《The Almighty Boulder》The Protégés

Advertisement

Author here, well I'd like to than everyone for the comments and reviews , while most of you enjoy the story, pretty much everyone thinks that I should make chapters longer and that's noted, from now on I'll try to post longer and longer chapters.

Also something I'd like to add and that will be obvious later on is that not everything MC thinks is true but are phis assumptions only and if he makes mistakes it is simply because he doesn't have enough infos.

Carl (Your bloved Creator) PoV:

Time to spy on my good little soldiers, but seriously out of a million beings only 7 have enough balls to not pay attention to their creator, well that’s exactly what they need to be of good use to me in the future, free will.

And even amongst those seven only one really impressed me but the little fucker pissed me off by calling my good little explanation jesting.

So try to survive in an multi-elemental world as a rock, well I gave him quite an interesting ability for impressing me so we’re even I guess?

Lost in my thoughts in this hot bath, mortals call it lava but well details right, I suddenly get a pop-up warning from the link I made sure I had with my protégés and unsurprisingly it’s him again or wait is it her well I have to make sure to ask next time and tell him that he can choose his gender and is not bound by it, as for me I just love women so much I decided to be a man for good… Wait, what the hell am I reading, the little bugger already formed his core.

*stares blankly*

Hohoho, he really is surprising, this guy has been able to do that in a single day whilst it should have taken him a few months, well more taking into account where I sent him,, I’m sure that he’ll become strong, well anyone who kills hundreds of his own in front of his creator is bound to become so but he really is something else. He’ll have access to his ability well my ability now that he’s got his core I hope he’ll be able to master as soon as possible, it really is way too overpowered.

And here I had given him a form in addition to my gift but now it’s all for naught, *sights*, way to waste my efforts…

Even I would’ve never thought that a semi formed one would make it past step one actually as all of the six others are fully formed ones and clearly show strong colours but I’m pretty sure that that guy is only reddish at best but hey that makes it even more enjoying. And it really proves that anyone can become strong, well not with the same amount of efforts , that’s a given but he should be able to pull it off

Oh someone else made something worthy of being reported to me…

Really what the hell is going on, another one formed his core.

Oy stop bullshitting me, are these guys geniuses or what, let’s just see what happened to these two.

(An hour later):

These guy will be entertaining for sure, I can feel it already, if one makes his own luck and ended things with his own hands then the other has a better control over his body well bodies and is really smart.

Carl as he heard that bugger call him and found it quite the interesting name started analysing what he had just seen and clearly recalls the bugger or as he will call him Rocky (yes even as a creator his naming senses are terrible) hiding amongst the trees and watching his preys as an amateur waiting for his wine to become perfect for consumption and finally as if a start signal was given, he saw him simply one-shooting each of them with a stab to the heart and a slice to the neck.

As ruthless and bloody as that was, Carl was watching it like a painter savouring a junior’s first work, a rough gem that only needs to be polished, the most important thing is there: potential, passion and lust, a lust for strength. Rocky was obviously a natural at this.

He could feel it, Rocky is a remainder of himself, he had some doubt at first but now it’s becoming clear, this little fella is most certainly the one who inherited the most from him, now he felt that it was his responsibility to bring his protégé to his upmost and reveal what he really is capable of.

Carl really felt good, even if he had been betrayed, and banished, he finally had a way to get his revenge and he shalt savour every little bit of it, the only thing left to do right now was to wait for everything to get done. Like a chef waiting for his bacon to start sizzling to know that it’s done.

If Rocky will be his one man army, the other talent will be his two men army by himself, and if Rocky had impressed Carl by his cold blooded massacre, his counterpart had impressed him with his rationalism and thinking, he had started asking questions to Carl and trying to find loopholes to his story and that was the main reason he was allowed to survive, on a hunch and that hunch had now proven him right, it really was a wise choice in the end.

Crystal seems like a name befitting of him, while Rocky was a mix of mineral with a reddish colours, his counterpart was a perfect diamond. And as diamonds he was graceful and a thinker, he had managed something that took Carl quite some decades to accomplish (not that he would ever acknowledge it).

And Crystal had clearly something Carl himself had always missed, a powerful brain, that’s the same thing as being a genius as he can do several things at once at an alarming scale, instead of going for stronger opponents, and as he had not absorbed as much energy as Rocky, he decided to go a whole other route, now the most important thing to remember is that my protégés have two main choices, either stay as a whole to be one powerful scary rock or reproduce, that may sound attractive but they’re rocks, it really is too much calling it reproduce since they pretty much just go through a process that resembles fission and create two weaker equal bodies, then four, eight and so on, obviously the down side with this road is that once you become a bit powerful you don’t want to be weaker so most people try to avoid it add to that the fact that the more you reproduce the weaker you become and that pretty much seals the deal but there’s also something that Crystal realised.

Let’s say that someone’s potential is 100, if he goes through the normal route and works really hard then he can achieve 90 maybe even more if he’s a genius at his field but my protégés can achieve 200 if they reproduce once, a hundred for each body. Now pretty much anyone would do that if those were the only conditions as the upsides compensate for the downsides but there’s one thing that makes this technique not viable and that is your brain doesn’t split and that means having to run to lives at once and if you try that it’s easy just try to write something down with your write hand while eating a sandwich and humming a song, if you can then what are you doing on that shitty planet of yours?

(Don't try this at home disclaimer?)

Well, back to business, Crystal can perfectly control two bodies and is using them to gain experience twice as fast as anyone and he decided to go for multiple weaker goblins, that was a massacre as he got rid of a whooping 20 goblins with his two bodies after having gained enough experience from killing and crushing insects then animals,now how he killed those goblins is really befitting of him, when he became big enough, only thing he had left to do was make a hole big enough and have one of his bodies get down there and get spikes out at the ready and finally with his second body, flattened over the pit with dirt and dead leafs to hide himself, he only had to wait to get his kills, and he was also quite lucky since a troop of goblins happened to fall there and get him enough to grow a core.
