Mia's reluctant agreement made Huntress smile. She knew this was the first time Mia was going to experience the attack of a monster or a mutated beast. An enemy who was hell-bent on killing you can generate a horde of reactions from the host.
" The training will begin at the earliest hour of tomorrow. Until then, let us help you get acquainted with this place."
Huntress led Mia into her room. It was a spacious room with a huge space and decorated interiors. Everything was extremely tidy and prepared for Mia's arrival. It was as if someone was taking care of it.
"It is good to see you again so on mistress." A voice sounded from behind. Mia turned around with alertness, just to see a woman standing in a maid's clothes.
"No need to be aggressive. This is Uma. caretaker of the facility. She is also a top research assistant with her own research lab. She will be taking care of all your needs." Huntress then turned to Uma and said.
"This is her daug
Hope you loved the chapter. Stay with me throughout the whole journey and support the novel. Thank you.
"Do you understand what she did wrong?" Uma asked. Mia remained speechless at the scene. "I am asking you," Uma said looking at Mia, which seemed to have jolted Mia out of her trance. "What." She said. "I asked if you understood what her fault was during our fight," Uma said. "She seems to have perceived your attack in the wrong way," Mia replied. "But she reacted according to the book," Uma said. "I didn't say she reacted in the wrong way. I said she perceived it the wrong way. She was way too confident that you would be using the newly acquired blindspot to attack, which led to her concentrating on the left side and acting accordingly. You laid the bait and she took it." Uma looked at Mia and smiled. She then turned around to look at Huntress, who was still lying on the floor. "This one is teachable." To Mia's surprise, Huntress got up without any problem. She wasn't even injured. " Didn't I tell you? Her mother and I
Mia got up and followed Uma's instructions for the whole day. She was bashed into the grounds many times. Mia lost the counting after the tenth time. Uma was also merciless in her attacks. Mia managed to pass the first few rounds, but as time went by concentrating became harder and harder."You need to keep your calm and learn to manage your senses properly. You are way too confident in your pitiful talent and are not working properly. I honestly doubt your fucking dedication to this job." Uma began to curse at Mia.Mia lost her cool and broke her stance in an attempt to attack Uma suddenly. To her surprise though, in the next moment, her view of the world had turned upside down, as her body crashed into the ground one more time.Mia clutched her fist, trying to push her body up. She looked at an emotionless Uma and said. " Never question my dedication. I work harder than anyone else in my surroundings to achieve my goals."For the first time throug
The world, since the beginning, has always been a playground for the strong. Since the start of the dawn, humans compete with each other to exceed their own limits and surpass others. The ones who pass through the hurdles, and come to the top of this vicious cycle, are the ones termed as strong. Some philosophers often like to coin the terms "Survival of the fittest", "Only the strong can make the rules" or "Winner takes it all". If you were weak, the flow of time would inevitably consume you, plunging your very being into the sea of a forgotten dark abyss. Since time immemorial, people desired to control their own fate, be independent and follow their own minds. But society as a whole couldn't function like that, or rather, the strong didn't want the world to continue in its own chaotic flow. Rules were set up, some beneficial and some detrimental, all to appease the ideals of those who stand at the top. Society was finally being formed, and those docile wea
The world went through a disaster and managed to emerge from the chaos of destruction. In the process, every nook and cranny underwent a drastic change. Normal people's lives were affected the most out of it. "The reason why we say that normal people live underwent the most drastic change was that a new definition of normal has emerged in this world. The topography is in no way the same. The environment morphed itself to support all the new mutations brought by the emergence of this wormhole." Even the normal lifestyle was no longer recognizable. The biggest example is the discovery of special powers within people, which eventually led to a blend of power into normal social proceedings. A new gradation system began to emerge which ranked people based on this new power. The first hunter organization was set up by the then UN which is now laid in shambles. Countries decided to have their own hunter associations and find new hunters who will become the pillars t
"Your parents are no more." It was the statement that haunted my dreams for a long time. I don't remember what followed the revelation. All I could recall was my sister crying out loud and hugging me, covering my face with her body. It was as if she was trying to protect me from the evil effect this news would bring upon both of us. I couldn't hear even the loudest sound, as my face felt moist. It took me some time to realize that these were the tears leaking out of my eyes. My immature mind seemed unable to make any sense of the situation. I just hoped that it was a bad dream which would be gone when I wake up the next morning. My sister lifted me in her arms and helped me reach my room. She laid me down on the bed and covered me with sheets. I couldn't find a trace of any tears flowing through her eyes. It wasn't until sometime later that I managed to understand the reason behind them. She caressed my head and closed my eyes. She then stood up to leave my room, clo
"I have a request to make, sir," Mr. Han appealed to the man sitting in the central chair. Han was one of the most mysterious members of the organization. His strength was known to a small circle of people. The man was one of them."I would love to hear it, Mr. Han.""Mia is already on the verge of breaking through. Even if she did get ranked as a potential S-rank warrior, it would take a lot of time to get to that position. I hence request you to grant her access to all the cultivation resources that were collected by the Chang couples.""The resources naturally belong to her," Mr. Han said. I will make way for the transfer as soon as she passes the awakening ceremony. I give you my words that no matter what the results are, the resources will be given to her, along with all their gears and possessions left here in the guild." Many dull faces could be seen around the table.The Chang couple was one of the most accomplished hunters within the guild. Every
I was ten years old when I first started my training in physical arts. My sister was busy practicing for the upcoming ceremony and hence I would use most of my time to go through the manuals left in the library. Our parents were accomplished hunters and hence they did manage to collect a huge trove of art.In general, a hunter would have a certain amount of magical energy with the concentration being higher in some aspects of the body than the other. It soon led to the development of various paths on which the hunter could walk. An example was the huntress. Her magical energy was concentrated in her body and hence she chose the path of speed. Ultimately she became one of the top-tier assassins in the world.The rarest type of hunters were those with multiple abilities. Mia was such a type of hunter. She could wield dual body and mental abilities at the same time. On top of it, her magic concentration was SS-rank and hence she was classified as the highest tier hunter i
Mr. Han began to help David in his training. The first day could be described as the most treacherous experience of David's life. Mr. Han said the training regime he had to follow was personally devised by his father to train prospective recruits for the academy. The training regime started with fortification training.Unlike its name, the process was incredibly bloody. Mr. Han simply brought a specifically designed stick. "This is something created by the combined efforts of your father and me. We created it with a special element found within the gates. This is called Tedenite.""Among other properties that this magical element holds within, the most prominent is its energy-absorbing qualities. A huge amount of energy can directly be absorbed by this element, and it gets heavier by every single unit of energy.""What is it used for?" David couldn't help but be apprehensive about what this stick is used for.Mr. Han smiled and raised it. To David's surpr
