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 79 - Monster Extermination(Part 5)

Point-of-View: Zoraiz Rafayet

———————————————————————————

I...I could only save three of them. But there were so many more of them down there...all of whom I had no choice but to leave them to die, because I just wasn't strong enough to save them all. Who knows how long they'd been suffering...and now, just like that, they're dead, without ever getting the chance to get back to the lives they once knew.

"Hey, chin up, kid...you did good, alright?" Mike placed a hand on my shoulder, as he walked over to me, "There was nothing more you could do once a Monster that big showed up, don't be too hard on yourself."

That's right, the Monster...

"About that...hey, tell me, was it my fault that it showed up in the first place?" I inquired, as I met his gaze.

"Uh, n-no, of course not-!" He began to deny, after looking a bit taken aback initially.

"Cut the crap...be honest, was it my fault?" I interrupted, as I met his gaze with a grimace.
