Bab 29: Severance
It was a room filled with smoke where Eon was laid on the ground burning weeds like incense one after another like there was no tomorrow for him.
As he was wasting his time getting high from the weeds the door to the room opened as Sage walked in with a light cough because of the smoke.
Looking at the smoke in the room she let out a sigh as she asked her future self.
"How in the world did you fall for this wastrel".
"Hmm… it's difficult to make you understand, him in the future was a lot mature than his current self he always had a rational approach to everything, not like this one here wasting his life-like this".
As they were having a chat a voice echoed in her ears.
"How the fuck are there FUCKING 2 SAGE… HMM… 1!,2!? Did ya clone yourself!? Gibe me one, I wanna one of you".
Eon who was laid on the floor opened his eyes with great difficulty only to hallucinate 2 Sage in front of him.
Sage was flabbergast by Eon's behaviour which had a hint of immaturity and a light chilly ring to it.
She circled him to satisfy her curiosity but couldn't understand, from which angle did her future self fall for him.
"Give up he is in his insane mode who is highly unreasonable to the logic we had to detox him".
After some consideration, the Future Sage said with a slight uncertainty making the present one speechless.
"Where do we found a detox kit? Certainly this fucker is not sane enough to carry a detox kit with him?".
"Search the drawer next to the bed the one who delivered him his weed surely put a detox there".
The present Sage mockingly said that but hearing what her future self said she was confused as she asked
"Why go to such length, only to detox himself after getting high?".
"No, as far as I heard from the rumours he started a killing spree after getting high. He was only stopped when he got bored and fell asleep. He was charged with many lawsuits but they cancel them due to his influence".
Present Sage was aghast after hearing this she had her view completely overturn by what her future self said she didn't know how to process this information, should she sickened by his crimes or should she overlook this and act normally.
" Don't dwell too much into this kind of things there are too many fake stories about him that he created on purpose to mislead all the masses about his behaviour so that they can undermine him"
The present Sage didn't get why the fake stories are there, to begin with, but she was sure that it was not something that she would like to know.
Ignoring what her future self said and the staggering Eon as she made her way towards the bedside drawer.
As soon as she opened the drawer she found a syringe with a vial of drug and a note on how to use that.
Following the instructions, she went over towards Eon and injected the drug on his left shoulder.
"Hey future Self"
"What is it?"
"Change your name it feels awkward calling your future self or Sage"
"So what do you suggest?"
"Come on---"
The present Sage was startled as she never thought that her suggestion was going to accept this quickly. She quickly reorganises herself as she continued
"How about Rose?"
"How about I name you Lily?"
Hearing her future self sarcastic naming her, Sage was speechless but ignore her as she continues
"How about Avenir which means future in Earthen language what do you things interesting right?"
Ignoring her the future Sage sigh and replied
"Call me Iris from now on and stop fooling around"
Hearing the futur- no it's now Iris, Sage was a bit displeased as she said.
"What Iris it is such a lame name Avenir sound much cooler"
Ignoring her Iris went to a silent mode not responding to any comments ignoring Sage.
Seeing that there was no response she stops pestering her and looked at Eon who had fallen after injecting detox.
Sage let out a sigh as she was a little annoyed with the boredom. She looked at Eon who was fallen unconscious with a dazed looked but quickly feel sickened after remembering the report but she did not move her eyes from him and started comparing him to certain someone.
"You are the only woman who can do what you are doing now to him, most of them probably fall prey to his Charm spell".
Sage who was looking dazed was jolted awake by the voice which rang inside her.
"That was so spooky could you warn me next time, you scared the hell out of me".
" hehe… You see that man down there has Powerful witchcraft inscribed on his right arm which has a wide range of applications and charm is one of them, so consider yourself lucky cause he ain't using that on you".
After pondering for a while Sage look at Eon's right arm but there was nothing it was a plain arm there was no sign of tattoo or any sign of alteration. Confused she asked Scarlet.
"Where is it?".
Hearing this Scarlet snort at Sage idiocy and answered
"Hmph… If it was visible like that then he would be a world-class idiot, but unfortunately, he is not like them. Even if they are visible they would not be any different than a regular tattoo which is drawn for an appeal or amusement".
Sage let out a sigh and continued to stare at Eon who was still unconscious.
"So why did she choose her name as Iris, only to go into silent mode?".
" Hmm…. Why do you think I would know that answer?".
Sage continued to stare at Eon but this time it was a stare that contains a spark of curiosity in it.
"Come on if you want to play like this then better don't give me hints let me be ignorant of that matter. Even an idiot will know that you have read Iris's memory with all the detail about Eon. So stop making any excuses tell me why?".
There was an odd silence surrounding Sage now, she didn't speak nor did Scarlett until Eon start showing the sign of waking up.
"You wanted to know why? Then here is the answer because she was my daughter!".
Sage mind had gone blank before she realised what transpired but was at a loss of how to reply, but fortunately for her Eon who had just started to show sign of waking up was now fully awake and staring at her with a conflicted eye as he said.
"Come on let a dying man have a time of his life, don't be such a pooper".
A few minutes prior she was blank but now she was speechless at the brassiness he has shown just when he got up.
'Ignore him he is planning something big to mention 'dying man wish', ignore but be wary of him'.
