Chapter 78: The day the world stands still part (1)

EARTH TWO

GLOBAL VENTURE HQ

U.S.A

NEW YORK

The people look like tiny dots from the sky. Like ants. So small. Azief is looking outside his window.

Once upon a time, in another world, he was also among the crowd. Insignificant. There was a time in his youth where he dreams of becomes someone great.

But the more he learns about the world, his heart becomes colder.

His dreams and aspirations die off.

People could not become great anymore….only mediocrity exist then. Dreams are for idiots. Lofty aspirations are for the fools.

The powerful retains their power for eternity, while the lower caste grovels beneath their feet, forced to lick it like a slave.

Nice guy finish last and the evil reign as head of states, rich corporation governs the nation while the politician aid them in their reign.

A new world of slavery was created. To money, power, fame. The rich toast to it while the poor suffers.

Poor people like him. Like clockwork, the world moves on, leaving people like him behind, suppressed forever.

To him, to become a great man himself, he needs to destroy the cog in the machine.

He needs to destroy the system.

Because the world he lived back then was too complicated for him. And for people like him. For sheep like him to live in a world of wolves, they are too gentle.

He was born in mediocrity, lives in mediocrity and probably would have died a mediocre death.

There would be nothing to remember him by. Some people would like that kind of life. A mediocre life in a mediocre world.

And along the way, he began to accept his place in the world.

As another insignificant life, meant to do nothing, but to trust the system, working, paying taxes, paying his debt and dies.

Somewhere along the way, dreams dies off.

A waste of a man, a waste of a life.

And that would have been true for him if not for the fall. The system of government collapse and he attained the fairness he always wanted.

Before, no matter how you worked, you could not change your fate. Before the Fall, moey is equal to power.

The most powerful man is the one who have the most money.

Ad slot: Chapter read

No matter if he worked a thousand years, his wealth will not exceed the one per center.

The moment they were born they possess wealth that even if he is to live another thousand years, his wealth will not reach them.

And for Azief, that doesn’t make sense.

For him, it is not fair.

Maybe because in his youth he naively thought that if you work hard, you would live happy.

If you study hard at university, you will become rich.

But the truth is different. No matter how hard you work, there are certain limits.

No matter how hard you study, in the end you only become a salary man at some large company belonging to the one per center.

But now…. He is different.

Now, he is standing on top of the world with all of the power it could bring and the feeling is intoxicating…at least for a few months before you have to work to earn your keep.

Standing high over the masses, he sighed.

‘I think too positively. That is very unbecoming of me’ he said. Beside him was his butler slash assistant, Al.

‘Al, I was too optimistic.’ He said again sighing as he rubs his forehead.

‘You did sir. But that is not entirely your fault. The effect was good.’ Al said with a calm tone of voice meant to soothe Azief heart

‘Yes, but the benefit decrease with each use. I have given some of it to Will and he has reached Orb Condensing Stage High realm. Now, I could only hope my bets are good’

Azief use all the serum to reach on the threshold of Nine Opening Purification. His meridian right now is Divine Meridian.

It makes him absorbing the energy of the world easier when he summons his Conceptualization.

Conceptualization is like a higher level of attribute.

‘Should I abandon it?’ Azief ask himself as he looks outside. But he shakes his head.

‘When did I ever turn so cowardly? I’ve made my decision to reach Eternal Spring before I got out from this world. And I won’t turn back on my word’ he decided

‘Al’ he turned back as he looks at his butler and asks

‘What about Will?’

‘He is still in LA. Training. I have been keeping watch over him like you ordered’ Al replies

‘Good’ Azief nodded. Al could not do many things here but at least being a surveillance system is something he can do.

‘You are dismissed’ Azief said and AL nodded as he dissipates into the air.

Azief then sit back down at his chair and began reviewing the documents. All the while he is thinking about Will.
