The Bloodline System
1300 You're Not Marh!
Author's Note: Unedited Chapter
---------------------
Truly other planets that lost one or two representatives didn't make a huge fuss out of it like Earth was doing but Gustav didn't care about all the remarks flying around. If the others were unconcerned about losing lives of loved ones, that was their business. As for him, he would make sure the Xionsis paid dearly.
"You've been avoiding me," The moment Gustav stepped into the residential quarters he voiced out.
"Big brother..." Endric mumbled with a slightly guilty expression before turning away.
"And you're still doing it," Gustav voiced.
"i am not... I just have something to do," Endric said while stepping forward.
Pah!
Gustav grabbed Endric by the arm before he could move away, stopping him in his tracks.
"What are you feeling guilty about?" Gustav questioned.
Endric's heart missed a beat the moment he heard that.
"I... I am not..." Endric stuttered for a bit before Gustav chimed in.
"Don't lie to me... I only recently just accepted you as my little brother. Don't make me regret that action," Gustav tone was so cold, it took effect on the atmosphere.
Endric's heart sank to his stomach. His face had turned extra white as he pictured worst case scenarios.
"Big brother I... I am just feeling the same as everyone. We are mourning Teemee's loss, are we not? And we all feel guilty about being unable to save him..." Endric spoke without turning his face around.
"Tell me something... did you see it...?" Gustav questioned with a suspicious tone.
"See what?" Endric's lips quivered since he knew exactly what Gustav was asking about but still decided to play dumb.
"Don't mess around... You're a time candidate. To an extent you can perceive coming events before they happen. Did you see it? Did you know the attack was coming?" Gustav reiterated with a strong tone of suspicion.
"It was too late when I did... I may be a time candidate but I can't see everything," Endric replied with a remorseful tone.
"Hmm... Okay," Gustav let Endric go and turned around to head to the passageway.
Endric heaved a sigh of relief as Gustav approached the passageway but then he suddenly stopped.
"If I ever find out that you know more than you are letting on... You will come to regret it," Gustav stated with a strong tone.
"Whatever it is you're hiding, make sure you take it to the grave with you," Gustav's voice trailed off as he walked away.
Endric was visibly shaken and stood in place for many seconds without moving. He gulped down saliva in fear as his mind roamed with thoughts.
'How could I tell him I betrayed the trust of a loved one for him? How could I tell him I took over three million lives to make his better...? How could I tell him that even after the lives I sacrificed, I still failed to protect two of his loved ones? How could I possibly tell him I that I was aware of their deaths before it happened? How can I tell him I am a piece of shit!?' Endric's lips quivered as he tightened his fist in pain and helplessness.
He remained in place for minutes before he finally stepped forward.
'Will you come clean to him?' Husarius asked internally.
'I don't know... I think he will hate me if I do...' Endric responded with a look of defeat.
...
Nigthfall arrived very quickly and at this point the golden streets had less traffic as well as the air. The massive arena was extremely quiet and void of live... or so it seemed.
At a part of the outskirts of the arena, a being covered completely with bandage like black clothes could be seen in a squatting position. Dark mist emitted from this being with hollow pitch black eyes as they carved an unknown symbol onto the arena backwalls.
// <> \\
■■■
\\ <> //
After carving out the symbol, a small white glow shone across the edges of the carving before it suddenly vanished.
In the next moment, it looked like nothing had been carved in that area.
The dark clothed being stood upright and nodded probably in satisfaction. The moment they turned around to leave a face appeared their line of sight.
Grab!
It had come as a jump scare as this face was only inches from theirs the moment they turned around but the figure grabbed them before they could jump back instinctively.
The dark being struggled continuously as the figure wrapped their hands around the being's neck. The dark being was unable to release itself no matter how much they tried. This figure was just too strong and soon caused the dark being to pass out very quickly.
-
Minutes later, the dark being clad in black bandage like clothes could be seen approaching Indulus Prime residential quarters.
