Chapter 857  Rudy, Humans, and the Mythical Beings.

"You say you've saved us, but what about those we've lost?! What about the lives ruined by these experiments? How can we forgive and forget?!" another human yelled angrily.

"I understand the pain and anger you feel. I've witnessed the atrocities committed by this facility and I know how it feels.. We cannot change the past, but we can fight for a future where such horrors no longer exist. Let our actions speak louder than our words."

A human trembled in fear as she hugged herself and spoke while stuttering, "You ask for our loyalty, but what if we're just p.a.w.ns in your grand plan? Will you sacrifice us for your ideals?"

'Yes, if you try to do anything funny. You are no use to me. You can neither benefit me nor destroy me. I am simply doing a favor on you all by allowing you to be a part of my grand plan,' he uttered to himself.

Rudy shook his head and spoke in earnest and compa.s.sionate tone: "I would never sacrifice any of you. Your lives hold immeasurable value. I seek to protect and empower you, to give you a chance at a better life. Together, we will navigate the challenges ahead, so you can save others, just like I saved you all."

One of them raised his voice defiantly and yelled, "I won't bow down to you! We can fight for our own freedom, without relying on someone with uncontrollable powers."

'Yeah, right. You would have died, anyway. G.o.dd.a.m.n, why are humans so dumb? I saved them all and they can't show grat.i.tude? They obviously know what I can do, yet they think they can go against me and survive?

The mythical beings are smart. They know speaking against me would be a foolish move that would guarantee their death. They fear and respect me, so why can't these humans do the same?

I can simply kill those who won't submit to me, but I am making a good image here. If I kill a single soul, the rest of them wouldn't be pleased and they would develop a sense of hate towards me.'

SIGH!

He let out a weary sigh and calmed himself down.

Rudy gently smiled and responded, "I respect your independence and the strength of your spirit. But know that my powers can be used for the greater good. Let me prove to you that I am committed to building a future where all beings, including yourself, can thrive and be free."

'And if you are still not convinced, then go to h.e.l.l. I will kill you when no one is around. There are hundreds of thousands of you. If a few dozen of you go missing, none will notice.

Seriously, why do they make me look like a bad guy here? I am trying to help them, aren't I? If I truly wanted to harm them, I wouldn't have held back my powers when I was fighting with the super soldiers and even after that, when I fought the humans.

If I wanted p.a.w.ns, I would have used my hypnosis ability and ordered all of you to lick my feet.'

Rudy answered their questions and convinced all of them. After all, Rudy was only healing those who agreed with him, and who wouldn't want to live if they were given a chance?

One by one, they stepped forward, their voices trembling but determined. They pledged their loyalty to Rudy, their willingness to follow his lead, and to fight alongside him for a future where their lives would be preserved and their suffering would end.

Rudy acknowledged their pledges with a solemn nod, accepting their loyalty. He knew the weight of the responsibility he had taken upon himself to protect and safeguard their lives, but he was resolved to honor his promise.

With a surge of his power, Rudy began the intricate process of halting their mutations. His energy enveloped their bodies, coursing through their veins, and mending the damage that had been inflicted upon them. He painstakingly rewrote their genetic codes, restoring them to a state of stability and balance.

As the process unfolded, the humans could feel the transformative power of Rudy's abilities. The pain and despair of their mutations gradually gave way to relief and hope. They witnessed their bodies revert to a semblance of their former selves; the mutations receding and fading away.

When the process was complete, Rudy stood before them, their savior and protector. He urged them to embrace their second chance at life, to cherish the opportunity they had been granted. But he reminded them that their loyalty and dedication to the cause were crucial for their continued well-being.

The humans, overwhelmed with grat.i.tude, pledged their eternal loyalty to Rudy. They understood the gravity of his sacrifice and the profound impact his powers had on their lives. ????????.???

Rudy stood at the center of a s.p.a.cious area surrounded by the liberated humans and mythical creatures. His gaze moved across the diverse a.s.sembly, each face reflecting a mixture of curiosity, hope, and uncertainty.

With a wave of his hand, the air s.h.i.+mmered with energy, and elemental creatures materialized before them - majestic creatures of fire, gentle beings of water, st.u.r.dy embodiments of earth, and ethereal spirits of the air.

"My friends," Rudy began, his voice carrying a sense of authority and compa.s.sion. "You have all suffered under the oppression of the clandestine facility. Today, I offer you a choice. You can return to the world you once knew, or you can join me in my dynasty, a place of safety and abundance."

Whispers of excitement filled the room as the creatures and humans exchanged glances, contemplating their options. Some had been torn from their homelands and longed to return, while others sought refuge and stability in the sanctuary Rudy promised.

A few humans stepped forward, their expressions filled with determination. "We want to go back to our families," they voiced, their voices tinged with both hope and hesitation.

Who in their right mind wouldn't want to do that?

Even Rudy, when he was in the same situation, where he was experimented on… there wasn't a single second where he wished he hadn't agreed for the super gene experiment. And that he had died in the bed alongside his loved ones.
