Cosmic Spark

From her superior, she had heard about this ability. It was a single ability that gives the user almost unrivaled power in existence.

After seeing him transmutating Amir's body, she thought of this guess!

Cosmic Manipulation can allow its user to create, shape, and manipulate cosmic energies to produce nearly any effect they desire! Only this could explain why his teleportation ability wasn't restricted even after the use of an electromagnetic field and other devices!

He could simply create inter-dimensional portals during teleportation! For someone with this great ability, teleporting others from a long distance was as easy as breathing!

How could ability nullifying energy waves work on someone who has the ultimate control over the very source of this world? All forms of energy ultimately were derivatives of cosmic energy! It was the energy on which the whole world runs.

This could explain why the presence of golden lightning can erase their abilities! Their power derived from divine particles but his powers were cosmic in nature!

Kiba was startled by her words, but he smiled.

"You surprise me once again," Kiba looked at her and said," Then again you are from World Government so I am not shocked."

Lisa trembled, her eyes wide with disbelief. She wasn't sure of her earlier guess but now his words confirmed her suspicions!

"H-how could you have Cosmic powers? The mutation caused by Divine Particles can't grant one power of Cosmic! No one can be born with such ability! Just how can you have such power!? Answer me!" Lisa had a frenzy expression.

For a scientist, knowledge was everything, and in the current era, the one with knowledge can reach the top! Lisa had pursued the secrets of eternal life ever since she began her research career!

Now, someone with the greatest form of energy was in front of her. How could she control herself? The power Kiba possessed carried knowledge to all the secrets of the world! She was sure Kiba was the closest to eternal life than anyone else!

Even World Government has the only hypothesis on Cosmic Manipulation but no real result, at least none she was aware of.

"I already told you so many things," Kiba looked at her with a playful smile," Don't you think there should be some questions for you to think in the afterlife?"

Lisa tried to think of everything she knew about the powers in this world. She thought of the meteorites which gave rise to the evolution on Earth along with Paradox Dimension and other life forbidden zones.

She then tried to remember the information she has gained from her superiors back in the government. The information that was classified for a low-level officer like her.

Thanks to an affair with a Level VIII officer, she has heard of the possible origins of those meteorites. It was said that they were pieces of a superior world that have long ceased to exist.

The world known as Celestial Elysian Plane!

The same officer has explained to her about the possible Cosmic Manipulation ability, which the scientists have hypothesized, after studying a small shard containing Cosmic power.

World Government believed the shard was a small part of true Cosmic Spark! The true power source of the superior world!

When she thought of this, she sucked in a breath of cold air.

"You found... Cosmic Spark?!" Lisa asked, trying to control the emotions in her voice.

Kiba's eyes flashed with astonishment.

He didn't think much of her earlier words but this time it was different.

"Are you really a Rank III scientist?" Kiba narrowed his eyes.

Kiba's words were enough for Lisa to believe her guess was once again correct!

She started laughing crazily.

She has multiple expressions on her face consisting of disbelief, anger, greed, and envy!

"You are a selfish bastard!" Lisa shouted.

Kiba's expression turned cold, but he didn't attack.

"Selfish bastard? Funny hearing from someone like you," Kiba replied, his voice icy," You want to use me for your experiments against my will, and now I'm selfish?"

"You are for not sharing the Cosmic Spark with the world! The world would have changed if the World Government had the spark in their hands!

"All types of diseases could have been cured. Ordinary humans could have gained mutant abilities!"

Lisa frantically staed the possibilities.

"The terrorist nation who call themselves revolutionaries could have been wiped out! The entire world could be changed! Our planet could have peace and prosperity! But you kept the Cosmic Spark for yourself! Isn't this being selfish!?"

"You used those words earlier as well. Betterment of the world and its people!? Hahaha!"

Kiba started laughing as if he has heard the greatest joke in the world.

"It is not something to laugh about!" Lisa angrily rebuked him.

"You and the government sacrificed millions of people in genetic experiments," Kiba looked with scorn," But now you have got the nerves to call me selfish and preach me about the betterment of the world!?"

"Sacrifices are needed! The world has gained from those sacrifices!"

"Gained? Only people at the top have gained. Go to the slums of Delta City or any city. Tell me what have they gained?"

"I..."

"I was once a part of the slum, so let me tell you what they have gained. They have only gained scorns and abuses from rich and powerful like you!"

"The government---"

"Shut up! Now, let me tell you what they have lost. They have lost their right to live with dignity!

"People have to murder for crumbs! Men have to sell their daughters and wives for food! Children have to die due to cold and hunger! This is what they have gained! A life that's not worth living!"

Kiba's voice was filled with boundless rage.

He remembered the things he saw from the balcony at White Angel Corporation. Even if not for that, his memory was still fresh with the life he has lived before the mining expedition.

"This doesn't change the fact you are selfish! You could have helped the world!"

Lisa retorted.

"Selfish? I'm selfish! I risked my life to gain this power!"

Kiba clenched his fists.

"So why would I give this power to others?! Help the world by becoming a lab rat!? I am not a saint who will sacrifice myself for others... though there might be an exception..."

Kiba suddenly stopped in between.

It seemed as if he had a change of heart.

"What exception!?"

Lisa realised there was still a chance to live if she could manipulate Kiba.

Earlier, he was so adamant about not sacrificing, but now he stopped in between.

There was hope!

"I plan to sacrifice my body and my sleep for the Holy Mission!"

Kiba's lips curved up into a devilish smile.

Lisa coughed up blood. She couldn't believe he would bring up the 'holy mission' matter again.

She already knew he had scammed her into sex earlier when she tried to hypnotize him. He had called having sex with every beauty his Holy Mission!

Now, in the middle of such a heated discussion, how could he bring up a topic like Holy Mission?!

Is he insane?!

Or does he enjoy provoking others?!
