The Outliers - Evolution to the World's Strongest

In a world where, unbeknownst to most of Earth's population, people with special powers exist, known as Meta-Humans. Such people belong to one of two opposing organizations. The first, known as Harmony, aims to coexist with regular society and protect them from superhuman or supernatural threats while remaining in the shadows. The second, known as Eden, aims to overthrow regular human society and establish a world where the super-powered reign supreme. These two opposing sides have been fighting for centuries, with countless conflicts scattered throughout history. The power balance between the two had remained even for a long time, and in order to tip the scales in their favor, Harmony began a certain project...the creation of nine orbs made using pure, natural power, known as Meta-Orbs. These orbs can grant a person unimaginable power, but right as the creation of these objects is completed, a conflict results in all nine Meta-Orbs being scattered throughout the world...and anyone who comes across them will gain immense power, even normal humans, therefore giving rise to the world's first unnatural Meta-Humans. And so, this ensues a vicious scramble between Eden and Harmony, as both sides look to find the people that come across the Meta-Orbs and take them into custody. These artificially-induced unnatural Meta-Humans are labeled as 'Outliers', and in the span of a few days, all of them have their lives irreversibly changed. Whether this change is for the better or worse, remains to be seen...

Chapter 78 - Monster Extermination(Part 4)

Point-of-View: Mike Barnes

"Uh, should we stop him-...never mind, that's a stupid question, it's too late now that he's killed the priest," Sighed Cyrillus, as Zoraiz tossed aside the priest's body onto the ground.

"Well, let's stay hidden unless he needs help...but against normal humans, I doubt he will," I responded, as Zoraiz turned his gaze to the other followers, all of whom had stopped what they were doing.

"Right...still, that was awfully reckless."

"True, but I can't exactly say I blame the kid. Also, I've seen him annoyed and irritated plenty of times, but I've never seen him this enraged and pissed off before...I don't think there was any stopping him, even if we did see this coming," I mused with a grimace.

I really didn't expect this mission to get so ugly, this was just supposed to be a simple Monster extermination mission...had I known this was a possibility, I wouldn't have brought him along.
