Chapter 71: Preparation Project
Chapter 71: Preparation Project
It may not be much but there was a thing about Nigeria that made it incredibly sweet to stay in if one had money. Of course, you would recieve nearly the same recognition in other
countries.
However, here in Nigeria. You are immediately seen in a different light, people will equate you to almost a god depending on how you use your wealth.
That recognition was here, he hadn't even done much and yet the town recognized him. Well he understand that they wanted to use him to better their town but he was still recognized.
"Nous, scan the town, begin fortification, title it, The Preparation Project" David said as the smile slowly faded.
Depending on what the event will be, his powers may be limited. He may be able to save all of humanity but that is impossible.
He couldn't even edit the Event, he could identify it but no information appears but somehow he knew.
XXXXXX
Name: Event (Terra/Earth)
Description:
Nil
Cost: A life for all
XXXXXXX
Having better understanding of his ability and Authority meant that he could now do more.
Who said that he could only edit, physical things? No one. Who said he could only edit things that happen now?
He was the Editor, it didn't matter of it was the past, present or future. He had authority and power of it all.
[Sir, are you sure you want to use the town?]
"Is there a reason, I shouldn't use it?"
[None really but wouldn't the mountain itself be better]
"It is but I think a literal existing town would be better and cheaper"
[Of course] Nous replied
"Did you just roll your eyes at me?"
[I don't have eyes, sir]
"Oh.. No wait, you do, in that hologram form of yours" David argued
They argued till he returned back to the house. Fadila was not home as she still needed to be present even while the employee training was going on.
Nous was handling the main part but Fadila was still CEO of the Company, she had to be there not just for their training but also for any other appointments.
A quiet forest, this has always been a bad omen from even the ancient times till now. It was eery and disturbing however within this forest stood a man.
Dressing in combat gear similar to those popularly worn by a Special Military/Police Unit. The man stood unwavering as he stared ahead.
"You shouldn't be here" the man suddenly spoke
"With all the wards and formations in place, of course I shouldn't be here but here I am" Another voice replied
"This is sacred grounds, only the worthy shall transverse it"
"Sacred?... Last time I was here, I remember there being a blood river flowing through here, It wasn't your blood now, was it?"
"You are not worthy!" the man shouted before lounging forward
A silvery aura coated his body as a Sword materialized in his hands.
"Humans, your kind never changes" the voice said before even more silence reigned within the forest.
However, footsteps could be heard as it's owner continued forward. Screams were heard as uneasy presence of death was felt by all within the area.
"I never knew it would be this easy to get here" The voice said as it's owner chanced upon an enclosed space.
It was a large cave system, however no matter how one looked at it, there was no structure holding it up but it still stood and held up the mountain above it.
"You have gotten strong" a new voice spoke but it sounded much older
"And you're still alive? I thought Nymh immortality only lasted only while her ladyship is alive"
"If you think that then you have absolutely no knowledge of what you are doing" the older voice said
"Nah, i'll figure it out after i'm done"
"Then I pray your soul finds rest soon" the older voice spoke before a small explosion was heard.
"That wouldn't kill me" the younger voice spoke finally revealing its owner.
A young man in what looked like normal clothing, he looked to be of Asian descent however it was difficult to pinpoint which location exactly.
In his hand was a long sword, a blade whose edges shone brightly as it reflected the dim moonlight being let into the cave.
"I wasn't aiming to kill you" the older voice spoke as rumbling was heard.
Several huge boulders began falling off the mountain side and soon the cave entrance was covered up.
"As expected of a Sect Master, you guys are too smart for your age" The young man said as he
chuckled
Walking out of the shadows and into the light, the older man could seen, also of Asian
descent.
His face full of well aged hair and dressed in a set of robes one would expect from an ancient society.
"And you are too young and ignorant" The older man replied before suddenly producing a spear from nowhere.
Taking a stance and ready for combat, his aura changed as an overwhelming amount of heat began to fill the cave. A weird illusionary fire could be seen surrounding him.
"I see, then I will make you embrace the new age" The young man said before suddenly sinking into the Earth.
"!!"
"I am beyond you, your meagre divine strength is nothing compared to mine" his voice was still heard even if he was nowhere to be seen
"Then face me like a man and stop running like a coward" the older man shouted but still
remained vigilant as ever.
"Who told you I am a man?" the young man's voice came again.
*Clang!*
Weapons clashed as the older man was sent flying back but quickly regained his balance as he immediately rushed forward to attack his opponent.
Flames coated his spear and with speed unrivaled, he jumped high and cut down his opponent intent on ending the fight.
His spear created an arc of flames in the air before cutting into his opponent, cutting the... man? In half. The spear traveled through his body with ease and cauterized every wound.
"Are you done?" the young man asked before suddenly turning to dust and reappearing a
meter away.
"You really have gotten stronger" the Sect Master said as he got ready for an attack.
"Of course I have" the young man said as his voice slowly turned feminine.
His appearance changed as well to look more feminine, the clothes around her changed into a
set of garments fit for a noble lady of ancient times.
