All over the world in every nation on the planet, people could be seen with genuinely happy expressions on their faces sitting in front of a television inside their homes, bars, pubs, etc, or standing in the streets in front of huge futuristic digital billboards that were government owned.
Most of them were holding banner of a certain sigil and were celebrating along the streets with happy smiles on their faces.
If you took a closer look at some of them, you'll realize that some were levitating off the ground with those around them not particularly surprised at the sight. Some of them had particularly distinct facial features like scales on their necks, some had different-colored eyes with inhuman pupils and some even had extra appendages on their bodies.
All in all, there was a vital change in social norms as with the advent of 'V-Shots' humanity was gradually transforming into other existences and this was because of one man who was the topic and the main occasion of the hour and the reason why the majority had happy faces and were happily staring at any screen available.
On the screens, everyone could see the handsome face of the man who in just months, has changed and was gradually transforming the world. The man who today was about to be crowned and dubbed as the sole ruler of mankind and the Planet Earth.
The man who was known as the world's most powerful, smartest, richest, and by popular opinion the most attractive man on the planet Mr. Virgil Prime.
It was in the afternoon in the heart of the United States Of America. Unlike any other day, the streets were jammed and loud celebrations could be seen and heard all over the place as people moved all over the place with banners and other stuff with intense looks of pride and happiness as they all surrounded 'Prime Stadium'.
A newly constructed futuristic stadium that is arguably the largest stadium ever built in the world. It was a large circular-shaped stadium with a large translucent diamond-like dome covering its top that made the place very unique.
The stadium was packed with large amounts of people from all over the globe seated on the futuristic seats, making the one million carrying capacity seem less as many people were camping outside of the structure since they weren't able to get a spot inside.
Important and famous people such as Billionaires, politicians, actors, musicians, entrepreneurs, etc could be seen grouped at a special section of the stadium. Famous superheroes like Queen Maeve, A-Train, Soldier Boy, etc could be seen near them in professional attire tailored for the occasion.
Every superhero had a seat so you could see all of them seated at their respective seats, professionally dressed with smiles on their faces as numerous drones and cameras flashed at them. If anyone observed, they would notice that Black Noir and the other members of Payback were absent.
Some superheroes and other people noticed this and the really important ones like Queen Maeve just glanced at the smiling Soldier Boy and stopped thinking about it since they knew that it was related to him and that trying to dig in could warrant trouble.
On the carpeted floor of the stadium, leaders of every country could be seen seated in majestic chairs arranged in a wave-like manner in professional garbs that had one uniquely colored flag together with a silver diamond encrusted V-shaped wing-styled sigil that has a star in the middle representing their allegiance to the Prime Monarchy.
Victoria Neuman could be seen seated at the very front beside her Vice Bobby Singer, beautiful dressed in a tailored suit that accentuated her curves with a smile on her face. While everyone had only one sigil on their attire she had two, the other one was similar to the first one but the second star was red, indicating her special status among the leaders present.
Among the smiling leaders, monarchs from countries like Great Britain, Norway, Iran, Saudi and every other country ruled by a monarchy were absent, and in their place were the Prime Ministers. No one commented on it as they engaged in small talk since they all knew why that was the case and the very thought of it terrified them. Basically, a few days ago every royal family together with their King or Queen passed away all at the same time all of a sudden.
Upon examination, it was realized that they were all sick with some form of chronic illness. When the details reached the governments, they all knew what was up and made no comment but instead pretended as if it wasn't something unusual.
Everyone knew something was fish and had an inkling of who was responsible for such a thing but since they were no proof and even if there were, nothing could be done about it everyone just ignored it and threw it aside and instead deduced to put their focus on the upcoming coronation. It was because of this that the day got the nickname 'Royal's Plight' and on the internet, Virgil got the moniker 'Nobles Bane'.
Right in the middle of the stadium was a tall and wide elevated podium, at the side of it the current Pope; Francis Martini, an old man dressed in a white and golden cassock with a white biretta on his head was comfortably seated with some of his clergy with a smiling face.
Suddenly, the dome started parting and revealed a slowly descending figure.
"He's here!"
Someone bellowed, pointing at the figure as he descended and this immediately set the place on fire as the people erupted with crazed cheers and shouting that shook the stadium.
With a dashing smile on his face, Virgil calmly landed on the platform, and when he did everyone who was seated immediately stood up in attention, their faces filled with awe, reverence, and fear as the drones and numerous reporters flashed their cameras on his figure.
His hair was cut short and he was dressed in a futuristic black long-sleeved t-shirt with purple triangular drawings on them that had an arm glove extension and was long enough to reach his knees. He had similar colored and styled pants on with knee-length black combat boots. A large white robe with the Prime sigil on it perfectly hung on his shoulders and complimented his overall looks and eyes, making him more majestic. His athletic and slightly muscular body was perfectly drawn out in his attire and painted a strong image to those watching as he stood before the podium and glanced at the leaders, the screaming audience, and the drones and cameras recording live.
"Please sit."
He said in a calm voice that reached every corner of the place and immediately everyone sat down and kept quiet since it was obvious he had something to say.
When everyone settled down and the whole place became quiet he spoke,
"Today is a joyous day for all humanity and I'm glad to be here today to witness it. For a long time, humanity has been divided and has been unified and this has hindered our civilization as a whole. We have divided ourselves based on color, continent, race, and a whole lot and this has brought a large amount of harm than good."
He paused, making his words settle then continued.
"But from now onwards, all that will change. From now onwards, society isn't going to be divided based on some trivial things like skin color but rather it's going to be based on merit since everyone is going to be a special form of existence."
He added passionately in a manner that made everyone's blood boil and continued in a higher tone.
"From now onwards, no one is going to identify themselves as black, white, yellow, or anything of the sort. Now everyone is and will be a 'NeoHuman' because we are all beyond our previous selves. As I'm taking up this mantle it means we are now one people with one leader who promises to take humanity further and further till we stop improving!"
He exclaimed passionately, making everyone experience goosebumps with some people even tearing up. Everyone could feel some form of energy behind his words that made even their souls feel pumped up. All the people watching from different parts of the globe got this kind of feeling that made them look at the person close to them and in their eyes, they could only see a fellow human not a person of color, tribesman, alien, or even a different gender. All they could see was a fellow human, only human.
"As the first leaders of humanity, you can rest assured that in my hands there will nothing that can stop us and that not even the stars can hinder our progress! From this day forth, I present myself to you as Virgil Prime: The Primus and Empyrean Prime of Humanity!"
Virgil roared, making everyone at the stadium stand up and roar in return with an intense fervor that shook the entire stadium with people all around the globe from Africa to Asia screaming their lungs off.
As the audience screamed, the Pope grabbed a futuristic black-halo-like crown and placed it on his head after coming close to him. The crown perfectly fit on his head, glowed, and started hovering around his head, painting an ethereal image.
"GOD bless the Primus!"
One person passionately screamed.
"GOD bless the Primus!"
"GOD bless the Primus!"
"GO--"
Someone continued and slowly the entire stadium started chanting vigorously, making the whole place spirited as the superheroes and the leaders also joined.
In a few moments, it seemed as if the entire planet was chanting this since everyone watching joined in on the chant and filled the planet with their screams.
Seeing and hearing all this, Virgil smiled and started ascending, making the volume of the chants increase.
"Long Live The Emperor!"
Soldier Boy bellowed and the crowd switched to it and started screaming.
"Long Live The Emperor!"
"Long Live The Emperor!"
"Long---"
It was on this day that the First Emperor of Mankind was born. The Emperor who future generations will remember as the father of Supers and the Herald Of Evolution.
