Chereads / Immortals life / Chapter 25 - Traveller

Chapter 25 - Traveller

After Alex cut off the call Eon ponder for a while whether he should obey the order or not.

It was like hanging on a cliff if he obeys the order he will be certainly ambushed by Silicon Cult but if he does not obey the order Alex will surely make him do an impossible task again which will have high fatality rates for sure.

Lin and Angelica who were sitting at the side did not distract him from his deep thoughts.

Seeing that it is getting nowhere Lin spoke to end the silence and focus back to the topic.

"Eon your thoughts are getting you nowhere so it's best to share what you are thinking"

Eon looked at Lin for a while before speaking "Well the thing is that if I obey the order I have to cancel all the dates plan I had with Sage which is really annoying and I feared that I will truly kill that bastard because of the annoyance he caused, which will result in a penalty from 'Order of the Guardians' for sure, not even my father could protect me this time"

"If I disobey direct order I will be sent to some forsaken planet with high fatality rates mission which I will love for sure, but then again I will not able to see Sage for while which will result in the destruction of that godforsaken planet".

Lin and Angelica were looking speechlessly at Eon who went again into deep thoughts.

Lin who couldn't take it anymore said with a slight irritation in her voice.

"If you are unable to choose between such thing then why the hell are you even thinking, just obeyed the order after your first date is it too hard to think of this matter!".

"Well let's do what you say .…and yeah did you bring S-10 with you today?".

This time Lin looked seriously at Eon without any look of her casual self who took everything for granted.

"Are you sure about that… it's the same Armor as you use currently which can block anything below Colossal level.

In fact, these monster are only circulating among the faction who had diehard loyalty to Alex and your diehard faction

"In case you give her access this technology, then make sure she understands the weight she has to carry if she accepts this and what would her political standing will be, are we clear?".

(Power level- level 1 to 9, Immortal, Experimental, Hazard, Berserk, Colossal. Levels are arranged in increasing order).

"Yes, well colossal level can only kill by plasma weapons and basically this armour can only withstand half a dozen of their strike so that ought to be enough to protect her impending doom when I unable to protect her".

*Sigh*

Eon let out a sigh of disappointment at the end of the sentence like be regretted something very much.

"If you want to protect her so much why don't you just stay by her side 24*7 she will surely cuddle you like a teddy bear all time".

"It sounds nice but I am not sure if I can stay by her side even I would not, she will be uncomfortable... And uncomfortable Sage is pretty much a heart breaker..... well whatever brings me S-10 I have a date plan with her at 10".

Lin looked at Eon for a while before getting up and walks towards the wardrobe and picked to pick up a briefcase of about 25L capacity. She bought it out and place it on teapoy in front of Eon.

"I will say this once so listen carefully if you give this to her then make sure she remains loyal to you no matter what".

"I know that I will test her first before giving this to her"

Eon said with a serious expression on his face, unlike his uncaring attitude.

"Well, here I go…. Bye".

As soon as Eon said this he picks up the briefcase and disappears from the place.

Seeing this Lin was stunned and asked Angelica

"What's the time?"

"9:58"

Hearing Angelica reply Lin sigh and a slight worry crept on her face.

___________________________________

Outside Sage's room, Eon was standing and looking at the clock in his Skylink in his wrist. As soon as the digital meter hit 10 Eon knocked on the door twice.

After some time the door opens itself as Sage was standing at the entrance of her room.

Eon looked at Sage carefully she had done her crimson hair in curls which were little more than shoulder length. She had worn a grey and black stripe sleeveless blouse coupled with black mini jeans and snow-white knee-length shrugs.

Eon looked at her hourglass shape body and then his eyes where landed on her breasts 'hmm..what size'.

"It's 34D do you like it?".

This abrupt question from Sage startled him for a bit before answering.

"Well, it sure pumped me u…."

Eon bit his tongue without finishing the sentence which comes out because of his regular relax attitude.

"Heh… you are as flirtatious as rumours suggest you to be Eon".

Sage grin at him as she took a step back and close the door on his face without any hesitation.

