The first thing Han opened his eyes to was a bright, white room. He was standing in the middle of a room but everything around him was white. The room stretched for miles in every direction and Han didn’t even know where the walls ended. Han wondered if this was so sort of test like the one he faced on floor fifty where he had to choose a new job. But this doesn’t seem like it’s a test. Han would have seen an interface for making a new choice if this was a test and nothing had happened since he ca here.
But it was not another test. It didn’t even take ten seconds before the white space suddenly distorted and everything around it disappeared and reford into new scenery. Han heard the sound of seagulls in the distance and the raging, clear-blue, water in front of him painted a beautiful picture. Han was now standing on a Sandy beach. He blinked down at the ground as he saw that he was barefoot! He wiggled his toes and he saw that the sand was real. He could feel it and it felt just like real sand. What happened!? Even his clothes changed! Han was now wearing loose black trousers and a baggy white shirt that would be perfect for going to the beach! He felt like he had been here before.
“Why does this place look so familiar?”
“It’s because you rember it,”
Han turned around sharply once a voice spoke from behind him. He didn’t sense anyone around and so was shocked when he saw a man sitting on a reclining chair under an umbrella. The man had his legs crossed and there was a coconut in his hand that he was drinking with a grin! How did this man even get there? I know he wasn’t here before! I scanned this entire place once I arrived here and there was no one here
The man waved Han over as if he was so sort of drug dealer calling his custor to co and buy drugs and Ha took a step back instead. He didn’t need to get any closer to know that this man was dangerous. Han didn’t even know how the man got there, but Han could feel a lot of power coming from the man! It was like looking at the sun! Is this the test? Do I have to sohow fight this person? I might win, but it won’t be an easy fight at all. He will definitely take an arm from before I can kill him.
He doesn’t even know who this man was, but Han can tell that this is not the sort of person he can be careless around. Han imdiately activated [Assimilation]! Han needed to know how strong this man was!
[Error! Error! Error! Error!]
The fuck? Han’s eyes were wide as he stared at the notification! What the hell does the system an by error!? Does it an that I can’t see this man’s level? Or he doesn’t even have a system? I know that I leveled up all my skills a lot throughout that one month when I was fighting Esteroth! How is it possible that this man is strong enough for not to see his level!?
“Hey, co on already! You shouldn’t just stand there like that! I’m not going to attack you, so you don’t need to be so tense around . You’re making look like a bad guy here! Have a coconut, and take a seat. Relax. I don’t think I’ve tasted things like this before. It’s amazing,”
The man finally spoke again and with the way he was smiling, it was obvious that he knew what Han just tried to do! He knew that Han tried to use Assimilation on him and he knew that it failed! Han looked around once more and then he finally decided to move to the chair. Wait… Chair? What is a chair doing there! Han knows that there was only one chair there before! It was like imdiately he thought about moving to seat down, another chair appeared out of nowhere! It was just there!
The man waved Han over again and then Han moved and sat down. The man didn’t look hostile and Han knew that he already had all his defenses set up. Even if the man tried to attack now, I can still defend myself and attack him back! I just need to hear what this is all about. This isn’t what I expected to happen when I got to a new floor. It’s too calm.
The man had red hair that was tied into a ponytail and yellow eyes that made him look like a snake. His skin was ivory white, like bone, and he didn’t look normal in any way. But Han already saw too many races and a lot of different people in the temple, so things like these don’t really phase him anymore!
“Here, have a coconut,”
A coconut imdiately appeared in Han’s hand and Han blinked down at it in shock! How is this man doing that!? It doesn’t even make any sense! Is it a skill!? Han didn’t know what to think about this! Is this so sort of skill that could freely alter reality! No, Han didn’t believe this was a skill because it didn’t work like one! Han has seen skills that can make things appear and disappear like Doreas dinsion traveling skill, but he has never seen one that can rewrite the current state of things!
Before the man said ‘Have a coconut’, Han was not holding a coconut at all and his hands were closed. But then once the man spoke for him to have a coconut, Han imdiately found his hand holding a coconut with a straw in it and he was already about to put it into his mouth before he stopped himself! He doesn’t even rember the coconut coming into existence! He doesn’t even rember opening his hand or grabbing the coconut! Who is this guy?
“Don’t be like that. You’re too quiet. I’m not a bad guy, I promise. I’m just soone that always wanted to et you. I’m a big fan, I love all the turmoil you’ve been causing down on the lower floors!. I an, your fight on floor fifty. Muah!! Exquisite! I don’t think I’ve seen anyone burn a dragon with dragon’s breath before and you made it look like an art form! And that fight with Troy just blew out of the water! That was the first ti I allowed you to notice because you were just too impressive! Beautiful! The carnage you caused was simply beautiful!”
Han narrowed his eyes at the man as he realized that this man was one of the beings that Han felt had been watching him. Han always knew that strong people were watching him, so this man is one of them? But how is he able to able to watch ? Is the man also a Celestial? Han finally spoke.
“You’ve been watching . I thought only celestials could do that?”
The man looked scandalized as he looked at Han! Like it was an insult to call him a re celestial!
“How dare you! I will never be one of those idiots. Staying up in their big bad Celestial plane and trying to look down on everyone else! They have no idea how fun it is to be among you mortals! They have no taste for adventure and excitent! But I do! I’ve seen all of it, Han Luo! Everything! From the very beginning, I was there. From your fights on earth when you went up against REACH, to your fights against the chosen that ca to recruit you. I’ve even seen how you managed to take all the kings and put them under you! You can say I’m your biggest fan, but that would be a lie. There is soone else that takes that title,”
Han took a drink of the coconut and he frowned suspiciously. It was amazing! How the hell does this bastard know what a coconut tastes like? He ford this coconut with his skill so he has to first know what it tastes like to form it. Don’t tell that he really went to earth before? Han wondered what sort of being this man was. The man has been speaking for so long but he still hasn’t said a single thing about his power or even who he was. Throughout this talk, they’ve only spoken about Han! Han wanted to know more.
“Who are you?”
“Mmh! I am the watcher,”
The man took a sip of his coconut before answering Han and Han blinked as he repeated the na back. The watcher? The man nodded like he was educating a young child.
“Yes, the watcher. The seer. The one above all. Call whatever you want. But I am the watcher. If you want to know where I am from then that is a different story altogether. I co from the center of the cosmos. All of the people up are like , we are beings that are too great to be held back by the physical laws of nature and we possess power that can rewrite, destroy and create reality at our whim. We find our entertainnt in mundane things, but it is not our place to exist outside of a safe space that can contain our power. We could destroy a universe accidentally if we’re not careful. In fact, I just killed a galaxy this morning, but that wasn’t an accident. It was because one of the planets inside of it stopped a tv show that I really liked. Stupid people, the lot of them,”
Han swallowed nervously. Did this fucker just say that he could rewrite, destroy and create realities? And what the fuck does he an he destroyed a galaxy because of a tv show!? He killed an entire cluster of solar systems because one planet in one of those solar systems canceled a tv show!? What the fuck!?
But with the sort of power Han was feeling from the man, he didn’t think sothing like that was possible. Yes, Han could destroy a galaxy if he wanted, but it wouldn’t be so easy to destroy an entire universe of galaxies. The watcher wasn’t as strong as Han, so how can he do sothing like that? Isn’t this his full power?
