Chapter 7: At last

“Hahhhh,” Maha sigh as he was moved to tears when he looked towards the planet in front of him, it is his home planet...Mother Earth.

He is now invincible for eternity, looking back at the time when he still play games with his friends, he shed a tear. He then suddenly felt extremely sad, it is probably millions of years away from the year 2018 now.

There are no relative left in this world for him, he then vividly recall the face of his mother when she cooked spaghetti that day…

When he is still grieving, countless rays of light flashes and appears before Maha, they formed into entities that have either holy auras or evil auras.

One of the entity of light stepped forward and said “If I may ask, I inquire who you might be traveler?” The entity asked in a formal tone.

“Ah, I’m just no one, oh but uh are you people gods that govern this planet?” Maha is one hundred percent sure that they are because he could see odd chains that comes from each entity, it all connect to Earth.

“Why yes we are, but if I may ask again what is your purpose here?” The entity that asked this time is one with a evil dark aura.

“Ah don't worry about me, I'm just going to wander the world and stuff. So for the moment, I actually don't know what I'm going to actually do.” With that, Maha did not wait for anymore questions but directly fly towards earth leisurely. None of the entity stop him from proceeding.

“Old Je, what do you suppose THAT is?” An evil entity asked another entity that have a blinding pure aura that obviously stands out more than the others.

“I'm not sure either, but what I do know is that we should never, ever provoke that being...ever.”

“I agreed...that thing can probably destroy this entire galaxy with a fart, not to mention us.” Saying this the evil aura entity actually shake his body due to fear.

“Yes...everyone! I wish to announce this to everyone here, do not interfere with anything that being will do to Earth, if not that entity will be punish according to the will of heaven. Everyone got that?” The blinding pure aura named Old Je also fear Maha, thus he asked for everyone presents to becomes observers.

“Yea that's ok, I felt that monster’s power too, I known my own limit.” Agreed an evil entity.

“I agreed with what Asura said, that thing is a monster, I will stay out of anything that it will do.” Said another powerful evil entity.

“Oh? Even the great Kali said so? But hey I don't blame you I feel it too…first time in my life that I actually felt scared.”

“Hahaha! The Monkey finally admit that he is inferior? This must be a celebration day in heaven. Hahahaha!”

“Shut it Bacchus, if even Hades is keeping quiet you shouldn't speak in my presence.”

“Oh please Karma, you just made you don't get to enjoy life like me.” Just when these two gods were about to duke it out with each other, an overbearingly large aura of darkness stepped forward.

“Ehem, quiet down everyone. I would like to say that, I represent all entities of darkness to stay out of the machinations of that being for as long as he stays on Earth.”

“Thank you Satan, and I Jesus Christ, represent all entities of light, to also stays away from the machinations of that being.”

After an agreement between the two strongest entity, all the gods of earth went back to their own domain, but a few stick around to observe the ‘being’ of immense power.

Maha who is leisurely flying, decided to go to Japan first, why? It is because it have been his dream to eat the amazing food there, also to see things that are described in anime, the maid cafe, the eroge games, and ridiculous ways real girls try to be cute.

Using the energy he created Huala, Maha did a quick scan of the entire Earth. After a few minutes, the Earth’s entirety is displayed in Maha’s head like a 3D map. He now know every locations of earth and their exact location, he then locked on to Japan’s main city...Tokyo. He teleported into an empty area in a random slum that he found in Tokyo City.

Taking in the atoms in his surrounding, Maha shape them into a ragged wrap that he used to see extremely poor people back in his day wear. He is not very sure if he can fit in, but knowing human society, no matter what time period it is, as long as you wear rags...you will fit in just fine.

After donning the rags over himself, Maha walked out of the empty area to find the other hobos that are hanging around to get informations. Why did he decided that being a hobo is the best way to go? A new experience and a new perspective of the world is the answer.

Maha did not have to walk far before he saw three hobos who wore thick sweaters, ragged beanies, and fingerless gloves around a fire looking for warmth.

‘Haaahhh, even so far into the future, there are still poor sobs like these fellow hanging around.’ Maha shakes his head in disappointment at the human’s cruel nature, those who earn their place in society gets to stay, while those who are like these guys are cast out.

“Ehem, gentlemen I would like to take a few moments of your time and ask you a few questions.” Maha put both his hands behind his back, stand straight, and asked using a polite tone.

“@$&$@&&Wink [https://forum.royalroadl.com/images/smilies/wink.png]@$&$@&$@&?” The guy on the left who wore a green jacket spoke gibberish and then he seemed confused.

“@&&$@&&@$&!” The guy in the middle also speak gibberish but for some odd reasons, he is excited.

“$@&@$&&@$...um...h-hello, I am a bl e to sa peak en glish.” The guy on the right whose looks definitely pass for an old veteran of war was able to engrish out a few word.

‘Ah, language barrier, alright let's see, aha.’ Maha ignored the three hobo for a minutes and looked around to find the newspaper. After reading it a few times, Maha got the gist of how to speak Japanese.

“Ahem, do you understand me now?” Maha is now speaking fluent Japanese with a small accent, but to the Japanese people he is very fluent.

“Ah!? How the hell, yo Kishin, did that kid just...learned Japanese from a newspaper?” The guy to the left asked the guy on the right.

