Nazo- Chapter ONE

Dengenessia is said to be the most powerful country in the world of Nazo. In the Kyuren Forest in
the north of Dengenessia, A boy with a cheerful look on his face is hunting harpamis (A bird like
creature with half of its body looks like some other animal). The boy has short hair and of medium
height and slender figure, yes you can call him just a regular boy. The only thing that makes him
stand out is a scar on the left side of his face just past the left eye. He has a good skill on handling
the dagger. The boy’s name is Hugo Arashi. Arashi being the clan name. Oh!! I forgot to describe
the rules and the outlines of Dengenessia.
Dengenessia is a huge country mainly divided in three parts and each part is controlled by a guild.
There are three guilds in total:
-The Physics Guild: Mainly masters of physical fighting style but they can still use roika (An aura
which emits from the body of the humans in Nazo. Roika can be of different attributes e.g. Fire,
Water, Earth, etc.), but they can only use the fire attribute and the earth attribute on a very high
level. The people in the physics guild are a dedicated bunch, they follows the law and order of the
country and will punish anyone who does not follow.
-The Shadow Guild: Mainly masters of stealth fighting and in super fast offensive style, they can
only use the wind or air attribute roika. They are responsible for the information distribution and
manufacturing food in the whole country.
-The Spirits Guild: Mainly masters of roika style fighting, they can use all kinds of attributes of roika.
They are the storehouse of knowledge and intelligence of the country. They take part in making
major decisions and also control the economy of the country.
Each guild contains many clans, so one can say that the guilds are made up of clans. For example,
the shadow guild is made up of 32 clans and the master of the guild is named Kagen Inumaka and
the head of the clan Arashi clan is Shin Arashi, who is also the father of Hugo. He was recently
announced as the next master of the Shadow Guild, if only the current Raisho of the guild didn’t
come back.
The boy has finished cutting the harpamis and extracting the roika from it, which can be used to
power different mechanical stuffs. He picks up the daggers and starts to walk back to his house. He
always gets depressed walking this path as it reminds him of the pain he feels through his body,
being the only son of the clan head, naturally the whole clan’s responsibility will soon come over
him, but he isn’t up to it, he doesn’t have any talent on leading or managing stuffs and he doesn’t
even likes it thinking about his past.
The rain falls upon him as he stares down to the distant road, which seemed to go down forever. It
was the same as that day. The day everything changed. He was looking at a door, wondering what
is inside it; he thought he should go ask his father. He heads for the clan head room. He listens in:
Clan Member A: That was five generations ago, If we look at the level of your roika and level of his
roika, it clearly indicates that he is also the same.
Shin: Yes, I know but still there is no need to kill someone off based on predictions and there is
also a chance we might discover something about the phenomenon.
Clan Member B: Do I smell a hint of parental love on those words of yours? Well still if I logically
think about it, it might be true but still it makes us uneasy to just think about what will happen if
what he predicted actually came true.
Hearing this he wasn’t sure what they were talking about. He felt his vision getting foggy. He
smiles, he is walking up to that door he saw before. He had everything a man wants at that age,
money, political power, charisma, nice parents who loves him dearly. They were the perfect
parents one could wish for but to him it was too peaceful, he embraced the dark side of that door
without any kind of hesitation. It was natural to him to embrace the dark side and that was the
start of it all. He kept on remembering the past more and more.
Servant: Hugo-sama, Shin-sama is calling you.
He is snapped back to reality hearing the servant’s voice. He reached his house.
Hugo: I will be right there.
Hugo goes back to his house and also the clan house.
Shin with a cheerful voice says to Hugo: Welcome back Hugo.
Hugo with his usual smug in his face, which is only visible when he is in this house or he is with his
family, answers: You sound almost happy for some reason oyaji(dad).
Here I should describe to you guys that in this part of Dengenessia people tends to add “sama, san,
dono, etc.” to the end of other people’s name when calling them as a sign of respect. If you are
confused you should check in with the culture of Japan for more information (LOL). Let’s continue
with the father-son conversation.
YEAR- BH 346
Shin with a cheerful expression answers: Hmm well may be because I was chosen to be the next
guild master.
Hugo with the usual smug: Oh really?
Shin: What’s with the no reaction?
Hugo: Well I am not sure if you can manage it.
Shin: What? You doubt your own father who is the head of the Arashi clan?
Hugo: That’s exactly why I doubt you. A stupid clan full of idiotic members, looking at all of you I
don’t know how you guys became one of the most powerful clan in the guild.
Shin with tears rolling down his face: I am sorry.
Hugo: *Sigh* Well don’t worry your son here will be sure to attend the St. Koten Tournament in
four years, I have been practicing hard for it.
Shin jumps up and hugs Hugo: That’s my son, I love you~~.
Hugo kicks him off: Though I have to win the Hachi Toname first though.
At that moment Hugo’s mom appears, Hugo runs up to his mom and hugs her while saying: Okachan(
mom) why the hell did you marry this weirdo?
Mom laughing: Well your dad was a very cool guy when he was young. He turned weirdo cause he
seems to love you very much hahaha.
Hugo: *sigh* Baka parents.

