The Epic of Leviathan (A Mutant's Ascension)

[POV Reo]

"It is proved that the theory is working and we would be able to destroy his mind methodically" Momo said and pointed towards a Pensieve, but it wasn't a normal Pensieve, it had a few more runes than the normal ones. ​​

I carefully looked at the Pensieve before looking towards Momo. "So, how does this thing work?" I asked her curiously. I also noticed that En Sabah Nur was trapped with some kind of modified Meta-Human Suppressors.

"I am glad that you asked…" Momo beamed in happiness. "Like any other Pensieve it lets you view a person's memories but for this one, you don't need to pull out memories from a person… with the help of this rune" Momo paused for a moment and pointed towards a rune on the Pensieve. "It can play someone's memories directly after it is connected to a person like it is connected now through this rune" Momo once again paused and pointed to another rune but this rune was glowing.

"Ok, now that's not the main function of this Pensieve… with the help of these runes" Momo paused and trailed her finger over seven runes. "We will be able to edit the mind and memories according to our wish and the best thing is that the owner of memories won't even know that his memories were being tampered with… he will find everything normal after we are done with him…" Momo finished with a huge grin on her face.

Momo was always like this when she invented something new, no matter how small it was. I started to pat Momo, this seemed to make her even happier, she beamed with a smile and pulled me into a passionate kiss. Only after a few seconds, she allowed me to separate. After separating from me Momo pulled Natasha into a hug.

"Natasha you don't seem excited" I asked Natasha who seemed to be fidgeting within Momo's arms. Momo stopped hugging Natasha and looked carefully at her. Momo finally noticed the uneasiness in Natasha and she was immediately worried.

"Natasha if you don't want then we can stop it… you don't need to get his powers" Momo spoke in a caring and reassuring tone. "Sorry, I was so excited I kind of ignored your decision… after all, your decision is going to be most important here" Momo grabbed Natasha's hand and spoke in a reassuring tone.

"Oh… no! It's not that! I am just nervous, to be honest, I also want powers like all of you… who doesn't?" Natasha immediately tried to diffuse the misunderstanding. "Well, something could go wrong and I am nervous because of that" Natasha finished in a hurry and Momo finally understood what Natasha meant and pulled her into another hug.

"Oh… Natasha, don't worry, I will not let anything happen to you… I will not do anything to risk your life" Momo said in a caring tone and continued to hug Natasha. Natasha wasn't used to things like that but it was clear that she was getting used to it.

"Ok, now enough sassy stuff. Let's edit his memories" Momo said finally separating herself from Natasha. I remained completely silent while this was going on… I allowed the girls to sort out their emotions.

"Yes, and don't worry Natasha nothing will happen to you and you will be completely fine" I said with a reassuring smile and patted her shoulder. Natasha nodded her head in a confident manner and a small smile graced her face.

"Both of you come here" Momo said and made us stand on either side of her. We sat down and Momo activated the memories. Momo used the 3rd projector mode to view the memories… it wasn't a common feature but there were some people back in the HP World who liked to use Pensieves with this mode.

The first memories were really blurry… we kind of expected that. After all, all of us remember some of our childhood memories. Yes, our memories would be a lot cleaner but we were using Occlumency for that but unfortunately, En Sabah Nur wasn't a master Occlumens. The years passed and we saw that En Sabah Nur was finally discovering his powers and their full potential. He was already being worshipped as a God.

We quickly found out that En Sabah Nur wasn't at fault here. These people made him what he was… at the beginning, En Sabah Nur was scared and didn't know what to do but slowly he came to the understanding that he must be a God. When everyone around you would claim that you are a God then you will obviously start to think that you are actually a God.

We saw how En Sabah Nur got his first group of loyal followers… the first group of 4 horsemen. He bestowed power to them and through mental manipulation, he was able to gain their undying loyalty. We saw how En Sabah Nur created a civilization… made it grow and when the population grew too much he destroyed the Civilization and killed everyone and moved on to a new place along with his 4 horsemen… En Sabah Nur believed what he was doing was right and he was a God who should guide humans.

We finally saw that En Sabah Nur was growing old… and he hated that so he started to research his own powers and when he found out about his powers of Essence Transference he started to make his tomb… the same golden pyramid from where we found him buried. When he was ready to change his body for the first time he was more than 110 years old…

The first person he changed body with was a meta-human with Regenerative Healing Factor. After gaining his new body he stopped aging, we saw all of his life… we continued to watch his life like a movie. Whole 5000 years worth of memories… everything in his life was completely repetitive. When his horsemen would grow old he would replace them with a new group. After that, he would build a civilization, help them grow, and when the population reached a certain limit then he would kill everyone and destroy the civilization. After that, he would move on.

When he would find an interesting meta-human he would use any means to get his body for himself. We saw him do that throughout his life. Like I have said just his life was completely repetitive… get new followers, build a civilization, destroy the civilization and then move on and for a break take a new body. That was his whole life story… really disappointing. After watching memories of two hundred years we put it on a fast forward… the memories finally finished playing.

"Well, that was very disappointing" Momo deadpanned.

"Yes, we thought we got to see a lot of history… he never did something new" Natasha said with a frown on her face.

"He was also a coward… did you notice the reason why he didn't have a child?" I asked the girls and both of them nodded. En Sabah Nur didn't have his own offspring throughout his 5000 years of extremely long life. Publicly he said that he was a God and it was beneath him to procreate with a mortal woman… he didn't want to lower his progeny but the truth was completely different… he was afraid, he was scared that his offspring might turn out to be his equal. Then he would have to allow his offspring to rule beside him… he didn't want to have that. He wanted to be the sole ruler of Akkaba or Ancient Egypt.

"At the beginning, he might have believed that he was a God but he definitely found the truth when he was dying of old age" Natasha spoke in complete disdain.

"Yes, makes you wonder how fucked up ancient times were" I said in an amused tone and both girls nodded and all three of us burst out laughing.

"Well, enough about that… let's start with his childhood memories" Momo said and activated the memory modification runes. She first started to delete his childhood memories… it was a long process and Momo needed my magical reserves to complete the process. I happily allowed her to use my huge magical reserves. It took us 5 hours to completely destroy all of his memories and personality…

Some might say that emotions and memories are different things and I agree that they are completely different but they depend on each other. A person's personality also depends on memories. If you get rid of a person's memories he will lose his sense of being… meaning his personality. He will still have his emotions but he won't act on his emotions as he did before when his memories were completely intact.

We only left the memories of how to train and use his powers, they were completely insignificant to what made En Sabah Nur. Technically En Sabah Nur was already gone… the body in front of us was currently the shell of En Sabah Nur… he reviewed the memories once again and found that they were perfect.

"Nat, turn off the Meta-Human Suppressors" Momo said with complete concentration on the shell of En Sabah Nur. Natasha didn't seem to mind that Momo used her nickname which was first used by Nemuri. Natasha nodded her head and turned off the Meta-Human Suppressors. We wanted to check if his memories would start to come back or not… there was a very small chance of that happening but neither me nor Momo wanted to take the chance.

Both me and Momo kept watching the memories carefully, we wanted to notice even the smallest change but even after 30 minutes there was no change… we finally agreed that we were successful.

"Looks like the first stage of Project Natasha is finally over" Momo said releasing a long sigh, Momo named this Project Natasha?? I turned to look at Natasha who could only smile at me wryly... looks like that she also didn't like that the Project was named after her...