Hearing Iris's advice she did what she thought best as she said.
"A dying man looks good in bruises and scar with an epic background surrounding his death, unlike you doping nonstop and calling yourself a dying man. You have such a low standard sheh".
This time it was Eon who was speechless so he changed the topic.
"What's the reason for your visit here?".
Sage continued to stare at him as she said.
"What happened to me? Why is there another consciousness in my mind, not 1 but 2?".
Eon listens to her question but expecting this he laid on the ground and started stretching while simultaneously answering her questions.
"I separated your future consciousness who started to override your brain with future stuff and gave her an individual consciousness so that she gives you the right direction and to make sure 'You' are stable enough according to my contract
As for 2nd consciousness, it is Scarlett a symbiotic being who coexist with you and enhance you physically to the limit of one body. They can also heal you even if your brain is squashed, that too within a minute so think of it as a cheat object.
And as for weakness, they were weak to hypersonic sound and fire but after few adjustments, we were able to overcome it. For the most important part if you want to regenerate then let her eat any organic being except for plants".
Hearing this she nodded she had predicted this twist of the event regarding her first consciousness and was ready for it because she was not stupid she can analyse the situation herself,
But was in a slight daze when she heard about her second consciousness. That was way overpowered than she has anticipated.
If earlier someone told her that they had such a cheat like power she would have a shrug it off as of today every being possess a cheat like power some can conquer a small nation with their power.
Nothing the less there will be countless people who would covet their power but they will fail cause there is only one reason because of the Big two.
The Big two namely Common Space Fleet organisation (CSF) and Arms Association (ARM) are the organisation whose military power rivals that of the first-rate Empires like Aslan and Bardi and what is most terrifying is that they had a firm hold over second and third rate state, their words are the law to these lower-tier state.
The Aslan, Bardi, Bai dynasty and other first-rate state tolerated their presence because they kept order in place in the low-tier state creating perfect harmony in the entire Carbon civilisation!!
The Big two offer protection to these cheat holders from any poachers, with the tech the Big two possess, which is more advanced than most of the first-rate civilisation, so anybody killed in their protection they will be able to sniff out mastermind within a matter of truly terrifying days!
Sage kept quiet for few seconds as she knows that being in association with the Big two mean she will have a fallout with the Alliance which is made by all the First-rate states!
This is the very reason she cannot trust The Big two cause she is the Princess of the Bardi the best successors in the Bardi Royal Family!
As she was lost in thought she heard Eon voice asking her for something.
"Hey, have you ever driven a 1 trillion credit car?".
Save was stunned but she remembered Eon's Ace the car was marvellous which suited her taste that's why she went out of her way to remembered the name!
" The Ace? Yes I remembered".
"Good, here take this key"
As he said this he threw a remote at her, she was startled by it who in this age use a key for a Car!
Seeing her doubts Eon chuckled as he said.
"That key contains powerful encryption which has a biometric scan and molecular scan which can scan things to the molecular level. Even with the most advanced tech, it will take 19 years to decrypt the code to open the door and another year to start the car. You also need this to attach the car with its other accessories which make its value up to a trillion credits".
Curiously she asked Eon with a slightly dubious look
" What are the accessories you mentioned?"
"Well, this car comes with stealth technology, good insulation, radar, hovering mode, machine gun, plasmic rifle, threats detection, AI firing, it can scan the whole planet by hacking all the satellite, an armour which is made of the toughest materials in the multiverse even Colossal level being will have a hard time against it heck you can also kill him with all the attachments. So do you think it is worth the money?".
"What about the temperature how much heat can it take?"
Eon looked at her and started laughing loudly without any restraint which made her embarrassed.
"Haha… Don't ever try that you will become a toasted lizard before it reaches its melting point".
Hearing this she was offended, who in their right mind will call a dragon lizard in front of them.
As she was about to flare her face was flushed red her hair started to swaying but she controlled herself and reply.
"Well, what do we expect with an overgrown brawly Barbarian not understanding the difference between a Dragon and a lizard hmph!".
Hearing this Eon erupt into another fit of laughter which was hysterical
"Hahahaha… Sage you are too cute when you are angry haha… Please tell me in advance… when you are going to be like that haha…".
Hearing this she was about to explode with but something within her placates her mind and all the anger and embarrassment subsidies like it were not there it was like something inside her was soothing herself against Eon comments.
Thinking for a while she comes up with a conclusion and raised her voice to maximum
"ARE YOU KIDDING ME!!! I AM NOT EVEN ALLOWED TO SWEAR THIS REPULSIVE BARBARIAN!!!".
Eon who listen to this continues to laugh at her which pissed her off badly.
Seeing this Iris who was laying low made herself dormant as she speaks while possessing Sage body.
"Stop messing around she is still naive and as for Ace thank you we will be taking that along with all the extension, please send it to our home.
And Sage you should not fall for his provocation, this is not good for your future.
Eon you better stop messing around and get to the point why so generous?".
"Consider it as severance pay for the contract. And don't ever associate with Saints, Scarlett valour needs to improve separately".
"Why? You were the one who bought us that contract and now firing us? Give us a reason so that the budding curiosity inside her come to a stop".
Hearing this Eon looked up at the ceiling before giving a reply he sighs.
"I am planning my death is that enough?!".
