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
"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
"My father's enemies are powerful and strong but they shouldn't be so powerful as to be able to force my father to stay in the earth's core for so long even if my father is having issues with his moral values." Blade started thinking critically."It's as if he is on mobile arrest and yet they can't do anything to him for now""This means they are wary of him and probably want to use him for their own stupid purposes""This means our enemies are here, and they are all around us." Blade paused as he became more confident in his deductions and analysis."Our enemy must be confident of their intelligence network and ability to locate my dad. It is obvious that our enemy is the Seven Apex Alliance." Blade started stating the obvious over and over.Unfeeling haze just looked tired. What's wrong with him this time? He's basically summarising everything that we've discussed, what's the point? Blade himself was shocked at the despicable attitude of the Seven Apex Alliance. They didn't want to
Blade sighed and said,"An ordinary life isn't my destiny, I was born for a purpose, I am here for a purpose and I will fulfill that purpose. I have my aspirations and I cannot stay unknown throughout my life""Dad has done his best, even if he outlines the path for me to take, I still make my own decisions and hemust have predicted this but I don't know the consequences of my decision but, he should know" Blade muttered more like he was talking to himself. But Tules who was a high level superhuman could hear every word being spokenAll of a sudden, Blade's temperament changed again and it became tinged with determination and the look of someone who aimed higher than his contemporaries. If before, Blade was a sleeping tiger, now he looked like a Lion, majestic and proud.At this moment, Blade felt something mysterious within himself. He could feel some kind of subtle connection between his body and mind. Feeling exhilarated, he boldly declared into the free wind in particular."Today,
Right then, a shadow flashed and the leaves rustled on the floor as someone who looked like an assassin clothed in all black from head to toe appeared. The figure's voice was neutral, making it hard to determine if it was male or female. But from the name 'Jane', it was very obvious that she was a lady. "My lord, I am here at your command," Jane said.Tules, the lord, turned to Jane and said, "This is a new trainee that is very important to our future plans. I need you to train him twice as hard as the others, let him feel pain, draw him close to death, and let his life flash before his eyes multiple times." Tules' words sounded like those of a grim reaper, and Blade imagined terrible scenes of torture, which made him feel like crying."As you wish, sir," the assassin female called Jane responded."Good," Tules nodded and turned his back on Blade as he quickly increased his steps towards the edge of the courtyard.Then, as if he remember
