When I opened my eyes only thing I could see was infinit darkness, I tried standing but fell back down immediately. Looking for Celestia I tried to stand up once more. I stood up but failed to find Celestia.
Then startling me a voice came from behind... A deep, calming and relaxing voice. I looked back who I saw left me gasping for air,it was the same man that was at the party and our house. But something was off about him instead of the beautiful gorgeous eyes I met with hollowed out eyes.
I then looked a bit closer there were no eyes inside only the sockets of them.
"Well hello again Nero Blackwood. I do not think you missed me that much did you...."
This time instead of the soothing attractive voice of his that I heard before it was a deep, raspy almost demon like voice.
"Wh... who on earth are you and what the fuck you want with me ?"
I asked.
"No no no you have misunderstood me I don't want anything from you two...."
"Bu..."
"Wait 'you two' what the fuck you mean by that."
"Oh right, you don't know do you. It's not only you who sees the beautiful Celestia... She can be seen by other.... Hmmm well you know it would be a shame to revile who I am now."
"F... Fine I don't give a flying fuck about who the fuck you are... Just tell me what you want and what you did with Cel...."
I asked with gritted teeth.
"It is not what I want but about what you want...." He said with a half smile.
"What I want.. what the hell are you talking about.... Huh you mother fucker."
"What you want is power.... And I can grant you that.... But in exchange something you have.... Now before you go on rejecting my offer think about your future about the riches you could have the status and of course the women as well..."
I froze a little bit "all that power but at the cost of what exactly?" I asked.
"What I want is your body..."
"Haaaaah what the fuck man... are you gay or something.... Hell no..."
"You stupid imbecile, I was not talking about it like that. What I referred to your body as a vessel for me...."
"And why would I agree to do th...."
Before I could finish speaking I felt a massive blow of wind go past my ear just inches away.... "What the hell.." I got scared by just the scale of power he displayed. And when I turned back What I saw left me speechless. In the black void we were in there was a massive rip through and I saw light shimmer inside.
When I turned to gaze back at him he stood there grinning ear to ear....
"So..." He finally said after a minute of grinning...
"Do you expect my offer.... Oh and don't worry I won't hurt your little Celestia..."
'This much power and strength if I attain it I'll be stronger than any other Hunter in this world.' I thought to myself
"So, what do I have to do...." I asked...
"Finally decided huh...." Then he started to chant something in a different language....
"Omnia quae mea sunt, tibi do; et quae tua sunt, mea erunt; et quae mea erunt, tua erunt."
Then with a blinding light he decreased... And I fell to the ground in agony holding my abdomen... "Now the ritual is done you and I are one.."
A voice inside my spoke.... It was him...
I rose up gasping for air... "Shit you fucker... Gah... Eh.... What now..?"
"Now we shall see how far you can go..." Snap in an instant I was teleported into a different place a place full of huge monsters, demons, and dragons. It was a space witch the air was safocating it was thick with dust and smoke... Fire and the smell of death...
"What....whe...where are we?" I asked taking a step back.
"Don't worry Blackwood. This is what I call the trial zone... In here you can grow stronger without being seen by anyone... Or if you are asking about Celestia then don't worry she'll be alright...."
"So should we start..." I said getting into a fighting stance.
"Oh and by the way what should I call you Mr no name?"
"Interested in my name are we, well Blackwood why don't you call me Nyxios..."
A dog shaped monster was running towards me and I was scared shit less... Then Nyxios said....
"Repeat after me boy.. 'Shadow scythe'"
I did but nothing happened...
"You fucking faker I.... Am.... Going to kill you..." I said, no I screemed at Nyxios while starting to run away from the beast.
"You fool point your finger towards it, otherwise you are just waiting you're words "
I stopped running turned towards the monster and pointing my finger towards it screemed 'SHADOW SCYTHE'.
Then in an instant the beast was cut in half.. with a loud thud the beast's sliced body fell to the ground.
"Wow... Was that...me ?" I asked myself.
