The Rising of the Anomaly

Following planetary devastatation in the aftermath of WWIII, humanity is driven to the brink of extinction as the world is turned into a nuclear wasteland. In order to prevent humanity from being wiped out, a large enclosed dome called the Sanctuary was built during WWIII, saving a small fraction of the world's population. Overtime, the radiation results in the proliferation of powerful, vicious creatures known as Mutants. Humanity remained sheltered in the Sanctuary, with no way of defending themselves against these creatures, until... A few decades later, the worldwide radiation results in an evolution in all newly born humans, known as Paragons. Specifically, they are born with a special energy known as X-Factor Energy, or XFE for short, allowing them to potentially harness and manifest this energy into weapon-like forms, giving humanity a way to defend themselves against the rapidly multiplying Mutants. However, only about five percent of Paragons could successfully manifest their XFE, known as Prodigies. Non-Prodigies are sometimes derogatorily referred to as Duds. However, of the ninety-five percent of Paragons that fail to become Prodigies, there is a miniscule chance of them developing an ability different to those of the Prodigies. The rare few who achieve this are known as Anomalies. Kilzachs is a Paragon who, following a series of unfortunate incidents before getting disowned by his father for not turning out to be a Prodigy, finds himself hitting rock bottom through no fault of his own. Furious and outraged, he finds a glimmer of hope when he realizes that he is an Anomaly, and decides to keep it a secret. Armed with the ability to manipulate time and space, he sets out to prove all those who put him down wrong, by becoming an X-Warrior while maintaining that he's just a Dud with no abilities. Along the way, he does not hesitate to grab any opportunities for revenge...

Chapter 353 - Vine Invasion(Part 10)

Point-of-View: Altan Jargal

"How do you know which way is right, are we really heading in the right direction?" Inquired Iro in confusion, as we rushed through the streets.

"I'm using Echolocation, a new Technique Manifestation I came up with recently. It was a pain to master and makes me kinda dizzy the more I use it, but I can use it well enough that it's reliable now. However, I can only use it with Manifestation Surge, so I can't conserve as much XFE as I'd like to right now," I sighed wistfully. 

"You can do that? Track people through sound like a bat?" He responded in surprise. 

"Ohh, way better than a bat, I can assure you," I smirked wryly.

"That's really useful, this way we can make sure than we won't be left out of the action! So, where are the closest vines?" He inquired, as we shot past an area full of withered corpses.
