The Scion

Ramiel gets overwhelmed with the ever-changing sound, from loud gunshots, to explosions and random voices shouting, screaming, talking all at once in different languages, and adding unknown creatures roaring and scenarios. The sounds were filled with chaos because the ever-changing noise was overwhelming his senses he fell down and roll screaming in pain, the sharp intense pain surging out of every part of his nerve feeling like his flesh was being torn apart, then stabbed, cut, worst of all a burn feeling on his skin, as is was thoroughgoing with stomach-turning, suffocation, paralyzing fear all at the same moment like all of the unimaginable pain that the human body has suffered in the past millennia of history in one split moment.

he continues to call out for help, but he was in so much pain within a void of darkness where he was trapped inside, he curled up in a fetus position and recites the poem that he remembers after that Ramiel look back on all of the remaining information in his memory and just move around doing the martial art position and movement and constantly do it over and over until the pain that he felt becomes tolerable, and thinking that if he was persistent he could be able to block those noise and suffering.

he was screaming his lungs out he dictate the action he was doing,

"The upper block is executed with the forearm and palm facing forward of the body, the fist must be both in front and above the head, and the elbow must also come up when executing the block.!!!"

" now allows the arm to rotate in the last part of the block adding to the efficiency of the motion. The forearm should be angled down so that any attack blocked will tend to slide off the blocking arm and away from the center!!"

Ramiel was still struggling The pain was like fire burning his legs, he fell on his knee as a sharp twisting pain crawled up to his spine to his head with a terrifying blankness. It was nauseating. he started to quiver. The pain felt like a hot, sharp knife, covered in salt was slicing through his flesh and into his muscles and bones, as though his leg had been frozen and a bolt of lightning had struck his shaking body from head to toe.

he screeches in agony, as he clenches his fist and pushes himself up once again to start over again, with all the energy he could muster he began to practice as he recites the word in his mind,

"The first is to ensure that the toes are not in a position to be damaged and the second is that this ensures that the ball of the foot is in its strongest position for the impact of the strike!!"

"With both the middle and upper kick the foot should rise upwards and into the body leading with the ball of the foot, another key thing is the knee lift!!" The height of the knee is directly related to the height of the final kick. This relies on both strength and flexibility,!!"

it felt like he was doing this for hours but the pain continues to ravage his body. he was about to lose consciousness something answered his cry for help but it was beyond what he could comprehend, whoever it was the voice was speaking mildly in a woman tone, the feeling of her voice was resonating into his non-physical body, a sensation that he could only remind him when his mother saw him for the first time after giving birth.

An intense need to experience those feelings again made him tremble with excitement and bliss, but at the same time he felt a sense of fear, and one of those feelings was that the voice was far too sad and suffering and didn't sound like his mother's voice., he could hear a weak trembling pitch from the person who was trying so hard to convince him otherwise saying that she was just trying to fulfil her long time dream.

Ramiel noticed that the noise was no longer there, the moment the person spoke to him it vanish, it made him at ease and more comfortable, it took him a while to recover, and questions slowly came to his attention as he was laying on his said, the voice once again ask if he was doing ok,

it took him a few seconds to respond, for he was too weak to speak his lips felt dry and he has no saliva to even wet his mouth.

the voice once again spoke and told him, if he was wondering why the sound and pain stop it was because he was now focusing on the issue at hand and that he was thinking about who she was, and even added that is just one of the questions in his mind if given a chance she could answer more of his inquiry.

and yes, she was not talking to him verbally but by communicating by thoughts or extrasensory perception, Ramiel was still not moving but was able to reply in his own way by humming.

after he felt like hours of rest, he was able to gain the needed information by analytically thinking about, Ramiel Thank her while in a Japanese sitting posture so he can still be respectable, assuming all possible factors that she might have the ability of Clairvoyance also, Ramiel was a bit hesitant and doubting the other person talking to him in the pitch of emptiness of nothing, after a few moments of deliberation on his part he asks if she has a name,

to her reply, he can call her Allatou and ask Ramiel if he would allow her to share her story to pass time until she convinces her that she means no harm, and like him, she too is condemned into this dark void waiting until the objects she truly desires will finally blossom into a beautiful and resilient flower. and it's a good way of cancelling those annoying sounds and stressful feelings.

