Pandemonium Of A Lazy Soul - Chapter 150 Episode 149- Power Ultra Plus!!!
However as one ranked up a section was filled up in certain form and colour. I concluded the colour and form must depend on the award user’s ability and the sections filled represent their rank.
Since Sophia’s was a rank 3 award user and due to her unique ability, it caused 3 sections of her strand to form a pink gaseous strand, while leaving the other 7 strands simply blank as usual. I concluded that when once reached rank 10 some mutation might happen to the gene in order to let them rank up to rank 11.
It was a good thing I had an award user to keep on extracting this blank strand and experiment with during these times.
I took a syringe and drew up the foam on top of the petri dish and placed the foam in a test tube mixing it with the pre-arranged chemicals.
I proceeded to place the test tube in a rack connected with plenty of tubes and wires linking all back to a certain large desktop.
Connected to the desktop also was a helmet.
I walked towards it and admired the beauty I had built using all my resources for the past 7 months.
I took the helmet carefully and wore it on my head and sat down.
Unlike what people thought an award was not formed completely randomly when awakened.
To a certain degree, each award was influenced during its awakening by the users desire, memories etc and to a specified level the emotions and desires of people around them at the time of awakening.
All of this factor was taken into consideration when a person developed their award.
I had found this while manipulating the award genes and experimenting with it.
Another thing I found out was that an ability granted initially by an award could be vastly superior to a similar award ability of the same rank should certain conditions, limitations and weakness are placed upon it. I called these limitation, conditions and weaknesses negatives. These negatives were usually permanent and could be only removed or changed by ranking up twice.
There was also something called positives as well. Positives gave the award ability more advantage at the cost of making the award very weak and generic. Similar to a negative it could only be removed by ranking up twice.
The more negative factors acting upon an award the more powerful an award is to the point it becomes unchallenged in the same rank. However, the opposite also applies, like more positive factors there are in ratio to negative factors, for an award, the weaker it is as an award ability.
However, I wasn’t most award user.
“Welcome to a new genesis!” I smiled towards Sophia who was looking at me in fear while trying to struggle as much as possible in her weakened state as I activated the activation process.
I ignored my pain receptors which were screaming in pain and concentrated on what I wanted as my award.
I imagined a safe dimension where I could stay in. This was the ability I wanted as an award.
I wanted this award separated from this reality and all its influences and attacks. This was a positive factor.
The negative factors were as follows: the separate dimension was only accessible to me, the dimension would not be able to interact with the world in any way possible other than opening a gate to enter or exit, the gate that is opened should only be used for going in and out of the dimension, and finally the dimension shouldn’t be used for defensive or attacking purpose but to simply walk away and rest from the world.
With this many negative factors, the safe dimension I could summon would be insanely powerful from the attack of all sorts of award ability.
One may ask what use would I gain from such an ability?
Obviously to satisfy my desire of lazing around and sleeping forever.
Screw politics and screw living.
I am just going to sleep for the next 24 years only coming out to buy food and to eat. Not to mention what I planned to do with it as I rank my award up.
As I felt the process of award forming slowly, I suddenly felt divine energy around me. I opened my eyes to see one annoying pigeon in front of me smirking.
“Go suck your …” Before I could finish time rewound back and I was standing in front of the helmet.
Not willing to accept my fate I tried again and just like before as I was about to succeed that sorry excuse of barbeque appeared before me smirking.
“I can do this all day!” She stated before time rewound back to when I was in front of the helmet.
“Fuck you bitch!” I screamed in anger.
Sophia stood still seeing me lose anger for the first time ever. She knew something must have gone wrong and increased her struggles.
I calmed my racing emotion and tried again. “Try a different ability loser. I don’t want you coming back to heaven this easily or even better not coming back at all.” She mocked me and send me back in time once more.
God, what the heck are you doing? Oh, right holiday, but at least put that pigeon face on a leash or something.
Ok! So that pigeon will keep sending me back in time until I chose a different ability.
Ok Back up ability- everyone forgets my existence.
Thinking up a few positives and negatives I tried again.
“Nope, this is still too easy for you.” I once more wound up back in time.
Backup ability number 2- Everyone considers me as insignificant.
“Nice try but no!”
Backup ability number 3- Spatial manipulation
“This is for calling me pigeon!”
Backup ability number 4
“This is for torturing me in your dreams!”
Backup ability number 5
“This is for…”
This kept on going until Backup ability number 1479. I had grown numb at this point getting all my backup abilities getting rejected by her.
I could not even complain to God at this point due to him being on holiday. My entire fate was on her hands and I could not choose an ability to simply laze around for 24 years of my life.
As it was near completion, I felt divine energy as usual around me and I sighed expecting for a rejection.
I looked at Juliet who was smirking at me with her gloating face.
However strangely this time she didn’t stop me. “Well, this is interesting. I will accept this. If you fail with this ability you are definitely granted a one-way ticket to hell no matter what. Hahaha!” She laughed like a pompous ass as she disappeared.
Welp! I am screwed!
She was right if I failed in surviving for 24 years with this ability I will be sent straight to hell.
But since she forced me to choose this ability, I had no desire to fail.
Backup ability number 1479 also known as Network Parasite.
Positives- Everyone no matter how strong a person is they will be affected by Network parasite, the stronger a person is the weaker the effect of Network Parasite, but an effect will always be present there. It is not possible to detect the effect of Network Parasite.
Negatives- I cannot accumulate to rank up. I have to train my body to acquire the strength of an award user.
Network Parasite base ability is to manipulate a person affected by network parasite subtly to do what I told them. It is like planting a suggestion in their head and they do it while thinking they are willingly doing it.
My negatives stated I could not accumulate to rank up, but it never stated anything about manipulating genes to rank up. All I have to do is acquire some principle particles.
As for the effect of Network parasite ability I had planned for each stage of it from Rank 1 to Rank 11. The reason why I would be screwed up if I didn’t survive for 24 years, is because the end result of my power requires countless people being murdered, manipulated, screwed in life with my abilities end result.

[Unknown Location- Few moments before Ez got his Network Parasite]
100’s of people dressed in priestly attire stood before a large black ominous gate. They were chanting as if they have been doing it for countless years. They seemed to be in some sort of massive, white sealed hall.
As they chanted a white source of energy left their body to reinforce the gate.
Just as Ez got his power the gate shook with force from the other side which worried all the gathered priests.
A tiny crack appeared on the ominous gate exposing everyone to what lay behind the gate. However, strangely there was no sound or anything one could see behind the gate.
“AHHHH!” All the priests inside the hall screamed in agony as they fell to their knees holding their ears. They were bleeding from all their orifice.
Suddenly every single priest that was there had their eyes turned blood red, while their veins started popping out to their surface
“CORRUPTION!” Someone screamed from outside the hall in terror seeing everyone inside the hall being corrupted.
However, before all the priest could fully become corrupted a being in all red appeared and crushed all the priest present there to a fine paste.
No one could see the being in red as a red radiance was emitted from the being.
“Why did a crack appear in the gateway to the dream world?” The being looked at the crack in the gate in worry. The being raised his hand and at the same time, all the bodies in the hall turned into particles of white light and went towards the crack in the ominous gate. The crack soon fixed itself.
Soon another wave of priests came in and stood by their positions and started doing the same thing as the now-dead priest.
The being in red soon vanished as the priests had started their chanting once more.
