He just kept quiet and did not answer my question. I grabbed his clothes and look at his eyes. Even he was an artificial intelligence robot created by my brother, his blue eyes looked alive and had a soul within.
"Hey you piece of metallic plate, answer my question? Answer me!"
"I'm sorry, Mr. Michael. I was ordered to make you maintain your calmness. Please bear with it"
"What the heck are you trying to say, huh? Are you trying to tell me that my brother no longer exists in this fucking era?"
As I said that, he grab my hands and he said with pure heart, "Yes, you're brother is dead since a billion years ago"
I wanted to try to shed tears but I can't. I punched the wall with my right arm multiple times and it made a large hole within it.
"Mr. Michael, please calm down. It will make worst if you do that. Your body is no longer yours"
"What? Are you fucking kidding me? My body is my own body. No one is allowed to make it his or hers"
"Sir, your anger will make the whole place in danger. Please calm down"
"Don't make me laugh. I got to go. All those information are lies. My brother is still alive and he promised that he is the one who will wake me up. Oh yeah, I get it. It's a prank haha. I think my brother is still here and watching me.
Hey, scumbag! Show yourself, stop bullshitting me. Get out now you stupid brother"
As I tried to get out from the room, Lom injected me a tranquilizer.
"Sh….it, again"
"You make me no choice sir. You should sleep again. It's for the best and safety of the whole world"
"You bastard.....," and then I collapse on the ground
When I was unconscious, my body was engulfed by darkness and returned to the same room. The light started to get closer to me. This time, I tried to run away from it but I ended up falling from an unknown place. It was too dark and I could not see anything.
As the light kept coming, I ran away again. However, I was stumbling over my own feet. The light was coming near me.
"Please, don't hurt me. Please, I'm begging you please don't come near me. I'm going to melt if you try to get inside my body"
"Chris, I'm no enemy nor a monster. Thy name is my name, thy body is my own body, I'm you and you're me. We're one and only kind"
"W-W-What do you mean?"
"Thou shalt see what I mean. As the world's savior come to the new world"
"Huh?"
"Thou shalt be ready for the upcoming event. Where the originals were coming back and take the world what is yours. The evil menace must destroy and shall vanish once again. Originals must take care and must stay alive. The artificials shall not be the one who ruled the world. Thou shall create and back the balance"

"Ba...lance? What do you mean by that? Who are you anyway? You're telling me some shitty stuff that I can't understand"
"You're the hero of thy past hence thou shalt be the hero of the present. We're the original created by the Almighty. He's the Alpha, we're the Omega. We're the one who shall judge the mere ones"
"What do you mean beginning and the end?"
"As you wake in that world, I will meet you, to speak there unto thee," and the light vanished
I woke up from the bed and still wearing my freaking clothes. I got up and searched for new ones. Luckily, I found a white shirt, black pants and two pairs of slippers inside the closet.
After that, I went outside to take a tour of the facility. There were no windows in every sector I've passed by.
I tried to search for plants but unluckily, there was nothing but artificial plants.
When I saw a sign board of cafeteria, my stomach started to sound.
"Oh, I'm hungry now. Well, I need to eat though. I hope there are coffees and sandwiches or even a vending machine too"
As I opened, I was shocked to what I saw. I thought it was just kind of 3D edition of a movie however, it is real. The living creatures of different kinds of animals were living peacefully like they are living in their own environment. Lions, tigers, birds, zebras and other kinds of animals were living together but they didn't try to kill each other. Additionally, there were huge and small trees, different kinds of flowers also the rare ones and small ponds.
"I-I thought all living things including the animals and plants were destroyed and vanished from the world. How could this be possible?"
"It is you who saved them, Mr. Michael"
"What? ....Lom, you're lying, right? How could I possibly do that kind of trick? I slept for over a billion of years"
"It is your rare power given by the Almighty"
"Huh? W-What do you mean by that? Who is the Almighty?"
"Sir, do you really want to know the whole truth behind your delayed awakening?"
I felt kind of confused with a mix of hesitation, however, if this was the answer that I'm asking for. Well then, I'll accept the offer without any kind of disarray.
"I accept. I want to know the reason of this freaking event happening in my life"
"Please follow me to the studio room"
I followed him and entered the room. He asked me to sit down wherever I felt comfortable.
The video started to play and I was shocked by what I saw.
"Hello baby brother, how are you today?"
"...Big Brother!"
"Woah! Woah! Woah! I know you're going to say it loud haha"
He reacted then does this mean he was talking with me
"Haha, I know you're thinking that I'm reacting and talking to you via skype but sadly to say, it was just a recorded video. I know you're angry at me for some reason and I made it more complicated. Hahaha"

