Chapter 210: The Course of History
And this lack of care and monitoring ultimately led to the current deficiency of manpower in the SSWJ which resulted in many paranormal events and special people escaping the eyes of this top-secret organization as most of their employees had resigned without any replacements for the lost personnel.

"L, check this out!" A bare-assed girl who was playing with her phone stark naked on the right side of a nude man called Eliot uttered. At the moment, on the screen of her phone, a short clip of a man with burning fists was displaying.
"Sigh, Sara, come on… don't just believe whatever you see over the internet! I bet that's just some kind of photoshopping or something." Hearing Sara's words, instead of Eliot, another uncovered girl from the left side of the nude Eliot voiced after letting out a short sigh.
"Hana, if it was just this one, of course I would not have believed it. But, there are so many more short videos of people with strange powers uploaded over the internet these days… how can all of them be fake?" Sara proclaimed in some dissatisfaction.
At this point, Eliot's attention was finally drawn a bit as he muttered, "What are the other viewers saying about these strange clips?"
Seeing his interest piqued a little at last, a grin showed up on Sara's face as she went on, "Most people say they're all fake. Though there are also some people who're commenting and saying that they are real and that they've seen it with their own eyes. There are even some remarking that they have had superpowers since birth, but they've kept it a secret. Anyway, it's a total mess right now."
Listening to her best friend's explanations, Hana asserted, "You guys can't possibly believe them, alright? Think about it, if people with superpowers existed, why would no one know about them until now? And why is it that just when the world turned strange and the apocalypse arrived, people like that are popping out here and there?"
Listening to this, Eliot's eyes began to oddly shine with an intense light as he speculated excitedly, "Ah… maybe… like in those novels, this is the aftereffect of the apocalypse which is slowly transforming mankind and granting them superpowers by mutating them! Ahhh… This might even result in them turning more resistant to Mutated HIV! Could this be the new hope of humanity? A new era?"
Hearing this, flabbergast, both of the girls' eyes went wide open as they looked at each other in silence before no longer being able to control it anymore as they let it out, "Pffff… hehe… L, that was really funny! How would Aids transform us, hehe…"
"Come on! Stop laughing you two! It could be real. Who knows, maybe the Mutated HIV differs from the normal type and it has the power of affecting and ultimately transforming us! If not this, what else could it possibly be? And why would these strange videos start to pop up all of sudden now?" With some lights of seriousness passing through his eyes, Eliot began elaborating.
After laughing for a while, Sara revealed her own speculation, "Actually, one of the netizens proposed something which I trust it is highly possible-"
"What is it?" With an 'I still believe in my own assumption' attitude, Eliot queried together with a small frown.
A profound light twinkled inside Sara's eyes as she answered earnestly, "That netizen proposed that the world has been tightly keeping these kinds of news from the eyes of common people. I mean, he proposed there must be some kind of hidden organization in the world which is responsible for this! And the odd thing is that it wasn't just that netizen suggesting this but a few others too! There was even one of them saying she had previously worked at such an organization, though I'm not stupid enough to believe that."
"Tch… that's even more far-fetched than my theory! Either all of this is fake, or my speculation is the right one!" Stated Eliot in some anticipation.
"Ai… who cares which one is true or wrong. What does it have to do with us? We're still going to die in a year anyway." At this time, Hana who thought all of this was fake mumbled while wearing an emotionless face which in return made both Sara and Eliot shut up.
Seeing the atmosphere change into a depressing one, Eliot's face abruptly transformed into a mischievous one as he uttered with an evil smile before jumping on them, "Whatever… I don't care! What I care is that you two forced yourselves on me… ah, I was so innocent back then. Now, it's time for payback and revenge! Let this daddy ride and ravage the both of you to my heart's content! Haha…"

Currently, Virus was sitting on the couch as he took a sip of the glass of red wine on the table from time to time while deliberating to himself silently, 'Hmm... a day passed, but even while utilizing the Synchronous Transformations Crystal together with the dark dragon revolving method, I'm still stuck at the initial phase of the Altering The Flesh. I estimate I would need at least a weak before breaking through from the second level. Heck, I should've been faster than this… but it seems instead of accelerating the process, the dark dragon revolving method is making the speed decrease! It seems in order to hasten the process, I would need to use that-'
However, at this point, the silence inside the room was broken by a certain golden beauty, "Master, have you checked the internet since we came back? Did you see those videos of people displaying their abilities in public?"
Hearing this, snapping out of his contemplation, an amused look showed up on Virus face as he replied with a small grin, "Yeah… don't you think the world's becoming much more interesting now?"
But although he said that out loud, internally, he began thinking to himself, 'My influence has outright changed the entire course of history altogether… it can no longer be called a butterfly effect… it's more like a whole new butterfly altogether? Nothing will be the same from now on and even I don't know what all of this will lead to. Did I do the right thing by interfering? Hahaha... that question was funny since I don't really care if it was right or wrong. What I care is if it would make the world more entertaining from now on.'
Before releasing the Mutated HIV to the world, by introducing the Virus Industries alone to the world, Virus had begun a massive butterfly-effect on the history itself as that had directly or indirectly changed a lot of events. However, after releasing the Mutated HIV, that had utterly changed the direction of everything!
One of the massive alterations that will take place from now on is that people who should've died by an accident or another cause might live, while other people that should've originally lived a long time might die. So in short, the time of death had changed for almost everyone!
This also meant that people would also give birth to whole new children to the complete opposite of the previous future since the timing of everything had been already altered.
And these results simply represented the fact that the entire course of history from now on will be different… utterly!
