Chapter 1339 Chapter Of Suffering Author's Note: Unedited Chapter -------------------- ("Don't do anything stupid,") 'Watch m...' "Man I am still so confused about this whole thing. Like what the hell is an Outworldly? Why is Falco involved? How the fuck is he not of earth but also not an alien? If these niggas are from another dimension then what is their business with ours? How are you a threat to them? My brain's about to melt like jelly," E.E looked like smoke was about to evaporate from his head. Everyone had the same question in mind and turned to face Gustav, hoping he would answer all of them. "I don't know what to tell you guys... all I can say is, these people don't have good intentions for us and our universe would face peril if they were to successfully get rid of me now," Gustav said while shaking his head slightly. He also had a lot that he wanted to figure out but unfortunately, this was the amount of information he currently had. The group continued discussing till midnight before they decided to retire for the rest of the night. Gustav had told them everything he knew but of course there was still a lot of confusion and speculations. Gustav couldn't decide whether or not to listen to the system. It was currently taking everything in him not to head to where Captain Irand and his clones were currently held to question them. Gustav sat on his bed and stared at the system notifications before him. [Quest Successful: Uncover What The Indulus Prime Participants Are Up To] [Rewards] < + 10,000,000 EXP > < Atomic Manipulation Bloodline Has Been Upgraded To Grade A > < +200 Charm > "Not bad but charm seems like a waste..." Gustav voiced while standing to his feet. He moved towards the spot with a mirror and checked his face. There were visible changes to his looks. Gustav jawline looked a lot more chiselled and well defined than before. To add to this, his skin was so smooth and milky looking, one could mistake it for that of a female if they touched him. He was starting to look a little feminine with very attractive lips and streamlined nose abridged his face. His eyes still remain deep and cold but he was a whole level more attractive than he was before. Gustav would most certainly be mistaken for a model celebrity if he walked into somewhere with his current looks. ("Being a male prostitute would suit you,") The system voiced. "I have more things to worry about right now than prostitution," Gustav stated in response before walking away from the mirror. ("Why do you think Charm is useless? It could help you in unexpected situations,") The system questioned. "It's not like other planets standards of beauty are the same. I may look good to an earthling but look ugly to a Klaxosape," ("Not in this case. You will look good to any specie because Charm is a universal stats,") The system responded. "Can it help me save Falco? Or bring Teemee back?" Gustav asked. ("...") "No? Then it is useless," Gustav added before taking a seat. "How long till disqualified planets begin leaving?" Gustav asked after a brief silence. ("Some leave immediately, some are waiting till IYSOP ends but I know why you're asking,") The system replied. ("They're still undergoing medical procedures so they will be here for a while,") The system added. "Good... now the games can begin," Gustav muttered with a cold tone. ... The night went by very quickly and the next morning arrived. Everyone still discussed how the last major challenge went. Earth and Gustav remained one of the major debates amongst these discussions. Some were wary of Gustav at this point and wondered if it was okay for someone who could take others supernatural ability to be allowed free will and movement. They didn't know if this power affected aliens or was only capable of affecting mixedbloods but they were still concerned. Others could care less and only spoke of Gustav reverence. A lot of them who were aliens had developed a great amount of liking and respect for him. Stories about him began to spread everywhere. His accomplishments as an MBO officer even before IYSOP began. Rumors about him being a Cosmic Superior Being had also started escalating. Cosmic Superior beings were extremely rare to the point that the last time anyone ran into one was over two hundred years ago. It was unknown how many Cosmic Superior Beings existed at the moment but it was estimated that there might not be more than ten of them in this vast universe. A new Cosmic Superior Being was unlikely... but based on everything Gustav had done so far, a lot of people believed the rumors. This was happening despite the fact that Gustav had used Yarki at a moment where time was being manipulated. No one except people like Miss Aimee should have been able to witness him use it and yet the rumors had spread. Still there was a lot of back and forth especially with many people saying, "If he was a Cosmic Superior Being, he wouldn't even need to fight," There was no doubt that Gustav and the earth would be a topic of debate for the next couple of days unless something else arose. ... In an IYSOP medical centre, a group of five people laid on a bed of sorts. These five were positioned close to one another as they seemed to be suffering from the same ailment. They had wrinkly transparent skins and very thin figures. Their limbs were bent like they were elastic due to how extremely thin they were. It seemed like they were very old beings. Technological medical equipments were strapped to their bodies, seemingly preventing them from kicking the bucket. An Ozis in red medical outfit walked in and began examining these beings one after "How are you feeling? Much better?" She questioned. "I am trying doctor... my back aches and I feel joint pains..." The wrinkly being the other. It seemed to be a female Ozis. She spoke to them one after the other with a kind tone asking how they feel and generally showing concern. They answered one after the other and she did her examinations till she arrived at the last one on the far left end. "How are you feeling? Much better?" She questioned. "I am trying doctor... my back aches and I feel joint pains..." The wrinkly being answered feebly. "Sorry about that, I will administer a drug that will ease your pains," She said while whipping out a massive tool that looked like a syringe. "Thank you doctor..." The moment he uttered these words he suddenly felt a small sting. "Doc... tor...?" He voiced weakly while looking up at the doctor who displayed a sinister smile after stabbing the syringe like tool into his wrinkly arm. He caught a glimpse of the purplish liquid the tool held before it completely penterated his body. "...It... hurts..." It was at this point he realised that this wasn't the doctor. A sharp pain assaulted his senses as he felt a burning sensation spread across his body. "Arrrrghhhh!" He yelled in pain while the doctor quickly covered his mouth. "Wuubbllhhhrrrh!" His entire body shook as he experienced pain unlike anything he ever felt before. "I told you I'd make you suffer hehehe..." The doctor whispered in his ear while covering his mouth. His joints were flaming, his skin felt like it was getting sliced through and pepper was being added. It seemed like hot rod was moving through his belly and ultimately the feeling of all sorts of pain interlined. "This is just the start... I will come everyday... watch out... I could be your doctor, your teammate, your brother, your father or even your uncle. I could be anyone so make sure you fear the approach of any soul regardless of who it might be... remember today and cry in dread anytime a person gets close to you. I am everywhere..." The moment the doctor finished saying this, she let go of the sickly being who kept trembling intensely in pain and fear. "Urrrghhhh!" Orimon yelled in pain once more but the doctor turned invisible and completely vanished before anyone could come check on them. "Arrrrghhh! It burns! It burns!" He kept yelling while the real medical officials trotted into the room with expressions of worry. ####### ("You sure are having fun,") The system voiced in Gustav's mind after he reappeared within his room. "Only fair to make him suffer enough before sending him to join Teemee. A good tribute too," Gustav respomded while his figure transformed from an Ozis into his original look. ("Well... It does seem like there is no point in trying to win the case anymore since they already got disqualified,") The system voiced with a tone of understanding. It was indeed as the system said. The Xionsis got disqualified along with every other planet under a different color than red. Now that they were disqualified, earth could no longer take up the case of trying to prove that the murder had been intentional and not accidental. The point of all that was to get them disqualified in the first place and now they were. Join My Discord Server