"You fucking bastard. You know all along huh. Then why did you do that?"
"Well, you're asking me why I didn't wake you up in the promising year. The main reason is this," he showed to me a piece of big crystal stone
"What is that thing?"
"This is a meteor stone that came from space and strikes down the house I'm living in and burned it into ashes. Luckily, even though all of my important things turned to ash, I'm still alive haha"
"You bastard. You should die too"
"You're so mean baby brother"
Is this really a recorded video? I'm getting pissed off already. It's like he is really talking to me
"Well back to our topic, this is a meteor. I named it a Hympe"
"Hympe? Wait I think I've read it in the articles"
"This crystal has an enormous aura that every time I got a hold of it I started to pee"
....Eh?
"Well yeah, one of its effects to the holder is making him pee, puke, feel dizzy and to get a stomach ache. Haha and I ended up for a hypothesis that this crystal is good for the dieters haha"
"Die...ters?"
"Hahahaha...Dieters means the persons who want to take a diet haha"
"Are you fucking kidding me, you stupid bastard? Take it seriously, will ya?!"
"Aye, aye captain...I mean General! Ho-ho, don't be a mad baby brother. You're already fifty years old, Oh wait, it's already 10 years thus this mean you're sixty years old haha"
"Oh God, please make him more mature. I return what you've said, act your age"
"Haha, come on"
I'm getting a suspicion that this video is really not a normal one via message. This is a fucking vexing video message. I'm like talking to my brother via skype just like the old days
"But well, I'm getting serious now. Listen carefully, Chris"
"Yes"
"Do you remember the seven injections I've done to you before you went to your eternal sleep?"
"Indeed, it's still clear inside my mind"
"Those are the seven rays of liquids of this crystal"
"...W-What?"
"I know that the Federation will totally win this worthless war. I lost everything including my own family," he started to shed tears
...Brother...
"I'm telling you the truth, Mika and my wife were already dead two years ago before the ICEMAN Project"
...M-M-ika...So you mean brother that you hid it from me in order....
"I know you're going to take revenge for what they've done with them. But in order to save you, I deceived you. I gave you a false information that they are safe. I want you to live because you're my only family left"
"You fucking traitor! Why should I have to live if you're going to die? You should let me die together with you all! Big Brother!"
"Chris, please bear with it. I know it's hard to take it but it's for the best. I created some AI in order not to merely observe and guard you, but to serve and protect the original being"
"Original? I heard it from that light. What do you mean the original being?"
"The Almighty created the light and darkness. He created the heaven and sea. He created the land and vegetation. He created the stars, the sun, and the moon. He created the living animals on land and water. And then he created us the humans. But now, it has been changed. We, the humans created our own end. We created the things that destroyed the earth.
We're intelligent and wise but we ended up killing each other. Those animals used the nukes to destroy us but ended up as a disaster for them. Right now, the heaven is starting to descend on the earth. I need to make it fast before it's too late. I need to do something that is being forcefully ordered by that animals"
"The Federation?"
"Chris, as you can see. I'm going to put this crystal to the core of the earth"
"What?"
"But in order to make things right and equal. I need a secondary heart that is compatible with the Hympe's power. To return the earth to its original view and atmosphere. In order to make things adjusted"
"Do you mean...?"
"Yes indeed, the seven rays I've injected to you. Your body is no longer yours brother. You're now the Alpha and ..,"
"Omega"
"The world keeps revolving because you're still around. Your emotions dictate the presence of the world. In other words, you're the beginning and the end of the new world. The essence of your existence means all these creatures depends on you"
"W-What the heck? So that light was eventually telling the truth"
"Chris, there is another thing I want to tell you too"
"What is it?"
"From the ascension of the new era, there are new creatures that will rise up from the new world. There is new evil will try to destroy it. I want you to protect the world that is beloved by the Almighty"
"H-How should I do that? I-I don't know where I am"
"T-4004, known as Lom will be going to tell you the whole details and show you that tool. I don't have enough much time to talk with you"
"Brother"
"Chris," he touched the video screen raising his right hand
"Brother," I too touched the screen while raising my right hand
"Live long, don't you dare to give up"
"Yes"
"Always believe and be optimistic"
"Yes," I started to shed more tears
"Even I die on this day, I'll always beside you and watching you from the other side"
"Y--Yes..," I started to cry
"No matter where you go, always remember you're not alone. I love you baby brother. Farewell"
And the video stops, only the black screen showed up
I kneeled down and started to cry shouting the name of my brother.
...B-Big brother! I promised I’ll protect the world you created for all of us. I'll live! I’ll live!

