03.Tyrant

Livius wanted to watch a "movie" called "Emperor of Chrome" using ZAX which may seems weird to him yet it felt some familiarity with it.

He pulled a small chip from the 3 inches length and 1.5 inches width box. The chip was inserted into the gear on its left side.

LOADING……

PLEASE WAIT………

After a few minutes, scenery changed from a boring bedroom into an unknown world. The place was so beautiful as the serenity came into existence.

Flora and fauna existed in harmony as rabbits were hopping around the field feeding on the plants. Giraffes were moving in herd as they went to the nearby lake, attempting to consume it.

However, a burning star came down in a such a way which caused a devastating blow onto the lifeforms. The thick smoke spread to all direction causing suffocation to the inhabitants.

A figure stood proudly in the center of the crater with his eyes looking down at the chaos caused by the fallen star. His sinister smile would caused anyone to feel fear and others might mistook him for the devil himself.

His eyes were completely in darkness as if the body was being possessed by the devil. His black veins spread across his body.

"KILL! KILL!"

"Devour them all, my pets!"

A horde of an unknown species came out from his shadows as they began devouring flora and fauna within their reach.

"HAHAHAHA!"

"Slay them all."

"Feast upon them all, my babies!"

The gory scene where blood splashed as the flesh being torn by the beasts razor teeth might caused some people to vomit upon laying their sight on it.

Livius was currently terrified upon watching the scene but his sight could not take off from the "human" leader of the horde.

However, something unexpected happened.

"I've been waiting for you…Zero."

The figure shifted his gaze onto Livius alongside with his devilish smile.

"Who…are…you?"

"Me? Let's just say we're closer than you could even imagine."

If you spot this tale on Amazon, know that it has been stolen. Report the violation.

"What do you mean by that?"

"You'll find out soon enough."

As soon as the figure finished his speaking, the space turn into total darkness dragging Livius into the abyss.

Planet Earth had been advanced in its sectors since the year 2040 AD. Governments from around the globe had agreed on the used of Esmen energy due to the lack of fossil fuel.

Oil been catogerised as the relic of the past. This had caused an industrial revolution which raw materials such as metals, fineries and woods had became an essential things.

Humanity had began relying on machines until the SAD incident where the paranormals were being born. A large gas exploded in one of the hidden generator under the sea.

Paranormals were considered humans except that they had superpowers which depend on each individuals.

Superhero International League (SIL), an independent organisation was established in hope of controlling these mutants. They do not ally themselves to any countries.

Moreover, many of the patriot paranormals viewed this single entity as the supreme power. He existed two decades prior to the SAD incident.

When Earth was under threat of the enemies both internal and external, this entity face them both with the might that many considered to be divinity.

People started worshipping this idol and there was even a cult dedication on worshipping him as god.

I'M NOT A GOD.

These famous phrase had been using by many superheroes as their favourite catch phrase.

In the darkness of the night, a figure wearing black armor with a hooded trench was being seen. He struck his enemies with his blood scthye that was twice his size.

Many called him, Death while others address him as Devil but many agreed to call him Zero which indicating he was the first paranormal that ever existed.

The dark figure was wandering around the void looking at the youth who was walking to school all alone while others were chatting happily with their friends through a secret portal.

"Zero. Zero. Always the lonely type one."

Suddenly, he vomitted thick black blood from his mouth. His left hand unconsciously grabbed his chest as he groaned in pain.

"Arrgh!"

"Your power is indeed powerful, Zero."

"Even after millenias, he still possessed the power to rival the Emperor himself."

The dark figure watched the flows of time in the outer space as conflicts were arousing each seconds. His sinister smile was still visible even though the blood still dripping from the edge of his lips.

"Your highness, you speaks highly of the Children of Adam yet they no different than us."

"What do you see in them?"

His smile turn into a frown as he kicked the air. Instead of the sound of the wind, a thunderous cracking sound echoed.

The empty air now had a large crack on it.

3 millenias ago, the dark figure confronted a powerful entity known as the "Emperor", The Dark Hand which had been existed before the creation of humanity.

Other innocent lives who got caught in the cross-fire, they were being erased from the world. Planets after planets began turn into dust as the two figures clashed.

He suffered a heavy injury as the result of the battle. The Emperor gave a huge scar on his chest which result in a powerful curse being inflicted onto his very body thus damaging his very physique.

"You're weaker than I thought, Julies."

"Here's a little advise, don't pretend to be strong."

"YOU!"

The dark figure watched the fleeing Emperor who slowly vanishing from the scene.

"Are you trying to run?!"

The Emperor stopped for moment murmured a single sentence which caused the figure to developed an extreme grudge on the former.

"I don't like wasting time with weakling."

The dark figure was left lying helplessly as he could not even move a muscle as a result of the curse.

Fortunately, the planet was desolated otherwise he will be at the mercy of the predators on the planet.
