I followed Mrs. Eve...
We both went to the place that she would show me. I didn't get it, but only Mrs. Eve and I were going to this place. So, everyone stayed with Mr. Adam
"Where are we going?" I asked Mrs.Eve
"Patient my child," She said. "we are going to the place you will like for sure."
We walked across a wide hall that looked like a neverending road. Somehow if I estimated the distance from the meeting room, it was about 120 meters.
"We are here," Mrs.Eve looked at me and smiled. "I hope you like the facilities we give you."
Mrs. Eve opened the fancy door that looked made from Painite. I could say that because the color is dark brownish and the door design looks like the door from the Palmer House Hilton, I cannot even describe it in detail. By the door itself, I can tell the room is beyond luxurious.
When the door opened, I can see a... bedroom. But it is nothing like a normal bedroom, it has so many facilities. The bed platform is made from carbon fiber and the bed is made from a latex mattress. The bed set came with handcrafted and guess what... It was handcrafted by three cyclopes. Well, the room has a carbon fiber couch, a completely futuristic computer setup, and a somehow futuristic TV set.
"What do you think about it?" Mrs. Eve asked me.
"Is this for me?" I was so amazed by the bedroom.
"Of course all of these, just for you." She said. "Unless you wanna bring your girlfriend over here, it will be for the both of you."
"Let me show you, your secret room." She continued.
"Secret?" I asked.
"Yes, It is a secret that only you will set the access here after I show you." She smiled.
We went to the door nearby the computer set up, it's on the right side of my bed. The left side is actually a wide and long window with the city of Atlantis view. Trust me, the view is second to the best about my room. Not to mention that the bathroom is just luxurious as the bedroom.
we were in front of the second door, this door a bit different. It looks like a futuristic sci-fi door with white as a color. It is color white because the theme of my room is black and white. Although it looks like sci-fi somehow the door complex design has an Atlantean accent on it. Atlantean arts and design are almost the same as Greco-Roman, the difference is just Atlantean has this kind of Aqua vibes on it. The door has this hologram circle in the middle. It says 'πρόσβαση' or 'prósvasi' which means 'enter' in English.
"Put your hand in that circle, my dear," She said while she touch my right shoulder.
"Alright, Mrs. Eve." I put my right hand on it.
About a second after I put my hand, we could hear a woman's voice.
"Processing..." The voice spoke. "Analyzing the key access..."
There was a nano-green laser scanning my whole body, it was scanning quickly.
"Access renewed..." The Voice said. "Welcome Zack, my name is Anthea; Starting today I will serve you as your intelligence Buttler system. You can connect with me everywhere you go."
"For your access through the door please says 'Open the door'" She continued.
Well, I was not surprised by artificial Intelligence, but connecting everywhere is something beyond the AI in the world's technology. Atlantis sure has some advanced technology on its own tier.
"Open the door," I commanded
The door widely open, and I couldn't say any more words...
"Welcome to your only access to your private stash and armory." Mrs. Eve said.
What the...
That were the only words I could say from my lips. I was stunned by how big it was, the weapons such as swords, shields, daggers, spears, sticks, and of course guns... the room is so massive, that every weapon has its own section. Then I saw a room with the words Eidikós, It means special in English.
Remember when I said the view is the second-best access?
Well, this enormous weapon stash is the best one.
"These are yours..." Mrs. Eve told me.
"I don't understand..." I was still in awe. "Why do you guys provide a lot of weapons for me?"
Mrs. Eve smiled at me.
"We did not," She said. "It was owned by your father."
"What?" I shocked. "My father owned these?"
"Indeed my dear, he was a special agent for Atlantis," She said. "I did not know exactly if he collected it, but I do know that your father keeps many legendary weapons that existed in this world. He was able to collect all after he defeated the four empires twenty years ago."
"If he defeated them, why are they still alive?" I was confused.
"He did not kill them but, he was able to make them retreat from the war." She said. "Some of the legendary weapons cannot be used, because the specific weapon is still sealed to prevent the enemy to use its weapon."
"Why?" I was curious.
"Because some of them belong to the descendants of the four empires." She said. "The weapon can only be used by a specific person such as Thor and Odin..."
"Like it was crafted only for them?" I asked again.
"Yes my dear," She said. "Take a look."
She opened the special weapon rooms, and she is right. There are two legendary weapons that are sealed in a big tube with so many gold chains tied surround the weapons.
"Thor's Mjolnir and Odin's Gungnir cannot be used." She said. "Because Thor and Odin are still alive."
"But... You can use the other weapons," She still continued. "Your father was able to collect legendary weapons all over the world, but only one weapon that he cannot provide for you."
"And what is it?" I was curious.
"It was Excalibur that still holds by the lady of the lake after Arthur died in the hand of Poseidon," she said.
"Did you just say King Arthur died because of Poseidon?" I started to disbelieve my history class.
She looked at me with a motherly smile at me, she didn't surprise by my reaction after all.
"Listen," She said. "Whatever your teacher told you, it was not true... history has so many versions after it passes to many generations. But, the truth is always the silent witness from the past."
"But... why they faked it?" I somehow feel betrayed by my own knowledge.
"No dear," She answered me. "not all the histories they faked it. It is just some of the history did not have the evidence. Thus, some histories became myths."
"That makes so much sense." I agreed.
She had a point.
We always believe in the facts; after all, it was always the reason why people don't believe in history with no evidence. It is hard for people to believe myths because they exist without a fact. It doesn't matter if there is a truth behind it, as long as there is no solid proof, all of the truth turns into some kind of lie. Somehow I found it stupid about humanity, they are just too addicted to reality. They forgot sometimes reality is beyond what reality is, and most of the time they buried the truth a thousand feet under their ego and pride. In another word, many of us refused the truth because we are afraid to lose what we believe.
"So much of that," She cut the conversation. "They are estimated three thousand guns, three hundred seventy-five melee weapons, and over one hundred forty-nine mythical and legendary weapons. Your armory is the complete weapon stash, last time your father told me, he has the weapon from back to three thousand years ago up to this date."
"The ones inside the special boxes are the oldest weapons in every section," She said. "Your father even recreate the sword of Arslantepe from five thousand years ago."
"Was my father this crazy about weapons?" I was amazed about it. "That's such an exact big amount of weapons you know here."
"I am afraid he was," She smiled. "I believe you will too."
"About the Excalibur," I asked. "Where can I find it?"
"You look a lot like him," She somehow could see me like my father. "Let's ask everyone about the Excalibur."
"Alright, your highness." I started to call her that.
I never know my dad was such a weapon freak, I guess Mrs. Eve was right. It is about time that I will become like my father. But I did realize that my dad was making it easier. He provided me with everything, even the biggest private weapon stash. Somehow he gave me a cheat code in advance, I guess the real problem was my will to fight.
such pressure...
"Let us go back to them," She said. " We will be discussing your training and your Excalibur request."
"Understood," I responded.
I supposed it will make it easier for me and the others to fight the four empires.
But... still... what a hassle day I had today.
