Chapter 3 - CHAPTER 3 : Adventure

What is the horizon?

Well one might argue that it's the line at which the Earth surface and the sky appear to meet together but.. for me it's a little different.

For me its the limit of a person's knowledge, experience, or interest. Yes , their limit.

But...

'I...have...no... limit'

'The only limit is myself '

I muttered that as I fly through the sky , breezing through with ease.

*Fuuuh*

The sound of air passing by me as I fly and resist it ,pushing through all the boundaries as there were no horizon, yes as there's no limit for me.

"Honestly I don't want to travel at the speed of light right now as I don't want to break physics or something, I'm afraid it might break the time barrier or somewhat kind "

"A barrier... actually I could try making that, maybe I could even try to copy that soldier , honestly I killed him too fast I mean they did annoyed me a little bit soo..."

"I'm not the one to be blame right? They did tried to kill me since they didn't even know that I couldn't die "

' I don't know why I'm not feeling even a little guilty after killing all those guys, I mean as a normal human we should at least feel something but meh..'

It seems I'm contemplating about my emotions as time pass. Am I losing my emotion as a sacrifice for absolute power? Or is it something else , honestly when I said I was annoyed, I wasn't truly felt annoyed like feeling butthurt such an example as the relationship between siblings but maybe I just tried to mimick what a human should feel. What a human should feel or do when someone tries to kill them , defend themselves? retaliate ? Revenge? Seek justice? But ...that only implies on human isn't it? Am I even human ? shouldn't someone as powerful as me could resolve everything peacefully , should I live for myself or for a greater purpose. Meh.. I think it's better to just follow the flow for now.

"Anyway let's pick up the speed shall we, Mach 5 it is "

*FUUUUUUUUUHHHHHHHHHHH💨*

A barrier appears infront of me as what you could imagine, imagine if I'm a jet aircraft flying at supersonic speed breaking through the sound barrier but instead there's a barrier infront of me acting as a shield and resistance.

" Well honestly I am bit worried that my clothes might just get shredded without this barrier but then again it probably doesn't even matter as I can just wish or desire that my clothes are indestructible"

If someone were to hear what I'm talking they would think of how absurd that is ,a single person flying faster than sound without any machine? Indestructible clothing ? yeah bud you're a cookoo, but then again there's no one here , is there ? even if there is they would be plucking their eyes trying to deny such absurdity and in the end I would be the one to cure their blindness.

" I think I got a little power trip right now, I feel like I'm too arrogant, not that it really matters as I have the power to back it up but still I should make some rules so that I won't be killing anyone just because they're annoying or accidentally bump into me "

"Okay the rule is"

" 1st ,no killing innocent "

"2nd ,killing is allowed when I have warned the other person before they try to kill me first , if they attack with the intent to harm but not kill then I would do the same"

"3rd ,if innocent people are rope into this then killing will be the last option "

"4th , the most important one , always prioritize my own life first if I'm exhausted of all options"

"Is that it , I'll just think of new ones later to see if there's anything that I'll miss"

"I just hope that I arrive quic..."

*FUUHHHH*

In a blink of an eye an unidentified flying object appeared so suddenly near me , surprisingly it manage to match up my pace.

"Well maybe it's not that surprising considering this world current technological advancement , honestly they might even surpass mach 10 for a flying object suitable in this world atmosphere"

" I suppose I should talk to them since I don't want to be shot again but it's troublesome, I mean I don't want to kill unnecessarily just because we had a misunderstanding that leads to them wanting to kill me or something "

"But can they even here me talk"

"It would be nice if I could talk to them telepathically "

-"hello"-

The first word that I utter with the intent to talk telepathically goes into his head without any resistance but sure enough even a veteran soldier would think they had gone crazy after hearing a voice inside their head.

"' what just happened "'

"' why do I hear something in my head , am I going crazy?"'

