The Age of Gods!

During the next week, Lawra will make another visit.

This time, after letting her in. Both didn't know what to tell to each other!

They just sit and looked away from each other.

But Sebastin decided to break it down,

"...What makes you come visit me?". He asks firmly.

Lawra still looked at the ground, after some silence she replied.

"My guilt, I assume..."

Sebastin's look on the face did not change.

"Your guilt?

What guilt exactly?"

Lawra. "...The guilt of what I did back then! Don't act like you forgot about it."

Sebastin grinned. "Heh...Who said I did?

More importantly, is it just a coincidence that after it falling apart, you were reminded of that guilt?"

Lawra now switches her eyes towards Sebastin's.

"I knew you'll think so, you don't know what happened... Don't be too fast to judge things."

Sebastin stands up. "There is nothing to judge anymore Lawra.

I am glad to see you again, and to see that you're fine! But that's about it."

Lawra. "...Are you saying i am not welcome here anymore?"

Sebastin. "No, feel free to come anytime. If i was here I will open the door that's for sure.

I just don't know how we will be able to talk about pretty much anything of significance. Not that there isn't, but there's an immense wall between us. A wall you built with your own hands!"

Lawra had no answer, she wanted to say something but she couldn't.

So she just left as he watched her get out of the door.

Sebastin may be a fun young man with a playful spirit, but it seems that he had only showed that in a place where nobody knew him.

Here in his home, he's a different man!

He layed on his couch and turned on the T.V station. It immediatly showed A news channel.

Normally he would change it quickly, as he's not interested in the news.

But something told him to wait a little bit.

"With Last week's annoucements, the works to complete the New world's project are still on-going in a fast pace.

The President says that as it's name says, it's the start of a new world for the next generations towards the best future possible.

A future of advanced technology and safety!

As a reminder, the project will be applied in every big economical city! Not just in Western, but throughout all the globe.

This project was made and agreed on in the last UNESCO meeting, in 24 of June."

Sebastin found the news a bit weird.

"The New world Project? I never heard something about it before my trip.

How did they come up with such big project that involves the whole world! Usually they don't agree on shit when it comes to wars and miseries.

Whatever, I'll see about this..."

...

In fact, it wasn't only Sebastin that was watching the news. Elara was watching it with her parents too.

Her father asked her. "This is the first time you hear about this right?"

Elara noded with her face, as to say yes.

"Well they say it's just an experimental project, and that people are free to sign in it or not."

Elara. "What is the project actually?"

The father. "They never say the information directly, but from what i understand they're trying to combine human intelligence with technology."

Elara. "Human robots?"

The father laughs. "HAHAHAHAHHAAH Ridiculous right? But no not to that extent, just injecting some nano cells inside the human and see how it will react.

Basically giving people new limits, I attended a press conference the other week of a scientist that works in the same project.

There was a line that catched my attention very much, he said.

"The Age of Man is here, or I should say...The Age of Gods is here!"

I think he was just exagerating it to make a bigger impact on the listenners...He certainly did!

But nowadays everything is God this God that, Nieztsche was right to say that God is dead in the mind of most people..."

Elara stayed silent, thinking to herself what's the real deal with this project all of a sudden.

...

Ayla lives in a relatively small city, people of low income and simple lives.

The news haven't got her yet because they do not even switch on their TV that often. Even if it did, it wouldn't affect her area since it's only applied in big cities.

As for Herald, he has no time to even watch TV or mind himself with politics at this point.

He's thinking all the time about what is ahead of him, and what's the best decision he can make.

...

Koufonisi,

"They started earlier than we thought."

Alkeyder tells the Grand Master, who's sitting on his big chair in his dark room, crossing his fingers towards his face.

"They started earlier than they thought as well, they're afraid of us." .

Alkeyder. "I agree.

Still, I think it is better for you and all of us, to come back there.

The 10 Supreme Masters are waiting for you to decide once and for all, our final plan!"

The Grand master takes off his crossing fingers. and lays back a little, looking at the roof.

Suddenly, a tear got down his old weary cheek!!

Alkeyder got surprised. "Sir....Why are you shedding tears?"

The Grand master. "I don't really know why, probably because i can finally see what's ahead of us..."

*Somebody opened the door without knocking, and entered*

The room is very dark, only the moonlight shines a part of it.

With calm slow steps, he approached....

Alkeyder at first thought it was Heracles,

but then....

His feet started shaking unwillingly!!

Not only his feet....HIS ARMS AS WELL!!

Alkeyder....Shaking????

"I come in peace, my enemy." The mysterious invader says. as the light revealed his identity!!
