Nation, Glenn had caught the eye of The Angel of Death. In the grey hues of Jinn’s eyes, he saw sickness, a sort of disease that sucks a person’s life energy, Taeyang-Jichae. Symptoms of such a condition make a person permanently with 0 MP. Even though breathing methods and cultivating chi techniques would eventually be drained back to 0. However, the knowledge and technology within Jinn’s possession have a few solutions to such an evasive terminal illness. A classic sign of a person who has been afflicted with Taeyang-Jichae dies before reaching puberty, making it a terminal illness that is hard to identify.
At the time, Jinn had already made up his mind about what he intended for Dario’s younger brother, to make Glenn as the Lord Vicegerent’s apprentice. This brings us back to how Glenn was cured. Jinn had bequeathed his apprentice with Quantum Nanomachines. The technology back on Earth has progressed to the point of creating nanomachines, it was only recently that Jinn himself evolved nanotechnology to the Quantum Realm.
“Your Majesty, King Albion, this is your land, how do you wish to proceed?” Asked the young apprentice.
“I believe when we reclaim Fortress City, Gaspless, Jade Dragon Mountain, and Imperial Academy, Duplieren, is when we can strike the Imperial Captial,” said King Albion.
“How long was the duration of the Civil War?” Replied Glenn.
“Depends on the strength of our forces and the strategy to take down Emperor Doel.”
The conversation for strategy was about to begin, but, was interrupted with a voice that they could not resist. It was the Lord Vicegerent. Glenn knelt at the sight of his Master, “Lord of the Seven Heavens,” said Glenn.
“My apprentice, rise.” Glenn acquiesced. “Your Graces,” Jinn was addressing King Thranduil and King Albion. “The night is long at the right season and short in another, at this time, it is the former. Your Majesty, this is how a king plots his way to an easy victory.”
At the end of those words, Jinn divulged his strategy to take down Emperor Doel and his compatriots in a series of dominoes falling.

Courier
Zoe Blanco moved to New York after fleeing the small town she grew up in and the Purity Church that controls it. The Church believes in keeping humanity pure. This means none of the NanoPCs known as Frames or any other cybernetics that most of the rest of the world uses and enjoys everyday. Upon arriving in the Big Apple, Zoe is picked up by her cousin and witnesses a courier weaving their motorcycle through traffic. Zoe envies the courier's freedom. Couriers transport data and on occasion small objects for anyone willing to pay the price. Secured delivery is guaranteed and no questions are asked. Like having a human servant in this corporate owned world, using couriers is seen as a status symbol for the wealthy and corporate elite. New York's criminal underground uses couriers for similar reasons. This gives the hundreds of couriers in NYC steady work. After weeks of not finding a job while living with her aunt and cousin, Zoe turns to her slicing skills to steal credits from the Purity Church and turns to the mob so she can get a loan to pay for the internal secure storage space a courier needs and a frame for herself. After making an unlicensed run or two, Zoe finds employment with a transport company and truly starts her life as a courier. This story is a mix of light scifi, cyberpunk, slice of life, a dash of action, and a smidge of fantasy. Slicing is what hacking is called in this story. Credits are currency in this story.

MY FAKE DUNGEON
Giant doors suddenly appeared all over the world. Alex knowing the truth, now has to wander beyond the doors to save his world. But he realized he alone wasn't enough so he sought help from the others, of which he called them... Players.. _______ A heads up, I'm sure you'd be able to infer from the synopsis, this is something like a dungeon owner mc but I just like to say that there is no heavy litrpg to this even thought the mc calls them players. No system (except for mc?) and no level up like that. Just mc trying to use people for his own good. If I had to describe this novel in three words it be, guns, despair, and monsters. WARNING: I'm a complete amateur at writing and my English sucks so.. yahh.. I will post these on other sites such as webnovel and scribblehub as well.

Poems
While in English exists only one word for it, the ancient Greeks with their aim for self-understanding and knowledge found eight different varieties of love that we might all experience at some point:1. Eros (Erotic love) - represents the idea of sexual passion and desire;2. Philia (Affectionate love) - friendship, love between equals;3. Storge (Familial love) - love between close family members;4. Ludus (Playful love) - the early stages of falling in love;5. Mania (Obsessive love) - an imbalance between eros and ludus;6. Pragma (Enduring love) - love that has matured and developed over time;7. Philautia (Self love) - self-love in its healthiest form;8. Agape (Selfless love) - the highest and most radical type of love.(Unless stated otherwise, everything except the art belongs to me.)

Kidnapped by the Alpha
This is back up! I never got around to editing it because I didn't have the time like I thought I would. Enjoy this and the sequel.Isabelle was jolted awake out of her nightmare quite suddenly. Dazed, she tried to look around but found that her head was held firmly to the pillow under her. Cloth covered her mouth and nose, a sickly sweet smell enveloping her senses. Her mind began getting hazy. Chloroform, her mind whispered almost silently. Her vision began tunneling, and she weakly looked up into a pair of icy blue eyes. She stared into those eyes as she was pulled deeply and forcefully into oblivion. Isabelle is a smart girl and not really the girly type unless going out. You would usually see her wearing sweats around the house or outside in her backyard on the beach since she lives on the ocean. So when she suddenly gets kidnapped one day, she wonders what she had ever done to deserve this. She hadn't done anything wrong, at least she didn't think she did. But she learns that there is something about her that is special and that she is not only human. Meet Jared Gray, the person that kidnapped Isabelle because of her being his mate. He's been waiting since he was 16 to find his mate and now he's 22, about to give up on ever finding his mate. But when he smells her in a mall one day, he follows her home and decides to take what's his. Isabelle's life will never be the same again. Will she be able to escape or will she fall in love with her hot and charming kidnapper that she wants nothing to do with? Or will she stay with him and eventually fall in love? --- THIS IS A DRAFT. And I was 15 when I first started writing it so there are many mistakes. Please don't judge too harshly. WARNING: CONTAINS SOME SCENES OF SEXUAL AND MATURE CONTENTALSO, MANY MISTAKES! SOME THINGS I'VE WRITTEN I FORGOT TO PUT BACK IN THE STORY SO THIS NEEDS TO BE HEAVILY EDITED. Sequel is called Unwinding Fate
