Johan rushes to Jennifer and shakes her gently. "Jennifer."
He opens her eyelids. Her eyes are completely white. Johan understands immediately that she is possessed.
"I gave you my mana shield to protect you from this mana. You came from your dimension, and now you're possessed... my bad luck," he says with deep frustration.
Johan forms a mana ball and squeezes it in his hand. A wave of his aura shatters the invisible mana binding her.
"Jennifer, wake up," he mutters.
He finds wounds on her chest, but dark, root-like structures are already stitching them together. It is her own healing power, active even while she remains unconscious.
Suddenly, Jennifer gasps and tries to stand, writhing in pain. "Johan, I am fine, I am fine. Listen, Jevier is here. He is trying to drink Anni's blood. We can't let him do that. I can fight now."
Johan sees her struggle and knows she is in no condition to continue. He uses his mana and casts a sleep spell on her. She slept back.
"She is better off being unconscious," he decides.
Suddenly, he remembers the powerful surge of mana from the miniature dimension of Arthur. It was coming from Arthur's Timeless Dimension.
He lays Jennifer gently on the bench and runs toward the source of the energy.
He finally locates the dimensional rift, but he cannot pass through it. "Damn it, I can't enter it," he says. Then, a thought strikes him. "Wait, I can use that."
"Trefos Cut Timeless," he casts, making a sharp slashing motion with his hand.
He follows up instantly. "Dark form." His gun comes into his hand.
"Tilespar, enter me to the dimension," he cast a spell.
He attempts to force his way into the Timeless Dimension, but the defensive mana tries to repel him with blinding light. A massive wind and swirling shadows push against him, preventing his entry.
Johan pushes his power to the absolute limit. The force is so intense that his skin starts to peel off. Drops of blood begin to flow, carried away by the violent wind. Yet, his power aura shields him just enough, helping him inch forward.
He is close. He can see inside now.
Through the distortion, he sees Jevier aiming directly at Arthur's head.
Johan raises his gun. With a final roar of effort, he breaks through the barrier and enters the dimension.
He pulls the trigger instantly. A bullet flies straight at Jevier's head. Immediately fell to the ground.
Arthur looks up, hope sparking in his eyes as he sees Johan. It is not just hope for Anni, but hope that they might save the world from the evil races threatening it.
His blood came out of various parts of his body. The skin on his cheeks and face is slightly cracked. His suit is torn in many places. He is panting.
"Why are you risking your life, old friend?" Johan asks, a satirising look on his face. "I gave you Freya. Now you want to make her a widow. Shame on yourself."
"Saving life is the duty of a doctor," Arthur says to Johan, panting heavily.
Johan smiles.
"Tell me about the girl in room 024. Her name is Anni. You saved her?" Arthur asks, his voice desperate.
Anni's face flashes in Johan's mind. He falls silent. "Sometimes doctors can't save lives," he says with a heavy heart.
Arthur understands, "Sometimes situations are not in our hands." Says sadly.
"Also, your fade."Jevier forms a mana ball in his hand and squeezes it. A blue aura spreads from it. Arthur clutches his head in pain, but Johan stands still and silent, merely upset.
Jevier forms a mana ball in his hand and squeezes it. A blue aura spreads from it. Arthur clutches his head in pain, but Johan stands still and silent, merely upset.
Jevier starts to float in mid-air. "Proper amount of pain in her blood. This will be mine." His wound heals rapidly. He throws a mana ball at Arthur, directly attempting to possess him. Another ball hits Johan.
"Stop—aaaaaah!"
Suddenly, Arthur loses control, screaming. His eyes turn white.
He makes a mana ball and squeezes it, using his own power to stop himself so that he does not lose control completely and harm himself.
But the attack does not work on Johan at all. Johan looks at him with anger. "Jevier, the Order restricted Oneirons from harming any human by mana!" Johan shouts at him furiously.
"The Order can't stop me. We are superior to humans. This rule of the world stongs becomes ruler and weaks become slaves. Face your reality. Face your death," Jevier retorts. He shoots at Johan with his gun.
Johan uses his Tilespar and dodges every bullet.
Jevier is frustrated. Suddenly, he shoots a bullet at Arthur.
Johan appears in front of the trajectory and shoots exactly at the bullet, deflecting it.
Jevier furiously shoots multiple bullets. But Johan blocks them with his bullets.
Suddenly, Johan changes his gun's direction and shoots a single bullet at Jevier. It hits Jevier's chest. Jevier cannot use his powers while healing from a deadly attack; Johan knows this.
Johan then forms a mana ball and throws it at Jevier. It explodes on Jevier's body. He falls to the surface. His body looks dead.
"Is he dead?" Johan thinks in his mind. But he knows that the true power comes to him now.
Jevier's body swells, tentacles come from his back, his whole body becomes red, and four eyes appear on his forehead. All of the eyes become white. He is transforming into a monster.
Johan runs toward him and shoots multiple bullets. Nothing works. Jevier attacks him with his tentacles.
Johan dodges the strike. A tentacle crashes into the surface. Johan teleports to the side. He fires again. The bullets hit, but the monster does not stop. Jevier swings another tentacle. Johan blocks with a mana shield, but the force pushes him back. He needs to end this now.
Johan makes a mana ball in his hand. Light comes from him. "Dark form destruction," he casts his spell.
The ball goes into Jevier's body and explodes, stopping his transformation.
His body leaks like a bag of blood. Everything melts down. Only a black skeleton remains. A symbol of the Dark Lord appears on his forehead.
Johan comes to Arthur and releases him from his own mana.
Arthur takes a huge breath. " Johan, what happened? Are you ok?" he asks, taking a breath.
"Rest now, rest now," Johan says.
Suddenly, Arthur sees the black skeleton. "Johan, did you kill him? Is he a vessel of the Dark Lord?"
"Yes…, He was addicted to human blood when they were in pain, which means he is one of the vessels of dark load, Satrin, " Johan replies.
Suddenly, the symbol of the Dark Lord turns red. The surface becomes black. Many souls come out of his body. The black surface swallows them. It takes the observers to a dimension where they can see the memories of Jevier's victims. They see that he killed so many people, even some politicians, to help Mr. Jones. He controlled them, made them suffer, and killed them in multiple cruel ways.
"Johan, are they all the victims that he killed?" Arthur asks Johan.
"I think all of them who are dead. I guess," Johan replies.
"There are no memories of Anni. That means she is still alive. Can we heal her with Jennifer's powers?" Arthur finds hope in the realisation.
The dimension disappears. They come back to the real world.
After some time, Jennifer wakes up. Johan calls her name, "Jennifer, Jennifer."
Jennifer wakes up and punches him in the face. "Let me fight, you idiot!"
"The fight is over," Arthur says, shocked by her anger.
They all rush to room 024. Jennifer looks at Anni sadly. She gently grabs Anni's head with her two hands.
"Rizas cure." Dark roots come from her hand and heal Anni's scars. But Anni doesn't come back to life.
"She is alive... so why isn't it working?" Tears fall from Jennifer's eyes to the face of Anni.