Ramiel was still not sure about her, thinking that she might be just his personality that he unconsciously created to dampen and give a rational explanation for what was going on within his mind was he truly in a coma or trap in an alternate dimension or worst maybe even both,

Allatou explain that its normal to be suspicious toward a total stranger, but she told him to recall the moment he entered this space, he was all alone and nobody was with him, she further explains there is no evidence that time exists here, and that different sounds he hears are not happening at his world on the current timeframe,

all the sounds he could hear has a fifty-fifty chance to be aligned to his home world, but most of them are random scenarios in different timelines, his mind just perceives what he could process based on his imagination and reminiscence, and the human brain would automatically connect those sounds into a believable perceptible situation that he can bridge his own subconsciousness so he can have control and still hope for the better.

this made Ramiel feel sad, but she has a point, he can't physically see anything in this current state that was inclined to any human necessity like hunger and thirst, and the only thing that was giving him the information was the sound he could hear coming out of the void. and the pain associated with it.

Allatou said sorry for telling him this, and even ask if he was ok, Ramiel just said no worries back and said that he is a very rational person by birth. and knowing this makes him more confident in gaining some understanding of what was going on, he asked her again why can he see his naked body inside the void, and then he blushes knowing she might also see him.

Allatou laugh and told him the moment she heard his scream and called out for help she already saw him but he was still inside his own void bubble,

"huh? void bubble!"

Allatou was happy to explain to Ramiel everything, saying that the void is like a prison cell it is infinite, with no time, no physical location there is no up down left or right. each void bubble is connected but separate at the same time, Ramiel answers

ah! it's like a bee hive!

Allatou ask what was a bee hive, Ramiel laughed and just told her it was ok but she insisted that he could share the information about it because these things would make her happy, so before Ramiel would continue he formally introduce himself to her.

their conversation began as their topic slowly grew and tackled so many human social activities, from food, sports, culture, hobbies and even personal details about his own life, Ramiel heard was sniffing sound, he felt as if she was crying the moment he shared his sad story, he asks Allatou if she was doing ok, she answered him saying, she understands what his mother would feel after all the pain he had hard to face, she was a bit envious of his mother for having a son like him.

Ramiel wanted to change the topic so it wouldn't make Allatou feel bad,

so she asks about her instead, and he told Allatou it was time that she also shares certain things about her, Allatou told her about a well-known story from where she came from, and openly admits she is not human and asks him if he was fine about it. Ramiel said that nothing surprises him anymore, and then laugh Allatou also started to giggle hearing his rational understanding.

Allatou started her story, even before time ever existed a singular sentient formless, nameless, omnipotent, entity, became aware and formed a thought because time was Intangible it contemplated and develop the sense to gain something that was beyond it can construct with a single thought, it now wants to dwell in a certain aspect of tangible framework that became what we call now as Matter, seeing this minuscule speck of dust floating in a vast empty canvas the creator made the necessary building blocks of everything you can now touch, see and hear.

the moment these small non-living particles were forged the excess energy gave birth to chaos and divine energy, that was also molded based on the creator's influence, as time formed out of the accumulated sparks of energy from all of its creation seeing the creator's ever-expanding need to feed its curiosity at things that it already knew every known conceivable outcome it wanted to see if adding a shapeless, independent, and lastly, the sentient variable would it change the creators' sense of fulfilment.

thus psyche or in the human tongue a spirit was created, but because of the creation of chaos all of the spirits were bound with limitations and rules these entities were like their creator, all of them intangible, Allatou further shares that all living things beyond all realities were the

the consequence of the creators' amusement.

then with no logical reason the singular creator and ruler of everything, just stop. leaving the shapeless entities to be the representative of the one who started everything.

so after trillions of years, these sentient life forms were able to reconfigure the building block of life and were able to have a physical form sadly at the expense of extinguishing most of what the creator gave,

as chaos and divine energy regularly clash, new organisms started to emerge soon countless lifeforms spread throughout the endless space that we now call the universe.

Ramiel was fascinated and told Allatou the story she mention was similar to what he was able to read back at home, saying that everything is basically being held together by energy.