Eon who saw this quickly reached out his hand when the door was almost close and slightly pushed door so as to let his face pass through.

"Hey, come on is door slamming your hobby or what, let's first have a long conversation in your room to calm you down what do you think ".

"Mr Turf, I have to say this, after reading your superficial information I really wanted to shut that door on your face. It was really hard to resist that urge".

Sage replied with a monotone while Beth who was watching this was laughing inwardly with a gleeful expression on her face.

"Well, that's my speciality to get on everyone nerves don't take it to your heart, you will get used to it, Sage".

"I have certainly got used to it"

Sage let out a chuckle opened the door letting him in the room.

Beth quickly adjusts her expression as she quickly recovers her casual attitude on the sofa ignoring Eon's gaze.

"I assume you have retrieved my information from the Roswell corp. right?".

Eon ignored Beth whose shoulder was shuddering from intense laughter on the sofa.

"I would prefer to say it as a filter data, considering that half of it was incomplete".

Sage sat on the sofa which was right next to Beth she crossed her legs and leaned while crossing her hand.

"Come on that's more than enough, after reading this you will be able to differentiate between rumours and real tales about me".

"Oh don't get me going. What really pissed me off is that you have more than hundreds of rumours surrounding you, of those what concerns me, was your relationship with Rebecca ".

"Oh, that will take a whole lot of explanation on her part so when we will have a get together let's discuss it then".

"I am not in the mood to make my kid sister hate me so you better clear things with her first".

"Hey we are just partner in crime and I am not her type"

After replying to Sage, he looked at Beth as he continues with a sly grin on his face.

"Hey, Serah can be considered your nanny right?".

"Yes, she is almost like a mother figure since my mother passed away during my early ages, but why do you ask?".

"Well after your father provocation she was very tasty….sorry I mean feisty, so I tamed her a bit you should go check on her"

As soon as she heard this Beth become uneased as she remembered that Serah was captured by Eon last night which she totally forgets as she enters Sage's room and considering the rumours as well as Serah beauty she comes to a conclusion she tried to avoid till the end 'Here it comes'.

Saying no more Beth gets up and excused herself before exiting the room hurriedly.

"You are worst than a beast….."

Sage who understand the underlying meaning said with a disgusted look on her face.

"That was not my fault she used her charm magic on me and tried to make me her familiar, though the role had been reversed and as for the latter part I had practically been restraining myself from being charmed.

" Any men even he is a colossal level or has a will power as strong a monk except those who swing that way will find it hard to suppress themselves under being charmed for more than 30 mins and she could consider her self lucky… "

Sage heard his explanation and did not respond to it, while Eon who was caught up in the act sigh while answer in casual attitude.

"Well don't look at me like this it's all fair when you are alone"

Sage looked at Eon for a few minutes and said with rather a casual tone which was unexpected for him.

"I already have someone that I liked so you don't have to waste your precious time".

"I don't know".

"I liked him for a while now".

"I don't care".

"Hs had already kissed me".

"He has a death wish?".

Sage stared at Eon's eyes who replied with an unexpected answer which made her speechless for a bit.

"You should then honour the bet, cancel the marriage and join my organization".

"That I cannot do our marriage had been announced the bet was only applied when it was a secret".

"You never change…. Well if you are worried about Aslan, then don't worry cause they will prevail for while".

"Well, I am not worried as they are under surveillance all the time, what we are worried about is enemy....".

"Who lies beyond the 'Nova Border' ".

Sage interrupted Eon as she completed the sentence which alarmed Eon.

"Who?"

"Non-carbon life forms or you can call them Lithic".

"When?".

"It's 9999 this year it will be 10,000 or 1 AU year, hmm Galactic government formed by several Empires will surely start a new era which will be called 'Age of Unification'

"So the attack should be around 96AU, there are is several decades left".

At this point, Eon looked dead serious as he stared Sage who was having a nonchalant expression on her face.

"From where…did.. you….heard this Sage?"

Eon looked at Sage who was and asked in a shaky voice which stunned Sage for a few second and unable to react before Eon stands and flared UP!!!

