Esper Harem in the Apocalypse

Chapter 802 Group Chat

CLACK~ CLACK~!

In a dimly lit room, a man was using a computer. It was a room with no windows or bulbs, but it was dimly lit by the light coming from the screen of the monitor.

The clicking sound came from the keyboard. It was loud yet calm, making it pleasant to hear.

The screen was black with green letters being written on it. Symbols appeared on the screen as the clicking sound continued, seemingly having a conversation.

Many people were in the group chat, but only three were talking. The initials of the username were U.A, G.E, and J.J.

U.A wrote in symbols - Pieru has died.

G.E asked- Did he run out of life force? That artifact was valuable. We shouldn't have wasted it on him.

J.J- According to the data, he was the most compatible with it.

G.E- Anywho, how did he die?

U.A- He was killed.

G.E- Killed? Did the scientists kill him during research?

J.J- I can see that happening.

G.E- Yeah, he was the most annoying subject. Always yelling and crying and talking about this and that.

J.J- Man, I wish we could take his vocal cord out and make him mute.

J.J- That wouldn't have made any difference, honestly. He would have made strange noises all day and night.

G.E- U.A, you still haven't answered my question. Who killed Pieru?

J.J- He couldn't have killed himself because the artifact wouldn't have let him.

U.A- He did the most stupidest thing possible and got himself killed.

G.E- Let me guess, he tried to challenge other successful test subjects of the supergene experiment?

U.A- Not quite right. He challenged someone he shouldn't have. Even we or our strongest champions wouldn't dare to do that.

J.J- Don't tell me… did he challenge the Lord?

U.A- You guessed it. J.J, you are as smart as ever.

G.E- I guessed it too. But didn't think Pieru would actually do that. But the outcome was expected.

J.J- Yeah, did he truly think he could defeat the Lord? Pieru was our weakest champion.

U.A- Now, now. I wouldn't say that. He was at least mid, if I may correct you two.

J.J- Come on, U.A. You are saying that because he was one of your test subjects, and you don't want us to downgrade him. But we have rated him as per the data we obtained from you.

G.E- Indeed. Even the Boss would agree to that.

U.A- That's where you are wrong. The Boss was the one who told me Pieru did an excellent job.

G.E- That has got to be a lie! Pieru was praised by the Boss?!

U.A- I am not lying. Feel free to ask him.

J.J- But why? Was Pieru able to harm the Lord?

U.A- No. He couldn't even scratch him.

G.E- Then why? Did we obtain more data on the Lord?

U.A- Close, G.E. We did gain the data, but it was something we already had.

G.E- Then what is it?

U.A- We confirmed something.

J.J And that is? We don't know who the Lord is. Even if we try, we can't know that. He doesn't appear in our footage when he is using the Lord's power.

U.A- That's exactly what we confirmed. We already knew the reason for that. No one is supposed to be able to comprehend the Lord unless he is not using his Lord's powers.

G.E- So what did we confirm, again?

U.A- We confirmed that only.

J.J- But we already knew that according to the 'Journal'.

U.A- Yes, but we didn't confirm it. We are scientists, J.J. We don't simply believe what's written unless it's proven.

G.E- That's right, J.J. We are talking about ancient civilization here. Some people think that they were uncivilized and dumb creatures. They don't know what we have and what we are today is because of them.

U.A- We are simply copying the patents and the equations provided in the journal.

J.J- So we confirmed that the Lord can't be seen, is that right?

U.A- We confirmed one more thing: the prophecy mentioned in the journal about the Lord.

G.E- Which one? There are like hundreds of prophecies, and we never get to confirm them if they are the truth.

U.A- The Apocalypse.

G.E- Do you mean the so-called zombie apocalypse? Yes, we were the ones behind that. T.A was the master subject. Our best test subject so far. We will find him one day and invite him to our cabal.

U.A- Nay, I am talking about the Apocalypse mentioned in the journal.

J.J- Do you mean… the second coming of the Apocalypse?

U.A- Indeed. As expected from J.J! I knew you would get it.

G.E- But that's not possible. The earth is stable, and it's nowhere near its end.

J.J- How did we confirm it through Pieru? Did the Lord talk about it?

U.A- You must not have paid attention to the chapter that mentioned the Apocalypse.

G.E- I have read it thoroughly, and I know the details. It is said that the Lord would reveal himself on the day of the Apocalypse.

U.A- It's the opposite interpretation, G.E.

G.E- That doesn't make any sense.

J.J- He means that the reason for the Apocalypse will be the Lord.

U.A- Yes, J.J. The Lord will be the one causing the Apocalypse.

G.E- Then, shouldn't we be finding a way to prevent it?

U.A- We don't have to worry in the least. Because once that happens, everyone would want to kill the Lord. He abandoned the human race, so we will abandon him too. We don't need him to protect us.

G.E- Yes, we are the one who controls everything in this world. We are the gods of this world.

J.J- That reminds me, I heard that one of the honorable members of our cabal— who was recently arrested after all of his crimes were leaked on the internet by someone— Fred Mores. He will have the court hearing soon.

U.A- The Boss has it under control. This time, once again, he will be proven innocent.

G.E- That's great to hear. We should be arranging a welcome party for him, then.

J.J- Don't get too excited, G.E. The Boss can change his mind anytime. The only reason F.M has gotten so far is that he has something that the Boss needs.

G.E- I am aware of that. F.M is an influencer with millions of followers. He can easily manipulate the youths.

J.J- And he can be replaced if the Boss wills so. So stop crediting him for his achievements. Everything he has is because of the Boss.

U.A- By the way, G.E, How is your test subject performing so far?

G.E- She is under control.

U.A- She better be.

KNOCK! KNOCK!

"Dad! I have brought your coffee," a muffled voice followed the knock.

G.E- Give me a minute. The test subject is here with my coffee.
