Wednesday, 16th of October 2019 - Unknown planet:

Kiet, Reaper, Lian, Weq, Hial and Meltdown were on an unknown planet. The planet is as big as the Earth’s moon. The planet had no living being on it. And it was all dark.

To add more to the weirdness of the planet, this planet had no water or mountains or anything like that until a week ago. It was a desert with a sea in the middle of it. Now, the planet is reformed. It has mountains now, rocks, vegetations, tress and more.

They were fighting monsters made of elements.

They were fighting fire elementals, water elementals, earth elementals and wind elementals.

Lian ran between the elementals and dodged all of their attacks.

She needed some time in order to use her spells. But the elementals won’t give her a chance.

“Damn, these guys won’t give me a chance.”

“I know, they are annoying,” Meltdown said.

He said it slowly but she heard it.

It was simple, they were using the communication devices. They were using the device that Nazar had given them. Those devices are very durable.

“I kill them and they come back immediately.”

“Should I just destroy the whole world?” Reaper said.

“No.”

“No.”

“No.”

“No.”

“No.”

They all said it together.

Hial was also moving around among the elementals.

Weq was not fighting. His weapon is intelligence. So, he was in a spaceship above the planet.

Kiet was fighting elementals as well. And he was wearing armour.

The colour of the armour was black and it covered all of his body. It was very thin but very strong. The armour had LED-like lights around the joints and it would occasionally change colours. For example, if he is using energy based weapons, it would be blue but if he was using bullets then it would be red. And if he wanted to fly, it would turn to yellow. Using it as a defence would turn the lights purple.

The armour had many capabilities. It could shoot any kind of energy blasts that surrounded him. So, as the Reaper manipulates the quantum realm, Kiet can use Reaper’s residual energies as a weapon.

The armour can also change its size and shape. For example, he can use it to create a sword for close-range combat.

“Where is Nazar?” Reaper asked.

Reaper released a massive burst of energy from all around his body and he destroyed all of the elementals.

However, more appeared less than a second later.

Reaper sighed.

“He is around,” Meltdown said. “I can sense his energy. He is close but it's very faint.”

Lian gasped.

“Wh-what if… What if he is flirting with another girl?”

Lian jumped a few meters into the air and a magic circle appeared beneath a fire elemental.

After a second, the fire elemental froze.

She jumped down and punched it and the elemental broke into small pieces.

However, another elemental was replaced by it.

“GODDAMNIT!!”

She shouted on top of her lungs.

“These people are annoying.”

“Yeah, it's getting annoying,” Hial said.

Hial had super strength and durability. So, if he gets a hit from an elemental and he would not really feel anything.

He punched earth elemental and it broke to pieces.

But as usual, more elementals appeared less than a second later.

Hial groaned.

From Kiet’s armour, a few weapons appeared and they all shot energy blasts from it.

The elementals were destroyed but more replaced it less than a second.

He sighed.

“I cannot find anything,” Weq said.

They all sighed.

“Don’t worry, I got it,” Nazar.

Nazar was flying very fast towards the planet.

“He is coming very fast towards the planet. If he hits it at this speed, he could destroy it,” Weq said.

They all teleported out of the planet and appeared in the spaceship.

Nazar flew past them.

He flew through the planet and it blew up.

The others could not really see anything.

“When I said I would do it, you all said no,” Reaper said. “We could have ended this earlier.”

“Well...” Lian said as she scratched her head.

After a few minutes, they could see what was going on.

Nazar was now floating where the centre of the planet was.

“He looks so cool.”

“Stop drooling over a human,” Hial said in a disinterested tone.

“But why did he destroy--!!”

Weq trailed off.

He quickly tapped a few keys on the keyboard.

“What is-- Ah.”

Kiet caught up with what was going on.

Lian and Hial were confused.

But Reaper and Meltdown noticed it a little earlier.

“Hey, what’s going on?” Lian asked.

“The planet...” Meltdown said.

“It's coming together again. It was destroyed but now it is recreated itself.”

“What?!”

“Why is he still there? He is not moving.”

“No idea, Lian.”

Nazar saw what was happening around him.

The planet was forming itself around him.

However, he didn’t care.

He let it happen.

After a few minutes, Nazar was at the centre of the planet.

He was trapped at the core of the planet.

The rocks were holding him in one place.

In the spaceship, the others were surprised as to what was going on.

