2024-10-29 19:42:56Blade looked up at the patient and calm head administrator in front of him.
Mr Tules stared right back at him and with a somewhat unsettled voice asked,"Mr Blade, have you made a decision?""Hmmm" Blade hummed in response like a father giving his son instructions"That's great then! What would you like? Our delivery services are very quick and your item would get to you in no less than a few minutes" Mr Tules offered with a stiff face."I would like numbers #0101, #0457, #1034, #00023 and a Felter villa" Blade declared exasperatedly.He would have picked something that was better suited to his magnetic gift,but that was if he even had one."Four numbers right? Oh! That should be five items including the Felter's villa….." All of a sudden Tules turned to him and asked,"#0101 is priced at 150 crimson black mags and that's a bit more than the amount you're about to redeem"This was actually true if you looked at the conversion rate for 10 Golden mags you would have 105 crimson mags.The extra 5 mags there is because when converting from a higher currency to a lower currency, the rate isn't stable but rises above the original conversion rate."Yeah I know, truthfully I didn't want to spend so much before but I had to" Blade relaxed as he took another sip of the tropical juice on the comfortable couch.'Is he crazy! He is supposed to take something worth 100 crimson mags at the very least but with these choices….' the assistant in the room was stumped. Then she looked at him again and shook her head.'What a sad thing for an eligible bachelor like him to go crazy after seeing the Seven Apex Alliance's catalog for the first time. He must have been shocked silly'When she looked at him next she looked at him with pity.Mr Tules looked at Blade strangely, this attitude couldn't be dictated by common sense but as a businessman who survived the magnetic eruption disaster, he could understand such an attitude and was able to still keep a straight face.After all, so many people also ran mad when they got exposed to the magnetic influence over long periods of time.It wasn't a surprise when he saw Blade keep cool and behave insane. After all, insanity could be wild or docile. He decided to abandon this waste of time until he is ready to redeem an item from the catalogue.Mr Tules stood up and was about to just make a little bit of pleasantries before leaving as his profession dictates when Blade spoke again,"Do you think i'm insane or I just don't know what I'm saying?" Blade asked with a curl of his lips."Truthfully speaking sir Blade, your actions are currently not in line with the money at your disposal"“Even if you do have some secret stash somewhere, I can bet it's not enough to cover for these items” Mr Tules explained patiently."The money at my disposal? Do you think this is all I have? Or you think my secret stash would come from all the money I have been keeping aside?" Blade raised an eyebrow."This should be all you have in this base I am very confident of my intelligence. I definitely can't be wrong sir Blade" Tules frowned."You are right at one thing sir Tules, this is all i have in this base that is... the inner section of the base" Blade gave a sly smile as he looked at the businessman in front of him.Honestly, he doesn't even need to give the man a clue any longer when he isn't dumb. It's too easy to figure it out.Mr Tules face straightened in surprise! It seems this guy wasn't insane! Rather he was calculating and chose to reveal this information at this time! But, why did he reveal it now? Whatever the reason that was, it could wait for now as it seemed this infamous Blade had some valuable collectibles hidden somewhere.After thinking for a bit, he sighed, looked up and then sighed again before he spoke,'Can I hold you accountable for your words sir Blade?" A hint of remorse and anticipation actually flashed across Tules face.Although, Blade couldn't understand why he would show such a reaction, he dismissed the thought from his mind after all he was here for the money."Of course! You can" Blade replied and added "The total cost of whatever things I'm going to buy would be covered by the amount of things that would be turned over”It was now that the assistant finally understood the gist of the matter somewhat.Shock!All she felt was shock right now, 'He never had just this but more of them' It was very likely given her Superior's reaction and question.'But why did he bring only one?' she questioned herself.'I see now, it's because it's too inconvenient for one to take such large amount of expensive things and….' As she understood the rest, a smile rested upon her beautiful lips.'What a sly man!' she thought.Mr Tules already understood all what was happening apart from the fact that he couldn't understand where Blade made such a huge discovery.'If I was the one who found such….' Mr Tules started thinking before shaking away the thought from his head. It definitely couldn't be him. He doesn't even have time to leave the base talk more of scavenging."How many magnetic sources are we talking about here Mr Blade?" Mr Tules asked"A total of forty five car wrecks" Blade answered back sharply. His aim was to give Me Tules a huge surprise and just as he thought, Mr Tules took a deep breath. This was shocking! Even for him, getting forty five car wrecks was a huge amount of fortune.Before he could recover from his shock, he noticed Blade's weird expression."But if I say that isn't all, would you believe me?" Blade asked with a wide smile on his face. He knew that he had just dropped a bomb and was very happy with himself. The look on Tules face was very satisfying.

