Chapter 686: The start of Final Push
Chapter 686: The start of Final Push
Phixheim,
*POP*
Jesus was finally free now. After 5 billion years, his 1 year leave application was finally accepted by God. He came to find Alexander but he was not there.
"Hey, Buddha, let's go out and have some fun. I am hungry." He cheerfully said.
Buddha was simply meditating as he had nothing else to do. So, he agreed. Sometimes it was important to look around you instead of just focusing on yourself.
Both of them went out of Phixheim and appeared in Gotham city. It was less depressing now as people felt safer and the streets were full of open business.
The two walked the crowded streets. Buddha was wearing his usual orange tunic and Jesus wore his simple white robes.
"Man, there are so many people on the streets. Look at all these tall buildings. Back in my days, we lived in small huts. Only big cities had some small buildings." Jesus remembered.
Buddha replied, "I was born before you, Jesus. In my time, only the royal palace was big, all other buildings were made of mud and clay. Later we started making some monasteries using stone and wood."
"Ah, yes yes... I remember. But who was it whose birth defined the change of era? They still use the BC. Hehe..." Jesus chuckled."That is what happens when religion is spread through inquisitions rather than debates." Buddha struck back. But that was the end of their debate as it was pointless.
"I'm thirsty. Let's go and buy some coffee. There, that's a Starbucks." Jesus pointed.
"Do you have the money?" Buddha asked.
"Of course, I have money from all dimensions. I've been travelling for so long after all." Jesus took out his wallet.
Soon, they entered the place and ordered a plain latte. Coffee was too bitter for their taste.
All the while they were roaming around, people would sometimes come up to Buddha and bow with their hands pressed together.
"Woah, you are popular, Buddha. They seem to have recognised you." Jesus praised him.
"No, they did not recognise me. They most likely think I am some old learned monk." Buddha corrected him.
"HEY, YOU..." Suddenly a shout came.
They turned around and saw a woman pointing her figure at Jesus. Jesus questioned, "Me?"
"Yes you, how dare you to make fun of Jesus. He is not some cartoon character you degenerates can play as. Stop disrespecting people's religion." The woman with a Karen haircut screeched.
Jesus was speechless. The woman left after shouting. In return, Jesus received Buddha's pitty filled shoulder pat.
"Why did they respect you and curse at me?" He asked.
"BWAHAHAHAHA..." Alexander appeared soon while laughing loudly. His long beard fluttered with laughter.
"That is what I call lost in translation, Jesus," Alexander said. Buddha nodded.
"What do you mean?" Jesus asked.
"Well, if you were wearing the dress of a church father no one would have cursed at you. You see, Buddha is not a single person, he is not an idea. Buddha is a state of enlightenment that anyone can achieve. Anyone can be buddha and in everyone, there is a buddha. Am I right?" Alexander concluded.
Buddha nodded, "What Alex said is absolutely correct. There is Buddha in everyone."
"Well there is god in everyone too, that doesn't mean one looking like Jesus should be cursed. I never told them to make me their idol. I showed them a path to follow." Jesus argued.
"I know. Jesus, your words were probably not followed the way you left them as. As they passed down from generation to generation, people found new meaning to it. This happened with most religions on earth. People get easily offended if you cosplay as their god, except Buddha, of course, so Jesus, you might wanna change your clothes." Alexander advised him.
"I am the original Jesus and even I have to change clothes? Sheesh... humanity has come too low. Anyway, let's ignore this, Alex, you came at the right time. I have got the leave, I will be training you on some things you don't know. But first, let's have a drink." Jesus decided.
"What do you want to drink?" Alexander asked.
"Just bring me a water bottle, I will turn it into fine wine. Haha, I love that magic," he said laughingly.
After that, the three had some fun roaming around the city and eating different things. Then they returned to Phixheim to start training Alexander.
Alexander was already 85% as strong as God by now. Reaching 90% was his goal. Jesus was also at 80 per cent at the moment but he was not interested in getting stronger. Buddha was not interested in fighting so his power level was unknown because he never fought. But Alexander predicted that he was very strong because meditating was able to help him a lot, there was no way that it did not do the same to Buddha.
"So, what are you going to teach me?" Alexander asked.
"I am going to teach you how to play dead," Jesus replied.
*Cough* "What?" Alexander asked to reconfirm.
"Haha, you heard me right. I am telling you, Alex. It can be very helpful at certain times. After that, we will learn how to act. It is also very important when it comes to fighting." Jesus started giving his lessons.
Archangel Michael, Buddha and everyone free in Phixheim also joined them. The best in acting was Chomei though, the boy was born an actor. It wasn't easy to fake crying when asking for treats, after all.
"Okay, follow my lead."
...
Planet Apokolips,
Darkseid sat alone in his room. His towering body created a long shadow on the wall.
He took out a small spherical ball from his pocket and pressed a button on it. Then, the ball hovered in the air and a realistic-looking holographic image appeared. It was a man with a clean-shaven face, red shining eyes, long ears and lengthy white hair. His face screamed that he was evil.
Darkseid immediately bowed down, "Glory to the one true Supreme God. I have important information for you."
"What is it?" Zulrak asked uninterestingly.
"That heathen, Alexander is here. On earth." Darkseid revealed.
"Haha, oh how the fate works. I was wondering how he was hiding from me. He must have gained Omniscience. But who knew he was in my territory. Good job, dog. You will receive your reward." Zulrak stopped talking.
Darkseid gritted his teeth and stopped the transmission.
...
Zulrak's dimension,
Zulrak got up and headed to the armour room to put his armour on. He had called his most trusted and fanatical lieutenant already.
"Announce it in all realms, the final push has begun. But after that, you, Ravenflame, are going to go to him. I need you to do something. His bald son has killed countless of my soldiers. 6 trillion in total. So, I want you to go and kill 6 of his family members. Better if they are children and his wife." Zulrak ordered.
Ravenflame smiled and kneeled, "Finally, it is time, I will do it, My GOD."
He sent him away and donned his armour. Zulrak looked at himself in his mirror with a smile. "I've been avoiding you all this time, that old bastard liked you too much. But your own omniscience, your own strength, will be your weakness."
He then called his other most trusted person, Thunderbird.
"You do as I told you. Remember, Thunderbird, your task is of utmost importance and needs to be kept secret from all. Do this successfully and I will promote you." Zulrak ordered.
Thunderbird had no expressions. He bowed and left. That was how he was, but his loyalty was unwavering.
