  Sudden enlightenment!

  Jodye Trill was once a special operations agent for the U.S. military. However, the higher-ups soon discovered that he was capable of miraculous things. He could get shot in the head, but be okay the next day. He could get burned in a fire, but wake up in the morning without so much as a blemish.

  This was, of course, outrageous and not normal. Life got complicated for Jodye once word got out. The country he was from referred to people like him, those with unexplained natural abilities, as Meta-Humans. After being forcefully transferred to the secret unit for undercover 'meta-human' training, he endured daily torture due to the nature of his ability. They experimented on him frequently, pushing the limits of what he could recover from.

  In spite of this, no one was able to pinpoint where the limits of his ability lied, nor were they able to weaponize it. They wanted to ascertain the battle properties of his mutation, which was honestly more of an exceptional physique then an ability. Every time Jodye recovered his body would become more than a bit stronger.

  As a result, they just converted Jodye into a high-level spy and assassin.

  Special Agent: Trill Jodye!

  Jodye also had to undergo high profile stealth missions. He even dressed as a ninja often, just for shits and giggles. In reality, such tough training and loads of high-level operative work had made him just like an actual ninja. He could easily separate and sort through this sea of knowledge he had been transmitted.

  After briefly pondering where he was, he realized everything was so dark and empty. Lonely and desolate. So quiet he almost wished the voice of maximum volume returned for another round of conversation! Well, almost was ultimately only almost. Nonetheless, Jodye began to eagerly study the information in his mind. What else was there to do now that the voice of eternal boom and doom was gone?

  After an unknown amount of time had passed, Jodye Trill finally adjusted his thoughts. He had, apparently, received the memories of an ancient Titan. This was something insane that usually only happened in movies. These memories seem to include just the first 300 years of a man named Jupiter Titan's cultivation practice and fighting experience. However, he felt vexed as he was definitely not an ancient Titan.

  Before now, he didn't even know they were real beings.

  In fact, he still wasn't so sure about that. However, one subject, in particular, sparked Jodye's interest.

  Spiritual awareness.

  Using your spirit to sense your surroundings, as opposed to your physical senses. It typically required a specific ‘soul cultivation realm’ to have been reached. Unless your soul was strong enough, and was not restricted by a mortal form, then it was also possible. Based on his last memory, there was a strong possibility that this was his current circumstance.

  After ruminating over the ancient Titan's method to use such a magnificent ability, Jodye Trill, for some reason felt he had already done this once before. Before he came to a realization! This feeling was similar to his awaked survival instinct that was gained from military experience.

  “And Sansa said that I’d never gain anything of value at the military, tsk.” Following this thought, without delay, he cast out his spiritual awareness and felt like he had opened his eyes for the first time in countless years.

  Unfortunately, his first sight shocked him to the core.

  They were in the middle of what looked like a giant underground cavern. In the surroundings, there were strange lights that looked like millions of eyes in the atmosphere all around, even partially inside the cave walls and floor. Jodye looked down at his glowing platinum body, and he almost passed out. After his shock, Jodye realized that he looked corporeal while illusory in a strange contrast. His body had the size of an eight-year-old child, and this baffled him.

  Not even two meters front of him was a dashing golden colored youth, with a similar form, who looked to be about 11 years of age, wearing white clothes and floating in the air while staring down at a yellow river. Next to him was a floating sword that was pure golden and massive. It had mystic runes on the hilt and blade, and a glowing red gem at the base of the handle. The youth seemed to sense something, quickly turning his head around.

  When he saw the eight-year-old staring back at him, he felt incredulous.

  "So you're not quite as useless as I thought. Hm? Dragon Chant?" Said the youth in white. There was a mysterious melody in the air, it was simultaneously beautiful and terrifying. Just at that moment, there was a rumbling sound, as the ground started quaking.

  The youth in white then spoke again, as the world continued to quake, "It seems I won't have time to answer any of your questions, for you surely have too many. Listen, you trust me, yes? Do not doubt that feeling, we are already companions. Briefly, when we encounter what's next, do not resist me. I will not harm you. Probably. Well, at any rate, this is all I can think about doing. When we fuse together yield to me!"

  As the youth was speaking, his form began to change into that of a rather majestic looking giant platinum wolf with runic line patterns on his fur, and two enormous wings on his back.

  The water of the yellow river then exploded outwards, and from the depths emerged a colossal creature with frightfully menacing sharp teeth. It had a scaled head that resembled a dinosaur, like a T-Rex. On his massive muzzle were two long whiskers that flowed magically like they were made of smoke.

  This creature had a tail that only God knew how many miles long it was, and an immense body with four arms, eight claws, and four majestic wings, two that looked like pterodactyl wings and two that looked like angelic wings with platinum feathers. On its forehead were two huge silver runic horns that sparkled with light and electric energies. It burst out the water, straight upwards. Then it slowly coiled it's long body back down as it floated in the sky.

