The Mech Lord

Chapter 77 - 76: Temple Of Light



A few days ago...

Planet Light Sky, Northern Universe

A tower stood tall on this planet. It's peak couldn't be seen from the ground as it went piercing into the sky like a ladder to heavens. The place was famous and known across the universe.

The Divine tower had been a symbol of Peace for a long time.

This place was the headquarters of the Temple of Light. One of the largest and most influential religious body across the entire Universe.

On the topmost floor of the tower, a place which was close to the outside world, sat an elderly looking man on a Golden Throne. There were several knights around him standing still in silence.

This man was the Divine Priest of the Temple, Pope Clement Evaristus.

His eyes were shut tight, and behind him stood a giant statue of what looked like an angel with it's hand clasped together and face turned upwards. But there was an odd thing about the statue, there two cracks on this angel statue.

Suddenly, the Pope's brows quivered as a Will came crashing down on the place and the next instant, a light cracking noise was heard as another crack similar to the previous two appeared on the Statue.

"Clang!"

"Clang!"

"Clang!"

..

One by one, all the knights standing around fell to the ground and within a second, there was only one conscious person left in the room.

The Pope's eyes slowly opened up as they peered through the space into the distance, "So, he found a successor too. It's the third one this year, these people never get tired of it, do they.."

He shook his head with a smile on his face before closing them again.

….

Current Situation, Gloria.

"I think we can proceed to the next step here," The Doctor smiled looking at Leo's severed arm. It looked pretty good now. And, Leo no longer felt much pain from it, though there were occasional uncomfortable feelings arising from it. "There is really no problem here. You are worrying for no reason mam."

A smile immediately appeared on Viona' s face on hearing that. And, she hugged Leo in joy with glistening eyes.

Leo on the other hand could only helplessly look at her. It was his fault to begin with. He had lost control of his Arora energy and almost destroyed his room. And, when Viona rushed up to see what was going on, he had to go ahead with a foolish reasoning. Yes, he said that he lost control over his energy while practicing due to a sharp pain from his severed arm.

This really got her worried and she immediately brought him for another check up in concern.

"Well, now that you are here, why don't you go ahead and look at the outer designs for the Prosthetic arm?" The Doctor asked with a smile as he looked at Leo. They had already taken care of all the measurements.

Now, Leo needed to choose the type and outer look. With that, they could go ahead to build the Prosthetic arm,

As Viona continued to talk with the Doctor, Leo swiped the projection screen sideways looking at the designs. It was then that one of the designs caught his eyes, it looked quite similar to the Bionic Battle Arm in terms of look.

This immediately made him a bit excited.

The Bionic Battle Arm was different from normal Prosthetic Arm so he was a bit worried of attracting unnecessary attention. But, with these he could be a bit at ease. There was no way for people to find anything odd with his prosthetic arm unless they opened it up.

After all, the major difference with the Bionic battle Arm was that it could actually work according to the user's level, but it was not possible in a normal one. Normal Prosthetic arms had their level fixed at manufacture. Hence, Leo was not getting caught, at least not in a short time.

"I want this one." Leo showed the thing to the Doctor and he just gave it a nod.

"Can I witness the manufacturing process?" He further asked in expectation. If he could see the process and record it, that would definitely help him a lot.

He had actually been practicing the making of the Bionic Battle Arm using the [Virtual Projection], but a real life experience was still something else.

"Sure," The Doctor agreed without any hesitation. This was actually a very common request among patients. And, it even helped the Hospital in building a good reputation by having transparency in their manufacturing process.

'Arthur, be sure to record it.'

With that, Leo and Viona were taken to the manufacturing Lab.

'Ugh! My eyes!' Leo felt it to be too bright. There were so many things that he could have only wished for in his dreams.

'Is this a Full Body Scanner? And the latest version too. Damn! I heard it could give out data down to micro levels!'

His eyes immediately began to dart all around the place, when one of the staff members called out to him to not touch anything.

"I am sorry," Leo apologized to him and then went ahead to the place where he was given a seat to watch the entire process.

With that the Doctor and Viona left for a while. It seemed that Viona was still worried about something and wanted to discuss the Doctor about it. After all, this Hospital belonged to one of her close friends So, any medical worries could be resolved for them here without a sweat.

'Arthur, remember to record it.' Leo reminded him.

[I am on it.]

Silver Mansion, Gloria.

On the other side, a little four legged figure appeared on the gates of the Silver Mansion. It was really in a bad condition and looked pretty dirty. Only God knew what had gone to end up in that horrible situation.

Yes, it is the little kitten whom Leo had forgotten about, Nyanden.

The little fellow had been taken away by Jack and locked up in a cage where Jack later forgot about him.

Aiden had spend a day or two there. But, when there were no signs of Leo coming to get him. He decided to make a plan of breakthrough.

Since then, it has been a struggle of life and death.

"I am finally here-nya!!"

He screamed in tears of joy before falling flat on his back.

He didn't have an ounce of energy left in him.

As he was looking towards the sky, a figure suddenly entered his vision.

"It's a cat.." The figure spoke in excitement.

And, it sure was a familiar person.

Amelia stooped down to poke the little kitten wondering if it was dead or something. After all, it looked like it was close to death.

"Let me help you," She said with a smile before picking him up.

"No, let me go!!" Aiden screamed, having a bad feeling about it.

"Meow! Meow!"

"Don't worry, we will get you back to good health.." She obviously didn't understand him.
