'I wonder why that Goddess gave you such a skill for free.' Anne said but her thoughts was quickly refuted.

'Why don't we think about that later.' William said as Anne's voice went lost without any probes.

William returned his attention back to surface level and saw that Edward had brought him inside the main office. Not his personal one but the one used for any type of recon or planning to be reviewed.

He could tell that by looking at the large holographic board in front of him that was showing many kinds of photos that had details right beside them.

Edward pointed towards the sofa's as they sat and conversed.

"Do you guys want some tea or coffee or anything else?" Edward asked.

"I would like some coffee." William said.

"And I would like some… coffee as well." Delmar initially wanted to say that he wanted some beer or anything alcohol related but he knew that this was a very costly project that he had to remain guard on. That meant that no kinds of funny business were to happen here… even by him.

Normally he wouldn't care about such matters, but the billions of dollars being invested in this project made him rethink about his actions.

Edwards assistant wrote down the orders and looked at Naomi to see her shaking her head subtly, which she understood and ordered the items through her pad.

Edward smiled immutably, "So we are finally here."

William adorned the same smile, "Yes, we are. How is everything going?"

"It's going great by the current point. I haven't actually ventured out to any sites or explored any ruins but the scouts and recons have all come back with refreshing results."

"Oh!" William looked at him with surprised eyes. "Did they find something good?"

"More than good." Edwards had an overspread smile as he turned around to the hologram and pointed, "Let me show you what they found."

The holographic screen zoomed in and came to a photo of a statue. The statue was that of a man who had no hair and was only wearing robes on his body. The man also had a large prayer bead hung on his neck.

William felt quite the resemblance when he saw the photo. It reminded him of a religion back from his old world and seeing it here made him suspicious of somethings as well.

"What does this statue make you think?" Edward suddenly asked as William came back from his long thoughts.

"Hmm… It reminds me of a man of simple origin," William said and then chose to risk it, "Or a statue of a priest."

Edward's surprised look made William know that he hit the jackpot, "Wow!... That was quite the assumption there."

Suppressing his happy look, he asked unknowingly, "Was I close to it?"

Edward nodded, "More than just close, You are absolutely correct." He turned to look at the statue, "That statue is actually a picture of a priest."

"But… I don't seem to recognize that clothes or style anywhere."

"That's because the priest is from a religion dating back more than 100 thousand years."

William made surprised face as Edward continued, "And this photo just proofs that a huge civilization or close to a settlement with its own religion had existed back then."

"The recon team was wandering around some far away forest when they found this statue. Surprisingly it still stood strong against the passing of time."

"The beautiful mystery of history." William said as Edward nodded wholeheartedly.

"This is not even the real thing, it's just a teaser to it."

"Oh! Really?"

Edward answered by showing another photo. This time it was of a large blue crystal that glistened quite remarkably. William didn't know what it was but his company seemed to.

Delmar looked at it with a glint in his eyes and Naomi nodded feeling that this could be the start of a great venture.

Edward looked only at William but didn't seem to find the excitement that he wanted. It looked as if he didn't care about the photo at all.

"How does this look?"

"Hmm… William took a moment to look at the photo and it seemed that he was thinking quite deep into it. But in reality he didn't understand a think about the photo. n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om

Why was he being shown a photo of glistening crystal?

Why did this thing matter so much to the group of people around him?

And for fuc*s sake, why was he the one being asked what it was?

William was beginning to feel quite pressured by the question and didn't know how to answer it, but to his rescue came Anne.

'It's a mana crystal.'

'Huh?'

'You know the one used for almost everything mana related in this world?'

'Oh! So this is the one.'

'Yes… you really should catch up on some of this things you know.'

'Hehe… I will. Thanks for the help, you really came at a great time.' William said to Anne.

William did read up on mana crystals but it was one of the most basic things in the world so the thing he had read upon did not have any image on it and he was too lazy to search something so basic.

He thought that it wouldn't be necessary in the future but surprise surprise here we are.

'Can you tell me something else about it?'

'Well… by the looks of it, this is a pure mana crystal… quite a rare find in fact.'

'Okay, anything else?'

'Ones designed and structured like that are mostly find in groups so… there might be more of them around it.'

'Thanks again.'

'If you ever need me again, just call this great generous sympathati-' William closed out the rest of the monologue and turned to Edward.

Edward felt that William was able to see the true meaning of this image, so he remained quiet until-

"This is a pure crystal right?"

His words seemed to surprise everyone in the room except for one who looked at him with a big smile. Edward gave a heavy nod as he said, "Yeah, this is a pure mana crystal."

To Delmar and Naomi, it came as a surprised that William was able to see through it such clearly. To them it looked like a normal big mana crystal but the pictuee was a little blurry so they they didn't even dream about it being the pure kind.

For a pure mana crystal was almost close to legend.

"But this is not even close to what I will show you next."

Edward then changed the photo and started something else. It was a video. The video started to show a few people, a team of frontiers inside a dark cave as they navigated themselves.

The team was the one to find the crystal as they took the photo William and his entourage saw and went deeper inside the cave. Then suddenly the team of frontiers shrieked in surprise as the camera revealed what they saw.

It was a cave filled with such crystals surrounding all its area. A cave filled with pure mana crystals.

Even though William knew that this would happen, but seeing such a thing didn't stop the smile from approaching his face.

"William… this is the future… Our Future."
