章節 30: Meetings, here and there...
"BAM!".
The heavy hit against his room door was the sign that it was time for him to head over to the weapons room. Quickly, he buttoned his cuffs and ran his fingers through his hair, scattering it a bit. He stared at his reflection in front of the mirror as he got hit by memories and became nostalgic of the past life. He hadn't really stared at a mirror with a clear mind, though the second time since he reincarnated but the first time in a whole that he saw his reflection without the voice in his whispering to him, begging to see its own self alongside his.
When last did he smashed his head across the reflecting glass till its turned to sharp shards sticking out of his face and also lying around. God, did he miss scaring people with his one eye and empty socket. Popping it out suddenly and getting the gasps and fright from folks was always refreshing. He didn't want to be seen as a scary person, no he wanted to be seen as a crazy person.
You see you can get folks to fear you but one day, a foolish man would be born who would either have no fear or see no need to be afraid of you and end up crossing you. You see fear creating a boundary, a line that tells folks not to cross. But you see craziness, the act of been insane makes people want to stay away, to avoid you at all cost and if they can't, then to appease you. You see a man you fear can be appeased but a crazy person cannot be reasoned with.
Like a legend once said: 'There are some people who can't be bought, they have no mission or something to prove, they just want to watch this world burn'. That was how he felt in his last days of his previous life, perharps that's why he was chosen, to come into this world and retrieve a so called book. But he knew the agenda was to cause chaos.
The one he did and left with a bang must have triggered their appetite for more. Perharps even cosmic beings are fans of Oliver Twist, they always want more. But more would he give them, more than enough to go round, more than enough to be remembered, more than enough not only to be feared but to be entirely avoided. But the main goal would always to have ones life in one own hands and not someone else.
Perhaps the creator might view such thoughts as heresy but then it should be amusing, only just for now.
He grinned at himself as he felt the relief to expressing his thoughts, though not audible but enough for his words to ring in his head.
"But first, we need to wake you up buddy, we got enough work to do". He said out loud to himself as he quickly wheeled himself towards his door before moving out.
----------- Somewhere In The Middle Of Nowhere-------
"A thousand souls from my worshippers that he unlocks his system in a week time from now" a loud but drowsy voice said out loud while staring around at the various beings gathered around, all shrouded in darkness and light.
"Any counter offer ?" He called out again.
"Make it a double digit and you got yourself an opposing deal?". A sweet voice called out to him.
"Ha ha ha...ugh...belch...ha ha ha" The man laughed while grunting midway and continuing after a loud belch.
"Sure darling, if you say so". He replied with delight in his voice as he stared lasciviously at her sleek body form which was glowing but still shrouded in darkness. Other beings around were either laughing or engaging in small talks while seated or standing as the case may be around a spiral platform with different masses of substances suspended in air as they all indulged in whatever pleased their conscient.
"Three thousand" a short fluffy looking ball of light called out loud as it bounced its way towards the betting spot.
"Four thousand" if that snarky ball of light bets in. A likewise fluffy ball of darkness jumped into the conversation as the loud voice of a drunkard laughed out loud.
"Some people just want to watch the world burn "
The quiet but somewhat raspy voice of a man commented.
"I like this one" He laughed as others around came together and looked at the subject of interest making his way to the weapons room in a fairly large mansion, rooted in a small kingdom, situated in the humans territory.
