Chapter 41 - Hell's One: One’s Intelligence Comes From Their Virtues (Past Arc)

Note: this is a past chapter ( not filler, it's canon), it doesn't focus on the current timeline of the story, reading this chapter won't be mandatory for the understanding of the story, but I would recommend this chapter for a more preferable experience, the choice is yours

8 Years Age At Neo-Geisters' Warehouse ( Main Base )

Wyatt says as he pulls out a quarter coin, "heads or tails?".

"I can't escape from your absolute power, I've got no choice but to play along, I'm going to go with heads", Hendrix says.

Wyatt then throws the quarter into the air, and it lands onto his fist.

The quarter landed on tails.

"Ding ding ding, we've got our sorry loser here", Wyatt says, "better luck next time, bud".

Wyatt then swings his index finger to barely touch Hendrix's chest, that touch was no ordinary touch whatsoever.

Almost like a water droplet dropping into a puddle of water.

That single touch results to the breaking of all the bones within Hendrix's body, not one is left unscathed or unfazed.

This…is power.

At The UN's Headquarters

Alastor and Lilitu just murdered the president of the United Nations general assembly, this was bound to gain attention from unwanted visitors.

"Shit, there was a camera that I didn't see", Alastor says.

"I told you to inspect this location before we interviewed the dead bastard!", Lilitu says, "I can't believe how much of an imbecile you could be at times".

Lilitu specifically implied to Alastor to inspect the area to avoid any unnecessary attention or damage, not to mention, they didn't get any of Neo-Geisters' militia, so they're kind of on their own.

They've got nothing but individual strength, that's all they could rely on right now.

"I've got an idea, you can go and hack their cctv systems, even if we destroyed that camera right now, they'd still have it saved onto their system", Lilitu says.

"And what are you going to do?", Alastor asks.

"I'll make it look like as if it was a suicide, a simple suicide that resulted from sudden panic", Lilitu says, "this'll support our propaganda's movement, let's turn our error into a trump card".

Alastor then exists the room where the interview was held.

The only reason this murder happened in the first place was because of the UN's lack of security, or rather, the security was easily manipulated.

35 Minutes Before The Assassination…

Lilitu and Alastor both arrive at the UN's headquarters, they just wait there in their car.

One of the security guards approaches their car, knocking on the window, so Lilitu pulls the window down.

"What's your business here?", the guard asks.

"Oh, we're just the maintenance crew, we heard about this place's toilets, and let me tell ya…their a huge mess", Lilitu says.

"Okay, you've got some way of confirming your profession?", the guard asks.

Alastor reaches in for the back of the car and gets a certain item to show the guard.

"Here, it's a plunger, no person would be holding onto one in the middle of New York, except us ofcoarse", Alastor says as he shows the plunger to the guard.

"C'mon now, I'm going to need some sort of ID", the guard says.

"Nah man don't worry, we work for a certain company that puts our IDs within the plungers themselves", Alastor says, "lean towards it and look, it ain't going to bite ya".

The guard leans towards the plunger to inspect it, but suddenly, the plunger fires a beam of flames at the guard, reducing his body to mere ash.

"Fenómeno Inverso!", Lilitu says to reverse the burning effect on the guard's uniform.

Lilitu is a devil that worked amongst a group of hybrids, the reason behind why he chose this path is unknown.

Fenómeno Inverso is an ability that causes its user to reverse the effects of a certain phenomenon, meaning that a person's life or item could return to their previous state that was available before a certain action took place.

( The user could also choose that person or item, it's all up to them )

"Good, Sanders picked a perfect day for us to attack, there was only one guard in front of the entrance", Lilitu says as he puts the guard's uniform on.

"So you're going to use THAT ability on the whole building, except the president of the UN, right?", Alastor asks.

"Yeah, I should be able to do it since I can enter the HQ now", Lilitu says, "wish me the best of luck".

Lilitu then exits the car and enters the headquarters.

He didn't have any sort of resentment towards the existence of mankind, he did it just for pleasure.

He just wants to watch the world burn within the depths of Hell's flames.

So, Lilitu walks to a certain concrete pillar and puts his palm onto it, "Diablo's Commandment!", Lilitu says, "all who hear me, I command you according to my absolute judgement, you shall drown into the depths of a bribery, for your soul is tainted".

Everyone that was within the boundaries of the UN's headquarters gather outside, almost as if they were controlled.

"You humans eat up any sort of bribery, materialistic or not", Lilitu says.

Diablo's Commandment is an ability that causes its user to make a command that's followed by whoever surrounds the user, the procedure goes on when a certain promise is made, but that promise must be a lie that would trick the tainted souls of those who utilize blasphemy.

(Tainted souls or also known as those who commit sins in a routine-like manner)

Meaning, that all of mankind could get affected by this ability, since all humans have committed a sin or two, that is certain.

So, right before the assassination occurred, Alastor killed the journalists that were waiting outside of the HQ, so that they were able to disguise themselves as the journalists that came to look for an interview with the president of the UN.

Sanders was able to get the exact day of the arrival of these two journalists.

The Neo-Geisters are flawless when it comes to planning out their atrocities.

Back At The CCTV Control Room Within The UN's Headquarters

"Okay, Ive entered the cctv control room, now what?", Alastor asks.

Lilitu gave Alastor an earpiece microphone, so he could guide Alastor to the servers.

"Great, now you should be able to see those server blocks somewhere in the room, correct?", Lilitu asks.

"Yeah, I see it, only one though", Alastor says, "that should make things a whole lot easier, they should have all the footage placed in here".

Lilitu did give a DVR (Digital Video Recorder) to Alastor, it contained footage of the president killing himself with pistol.

DVRs (Digital Video Recorders) and NVRs (Network Video Recorders) are external devices used to store video footage.

This was only possible because Lilitu used Fenómeno Inverso to reverse the death of the president, he then used Diablo's Commandment to command the president to kill himself.

"So, all you've got to do is to plug that DVR into the server plug, that should automatically replace the old footage with ours", Lilitu says, "while you're doing that, I'll write down a suicide note, that should make it believable".

So, Alastor plugs the DVR into the server block.

3 Minutes Later, When The Procedure's Over

"Okay, I'm going to assume that it's done now, I can't hear the cooling system within it anymore", Alastor says.

"Yeah, that should do it, come back to the room that we were in", Lilitu says.

A command so simple…yet so deceiving.

As soon as Alastor enters the room again, he finds Lilitu tied up, lying on the ground, who could be responsible for this?!

"Y'know, I had this slight feeling within me, I just knew that something like this would happen", Elias says.

"Impossible!", Alastor says, "I just heard Lilitu's voice on this earpiece".

"Yeah, so I just used this Voice Synthesizer to gather up genetic information from his body, that genetic information includes his voice, so now whenever I speak into this thing, it replicates his sound waves' frequencies and wavelengths", Elias says, "jeez, it takes a whole lotta effort to convince Captain Arlo to let me go and this is how I'm greeted, I had to explain a whole ass scientific procedure!".

Alastor feels this weird sensation, one that he hasn't gotten in a long time.

Humans show who they truly are when they're confronted by true power, either through one's presence or through one's physical capabilities, so humans just eat each other once they possess that power.

"Listen, I don't know who you are, but I'll have to end this the hard way", Alastor says.