"No.... That was us.."
Right when I was about to enjoy defeating the beast, I heard a more violent cry coming from the corps. When I looked at it, it was moving with gruesome sounds... Moments later it started to fall apart, pieces of flesh fell.
A disgusting rotting smell filled the battle field. I covered it my face...
"What is it this time...."
"Oh right that's one is a female Carnex..."
"A.... What?."
"A mother.... What is that mean.."
"Well... You see kid a mother beast when killed or dead... From their rotting corpse a smaller one shall rise..."
"WHAT... WHAT THE FUCK...ARE MAD.. well whatever I'll just use the same move as before... 'SHADOW SCYTHE'..."
I used the same stance and the hand gesture as before... But nothing happened... Again I did it again 'SHADOW.... SCYTHE'.
"What... the hell... nothing happened... WHERE IS THAT DAMM TECHNIQUE..., NYXIOS...."
"Hmm... it seems like you don't have that much soul energy do you Blackwood?"
"What soul energy.. I don't have an ounce of that.. YOU FUCKING IDIOT..."
"ooops...!"
"OOPS IS THAT ALL YOU GOT TO SAY,...?"
I dropped the Stance as fast as I got into it... And started to run without looking back...
"If you didn't know, then why the fuck did you fucking bring me here... YOU MOTHER FUCKER..."
"He he sorry sorry... Didn't actually know.... When I heard that you were the only case in the world that didn't had any soul energy.. I didn't think that it was that low... But how did you manage to hit the 'Shadow scythe' before... Oh right,it might be because of my leaking soul energy..."
"what...the.. fuck....I don't even have a bit of soul energy...,and you are saying you didn't know that before choosing me..."
"WHAT... Then how on earth did Celestia chose you as her vessel..?"
"How the hell do I know?...."
A deep growling sound came behind me.... And a loud running sound coming closer and closer... I looked back to see how close it was....
It was about five or ten feet meters far, it was far gruesome than it's mother a grotesque pup, born from the twisted womb of Carnax, this creature is a smaller, more feral version of its parent. Its body is a twisted knot of sinew and bone, with eyes that glow like hot coals in the dark. The Spawn's jaws are filled with needle-sharp teeth, constantly clicking and snapping as it scatters about, driven by an insatiable hunger. Its skin is a patchwork of mangled fur and oozing sores, infesting everything it touches with a creeping decay.
"DO.... SOMETHING.... NYXIOS..... OTHER WISE YOU AND I ARE GONERS..."
"Don't worry kid... If that thing kills us only you would die, I'll just choose another vessel..."
"Hhhha! AND YOU ARE FINE WITH THAT THING KILLING ME....? YOU... MOTHER... FUCKER...DO SOMETHING...."
"Sorry kid... There's nothing we can do... Unless!"
"UNLESS?"
"Unless... You die and I receive your body's full control.... So how about it Blackwood....?"
"Not in a million years...."
"Just die then see if I care"
The fact that he dragged me into this madness and the fact that he doesn't mind my death pissed me off so much I decided to kill the fucking Carnex and stopped running and started to wait....
Nyxios was now suddenly screaming at to run... But I just stopped listening and started to wait for the carnex...
The moment it came an inch closer to me I turned around and with all my strength landed a punch to it's head... And send it straight down the punch I delivered was so damn strong it cracked opened it's head and the acidic blood started to burn my hand... When it hit the ground the floor shattered leaving a crater around us....
"Hah... Hah... Haa... Nyxios... I didn't need you after all huh?."
"What... on the... heaven's name... How...how..did you do that....."
"How I don't know exactly why..but, I guess rough training throughout my life had it's tow on me..."
"Hoc interest magis."
And I knelt and finally let out a scream in excitement, so Nyxios can finally send me back home. But that I think I started to enjoy sooner. Since now I was getting seriously so rounded by more and more Carnexes...
"Shit... Well Nyxios looks like the fight is just getting started...."