Something unnatural was happening before their eyes.

“H-how is this even possible?” Hial asked.

“Time manipulation, perhaps?” Lian said.

“No. I don’t see any traces of time manipulation,” Reaper said.

Hial gave him a confused look.

“It leaves traces of energy behind. And I cannot feel it,” Meltdown said.

“Then what?”

“... I don’t know...”

Weq said as he kept on tapping keys on the computer in front of him.

“Oh, and the elementals are back,” Kiet said.

“Damn it,” Lian said. “I don’t think I can deal with this.”

“Why are we doing this anyway?”

Kiet took a deep breath.

“Well, Nazar said that there are new forms of beings who control primal forces or things of this universe. And they keep changing the power scales. So, we need to bring them all together and take care of them.”

“And we tracked one of these beings to this planet,” Weq added. “We think they might be controlling the planet and these elementals.”

“Where was he anyway?” Lian said slowly.

“I was busy. I took care of another one of them. She was not weak but she was very friendly.”

They all heard Nazar’s voice from the communication device.

“I knew he was flirting with another girl,” Lian muttered to herself.

“I heard that.”

“How was she like? What did she look like?”

“She had light blue skin and no hair. She looked like a combination of a human woman and a fish. It was… weird.”

Nazar sighed.

“Anyway, stay there. I am close to finding this person, too.”

“Okay,” Kiet said.

Nazar was at the core of this small planet.

Rock was holding him back. He could escape but he didn’t want to.

Right in front of him, small space appeared.

And in that small space, a figure appeared.

Upon closer inspection, Nazar noticed that it was human-like being made of rocks.

“What do you want, Nazar?”

Nazar was not surprised that the being knew his name.

Nazar told them about what he is currently doing to the universe.

The being thought about it for a minute.

“And how do you know this?”

“Well… Lucifer told me.”

“Ah, I see.”

The being let go of Nazar.

“I thought you guys were with the others.”

“Others?”

“When I was first got this power, I ran away from my homeworld. I nearly destroyed the whole world. I came here to stay away from them. I transformed this world into what it is.”

“I see…?”

“I used to be on the surface, so they tried to steal me and sell me on the black market?”

The being laughed.

“So, I came to the core of the planet and placed the elementals to try and protect myself.”

“Oh.”

“So, I was a little… you know, hostile.”

“I understand.”

Nazar took a deep breath.

“So, I want you to come to these coordinates and I will get rid of that abnormal energy. Will you do it?”

That being thought about it.

“So, what happens if you don’t get rid of it?”

“As I said earlier, if a being from another universe comes here, they will be much more powerful and dealing with them with be hard. If a demon comes here, they will be very strong and they can destroy a universe very easily. And the whole universe can attract all kind of people.”

The being taught about it again.

“Okay. But do you absolutely have to?”

“I don’t know… But it's better than dealing with people who get stronger here as soon as they get here.”

“I see… Okay, I will be there.”

“Thanks.”

Nazar smiled.

He then phased through the planet.

After he reached the surface, he teleported and appeared inside the spaceship.

He sat on a chair and sighed.

“Well, that was easy...”

“What happened?” Lian asked.

“Well, I talked to them. And it was solved.”

“I see...”

“Now, onto the next one.”

“How many more?” Hial asked.

“At least 20 my brother told me about.”

“Brother?”

They all looked a little confused.

“He is also one of the cosmic entities.”

They were all frozen in their place due to shock.

Seeing their surprise, Nazar sighed.

“It’s a long story.”

Nazar stood up.

“So, that is 3 out of 20 we know about.”

“Ah, one more thing.”

Kiet said out loud.

“When do we discuss the technology problem?”

“Oh, my AI actually self-destructed a few times for some reason. She gave me the data and said something is wrong. But I guess that’s not related to the technology problem--”

“Actually, it is related. We had an AI system in the empire to take care of some stuff but it self destructed because someone tried to take control of it. And all our big weapons went missing. And all of our old spaceships are under their control.”

“Same.”

“Same.”

Both Weq and Hial said at the same time.

Nazar started to look concerned.

“Wait, are we talking about the same weapons that you guys have? The weapons that could possibly destroy planets?”

All three of them nodded.

“Shit!”

He stood up.

“We need to take care of this problem first.”

“About that...”

They all looked at Reaper.

