Why didn't you save him Loy. He was right there, right in front of you standing with a mangled arm and a leg, baring bone that had torn through the skin. That boy was utterly hopeless, but you, you were not, you chose to stay down laying on the cold hard floor watching as he sacrificed himself to kill the demon. Your ability could have saved him Loy, but why didn't it. Do you want to know?
This voice had passed through my mind countless times since the incident, a death that i could have stopped, what is it talking about? My ability could have saved him? How? My ability is simply, too see the mana circulations of my target and with extra focus i can focus on my entire surrounding, like in the battle with the code four, but this voice keeps telling me i could have saved Shin with my ability? My innate ability hasn't awoken yet. Innate abilities in my family don't awaken till we are in our early twenties, although Roy was an exception awakening his at the age of six.
Intangible, an ability that makes the user untouchable and have zero pressence, but that's not all, when he became twelve, once again he unlocked another innate ability, sonic speed he says it's called, an ability that allows for the user to increase their max speed by double for every beat of their heart and at the rate Roy's going he'll have another innate ability by next year, which will be the second rarest case amongst humanity, although having two innate abilities is rare it's not completly impossible for it to happen, with approximately one in every one million people having a second innate ability. But the Monarch has awoken ten innate abilities, which eight of the original innate abilites are still yet to be known to the rest of the units as well as society as a whole, but the most terrifying part is that the Monarch can copy innate abilities as long as they the Monarch has enough mana to account for the usage of the innate ability.
=|BACK AT HQ|=
"Shin really wasn't able to make it huh, i wonder if his brother will be alright." the chief says quietly to himself.
"Chief are you here?" one of the operating ladies asks.
"Eigh?... What're you doing here." The chief asks Eigh.
"I'm going to be straight with you chief, why were we sent on a suicide mission?" Eigh frustratingly questions
"A suicide mission? Don't be ridiculous, we had no indications that a demon would show up let alone evolve into a code four in a matter of minutes, think about where we, at the HQ stand amongst this mess, losing Shin, one of our most promising future soldiers hits us hard too."
"It would have been fine if you had let me use my innate ability, but no, you all say it's too dangerous. What's dangerous about an ability that could destroy the enemy."
'I'll tell you one day, but right now it's better you don't know why we sealed it. In truth it's all the Monarchs doing, so engrossed in power that anyone else who has astounishing power with a chance of rivalling the Monarch's own, immediatly has their own power sealed or weakened'
"I'll tell you one day Eigh, why your power was sealed and weakened."
"Weakened or not i can still use it."
"You can still use it you say? That absolutley cannot be right, your ability was not only sealed but weakened by none other than the Monarch themself, so natrually you shouldn't be able to use an ounce of it."
"I'm just guessing here, but the fight with the demon might be what weakened the seal, although even without the seal being weakened i could still simply enter my dimension."
"Hold on. Dimension you say?."
"Well i've discovered that my innate ability is very strange. One: I can travel to a dimension called the trinity, this dimension is my own. Two: anyone or anything i transport to my dimension gives me the right to it, say i transport you to the dimension, any knowledge you have, i now have access to, any ability you have i have access to also and any ill intent aimed towards me with instead add to the strength my dimension gives me. Three: I can travel to other dimensions as well and lastly, four: everyone has their own dimension that they probably don't have the ability to access, this dimension acts as their life force and houses the persons being."
"Oh god Eigh, oh no this is terrible, I see why your ability was weakened AND sealed, it's dangerous, too dangerous, you're lucky the Monarch let you off with only a seal and a weakening."
A monstrous bell had rung, and before we knew it a portal was opening up infront of us, looking at the black edging of the portal sent shivers down my back. Crumbling to my knees, my eyes began to blur as i looked over at chief, he was being held back while screaming at a person with long black hair and another who had short white hair. I pierced the hard floor with my sword attempting to get up, the attempt was short lasted as I fell down almost instantly before fading out.
I awoke to a strange aura infront of me, a pink aura. It reached a hand out to me, grabbing a hold of this hand i pull myself up, then a voice appeared in my mind, I couldn't hear anything but it was like the meaning was implanted in my brain, it said, "you're not ready yet, the time is still yet to come." I'm not ready yet? The only thing i'm not ready for is to face the Monarch.
The Monarch got their name from the attack of bourne, the country was left in ruins, ninety percent of the countries soldiers were slaughtered and sixty percent of the citizens were killed due to collateral damage caused by surrounding battles. It was tragic, it was bad enough for the gods to step in and stop the battle, humans stood no possible chance against the demons, they were just obsolete beings, fodder for these demons to gain power.