For a businessman like Mr Tules, he just couldn't keep control of himself and blurted out his thoughts right away."How much does such intelligence cost?" right after that, he felt like slapping himself. He was very sure that with the kind of slyness that Blade had shown, he definitely wouldn't miss such an opportunity.And sure enough, Blade was thinking deeply already.So information could be traded also? Why did he not know all this while? Well, there has rarely been a golden collection appearing in the base since the last few years“So there is such a thing?' Blade said in surprise as if he did not notice that it was a mistake.Mr Tules instantly felt like someone was piercing his heart with a knife and twisting it. Why was this boy so annoying? "The information that would be sold would be rated according to the value of my next disclosure" Blade picked his words carefully.“So…what's your price?“ Mr Tules asked as he also sat down opposite Blade.Immediately, assistant who was i
Anti-Magnetic World Chapter 14: The magnetic devil
"Unfeeling haze ….." Blade corrected himself instinctively "If this is about the discoveries I made, I don't think I'm fit to be your young master" Blade said before feeling as if the name 'Unfeeling haze' was a little familiar. "Jane!" Unfeeling haze called out instantly and there was a stir in the dark corner. It suddenly looked as if darkness billowed out from that spot and disappeared.Before Blade could blink, all he saw was a dark shadow that flashed and stood behind the man named Unfeeling haze.A true mid tier superhuman!!!Blade was shocked! He never knew that he would one day see a mid tier superhuman in action and one so close to him at that.Although, he was not really sure if the person was still in the middle class of Superhumans but at least that class was leagues above his current level. Even the pressure emanating from her was enough to make his heart tremble."Hey! Look I was just joking…. Ha…Ha….Ha" Blade laughed drily as he fell back to his seat."I could be your y
Anti-Magnetic World Chapter 15: Let me tell you a story
When Blade snapped out of his thoughts, the magnetic devil was already in front of him.His aura was as calm as the sea .He looked just like a senior expert about to give a lecture to his disciple. His aura was as deep as the ocean and his eyes possessed that hint of magnetic quality. But instead of been scared, Blade just stared intently at him in awe"I can see that you've awakened" Unfeeling haze said leisurely.Blade was still feeling awed by his confidence and his gait when Unfeeling haze spoke but even by just speaking, his coolness had entered another level."Such magnificent pose!" Blade commented under his breath. Unfeeling haze who was a number of Classes higher than the current Blade, could hear him very clearly. He felt even more confident with his style and was about to continue his momentum with a killer line and cool accent when....."Yes of course! I am awake and I'm practically starving! " Blade said as he sat down on the grass resignedly. After all what was the use
Anti-Magnetic World Chapter 16: Unveiling secrets
Unfeeling haze resumed his narrative, seemingly unfazed by Blade's comic attitude. The neon-colored creature continued to dart around the garden, adding a whimsical touch to the storytelling ambiance."In the year 2990, five years before the pre-magnetic era ended. Your father was given a mission by the US government to investigate some strange pulses coming from the earth's core." Unfeeling haze began, his voice carrying a weight of history."As at that time, your father was a high ranking officer in the military with a lot of titles and awards under his belt.""Your father, Odion was already a famous man among the secret service as of then. He was known to have solved so many cases that were deemed impossible to solve." Unfeeling haze continued, weaving a tale of intrigue and espionage."He was just like a 28th century Sherlock Holmes reincarnated" Unfeeling hazestopped as he gathered his thoughts together but he soon regretted it."Sherlock Holmes?" Blade interrupted "who was that?"

