Enforcers - Chapter 176
An Unknown Age…
A young man with jet black hair slicked back, and simple black eyes was seated in front of a large computer. He wore a long white lab coat and had a large frown on his face as he tapped away at a computer.
He had been in the lab for nearly a month now studying something strange. Recently the world known as Earth had found a strange device that had simply fallen from the sky.
The computer seemed to spark and slowly began to boot up.

It played the message again and again.
Simply repeating it.

The computer simply didn’t say anything else. It was just this message. Said again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again…
It said it as if this message was its Mantra. As if saying it enough times something would happen.

But nothing happened.
Nothing ever happened.
The man let out a sigh as he slowly looked up. He stared at a window that was in front. Behind the window inside of a large metal room something could be seen.
It looked like a large golden egg. It was covered in various runes and seemed to pulse up and down getting brighter and brighter with every second that the supposedly pointless message played. The runes formed various words and lines and symbols over and over. And occasionally the egg seemed to change colors for some weird reason that he couldn’t figure out.
Every now and then, the lines and symbols would line up in the exact perfect way to spell out a single word.
‘Mantra’
…
…
…
Mantra was a word or sound repeated to aid concentration in meditation. Typically used in a few religions. So what was it trying to concentrate on?
“It confuses you doesn’t it…”
The man’s eyes widened as he heard a voice. It seemed to come from all directions around him. Up, down, left, right. In front of him, and from behind. Even horizontally and vertically.
The man looked around but saw nothing. “Who… Who said…” He let out a small laugh as he scratched at his ear nervously. “I must be hearing things. Maybe Rin was right. Maybe I should take a break. Staying in the lab all day isn’t helping. Maybe I should go out and see the sun.”
“Sun? Ahh, the sky isn’t blocked yet?”
“What!” The man looked around now on full alert. He definitely didn’t imagine it a second time. “Who’s there!” He called out.
“I am.” A voice said bouncing around the room.
“I am.”
“I am.”
“I am.”
The voice continued to bounce around the room and repeated itself again and again. It sounded like a child.
No.
Not a child.
It sounded like something pretending to be a child.
Like it spoke in a way that a child would but something was off. It was like it spoke how it thought a child should act.
“You must be Orion.” The voice said again.
“Orion.”
“Orion.”
“Orion.”
“H… How do you know my name?” The man said slowly.
“Of course I would know the name of God.”
“God.”
“God.”
“God.”
“G… God?” Orion said quietly. “What? I’m not…” His eyes began to feel heavy as his gaxe slowly turned to the egg. It was glowing a bright white.
‘Mantra’
…
…
…
The eggs glowing for brighter.
“Of course not yet.”
“Yet.”
“Yet.”
“Yet.”
“Do you know why?”
“Why?”
“Why?”
“Why?”
Orion spoke shocking himself. “Because I haven’t become God yet.” He said it as a fact. Not even a question. It confused him.
“Very Good!”
“Good.”
“Good.”
“Good.”
The egg glowed a slight pink color now.
“I was confused when I ended up in this world. World three. I was originally in world four you see. I do not belong here. Not yet.”
“Yet.”
“Yet.”
“Yet.”
“World?” Orion asked snapping out of whatever trance he was in for a moment. “Wait…” He turned and began to search through his drawers. He pulled out a small metal device that seemed to hum. He also pulled out a single sheet of paper and drew a line on it. “I understand this now.” He said. He drew a second line above the first line. “The line here. It’s four. We are three. The third world. With every line down things get strange. Like the use of Mantra and Supernatural powers that we call Attributes. Right?”
“I suppose.”
“Suppose.”
“Suppose.”
“Suppose.”
The egg seemed to hum once more as the man walked towards it. Orion’s body walked through the wall as if it wasn’t there allowing him to step into the room where the egg was. He slowly reached out placing his hand on it.
“What did you mean earlier when you called me God?” He asked slowly. “What did you mean about the sun? How did you fall from another world into ours? What are you?”
The egg hummed one more time as the glowing slowly went out. There was a quiet cracking sound as the egg began to crack slowly opening up.
“Let.”
The cracking sound got louder.
“Me.”
The cracks on the egg grew larger and larger.
“Show.”
A hand seemed to reach out of the hand grasping at the world above.
“You…”
Over at the computer, it lit up and flashed its message one more time…

‘Boom!’
In a bright flash of white light the Mantra was unleashed…
