Chapter 67 : Chossing his Land (1)
Embra, Keinnayi, Algadore, Sethar, and the old god walks out of the white gate and step into the separate dimension. Goddess Gaia welcomes them while creating a purple cloud for each one of them including the old man. She also creates a round table and let all the people sit around the table.
"Welcome. I see that thou have gained another great strength, Embra. Congratulations on getting a sword made from an Ouroboros fang." (Gaia)
"Thank you for your words, Goddess Gaia. I think I made another step in my path to godhood." (Embra)
"Indeed, you did, Embra. Well, now. I see that you don't want to prolong this anymore. Right, Embra?" (Lashili)
Goddess Lashili has already known of Embra's angry state of mind. She knows that Embra's anger is directed at his own weakness. It is not only Goddess Lashili who knows Embra is a little angry. Goddess Gaia knows of it too. They as creator goddesses have already known of what happened in the realm of the god of the world. So, both the goddesses no longer exchange pleasantries with Embra and get down to business.
The other people are a little confused again but, seeing that Embra, Goddess Gaia, and Goddess Lashili are serious, they swallow their words and attentively listen to the conversation.
Goddess Gaia makes a huge map on the round table, which shows the map of this world. Every continent, every land, and every island are draw and with a flick of the goddess Gaia's hand, the map becomes colorful.
"This is the map of this world, Agartha. It is no different from earth besides having larger land. Two-third of this world, Agartha, is composed of land and from there, Embra, thou may choose any land as long as it is a total of a million square miles. The land thee chose will become thine in all essence, meaning thou will have right over the land and become a god of that land.
Thou may choose any land and if there is a god living on that land, that God will be moved elsewhere and thou will become a god of that land. So, in exchange for that, the heaven court ordered that thou will not be provided more information about this world than this when choosing the lands and some help in managing the lands.
Here, the ones colored by green are lands with no gods, the ones colored by orange are owned by a lower god, and the ones colored by red are owned by an upper god. So now, choose the land thou wants to own." (Gaia)
Embra looks at the maps carefully and remembers the precise ratio of the maps and the colors in it. After remembering Goddess Gaia's map by a photo, Embra closes his eyes to think while comparing the Earth's map and Agartha's map.
'I expected this but, I am starting with a lower god position right off the bat, huh? Alright, then. Let's plan for a fu*king world conquest. Eve, show me the previous research result.' (Embra's thought)
Embra has already ordered Eve during the hundred days training to research about the earth's land information. The information includes the 'strategic importance of a place', 'disaster frequent place', 'resourceful places', 'spiritual places' and many others. Eve have quite a bit of data about Earth in the first place and combined that with all the information on earth he has in his computers, there is a huge amount of data. Embra orders her to research that data exactly for these times. And, using the data provided by Eve, Embra starts choosing his own lands.
'First, I should choose a resourceful place. This. This... and this land. Next is to filter the strategic locations based on the Earth's information. Next is to avoid places with big cities. So, Bejing, out. Barcelona, out. This out... This is also out. Let's also avoid natural disaster frequent places like a tsunami ... Alright. So, this is the final lands, huh?
Goddess Gaia, Goddess Lashili, these are the lands I want.' (Embra's thought)
In Embra's mind, he has already chosen the lands he wanted and after circling the places he wanted in his mind, Embra asks for the two goddesses' help because he doesn't have fantasy power like displaying the image in his mind.
Goddess Gaia nods and extends her hands to the table and soon, the lands Embra circled in his mind are marked by white on the map placed on the table. Goddess Lashili also extends her hands and soon, inside the white parts, black parts appear.
"Embra, The white parts are the parts you chose. The black parts are the parts of the land you will receive because your total white parts exceed one million square miles. Feel free to make some adjustments." (Lashili)
'I see. The land of this world is much bigger than earth. So, I am gonna need some adjustments, huh? Let's ask for some exact number.' (Embra's thought)
Embra asks for the actual area of the white parts and Goddess Gaia allows his request and shows the numbers. Embra memorizes the numbers in a glance and soon, made another image in his mind. Goddess Lashili looks at the image in Embra's mind and soon, some parts of the huge map on the table become white parts, the same as the image in Embra's mind.
