In the enigmatic world of laxarria, mysteries swirled like shadows in the night. It was a place where the line between power and peril blurred, and those who thrived were the ones who learned to navigate its treacherous waters.
In a certain unknown [zone], a young child who knew nothing of his true origins was about to embark on a journey that would stir up the already murky waters of this treacherous world, changing the fates of those around him and setting him on a unique path.
"ugh" a painful grunt escaped the mouth of a child sprawled on the floor, his thoughts a mess as he woke up with a severe migraine.
He laid in a pool of blood buck naked while his eyes were still tightly shut as he rubbed his forehead trying to alleviate his pain.
He sat up from the ground after which he opened his shut eyes which were squinted due to his headache.
Focusing his gaze on his surroundings, he saw a picturesque view, which seemed to strangely glisten in a rare hue of purple.
All around him where towering trees with strange purplish tinted leaves, the grasses and flowers all around him seemed to exhibit the same properties as his surroundings, the glistening hue of purple painted a beautiful scene.
Which was ruined by unnatural craters, which appeared as though they were newly formed, they encompassed a range of no more than a mile and littered the surroundings.
Lying right next to the kid, was the corpse of a creature that seemed to have recently died.
It's stature was six feet tall, the creature was covered in coarse dark fur that shone with a metallic tint, gorilla-like facial features, and a physique closely resembling primates.
It had long thick arms with sharp claws at each end, the creature was the bare image of carnage.
This six feet behemoth lied sprawled on the floor next to the little child, it's body riddled with injuries, blood flowing from it's injuries coalesced into a pool under its body, and in which the child sat.
It's eyes lifeless as they betrayed the ferocity you will expect to see from such a creature,
The brutality was all erased only leaving traces of fear that could only be seen with careful observation.
It's face frozen in horror, it could only be imagined what could make such a creature horrified.
The child stands up from the floor before averting his gaze to the corspe, in a situation like this, wherein you wake up and see a corpse lying right next to you.The normal reaction of a perfectly sane person would be to jump up in fright and start panicking in fear, before later regaining their composure.
But the child just took a look at his surroundings with utmost composure and serenity, while relishing in the silence present throughout his surroundings.
As the child took in every single detail with inexplicable familiarity, his gaze wandered, his inner thoughts silent, as he observed his surroundings in utmost concentration.
A certain twinkle could be seen in his eyes that seemed to betray the composure held within his gaze, a slight sense of satisfaction and excitement bred by the completion of a hunt, and the conquering of a foe.
"The hunt today, was a little stressful." thought the child as he looked at the craters that seemed to be everywhere, he patted his body to get rid of the withered leaves stuck on him, because of the coagulating blood on his body.
The child then approached the corpse his body bathed in it's blood which had coagulated.
He gazed at the six feet creature which seemed to once be a sight of magnificence sprawled on the floor.
The child's intuitive gaze roamed around the corpse, as he observed the corpse lying lifelessly on the floor.
The child took a step closer to the corpse, before nodding in satisfaction.
The child in an unnatural display of strength lifts the corpse that should weigh tons with inexplicable ease and familiarity.
He started taking huge strides deep into the forest filled with trees whose crowns were covered in purplish leaves.
The sound of the crunched leaves under his feet gave life to the barren forest.
The child had the stature of a kid within the ages of ten, with toned muscles unnatural for such an age, silky silver hair at shoulder length covered his eyes and obscured any attempts to get a good view of his facial features, his eyes covered by his hair, had hexagonal pupils as his irises were in different colors, one was colored grey and the other green.
The child's body which was covered in coagulated blood obscured his features more, as it made him look more like a monster.
His hair covering his face had pieces of flesh intwined with some of it's strands. As his silver hair seemed to be dyed crimson.
As the child ventured deeper into this strange forest, his body seemed to emanate a unique type of energy,as his headache subsided.
He sprinted through the forests, his legs stepping on the withered leaves on the floor without making a single noise, as he blitzed through the surroundings, he turned to his sides to see the trees passing by him in rapid motion.
It would look quite comical seeing a little kid of about age ten, sprinting through a forest with such a large load on their back's. If you could see him that is; his figure seemingly blurred as he moved through the forest.
As the child was weaving his way through the forest, the child averted his gaze to the sky, focusing on the purplish canvas that seemed to entice all those who gazed at it.
He kept his gaze on the sky while still running, before directing his attention back to the forest, the child focus wandered, unaware of the presence stalking him in the depths of the forest.