"Your father, due to his immense reputation was made the head of this investigation unanimously by the alliance of seven governments. These were the same powers that are now banded together as the Seven Apex Alliance. The investigative mission started officially on the 12th of August 2992.""Your father was sent to the earth's core along five other great scientists of that time. Thomas Russells, Baldwin Spark, Sheffield Monde, Scott Long and Bittman Suja ""These great scientists went on such a dangerous mission to check on the state of the earth's core and find out why such strange pulses where being sent out "“Before the mission, your father had entrusted you into my hands. He asked me to take care of you and watch over you aaas you grew up. This was because, I was one of his bodyguards but all the same, we were very close friends due to so many life and death situations in the past.“"Five months later, when they got closer to the outer surface of the earth's core, there were repor

It was really a great news but first, how did his father survive?No, that shouldn't be the first question to ask.'My dad would say the best data is the evidence before you'So what evidence is before him?Physical format? That would be Numbstrike himself….. But how does this help the actual situation? He wondered.Oh great! Let's start from him, He is the best evidence and his words alone could serve as an evidence.'So, what were his exact words about dad's condition again?' Blade tried recalling the exact details of their conversation from his memories.Being a magnetic superhuman actually improves the brain's recalling function. That's why the people of the current era had better memories.He said 'He couldn't make it back' Blade finally recalled.This could mean so many things….But at least the clue should come from that sentence.'He couldn't make it back' is different from 'he couldn't make it'. One of them implied that he couldn't get back to a certain place while the other,

“You don't know?“ Unfeeling haze asked.“I don't know why don't you lecture me?“ Blade quipped“That would require a true cassanova like me” Unfeeling haze said proudly"So he's been alive and has been deep in the earth this past decade?" Blade changed the topic abruptly."Unfortunately, yes but there's no need to worry about food or water" Unfeeling haze quickly comforted him as he also didn't want to go back to that awkward topic."Oh, why's that?" Blade asked. But was already thinking 'He was alive but didn't contact me for the past ten years. Isn't that a bit irresponsible?'"Your father was the closest to the whole disaster thing and the only one who survived in that ship" Unfeeling haze finally revealed a shocking fact."Damn it! I was wondering why my calculations had been questioning his existence all this while, you actually refused to tell me that his ship was destroyed! You!....." Blade paused, looked around and when he saw the black shadow under a tree, kept quiet.Then in
Anti-Magnetic World Chapter 20: Predictions and possibilities
"Your dad truly doesn't resonate with the earth's magnetic field but, he can actually wield it independently. It's just that he wouldn't be able to use it as efficiently as the others who are practically connected to this world. This basically means they can draw on more energy from the earth's core to facilitate their own needs. Your father can also do the same but at minimal rates because he is considered foreign to this world. Untouchable you become linked to this world's magnetic core you wouldn't be able to draw on it's power for your use ""In fact, this is considered a good thing as those who are connected to this earth would share weal and woe together. This is due to the intricate link connecting their power to the earth. The relationship between this earth and their bodies is mutually beneficial""This means if the earth starts to weaken, the various superhumans would also begin to weaken too, only your father would remain unaffected.""It's because of his independent magneti

They entered into a bar that was fully automated. Just from the sign outside, you'd know that it was a fairly simple bar. The space inside the bar was rather large in comparison to it's appearance ffrom the outside which was highly unusual.Looking around in shock, Blade paused for a bit before asking excitedly, “Is this, is this…”With a feeling of pride, the ill tempered guy puffed his chest and replied to Blade's unspoken question. “Yes, it is. This is sace bending technology in its early stages. The more advanced type can actually fold a space of over five times the actual size of this place.““My God! I thought the alliance said that space bending technology wasn't developed yet?“ Blade said incredulously.“You don't expect the alliance to tell you some of the information it calls classified right? But still, that's why most of you first timers are always so shocked and curious about everything here. You guys behave pretty much like country bimpkins down here and it isn't that har

Walking down the now-filled streets of Blood Moon district, Blade felt much better after what Imelda had previously done. If she was going to be making fun of him whenever they were together then f**k it. Honestly, it looked a bit hilarious when he thought back on it, but right now? He felt like sh*t. Picking a random direction, he decided to observe the various shops in passing.The magnetic ornaments on the other streets were noticeably clustered and numerous. Hovering holographic reindeer, and magnetic orbs emitting a soft, colorful glow. Each ornament seemed to defy gravity, suspended in mid-air.Some restaurants served different Grades of superhuman delicacies and hotels catered to the needs of starved females of this era. Some females who couldn't find a guy to get down with flocked to different hotels and clubs to satisfy their needs. They were not that much down here though.