  Unless Jodye was crazy, he would definitely realize this monstrous creature was a dragon! It looked like a cross between the western and eastern dragons he had seen in films! He heard the wolf's howl, which somehow sounded apprehensive, then the wolf uttered a single word that somehow felt like two and one simultaneously.

  “Draco Volos.”

  The dragon then let out an earth-shattering and mighty roar, before swallowing the three entities into its belly. Inside of the dragon, it didn't look like the inside of a creature at all. It seemed more like a mystical multicolored passageway that led to heaven, or some nice place like that. This was opposed to oblivion, which Jodye expected in his heart. Who knew the trip to hell would be so thrilling? In front of him, the white wolf howled towards the heavens, and suddenly there was a violent explosion.

  Green and black flames danced and intertwined with each other as they engulfed everything in sight. Jodye remembered the words of the youth in white from before and found he did, in fact, have a strange amount of faith in him. This was in spite of being utterly unfamiliar with the youth. This feeling seemingly came straight from the depths of his soul. As if they had already experienced years together or something.

  Suddenly, Jodye felt another surge of power wash over himself. At the same time, he felt it as the mark Sansa put on his chest disappeared. He had actually forgotten about it before now. Suddenly, his own form changed as an ancient aura similar to the dragon slowly diffused from him. He heard the mysterious dragon chant in his mind before all went back to black.

  Sky Fall Legend

  Chapter one

  Clean this up for Daddy

  — West Ward, Eastern Badlands

  On a vast and beautiful continent, while half of the continent looked like a vibrant and pleasant land full of lush scenery and hidden treasures, there was another half that was widely barren and desolate. The Southern and Western Wards of this continent were renowned for being the most violent and bloodthirsty regions on the planet. The voodoo practitioners of the West Ward especially were famed for their debauchery and wicked curse arts. In the eastern corner of the West Ward was a massive region of wastelands.

  The Eastern Badlands region was a desolate and mostly barren land, that was full of death and crime. However, the deeper one went into these lands, the taller and thicker the trees became. It was to the extent that the trees blocked the view of many of the mountains within. Unfortunately, the aura of death and maliciousness clouded every corner of these lands. The sound of the creepy wind constantly whistling felt eerie to the extreme. There was continuous howling coming from the gigantic beasts in the distance, causing increased heart palpitations.

  From afar, this place looked to be a graveyard for rocks and withered grass, and so vast that the forest behind was hardly visible. The periphery of the Eastern Badlands was overrun with dying brown grass and small trees, many of which were barely ten feet tall, while some were still several dozens of meters tall. It was a genuinely unnatural appeal. Rocks of varied sizes littered the land, the boundaries of which stretched back as far as the eye could see.

  Deep inside the forested region of the Eastern Badlands, five warriors were wearing black hooded cloaks that covered their faces. There was also a devilishly handsome young man who was tall with fierce hazel eyes and white clothes. Two ferocious looking, massive, and violent, vicious beasts battled amid these people. These people were all wearing high-quality clothing made of fabulous fabrics, though they were mostly covered in black robes.

  There was a fierce fight going on, but their clothes appeared to not be damaged or stained in the slightest. The young man even had jewels on his hands, wrists, and neck. His muscular torso was bare, with a few fresh scars from the fierce fight he was in.

  On the left was a seven-meter tall giant ape, that looked like a purple orangutan. This ape had lightning symbol patterns on its fur and a small silver horn on its head that occasionally sparkled with electricity. On the right, there was a six-meter tall wolf with blue fur and a silver patch on its back. The wolf's fangs looked to be made of crystal ice. The two fierce beasts were engaged in an earth-shaking struggle, but the giant ape was more focused on trying to smash one of the humans firing magic spells and attacks.

  The men in black garb took turns attacking the ape.

  "Greater Earth Piercing Spike!" Four rock walls surrounded the ape, and a stout man pierced out with a mighty rock spear.

  "Golden Sea Frenzy!" A tall and slim man with blonde hair visible from within his hood blew into a magical looking conch. Sapphire waves of water full of sparkling golden brick pieces rushed out of the conch like a raging sea, blasting into the ape!

  The ape collided with the stout man's spear with an arm that looked like a purple thunderbolt!

  Boom!

  The stout was sent flying dozens of meters back, crashing through the forest. The purple furred ape roared and slammed heavily on its own chest as shockwaves of thunder force shattered the waves and rock walls.

  "Dreaded Plague!" a slender warrior slashed out a great saber light that transformed into a dreadful purple beam full of gray star lights. The ape sensed that something was dangerous about the incoming attack and tried to dodge, but its shoulder was pierced straight through leaving it injured.

  The wolf's fangs radiated freezing cold energy as it savagely bit into the ape's shoulder, which begins to slowly freeze. The ape let out a pained roar, and its body exploded with thunderbolt force shocking the wolf into retreat but also cause its frozen flesh to burst apart!

  The warriors kept casting elemental spells at the ape, their movements forming a magical formation. Every time one of the men in black landed an attack, the wolf followed up with a bite or swipe of its paws.