-"yeah, it's me-"

I responded while landing on top of his flying object which might surprise him because without any hesitation he reached for his radio button to report about such situation

"'."'

*Beep*

"'Towers in command I need backup, I repeat I need backup '"

-"."-

-"sighhhh , you just can't shut up can you"-

"' and please tell my wife I love her"'

*Pzzzz*

("' roger affirmative ,but you don't have a..."')

*beep* *beep*

And with that the soldier end his call , even in the face of such monstrosity he could still joke around perhaps maybe it was more of wish.

"'alright you monster what more do you want , you have killed dozens men in the lab built specifically for pathological research, you breached the sea border for flying at insane speeds and now you want to kill me is that it "'

I didn't respond anything trying to process such absurdity that je spew all of the sudden

"."

"' you're going to take my body right? , then go ahead, at least I know I'll die proudly trying to stop you from harming humanity"'

"."

"Wait something's not right , that lab was definitely not a pathogen research facility"

-"and why would I want your body, I'm not a cannibal "-

"' OH MY GOD you're worst than I thought "'

I got fed up as the misunderstanding got even bigger while trying to communicate with this guy

-_-

-"you know what , I wish you could have just told me what I want"-

"'we already received order from the higher ups that a monster disguise as a human escape to the nearest port city for it's next target after killing dozens of men in the research facility, who would have thought you'd also ate a kid "'

-" okay who's spreading this s***"-

'sighhhh , the goverment is still the same where ever world you go'

-"it seems there's been a misunderstanding okay, first..."-

"' shut up you monster, there's no excuse for what you've done "'

*Deep breathing*

' okay deep breath,deep breath , remember the rules, you can't kill people just because they're annoying '

*FUUHHHH*

*Multiple flying object appears*

Without any notice, multiple flying object appeared near us maybe as a reinforcement with each and every one of them in different models , each one of them are unique on its own. Perhaps all of them have their own respective roles in a mission which will saddens me more if they all die trying to stop me. Instead of sadness I think it's more accurate to call it pity. Yes I pity them.

' I didn't even realize how long I'm trying to converse with this guy but all of it seems futile, with how long this guy spitting nonsense the reinforcement have already arrive '

*Pzzz*

("' don't worry about me sargent you can go ahead and neutralize the target, I'll go ahead of you"')

("'no stop , don't act without my orde.."')

The soldier ejects as soon as he can without hesitate, it's as if his only role is to keep me here busy until reinforcement arrive.

*Ejects*

As soon as he did he sighs a relief as to not deal with anything bothersome, maybe he is shirking some of his responsibility but honestly I could understand him in some way. He's just trying to prioritize his own life and there's no fault in that.

"That guy, he's smart for running away but still, surely when you ejected from the jet while flying at such high speed it would be dangerous, imagine he get some broken bones here and there"

"'HAHAHA , thank God I don't have to deal with that thing , my wife, I'll be waiting you home."'

Even while working in such a suicide mission for the government he still has a big ambition which is to make it out alive but sadly reality have a different plan for him. As such his parachute got tangled

"'Why must such thing happened at such times"'

' let's not worry , I can just release the tangled one and deploy an extra emergency parachute '

But still even with an extra planning can't defeat fate , even if you tried to run from it or prepare for its outcome, no amount of effort can change fate. Im the end his second parachute also get tangled.

"'wait , not this one too , fudge "'

Yes , I too love fudge

'I have to quickly untangle it'

And with how quick and calm he undergoes that situation he succeed in untangling the parachute and successfully land on the water but still he couldn't make it without any injury but it's still better than not making it in the first place.

*Splash*

("'urrrggh this guy"')

' why did he eject first, but thankfully he made an opportunity to isolate that monster and avoid friendly fire '

("'OPEN FIRE"').

("'roger that sargent, missile launch initiate"')

*thunderous missile sounds*

*SHHHHUUUUUUUU*

Multiple missile rockets were aimed and launched at me with high speed and with such high technology ,it could even track me down in an attempt to annihilate me.

