Chapter 21: Memories, Questions and Answer
The mysterious man maintained a distance of twenty-four meters, nothing more and nothing less with Al'ravee. Al'ravee followed the man until they reached the gate of the graveyard yard. He was finally able to walk closer to the man when the other party stood still. "Here, let's take a seat shall we?" The man said, motioning to the white bench a few meters away from them.Al'ravee didn't say anything, he had a feeling that this man wasn't going to answer his questions if they didn't sit down. He and the mysterious man sat quietly on the bench as they watched cars pass by at incredible speed. Not a lot of people were willing to drive by a graveyard at leisure speed.Finally, Al'ravee could no longer take the silence, he had questions and he needed answers now. "What is going on? Am I not supposed to be dead." Al'ravee let out."Of course not, you are a god Al'ravee, gods don't die from aging. We are eternal from birth." Said the mysterious man.Al'ravee looked at the man with a look t

Chapter 22: Emotions
"If you want to know about anything beyond that, you first have to become strong enough because even I have never seen anyone stronger than your parents."It took Al'ravee a moment to understand what Ris had just said. When he asked how strong gods could possibly get, he was doing so from the perspective of a mortal. He wasn't expecting there to be an actual power ranking and one that seemed a bit short at that."it doesn't seem like a hassle to reach the level of my parents," Al'ravee said skeptically.Ris turned his head away from the sky to look at the hundred-year-old man in shock like he had just seen an alien for the first time. " pfft... no... Hahaha... you did not just say... hahahahaaaaaaaa..." Ris continued laughing in a way that seemed forced yet genuine enough that Al'ravee could see tears in his sky-blue eyes.Al'ravee couldn't help but feel that what he said was very embarrassing even if he didn't know why. From how this familiar yet unfamiliar Ris was reacting, what he s

Chapter 23: Unsettled Heart
Inside one of the rooms of a busy hospital, a very comfy-looking bed was set right next to a machine that the humans of planet Green Cloud called a heart monitor.Sitting on the bed, a seventy-year-old-looking woman was in the middle of talking excitedly with the group of people surrounding her. Above her head were floating balloons, all of them having been imprinted with planet Green Clouds language version of 'Happy Birthday 'The beautiful smile on her face seemed to make the white hospital room brighten up, anyone who passed would most likely wonder what could make such a wonderful-looking old lady so happy.With her smile being kind of contagious, the visitors standing in the room also gave out beaming smiles. All in all, everyone here was happy to be with this woman.Among the eighth men and women inside, one of the men stepped forward to give the old lady a gift. He had previously been blocking the old lady's view of the entrance door but as he moved out of the way, she was able

Chapter 24: Criminal
"There's no good or bad my friend. I once believed that the world was divided into parts of black and white, but the truth is that it's made up of different shades of grey. I think that should simplify things for you."Those were the same words Murry, his good friend, had said to him after he watched Ivan get electrocuted to death. And these were the same words he said to the bloodied man tied to an armless metal chair in front of him.With fresh bloody gashes all over his naked torso, one could only imagine the amount of pain it caused just by looking at them. With great effort, the bloody tied-up man raised his head to stare at the tall man in a black tight-fitting suit. "*sniff* p-please, let me go, I beg of you." He pleaded in a weak voice.Al'ravee shook his head and smiled. "That philosophy has been in my mind for a long time, even though I didn't like it at first." He paused to look up, he couldn't let the man see the tears in his eyes "I believed that there should be good and

Chapter 25: Martial Arts
“I don't have an actual personality.'Multiple times, on many occasions, different people have said it.They've said that I don't have a personality. What does that mean? is it true? maybe. I mean, if you look at my past records.I've done some things that I never knew I could do. As soon as the people watching my children confirmed that they were dead, I just let go.Did I love Eva?, what would she say if she knew all the things I've done? And would I even defend myself? What about Ivan, he would probably call me a hypocrite. My actions must be justifiable, I need to justify them, or not.The people I killed, yes, killing is just a means to an end. But the orphanage, I killed those children because I wanted to know how it feels to be the worst criminal. Was I right, no, my parents decide what is right or wrong for these people, that does not apply to me.What about those ladies I raped, in my defense, all of them were in my black book... still. *sigh* Ahh! Guilt is the most useless fe