"WHERE DID YOU HERE THIS!!!"

An oppressing aura quickly surrounded Eon which made Sage drown in his aura unable to speak but through her newly achieved will power from her future self she was able to withstand it and call out for Eon

"E..on...".

Responding to her words Eon snap back to his sense as he asked Sage in a shaky voice with anger and fear written all over his face.

"Come on Sage…..this is not the time for a joke you are just saying things, someone had told you about right. There is no way in hell you are one of them.

" Tell me….tell me the name of the bastard who said this to you, name that BASTARD!!!"

*BHAM*

At the end of his sentence, Eon slammed his hands on both the side of the armrest on which Sage was sitting while restricting his madness with great efforts.

Sage quickly come back to her senses and looked at Eon who had unwillingness and twisted thoughts written all over his face for few second.

She placed both her hand on Eons face and said with a little unsettled tone but caring tone.

"You are as twisted as you can get both in present and future you need to let it all go sometime Eon".

As she said these Eon eyes constrict indicating the shock he had received.

In his entire time in Earth Eon not for a single second showed bis twisted personality in front of anyone, in fact, he was living a peaceful life that he yearns for many years but his truth has been exposed in a sentence from the person with least anticipated manner.

Eon quickly snapped out of his shock and shove aside Sage hand as he walked out of the room.

Before leaving the room Eon halts for a second and then said.

"A package will be delivered by Edgar receive it if you want to obtain what inside you have to clear a test set by the item itself".

After saying this Eon exit the room before closing the door Eon produce a ball of energy and send her to Sage before heading strat to his room.

'Package? What package?…wait…argggghhh… '.

Sage s screamed as a strong headache washed over her as the memory of her future self started to recover bit by bit, the pain in her head becomes unbearable at a point she was almost at the verge of death.

Suddenly a ball of energy enter her body and start circulating in her body enhancing her physical and mental fortitude thereby lessen the pain in her head.

A few minutes later she gradually started to recover when there was a knock on her door which jolted her awake from her trance, she walked toward the door and open

Outside the door a young man was standing with a briefcase, he had blond hair and burly build with blue eyes, it was none other than Edgar.

Edgar was slightly startled as he sees Sage in a dishevelled state, with a concern he asked her.

"What happened you are completely dishevelled did you just woke up?", after waiting for a while with no answer so he continued "Well if you do not want to answer then so be it, here take this briefcase this is addressed to you".

Sage grabbed the briefcase thanked Edgar and closed the door and made her way to her bed.

She placed the briefcase on the bed and open it with shaky hands.

As she opened the briefcase tears started to fell from her eyes as she cried out loudly.

_____________________________________________

Eon who dashed from Sage room arrived inside his room within seconds where he saw Lin and Angelica were looking at him rather strangely.

Without wasting time he said in a slow but audible voice which content he suppresses anger.

"Sage… she is one of the Chosen".

"WHAT!!!" X2

As Eon said this both Lin and Angelica are both shocks as this was very abrupt, not even one hour has passed but Sage become a Chosen in that time

"I need to quickly leave this ship fast prepare a ship to Rois a fast one".

"Wait why are you in such a hurry it's an optimistic situation we are getting a new chosen one what's her type".

"Traveller she has course back in time approximately 97 years, she knows about Lithic war".

This time Lin who was surprised at first turn solemn replied with a little sympathy in her voice.

In truth, Eon wanted to quickly finish the related to Itto Shura so that he can sort out the matter related to Sage without any concern and as for explanation why the hell did he ever explain anything to anyone he has the authority to do so why does he have to lower his status quo.

"Okay, I will prepare a ship anything else".

"Find that Joker we met on our way to Earth and give her his location".

"Are you sure?".

"Just follow the Fucking order!!!".

As he said this Eon walked out of the room towards the hanger bay.

Angelica looked at Lin who was the first time was refuted by Eon in front of her in with such high tone, with curiosity she inquired Lin with an uneasy tone.

"What happens? Why he is so furious".

"Because he hates travellers the most".
