In the empty street, Alister Neo and Nelson Carter are mumbling sitting on the public bench.
Smooth air and environment makes them be open as their flesh flinched by the coldness.
Alister raised the papers toward Nelson which theif left. Thinking he failed to fulfill his duty. Nelson bumped into Alister.
" Don't be so arrogant. If it was daylight there was no chance of him to escape from you. "
Said Nelson.
" Why do you think that? I wonder how you run having such a elephant like stomach. Do you do exercise or any special course? "
" No, I just hold my breath in and then run. Simple thing you know. "
Nelson looked at the papers. Gently taking it from Alister he narrowed his eyes at the headline. It is about the zombie invasion. The culprit was trying to steal the clues. If maybe the culprit leader's minion.
Alister had doubt that any person could be a spy of his from the vanguard department. Hiding and collecting information in shadows.
Nelson took the report of every injured person from the invasion. Many of them had post traumatic stress disorder, mainly old people. Feeling very angry at his own self that he betrayed his comrades just like his sister. He had the power to protect but he didn't. One day maybe he will unleash his fat..... but it could be hard to explain, because he did many destructive actions on people's properties. Government will most likely haunt him down after discovering his location and identity.
" What now? "
Nelson simply said.
" Let's go, do the nothing. Stay with none. That's how we live on, right? "
Nelson chuckled hiding his half face and scratching over his shaved beard.
" I don't work for the money or to serve people. I came here to distract myself from the crushing weight of free will. "
" Hahaha, I told my therapist about my work. Now she needs a therapist. "
Both laughs.
....
Henry standing tall with his one handful pounds which he earned from the foretelling. Now he just needs some training on his capabilities. He is very weak to save his people. Which's example he witnessed live a day ago. He will come back.....
No wonder what were the other Miracle Invokers doing? They must be busy on other works.
He has a revolver that is mostly useless. What's the use? He is also scared about them, they are alone at home...
Julius and Sebastian are busy doing some work. Foretellers gathered some budget to rebuild the camp and recruit expert members from abroad. Henry will put his bandage down today. His head is still aching. His brain might be having some malfunction. Those miracles will haunt the whole region if Miracles Invokers doesn't fight back. Hence, he needs to grow stronger.
Henry sat on a desk and tapped his fingers on the table with bored face.
He will now leave. The works he has done today made him fatigued. He needs a break to cure himself fully otherwise it might take a big shape.
....
Martin Lawden calmly sitting on his throne daydreaming of heaven.
A beautiful place. River flows beside the nearest hills, deers mumble across the big green field full of marigold and china-rose. An apple fell down as the smooth wind blows by the north. Leaving a trail of freedom, peace, kindness and rights. Dwelling with your love having grape in early youth... Is it really possible? Is it real?
Martin always believed heaven is fake. Thing like " Heaven, Paradise, Eden.... " never existed. Only that exists in the brightness of the candle is Hell. Even if Heaven is real, none is enough innocent in this world to achieve a single room in that castle.
With that he stood up slowly.
Looks like the Niterra System is contradicting Solar System's law. Looks like a war is going to rattle on cosmos.
He wore his mask. He conjured a log near him. That log had black colour and green scars all around glowing after certain seconds. He stole it from bunch of necromancers after killing them. He stole this to boost his capabilities.
After carrying it by both hands he chanted a incantation. The log slowly mixes with his body turning into liquid. His physical body was shining in green for a moment.....
This " Necromancer Log " is basically a lessen-cursed object used for necromancy. It also allows user to overcome any weakness and difficult circumstances. Also doubles the necromancy knowledge for a certain time. Martin just fused the log with his own Miracle path. Which will last long for a while. It may give his veins a hard time but he can bear it.
Martin scratched his elbow and then ignored as if nothing is happening.
...
The sun is almost setting down. Henry is going home taking a shortcut. Cutting his hair from the nearest barber shop.
That walking and silently singing guy noticed a person beside the pond. Feeding some ducks bread. He was wearing vanguard suit. Henry cleared his vision and came to an point.
It's Jeff!
He ran and gave him gave a jump scare and the bread fell.
Jeff casually took the bread and kept feeding. Henry calmly sat beside him hoping for a reply. He felt that Jeff was hiding something. He was sad and bored of living.
" Hey, is there anything wrong? Tell me. I will go for aloud in the devils. "
Henry smiled. His tooth was throwing brightness that's why Jeff wore glasses.
Jeff said with bored face, " So, you might not need any kind of lamp or torch in darkness I think. Your toothpaste company should get an international award. Pardon me and shutter your mouth. "
" See? You can't hold the brightness inside me. You should go and bath. Or you can just jump in the pond! Put your shorts! "
" First put your damn teeth and heart out. "
" Nope, you are angry. Tell me, I will keep it a secret. "
As Jeff turned at Henry,
Henry hides his bandage around head hurrily pulling the hat down.
Jeff looked at the dizzy quarter visible moon at sky.
" Someone I cared about, smashed a trident of betrayal in my chest. It's been three years, but I still can feel it. "
" Why do you feel? "
Jeff looked at Henry with confusion.
" You know why we feel pain? Because we feel it. Don't feel it, just ignore. Problem solved. "
" You are a hilarious damn boy! "
