"Dude, that name is sick !!!!", Leo said this shock, not because of the ed name but because he might be the only person in the central universe to know Paul's full name.
"The name came from one of my ancestors named Arthur Pendragon," said Paul with a proud expression.
"If you are so proud of it why don't you use it in the central universe?"
"Even though I am proud, I'm also embarrassed for having that long name. In my school days, the other kids used to bully me for having that name. Well not only because of my name but also because I used to be timid and silent", said Paul reminiscing his old school days.
"Come on buddy. If you want, you can squash them without moving an inch. why bother?"
"If it is me four years back I would have surely take my revenge. But now it is beneath me."
"True that", said Leo. Even a mid-level shadow warrior can be easily defeated by Paul. A Non Evolver is an ant not even worth to fight it out.
While they are talking the X-369 completed its last FTL leap in the journey to planet earth. Paul and Leo can see a huge mass of asteroids right before them.
This is a Kuiper belt, the outermost area surrounding the Solar System. It is estimated approximately to be 4.6 billion kilometers from earth. For a small spacecraft life X-369, it is more than possible to maneuver in this asteroid belt at its maximum speed below FTL.
"It will take us two days for us generally to reach the atmosphere of planet earth. But as we should travel in stealth mode it will take us two more days" said Paul looking at the control panel of the spacecraft.
"Are you excited?" asked Leo looking at the face of Paul which is beet red.
"Of course I'm excited, but I'm nervous to meet my family after four years"
"I should definitely record this and show it to for circle friends. The great Paul, who can take a battalion of surpassers head-on without breaking a sweat is getting nervous. This will seriously make tabloids go into a frenzy. Ha Ha ha Ha.....!!!!" teased Leo.
Leo knew Paul from at least 4 years. Which means he knows him from when Paul is a Level 1 genetic warrior. Even though Leo attends the special class with geniuses, the least strong in the class is a level 1 super. At least it's used be until Paul admitted into the class.
This shocked everyone because no nobodies can enter this class. No one knows who Paul is and he is a Level 1 genetic warrior which means he just became an evolver.
Everyone in class avoided Paul but as an extrovert Leo started his trails to become friends with Paul. After a month of constant pestering, he became the one and only friend of Paul.
when time by, people started to realize his potential. In 2 months Paul broke through the mid-level of Evolver stage. In 6 months of the high level of Evolver and within one year he is at level 1 super.
This speed is unprecedented. Everyone in the special class first felt jealous because of his cultivation speed but later they are terrified. As a special class, they have special lectures which include practical battle experience. Where the students will enter dangerous regions to carry out missions. In the end, Paul will always be the top rank at every mission making all others became too distant to him.
But there are some students from other elite classes who genuinely admired Paul and became close to him. Later it became into a friend circle. Even though there is no specific name to this circle. The senior generation called them "The Devils" and the younger generation called them "The Supremes". Why? you ask.
Because everyone one of them in the circle is most powerful at the age of twenty and everyone has the potential to at least become a Galaxy grade expert.
"Do you want to die", said Paul with a murderous look to Leo.
"Of course I don't want to. But I might never get such a to tease you" retorted Leo. Even though Paul has friends now, Leo is the only one who is close enough to tease him.
"By the way, where did you plan to land this spacecraft?" asked confused Leo, because earth is not yet a stellar civilization. so there no landing pods or docking stations to land this spacecraft.
"Oh we are not landing on earth"
"Then where?"
Paul made a smug face which Leo hated to see most. Leonard knows something dangerous is going to happen to him.
"We are going for a dive in the ocean ".
"OH HELL NO!!!"