A smile was plastered on his face as he recalled some memories, how he woke up in a forest without any other memories, how he battled against other creatures and killed them for survival, the excitement from those battles and the satisfaction he gained after every successful kill.
"hissssssssss."
A sudden sound jolted him out of his thoughts as he gazed forward, in his sights a giant maw rapidly approached his head.
He was a little disoriented by the hiss as it aggravated his already calmed migraine, his gaze observed the creature, he couldn't make out it's full appearance, only its maw could be seen.
A grin showed signs of appearing on his face as he gazed at the large maw
The giant maw now inches away from his body, the child displayed inexplicable components, he maneuvered with grace that seemed ephemeral as he created distance between him and the creature in an instant, while still safely securing his hunt.
Although the life-threatening situation he just experienced the child still kept a small toothy grin on his face which couldn't be seen as his hair obscured his face.
His hexagonal pupils started spinning in response to his excitement.
After creating distance between himself and his assailant, the child proceeded to observe the creature.
His assailant was a serpent that would've measured about 40 feet long or more with a slender streamlined body, its dark scales were highlighted by the purplish skies, its muscles under it's scales seemed to contract and expand in anticipation, an eight-inch horn grew out of its skull, with purple eyes that had a vertical slit for a pupil.
its gaze which screamed brutality was staring straight at the child's.
As he was examining his opponent, so also was his opponent examining him.
The serpent displayed a lack of patience as it approached again with frightening speed, its intentions clear as it wanted to close the distance between them.
The child heaved a large sigh as he saw his opponent approaching with rapid speed, his thoughts unknown, his opponent quickly closed the distance between both sides.
The wind from the speed of the serpent's approach blew his hair, revealing a childish face, a huge grin was plastered on his face, as his hexagonal pupils spinned, his irises twinkled in response as a maniacal look could be seen in it's depth.
He clenched his unfolded palms into fists, which were then encapsulated by a strange lilac-colored energy.
The lilac-colored energy seemed to pressure his surroundings as the color around him seemed to dim, as it wrapped tighter around his fists.
He threw a punch at the incoming creature with pure killing intent brimming in his eyes, as his grin started widening.
As the serpent saw the fist heading to its head, it wanted to retreat, to run away but it found out it couldn't move it's body.
It's body which was cold, felt warmth building from it's head, with drowsy eyes it saw a dust cloud forming slowly as it felt its skull crack,it turned its gaze upward catching sight of the child, whose eyes were staring at it with a grin on his face.
The serpent started losing consciousness, a loud boom was heard which seemed to signal it's end as it closed it's eyes.
All though it seemed like a lot of time passed, all that happened within a few seconds, as the child moved out of the way and a huge serpent appeared where the kid was once standing.
Then the child appeared a certain distance away from the creature.
Before the creature with lightning-like reflexes then pounced again at the child, the child stood still before he started imbuing a type of energy in his hand which he clenched into a fist.
The lilac-colored energy seemed to take away all the color from the world and exhibited a pressure that weighed on one soul and the environment, with quick speed the boy delivered a devastating punch with his fist clad in that world rending energy, the energy which the child will later get to know as '[void aether]'.
The fist landed on the creature's head which brought about a sonic boom which resonated throughout his surroundings.
A massive crater was formed under the snake's body in seconds, the commotion brought about by the impact stirred up a huge dust cloud which obscured the aftermath of the scene.
After the dust dispersed, the body of the snake laid in the huge crater without a single sign of life, blood flowing from it's squashed head, which had a dent which could be seen to have been created by a little fist, brain fluid oozing from the dent, mixed with the flowing blood.
A strange energy which couldn't be noticed normally left the creature and returned to the surroundings.
The creature in all it's glory laid there dead with no sign of the the little child or the corpse on his back.
A huge distance away, a figure laid under the shade of the trees which are known as amethyst mystifirs.
He was basking in the comfort brought about by the shade, a sword with intricate designs of a dragon on its sheath,and an insignia of unknown origin on its hilt, was hugged tightly to his chest.
All around him were corpses of monsters that were all cleanly severed.
A bloody scene painted that part of the forest with pieces of flesh spread all around, tiny streams made of blood flowed and interlinked creating a picturesque scene that seemed to glisten like the stars.
Under the shade, an aura of melancholy seemed to surround the figure, the serenity and peace is then ruined, as a loud boom was heard throughout the [zone].
The figure under the shade gazed in the direction where the sound originated, before deciding to stand up from under the shade with his sword in tow, he started heading to the sound of the commotion with light steps.
