The Divine Dissimulation [Complete]

Chapter 42 The Resurrected Abraham Faces Problems.

Abraham was floating in the vast darkness of the afterlife. This place was timeless, and he did not mind being here at all. Abraham was clinically dead and with the death came the separation of the ego and the soul. In the distance he could hear the calling "Master Abraham can you hear me" The calling became louder and eventually Abraham woke up in the Divine Control Centre experiencing excruciating pain. His vision and hearing were blurred, but he perceived that Lucifer and few of his angels were with him, next to a cryogenic tank. Abraham tried to call out, but he could not make a sound. A flash of light struck his eyes, and he was back in the Divine Dimension.

Lucifer:

-          Master Abraham, can you hear me?

Abraham:

-          Yes, I can hear you. What happened?

Lucifer:

-          You died, Master. You have been clinically dead for a year.

Abraham:

-          What! How did this happen?

Lucifer:

-          I was not there to see it, but Nuriel said your relatives' betrayal, and the deaths of Malphat, Hashmallim, Seraphim, and Ishmael, was too much for you, so you died from grief.

-          When I woke up, your body was beyond saving, but your brain was still preserved due to the near absolute zero temperature of the cryogenic tank.

-          We had to replace your body with a robotic body, and the only part of you that remains is your brain.

Abraham:

-          I see. How come I have been dead for a year though?

Lucifer:

-          Well because of the difficulty getting the necessary equipment as a private citizen on Earth. We considered it to be suicidal to land on Antarctica asking House Goldstein. We did not dare to approach the other significant factions, as we were unaware of the current allegiances on Earth. We scouted the black market for the necessary equipment. Through earnest effort, we acquired the hardware, mainly through luck. As it turned out we had some untouched bank accounts from our secret operations 25 years ago.

Abraham:

-          I see. Thank you very much Lucifer, you are a great man.

Lucifer:

-          Thank you very much, Grandmaster Abraham.

-          Unfortunately, there is a complication.  We are broke. In your absence, we haven’t been able to find a way of funding the Eden project. Without funding, we will not be able to buy the necessary spare parts to properly support Eden.

Abraham:

-          I feared as much. Leave it with me Lucifer, I will find a solution. I didn’t become the wealthiest man in the solar system for nothing!