“I heard rumours about a being who calls himself the Technod, the God of Technology.”

“That’s our best lead,” Nazar said immediately.

“Are you sure?”

Nazar nodded.

“So, where is he, Reaper?”

“I heard about him on a planet in another galaxy. A few galaxies away from here.”

“Give me the coordinates.”

Reaper was confused.

“I don’t know.”

Nazar frowned.

“Can you teleport to that place?”

“Okay?”

Reaper teleported out.

And he reappeared after 5 seconds.

“Got the coordinates. Thanks.”

Nazar touched the spaceship and they were teleported to that place. They appear just above it.

Kiet gave him a blank look.

“The spaceship could have done that.”

“I thought the tech was messed up with?”

“Yes, but we made this after that. So, I guess it is not messed up.”

“Anyway, where did you get the-- What is up with this planet?”

“It is a planet without any development. In this galaxy, it is the biggest black market,” Reaper said. “Slave trade, illegal tech and so much more.”

“No big deal--”

“And the thing is, it only took the planet less than a week to become like this.”

Weq tried to cloak the spaceship, but something else happened.

Someone else took control of it.

The spaceship prepared to fly somewhere.

But Nazar teleported all of them to the surface of the planet.

The planet was no different than earth during the medieval times.

However, the technology they are selling was very advanced.

Nazar looked around him and saw slaves. Slaves who had devices around their necks. The devices were high tech, so if they tried to disobey them, they will die immediately.

(The universe is big.)

Nazar went inside this minds.

And all he saw was sad stories. Stories of how they never had a life. Stories of how they have always been like this. Stories of how they want it all to end.

Nazar was truly frozen this time. He was frozen in horror. His mind was blank.

“First time seeing a scene like this?” Kiet asked him.

When he heard Kiet’s voice, he snapped back to reality. He left their minds.

Nazar nodded.

“The universe is big. The unpleasant things? This is not even bad compared to some of them.”

Nazar looked at him.

“Ah?”

“Trust me, you don’t want to know about it.”

“You know, there is a rumour about a planet,” Reaper said.

Nazar looked at Reaper who was walking behind him.

“Rumour?”

“A planet where a few ‘immortal’ beings live. Everyone else is only born because they are food to them. They eat them and expand their life.”

“If you think you had it bad, wait till you see them. And there are worse things than that,” Kiet added. “We are just mortals. We keep our own safe and leave the others to themselves.”

Nazar could not believe what he was seeing before his eyes.

Slaves born for nothing but to be used. No life. No free will. Nothing.

Nazar gritted his teeth.

“I thought I had it bad,” Nazar muttered.

The others looked at him in confusion.

He looked at his hand.

He clenched and unclenched it.

“This stops now!”

“No, no. Don’t intere--”

Nazar’s hand lit up with yellow energy.

He sat on his right knee.

And then he slammed his fist into the ground.

As he did, a crack appeared in the ground.

“What are--”

“Shut up! Don’t interfere,” Nazar said while gritting his teeth.

After a while, the whole planet was covered by that yellow energy.

As soon as the yellow energy touched the slaves, they were freed. The devices broke apart.

The slaves looked at each other in confusion.

And they ran away from their owners.

Their owner tried to go after them but they couldn’t catch them all.

“What did you do?!”

Kiet sounded angry.

Nazar stood up.

“I had to do it… but it was also necessary.”

“Ah?”

A few meters in front of them, a massive crack opened up.

From there, someone came out.

It had a humanoid form but it was different.

“Hello, Nazar,” the being said. “I didn’t expect to see you here.”

Nazar analysed it and found out that it is a being made of technorganic technology.

It can take any shape it desires.

But the overall silhouette of the being looked a lot like a human.

“You are the ‘Technod’?”

The being nodded.

“I am Technod, the Techno-Organic God.”

Nazar gave him a blank look.

He didn’t understand the name and the title it gave itself.

“I am one of the new Cosmic Entities.”

The being appeared in front of Nazar.

“And you made a grave mistake.”

It tried to punch Nazar but he was too slow for Nazar.

“You are weak, human.”

The whole planet beneath them started to shake.

Technod raised its hands and spaceships stated to hover above the city.

Nazar looked all around the world and found out that spaceships were hovering all over the world.

“Ho?”

All spaceships pointed its weapons towards Nazar and the planet.

Technod laughed.

“Save this planet if you can.”
