Chapter 668: Year Three Post Collapse Of The DPZ (6)
-Roughly Three Years after the Collapse of the DPZ-
Sieg Zeon, the words heard around the lands, lit a fire in the bellies of anyone who heard them. President Lallinstien's death and subsequent actions would be written in the annals of history as a dark day in the history of Amestria Moor.
But as Char had requested, the face of the Government radically changed almost overnight, as multiple riots began all over Valor City and every major city in the country.
Their goal was to uproot the diseased beings who threatened their lively hood in one fell swoop, and by the end of the one week allocated for the Advancement strife, an entirely new staff was formed, with a new figurehead put in place, a man named Issac Noa.
Like his predecessor Evander, Issac Noa was a well-known military man who had defended the nation's borders and had an impressive unblemished service record.
Although he wasn't at the Peak of Tier-6, he was still within the realm of Tier-6 at the middle rank, and upon taking office, began following through with the cleansing Amestria Moor desperately required, or at least that's how it appeared on the surface.
Unfortunately, things were about as Cynrik had expected, with the corruption so deep that no matter who was put in charge, it would only be a matter of time before things reverted to how they were previously.
Still, this didn't bother him in the least because, from the beginning, all he wanted to do was exact a satisfying revenge against those who had directly had a hand in wronging him.
Even so, temporary relief is still a relief, and with the largest offender dead, Cynrik returned to his dull life of training and tinkering with new Engineering toys.
Meanwhile, the horrors of the Advancement Strife came to light during the live stream duration of the event. Fights broke out between competitors over resources and points, and many had to watch as their loved ones were killed because they couldn't activate the lifesaving artifact in time.
From the original 4392 young adults who entered, 2855 returned alive, and even if they were all significantly stronger than the day they entered the Spatial realm, the loss of so many young lives was felt by the nation.
For an entire week, Amestria Moor was on the edge of their seats as new celebrities were crowned, many young geniuses fell, and for the first time on live television, the Tier-4 evolution was shown.
All the while, Cynrik and MyrkLys sat in their dorm living room, watching the event unhappily, as they felt the bite of jealousy.
Three days into the event, Cynrik and Selene had seen enough and decided to give up watching with the group and entered the Shadow Realm.
"So, I guess he wasn't a Charge like us," on the fourth day, as Selene and Cynrik lay in bed, naked after a fierce bedroom battle, Selene spoke up about the past few days for the first time.
"Mm, it was only a 20% chance that he was from the get-go; I was more concerned about someone on his staff being a charge," Cynrik grumbled while playing with his Kona's perky and exposed breast.
"Really? How you talked about it led me to believe it was at least around 45-60 percent." Calmly reaching over, Selene took Cynrik's testicles in his hand and rolled them around her fingers much in the same way he was doing with her boob.
It wasn't an inherently sexual act for either of them, but instead more of a comforting thing, kind of like playing with one's long hair, more of a fidget than anything.
And since the two of them were so comfortable naked around each other, things had eventually progressed to this point, where they found solace and comfort in each other's bodies without feeling the need to get all hyper-sexualized by it.
"I admit, initially, my theory had the percentage around that window; however, the more thought I put into it, and the more I hyperanalyzed the data, the lower the percentage fell. In the end, had Evander been a Charge, Abe would have had a more difficult time dealing with him."
Abe, the nickname Cynrik had given Governor Samieer, whose first name was Abdul, was precisely the man who had taken the stage during the Opening Ceremony of the Advancement Strife and had been the Peak Tier-6 who not only dawned the guise of Casaval Daikun but also put down Evander Lallinstien like it was easy.
"You know how it is with us, Charges. We are all freaks who can punch above their tier to some extent, and according to what Abe told me after he took out Evander, the man was an ordinary Tier-6, with nothing excessive to note." Cynrik stated matter of factly.
"Hmm, this conversation is boring, so can I request something for round two Darling~?" Uncaring about how the conversation was going, Selene changed topics and put on a mischievous smile, causing Cynrik to roll his eyes as he already had a feeling about what she would say.
"Sigh, the things I do for the woman I love, finnnne, I'll wear the Char cosplay for round two, but only if you wear the Nanai one." Givin into her willful fetish, Cynrik leaned over, planted a kiss on her lips, and hopped out of bed.
"Yeayyy, you know me so well, teehee, ok on three, we change." Hopping to her feet while still on the bed and striking a pose in the nude, Selene cheerfully channeled her mana top to bottom in her body and got ready to activate the Shifter skill Cynrik had developed for the two of them.
As far as skills went, it was a relatively simple yet effective one so long as you had access to Divine Particles; however, that was the trick; you needed to be able to manipulate the High form of Mana particles in order to do so.
Still, even though Cynrik and Selene could do it, Brance was severely lacking in this respect, which was surprising considering he was the best at utilizing the particles in the trio.
The Science Behind, the Shifter Skill was something Cynrik had been toying with for years, only it wasn't something possible with Normal Mana particles, and one day, on a whim, he decided to change the properties of a cluster of Divine particles only to discover it actually worked.
From there, he created a skill that would mold the Particles, making up living and non-living matter so they would receive a surface-level change, and BOOM, the Shifter skill, was born.
However, it wouldn't do if only Cynrik could do it, so after rigorous testing, he went ahead and passed it on to his Kona.
It was only because of their connection through the Mind Body and Soul link that Selene learned the skill, thanks to sharing part of Cynrik's Mana manipulation ability, and after a bit of training, she too could change her outer appearance, height, and even bust size albeit only shrinking them.
Using the theory of Equivalent exchange, Cynrik and Selene needed a medium to flood with Divine particles first, so things like clothes were necessary, and after some preparation and a flash of light, Nanai Stood on the bed in her uniform while Char stood beside the bed.
"My beloved Char, take me, make a mess of me, make me yours," Changing her voice to the one she heard in Cynrik's memories, she seduced her man, and soon enough, the sounds of pleasure-filled moans filled the Shadow Realm.
