Lost power

The sun is shining, and the air is fresh, birds chirping as a scream of anger is heard from a distance away.

"DAMN IT!" a long shout from a man called Akia, and he starts punching the ground as he keeps shouting damn it repeatedly.

After a while he calms down, and he stands up, as he walks slowly Akia conveniently starts talking about the events that happened before the outburst.

(Flashback.)

It cuts to Akia, standing on the ground facing a godly being created by the Mana surrounding Akia when he achieved true power after 10 non-stop years of work as the beings aura Shoots out everywhere.

"So this is the thing that generated because of my training?" Akia extends his hand, but it gets stabbed by a sword from the Being and causing Akia to stagger.

It doesn't hold for a minute and pulls out the sword stuck to Akia's hand and continues striking.

Akia manages to Dodge one and shoot out a lightning beam to send the being far for now to let him heal.

"That should buy me a minute to spare" as he pulled out some healing Vials, but before he could take a sip, the being zooms back to Akia.

But it doesn't stab or strike, instead it extends its hand and six magic rings surround Akia, and it starts draining his power little by little, and Akia starts screaming of pain until.

The being holds Six crystals of different color and Akia falls to the ground, the impact knocking him out cold.

And the divine being flies away and Akia is left in the forest unconscious.

(Flashback Over.)

"That, Thing, what did he even do to me?" as he clenched his fist in the air. But a simple thought popped in his head

"Wait if I recall, that thing held 6 crystals after I felt weak and fell down" but he quickly made a conclusion in his head.

"Hold up, did that THING steal my power?!" Akia shouted with anger and brainstormed ideas on where it could've put it

He gets up and Pat's off the dust on his clothing and walks, but gets lost quickly as he realized he hasn't learned how to navigate without a map.

"Well shoot." Akia said, until he heard a random sound below him, he looked down and saw a slime looking at him curiously

The slime looked at him, and without warning lunged at his head trying to strangle him.

Akia tried to take the slime off and the attempt failed, so he smashed his head against a tree knocking the slime off as he gasped.

"My God what did I do to you?!" before the slime could regain its senses, Akia smashed his shoe killing the slime, and more stomps for good measure.

With all this stalling Akia has done he just started running to nowhere hoping to some buildings.

(1 hour later.)

After what is seems like forever, he saw a familiar looking clock tower in the distance.

"That's the clock tower for kingdoms isn't it!?" Akia then started trying to find the entrance, and when he found it he saw two guards standing in the entrance gate.

"Well, standard security protocol" he shrugged walking to the guards they said as they blocked the entrance "Halt!, state your business"

"The name is Akia, and I'm here to simply enter the capital?" He said not knowing the name of the kingdom, "Hm very well then, you may enter" the knights said in unison as they allowed Akia enter.

As he walked inside the kingdom it's high and vibrant everything looking perfect and happy.

"huh, neat" Walking slowly Akia sees a convenient map of the place with its name.

"Zenithal's Kingdom, Kinda weird sounding but okay," and after some more looking he found a building he needed for gold.

(12 minutes later.)

Akia opens the door, and is greeted with a chair, he dodges out of instinct but also is kind of shocked as a voice speaks to him.

"I TOLD YOU I'LL GET THE MONEY LATER" a man shouts with rage as he picks up another chair.

"Wait wait wait!, I'm not a collector!" Akia spoke not trying to get hurt from the guy.

"You ain't?" the guy said slowly lowering the chair he was going to throw at Akia.

"Yes!, I'm just trying to get a job here" He said still on guard but goes outside and gives the guy back the chair he threw.

"Well, if you say that why are you trying to get a job here?" The guy grabbing the chair Akia grabbed from the outside and placing it in its original place.

Akia sighs and then he says "I just need some money, I just got here, and I have some experience in combat"

"Well of you put it that way" the guy extends his hand out as a sign of a handshake

"You're hired, the names Reginald" He says with a smile

Akia accepts the handshake from Reginald with confirmation and says.

"Well my name is Akia" he said also with a smirk on his face

"Welcome to the Anomaly Exterminators, your first job starts tomorrow early in the morning, by the way don't worry, I'll book you an Inn"
