Chapter 1818: The Past Of The Empaths
Emil glanced at the scenes and felt immense sadness, but also couldn’t help but wonder something.
“Why are you showing me these things? What do you want me to do? I am… I came here, I paid someone to help me out free you, so… I… I don’t know if I could do anything myself.”
The granny in front of him smiled gently at him.
“Emil.”
“Y-Yes?”
“You’re a special one among all of us.”
“Me?!”
“Yes, you possess a special mind and a special brain.”
The woman walked across the shadows as it suddenly transformed into the beautiful alien forest where their race originated from.
“You’re not just an Empath. Your brain has the capabilities of something higher, your brain and your blood have reached a new level we have never reached before.”
“Huh?”
“You’re an hybrid, son.”
“What?!”
“Because of this, your psychic powers aren’t purely just the Empath ability we have. Which, as other people digest our blood, it quickly transforms into completely different things.” “Ah…”
She stopped in front of a huge, pink-colored crystal tree, touching it, caressing it gently.
“Your mother was one of our kind, but your father was actually a human, did you know?”
“Humans?”
“Yes, a rare species of beings from another planet. They look like us but have clear pink skin… and smaller eyes.”
“Oh… My father… Wait, can’t I talk to mom? Is she here?”
“Unfortunately, she’s not.”
“N-No… Is she dead?”
“If she were dead she could come here, but she isn’t dead either.”
Emil’s eyes widened, as the hope he had lost was once more ignited.
“Right now, we have no idea where she is, her psychic mind is not connected to our Realm,” the granny said. “But she is indeed alive… somewhere in this planet. The people that have captured us might know where she might be, perhaps another laboratory.”
“Ah…” Emil muttered. “I… I want to find her… at least mom, if I can find my mother…!” “Emil.”
The old lady glanced at Emil’s blue eyes with her big, black eyes.
“You’re a miracle among miracles, a child that was not only born as a hybrid of our kind, therefore giving you access to something beyond our race’s power… but you’re also someone that was given a good childhood, and has people that loves you,” she said. “You’re… better than all of us. So please, Emil… would you help us?”
Emil, someone that was always shy and timid, felt overwhelmed by the responsibility… but at the end of the day, he also had to remember he came here just to do that.
“Of course…” he nodded, smiling gently. “I’ll do… but how can I help? I am… I’m just a weak person at the end.”
“You’re not… you’re much more,” she said. “But to reach further into your powers, I must first unlock your Psychic Mind, the tremendous power hiding within you. I shall release it. Are you ready Emil? This might hurt… more than anything in your life.”
“I… I’ve grown used to pain now,” Emil said. “After experiencing what everyone went through… it’s nothing compared to that.”
“I see… what a good child you are,” the lady smiled. “Please, would you lower your head?”
“Yes…”
Emil lowered his head, as the granny’s hand touched his forehead.
And then…
FLASH!
An explosion of light engulfed his entire mind and even his sense of self.
Everything that made him who he was exploded.
And something else, much stronger…
And much more terrifying awakened.
“A-Ah! To think you had… such a power inside, Emil!”
CLASH! CLASH! CLASH!
Crack, crack…!
CRASH!
Benladra’s barriers shattered into pieces as she saw her defenses immediately be destroyed by the spikes generated by the red-haired woman’s Esper Aura.
Starly seemed to squirm in pain as a large chunk of her body disappeared but was quickly regenerating once more.
“Starly… you’re protecting me too much; I can take some hits!” Benladra said.
“Fooohhh!” however, Starly didn’t take a “no” for answer, as her Domain, he would protect
her at all cost.
“Your attacks seemed nothing more than a small annoyance at the end…”
Amidst the smoke, the woman stepped forward, her cowboy boots making loud metallic sounds as she approached Benladra.
“My clothes are very good at taking damage from any source, a combination of reinforced polymers synthetized out of the hardest materials in the universe,” she smiled. “And my scales, they allow me to reflect all types of light. Aren’t I strong?”
“Strong yes. Invincible? Hardly,” smiled Benladra, facing the woman.
“Hah, what an annoying little smile you have~” smiled the woman. “How long until I can rip
that smile out of your face, love?”
Both her and Benladra pulled out their guns, as dozens of bullets flew across the surroundings, constantly generating explosions of starlight energy and Divine and Esper
Auras colliding.
BAANG! BAANG! BAANG! BAANG!
Benladra kept her distance from her as she shot all the bullets she had against her. The woman
was able to move incredibly quickly, evading every bullet coming her way, resembling a
crimson blur.
“You’re too slow, girl.”
With her ability that slowed Benladra’s perception of time, it wasn’t hard at all to easily evade
her bullets with the amount of delay she was giving.
“Agh! Dammit!”
As the woman approached her, Benladra roared angrily, quickly unleashing her draconic
form…
Partially!
RUMBLE!
Giant draconic claws surged from her arm, the red-haired woman’s eyes widneed in utter disbelief as a massive claw came rushing down at her.
CRAAASH!
“UGH?!”
She had to put all her Esper powers into resisting the immense force of Benladra’s draconic strength, only for a second claw to sweep her away with tremendous force.
CRASH!
“Aaagh!”
As the woman as thrown away and rolled over the cold metallic floor, Benladra rushed
towards her, her head suddenly becoming a huge draconic head.
“RAAAHHH!”
“You damn freak!”
Before she could be bitten, the woman gathered her powers into her rifle, firing with all her
strength into Benladra’s jaws.
BOOOM!
“Uuagh!”
Benladra was unable to evade in time due to her slowed down status, being sent away as her
jaws were covered on crimson flames, half her teeth gone.
“I’m going to blow up your brains right now!”
The crimson-haired woman reached Benladra’s side, pointing her rifle at her head that had
returned back to normal.
BAAANG!
She smiled, the bullet would surely blow her brains out and…
And…
“Huh?”
The woman, however, suddenly realized the bullet had hit her instead.
“W-Wha…?”
BOOOM!
As she tried to stand up after the explosion, she glanced at someone that had suddenly
appeared.
She didn’t even realize what was happening.
From shooting her rifle at Benladra’s head, to her rifle’s bullet hitting her stomach instead
and sending her flying away.
“Hm?”
She stood up again, confused, her equipment protected her, but there was now a second
player in this game of life and death.
“The boy’s awake?!”
Emil was right besides Benladra, protecting her.
Her wounds regenerated quickly.
“Emil… you’re awake!” “Benladra… You’ve been holding back because of me, right? There’s no need anymore.”
“Huh? You’re… kind of different?”
Benladra’s eyes widened, as Emil’s blue eyes shone like two spiraling purple and azure
nebulas.
From his body, an immense amount of Psychic Energy surged, so dense space itself seemed to
be distorting.
“I’ve fully woken up now.”
Emil has unlocked 100% of his power.