To summarize the lands Embra chose:
Madagascar - 227,000 Square Mile
French Southern and Antarctic Lands - 170,000 Square Mile
Jeju - 1700 Square Mile
Iceland - 40,000 Square Mile
South Africa - 161,000 Square Mile
Venezuela - 50,000 Square Mile
Japan -104,000 Square Mile + 20,000 Square Mile
Australia - 50,000 Square Mile
Myanmar - 60,000. Square Mile
US Wyoming- 100,000 Square Mile
Whitsunday Islands - 1000 Square Mile
Maldives - 15,000 Square Mile
The total area of land Embra chose: 999,700 square mile
The lands he chose are based on the Earth information he has on his computer and Eve's database. All of these places are full of resources and strategic places, except for Venezuela, the place Embra chose for his own training. There are still many places he needs to conquer if he were planning a world conquest but, he will conquer those lands later. For now, he now had a base on every continent on Agartha.
As there is still a 300 square mile area of land that Embra can own, Embra asked for the forest he lived for five years. And, together with that Embra now owns a million square mile land of Agartha in his hand.
The old man's eyes could no longer shut looking at the white places and his jaws could not close even after a minute. It is because of Embra's choices of land.
'How? How? Seriously, how? Hoe does this guy knows of these places? There is no way he chose randomly even though the white parts are all over the maps? How? Why?? How did you do it, Embra? How did you choose only lands of precious resources?' (Old god's thought)
The old god of this world is screaming in his mind. He has no single clue on how Embra chose these places. He seriously has no idea. Not only that, he could not see the purpose of Embra in choosing those lands which seems random.
The three girls are also confused. Especially, Algadore. The three talk with telepathy not to disturb anyone.
{Is it just me or does it seems random? There is... seriously no pattern! What am I looking at?} (Algadore)
{If I am not wrong, on Earth, Africa, Venezuela and some of the Japan lands... those lands are rich in resources like iron and oil. I understand him choosing those places because they are resourceful but, why did he Maldives, Madagascar, Iceland, Australia... those are only good for sightseeing, right?} (Keinnayi)
{Yes, I believe he also chose those places because they have beautiful nature. But, on the other hand, they are strategic places against the big countries near it. A good place to attack a country from inside. And, if I am not wrong, Myanmar and Wyoming, these places are rich in Jade. Besides that, those lands have no purpose.} (Sethar)
{Wait a minute. I know that place. That place in Africa. Wasn't that place we visited with Embra before his 'World revolution'?} (Keinnayi)
{Yes, It is but, Did he chose the whole lower end of South Africa because of the place we went to? Most of it is just a barren land, though.} (Sethar)
{No! Don't you remember you asking about a huge crater on Africa when we flew past that place?} (Keinnayi)
{Ah! Meteorite! That part of Africa is the place meteorite strike in the past. So, that's why he chose those lands.}(Sethar)
{OH? So, he chose those places to get some material from outer space, huh? Even though he cannot be sure yet whether those places in this world will be strike again by meteorites, he chose that place, huh? Quite bold of him.} (Algadore)
{No, it is more than that. Now that I look at it closely, some of those places produce metal for Nuclear.} (Sethar)
{I see. My Embra is always thinking ahead, isn't he? He will take resources of the land if there is some and if not, he will take resources from a meteorite, huh? It seems that even if there is no resource for him to take, he has that huge barren land. So, he will surely start building something for his own civilization. Wow. I am shivering thinking about that.} (Keinnayi)
{Me, too. It is these times that his calculation ability shines the most.} (Sethar)
{OI.OI. It is frightening me when you two put it like that. Now, I want to hear about Embra's past again.} (Algadore)
{Ahaha. Don't worry. I will tell you over some tea.} (Keinnayi)
{Alright. You promised.} (Algadore)
The three girls guessed about the reasons why Embra chose those places but, the reasons they pointed out are just only the tip of the reason why Embra chose those places. There are much, much more depth to Embra's choices, and the only ones who know that are Goddess Gaia and Goddess Lashili, the two creator goddesses. They were more than impressed at Embra's wisdom. They think while looking at Embra who is thinking about future plans.
'I see. So, this is how he planned for the world revolution in his teenage years. Embra. What a respectable man you are. You are almost making me fall for you. Well, I guess that means to say that intelligence is sexy, right?' (Lashili)
'Quite a deep wisdom, at this young age... I will be looking forward to the day, thou rise up to godhood, Embra. I have a hunch that, thou will become one in less than half a thousand years.' (Gaia)
The meeting continues again after Embra made his final decision about the lands he chose and the old god of the world proceed to write the decrees about the changing of Land Ownership. The world of Agartha will soon be engulfed by a huge power and this time again, one man will be in the middle of it.
