《Awakening of a Monster》Chapter 11 - Bloodlines
Advertisement
Amon started messing around with his other affinities and found they were just as easy to use as his blood affinity. His Gravity Magic just increased the gravitational pull around his hand, attracting some small items from the coffee table to his hand, like a sort of telekinesis.
Amon looked at his hand and the assortment of spoons and coasters on his hand with a face full of mirth; he thought this was a funny power to play about with. Amon flipped whatever he was doing around and sent the spoons and coasters flying away from his hand, repelling them onto the table.
His Gravity Magic seemed to take a lot of thought to use and he wasn't exactly sure on how to use it adeptly just yet.
Next was his Density Magic, he focused this on his whole body. It seemed to magically make him denser without decreasing his size or increasing it either.
Amon stood up feeling the increased power in his body. It felt like he was made of living metal at the minute because of the magic, his power had increased but his defense was the thing that had been increased the most.
Amon canceled the magic as soon as he'd finished his analysis of what it did. The Magic seemed to hurt his body the longer he used, he needed his base body to be stronger for him to have more and more increased time in the Denser form.
Amon looked at the others who were using their magic just as easily as him, and Sasha who's mouth was agape in shock before it turned into a prideful smile because she probably realized that these 5 kids were her students.
"Sasha, can I talk to you for a bit? I've pretty much got my magic under control." As he said this he waved his hand into the air, summoning both his Unholy element and Blood element. His Unholy element looked like a dense black fog full of malice and evil and along with the Blood element rotating around it, it seemed even more demonic than on its own.
Sasha looked at Amon's control over magic and nodded and walked over to the kitchen where she could talk to Amon privately.

When they entered the kitchen, Amon sat on one of the kitchen chairs and Sasha did the same before she looked at Amon "What did you want to talk to me about then?"
"I want to know what both my bloodlines are, in full, no details withheld." Amon's gaze was incredibly serious and his face was very solemn as he faced Sasha.
Sasha seemed to have been expecting his question, so she took a deep breath of fresh air before answering his question "Well, let's start with your Demon side. As you might have found out, it's a Demon Lord's bloodline, but there are many kinds of Demon Lords that have Bloodlines and yours, well, yours is quite ancient."
Amon guessed as much and he hurried Sasha on. Sasha seemed to hesitate before she carried on "Your Demon Bloodline comes from Abaddon, the Fallen Angel of Destruction, Death and The Abyss. An incredibly archaic bloodline for the Demons."
Amon didn't understand "Angel? Even if it's a Fallen Angel it isn't a Demon, right?" Sasha looked at Amon like he was an idiot "No, the first Demons were Fallen Angels, they were the royalty of the Demon World. The Demons after them were Humans they'd twisted and broken into becoming Demons. You have a Royal Bloodline, rejoice, your majesty." Sasha said that part in a jokey way, slightly bowing.
Amon had an expression of realization on his face; no wonder he had such monumental arrogance and bloodlust, it was because he was a Royal Demon Lord.
Seeing his expression of realization, Sasha knew that Amon had understood what she had said and that he'd pieced it all together in his head.
She gave Amon a minute before carrying on about his other bloodline. "You really were gifted with two incredibly powerful bloodlines, Amon. Your Dragon Bloodline is from a Primordial Abyss Dragon." Sasha seemed to be reminiscing about something she'd seen "Dragons so big, they outgrew their homes in the ocean, on land and in the sky and had to live under the Earth and massive cave systems they made for themselves."
Amon was shocked by what he'd heard, the Dragons must have had to be absolutely massive to outgrow their homes in the sea, on land, and in the sky. Sasha carried on, despite Amon's expression of wonder.

