2024-10-29 19:42:56He turned around and his smile knew no bounds. Now, all he had to do was drag this piece of car wreck back and he'd get his due reward.
What was the weight of this object compared to his potential gains?Oh puhleeze!The car felt just like a log of tree to him right now. He could totally put up with it.Mind you, the humans of this era had better physiques than humans of the pre-magnetic era.No to talk of being a superhuman.Dragging a piece of car wreck was just like lifting a bag of cement. Though a bit strenuous, it was still manageable especially at the thought of getting a thousand Black mags or rather 10 Golden mags.That was a golden collection! Only God knew how may golden mags the scavengers of the 33rd division had seen.Without much ado, he picked the egg and placed it among the loot that he gained from the beast. Then he placed it in the car wreck and dragged it forward enthusiastically. Even the egg wasn't spared! At least, the egg was also eatable. If he made snake egg bacon and tendon soup, he'd have a great meal ahead of him.Taking two steps forward, he dragged his latest discovery forward but as he did so, he heard an unfamiliar sound In his ears.'Screech!!!' the sound of metal grating against each other rang out.Blade paused and looked back at the wreck he was carrying. He spotted a confused expression. Why did it make such sound and also, the wreck felt a bit out of place and a bit heavier than his estimated weight.'Was something holding it back? Or was it the accumulation of sand on the wreck or was it just the sound of metal against stone?' Blade momentarily asked himself.'Who knows' he thought as he shrugged his shoulders and increased the amount of force he used to pull the car wreck.'screech! screech!! screech!!!' the sound got louder and louder the more he pulled it.Blade stopped all of a sudden. He was flabbergasted!How could a stone keep on dragging him back? That was totally impossible!Or maybe it was sand and rocks?On that note, Blade began to dust and shake excess sand and gravel from the car wreck.After concluding this, he tried again but was still getting that same grating sound.Could it be that another metal is entangling it say, a rod or sheet or else there was no other way...All of a sudden a bulb lit up on his head.Metal against metal? A car tangled with many iron rods or what else???He just couldn't analyse the current data before him but when removing all possibilities and leaving the impossibility, that impossibility could just turn out to be possible!Then……..It couldn't be! He turned around with his face as pale as a white sheet and his hands shaking nervously he took his first step forward and as if he was treading on a thin sheet of ice he re-traced his footsteps.With his heart pounding, Blade got to the spot he pulled the car wreck from and there he saw that there was indeed some twisted metals beneath the car coupled with some dark adhesive of sand, oil and rust.After dusting and removing this dark layer, his eyes were greeted with a massive glistening amount of magnetised metal beneath the sandy landscape.Blade was shocked! Totally astonished! This was…virtually a miracle! He held his breath and looked at the sight before him in surprise.All of a sudden his eyes widened in shock and wonder as his brain finally fully registered the information that his eyes took from the sight before him.What magnificence! A car garage buried during the pre-magnetic domain eruption was the cause of the cause of the grating sound.He placed his fingers on his lips and counted silently.As he counted with shaky lips, his brain refused to process what was going on.He believed that all of this definitely couldn't be real. First from a fuel pump, to a car, then all the way to a car garage!Goddess of fortune, what else do you have in stock for me?He's definitely not dreaming on this one and to be sure, he looked around, sure enough there was nobody to pinch to confirm that fact.Good gracious!!!This is it!Blade calmed his racing heart and continued counting his loot.As he counted, his ears became red and his breathing became faster and faster until he was short of breath.These were the symptoms of too much excitement. All of these were happening when he realized that he had finished counting after a few minutes. He inhaled a sharp whistle of breath and exclaimed, "Holy cow‼! How many?!"He tried forcing himself to calm down, but he couldn't help it instead he opened his mouth and laughed wildly into the sky."Ha!ha!ha!ha!ha!ha!" he laughed then stopped and laughed again. This went on for quite a while.Blade slowly sat down on the ground as he laughed to his heart's content. If there could be a something more beautiful and wonderful than this coming, then let it come!!!He was ready for anything the goddess of fortune wanted to throw at him. 'Goddess of fortune, even your slippers or bath robe would do''Fling them at me, use your whip to flog my back, use your rope to tie my neck''Let me become your trash taker. I'll take out your trash, clean your house and anything else you need me to do' Blade laughed as his emotions were being conveyed through his laughter to his surroundings.He practically looked like a mad man at that moment. Truly, there was a saying that read 'Money makes a man go mad'. This saying applied to Blade's situation right now. Because what he was doing was a vivid example of a term that had been long forgotten.'Five minutes madness'

