The Bodyguard System

Nazu nation, Abol city…

Inside an establishment that was located underground, there was a conference that was being held. The people being involved in this situation were the top level members of the government, together with several high-ranking mutants.

For the ranking of the mutants, it mainly depended on their abilities and how important their abilities were. Basically, the stronger one was, the higher the rank that they would receive within the category of the mutants.

At this moment, they were all looking at a screen that was displaying the current live situation within the nation. And at the top most corner of the screen, there was another pop-up video that was displaying a video of what was going on in the different parts of the world.

Their expressions said It all. They were totally confused, not understanding what was going on.

One of the leaders could not help but look at the mutants that were sitting on the other end of the table and ask, "Did you guys undergo something like this in order to be able to become mutants?"

"You already know what happened. We were part of an experiment, and we were those few that were lucky enough to be able to come out alive. Well, in any case, we were destined to die, and it was simply because of extreme luck that we were able to survive until now." One of the mutants responded.

The others around him nodded, as that was actually the case. Well, even the person who had asked already knew about it, but it was just that the situation was kind of troubling that he had no other choice but to ask.

Everyone went silent for a moment, as they tried to think about what was supposed to be done about the current situation. With mutants appearing all over the world, it was clear that the mutants would no longer just be based within this nation, but instead, they were going to spread worldwide.

At that time, the intimidation factor that this nation possessed would definitely vanish, implying that Nazu would finally start facing wars from the other nations.

And at this point, they all understood one thing. With power being given to different people randomly, some of those who had ever dreamed of leading a nation of their own would definitely try to overturn the government.

It would be a situation where strength was all that mattered, and rules no longer existed. And that was a chaotic situation that none of the people within the conference room really wanted.

For those from the government, they were happy to be in control of the nation, even if they were a subordinate to someone else. But still, at least, they had their own privileges, and advantages of holding the positions that they held.

But if it turned out that strength was all that mattered, then considering that they themselves were not mutants, they might end up losing their positions to the mutants.

As for the mutants that were present, initially, they felt that it was a privilege that they were mutants. But now, with many more mutants popping out all over the world, they would no longer feel unique.

That was especially so for those mutants that were quite weak. After all, in the videos, they could see some of the mutants that were stronger than themselves. And, that was just within this nation, Nazu.

If several maniacs got the ability of becoming mutants, and they suddenly decided to venture into this nation, then it would be extremely difficult for them to be able to maintain peace within this nation.

They had decided to join the government because they thought that this was the best way of repaying those two scientists that had given them another chance. It was impossible for them to be able to do anything for the two, considering that they had already passed away.

"Do you think this is what he was trying to imply?" The real leader of Nazu suddenly asked, garnering the attention of all the people around him.

Each of the people around looked at him with confused expressions on their faces, as they could not understand what he was trying to imply. Who was he talking about, and what was he talking about that person implying?

Looking at the expressions of the people around him, the leader simply let out a sigh. Then he said, "Several days ago, we found that there was a mutant within the central province that had not aligned himself with either the government, or the mercenary side. So, we sent a mutant in order to try and rope him in, but he refused.

Additionally, he simply told the person that we sent that we should be prepared for the next few days as changes were going to happen. It is just that we did not understand what was going on, until now.

Now that I see what is going on, it seems that this is what he was trying to imply by meaning that changes were going to happen in the next few days. It seems that he was implying that changes were not going to happen within just our nation, but instead, in the entire world."

The mutants around were all shocked. After all, they had not heard about this. Well, that was to be expected, considering that after the leader had received the response from Jaden, he did not really share that much with others.

At that time, he simply thought that perhaps Jaden was simply trying to tell them something like that in order to make them focus on other things. But in the end, he had decided that he was going to pay attention to Jaden, to make sure that if that guy actually used his abilities anytime soon, he would be dealt with.

As a leader of the nation, it was impossible for him to allow any instabilities within the nation. Well, that was excluding the Raven mercenary group. Those guys could not be dealt with, at least at that time.

"You are trying to imply that there is actually someone who already knew about this? Why were we not informed?"

"That's right. That is something very important. Why did you keep it to yourself? If you had told us in advance, at least we would have prepared ourselves for this."

"Is he the one that caused the rain to start? He definitely has a way of preventing it. We have to find him, so that he can stop the rain. Otherwise, chaos are going to erupt all over the world."
Your adventure continues at empire

Immediately, the entire group began speaking, each and every one of them giving out their own views. Others blamed the leader, while others thought of the solution.

The old man simply looked at the group and asked, "What are you saying? It is not as if I had told you, you would have believed it anyway. Tell me, before today, who would have believed that something like this was going to happen?"

Immediately after that question was raised, the people around finally stopped speaking. They understood, if they had actually been informed in advance about what was happening right now, they would definitely not have believed it.

With those two scientists out of the picture, it was extremely difficult if not outrightly impossible for there to be the creation of mutants of the same level as themselves.

When he saw that everyone was silent, the leader let out yet another helpless sigh. Then he said, "I wanted to ask you something. Does anyone of you know about those two scientists? According to the information that was recorded in hard copy, it is clear that those two had a son.

But all the soft copy information that we possess imply that they did not have any son, and they were just ordinary scientists. If not for the fact that we had interacted with them, it would have been impossible for us to be able to know that those two scientists were actually the ones that had created so many mutants."

His words immediately shocked the people around him. What were they hearing? The two scientists had a son? Additionally, the soft copy information was completely different from the hard copy?

Could it be that there was someone who had hacked into the system, and managed to change the data? That was a possibility, but that was only something that could be done by a mutant with great strength.

As long as they had the ability to access the information, they could easily change it. Maybe that was the reason why the mutants did not realize it.

"So, is there any information about their son?" One of the mutants could not help but ask.

"All the information that is currently in hard copy implies that they had a son, and he was in a small city within the southern province called Faru city.

But considering that this is the technological era, why would people bother to write so many things. So, there is no that much detail other than the location of where they had been living, but no any other details are available."

"That is a pity that the information about that son of theirs is not there. But currently, we can say that there is a good chance that the current phenomena is related to those two late scientists.

We can start by using the leads that we have, and try to find that son of theirs. Maybe we can find something from him, and maybe can find a solution or the reason why the current phenomena is happening." The strongest mutant stated.
