Evolution to GOD

Chapter 99: Realization?

Just as I came out of the pub, the sight of a busy city greeted me. Floating cars, busy streets, many people enjoying their time with their loved ones.

But when I saw that, a little sourness rose in my heart. All of my life, even though I had the company of beauties, I didn’t have anyone who would be called his loved ones. Many of them were with me because of the money I had.

But when I came to this world, I had nothing. But I found many people who were there for me when I needed them the most. For the first time in my life, I felt a sense of belonging. 

I felt that there are people who would care for me, there are those who could do anything for me and I also felt the same. If any of my loved ones needed me. I could do anything, even if I had to risk my life.

But somehow, I felt wrong; I was wrong about everything. I can’t trust everybody who comes into my life. Even though I should give the chance to Isabella. But somehow my heart felt bitterness. Bitter when I saw her concerned face, but it was not for me but for the other person.

As I inhaled the cold air, a sudden voice attracted my attention. It was Tanya who came out with that man and Isabella.

But when I saw that man, again a sudden surge of anger welled up in my heart.

“Why the fuck is he here?” I raised my voice and asked.

My eyes were fixed on that man. I could see that he was also getting angrier when he saw me.

“Who do you think you are, damned monkey?” He also shouted.

“Silence” Suddenly I heard Tanya’s voice, who was walking in my direction. Her face was cold, as she looked angrier.

But my gaze drew towards Isabella. She was looking down as if she didn’t dare to look into my eyes.

A feeling of betrayal rose in my heart. Why is she not daring to look into my eyes?

Hah, life is strange. When Diana wanted to get close to me, I avoided her many times, but she eventually cleared the misunderstandings. But now, why is she not coming to clear the misunderstanding?

Anyway, I will not think about anything. Let nature take its course.

As I saw that Tanya was standing in front of me, her face was still cold, but it didn’t have the angry expression as before.

“Can we go now?” I asked her. I really didn’t want to go back. Somehow, I knew that Tanya wanted me to clear the understandings with that man. Since he was also the power user and was with Isabella, there’s a chance that he was also in Forces.

And as expected, Tanya said, “I don’t know what happened between you two but he is also from the forces and you two may work together in the future, so keep all the grudges away otherwise it can create problems in the future.”

“I didn’t start creating problems for anyone. Ask him who thinks I am a disgusting creature,” I said, and I looked at Tanya.

Tanya burrows furrowed, but she said, “Whatever, but don’t think about any of this in the future. And you have to remember that you cannot use your powers in the civilian area. “

I nodded and said, “Whatever, anyway, I don’t want to see some faces. Can we go now?”

Tanya raised her eyebrows, but she nodded. I even noticed that Isabella was dumbfounded when I said that.

What was she thinking? Did she think that I will again wait for her to explain anything? Even though I like beauties, I didn’t force anyone to be with me.

I sat in the car, as Tanya started it, and we made our way towards the Facility.

My attention was drawn towards the city, people enjoying their happiness. But anyway, I can’t keep on thinking about this. There’s much life ahead of me and there are many people who care for me.

“What are you thinking?” Suddenly I heard Tanya’s voice.

I looked in her direction and saw that she was looking at me. But she didn’t have her usual playful smile.

I shook my head, “Nothing,”

“Hmmm, don’t think too much. His name was Austin, and he was also just like you,”

“Me? He also came from the jungle?” I mocked and asked.

But she didn’t get angry as she said, “No, he is also in the forces and was selected as the potential candidate for the meet. I know that since you came to the city, you haven’t dealt with many people. I have read your profile. The moment you came to the city after your evolution, you came to the city, but you spent little time in the facility for training as you were immediately sent to the Jungle for survival. So you didn’t have much time to interact with the people in this world,”

I looked at her as my attention was drawn towards her. She seems to be saying something logical and true. Since I came to the city, I haven’t spent much of my time in the city rather, training or survival.

Even though I came from the earth, where I interacted with many people, this world is different. The thinking of people is different. I can’t expect the same type of people everywhere. 

Here in this world, if you have power, no one would dare to look straight at you. And if one is weak, no one would respect you.

When people have power, they will be arrogant. Even I became somewhat arrogant when I got these powers. Maybe this would be the right wake-up call for me.

Even though I am powerful, I have to control myself. I should not flaunt my power everywhere. And today I totally lost my control. If that man was a non-power user, he would have died by my hands.

A sign escaped from my lips as I thought of all these things. I looked at Tanya, even though she said little, but her words woke me up.

“Thank you,” I said to her. 

“Why? I did nothing” She was surprised. She may not know, but I am very grateful to her.

I shook my head as I gazed out of the window. Whatever it may be, today was the wake-up call for me. Don’t be arrogant for the time being. First, I have to explore this world, understand this world.

From time to time, I felt that Tanya was looking at me, but she said nothing.

As we reached the facility, she dropped me in front of my place. While leaving, she reminded me about the training, which would start tomorrow, and she left after saying that.

I was so engrossed in my thoughts that I didn’t even realize that it was almost dark. 

I sighed and headed towards my home. After scanning my card, the door was opened. After switching on the light, I quickly removed my clothes and went inside the bathroom to take a shower.

After standing under the cold water for almost an hour, my mind cleared up, as a new resolve rose within me.

A resolve to control myself, control of not believing everyone, the resolve of not being hot-headed and arrogant all the time.

My mind felt refreshed and just as I came out of the bathroom. Eve’s voice resounded within me.

“Alan?” 

I was surprised when she called me.

“Eve, what happened to you?” I asked her hurriedly. I was really worried about her.

“Thanks to you, I also evolved.” Her voice rang in my ears.

What? She’s evolved? It was the first time I heard something about it. She didn’t tell me anything about her evolution. And now she is not behaving like an emotionless system, but her voice sounded like a normal girl who was very happy.

Yes, her voice sounded happy. This was the first time I felt the happiness in her voice.

“Evolve?” I asked her.

“Yes, you remember a bright light hovering in mid-air. It suddenly started glowing brightly and some strange power emerged from it. And it slowly started affecting me. I don’t know, but my system was shut down. But I regained my senses. For the first time, I felt pain. It was then that I called you. But again I fell unconscious.”

She stopped for a moment and then said,

“And when I woke up again, I felt the emotions inside me. It was the first time I felt happiness. The happiness of feeling the emotions.”

Her words surprised me, and what was that power that made her feel the emotions? Who and what was I? Is Lucia behind those powers, or was it my own power that made Eve like a human?

A lot of questions started popping into my mind, but suddenly a headache struck me. A painful sensation swept through my head as I fell to the ground.

Darkness enveloped me, and when I regained consciousness, I was in a different world.