"Like I said yesterday, they grew so big Magic alone couldn't sustain them so they found a way to produce blood through Draconic Magic and became the first and only Dragons to have blood and because their blood was made through magic, it became one of their affinities. As you might expect from their massive size, their strength was unmatched but it came with a con; they had to eat a lot of things. But that's a story for another day unless you start to feel astoundingly ravenous, then you come to me instantly, got it?" Sasha's face looked serious to the extreme at the minute, unlike her usual goofy attitude, so Amon knew that this was very serious and nodded his head.
Knowing his Bloodlines, Amon couldn't help but feel his pride burst forth in his chest. A Royal Demon Lord and a Primordial Dragon, what a matchup for a powerful hybrid.
But Amon understood that the others probably had powerful combinations as well, so he didn't let himself get ahead of himself. He also thought about the disdain shown to Bloodline Warriors from the Class and Ability Users, so there should be something incredibly powerful about them as well.
'But regardless of their power, I'll still win, I'll still crush them, it doesn't matter.'
Amon's competitiveness started stirring again. He resolved himself to show Class and Ability Users that he was just as good, if not better, than them.
"Thanks for the information Sasha, I appreciate it." Amon smiled as he walked out of the kitchen. Amon was starting to see Sasha and the others of the SS class as his comrades in arms when against the Class and Ability Users. But apart from that, they were his rivals and he had to show them some kind of respect.
Amon wondered if Jax was gonna be just as competitive as him.
As they both re-entered the living room, everyone was messing about with their elements a bit more. Michael was running and stopping instantly, or running at his max speed and then making impossible turns, showing his control over his Velocity and Inertia Affinities.
Julia was messing about with balls of fire and ice, rotating them around her. Fae was doing the same but with Water and Earth balls.
Lilith had snakes of black mist slithering around the vicinity of her body, along with lightning snakes doing the same thing. All 4 of them were showing superb levels of control of their element and Sasha seemed to think they were ready for the next thing.
"Which ones of you are focusing on physical combat and which ones want to be mages?" Sasha asked while pointing at one sofa marking it as the physical side and the other at another sofa marking it as mage.
Amon, Fae, and Michael went to the warrior side and Lilith and Julia went over to the Mage side. "Okay, good. Follow me." Sasha walked to the door to exit the house.
Amon and the others hurriedly walked after her, Julia asked Sasha on the way "Where are we going and what are we gonna do there?" Julia was confused, shouldn't they have focused on magic for a bit longer?
"Well, for the Warriors we're getting them their weapons and then we'll let them pick some martial arts they want. For you Mages, we'll get you your Mage Gloves and then let you pick out some books on your elements/affinities for you to research and create attacks of your own with the notes in the books as the foundation." Sasha said matter-of-factly as she carried on walking.
Amon's eyes lit up at the mention of weapons and martial arts, he was suddenly very excitable about where they were going and got incredibly energetic. Michael was the same, while Lilith, Fae, and Julia just looked at the two of them like they were little kids who were going to get some candy.
Before long they got to the building they were first visiting, the Storage Room.

Note: Slight edits to early chapters (and removal of one chapter - previously chapter 2) have been made 2/2/21 The city, my city, had once been alive in a way that was hard to describe. Thriving, active, hopeful. Vibrant. But life, as I had come to learn, sometimes possesses only the most tenuous of grasps. Finally, in the end, it became my city - mine alone. I was, after all, the only one left. Worse, it was entirely my fault. There was red in my ledger that could never be wiped clean. Not while I still lived, anyway. This story follows Eran, a man who became the opposite of everything he had ever wanted to be; in a world where superpowers began to appear in a rare few, his lack of control over his own power relegated him to the role of a terrible villain - the Reaper, named so for the countless lives that he absorbed and made his own, each only furthering his deadly lack of control. Gone mad with guilt and isolation, he strove for a single heroic act - his own demise. Death was less permanent than he hoped. Centuries later, he woke to a changed world and in a body not his own. Unfortunately, his power came with him. Yet this time, things would be different. This time, he had a chance to bring it under control. He could never truly make up for the things he had done; he could never achieve redemption. That wouldn't stop him from trying to be a hero.

P.A.R.A.D.O.X. PROJECT: Aeon Genesis
The first project focusing on four protagonists within the same world set around fictional 14th-century Europe.This is the first P.A.R.A.D.O.X. PROJECT focusing on 3 (+1) protagonists within the same world set around fictional 14th-century-esque Europe. Each story has its own protagonists (Male or Female Lead), genres (mainly Western Fantasy), and can be read as a standalone. Status: OngoingUpdate(s) per week: 1Words per chapter: 3000 - 6000 *** ‘A human or not; a king or a servant; hope or despair; a hero or a villain.’ Depending on one's perspective and how each story portrays, one will view an individual or a group as evil or virtuous. Because of that, it depends on the reader and listener to believe which one is the truth. More people read and trust multiple (trusted?) sources that either complement or contradict one another. The contradiction becomes the source of debates between those who believe and those who don’t. From that difference in belief, two groups appear: The Majority and The Minority. The majority, having more people, suppress the minorities’ beliefs, claiming theirs, the majorities’, to be the truth. However, the majority are not only composed solely of those who share the same belief but also those who know the truth but afraid to admit it. They have to keep quiet and turn a blind eye for their safety. The majority had to submit to those with power and authority. With the majority under control, those with power and authority can create, manipulate, and/or fabricate truth and lies by force. The reason was for one’s or group’s personal benefits. In the end, there is no such thing as ‘absolute truth’; only sugar-coated lies created by the top. Don’t believe me? It is up to you to decide. Go and read it yourself.