  "ROAR~~~,"

  Getting angry, the ape let out a mighty roar, releasing a terrifying shock wave of its powerful thunder energy, pushing the warriors and the wolf back dozens of meters. It stomped with its left leg, then propelled forward at an insane speed! The ape condensed thunderbolt force in its right leg and kicked the warrior who harmed it through a giant tree, resulting in a thunderous boom and briefly revealing the feminine curve of the warrior's body.

  "Argh! Mercer cover me!" After taking an electrically charged kick from the ape to her abdomen, the female warrior used her light voice to scream at her nearest companion. The ape's fists condensed marvelous thunderbolt force before hammering down on the woman! It was aiming to crush the female warrior into meat paste.

  "Slaughter, dodge!" Shouted the warrior called Mercer as he rushed over like a rocket in a burst of flame, knowing he could never make it in time. However, before having a chance to panic, he saw something that made him relax. A silhouette swiftly appeared under the crushing fist and picked up the female warrior before flashing away agilely with the help of the wind. Mercer smirked, his mission instantly changing from rescue to attack!

  "BOOM, BOOM, BOOM," Thunder resounded as the giant ape kept launching attacks at the two retreating warriors. The young man in white dashed over with a speed that surpassed even the giant ape. The young man in white slid across the ground, tripping the rampaging giant purple furred ape, who apparently never expected its leg to get caught. The ape fell comically, tumbling through a couple of trees.

  The big blue wolf wouldn't miss such a chance, appearing in the air above the fallen ape as the big blue wolf dove in and aggressively bit the back of the ape's neck, leaving a deep gash. The ape roared in pain and anger, grabbing and tossing the wolf away. However, the wolf simply rolled and continued attacking.

  "Awoooo!" Each attack of the wolf sent a miniature tornado full of sharp wind force cutting into the ape's flesh. With the wind came a piercing cold, slowing the purple-furred ape's recovery and response time. Every time the giant ape put its focus on one of the human targets, the wolf swiped out with its paws, lacerating it with an ice-cold wind force.

  The ape responded by spitting electric loogies. These loogies expanded to be a meter thick and a meter long. They shot out like thunderbolts, accurately striking the wolf. This continued three times back to back before the big blue wolf had to back down. The devilishly handsome man landed next to the wolf at that moment. The wolf face pendant on the man's neck was releasing an eerie purplish glow.

  "You okay buddy?" asked the young man.

  The wolf whimpered as electricity was building up in its body, hindering its movement. The one called 'Mercer' by the female warrior had fire red hair that just barely visible under his hood. Mercer landed on top of a high branch, and a light flashed from the ring on his hand, equipping him with a large and majestic ebony bow, with beautiful hieroglyphics inscribed all over its massive frame.

  Pulling the bow taut, Mercer kept condensing burning energies in his left hand, before releasing them. He was shooting massive arrows made out of flames at the ape-beast, who kept dodging. On the other side, the blonde haired elder fired an ice ball, as the big blue wolf lashed out with claws and teeth! However, the ape leaped into the air with a mighty flip, and the ice ball collided with the wolf. Finally, after successfully jumping out of the pincer at
tack the lightning covered ape took a fire arrow through its other shoulder.

  “ARRAOOO!!” the beast roared in a fury.

  "This damn Thu'rangoutang isn't normal. It has monstrous defensive and regenerative capabilities, but its strength is far to low! To think though, he was able to avoid a fatal injury from midair..." the red-haired elder Mercer spoke in a loud and aggressive voice, deep with wisdom. He was vexed as he released a terrifying momentum of force, which blew away his hood as his hair danced without the wind, "My lord, this is no desolate beast."

  "IGNITION!" The red-haired elder Mercer let out an intimidating roar as a black steel chain appeared and coiled itself around Elder Mercer's body like an evil metal dragon. In the next moment, he had grown two meters, as his clothes shredded at the torso, revealing orange-red fur covering his upper body. The airflow around him blurred a testimony to the high level of heat he was releasing.

  His aura exploded, resembling a mass of flames covering his body. In the sky above the elder, there was a phenomenon manifesting itself from the heaven and earth origin energy, that took the form of 18 black light spheres the size of a fist, full of symbols that looked mystical and ethereal. Next, to the fist-sized light spheres were 900 smaller fire light spheres, all the size of marbles.

  Elder Mercer pulled the string on his bow again. Borrowing the force momentum from the spheres of light, fire rotated condensing into two new fire arrows. These fire arrows were three times the size of the last one, and dripping with magma. Elder Mercer released the bowstring, sending the massive twin fire arrows flying towards the Thu'rangoutang, with terribly acute accuracy.

  After getting pierced through each leg by the double fire arrow, the Thu'rangoutang let out a mighty roar full of its rage! It's thunderous aura exploded and extinguished the shaft made from flames. Just as the big blue wolf was coming to take another bite or swipe at the ape, the Thu'rangoutang spun around and caught the blue wolf in the air by its neck. The mighty ape began discharging lightning from its palm. The colossal wolf didn't whimper a bit but used it's remaining strength to snarl and struggle, biting at the wrist that was choking itself.
