Grandpa Universe In Multiverse

Chapter 548: Grandma on move

Before Hughes even told him anything. He requested.

"I need to see the Fuhrer as fast as possible. I found out what the infiltrators want to do. All the riots and violence happening in the various parts of the Amestris has been for a reason.

"The near-perfect circular shape of Amestris is not just natural. There is a reason behind it. They are possibly trying to make a countrywide transmutation circle." Hughes said at length.

"Hmm, who attacked you then?" Alexander asked, bringing the topic back to what he initially asked.

"I don't know their names but one of them was a woman with long claw-like nails and the other could shapeshift to anyone. It killed me while looking like my wife." Hughes tightened his fist when he remembered the feeling of helplessly looking at his wife's face.

"Let me guess, the woman had a cross injury mark on her face?" Alexander asked.

"H-how did you know?" Hughes inquired.

"Well, when I was on my way to talk to Certa's president, I was attacked by her and her companion. I killed the companion but she ran away. All of them are named after 7 deadly sins. The one I killed was Gluttony, the woman was Lust and the one who killed you is someone I don't know. Their leader is most likely called Father." Alexander revealed the information.

Hughes breathed fastly, "Then we must inform the central command."

"Hold your horses, Lieutenant Colonel. Just think for a minute. Why is it that I was attacked by these people when I was about to strike peace with Creta? They sent me there in hopes of fighting a war. Why is it that you were caught and attacked at the exact time you uncovered the plot? How did they find out about these things at the perfect timing?

"Doesn't this mean that these people are watching everything and have probably infiltrated the top layer of Amestris? Why do you think Fuhrer tried to stop you and Elric brothers all from telling others about these people?

"I'll be honest, I have my doubts that Fuhrer is one of them. I tried to conduct his background check but didn't find anything. He seems to appear magically and quickly reach the highest office in the country.

"Tell me, if King Bradley was really a peaceful man. Would all these killings have happened? He was always at the forefront of these conflicts. I met him yesterday at my promotion ceremony. I clearly saw his contempt for me when I told him I killed one of the attackers.

"He will now most likely try to kill me or frame me as I have now grown too powerful militarily. His position of Fuhrer is in danger now." Alexander revealed.

Hughes' eyes widened. "How can this be... He is the Fuhrer..."

"Do you know the Lost city of Xerxes? Something happened there suddenly which caused its devastation.

"I found giant canals around it, in the shape of a transmutation circle. Nevertheless, I also found parts of the ruins in the stomach of Gluttony. He had the ability to eat things and send them to another dimension."

"Then, all the people in Xerxes... were used to make the philosopher's stone. They want to sacrifice the whole Amestris..." Hughes breathed heavily as he realized everything.

"Yes, I guessed that too. So, we cannot trust anyone. Especially the Fuhrer. You can decide whether to trust me or not later, but before that, we should get you stronger. You are a liability when it comes to fighting strong opponents." Alexander said and led him to his underground lab.

"Woah, this place is huge. How did you make all of this? Where are we?" Hughes asked.

"You are not in your world. You are in a different dimension, owned and ruled by me. Come, eat this. This will give you Wind and Electricity elemental powers." Alexander handed him a fruit. This was a newer invention of Alfred after he had spent a long time researching the Chakra Fruit. These new fruits were less powerful and were easy to digest. But, they can give any chosen power to the eater. These fruits can be made to give any elemental power.

Alexander gave Hughes these two because of his choice of weapon. He can use the wind to accelerate his blade projectiles at speed enough to destroy buildings. He can also charge them with electricity to give a shock.

"Hmm, this fruit is tasty." He chewed it.

"Yeah, we added some flavors to them. Otherwise, they only came in peach flavor. Well, how do you feel?" Alexander asked him.

"Oh, I feel like hugging my wife and daughter," he replied.

"You feel that most of the time. I asked how your body feels." Alexander repeated.

"That, well, I feel a bit weird. Like I ate something bad. I can feel something in my stomach." Hughes replied.

Alexander picked a stone from the side and threw it at Hughes. Instinctively he tried to cover his head but suddenly a gust of wind came out of his palm, throwing the stone back.

"WOAH! This was so awesome." He muttered to himself and looked at his hands.

"That is one of your two powers. The other is electricity. You can create current from your hands. Try to throw your knife by pushing it with the wind." Alexander instructed him.

He did as asked.

*BAM*

With a big noise, his knife blasted through the thick trunk. It was precise and deadly.

Hughes was excited now.

"That was just one of the things you could do with your wind ability. If you can control it better, you can even fly. Now try to do the same thing but this time add current in your knife." Alexander instructed him.

Hughes cheerfully charged the knife and threw it at the same tree.

*BOOM*

This time, the tree's trunk was blown to smithereens.

Hughes was shocked. "This... this is even better than Mustang's ability. I will enjoy making him feel jealous."

"Good, now, let's go and see your funeral," Alexander replied.

"WHAT? My funeral? But I'm here." He confusedly asked.

"I had left behind a fake body of yours. You will not be revealing that you are alive. Not unless we find out their whole plot. If they realized how strong I am, they will go into hiding. We will catch them in action." Alexander replied.

"But, what will we be doing till then?" Hughes asked.

"Haha, well, I will be becoming the next Fuhrer soon. You will be supporting me in the intel gathering on the lower level. You are good at that, aren't you?" Alexander said.

Hughes was taken aback but he nodded, "I can do that."

Alexander waved his hand at the destroyed tree and it returned to how it was before.

"Oli, go out and catch Ajax. He's been running from me. He fought someone and got injured and thinks I will punish him." Alexander asked his wife.

"WHAT? Why didn't you tell me before? What has Leo been doing? I will go and find him quickly. He must learn his lesson." Olivia got serious and put down her apron.

"Azula, let's go and catch him." She took the person nearest to her. Azula was also good at tracking people. Azula had been responsible for training martial arts to various people in the Phixheim. However, she was still focused on wooing Saitama, the hard-boiled.

[A/N: Merry Christmas, my dear readers. I hope this holiday season brings some joy to your life. 2020 has been pretty bad for the most part. Corona-chan's been a bad b*tch and refuses to die.

I hope I was able to bring some amusement to your daily life with what I write. Thank you for reading this and constantly voting for my book and keeping it near the top in the rankings for the past few months.

I am at the end of Fullmetal arc. 2 more major arcs are remaining before the end. But wrapping this up will probably take 2-3 more months so I guess we will still be here in 2021. Though I will keep on writing more stuff and I hope it also amuses you as much as Grandpa Universe did.

Thank you for reading my book. Take care.]