"wow" Ramiel was a true student of knowledge they continue sharing stories when Allatou stop Ramiel and told him to stay quiet and not speak unless she tells her that it was ok, he was about to respond when he heard a menacing voice treating Allatou but he was asked not to speak so even if he was hearing the uncomfortable and troubling sound he stayed quiet.

Ya Zuo did not wasted anymore time as soon as he enters the next room he will just have to evade the barrage of gunfire and quickly scan the area, who ever plan executed this abduction was meticulous and sure have back up and probably knew all of there movement as soon as there came to Indonesia because location tread that elder Grandma Mao qiáng place on Ramiels body was severed after the Berung Island incident, and adding that Rameil is unconscious they can't feel his aura, knowing all of this prove this was not just a ordinary ransom kidnaping, so all of the available information they were pointed to this location like they actually planed wanted to get caught.

Ya Zuo limit his movement and just avoid killing those who were there just for the money, unlike the armed mercenary who was there with intending to kill them on the spot , this was a different matter, but murdering awakened people with no battle experience was a waste of time.

their action will now be on defense rather than attack, seeing old a few women among the group was a pain in the butt, the two can see the enemy's aura color and the variation of their ability in that group was diverse and not planning the right course will eventually lead to death, because a few were poison ability users, this could be a lot easier if they were hired killers and not groups of Delist ethereal.

they were standing side by side at the end of the ten-foot length and 6 foot-wide corridor, at the end of that corridor was an open area that might be a former mess hall, killing them was already out of the question, but breaking their bones was acceptable, they both look as each other and place back their main weapons and smiled, in unison the two counted, they position their body at a running stance, the old carpet they were standing on it as soon as they get to 3 its gets ripped apart from the sheer force of their dash dismantles the maple wood flooring like it was made of toothpicks.

they each strike the delist Ethereal even before any of them could activate their ability, Ms Lin used spear-hand attacks to immobilize the target, especially those who she felt might have a poison ability, one by one the hired low Ethereal were dropping in pain, as each stab was delivered to break the target's bones,

Ms Lin was also having the same issue so the moment the two met on the 5th floor and saw that low-level Etherea was gathered on the entire floor was open and going thru all of them was part of the abductors' plan to drain their stamina and waste time, Ya Zuo estimated there was about 40 plus greedy Ethereals vagabond that will do anything just to get some cash in their greedy little pockets, and facing them head-on might be a foolish mistake as they have no idea what are their abilities, so they need to tread this situation carefully.

while Ya Zuo strike the target with a Knife Hand Strike his destructive chop was all aimed toward the enemy's collarbone, the impact was fast heavy and swift the person who receive his attack fell to their knees unconscious drooling on the floor.

their movement was in sync as if the two were dancing, their blocks and attack were whimsical there was no wasted turn, jab, or deflect, and even connecting sling, and the toss was accurate as connecting stab would fracture the tendons and muscle with surgical movements, one would block and adjust the momentum and leave a small opening for a counter punch to ensure massive damage,

October 12, 4.00 pm

after a few minutes, all random 40-plus Delist Ethereal were moaning in pain on the very floor they were paid to protect, as they continue to go up to the last remaining floor assuming the worst-case scenario at hand they once again took out their weapons.

an explosion was heard as Ya Zuo and Ms Lin took the last step at the emergency staircase going up to the 6th floor, the vibration of the big detonation feels farther away at the secondary target, as the metal exit door shudder as dust fall from on top of their heads and thinking that their boss was almost about to finish his task,

they move quickly as soon as they kick the emergency door inward after entering they saw a view that they never expected to see and right away knew something was not right, because the entire floor has no room it was far more open unlike the floor that they came from, no ceilings and the beam post that supposed to be supporting the structure was left broken it was still standing with but there was no roof to hold, what remained was a wall that surrounds the top floor.

October 12, 4:01 pm

and at the very boundary of the defoliated area, a motionless Ramiel was lying on the floor, and even from a distance, Ya Zuo and Ms. Lin could see a summoning circle carved on the marble veneer, and a man stood a few feet away holding something they felt was filled with dark malice, so they started to circle him.
