Chapter 11 - Colt’s devious plan

[scene : Colt is in his room, the morning sun is shining through the window, the view closes in on Colt, we see he's wide awake, waiting and thinking]

After what I've seen I don't really have another choice.

If I threaten him he'll shout his lungs out as soon as I leave. Then, even if I kill him later.. the nobles won't leave this domain in peace.

They might even send someone worse as punishment.

I don't have another choice.

Survive ,survive ,protect, save, survive.

Threat, kill, eliminate, threat.

Oh …that's right.. this isn't earth … normal morals don't apply here.

The morals that allow that pig to run free..

Those are what governs this world..

And those are what governed earth.. difference is: I can do something about it.

Survival.. survive, Mark, Clarissa, protect, save..

*Clarissa gently opens the door, enters the room*

Clarissa [gently] : "Wake up, it's time for school".

Colt [weakly] : "I can't."

[ Clarissa puts her hand on his forehead]

Clarissa [ worried ] : "You're burning up, are you sick?"

I don't need to mess with her this time, I'm not in the mood either… and I don't want her staying…

Colt [weakly] : "No ,I'll be fine tomorrow ,promise ,just need to rest."

Clarissa [leaving and closing the door] : "Such a good boy ,rest then".

Too easy.

Heating my forehead with an ice lens and sunlight was brilliant.

*Colt gets up*

I thought of using fire but , I deemed it too dangerous.

I made the ice by making water molecules closer , that simple.

I need to upgrade that as well.

*Heads to the window.*

Now for the mission.

"invisibility"

*Colt fades, the window opens and closes.*

[scene : Invisible Colt staring at the wall of the lord's mansion]

I can easily get in and out by bending the fence or the bars of the gate if I needed.

But, after mastering water prison I learned that…

If I know about a certain constant I can set its value however I want.

This is untested but if it works then that's another OP skill.

set G = 0

*Invisible Colt starts floating*

I can't believe that actually worked.

Since it's a constant, it equals 6.67430 × 10^(-11) no matter where in the universe you are.

What varies with each planet is g (gravitational acceleration).

So by setting G to 0 I nullified the gravitational force on me.

Now by wind magic.. control my movements.

*Invisible Colt floats above the fence and lands on the other side.*

I dub you "float"... I need to upgrade it later.

*His feet touch the ground*

Aaand nailed it!

Now to sneak inside..

[scene : Colt in the D.L's room staring daggers at him sleeping ]

That lazy pig is asleep like a baby with a guilt-free conscience.

People are dying you damned…

*Colt creates the gas.*

*Colt takes out the blood filled syringe and injects the D.L*

He should develop a fever in 24 to 72 hours.

Let's hope his immune system isn't strong enough..

Now to head home.

[Two days later in school before class starts]

[Colt enters the classroom to find Ken and Bella ]

Ken's alright! I don't know if it's the antibiotics or his immune system.

Either way, it's good that my efforts weren't wasted.

Ken [ with a bright and cheerful smile ]"Hey Colt, thanks for visiting the other day."

Colt [smiles calmly]: "It's all thanks to Bella."

*Bella blushes*

Ken : "Hey , did you hear? they say the domain lord is sick and is in pretty bad shape."

Well, I didn't give a though to sanitizing the needle so…

Bella : "Yeah I heard a healer is coming to treat him."

OK , what?!! a healer?! In this backwater town?!

Let's get it straight.

Colt : "You mean with healing magic or…?"

Bella [ visible confusion]: "How else can you treat a sick person?!!!"

Great, so healing magic does exist.

But we'll have time to dwell on it later.

For now …

Colt : "When will he be here??"

Bella : "Tomorrow I think."

Kids and their gossip … never disappoints.

I'll need to end it today then.

[scene : Colt's snuck in again to the D.L's room ]

*After the gas*

Colt [with resentment] :"This is the last time you inhale this gas you waste of space. *moment of silence* You embody everything I despise .But at least you're better than those on earth… at least you were open about being trash. I won't be seeing your face again."

*Injects air near the heart*

Time to head home.

[Colt narrating in the background]

After that the old domain lord came back from retirement until they find a suitable person.

[scene : The kind old man signing a paper]

And the first two things he did : he lowered the taxes to 5 copper or 0.5 large copper.. half of what they were originally

[scene : The old man giving food to some people accompanied by Mark and other men]

and the second was he handed out food to the hungry as a way of apology.

[scene : The view closes in on Mark's house, shows Colt looking through the closed window, a combination of pride and darkness in his eyes, his face holds no emotion or reaction]

I don't know if what I did was good or bad…

And I honestly don't care or regret it…

[We see some kids playing, that was what Colt was looking at]

And ,looking at these results

[In the void, flickers of dark green flame emerge]

I'd do it a thousand times