After laughing for a while, Blade calmed down and composed himself. Next should come the critical thinking aspect.What should he do next? Yes! He should count his blessings. No he had counted already so what was the number again?It seems he had forgotten the number already. Well, he could count again, no problem with that. So he started counting once more and after counting, Blade found that there was a total of 50 car wrecks! The thought of getting 50 times what he never planned for was seriously nerve wracking.He just sat down at the edge of the car wreck and stared right at it as if it would disappear should he turn his eyes away. Could the goddess of fortune really have decided to give him something today? Nah, that must be a trick or rather a mistake. Maybe the goddess of fortune mistakenly lost a piece of fortune and he accidentally ran into it.Pfft! How could it be possible for him to run into the goddess lost treasures just like that? Not once, nor twice, but thrice!!! #Lu
Anti-Magnetic World Chapter 7: Blade's Magnetic Charisma
Blade realized that using this plan and implementing it on time was the best course of action to take. He has to do everything at the right timing and in all secrecy.After nodding to himself, he immediately started scouting the surrounding 300 metres for any sort of presence once more. Once he was done with his observation, he got down to work. First, he carefully removed the car wreck to avoid unnecessary noise and began dragging it back to base with a flushed and excited face.He kept changing directions so as not to meet either strangers or acquaintances along the way. His direction must be kept a secret and seen by less people. If possible, no one should see him coming back at all.Along the way, he kept on thinking of the massive haul he had. 'pop!' Blade's foot kicked a protruding stone on the ground and he lost his balance and fell into the hot sand.Damn! How did he kick this stone?No! How dare the stone set itself in his way. The latest tycoon in the 33rd division being d

"My day has been awesome! Lady Anne" Blade replied in an equally captivating manner.Of course, he actually didn't mean much of it but as he replied his excitement influenced his speech and for a moment, his bright smile caused his personal charm to overflow in the sight of Anne.'Such a wonderful man to be with, why doesn't he just settle down with me? I don't really care how many women he has so long it doesn't get to 50 women like Zed' Anne thought as she looked at the smile on the handsome face before her.For a moment, Anne was lost in her thoughts of a wonderful union with Blade. A happy family, and a prosperous home, but she was snapped out of it when the same voice called out to her again gently…."Lady Anne? My collection package?" "Oh! Sorry about that" Anne quickly tapped some keys on the console in a fidgety manner.She already knew his serial number off-hand and could even call it out in her dreams so it wasn't surprising to see her regaining her composition and typing ra
Anti-Magnetic World Chapter 9: Stirring the Base
The silence was stifling in the inner section of the base. You would think everyone was offering a one minute silence for an important individual.This was a sudden bomb that hit them unawares. Since when had a massive magnetic object source like this been found?3 years ago? Nah, this could very well be the first large pre-magnetic object to have been found in the base of operations of the 33rd division.Imagine you were in a conversation that was very interesting and you got carried away by it then, your partner sees a Golden collection package.First, there would be a sudden stop in conversation as that particular person would become absent minded.His fellow partner would try to catch his attention but would later follow the direction of his eyes to find the person or thing that made him lose concentration so much. His actions would alert others and they would subconsciously monitor the person's actions.Although they couldn't understand what happened in the first place, their sub

As he was relaxing, the same lady brought to him a plate of desserts to enjoy and left him to himself.“Thank you, this looks tantalising!“ Blade complimented.“It's a special treat for special guests” The lady replied somewhat charmingly as she turned around to her station.Blade couldn't help but feel that this female was really conversational. She answered his questions with politeness and a smile but best of all she answered in a manner that made him feel comfortable.Blade smiled warmly as he looked at the desserts and reminisced about the times before the magnetic eruption. It was still a bit better to eat something he had almost forgotten. The last five years of him breaking into the superhuman level had almost looked like a decade to him.The dessert he always had at his fingertips over 11 years ago was now distant to him. He put the tropical juice to his lips and took a sip of its refreshing taste. As he savoured what he was being served, he took the time to review his plans o
Anti-Magnetic World Chapter 11: Dilemma
As his eyes scrolled through the list, he saw that the section he was looking at, which was the body suit section, had different suits, amazing designs, wonderful colors and cool looking gadgets. The prices were pocket bleeding though. It seemed that whoever wrote this list was a miser who loved money.The booklet had different categories and they were for Anti magnetic suits, cars, weapons, one time use weapons, medicines and other auxiliary equipments respectively. All the equipments you could only dream of were all there.In this present world, equipments were divided based on their quality, attack speed and performance. To make them sound cooler the SAA divided them into deifferent grades. These were Common equipment, Rare equipment, Extraordinary equipment, Mythical equipment and Legendary equipment this was btter than the usual Grade 1, 2, 3, 4 etc.Actually, he was a bit confused as to why there were mythical and legendary equipments on the SAA's classification. Because most of

Blade 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.

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

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?

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. It was said that the Blood Moon district had the highest amount of strippers in the entire Underground

“What? Are you jealous now?“ Imelda laughed, her clear voice ringing in his ears like a bell. “Jealous?

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.

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. Some of them have various emergency measures that could even stop the assaults of Grade Five existences”Nodding in affirmation, Blade continu

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.

Blade was shocked silly by what he was seeing.

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?

Chapter 46: Morning Surprise!
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

Chapter 45: Shadows and Snowflakes
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
