《The Overseer》Aftermath
Advertisement
Frozen heaven, where the lord of eternal coldness resides, inside a huge white room ,which was lit by a mysterious white glow coming out of the walls and even the air, sat an old man , with long blue beard, hazel coloured long hair, and was wearing spectacles whose glasses were made by freezing light to an absolute zero, and it was probably not for traditional use; on a long icy chair who was reading the papers infront of him kept on a long desk, when suddenly there was a knock on the door.
* Knock *
* Knock *
If a normal person would had heard this sound then he could had easily told you the difference, that this sound is much more crisp, clear and moreover it would be somehow felt by that person as if the sound was pricking his ears.
The two giant white doors opened smoothly, the two doors looked majestic like never been seen before not only that, one could feel the immense pressure they were giving off just my by moving.
A young man with hazel hair , though a lot lighter than the old man 's, entered. The guy walked in front of the old man. That guy bowed before he said with a respectful voice full of honesty and disappointment.
" Sir, we have lost contact with the experiment number 1145. "
The old man, who was still looking at the papers, with a calm voice told him -
" Start extracting the law and prepare another experiment with the amendments. "
The reason why he was still calm and gave away the directions before even knowing the cause was because it was just a test subject and death of one is not something uncommon because of weird tests that they have been doing, but the reply which the young man gave him next was completely unexpected.
" An alien had destroyed the protective shell before it forcefully sucked away the law. "
"…"
Hearing this reply the old man stopped reading the papers and his azure eyes were now set on that young man.
" Are you sure, have you checked if people from illusion heaven haven't interfered with our energy strings? " his voice has now turned serious.
" There were no traces or after effects of usage of the power of laws found."

" Hmm
I understand. "
He said as he kept his right hand on his cheek.
After some time he ordered that young man
" Raise the security level, while I will go and tell this to our lord even though he would have already come to know about it.
I will give my commands later when I come back. "
The young man nodded and left the hall.
"Is this the work of the lord of Scorching heaven?
After all , he was eyeing on the power of laws of our lord for over a millennia now. " the old man thought.
•••••••
The Royal City of Kingdom Of Mandellan, inside the king's chambers , in the castle of Mandellan.
" Is what you said true, Rob? "
" I can swear upon my pride, your highness."
Inside the magnificent huge chambers, whose every wall was made up of marble, and gold was used to decorate it, there sat a handsome middle aged man with golden hair and black eyes, who was wearing a golden robe. This middle aged man is the king of this magnificent kingdom, kingdom of Mandellan, situated at the south west of the continent of Prometheus, and the one who was standing in front of him was a middle aged man, Rob, with black hair and black eyes whose body was completely covered with bandages.
" So, I shall ask you Rob, is this the birth of a new hero? "
" I am sure my lord , the strength he displayed earlier should on par with the s class monsters. "
" Hmm...
You may leave now. "
" As you wish my lord, but you can't tell about this to anyone. " Rob nodded before he bowed and left the chambers.
After Rob left, the king, Caldwell Paul Mandellan, stood up and walked down to a closet. He took out a white box from it and opened it.
The box was obviously luxurious and had red cushions inside it to for the safety of the priceless artifact inside it which was all wrapped in a dark violet soft cloth and a platinum colored insignia was stitched on that cloth. The insignia consisted of two crossed swords , which were covered by beautiful vines, and a staff between them.

Caldwell took that thing out of the box and kept the box on a side table. He took that oval shaped thing with him as he sat down on his bed, after which he slowly and gently with great care unwrapped it, soon it was unwrapped and revealed an oval crystal, whose colour was silver, with the same insignia that was on the cloth carved on it. He held the crystal with both of his hands ,after he had gently put that cloth on the bed beside him, and slowly closed his eyes. He muttered a few incantations as he channeled his mana in that crystal, the crystal reacted to his actions and the insignia carved on it started glowing , feeling that his incantations worked he slowly opened his eyes after which they were fixed on the insignia waiting patiently for something to happen and then, suddenly heard his voice.
" Oh!
Hello Paul, it has been such a long time since we had a conversation last time. "
" Uncle Gilbert, pardon my disrespect for calling you like this. "
" Oh!
No problem at all and just drop these honorifics already, you are like my own kid, and believe me I would never want my kid to behave like this. You know I am really happy that you have called me, I thought that you have forgotten about us,
( His voice now turns serious) but considering you, nothing ordinary can force you to use this. What has transpired in my absence Paul? "
" You really have a lot of experience, don't you uncle Gilbert. "
" What do you even expect from this old man, damn, now you are making me feel old, just spit out the reason already "
" Yes, uncle.
Recently Jenny, Veronica and Ryan along with their friends... " Caldwell explained everything to Gilbert what was told to him by Rob and those surviving soldiers about the incident which had happen some days ago and Gilbert listened to it with great interest.
After some time.
Gilbert - " … and considering the current circumstances of your kingdom and that of the Gelderen kingdom you want to take him in your side and increase your military strength? "
" At the moment I don't, he could be spy for other kingdoms or considering his strength could even be a demon, but if I could make sure that he is not a demon or if any other of those possibilities could be proven wrong then, I would love to. "
" Hmm.
I understand why you have called me, and I am even ready to dig out his past and find out who and what that kid is, but, after I am done and if it's proved that he is a human indeed then I want that kid. "
" You can have him. Afterall, it would be better if you could protect him from all those churches, but I want that kid to protect this kingdom of mine from the Gelderen Kingdom. "
" Wohh
That's a toughy. Well, The Gelderen is mysterious and powerfull but it had been since the time when I first saw it, but it had never attacked you people neither any other kingdom, but even if it does I can't allow interference of such a powerfull being. You know what I mean right? "
" I understand, but promise me if it's his own will then you won't interfere? "
" As long as he behave like a human and doesn't break war crimes. "
" You still hold righteousness above all don't you, uncle? "
" I am just fulfilling my job.
Anyways, we will be there by a week. Don't let him go to any kind of public place till that time.
Bye. "
The signal was cut off and the insignia on the crystal stopped glowing, seeing this Caldwell sighed and started looing at the glowing lamp kept on a distant table. His eyes were fixed on it but his mind was on something else, probably he was planning on what to do to make Dante want to help him.
••••
Time passed away, minutes became hours and hours became days, but Dante was still unconscious lying on a bed in private home especially prepared for him , and finally after a week the day came when he finally opened his eyes.
