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 113 - Frightening Self-Delusion

Point-of-View: Neo Cronje

———————————————————————————

What a mess...I was, admittedly, a bit nervous when the higher ups initially assigned Kechik to this mission, but I honestly never thought it'd end up this badly. Aurora came absurdly close to killing him, and based on what Liling and Inoka told me, he was definitely asking for it.

And Inoka did a really, really half-assed job of healing him too, he did as he said he would and healed all of Kechik's potentially fatal injuries, but absolutely nothing beyond that.

I asked Liling to heal him a bit more, and even she, of all people, was apprehensive about it. That's really rare, even if she dislikes someone, she's usually the type who'd smile and put up with it anyway.

Kechik won't have any lasting detrimental effects, but his face is bound to be heavily scarred by the time he recovers. And his teeth are in pretty bad shape too, they can be reattached using Healing, but the broken bits can't be repaired with that technique.