-"sighhh not again , why are you attacking me ? then again those missiles could never reach me "-

In a split second when I uttered those words all of the missiles malfunction and plummet downwards into the sea. Though it may seem strange it doesn't even feel like a split second, even in decisive battle a split second could determine an outcome of the battle but instead...this is different, it's as if my word and will entangled with the laws of nature itself as if it is quantum entanglement. What I say and think correspond to that as a consequences.

*missile malfunction*

Naturally all the soldier were surprised to find out that their missile didn't even miss but on the contrast malfunctioned.

' what the hell is that , did the missiles just malfunction , wait more importantly is the monster talking telepathically '

-"well you're half right, I'm not a monster so as an act of good gesture I'm warning you guys to just stop and surrender as it's futile"-

"'well you're no human and as a soldier of this planet , we'll never surrender."'

*Pssss*

("' squad , you have my permission to act independent, shoot it with everything you've got, bring it down here without fail, we must not let it reach the city")

("'Roger Sargent "')

("' affirmative "')

*BRRRRRRRRRR*

*THUUUUUUUUU*

*PSSSSHHUUUU*

With that command the entire squad went berserk and shot with everything they got trying to empty their ammo and arsenal. It's as if their fighting a horde of zombies with a machine gun in an apocalypse setting where humanity is almost extinct because of the zombies but in this case they're all fighting a single being, a single being that is way more dangerous then a world full of zombies. As if they're rats getting cornered but ion the second thought they're being cornered wherever they are. Their instinct is telling them to kill no even if they can to harm this being...me. With that , all of their barrages and attacks manage to hit this monster.

*BOOOOM*

But as much as they try to struggle it's futile in the face of such monstrosity. All their attacks doesn't even managed to leave a dust moreover so than harming me.

nothing happened

-"you know it saddens me to kill unnecessarily but I already tried to warn all of you but you guys just won't listen , with how you guys are thinking it's a wonder that the jets you're flying didn't even crash into one another just because of your stupidity"-

And with such words all of their jets malfunction and ended up crashing into each other even when it was performing very well before this.

*Jets malfunction*

*beep* *beep* *beep* *beep* *beep* *beep*

("'sargent the jets are acting up , we're losing control"')

("' there's seems to be a problem sargent "')

("' WAIT STOP KYLE YOU'RE GOING TO CRASH INTO ME!"')

("' I'm not in control of thi.."')

*Boom*

*multiple crashes*

As the Sargent watch all of his squad which supposed to be the elite airforce destroyed with such a simple sentence while there's nothing he can do but simply watch and wait for his doom.

"'my God"'

*Boom*

" As much as I hate people dying we must move on with our lives to strive and become a better person , I hope you all rest well , peacefully"

In the end I tried to grieve or at least feel apologetic towards the dead but at last doing something just because someone else does it without you feeling the needs or emotion to do it doesn't feel right but still it's better than being happy with their death

"Well anyway enough with the grief let's continue our journey"

"It's a hassle if they discover me so maybe I should change my face and lab coat, wait I don't need to do that instead I could just be invisible , if light could just not reflect on me but refract towards my back like a black hole I could be invisible"

"Then again I couldn't see if light does not enter my eyes... okay let me just conjure a glass which let light pass by one way"

"There you go , perfect, I could still see everything"

"Anyway I already wasted a lot of time on obliterated them well let us proceed with mach 10 "

*FUUUUUUUUUHHHHHHHHHHH*💨

––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––

In a different scene we could see a beauty with short pink hair with pink eyes wearing a long white trench coat calling someone , perhaps someone with a lot of authority.

*beep *beep*

"'yes president we've already started the evacuation process with city Mesodonea , it's only until a matter of time before completion"'

("'."')

("'great job executioner"')

("'you may proceed"')

It responded with a distorted voice that contain that much authority and command. Who could this be ?
