《Feed the EGO》ch 12- chain 2

Mirik's POV-
Where am I? I was supposed to be at my apartment. All I could see in my vision was a blur. My head was splitting from the pain. I grabbed something which was beside me and crushed it in pain. Slowly my vision started coming back to me. I looked at the thing in my hand and it was a flower pot. The crazy thing was that I recognized this flower pot. It was an old heirloom we had in our home back in my hometown. But I broke this when I was small and my father had scolded me for three days straight. How is this here?
Some time passed and I could finally see the room I was in. It was the room in our family house. But it looked more ancient. All the furniture looked more prestige, and the windows gave a nostalgic feeling. The air also felt different, it was fresh. I was in the middle of examining the room when I heard the door behind me opening.
An old but muscular man came in and sat on the floor in Indian style. He looked at me and signaled me to sit too. I followed his orders. It felt like I couldn't disobey him.
"So you are the 23rd. Hmmm...not bad I guess," he said while rubbing his chin.
"Who are you?" I asked him politely. He stared at me like he was offended by the question.
"I am your predecessor kid. To be precise the first one. You should know my name, Adi Diman." he looked at me expectantly but I really had no idea. I shook my head. He looked frustrated but didn't pursue the matter.
"Let's leave it at that and talk about you. You are now the owner of the chain of remembrance. That means that the last head has died. Raja...He was a good man." he said. I could feel sorrow in his voice.

"You can even activate the chain on your own. You are a good kid."
"What is happening? Where even am I?" I asked curiously.
"I told you that you have activated the chain of remembrance. You are inside the chain. This chain was created by me and with the help of this I can talk to my descendants." he gave me the information I needed. Without waiting for my reply he continued.
"I detect the talents of my descendants and give them the right path to follow. But if you want to find your path by yourself you are most welcome. But let me remind you that our bloodline spirit is not an easy one to manifest. Five of the chain holders have died in the past." he told me things I have always wanted to know. About spirit manifestation.
"I can tell by looking at you. You have some talent. Aggression, Menace, Analysing, and oh.....good kid. You are going to bring mayhem." he said this with an evil smile.
"So what do you want to learn. No... let's see how much you can learn. Let me tell you that across all the generations, all your predecessors have held titles. The 3rd and 8th had the title of light speed because of their fast speeds. 2nd, 13th, and 14th had the title of mad menace. Others also had the titles but not everyone held a title like your uncle Raja." he taught me our history and continued.
"Some have even held multiple titles like the 9th. You have the same potential, I could see. I can teach you if you want. You can tell me right now what you want to learn first. Go ahead don't be shy with me now. We are all family here." he said excitedly.

"How do I even know what I have to learn?" I asked him.
"Sit down and calmly think about what you want in your life and what is it that you want to control. Is it your sick mind that likes to kill, or do you want to be so fast that nobody could touch you? Think and tell me." he became silent after giving me this advice.
"I don't even need to think. How about anger? I asked rather immediately. He looked at me and smirked.
"You are in luck kiddo. Among all the predecessors only one man had the title of wrath." he looked at me as his aura started increasing. It increased until it became suffocating. I started to feel dizzy.
"It was me." he declared.

Tales of the Willful Autonomous Nanobot Generator
Due to over-engineering and poor parenting; a nanobot generator is sent into the wider universe, ready to solve any and all problems...though probably not the way that was intended, or even hoped for. This story is a first time attempt to use a literary device I came up with, where I use 4 randomly selected songs to write short stories. As such there really won't be any cohesive story thread between chapters. If this gets traction, the likelihood for reader polls to influence the next story are high.

The Shattered Universe Saga - Deus Vult Alpha from Omega
This is book one. Rick West, a wounded Marine with a very unique past is transported, with a significant portion of Earth's population, to a new universe. One that is shattered and yet to coalesce under a divine law. This is the story of a military man who begins the saga immature, rough, careless of other’s feelings. A young man whose focus is on getting laid, fighting, and winning at every turn, regardless of cost. He gets caught up in a strange occurrence, along with a billion others, and finds himself in an oddly familiar place where life is lived as a timed-event role-playing game. He discovers that within the shattered universe he is a Mystic Player, a Marshal, a figure of power, potential, and probability. If he wins, he may even able to wrestle unto himself the very throne of heaven. Rick starts to build his Pantheon with his most trusted companions, friends, family, and a harem of strong and talented women. He faces challenges within himself and others, and also must lead his faction into battle with men and monsters. As Rick and his companions progress through the adventure games within the pocket universe, he develops a greater understanding of his humanity and the qualities of what makes each of us uniquely valuable. He grows mentally, emotionally, and spiritually, without really noticing how he is leaving his old existence behind. Striving against him for truly ultimate power are a thousand others with the same potential, the same possibilities. All are aligned on the spectrum from the brightest of minds, the lightest of hearts, to the darkest of souls. All Mystic Players, be they Monster or Marshal, share one characteristic. They thrive in chaos. And a shattered universe is a universe in chaos. At the end of the Saga, will the winner be someone worthy of emulation and even, if it were appropriate, of worship as an exemplar of divinity. Will the title granted to the Final Victor be EXEMPLAR, or will the title be DESPOILER? That is the question.