Birth of a Conscience- Chapter one

Chapter One
I am here, in this world. I do not know how I got here or who I am or what I am. I am just a
presence. I am not even an entity. I was handed down a power, a power or ability you might say of
perfect destruction. I can destroy anything or any amount of space on earth I like. For example,
the dustbin there, I just have to want it to get destroyed and it will, as you can see will get
destroyed by first going to get pushed from up and down and get all smashed up. I just have to
decide on how much I will destroy and it will get destroyed and strangely enough I could
understand everything about this world of humans. I could listen and understand every word they
say, it’s weird.
Here I am looking at the boy, who is playing cricket, a weird game of bat and ball, and I do not
what is so fun about it. I think I am attached to this boy for some reason. I follow him around all
day and if I listen closely I can hear his thoughts as well. It seems like he has come to a coaching
center to train himself to be a professional cricketer, it seems like he has a dream to be a
professional cricketer. I still do not know how people can find this so fun.
I see some people eating food and has a satisfying look on their faces. I wonder how it is like to eat
food, and they say it is tasty, which means the food has taste and that’s a sense for the humans
but I do not have that sense. All I can do is observe, I see the boy getting ready to go home and I
follow him.
For some reason he hates going to home, I am guessing he does not like his father at all, who is
pretty rough to him. He hates the facts that his child loves to play cricket, even though he is a
cricket fan himself. I neither can figure out how humans like that think nor I can hear his thinking
no matter how hard I try. The boy comes back home and tells his mother that he admitted himself
to a coaching center to learn cricket so that he can be a professional cricketer. His father hears it
and says “you cannot be a professional cricketer no matter how hard you try, so give up”. The boy
hearing that protests and says that he will keep trying until he can become one, hearing that his
father came threatening to him and takes his two hands and bends it weirdly in the wrong
direction I could clearly feel the pain for some reason, it hurt so bad that I screamed out. He
spread the boy’s ten finger on the floor and smashed them with the foot. The boy passes out from
the pain and in the morning he was taken to the hospital and was fixed up. He was depressed on a
very high level; I could rarely see his smile, which was the most beautiful thing I ever saw in this
world. It made me think that may be every human’s smile is beautiful. Now I think about how does
it feel to be depressed? It seems like he is not feeling anything, he is almost like me. So, what that
means, I am always depressed?
He kept on going on the school which is for some reason is visited by every kids in this world and
also some does not and they are looked down and pushed around or labeled as the trash of their
so called society, that “society” thing is also something I do not understand. The concept is too full
of holes but one thing I understand and that is humans work together to contribute on the
development of society, but I see people say that it is too corrupted I do not understand that
either.
The boy kept on attending the school without uttering a word in home or at school, it made me
feel weird, I think it is what people says feeling sad and that very moment I could feel something, I
could feel my hand appearing and it was just like those humans. I could move my two hands and it
was a simple thing to do. Both hands were just as long as it was in humans, but my hand had no
shoulder and it can’t be seen where it was joined. It’s like only two hands flying in the air. And
strangely enough I could feel some strange sensation, is this how human feels? Is this what it feels
like to feel the air? Can I touch fire now? Can I touch people now? I am dying to test these out. I
bring my hands in front of the boy and try to touch him. He showed zero reaction and all the
people around him also showed no reaction at all. I guess they cannot see me. Oh well I want to
try on touching other stuffs other than humans, let’s see if I can touch that tree over there. I bring
my hands over to the tree and passes right through. Oh well guess I cannot touch trees too. I rush
over to the boy’s house and head to the kitchen part and touch the fire. It passed through that too
but I could feel a weird sensation from it and I am sure I do not like it and I took away my hand
quickly from there. Is this what makes humans so scared of the fire?
