Chapter 77 - 68

The next day, Old man Edward and other people were still shaken by what they found out. Their families and friends that they loved were the ones who betrayed them. They were angry but most of all they broke from the inside. 

Every hope, Every feeling, Every joy, Every happy memory of them and their betrayers were coming to them. How did they not see that coming? They were questioning themselves. 

They were getting sad and angry at the same time. They were crying silent tears. They were cursing God for his cruel joke. All they had left were their happy memories with their families and their friends and he even took them. 

And it was not only them when they told everyone else the content of that file, everyone else too just broke. They were dead inside.

When Joshua came to play with the children he saw how everyone was just a mess. He just looked at them, didn't say anything, just looked at them. 

He then meets the children and they too were just as sad as the a.d.u.l.ts. 

Joshua moved to Julia's bed. She was crying and sobbing. Joshua sits beside her and she hugged him tightly. Joshua too hugged her back.

" Shhh, Don't cry princess. " ( J ) 

" They… sob…  abandoned me. Sob… They sent me there. " ( Ju )

Joshua sat on the bed and said. 

" Will crying change anything. It is not like they will change themselves after seeing you cry. It is what they want. They want you to cry. They want to break you. They don't want you to rise. 

Do not cry Julia, Don't let them win. Channel this sadness and anger and become what they don't want you to become. Become strong, stronger than anyone. Protect those like you who are regularly oppressed. Become what they will fear. Become a name that will strike fear in the heart of the evil ones and will give hope to those who have lost their hope. Become so strong that you can save those who are lost in the dark. 

Become the angel that will punish the wicked and protect the weak. Become the person that your brother wants you to be. " Joshua said. Joshua was not just talking to Julia, he was talking to everyone. 

" How do I become strong? I am just a child. " Julia asked him. There was a fire burning in her eyes. 

" Oh, here you are wrong Julia. You, my child, are already so strong. Everyone here is. They just don't know it. You have gone through things that no one should. You have seen the true face of mankind and you survived under their tortures. You and everyone here are strong. You just don't know it. 

You are strong and with the time you will grow more. You are so strong that they can't even let you become an a.d.u.l.t. 

What you need is to realize it. Because unless you realize that you are strong, people will always use you." 

Joshua said and looked at everyone. He saw something in every one of their eyes and mentally smirked at them. 

He was using his Empathy powers to the fullest here. He was fueling their hatred, their sadness, and most of all their anger. They were already broke and now his words ignited a new fire in their hearts.

It was all Joshua's plan. First, destroy them and then become their savior. First, snatch every hope they have, throw them in the dark, make them question themselves, make them question their existence, break them to their very foundation, make them hate everything that they once loved or adored, and when they don't have any purpose, and all that is left is hate and anger save them. Give them a purpose to live. A dream to help you achieve your dream. 

This whole family debacle could have gone very differently but he chooses every action very carefully. 

But don't let this manipulation fool you. He means every word he promised to them. He will make them strong, He needed them to see and believe in him, and for that these manipulations are a must. This is not a comic or fiction world that he once knew. It is real. And the reality is that these Elysians will never believe him after what they have gone through. They will not listen to him and at the first moment, they will betray him.

But now, they will be in his debt, they will. feel that this is their moral duty to help him achieve his dream or now their dream. 

" Tomorrow at 7 A.M. Sebastian will pick you all and let my little brother show you guys how strong you all are. " 

" Also, I am just teaching you how to use your gifts so that when you leave my place you will not be defenseless and can protect your brethren. 

This war is mine and mine alone. " And with that Joshua left no room for doubt that they will fight for him. 

Actually, this also was part of Joshua's plan. He wants them to beg him to join this war. He wants them to be absolutely dedicated to his dream of the Elysian race's rise. 

From here on Sebastian will make them his perfect soldiers. He will make them as loyal as Max to him. 

" Sebastian, send the files of what happens to them to their loved ones and who was responsible for it. " 

The next day 10 people all over the USA got some files and by the night all of them became the murders and wanted. Someone killed their neighbors, someone killed their parents, Someone killed his friend's girlfriend and like that. But what was common in these crimes was that the assailants didn't care for any planning. they came and killed the victims mercilessly, some peoples were even stabbed after their deaths. All of these crimes were 'hate crimes'. 

A/n: I am back. 

The week was really hectic. Tell me how was the chapter? 

Just a note, no one who was tortured for years, experimented for years will simply believe anyone. It is necessary to break them and then rebuild them how you like.
