Chapter 17 : Out of the body (part 2)

Present time,

Morning,

Suddenly, the doorbell of Myth's dome room rings and a sound comes from the speaker near the door.

"Myth opens the door it's me rookie".

After opening the door myth asked "what happened, why are you in such a hurry".

"I am in such a hurry because chief is looking for you. So get ready ASAP" said rookie.

Myth is completely shocked to hear this because never before has his Chief called him to meet. This is going to be the first official meeting of Myth and his Chief.

Wait a bit, let me grab some clothes. Saying this myth returned to his room.

After sometime he comes out of his room wearing a shirt and black pants and carrying a notepad with him, Seeing notepad rookie asked " what's that"?

I tell you later - myth replied.

Then both of them went towards the Chief's office.

After arriving in the office, Both of them saw the chief is standing near the window, seeing them come he signaled them to sit.

Just when both of them was about to sit the chief said "Not you rookie, I want to talk myth in private.

Hearing This rookie replied - OK boss.

Then, he left the office.

Seeing all this, Myth gets very confused and starts thinking what is the matter that Chief has asked Rookie to go out.

"Would you like to take something" CHIEF asked.

"No, I am fine" Myth replied.

"I think it's a high time that we should talk about your situation?" said chief.

Hearing this myth hung his head as if he was thinking something.

After this, both of them become silent for some time.

Although Myth hasn't been in TMC for long time but because of everyone blind faith in Chief, he had also started trusting him.

Finally after thinking for a while he had decided that he will not hide anything from the Chief and then he gave his notepad to the chief and he also told everything to the Chief. After reading what was written on the notepad, the Chief takes a deep breath and asks Myth. "Myth What do you think is the most important thing in all the worlds?

Hearing this, Myth becames silent for a while, because he did not understand what it had to do with his problem and before he could saw anything the chief answered by himself "talent". Talent is very important in all the worlds and I am not talking about the talent that we develop ourselves when we grow up, I am talking about the borntalent with which we are born.

For example, if you do not have the talent to be a magician, then it doesn't matter how hard you try you can't become a magician at least not without a lucky encounter, Or even if one somehow becomes a magician he/she had to work very very hard. In the same way if one do not have the talent to do research or to become a scientist, then you will never be able to become one.

While hearing all of this Myth became more confused and then he asks what all these had to do with my case.

Chief replied - there is a very big connection between this and your problem.

Do you know what are the abilities of multiverse fragments(It is the name of mysterious crystal that brought myth to TMC).

Myth shook his head in negative.

Seeing this chief Continues "Crystal has many specialties, but its most important feature is that it can give multiple talents to anyone, but keep in mind that anyone's talent comes in handy only when someone tries to improve his talent.

Always remember it only gives talents and abilities. but if one is not hard working then ones talent will go in vain. Same for you even though you have gotten all the talents from this crystal, but you have to practice all these talents, otherwise all these talents will be wasted for you too. Hearing this the myth calms down for a while then he asked "what do you think I should do?"

"Practice" chief replied.

After this myth asked what was all that happened with him in the alleyway and in the bathroom, hearing this the chief replied that it is just a side effect.

Because all of these talents has came from the existence your doppelganger and along with these talents some old memories and abilities has also manage to snick in, But don't worry, with time all these memories will disappear.

Wait wait wait you said "existence not body" why myth asked.

Ooh you noticed answered CHIEF.

Ever heard the term of equal exchange.

the crystal let the host to inherit all the talents of the doppelganger and the price is the existence of all the doppelganger.

"So, you are saying that I haven't inherited the talent instead I have inherited their existence".Myth asked with a shocked expression.

Yes chief replied.

Then, how long is this multiple personalities side effects is gonna last.

"few weeks may be" chief replied.

By now myth's many questions has been answered but with those answers came more uncertainty.

Without saying anything myth sat there for almost half an hour.

After half an hour myth opened his mouth multiple times as if he want to say something. Seeing him in such a condition CHIEF sighed and said " Not everything is in our hand, sometimes we have compromise with the situation, I know you are confused and worried but being confused and worried is not gonna solve anything.

After taking a deep breath myth asked "what do you think I should do?

Hearing this chief smiled and said" the crystal had given you many gifts, Don't waste them. This world is more big and cruel than you can imagine and these talents of yours are gonna came in handy if you want to survive in this world. So, sharpen your talent. Don't let them rust.

After saying this the chief pressed a button on a phone like device, while pressing the button he asked rookie to get in here. Then he cut the call.

After sometime rookie entered the room, while saying "what can I do for you boss?"

take him to the magic world and teach him some magic CHIEF said.

Magic! does he have a talent for that? rookie asked.

Hearing this line both CHIEF and myth started smiling.
