The Fat God System

Chapter 9: Elite



A few hours after Hugh got out of the crater, 6 figures came down the hole. One in particular created a big crater as he landed on his feet. He had a big stature; a muscular body that threatened everybody. He wore black sunglasses as he inhaled a big breath.

"Ahh.....the sweet smell of conflict."

It was Commander SquareJaw. He smiled. Taking in the chaos that surrounded the crater, his heart leaped in joy. Without turning his head, he spoke to one of the people he landed with.

"What do you think Auberron?"

A long golden-haired human male came up next to SquareJaw and looked down on the ground, specifically at the center of the crater. He had a sharp eye with double eyelids. His nose and jaw were sharp; a signal of perfection in many people's eyes. He wore a gold and black robe that flowed over his uniform with intricate curves stitched on the end.

"It's indeed a black hole."

SquareJaw finally looked at Auberron. He crossed his arms and stared at him, making sure to lower his glasses. He just stayed silent and waited.

With the silence, Auberron closed his eyes and spread his hands out. He inhaled. The ground underneath him started to tremble as small rocks started to float around him. A lump in the ground suddenly grew and molded into a human shape. This human lump of soil didn't have any facial features nor any distinctive features. It just had a basic human shape.

"When are we gonna fight this thing?"

From their back, Auberron and SquareJaw heard a low pitched grating sound. They didn't have to look back to know who spoke to them. He emerged from the shadows. This new guy who had the same uniform as them looked like he was angry. They knew him well enough to know that he wasn't angry but that was just his resting face.

"Don't be reckless Lambo."

Auberron, still with his eyes closed, replied to Auberron with a stern and serious voice. Even though Lambo spoke in a joking manner, Auberron made sure to keep his member in check.

Lambo wore a sleeveless black and white uniform. The sleeves were forcefully torn off, making loose thread flow with the air. His shirt underneath was unbuttoned with just one button. His eyes were big and round that contrasted his sharp and inclined eyebrows.

"Why? I didn't think that you, who's just a step away from the 2nd advancement, would be afraid."

Before Auberron could even answer, another voice introduced itself from the shadows.

"I don't think Aub's afraid. He already dealt with minor blackholes before; remember back in Karuta?"

This was a feminine voice from a female human. She wore the same black uniform that fit the curves in all the right places. Her skirt went down to just below her knees with black stockings covering her long legs. She had long blue hair that curved at the end. Bangs covered her slim eyebrows atop her clear blue eyes. She was beautiful.

"Yeah, are you saying that Aub isn't strong?"

Another voice came with the young woman. This one was from a human male with a soft, quivering voice. A shy guy came out of the shadows with his hands behind his back. This guy had a bowl cut that covered all if not most of his eyes. His uniform was plain black and white, the mandatory clothes for a CDA elite troop squad.

"What? I never said that. Don't spout nonsense Balen. Also, you weren't in Karuta, Anki."

The shy guy named Balen smiled imperceptibly and walked near to Aub who was concentrating on the human lump of soil.

"Aub, Lambo said that you couldn't even take on a minor blackhole. I think he wants to challenge you again."

"What? Don't exaggerate. Although, I wouldn't mind taking a swing at Aub again."

Lambo glared at Balen. Balen just smiled at Lambo. This was a normal occurrence for them and was just casual banter. Balen would tease and joke on Lambo while Lambo just ignored or quipped back but it never went physical. In-house fighting for no reason would get them in trouble with the commander, except if you were Auberron, the golden child.

"What do you mean I wasn't there? I was with there with you guys in spirit, cheering you on."

The woman named Anki pouted her cheeks, making them blush with a reddish tint. She wasn't on the Karuta mission because her Desire wasn't suited for the problem. So instead, she got a manicure and a massage in the Union Massage planet, the best place in the galaxy to relax.

"Anki, I think what Lambo was trying to tell you was that he was jealous of you lazing off and wasting CDA mandated money."

Balen smelled opportunity in the air and started a fire. He immediately turned to Anki and tried to rattle a fight from them. It worked.

"That was my own money, Lambo. What about you? You didn't mind using our money to buy a membership from planet fitness. We have our own gym."

"That's a business expense. I need to keep up my shape."

"Me too. I need to look pretty all the time."

Aub's vein in the side of his forehead pulsated in anger. Without opening his eyes, he spoke calmly.

"Stop slacking off; we have work to do. Lambo, don't get so worked up; go check the north side of the crater for clues. Anki, I don't care what you do on your own time but right now we have a job to do; go to the west. Balen stop stirring up trouble and travel eastwards; we already have a big enough troublemaker on our team. Speaking of the devil, where's Dempsy?"

Somewhere in the forest, a mutated armadillo with a larger size than the one Hugh fought, was walking through a forest. It was strolling along, with no knowledge that a human male was stalking it. This guy had spiky white hair and a black and white uniform, the same pattern as the one the CDA elite troop squad wore. There was a big difference; this uniform had inverted colors. Those that were supposed to be colored black was instead colored white and vice versa.

He had a big smile on his face as he stalked this little creature in his eyes. This was his plaything. He suddenly saw a sudden movement from somewhere and his grin became bigger. Out of the shadows, a velociraptor twice the size of the armadillo stomped its foot on the armadillo's shell. A loud crunch was heard as the armadillo died instantly.

The guy in the bushes came out and fought the large velociraptor. The fight only lasted for thirty seconds with the guy winning with not a scratch on his clothes.

———————

Hugh came back tired and beleaguered from the fight that almost cost him his life. He thought about the mysterious events that happened after he passed out but he couldn't remember anything. It was all in the past. He passed out, face-first in his bed until the next morning.

He woke up feeling refreshed as ever. The sun was bright and shiny as it symbolized a new day for him. This was the day he would go to his new school. The support department in the Wolrath academy will allow him to have a career without a Desire.

A notification popped up in his head.

DAILY MISSIONS:

Eat 5 square meters of glass (0/5)

Eat 10 types of cloth (0/10)

Eat 30,000 kcal (0/30,000)

A new daily mission for him came to his mind. He had to eat new types of materials for the day. Since the reward from last time saved him from ultimate death, he was sure to do this mission to the end.

He got up and went to his closet and looked at his clothes. Most of them were specifically made for him because most companies don't mass manufacture that kind of size. He took 10 different extra clothes that he didn't wear for the last month or so as fuel for his daily mission. He took a bite.

The cloth was like gum and sticky rice. It was chewy but when paired with his saliva, it brought out a new and exciting flavor he had never tasted before. He took out a string of cloth from his mouth and stretched it out like gum and swallowed it.

It didn't take long for him to eat the 10 different clothes he prepared. It wasn't enough. His greed led him to eat every shirt and pants he had in his closet. He ate the mattress cover, the pillow cover, the window cover, and he ate his uniform. He only regained his control when he got a notification in his head.

He was thankful he was wearing his last uniform or else he would have gone to school in casual clothes. On to his next agenda, the glass. He eyed the windows as he went near it but before he could, he heard a blaring sound. It was the CDA. Neurons blazed in his head as alarms of danger rang in his mind. Did he get found out? The sound got louder and louder until it stopped, then he heard a knock on his door.