RakhtaBhushan (Blood Ornament)
[This book has been contracted elsewhere, which is why I am not updating any more. Please contact me if you want to continue reading the story.] God King Arya defeats Agni Asura Yaman. Two hundred years later, Asura Yaman reincarnates as golden prince, Suryadev, of RakhtaPrastha. Once he comes of age, a darkness begins to lurk in his dreams. Flashbacks from his past life erode his mind, his fate "unforeseen by the gods." As he seeks to heal, his path entwines with Vidyut, his long time rival. Hardened by the cruelties of life, Vidyut embraces the dark art of Tantra, for which he is both rejected and coveted by the people of the five kingdoms. Meanwhile, the kingdom of RakhtaPrastha is facing political turmoil and rival kingdoms, while the animosity between God King Arya and Yaman/Surya's supporter, Goddess Dimuka, is spilling into the human world. Princes, Spells, Gods, Spirits, Heaven, Mythical creatures, Wars, and Reincarnation, and so much more. It is based on Indian mythology, specifically Hindu mythology. But it is an original fantasy and focus is character arcs. It has BL/Gay content. Most Surya-Vidyut interactions are in the chapters marked Surya or Vidyut. The romance in this story is slowburn. **Daily Chapter Release** Cover Art Disclaimer: The cover art is using an image from Pinterest. The art has been kindly created by Ben Arisson.

Fateless: The Silver Lining
It has been ten years of peace for the Union since the end of the great war with the eastern barbarian tribes, yet in the cold north of the Union's land, a new threat is looming. This time, an ambitious Lord is seeking to restore the yore pride of his kin, forcing the weakened Union into yet another unwanted war, as he ramps up the ranks of his army with thieves, murderers and mercenaries.* * *The temperature inside the forge was nearly twice as high as the one outside. A black-haired girl hammered a steel ingot into the shape of a blade. The heat of the steam was draining her stamina away, but her focus remained sharp as her sweat streamed down her face. Hit after hit, for hours, the sound of the hammering steel followed the rhythm of her breathing. Exhausted, she placed the blade into the water and wiped the sweat off her face using a drenched rag. Why are they screaming? Vatra dipped the rag back in the water, twisted it, and approached the window. Her mouth opened as her world shattered again into the living nightmare she had wilfully tried to forget. She bit her lips; it wasn’t a dream. The pulse of her heart rose. A cold sweat prickled her back. A mother was running, and a child was screaming. A torrent of smoke was emerging from the roof of her neighbour. Vatra’s eyes blinked. The mother lay on the ground, a spear through her back. A torch circled in the air and landed on the roof of her workshop. In the distance, a man wearing a banner well known to the world… Fateless is a philosophical medieval dark low fantasy centered on war, militaristic campaigns and geopolitical conflicts between multiple empires. This story follows the fate of Vatra, a former slave from the eastern Nar Empire who was raised in a culture far away from her own, forced into warfare against her will, and the fate of Lanaya, an ambitious half-angel exiled from her home whose existence is seen as heresy. As they wished for peace, both chose a path opposed to one another until their fate crossed. In this story where war dictates the law, love strikes them as a poisoned balm to which they grasp for with all their might, as it is in the darkest of times that the smallest flames may burn the brightest. * * * Tome 1 already completed and available on Amazon: https://www.amazon.ca/Fateless-Silver-Hugo-Emmanuel-Simard-Wallot/dp/B09LGSH1KK Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/Hugo-Emmanuel-Simard-Wallot-100547579135891/ I will publish 1 chapter per week (sometimes 2 if the chapters are too short for my liking).

Magikind [Original]
The third millennia, a time of change and evolution. An era, where people, through countless generations, have evolved strange powers and abilities. Through several centuries of selective breeding, these beings, known as mages, have become part of the very foundations of society. However, some refused to change or adapt. They believed in purity and refused to interbreed with magikind. Known as the manush, they were a rarity among society. Now, in the fifth millennia, the manush are thought extinct. With magikind ruling the world, a three-way war grips society. In these uncertain times, a manush called Gin, will herald a new era for all Magikind. A story of how man could realistically evolve while still pushing boundaries. Disclaimer: Chapters will be edited once the first volume is done. Bear the beginning for the time being, and hopefully you can see my writing improving over time (I've learnt a lot on how to write because of this (though I'm still not perfect :P)) Proud Member of Writers to the End, WriTE The link to the pledged fictions PS. If you find the 'notes' too boring or too info-dumpy, feel free to skip them and just read the main chapters. They're there for the reader to understand Gin's world (written in the perspective of Gin). But later on, we can see some interactions between the main characters and the occasional references to his past in the notes, so it has its purpose.
