The Mighty Traveler

When a man wakes up to his world destroyed and left alone, he is met with a voice asking for his wishes. But how can one think realizing you are alone, your home gone, your life erased and your expectations vanished. Paul Egon Esteban, a man from earth that has been able to unite all nations and started to develop into the space faring age around the middle of the 21st century. Is a patient of a rare disease that has no cure currently has been placed into a state of the art research facility that would place him and many other of people with similar situations into cryostasis sleep until cures for their sickness had been discovered. But one day he was awoken suddenly as his cryopod has lost all functionality with only a tattered nurse droid taking care of him. Confused, Dizzy and totally Discombobulated, Paul walked out only to find the facility he has been on is now decrepit and destroyed. It wasn't until checking the droid did he find out he was now in the last years of the 22nd century nearly entering the 23rd. Shocked and scared he tried going out of the place only to find out a dry wasteland that was Earth. Mind blanked and shocked, he trudged the land as he realized he was all alone. A former city full of wonder and people turned to dust. It wasn't until his dazed state lingered for a bit did he get a few seconds of semblance of the thing in his eyes. {Was that all you wished for?} Not understanding what it was and why it was there, Paul agreed on something he forgot that he wanted. Light swallowed him and now took him into another world for another chance in life. (A/N: I transferred my fanfic here because the one where I first posted it was a reused dropped novel, which means the setting of the book is still a novel so I might get flagged for copyright or something. So I transferred the whole thing as well as editing the stuff that I might find correcting or adding details.)

"Yes, I am human but this body is not. Did you all not notice that I have not taken a meal ever since? I am physically stronger and could lift a lot of weight? But even then that is weaker that my real body and other vessels. For Psionic energy, I did say that the mind is a wonderful place and I meant it." Paul waved his hand and the orb in the ground floated up to continue its presentation.

 

"Many humans have shown such talents in history, when their mind evolved into another state of being. Making them do superhuman feats that no one could explain, one of which is telekinesis. Controlling something using the mind, Rita has something similar like the one she used on the Genod's children…"

 

"…reason why that Rita has to take another version of the Virus that came from Kentrassi. Each of the Seven Devils has a different coded virus that gave them their specific abilities. Due to Rita being born from Narisa she has a physique better suited to control the virus…"

 

"…but if she gets Kentrassi's then she might develop a different Virus that would combine the qualities of the two Seven Devils. And might turn into something greater than the seven devils themselves and only equal to…"

 

"The Queen…" Kana said in understanding.

 

"Right, as I was saying earlier. You both are going to become famous and get inside Union Busan to meet Dr. Foid to have him check up on Rita. Lie to him telling him that you wanted her to be cured, but like I said that Doctor would totally inject Rita with Kentrassi's virus. But once it is done Rita will be able to command Kentrassi, yet all of this will be only a part of the plan…" Paul felt the three kids sleep on his back and he held them still with his telekinesis.

 

"…we will all broadcast that you two have killed the pair of Genod's and tell the truth about the mayor of this town. Mr. Mao will be mayor but while that is in the surface, I will train Jako's and the other fishermen to fight sea monsters. Meanwhile since both will be famous, the captain of the ship would totally try to win you over…" Paul made the orb show the picture of the captain.

 

"…but before that I will show you the situation of the people in Union Busan. There the water is being rationed while the fat idiots on top bath in luxury and eat in abundance. 

 

"…this cowardly sack of shit will try to coerce Kana into going back as a harpoonist because the fat assed higher ups will think that many more will apply to become harpoonist if Kana a former refugee becomes the leader and if you add the fact that she has killed Genod then those grease balls will totally salivate like the hungry oil ridden flea bags they are, thinking of ways how to get her to work for them…"

 

"…but to do that they will have to pardon Kana who will surely have Bota and Rita pardoned too which will make them eligible to the shares owned by the family of Narisa. Even though the Na family has the lowest share holder that is enough for Bota to have a say being a descendant of the Suwon Na clan…"

 

"…" the others were looking intently at Bota as well as Rita hearing they were part of a rich family in Union Busan.

 

"…but everything will surely go to hell as soon as Kentrassi makes its move, I surely know that thing is very smart and would try to study how people open doors. So it will likely break out of its confines once it is confident in escaping. Yet surely those puss heads with lots of money would close the paths to the upper deck to avoid the massacre…"

 

"… since they are so cowardly that they do not care about the lives of those below because their rotted brains that even sea monsters won't eat think that they are safe in their lavish confines. But at that time Rita would have its virus assimilated making her able to control that thing…"

 

"!"

