76 - Normal Day

A day later,

Zion woke up from his slumber, feeling refreshed by the good long sleep. He pulled away his thick blanket and turned off the air conditioner. He had his room at low temperature while sleeping under a thick blanket.

"The cozy sleep of heated blanket against the cold winds. Ha, what a sleep it was."

"You woke up."

Zion appreciation for his momentary peace was cut by present voice.

Zion's mind raced as to figured our what was happening. He then quickly turned the AC back on and pulled the blanket over, he quickly returned to sleep, trying to escape his reality. He shut his eyes shut, not wanting to dealing with his life anymore.

'God, help me.'

"It not gentlemanly to let a woman wait," The pleasant voice spoke again.

Zion grumbled at the voice, pulling at the blanket tighter. He didn't was to deal with this, especially this early morning. But the voice on his head told him that his day was already ruined.

He could only continue.

*Sigh*

Zion sighed in frustration while he got back up and out of bed. He walked straight to the kitchen counter to turned on the coffee maker. The sound of tricking coffee echoed in the room as he turned to the pleasant voice.

A women, wearing an oversize hoodie made of fine silk and a baggy pants sat on his couch. She sat their like a fine sculpture that would make any artist fall on their knees. Yet, Zion could only frown.

Unlike normal mortals, he was not swayed by godly beauty. His constitution allowed for no such things. He was a solid rock among the tidal waves of influence.

Or he thought so.

"What do you want, Amaterasu?" Zion sipped the freshly brewed coffee.

Amaterasu smiled like the morning sun at his words, her face half covered by the hoodie. She had stayed behind after the meeting to further establish the covenant between Zion and the Pantheons. They both would not interfere in each others affair, and would help each other if needed.

Zion made it clear he wanted to do nothing with them, and as long as they kept out of his way, he would let them be.

But what intrigued Amaterasu something else. He cared not for them, nor did he fear them. It was given by the power he held. His perfect form held powers similar to their strongest, yet they felt no divinity from him but Faith.

It was as if his power came from believing in something else.

It was such a bazaar concept that others didn't even want to address it.

Zion in his human was still radiating a glow of faith, even if he did not want to. Maybe he doesn't even know it.{He doesn't}. The glow was not strong but nevertheless it was still there. Amaterasu wanted to find what that was, who was giving this power to him.

"Nion, do you believe in someone? A God maybe?" She inquired.

Zion raised a brow as he sipped the coffee. "Why?"

"Just curious," She replied.

"I do," Zion spoke in a tone that implied he would not be answering anything more.

"..."

Amaterasu could only keep silent. Seem like he had caught on to her. {He didn't}.

Zion placed the cup on back down and looked at Amaterasu. His brain was a being hardwired. He could see Amaterasu's soft lips and perfectly carved chin. From all he could see, he was sure that she would be an unmatched beauty.

Even her voice was like a siren's singing.

His brain was trying to fight his body. He was a male without a female contact of years on end. He was also a kid from a town, his interactions with opposite sex were very conserved. So, having a beautiful lady in his room alone was making his imagination run a bit wild, even though he kept fighting each and every thought that popped up.

He was getting a headache.

"Zai," Zion called.

["Hmm"] Zai's voice came from the coffee machine.

"Is it ready?" Zion asked.

["What is ready?"]

"The Sunstone," Zion asked.

["Yeah, they are ready"]

"Okay," Zion replied and Zai left the machine.

Zion turned to Amaterasu and gave a look that said, 'Sit still.' Before he walked into the wash room. He did his morning routine and freshened up, He came out wearing fresh new cloths. A big white t-shirt that hid his toned muscles and blue jeans that went well with the fashion.

"Where are you going?" Amaterasu asked as she got up, her lips curling into a curious smile.

"Work," Zion answered as he walked out the door.

"I am coming with you," Amaterasu spoke in an energetic voice as she rushed to catch him.

Zion gave her a side gaze but didn't stop her. With Amaterasu caught up with him, Zion took a tablet that was stuck on the wall. This was something that allowed him to view all the projects that was go on, there was one placed outside all the important rooms.

Zion read the reports as he walked with Amaterasu in tow.

"They criminals have been capture in Gotham, what's left is to establish ourselves," Zion muttered as he read the report on Gotham.

The sentinels have cleaned the place off rats and dirtbags.