He arrived before the entrance and it opened up for him automatically. The moment he stepped in, it was like he had just arrived within a different world.
Cold... extreme coldness and humidity swept across the air.
The ceiling had disappeared. There was no passageway, no walls, no doors, no furnitures or anything else that would be present in a normal participants residential quarters... Just total darkness...
It looked like a world of endless darkness that extended forever. Anyone would get lost in this world since there was no sense of navigation but the dark figure continued to stroll through this void world.
After what seemed like forever, the dark figure could spot other dark figures similar to himself in the distance.
"You're late Marh... did you get it done?" Indulus Prime Captain questioned.
"Yes... all done," Marh responded after arriving before the group of nineteen.
"Good good... hold on... why can't I sense our connection?" Indulus Prime Captain questioned while moving closer to Marh.
Marh stood in place without answering.
"Oh another distant disconnect..." Indulus Prime Captain voiced with a tone of understanding.
"We have to report our progress to Prime Ji right now," One of the other Indulus Prime members voiced.
"I'll have to fix this connection problem later... Time to report to Prime Vessel Ji," Captain Irand stated before turning to the side.
Everyone gathered around and formed a circle in the next moment.
"Artu oixa riw skx qi vri eit melu...." Mist emitted from everyone's figure as Captain Irand began chanting with his eyes closed.
The environment was already extremely dark so it would be impossible to see dark mist here or even the dark figures, however, these figures could see each other clearly along with the mist.
After a couple of seconds...
Fhrrroouuummm~
A pair of deep dark eyes appeared in their midst. Everyone instantly bowed upon the appearance of these large dark eyes.
"Prime Vessel Ji," They voiced with respect, causing their unified voices to echoe across this dark space.
"How are the preparations going?" A voice boomed across the dark space, radiating with power and vibrance.
"All preparations are almost finished. Before the last challenge comes to an end, it will be activated," Captain Irand stated.
"And are you sure the outworldly will be in the midst of it?" Prime Vessel Ji questioned.
"Leave that to us, Prime Vessel Ji," Captain Irand spoke.
Everyone else was quiet while Captain Irand made the reports and answered any question Prime Vessel Ji threw at him.
"The offspring... tell me have you seen him?" Prime Vessel Ji inquired.
"Not for a long time. I heard something happened to him," Captain Irand answered.
"Unbelievable... that means the Lord did it. He truly interfered," Prime Vessel Ji tone was laced with astonishment and adoration.
"Uh? Prime Vessel Ji are you saying...?" Captain Irand was just as shocked as he responded.
"Yes... that offspring... he must really be fond of. This also means I have a new task for you," Prime Vessel Ji stated with a tone of seriousness.
"Anything you wish," Captain Irand replied.
"Bring back... *sniff sniff* what is that foul smell I perceive," Prime Vessel Ji suddenly paused while his deep dark eyes darted around.
"Foul smell? Prime Vessel Ji... I do not kn..." Captain Irand suddenly paused and turned to the side.
"I smell it too... faintly..." Captain Irand spoke with a tone of confusion.
"That would mean an unwanted presence is in our midst... Irand you fool! One of your clones is not a clone!" Prime Vesel Ji voice boomed thunderously as his gaze settled on the Indulus Prime participant that arrived the latest.
"Marh!? You're not Marh! Who are you?" Captain Irand questioned with a strong tone while staring at the teammate.
...
Cheers! Chatter! Chatter! Cheers!
The next morning had arrived and everyone had gathered in the Arena as usual. Loud cheers of excitement rang out from the spectators area as the participants made their way to the middle of the arena.
Thwwhiii~
Handler One appeared on the screens, standing on his usual podium and began addressing the audience.
"Today's challenge is called THE MEDALLION!"
In the next instant, the screens displayed a list of all the planets and then proceeded to start categorising them.
The colors, Red, Blue, Yellow and Green were tabled out vividly.