Chapter 26: Monster
"Master Ravee, what is the meaning of this?"One of the men in black asked what was on everyone's mind. These people were all the elite members called the Man Hunters. Any of them would be able to take care of a council member if paid enough.Al'ravee set his now cold gaze on the lad who had just spoken. Forgive me..." He started as he let go of the bloody heart. "...I know how much he meant to you all, I was there when he watched you grow up, as he cared for you and trained you. He trained you well, he also trained me.He and I had a grudge. He's the only one still alive from rest *sigh*, He might have forgotten, but I didn't, I never forget. But I'm also grateful, he led me on my path, so I gave him a death that was less painful than what I wanted.You would have found out anyway, so I killed him today on our annual retreat. Now, avenge him while you still can."Al'ravee said nothing more. Brushing the lower part of the robe aside, he took a firm step forward that made all the Man H

Chapter 27: Message
Al'ravee had always wanted to be considered to be one of the most knowledgeable people in the world. Imagine being asked a question and always having an answer.A normal person obviously cannot try to learn everything because of their limited lifespan and other life goals. Al'ravee could do it but he doubted if he had the time to finish it. Given the fact that new discoveries were happening every year, he decided to just indulge himself in soaking as much knowledge as possible until his parents intervened.At that point, money held little value to him, no, it held no value at all. Now he runs an entire continent with the largest military force in the world. It would be hard for him to want anything and not get it, very hard. So it wasn't too difficult to do what he was about to do.Of course, he lacked the right leadership skills to rule such a nation but with the help of some loyal but ambitious officials as well as the latest CCAI (Central Collective Artificial Intelligence), it was

Chapter 28:. Knowledge
Al'ravee currently found himself in an empty black room. A couple of files, arranged neatly, were placed in front of him.This pod was employed in the current time for playing games but Al'ravee had seen it as a way to speed up the last thing on his to-do list. This pod was going to load large amounts of information at a terrifying speed into his brain. No normal human would be able to experience this without entering a permanent vegetable state later on.To avoid interruptions, Al'ravee made sure that the pods' body was made of the toughest alloys and could only be opened from the inside. The glass panel in front of his face happened to be the toughest material of the entire pod.He stretched out his hand to touch the file to the far left. [Languages]Al'ravee shook his head, for personal reasons, he was not willing to learn any more languages of planet Green Cloud. He moved to the next.[Fictional Stories]It seemed he would be starting with fictional stories. With a mental suggesti

Chapter 29: The Pathfinder
Just when he was worried that the object was not working, his entire being, both soul and body were overwhelmed by a horrifying pain.Then everything went black.Al'ravee found himself in black space again. The difference was that the previous one looked real but was a virtual simulation. this black space was the real deal.'What do I do?' Al'ravee thought to himself. There was nothing in front of him, he didn't even understand what exactly this pathfinder was supposed to be doing.*SWOOSH*Shooting stars. That's what Al'ravee started seeing. Stars shot around in a messy order, some of them shot up, some shot down, and others went either left or right. Some stars were coming from both his back and front.As they drew closer leaving colorful streaks behind, they all slowed down a few meters away from him. Looking around, the previously black empty space was now filled with head-sized balls of light of different colors.On a closer look, these were not actually balls of light but differ

Chapter 30: Life Prolonging Machine?
A deep golden glow flashed above the clouds followed by a familiar monotone voice "Well then, I better get ready."#######When researchers and doctors arrived to investigate what was happening, they found nothing wrong with the sleeping citizens. Still, they abstained from giving them any drugs because no one knew if these people would be able to pay for it.Of course, they also wanted to prevent making the unknown situation worse.Some of the victims soon began waking up with fear in their eyes. A few of them even woke up screaming like they had gone mad.The doctors managed to suppress them eventually and were able to question them on what they had experienced before passing out."... I wanted to move but anytime I thought of moving, I felt a fear so suffocating that it was similar to being stared at by multiple hungry wolves. It felt like death was what awaited me if I even dared to breathe."That was the description an old man gave to a doctor when he awoke from his passed-out sta
