NOVEL NEXT Chapter 3: Z-Mon's
Shiebe stood there as the dark clouds started to disappear revealing the sunlight
???: Shiebe!!
Shiebe's father Xeno ran towards the scene it seemed like he had just returned from his errand and he wasn't alone.
Xeno checked Shiebe's body head to toe to make sure he was okay. Then he turned his eye to the corpse on the floor.
Xeno: A Z-Mon?!.. How the hell did it get in here.. wait Shiebe did you cause that explosion.
Shiebe nodded his head not knowing the correct response to give afraid it would anger his father.
Xeno stayed quiet for a moment then smiled
Xeno: Well I guess you are of that age to unlock your syreum. I'm just a bit jealous that you were able to use it this quickly and defeat a Z-Mon as well.
???: Looks like your boy might be stronger than you in the future.
A man stood next to Xeno. He looked a lot younger than him.
Xeno: Of course, he is my son after all.
Then Liliana and a few maids came outside.
Liliana: Honey what happened...Why..Why is there a Z-Mon corpse their.
Xeno: Our son is a prodigy that's what happened. He stopped this Z-Mon with his syreum.
Liliana looked at Shiebe, at first she was shocked but then she lifted him up.
Liliana: I knew that my little boy was a genius.
???: Excuse me sorry to break the mood but can we focus more on how the Z-Mon had gotten into the house.
Liliana: Oh Luni I didn't see you.
Luni: It's a pleasure to see you again.
Xeno: He's right. It should be impossible for a Z-Mon to enter a town like this when a barrier is put up.
A silence fell upon them. A barrier that had surrounded the entire town making it impossible for any Z-Mon to have entered into the room yet there was once in their back garden.
Shiebe: What's a Z-Mon?
Luni: Z-Mon's are ancient beings that have roamed on this earth for millions of years. They are the second oldest race in existence first being dragonfolk. Well I call them a race but they aren't they are more like monsters from another world. They are powerful being capable of speech and have intelligence. Their powers aren't the same as us but are just as powerful. A 1000 years ago a huge war had broken out between mankind and humans in which over 1 million people around the world had been killed by the Z-Mons. Fortunately, your ancestor had awakened to a powerful syreum which helped him defeat more than half of these Z-Mons.. Oh sorry that may have been a bit too advanced for a 3 year old. Basically they are bad monsters who want to kill everyone.
Shiebe: Oh I see.
Except he wasn't a 3 year old. He was a 15 year old in a 3 year old body. Shiebe had learnt of the monsters of this world however it was a bit different from the slimes and goblins that he had imagined would be in the world.
Xeno: Well lets all go inside and eat. I will call someone to clean this up.
They all headed inside the house for another meal. This time it was pretty lively from the meal Shiebe had earlier on.
Luni: And then I used my syreum and destroyed them all.
Shiebe: Wow Mr.Luni you sure are amazing.
Luni: I sure am kid but drop the Mr part am only 16 it makes me feel old.
-16 huh only 1 year older than me-
Luni: Oh yeah, the reason why I am here today was to help you write and speak but it seems like your already well educated.
Xeno: It seems like he is getting closer to entering the academy
Shiebe: Academy?
Luni: Henokai Academy. I currently attend there. Its an academy for those who are aiming to be the best of the best and join the council of hope.
Shiebe: Council of hope?
Luni: It's a group made of the strongest syreum users in the entire world. They are the symbol of hope in this world and protect us from the evil attacks of the Z-Mon's and council of despair. Oh and the council of despair are a group of power syreum users who believe that the Z-Mon's should rule the world and kill a lot of people.
Luni seemed a bit angry when he talked about the council of despair.
Shiebe: Umm is everything okay?
Luni: Yeah, its nothing I just need some fresh air that's all.
Luni headed out to the garden looking sad and depressed. Xeno then headed outside to look after Luni.
Liliana: Oh Luni after she left he never has been the same and just talking about them makes him angry.
Shiebe wondered what could have happened but felt tired after what had just happened. He also felt excited about what was to come after all he used a syreum and was able to kill a Z-Mon. It wasn't something your average 3 year could do even if he wasn't actually 3.
The next day had arrived and Shiebe was experimenting more and more with his syreum. From all his experiments he learnt that his syreum allowed him to make destructive spheres of energy. They can range from big to small depending on the amount of energy he puts in.
Luni would come from time to time to help give him lessons on how to manage his power and keep control.
These lessons had helped Shiebe become a D tier syreum user.
*******
-Winter-
3 years had passed. Shiebe was now 6 years old and was getting used to this world it was pretty obvious that he enjoyed this life much more compared to his previous life. He would spend most of his days training his syreum or reading more about the lore of this world.
It was very cold on that day much colder than usual.
A knock was heard from Shiebe's door and a maid entered the room.
"Young master, Your mother is requesting you down stairs"
"Alright"
He wasn't doing much anyways so he headed downstairs but was stopped by that ominous aura coming from that same room.
Even after all these years he had never dared to enter the room or even ask anyone else about it. Something about it told him that asking would lead him into a lot of trouble.
He continued to make his way to the main hall were his mother would usaully be.
Shiebe: Huh.. What's going on?
Shiebe's father and the maids were gathered around his mother. They have smiles on their faces and Xeno seemed to be crying tears of joy.
Xeno: SHIEEBE! YOUR MOTHER IS PREGNANT!!!
