Chapter 40 - JOINING THE HUNTERS

The sun was setting down, when Cole came out from the cabin he has been in , he saw men and women at a corner learning martial arts.

He has been thinking about something ever since he came here, to the Hunters kingdom or HK as they choose to call it, the same reason that made him stay back, one was the fact that he needed to be strong enough to help his twin sister face whatever thing she's going through, second was to get revenge for the death of his parents, he's going to kill every single Demon thst he lays his hands on, then the last but not the lease was to take over the Mafia world, if he could be strong enough to take on Demons, vampires, Wolves and other mystical creature then who are humans that he can't handle.

he walked a little distance and saw people in their group, eating and drinking, some where sleeping, while others where just chatting with their colleagues.

He also saw few people building something like a house, as some where helping out with the woods while others where nailing it.

sometimes he just don't understand these Hunters.

He sighted the leader of the Hunter where he was, gently Cole approached him.

" evenin' " Cole said, he sat down on one of the stones opposite the leader, as he watched him sharpen his sword on a Stone.

" evenin'" the leader said without rising his head to look up at Cole,

Cole didn't mind, he was used to people giving him cold attitude, that's why he's also cold-hearted.

" I wish to join the Hunters league " Cole went straight to the point.

" have you ever killed a mystical creature before ?" the leader asked, raised his sword to examine it before going back to sharpening it, he was Shirtless, sweat drip down his body, his dark hair was braided by the side, he looked hot, with his broad shoulders and chiseled abs.

" not really " Cole replied,

" then you can't join the Hunters league " the leader said with finality in his tune, but Cole has always been someone who doesn't take No for an answer, after all he's a Mafia Lord.

" am joining the Hunters league and that's something you can't decide for me " Cole said, the leader stopped what he was doing and stare at him.

" and who's going to grant you permit ?" he rised his brow at Cole.

" I can grant myself " Cole replied.

the leader chuckled softly, he looked at Cole intensively.

" being a Hunter isn't by choice, it's a heritage, Hunters are immune to any form of magic, that's a trait we got from our ancestors "

Cole knew where the man is driving at thus he countered by saying.

" my sister is in the hands of a mystical creature, I don't know why but I believe she's special, you don't judge a book by its cover " .

The leader stood up after confirming that his sword was ready to go, he turned and began to walk away, Cole followed him, that was when he noticed that the leader's hair was actually shoulder length and there was a write up on his spine, like a tattoo

' Ex FAVILLA NOS RESURGEMUS '

Cole stare at the word, he just know he has seen those words some where but he can't possibly remember where.

" these wo...."

" A Hunter must first learn to overcome their fear " the leader said cutting Cole short,

Cole looked round where they were, it was an open field, okay how can an open field make him overcome his fear.

" Karelia ?" the leader called, the same girl who did the blood test on Cole came out of nowhere, this time around she has a bow across her shoulder alongside an arrow.

" drew out his nightmare " the girl bowed at the man before she proceeded to look at Cole , who rised his brow curiously at them both.

" I thought only mystical creatures can perform something like that ?" Cole questioned .

" we have special abilities that each of us posses " the leader said.

Cole nod in understanding, well, he's ready, if that's what it will take for him to get his revenge.

Karelia moved closer to Cole , she placed her right hand on his forehead while the other on his chest, and then closed her eyes.

At first nothing happened, Cole just stare at her before he glanced at the leader, he inhaled deeply, thinking that nothing will happen.

but then within a blink of an eye Cole found himself in another world, the place was in a complete mess, buildings has collapsed, some were on the brick of collapsing, thick smokes rose to the sky, the place was quite, nothing was in place, it was completely obvious that a war has taken place, many dead bodies lay on the ground, some were in a state beyond recognition, others he could still tell who they were, and admits those people were his sister Gloria.

No

Cole ran over to her, pushing through the pile of dead bodies.

„ Gloria, he called out to her " he knelt down beside her and tried to carry her but his hand went pass her.

what the hell ?

A howling sound made him cushion about his surrounding, he turned to see a white Wolf attacking someone, the person's green and black hair was familiar, he moved out of the way as the person fling the Wolf causing it to crash with a building, the impact was so much that the collapsing building finally collapsed, Cole had to move away from the building which fell on the dead bodies.

Nooooo

he screamed , yet the two creatures ignored him, the moment the green and black hair turned around Cole was superfixed.

Clifford !!!

how is Clifford here ?

hold on a minute, Clifford is a mystical creature ?

Cole was finding it really hard to believe, no wonder he felt that strange feeling the first day he saw him.

the battle ground became more fury, that Cole had to keep on moving away, with the way Clifford was fighting it was clear he was angry, was it because his sister was dead ?

did the white Wolf have anything to do with it ?

Cole was still moving backwards when he suddenly found himself back at that open field with the Karelia almost collapsing had Cole not caught her on time, immediately the Hunter leader ran over to them, he lifted Karelia up and carried her in a bridal style.

" how come she's the one who got weaken and not you ?" he asked, Cole was confused about what just happened, he was too stunned to respond, too superfixed to move , he just stood rooted to the ground while the leader carried Karelia away leaving Cole to himself.
