[27, 456, 789 Humans are watching you...]
'...What?' Cain thought, but before he could even begin to comprehend the situation, the Giant black bird thing he was previously watching twitched!
"Hnnn?"
Logically speaking, there was no way that bird thing was still alive! Cain had split its head in half! Yet its body did more than just twitching, Cain took a couple steps back as the Black bird thing slowly stood up. The sight of it standing up looked incredibly stupid. One could see its brain matter if they looked at the insides of its now too 'half' heads.
When the thing had reached its full height, one could easily notice that it was ,in fact, taller than Cain.
The black bird looked like a large *Emu. The only visible difference -apart from it's split skull- was it's 12 feet height and multicolored wings.
The bird spread out both of its wings, exposing its ridiculous 20 feet wing span and let out a loud "SCREECHHH!!!"
Cain still did not know what was going on, but as if to answer his question, he received a new prompt.
[ No more of the 'unclean' shall the Earth take]
'...' The prompt did little to answer his questions though, but that was a situation for another time because the Emu thing was now in front of Cain!
"SCREECHHH!" It bellowed as its split beak came crashing down on Cain. Cain Casually side stepped though, and with a swift motion of his hand, blood sprayed out of the bird's neck as its head slid to the ground.
The blow was fatal... is what i would have like to say, but completely undeterred, the now headless bird kicked at Cain with one of its 2 feet. Cain's expression now held even more confusion, but he easily evaded the bird's talon and appeared in front of it. He replied with a kick of his own as a loud 'Bam' rang out. The bird was sent flying and hit a tree.
Cain's expression hardened as he saw the Emu thing get up once again.
It gave a loud "SCREECH!" Or at least its head did as the giant , headless, body charged at Cain.
Cain's eyes lit up with an orange like glow as he watched the creature approach him.
"Incineration Call, first form." He said. As those words left his mouth, the air began to visibly sizzle and the forest around him started to blacken.
Cain raised his left hand and pointed his index finger at the creature. Then his hands drew a small orange-colored circle in the air as he muttered...
"Acreation disk." then, there was no then. All everyone saw was a bright flash of orange light . The circle that looked like something Doctor Strange would draw faded and nothing but destruction was left in its wake. The ashes of the forest had ashes and for as far as the regular eye could see, in a 'V' shape pattern there was nothing to 'see'.
The Emu monster had been well... incinerated.
At that moment, another global prompt rang out.
[Congratulations to streamer Cain Adamson for being the first to erase an Unclean!][Watch?]
The close to 50Million people now watching Cain immediately shot up!
[View(s): 55M]...[View(s): 105M]...[View(s):250M]...[View(s): 500M]
500 Million! If this was YouTube, then Cain would have instantly become the most popular 'streamer' on Earth!
Yet, this was the Soul Stream and Cain was indeed the most popular 'streamer' on it!
Seeing all the devastation he had caused, Cain's expression softened. 'Its been too long...' he thought. The smile on his face soon faded though as he brought up his Katana. It was covered in the Emu's reddish green blood. Cain's left arm lit up in a gentle flame as he traced the Katana's blade with his hand, erasing the blood in the process.
When the blade regained its silver sheen, he sheeted it and focused on the prompt that was still floating.
[500,694,567 humans are watching you...]
'Hmm, this is indeed a show.'
'And it seems like I'm now a streamer.' If his guess was correct, then he was currently 'streaming' and everyone on Earth could watch.
'...Alright, how do i turn it off though?' As if to answer his question, a new screen popped up.
[Turn off Stream?][Y/N]
Cain thought for a brief second before choosing Yes.
Slowly, the prompt showing the viewer count vanished and the stream ended.
Regardless though, the name Cain Adamson had been etched in the minds of millions...

The Russian president's POV immediately changed and he was back in the meeting. He looked around him and noticed everyone's astonished expression. So it wasn't just him.
Soon he looked towards the Black Luck representative and opened his mouth. Before anything could come out though, the prime minister of Spain looked in Han Sen's direction and asked "Is he one of yours?"
Han Sen stroked his beard before shaking his head. "No...but Alexis, can you see the prompts?" He asked. Soon a clearly synthetic -yet pleasant- female voice replied.
"Strangely, yes." She said. "Good, comb through everything and tell me what we've got." Han Sen replied. "Right away sir..." The synthetic voice replied.
Seeing the interaction between Han Sen and Alexis, Donald's eyebrows rose up as he asked "*AGI...?" While looking at Han Sen who just smiled but didn't answer.
"Sir, I've found some information." The synthetic voice said about 3 seconds later. "Good, speak." Han Sen replied.
"The name and face of the suspect matches a US citizen by the name Cain Adamson with an exact match of facial features and bodily traits. He was born on the 17th of July 1994. His parents are unknown, he has no family, and his residence is also unknown. Strangely , while combing through extensive data, I've been able to identify him in several...older scenes."
After saying that, multiple black and white holographic images popped up on screen for all to see. All the images had something in common. Cain's face was seen in all of them. Two of them even looked familiar. One was the World war 2 image from Cain's gallery, and the other was the image with Albert Einstein. Looks of surprise adorned everyone's face. That wasn't all though because the synthetic voice continued again.
"What is truly surprising though is the fact that his description matches one of our oldest records." The current images made way for new files containing painting and texts. The paintings contained images from different events, places, eras and cultures. But what the random gathering of paintings all had in common was once again the face of a dark skinned man.
"The texts contain records from civilizations in ancient Greece, Rome, Egypt and even the Mayans ,yet they all described the same anomaly. A man that never seemed to age. All who documented these are long dead. The last Black Luck researcher that pieced everything together and made it a concrete file died over 300 years ago. He was an English man named Lazarus Adams. "
"He designated the Anomaly number 006 A.K.A Mr Immortal. "