 

"…yes, and after that she can lead the big ass Sea Devil to kill the nine top shareholders since they are fat enough to feed the large Kentrassi but since they are human trash then maybe the beast will get an indigestion. Then Bota will get hold of Union Busan and Rita can have Kentrassi hide under the ship then be its protector making it under the hands of their family. They can make reforms to clean out the bad things in the shelter…"

 

"Whoa, this is so detailed…" Jako was stunned at how Paul gave out a plan that seemed to be too good to be true.

 

"…then you can start with the walking Insecurity bag Dohu then go all the way up the useless sacks of meat that no one wants in the rich people area. Then you can totally train the harpoonist again in a stricter manner under Kana to make them understand their duties and also to prepare for war against the Queen…"

 

"Call upon the other unions for a meeting and show them who to kill and where to do it. And before we can go there, I and Teon Ma will train the people here as well as make them battle ready because the Queen is not joke. I cannot take her on alone so I might need the help of a lot of people, including the psycho Clark Miller…"

 

"!" Sonia perked up at the mention of Clark.

 

"…did you know that guy controls all of the floating city of new york with an iron fist killing all the bad apples himself and scaring the others into his control. When he was a kid his father found his fondness of hurting things when he almost killed his brother, so he pointed the guy's bloodthirstiness towards the Sea Monsters and that is why the guy became good at this job…"

 

"…but he is a psycho that only thinks about fighting, he's been searching for me for a few years just to fight me as that guy is totally bored like hell. So maybe after Kana and Bota gets famous he'll try to challenge them too, hmmm…  what else?" Paul was thoughtful as he was making sure he left nothing out.

 

"So that's why they called him the Curse Demon…" Gongtae was amazed at how much Paul insulted the people he does not like in a rapid fire manner that at one instance he insulted the rich people of Busan thrice with no repeated sentence or insult.

 

"I too felt a bit of pity towards the fat grease balls of Inion Busan at the way he insulted them, oh no! I am insulting them as well too!" Sonia said as she looked horrified at how Paul influenced her.

 

"That seems so, but it is hard to talk about human pieces of trash that cannot be recycled without uttering a few scathing remarks." The new Mayor Mr. Mao said as he also spewed insults at the rich people.

 

"See? Even humans have people that act lower than Sea Monsters. At least these Sea monsters only acted on instinct to eat as they hunted us but these people are worse than that. The Sea monsters did not ask to be mutated and influenced by the design of their queen. But these morons were not influenced but rather were raised by past generations of trash." Paul said with proud eyes as he looked at Mr. Mao and Sonia.

 

"So that's about the general Plan, Noah already fished the corpse of the Genods under the ruble and brought extra equipment as well. Mayor Moa will announce the kill of Kana and Bota all over while spreading the things that are happening on Union Busan. While I will stay and deter anyone trying to assault this place and act as its temporary guardian. Teon Ma will stay as well hidden as our wild card in the battle." Paul made the kids float in front of him while they slept peacefully.

 

"How can such a pure girl become a monster? Don't worry little Rita, you are no monster…" Paul patted Rita's head as he handed her to Teon who cradled his daughter in his arms.

 

"I'll have the ship anchor in front, but do not let anyone in okay. Only Ling and Noah are allowed." Paul then transformed back into his human form then stood up.

 

"Now let us address the people shall we, Mayor Mao I think this is your stage." Paul handed the mayor a script making him look into it and realize it is him announcing the deaths of Genod to the world and awarding Kana and Bota as well as the famous Curse Demon will be staying in the Port Oasis for an unknown amount of time.

 

Paul had thought about how to recruit people into his fold and bring them back home. So he came up with the "I am from another world" story and wanted these Harpoonist to be his future warriors.

 

He had seen how the virus seemed to slowly increase the physical parameters of the humans in this planet. Kana alone is totally a super soldier with her moves and added Teon Ma means that the potential of the people of this planet is blooming.

 

He would still have to purge them of the virus if he brings them out or render them unable to spread and infect people. He too wanted to bring Bota and Rita with him as they are also gifted mutants.

 

He can pass them as mutants on the Marvel World and no one would think otherwise. He does plan to have his modified Virus be able to change the genetic makeup of the people he'll bring similar to how an X-gene works.

 

Xavier, Henry McCoy, Reed Richards, Bolivar Trask and even Nathaniel Essex's knowledge in genetic engineering enabled Paul to understand and even able to program the virus in a few year only while that Dr. Foid had to research 130 years of knowledge in this planet to barely scratch the surface.

 

Now Paul found that he has nothing more to learn in this reality so he would just rather leave and find some more. But at least not before he gets some workers and warriors to be loyal to him.

 

Mayor Mao did as he was told and announced in an open frequency as well on live camera the dark history of the Port Oasis and how it became to be the only Island to have no Sea Monsters attacking it. He was facing the hundreds of people of Port Oasis in a podium while a large curtained item was behind the stage.

