[Author's POV]

"Zen, can you just shut up?"

Zen saw Ally at a glance. "NO!!" lantang. Even so, Ally knew Zen didn't mean to snap at her. It was just an expression of Zen's mixed feelings. The man has been drinking two cups of coffee since 9.

He was so mixed for 6 hours, to wait for the 5 mainstay humans to complete the mutancy process.

"It's 3 in the morning, Zen. Take it easy, soon they will come here." entertain Ally which of course has no effect on Zen.

In fact, the man remained pacing while rubbing his hands agitatedly. "What if I fail? What if they can't stand the side effects? WHAT IF I KILL PEOPLE?"

Ally became part of the parno because she saw the agitated Zen gelagat constantly. "Shut up, Zen! I got scared." a split second later, he regretted his words. He should not be afraid in front of people who are panicking.

"But I believe you, Zen! Your research results never deviated a bit, really!" ally was trying to atone for her guilt.

Zen took a breath, then exhaled it. "Yes, but this time the object is a human, Ally-"

Unable to finish his words, a professor ran into the meeting room where Zen and Ally were now.

Zen ran over to the professor, "How?!! Did it work?!" tanya Zen. His heart beat very fast.

The professor smiled broadly, "Happy ZEN! YOU SUCCEEDED!"

Zen sat down instantly. It's very.amat.lega.

Ally approached Zen enthusiastically, "WHAT I SAID!! CONGRATULATIONS, ZEN!!" with a smile.

"Damn. I made a mutant." murmured Zen in disbelief.

The professor smiled, "They will come one by one."

"Who's the first?" asked Zen still in a limp tone. He still did not expect.

Geck! Geck!

Door opens.

There was a man and a professor walking in front of him.

The man had a handsome face with his stern jaw, plus, he looked striking because of his red ginger* hair which was also the same color as a thing coming out of his hands.

Flames.

Ally's jaw dropped, she was amazed by what she saw. "His hands don't burn." he murmured softly.

The man's eyes scoured the entire corner of the room, until his manic met with Zen beads.

He said, "Hi, Professor!"

Zen smiled, "Alex Benedict, welcome." said Zen kindly.

No one could measure how happy Zen was now. Seeing firsthand the humans, the mutants he managed to make. Without taking a life, not even a scratch or a wound.

Alex's grin is getting wider,* "I'm your biggest fan!" *he said to Zen. Which, of course, is a lie, he just found out that there is a professor named Zen alive in this world. Obviously he was just carried away by his mood that was enthusiastic about his strength.

Zen chuckled, he knew Alex was lying. "Sit here, Alex" he said, pointing to a chair on the edge of the round table.

Alex sat down at the place he was prepared for. Indeed the tumben he complied, because he was busy with his own world now. He was busy watching the flames emerging from his palm.

"It's really crazy.you guys should call me Hades from now on!!" alex said with sumringah. The name of Hades in Greek mythology, as the god of hell. That in other words is also the firebender, like Alex is now.

Zen smiled, a little forced for a long time. He was somewhat astonished why his choice was this.

"WOAHH! LOOKIE! I CAN MAKE DUGONGS!" alex yelled enthusiastically when he could accidentally form a dugong with his fire.

The professor, who was with Alex, approached Zen, "You have to be patient with him. It's a little crazy." whispered.

"Not a little like it." Ally said slowly. Honestly, he was caught up in Alex's charm when he first saw her, he thought Alex was as determined and serious as he looked. It seems far away.

Geck! Geck!

Door opens.

Ally furrowed her brows, yet she had no time to ask, Zen had already charged first. "Masukla"

"LIA!!" not even Zen had time to finish his words, Alex had shouted first. He stood up from his chair and looked at the woman.

Yup! That woman is Axelia, Alex's co-club.

Alex immediately ran up to Axelia, watching her from top to bottom, "Tock your clothes change?! When you wake up, it is replaced?! Means replaced when you're sedated? Who's the one who's banging"

Alexa put her index finger on Alex's lips, "SSSUUUTT!!" axelia panicked. He stepped back, watching Alex from top to bottom with wide eyes, after which he turned his gaze to Ally and Zen who had been confused to see Alex and Axelia, "BE QUIET THERE! EVERYONE STAY PUT!!!" lantang.

A split second later, he rubbed his eyes in disbelief. Making the three people there exchanged looks, along with confusion.

"Lia! You're a fickle?"

"Oh my God, please forgive me my sins, I swear Alex took me to the club. After all just to pretend to be an actor, Oh my God, I really won't sin anymore, Tolog turn me back on!!" axelia said suddenly, she knelt down facing the empty wind.

"Lia! What the hell are you?! You're still alive!!" alex said at last, still with the eyebrows that are linked.

Alex's words made Axelia turn her head for a moment. He was wide-eyed. "I am.. am I not dead?" tanyanya. A second later, he gasped, "AH YES! I'M ALIVE, YOU'RE DEAD! UH- ALEX?! HOW COULD YOU DIE?!" axelia panicked not playing.

"Dead?? Whatchu mean? We're still alive." Ally finally opened her voice, she could not stand this obscurity.

"Well??" Axelia slipped again, "Then why can I see the spirits of all of you clearly... ?"

Zen furrowed his brows, he really did not understand. Why are the people of his choice not all sane?

"WHY... CAN I SEE YOUR SPIRITS?"

Zen approached the curious Axelia, in his heart he thought hard, is this because of the influence of his mutant serum? Or the...

"Ah, my goodness!" suddenly said. He patted his head, remembering something, "Axelia, this is your new strength. Don't panic, you're alive, we're alive, too."

Zen helps Axelia to her feet, allowing her to sit in the chair she provided next to Alex. Axelia sat down slowly, still with a confused face.

"Strength?" Axelia turned to Alex, "What power does WHAAA mean!! WH-FIRE! THERE'S A FIRE IN YOUR HAND!" frightened screams.

"No, it's not. It's not what you see. Alex's hands are unburned, unharmed, not a fire, not magic. But it's her power, Axelia." Zen quickly explained. He did not want this meeting room to become more noisy.

"Professor J has explained everything in detail to you, right? From the mutantized genetic changes, side effects, and powers that will flow through your body, do you remember?" Ally added.

Axelia gasped for the umpteenth time, she just remembered it all. "I... Now is... mutant?" he's amazed. He remembered all Professor J's words shortly before he was drugged with a high dose to be mutated.

Professor J tells him that he will be able to see the spirits of all the dead and the living. It sounds like Axelia is getting more depressed, but she decides to approve it because of the greatness of her powers.

That is, spirit control.

Alex extended his right hand to Axelia's front, setting a blaze. As well as showing off his skills that can form a better dugong, "Sama, I am also a mutant" he said with a proud smile.

The look on Axelia's face that had been happy, now turned into disgust, "EW! IT HAS TO BE ONCE, HUH, DUGONG?"

Alex furrowed his brows, then looked at his artwork, "Isn't it good?"

Seeing the two people who had calmed down, Zen also breathed a sigh of relief. He turned to look at Ally, "The next one told him to come in."

Ally turned on her communication device that was attached to her right ear, "Professor H, you can already bring her in." she whispered.

Shortly afterwards, after Ally heard Professor H's reply, her countenance changed. He smiled widely.

"Why? What say?" asked Zen who noticed Ally's face change.

"We can't meet the next guy here." Ally stood up from her chair in spirit.

Zen's forehead wrinkled, "What do you mean?"

"He can fly, Zen."