I'd live in BloodMoonn district the first chance I get! You just look that!“ Blade said as he pointed to the streets in general.Right before them was a festive Christmas street bathed in the warm glow of never-before-seen decorations. The air was filled with the scent of freshly fallen snow, and colorful holographic snowflakes danced around the street lamps. Levitating ornaments hung from the buildings, creating a mesmerizing display to every newcomer like Blade as they hovered in mid-air. The most amazing thing was the sidewalks!It was lined on both sides with interactive displays, where passersby could control the lights and colors with gestures. “Are you kidding me right now?“ Blade excitedly plastered himse

When they got outside, they hailed a maglev air car that lifted off in the direction of the Aeromag transit hubs. While staring out the window, with Imelda beside him, Blade broke the silence, “This city looks very beautiful, with the mix of technology and its unique culture. The Polaris dome that covers the city also serves the city as a source of light which gives it a futuristic and sci-fi blue glow. Overall, it's a place to escape from the harsh realities of the surface”“Unfortunately, this is just one of the bases of people who get transferred in and out to complete dangerous missions. Most of them do not even have the time to enjoy this luxury like a King would. Rather, it is meant to facilitate the convenience of these workaholic agents” Imelda explained.“Most of the outfits help to reduce the stress that intelligence collecting brings.

That?“ Blade quickly realized that he had interrupted her many times during their conversation and he in turn always ended up with half baked answers. “I'm terribly sorry, I'll try not to do that once more.““Much better, I would be expecting that you do not stop me from continuing my speech” Imelda said with satisfaction while her eyes curved up llike crescent moons which dictated some sort of happy triumph within. “Currently, I'm considered a Grade Four guardian in my clan and…” Imelda stared sharply at Blade before growling in frustration “No! no! no you won't!

I have every reason to believe that everything was arranged because I was also sent to get something from that underground tunnel” Instead of continuing with her sentennce, she diverged a bit.“I guessed as much because there is just a one percent chance of meeting your kind out there” Blade spoke.“I heard about Degoserinds but I know that they are rarely seen.

You never told me your name or even anything about you and now you're appearing as a female, any sane person would freak out at first!““Don't act like the righteous one here! You also didn't tell me your name until we got to this city and I heard it from Jane.““Still, you could have told me you were female!” Blade raised his hands up and brought it down to his sides in exasperation.“Why didn't you tell me that you entered the tunnel for a trial?““Who in their normal minds would talk to an enchanting Degoserind huh?

Blade awoke the next morning in the tranquil confines of his room, the events of the previous day still fresh in his mind. But as usual, he decides to just stare at the ceiling without any specific thought in mind. He was just thinking about random ridiculous things that he wouldn't remember anymore by the next minute.After some time, he stood up with a yawn, a rather long one considering the fact that his mouth was still open all the way from his bed to the window. When Blade got to the window his eyes searched through the streets and unconsciously wandered in the direction of the Degoserind's smashing punishment. Thinking of his friend's badluck caused a hint of smile to show up on his lips.Surprisingly, the wall was back to New! Well, what did he expect from someone as rich as the Magnetic Devil. Speaking of which, Blade's eyebrow curved in a rarely seen worried expression.“Where's that guy?““Well, I guess he could take care of himself, just hope he's not done some crazy things

Blade and the Degoserind found themselves in the midst of a stunning winter landscape within the Underground Anti-Magnetic City. The snowy plains stretched as far as the eye could see, creating a serene atmosphere that contrasted sharply with their harrowing escape.The tolling bells and ethereal music filled the air, making Blade curious about the significance of this celebration."Christmas?" Blade echoed, unfamiliar with the term.The Degoserind grinned, "Ah, you surface folks have forgotten many traditions. Christmas is a time of joy, celebration, and giving. The bells and music herald the season"As Blade absorbed this new information, a bustling cityscape emerged on the horizon, and they set out to explore what lay beyond the snowy expanse. In the Underground Anti-Magnetic City, Blade found himself amidst a vibrant metropolis. The architecture was a mesmerizing blend of advanced technology and timeless elegance.The level of fusion between magnetism and technology awed Blade as
