[scene : A bird's eye view of the wasteland continent, the view pierces through some clouds to show a castle, the view rotates around, showing the beautiful garden, the flowers and trees up front, then the swimming pool. All of it overlooking the sea. The view enters the castle showing Colt sitting on a chair, one leg on top of the other, head resting on his fist, elbow resting on the chair]
*Colt slowly raises his head, puts his leg down*
One final test before we head out.
*Colt slowly stands up, walks outside, pauses to look at the view*
I really am proud of what I did here.. and it only took two years.
Living in a place like this, away from humans, away from oppression, in a distant land where only I can reach.
*Smiles*
Colt [speaking internally and externally] : "That's the way to live."
*Colt turns around, walks inside the castle, takes a corridor leading to the back, he steps outside, takes a deep breath*
Colt : "Nothing better than the smell of fresh crops."
*The view expands to show fields full of different plants : wheat, carrots, potatoes, tomatoes.. etc*
*Next to the fields There was an empty space and far in the distance, the walls tower, protecting the castle*
*Colt walks slowly looking around*
Nothing can grow there.. yeah right
The soil was just too acidic
*Colt touches a tree, supplies it with magic using a healing spell, apples grow on the branches, Colt uses wind cutter, an apple falls right in his hand, takes a bite, looks back at the castle*
Never thought it could be done.. with all those obstacles I had to destroy.
[flash back]
[scene : Colt wakes up in a hurry inside a small earth shelter, hurries outside, finds a copper golem coming towards him]
Colt : "Oh come on, it's the third time today!!"
*Uses the "graviol" and earth lance combo to finish it off*
Colt : "NEXT"
*A giant ant comes rushing.*
*A giant earth bullet pierces it through the head.*
Colt[ looking around] : "Anyone else..? Didn't think so."
*Heads inside*
I wanted to know if humans had that much of a significant impact on the mana flow.. and sure enough, the more I stayed, the less frequent the attacks became.
Three times a day, once a day, three times a week, once a week and so on. Currently, it's once every few months, six or five
[Back to the present]
*Colt looks at the fields one last time.*
[flash back]
[scene : Colt growing wheat with magic]
After neutralizing the soil, I figured out this little trick. After that.. the rest is history. Now plants can grow under.. not-so-ideal conditions.
[Back to Colt standing in the vast empty space]
*Colt opens his item box, takes out something from inside, its light reflects on his face, it's a tablet*
Colt : "Let's see what Galileo sees today"
[flash back]
[scene : Colt standing in front of a satellite ]
*Colt smiles*
The first multipurpose satellite is complete.. now to launch it.
*Colt uses float on him and the satellite, flies up as high as he can, slowly controlling their trajectory*
*Then launches the satellite*
Colt : "Good luck, Galileo"
[Back to the present]
*Colt looks at the tablet thinking*
If you want to know about the science behind it go pour nitric acid on some stones.. but I can tell you this:
Using "atomic manipulation" enabled me to jump straight into diodes and transistors since they're just combinations of different metals on a very small scale
Which skipped thousands of years of progress, though it was a pain to make all of them.. which means I needed a better solution.
And that was.. Ooh this one's good enough
I don't usually yell out spell names but.. this one's worth it
Colt : "SUMMON METEOR."
*A giant flaming meteor bursts through the clouds heading right at the castle*
*Colt raises his hand, the meteor stops mid-air*
Colt : "Still got it"
Summon meteor, my ultimate spell, I use Galileo to track a meteor..
*Shows a meteor in space, then the view shifts a to a grid. A red arrow for force and a green one for velocity appear*
And since velocity and force are vectorial quantities, which means they have a magnitude and direction
*The arrows change direction, heading towards the planet*
I change the direction of the meteor and bring it to where I want it to go.
*Back to Colt watching the meteor mid-air*
I stop it with static and float before impact then send it back.
Unless I want to bring unimaginable destruction, which I don't.
Crazy thing is : That wasn't the main purpose of Galileo, I just wanted to find out more about this solar system.
Turns out the sun here is a bit hotter than our own, and this planet is the fourth from the sun.
Also, I found another continent, one that I've never heard of before.
Wonder what could be there…
Now that I have this power…
And a treasure continent to my name…
It's time to go back.
Get ready, main continent.. cause here I come!!!
*Smiles*
She said I could talk to her didn't she?
