Tyrant 115 Apocalypse Part 2

The first generation races were excluded as they belonged to the G.o.ds of Creation and they were foreigners to the land but it was a different story with the second and the third and the fourth generation and so on and so forth, they were Elysians. The story of how with every evolution an Elysian was breaking the chains of mortality and traveling a path towards divinity was part true.

They were breaking the bonds but not towards divinity, they were breaking their bonds to their mother Elysian. The Evolution was the way for Elysians to take away the wrapping mama Elysian gave his children as protection and expose their yummy center to the G.o.ds they followed.

This was the reason Elysians had free will, as long as they were in the realm. It was also why Gilgamesh was able to avoid the claws of Louxx and stay in the realm for so long but as fate would have it he was found by Elune and taken to an altar where Louxx had access to his prey.

Louxx was very happy with Elune as she brought her vast amounts of Elysian Spirit in a silver platter. The moment she consumed it, the Witch Doctor lost all the energy and became Level 1.

It was the reason why the G.o.ds of Creation had so much invested in the Realm and why all of them were fighting for supremacy, being the one and only deity of the realm meant that all the Spirit inside their natives was his/hers to take until to increased their powers. The size of the Elysian Realm was huge and the best part was that it was discovered in his infant state, the races and creatures created by the realm were not developed at all and their levels were extremely low, so when the races made by the G.o.ds came to be, they were not extinguish immediately like it had happened in many realms before.

Rahz first Bloodl.u.s.t ( Blood for Blood) was his potential being unlock and that was the reason why it was way more powerful than the one copied by the G.o.ds and given to their followers. Rahz bloodl.u.s.t was the true manifestation of Rage to manipulate the energy of the realm. The six sense he experienced was mother earth's reward for discovering the real Law. The skills were use with more efficiency because under the effects of bloodl.u.s.t he was using the true version of a skill approved by the realm. Lord Darick touched on this concept and many people had bits an pieces when they said that theoretically a person could use any skill from any path and that all originated from Runic Energy or in other words from Elysian Energy.

Rahz insight about his Skill Bloodl.u.s.t was not as in depth as discovering the why, he only had a hunch that the skill was unrelated to any of the G.o.ds of Creation. It stemmed from his desired to be the strongest in the realm and even stronger than Fadall.

Thanks to the Hidden Room Test he finally felt it, What mother Elysian tried to tell him when he was a 5 year old kid following the laws of his tribe, "You don't need them, the one called G.o.ds".

It was an Epiphany like none other, he Discovered that he had a skill a G.o.d didn't grant and thanks to the experience and knowledge his adventures granted him in the real world, he continued Apocalypse's test and started experimenting the use of skills without a.s.sistance of the G.o.ds on the different events especially against the bear until he finally managed to use Chaos Fire without his first evolution.

Success!!!

The Bear died getting melted by red fire and the scene change to the h.e.l.lgahvall War. Rahz once again was in his Bloodl.u.s.t state and he started using all the skills he knew until level 19 without the need of runes and was able to buy his mother precious time so that she managed to kill the bandits one by one saving the situation.

The fight against Lord Darick was a lot tougher as he was still learning the Elysian way to use energy but Rahz still managed to attack none stop, using Pulverizing Wave to delay Darick enough to solve the situation.

"Is it the power of my Imagination" thought Rahz

The idea seem feasible since using Pulverizing Wave over and over was against the rules of his cla.s.s but the idea was dispelled during the last scene as no matter how much he imagined it he could not beat Xyra with his level.

Rahz frustration was at his peak, he was tired of seeing his friend become somebody's meal

I need more Power…

I need more Strength… Strength as big as Fadall's..no no I want a power that can defeat Fadall..

Whoever you are, I promise to not let you down so please help me stop her from hurting Ridd.i.c.k.

Surprisingly enough a voice answered back but what he said made Rahz eyes show confusion. A child's voice giggle and said "If you really want to be the strongest the price to pay is your everything".

The loop had repeated a thousand times before and he had no solution on how to defeat Xyra but he would not give up on Ridd.i.c.k even if it was just a dream, Ridd.i.c.k was his brother and every time he died, the pain he felt was real in his mind. Rahz was running out of options and as he bit his lips said " OK I would give you my everything, whatever it takes"

"Then show me… I want your Rune of the Awakened.. Cut it off and toss it". Rahz showed some fear but he meant what he said, so he took the knife forged by his father and cut into his right pectoral muscle around the rune before using his knife as a lever to raise the piece of skin but it was extremely heavy it was like trying to pull out the roots of a tree.

Rahz was dumbfounded but he was now more determined than before so he took the knife with both hands and try to push the skin outward with all his might. The skin started to lift as Rahz screamed and went red in the face, underneath the skin there was a huge tentacle attached to something trying to hold on and not letting go.

"What the f.u.c.k is that?" Rahz was not a potty mouth but n.o.body that saw a tentacle refusing to come out of his body would maintained their cool. Rahz continued to use all his strength and finally the chunk of meat with a huge tentacle flew through the air and fell on the ground. Before it could move, the Holographic Axe that he grabbed to start the test felt from the sky and split the tentacle in half before destroying with energy.

Rahz strength started to fade and all the changes generated through the leveling since his awakened ceremony went away and he was a very thin barbarian once more but this changes didn't call his attention as much as everything that had happened so far. He had a million questions and right now there was a kid smiling at him and saying "Truly remarkable Rahz, I have waited millions of years for somebody like you"

"I am way weaker than before, how am I suppose to save Rididck"

The child opened his arms and the armor in his body change shape and he took the shape of a 2h Weapon "Just swing me against her"

"Sigh… this have to be a dream, I think Jazz and Giant Blade put something in my drink, I am probably in my room sleeping my a.s.s off".

Rahz took the axe and swung half heartedly towards Xyra like it didn't matter anymore, he thought he was going to get a vast amount of energy that would make him experience the might of a 4th evolution but instead it was outside a.s.sistance. Rahz sighed again as he thought about the whole test and the uneventful ending and was static that it was all over once and for all, he wanted to take a nap.

After chopping Xyra, the axe became a child once more and said, "Pull out your arm". Rahz did as told, pa.s.s or fail he was going to wake up and all that he saw would fade into a memory.

The kid use his hand and made a cut on Rahz's wrist and then opened his mouth that for some reason double in size and started to suck his blood like a vacuum. Rahz felt his blood and something more left him but didn't do anything, just when about a third was gone he felt dizzy and his consciousness started to fade.