 

Union Busan, Floating City of New York, Union Benin, Trade Port, Akroma and Union Notre Dame as well as the various surviving ethnicities in the world were watching as the new Mayor announced the deaths of a male and female Genod. This news made the reporters of every group go on live as well as they explained the happenings in Port Oasis for views.

 

This shocked many as they have never thought that there were two Genods and then they heard that two harpoonist has killed them that are now staying in Port Oasis.

 

First was Kana who was already famous before and was thought to have been a criminal to Union Busan. Now she has become a leviathan Killer.

 

Mayor Mao even added how she trained really hard to get revenge on Skutoom for killing her whole family in the past. A refugee that worked her best and now a holder of the red star that means she has killed a leviathan.

 

Next is Bota Ma, son of Teon Ma and Narissa of the Suwon Na clan. A son of a lady of a prestigious family and the only six starred Harpoonist currently in history making those listening awed at the family of the kid.

 

He told that they were criminals in the Union Busan but he then gave a story of how a jealous man named Dohu was so insecure that the mother of Bota Ma did not like him and chose Teon Ma a heroic Harpoonist famed all around.

 

Then the Mayor talked about how the family had to survive in the sea alone after being driven out by the higher ups of Busan and how Narisa persevered to the end and gave birth to two kind children. But she died of Fish Disease in the end, yet the mayor added more emotional elements in the story as he was swept away in his story telling.

 

Many were crying at the beautiful story but at the Union Busan a man with a scar on his face was smashing thing around as he fumed at the words of the Mayor.

 

Then the mayor went on about how the kids were raised by their father who taught them about the good things their mother did. But tragedy struck, Kentrassi the Sea Devil found the family.

 

Mayor Mao talked about how Bota said that his father fought with all that he had to kill Kentrassi single handedly with no help and killing it in a suicidal sacrifice by blowing up a warhead on Kentrassi's back yet Teon Ma was also swept up by the shockwave that he was never to have been found.

 

Paul change the narrative in this part as he wanted to have Teon Ma appear in a vital moment. Then the Mayor called for Bota to talk about his experience up until now.

 

This made Bota nervous but he looked at the script and read it as he knew everything was true so it did not become hard for him. He talked about how he survived in the sea alone with his sister and how they almost died being eaten by Kentrassi's children.

 

Bota also talked about how Kana arrived on time to save him and brought him back to Union Busan where he learned of his father's past. There he found a job in the ship and made a living, up until how Dohu again appeared picking on Bota and Rita who was 13 years old and 9 years old that time.

 

Paul had Bota emphasize the age and then talked about the events that led him and Kana to run away until they arrived here in Port Oasis. Which became a new home for the siblings, as well as how he promised to become strong so be was trained by Kana into how a harpoonist fights.

 

Until recently when they learned of the atrocious acts of the previous Mayor who they left for dead in the underground settlement but Bota did not say the part about leaving the last Mayor. Then he talked about how Genod kidnapped his sister so he and Kana as well as other people came to the nest to kill Genod.

 

Only to find out that there were two of them, a male that kidnaps people and a female that turns the captured into their children. But Paul had Bota say that they arrived there in time where no one kidnaped was turned by the female yet.

 

The end was he and Kana killed one each and that it was a hard thing to do but his love for his sister compelled him to step up and do what is needed to be done. Paul did not let Kana talk because the girl is too blunt and somehow airheaded sometimes.

 

After this the Mayor took the microphone to announce that the Port Oasis is building their own Harpoonist Force since Genod is now dead. And the one to lead it is none other than the famed Curse Demon, the mayor still did not talk about Paul's name as people had forgotten already what his name was when he introduced himself before.

 

It was also then that speed boats from different bases arrived on shore which Paul had deliberately done. Thus he had those close to be lost for a few hours while the ones far were suddenly boosted by the waves.

 

Kana and Bota stood in front of the stage as the various vessels showed different groups from different bases. From Union Busan is a group led by Brune who is currently the top harpoonist of Busan, while in New York is a female Harpoonist with purple dyed hair named Tasha . While others have teams of at least Three star Harpoonist with some two stars and one stars.

 

Then Paul appeared in his tall fully armored form with his Axe and chains. His walk made the ground thus at the heavy equipment he wore while some fishermen who were now wearing uniform equipment followed behind Paul in formation.

 

He stood on the shore as he stared in silence towards the guest that arrived. The Cameras zoomed in on his figure as he looked like an iron Statue in front of the guest Harpoonist.

 

It was then the curtains behind the stage was pulled off and showed the two corpses of the pair of Genods.

 

"*Gasp!*" many females fainted at the bloody sight but this was essential as the cameras showed the corpses of the dead Seven Devils throughout the world.

 

Paul did not mind as he knew this will push thing a bit forward but it will at least give this world hope for a new chance in living with no fear of Sea Monsters.