"We still need to renew the infrastructure, especially the rotten curse sealed underground," Zion sighed in frustration. "Couldn't we have just blown it up sky high and rebuild it? We could have done that in a day.

["Citizens would be annoyed"] Zai answered,

"Who cares? I am their king, I have the right to," Zion replied in an annoyed voice.

["We can't just atomize someone home and replace with another. We need favorability points."]

"Whatever, I will just clean it up in my next visit," Zion murmured. "Are the instruction on alterations of consensus been sent?"

["Yeah, added new laws to make it better."]

"What about North Korea?"

["Doing well."]

"Is communism bad?" Zion asked.

["Depend on the implication."]

"Are the letters read?"

["Yes"]

"Atlantis."

["Have no idea."]

"What you mean?"

["Arthur is still roaming around, drunken"]

"Urg," Zion groaned. "Find him."

["Done"]

"Star Heart."

["You need to go by yourself."]

"Armory."

["Need to expand mining procedure. It will be good to terra form other planets."]

"Begin those, and find the coordinates of the other places."

["Done"]

"The Police Box"

["Its a delicate process"]

"Duration?"

["Year or two."]

"What about the Martian settlements?"

["Stable Bioms have been established. The Settlements are underway"]

"The Martians."

["They are recovering fine."]

"Are the heads still thinking they could take us out?"

["*sigh* They are"]

"Idiots," Zion couldn't feel more disappointed. "How is the mapping going on?"

["Progressing smoothly"]

Zion continued to check on the list of things that he had been doing and planning. Making sure that everything was going as planned. He also advice on improvement and redirected some of the plans in a different direction.

In the ten minute walk, Amaterasu didn't disturb him. She as a leading goddess knew how much work had to be done to keep people in reign. It was one of the hardest things to do. Zion completed more than hundred procedures and plan, leaving paperwork to Zai, who could do it in a second.

They were working to improve the whole planet and welcome a new age. He would need the people to be ready, to fight and defend for themselves. If ever needed. He didn't need some incompetent citizens.

Zion arrived back at the main office.

The office was colorful compared to crystal city. He had left it all white, since he didn't want people to think that this is Frankenstein's laboratory with the whole black decor. The whole palace would look like a nightmare incarnate in black.

The office was colored deep blue with wavy pattern extending though the floor. The wall too shifted with many hyper realistic wallpapers to ward the fact of closed space. As for the others, all thing were one you would find in a ceo's office.

Zion walked straight to the closet and pulled the long coat out of it. Even though the long coat looked weird above his casual dress, he was not going to leave without his armour. He got some work to do.

"Zai," Zion called.

The wall opened and displayed a crystal that was colored metallic blue compared to its usual white. Zion had already finished analyzing the sunstone and devised a method to alter its components and structures, suiting his taste.

Zion grabbed the crystal and pocketed it.

He turned to leave but he nearly collided with Amaterasu. He backed away immediately, she even smell nice like the spring breeze.

"Amaterasu, I am going out." Zion said as he began to glitch. "You do you."

With those worlds, he vanished from the place appearing in the void of space. He could see the peck of light in the distant, even the blazing inferno in the distant. He turned to the grey celestial object and threw the crystal towards it surface at remarkable speed.

The Crystal flew at full speed before it dug itself into Moon's surface. The crystal began its work as it dug in and began to multiply. Crating a monolith of intricate structure.

Zion watched it all with calm eyes, but he asked a question. "Do you think we have a Harem tag?"

["Why you ask?"]

"We have been having too many woman trouble," Zion asked.

["I don't think so. For all that gone down, we haven't even met an implicit romantic interest."]

"Really? I thought we have met plenty enough," Zion pondered.

["I don't think so. All the women you meet are after your head."]

Zion scratched his head, "sigh, no romance for me."

{Do not worry child. Your future is in my control. o( ̄▽ ̄)d}

The crystal quickly did its work as it constructed the base for a future project. This base had most of his advance tech. It would be an impenetrable fortress. It could even tank a supernova.

"So, you were here," The pleasant voice echoed in the space.

Zion turned to Amaterasu who appeared next to him. She watched the new base with curiosity but she quickly lost it. She then turned to Zion.

"Are you not going to show your guest around?" She asked in a very convincing voice.

Zion wiped his face in frustration. He could say not to that smile. "Let't go."