“Apparently, he did yea...hey kid if you are such a genius, why are you homeless? You should be in a good humble home with that kind of mind.” The guy on the right was full of praises, there is also a sad look in his eyes as he looked at Maha.

“Peh, maybe he's one of them rich kids who dressed up as hobos to make fun of us.” The guy in the middle is apparently the party pooper of the bunch, he sneered and mock with a harsh tone. “Get away from me kid, I hate rich people…”

“You, shut...up...before I do it for you.” Maha stared straight as the man in the middle, he let out each word with a tint of feral aura imbued into them.

The middle gentleman fell on his butt and starts to shake ferociously, like he just saw the scariest thing in his entire life.

“Oy kid, what did you do to Yuuki?” The one on the right, Kenshin, did not really seemed to care about the guy in the middle as he halfheartedly asked.

“Nothing, I just speaks to him like a normal civilized human, anyway would one of you gentlemen tell me what year is it now?” Maha for some odd reasons felt a thrill, would it really be millions of years into the future? However when he did the scan using Huala, there did not seemed to be a whole lot of change.

“Ah? Why would you ne-...ah whatever, it's the year 2218, kid what's it to ya?” The man of the left just went back to warming himself without caring too much about Maha now, he guessed that Maha was crazy. He guessed that it is the reason why he got left in the slum by his parents.

‘Hmm? Why is it that only 200 years have passed? When I scanned the Earth it really did looked like the original Earth too, but it’s 200 years into the future…something's not adding up.’

“Say what happened from the year 2018 to 2218?” Maha, was curious, what happened to all the promised flying cars or robotics?

“Ah? Kid did you knocked your head on something? Or have you been living und-...oh nvm mind that...anyway World War 3 happened, it caused a fall out that turned Earth into a wasteland. Yea that happened, like it took the human race 200 years to get back to where we were originally, and what about the stupid war? It went on hold when they see that Earth is dying, and guess what? They are fighting the war till now! 200 years later…” The guy on the right, Kishin, seemed very emotional about this topic...well Maha can guess why, cause he looked very much like a retired soldier.

“Hoh?...” Maha put his hand over his chin and starts to rub it like there is something there.

‘Interesting, only 200 years have passed, but how? Mmm only way for time to move on the outside world again is if there is a hole in the spa-...oh…’

The realization dawned upon him like a she-man in a rated R film, well maybe not that dramatic but he now knew that, each of the time that he opened the space 100 years passed in the original world.

‘Interesting, very interesting indeed. Hmm, maybe I'll help these poor sobs out of their predicament for the info in exchange.’

Maha stop his chin rubbing and silence, he then looked up to the three man who have ignored him a while back.

“Gentlemen,”

“Woah! Kid you been standing there for like 40 minutes, don't just suddenly speak up will ya?” The guy on the left said as he looked annoyed. “If you're done with your crazy talk go away, I want to sleep.”

“Shut the f*ck up...don’t act like you're something when you ain't sh*t, talk to me like that when you have the power to back it up.” The tone that Maha said that line was that of total nonchalant, but to the hobo on the left he is terrified out of his mind.

The hobo saw that there are legions upon legions of horrifying creatures that roared out their feral cry, they are all stationed behind the kid like he was the devil himself.

“Well then, Kishin my good man, do you have a wish or dream that you hoped that it will be fulfilled? Just speak your mind, I'll listen to you in exchange for the informations.” Maha have a pretty good impression of the guy, so he thought...why not, lets help him out if he have a wish or dream.

“Hahahah, kid I don't know what you did to those two, but keep it away from folks who don't deserve to have a face like those two,” The guy on the right, Kishin point at the two hobo that have faces frozen in complete fear, like they were two scared carved sculpture. “Anyway, I don't really have a dream anymore you see, she died a while back during one of the dangerous missions.” His face was long and dark when he said that.

“Ah, so you wish for your love to be back with you?” Maha have seen these type of things so many times in, well just about anything…he felt that it's useless to care so much for one thing, he think that if you have strength, who dare to rob you of your things? Not even death no?

“”Haha ha...haaahhh, no kid, I don't want her back because I'm scared that...something very BAD is going to happen.” The man looked at Maha who is confused by the answer, and said “what about you kid? You're young so you have limitless potential, what is YOUR dream?”

This question really stuck to Maha as he stop and think again.

‘Hmm, that is indeed true, what was my dream? Gain infinite power? Already done. Have children? Done too. Hmm, what was it that I dream about day and night?’

Without realizing how much time have passed, Maha who have been standing in one place for the last 4 hours.

“YES!!! I finally found my answer, HAHAHAHA!!!!” Maha was exhilarated, he have finally recalled the dream which he think of day and night for the last 3 years of his life.

“WHAT!? What!? Oh huh? Kid what are you doing screaming at...3 in the morning like that?” Kishin sleepily sit up and asked while looking at the Maha, whose face looked like he just won the lottery.

“Hahaha, oh Kishin, you have done me a great task, for that I will let you in on my dream. Hahahahhahahahahah!!! We go my good man!!!”

“Wait what are you-...” Before Kishin could finish his what he is saying, Maha and himself disappeared from the slum with two fear stricken hobo.