*Colt opens a gate, goes through it*
[scene : The other side of the gate leads to Luna's house]
*Colt knocks on Luna's door*
*Door opens, it's Luna*
Colt : "I'm ba-"
*Luna hugs him while crying*
Luna : "Where were you?? You didn't come back for 2 years, I was worried sick."
Worried??!!
*Lana comes from behind.*
Lana : "Luna, why are you cry-"
*Sees Colt, her eyes tear up as well*
Lana [turns around and yells] : "It's Colt, he's alive!!!"
Alive??!! Did they actually think I was dead??!! Really? why?
Luna [still crying, responding to his confusion] : "You never said when you'd come back .. we had a feeling you were about to do something dangerous we… I …*sobs*"
*Colt gently pats her on the back*
Colt : "There, there.. you trust me right? I said I'd be back."
Luna : "I know but, *sobs and clings harder*, I can't… not again… not anymore."
I can't understand a thing.
[scene : Everyone is inside the house, all gathered around Colt]
Zenon[mad and relieved] : "Where were you? You had us all worried about you, especially Luna."
Lana : "We actually thought you were dead."
Zeno : "Answer us !!!"
Colt [with a bright smile] : "The place known as : the wasteland continent."
*Everyone looks at Colt with awe and a hint of fear except Luna who stays quiet, her tears start to dry*
Levi [in denial] : "I know you like to mess around with people but, this isn't the time, get serious here."
Zeno : "You'd better tell the truth, young man."
Zenon[turns his head to look at Luna] : "He's kidding ri-"
*As he sees her serious and a bit gloomy face, he and everyone else freeze.*
*The fear in their eyes increase.*
What's with those looks? This isn't "the one that should not be named" type of thing is it??
Luna[stands up, walks slowly towards Colt] : "You didn't go to see your family yet?"
Colt : "No."
Luna : "You came here first."
Colt : "Yes."
Luna : "You don't want to tell anyone else about this?"
Colt : "Can't hide anything from you."
Luna : "Do you realize what it means?"
Colt : "Yes."
Luna : "No turning back, for either of us."
Colt : "True."
Luna[whispers in Colt's ear] : "You can't see me as a little sister anymore can you?"
Colt [whispers back] : "No…what about you?"
Luna [still whispering] : "Same as you."
*Luna moves back, sits to face Colt*
*Everyone just stays silent until this weird conversation is over*
Zenon : "What was that-"
*Lana , aware of what it means, pinches Zenon to stop him from asking*
Luna [with a warm cute smile] : "Tell us whatever you want… I trust you completely."
I definitely fell for the right person… this new life… is the best thing that ever happened to me.
Colt : " Long story short , I became the strongest."
Levi [recalling their past conversations and how Colt never admitted to be the strongest, in shock] : "If you are saying it… there isn't a hint of cockiness *panics* WHAT DID YOU DO??!!"
Colt : "I gained new powers, but most importantly, new knowledge, I know what the wasteland continent truly is…"
Zeno : "What it… truly is… what do you..?"
Colt : "It's a treasure trove, full of vast riches that only I know how to use."
Zeno : "Even so, how did you survive?? It's been said that nothing can survive there!!"
Colt : "I think that's an exaggeration."
Zeno : "If people were to find out… why tell us??"
Colt : "Because I trust you, and believe you won't misuse the power."
Zeno : "That's your logic !! What if we do?"
Luna : "We won't put you through it… don't worry."
Colt [sad smile] : "Can't keep anything from you huh?"
Luna : "I don't know when, but you've suffered enough."
I really fell for the right person.
Colt : "Thank you, Luna"
*Stays silent for a few seconds, looking at Luna*
Luna : "Say it."
Colt [smiles] : "I love you"
*Everyone stares in shock except Lana, her eyes fill with tears of joy*
Liam, Levi, Zeno[all of a sudden] : "Finally!"
Colt : "Wait, wha-"
Levi : "It was obvious, even if you didn't realize it."
Liam : "Saving this village time and again…"
Zeno : "Letting Agnar go just because Luna asked…"
Lana : "It was all there, the only ones who didn't know what was happening were you and Luna."
*Colt and Luna's faces turn red*
Zeno : "And finally, your show of these "fireworks". you went out of your way to make them right?"
Zenon [finally recovering from shock] : "If it was anyone else, I would've said he'd have to defeat me in combat … but, I know better…keep my daughter safe"
*Everyone laughs*
