Outcast Hunter

When Grim was born, Molazar was resurrected by the Creator. He died a long time ago and find him suited for the job being a necromancer. Grim was raised in a normal neighborhood. Living with his mother and father until he reached the age of 18. His mother died and his father disappeared. He didn't had the time to mourn for his mother, because he was doing his best looking everywhere his father could possibly gone to. However, his father was nowhere to be found. And he hated him because of that. How could his father leave them when such a problem occurs.

On the other hand, Molazar was given the power to bring back the dead to life and he can make them obey anything he wants. Although, the creatures physical body was made of black smoke. He hunted the strongest creatures, travelling anywhere as long as there's life and land. From different monsters to powerful individuals. He'll fight them, kill them and make them his own if they pass his criteria..

Grim became an adventurer, who takes on hard ranks missions. His life revolves around hunting and clearing guild missions. Until he accepted another quest. He met the current Death. He learned all the truth from the current Death. With a goal in his mind, he welcomed Death's power and he carry on the will of the past owner of the power and the title. He met Molazar a long time ago. The two immediately knew that they were enemies. Molazar fought Grim, using thousands of his summons. He was currently alone that time they had their first encounter against each other. He alone fought the thousand summons. He took out his scythe, reaping off Molazar's summons. The summons that has been reaped by the scythe stayed dead. From a thousand, the number of the summons greatly decreased as Grim continued reaping them off, putting them to rest.

Molazar was eager to kill Grim at first, completely underestimating his enemy. He had lost hundreds of his summons and he couldn't summon them anymore. He was pushed to the edge, he brought back his summons and didn't let himself lose another soul. He backed off, looking for an opening to turn the tables on Grim. He cast an attack spell. Amplified by his items, the skill took off directly to Grim. He smirked when he saw his enemy didn't made a move. Grim mumbled and a barrier was formed, completely extinguishing Molazar's skill. He cast multiple magic circles and showered him with dark magic.

Elegantly, Grim dodged the magic. He leaped from rock to rock, neutralizing some of the skills when he couldn't avoid it. He swung his scythe and a black slash made of magic went to Molazar's location, who also cast a magic barrier, blocking off his attack. Both came to a halt. They were glaring at each other, waiting for each others next movements. Grim eased off, he know that their fight was a futile one. They won't be able to kill each other based on his observations. He decided no to fight him any longer. However, Molazar does not like the idea of having a truce. He wants to continue and see it to the end. Who will prevail and and who will stay loser. Though Grim was quick, he used a gate to teleport back home.

Molazar was furious at Grim. He couldn't believe such a coward exist. He will forever remember the day that a prey had escaped him and will continue in hunting Grim even if he have to spend the rest of his life looking for him. Everything wasn't for naught. The two would have an encounter from different worlds and Molazar would instigate an attack. Grim would fought back at first, but as times passed by, he got bored of fighting Molazar.

Leo parried Grim's scythe with his sword. Jayce, Devi, Aophy and the others were sitting comfortably on a fluffy sofa. They were having some snacks Priscilla made. Grim was teaching Leo some skills he needs to learn before passing down Death's power to him. Leo clearly knew that Grim was going easy on him and weren't fighting him seriously. So, he decided to went all out and make Grim show his true power. He used 'Ghost', increasing his speed.

"I haven't told you why we're sparring, right?" Leo can't sense any malice from Grim's words nor ill intent. "What I'm going to teach you is how you can hide your intent to kill or harm your enemies."

Leo's mind was focused on making Grim fight him seriously. He wants him to show what's the real strength of Death. What's the extent of his power. He wants to experience all of it because, it will be their last meeting. His next attacks were too obvious, Grim could see and sensed that he was too eager to land his attacks. Grim unleashed three vertical magic slash. Leo had already moved to Grim's back before Grim used his skill. With two options, one was he could block it and the other was he could just switch with his clone and completely dodge the attack.

Leo chose to switch with his clone. Unknowingly, Grim predicted that Leo would choose to used his skill. He threw another horizontal magic. Leo won't be able to dodge, and if he block the skill, Grim would be given an opening. Well, there's no helping it. Leo thought that it was just a simple magical strike. But when his sword connected to the skill, he felt that there was so much power put in it. He used his sword, tighten his grip around it and forcefully pushed the skill back to Grim. He was expecting for the system to copy and have Grim's skill ready. However, it wasn't Grim's skill but the scythe's, so the system couldn't copy it.

"Good." Grim neutralized his scythe's skill with the same scythe's skill. "Your muscles all tensed up." Grim was already behind Leo. He was examining Leo's flaws and pointing them out. "You should always be calm and collected. Agitation leads to nowhere but lose."
