He fell to the portal; the darkness of the portal's expansion beyond his vision could reach; the ringing sound echoed in his ear. He turned his gaze above him, as his body was upside down, the light above.
The light dimmed; below the light widened and shone brighter suddenly; Liatart opened his eyes.
The forest is dark; the death leafs cover the ground. The tree is tall as a mountain, covering the sky like an umbrella
His vision blurred; when the can see things clearer, Liatart looked around. He walked around.
The forest was eerily too quiet. Only the sound of his footsteps and the cracking sound of branches he stepped on were the only sounds to break the silence.
He then sat down near a tree as the sun set. He closed his eyes.
As he slept, he dreamed of the massive hand and the moving object in the sky, Liatart with a golden poleaxe piercing through his shoulder, kneeling down as his body weakened, blood flowing around is body, a figure appeared in his blurry vision. His hand covered his eyes. Suddenly silent, he slowly heard the sound of his heart beating,
Liatart's heart raced, his body sweating, his head turning left and right aggressively. he then woke up, stood up, and looked around
Liatart took a few steps back. then use his magic and blasted a part of the forest to ashes; he punched the tree. And used his magic, but this time he threw it to the sky. A loud and big shockwave echoed throughout the forest.
He kept on going. Then he exhausted all of his magic. The forest burned, then silent return.
He was breathing heavily as his pain started to feel painful. Liatart stood up and ran with all his might.
Liatart: Something, show me something. why there aren't anything moving?
He then used the teleportation magic; the magic took him into the place that full hill and tall grass.
He then opened his eyes and stood up. He looked around, then at the corner of his eye. He saw a house. He kept looking at it
Then suddenly the front door opened. A couple with two kids walked out of the house.
He fell down to his knees. and sobbing
Liatart: Oh. Please no,
Then suddenly, he heard laughter. his eye widen. He stood back up. The two children were running, chasing each other. The father then called for them to stop.
The wife then stood up and walked inside the house, as one of the children followed her.
Liatart looking. His teardrop fell to his chin.
Liatart: They alive? They actually normal?
Back to the present day.
Liatart is still sitting down, looking at the fire.
Liatart: Hmmm, at least this world is actually alive. Much more alive.
In the capital, the army is mobilizing around the capital
In a bar, 3 men sat down and chatted. They saw a bunch of soldiers running from place to place. One of the men then told his friend, " The capital is filled with these people; everything is completely chaotic. " he then turned his gaze to his friend.
The friend's face turned pale, his lips dry and his eyes red. He scratched his hand aggressively,
The man grabbed his shoulder; in worry, his smile dropped; he looked at him, "Hey, are you alright? You're so pale"
The friend stood up; he grabbed the man's hand, then let go and ran away.
Outside of the bar, the man suddenly heard a crowd of people shouting at the soldier,
Suddenly, General Ulman arrived. " What is going on"
The soldier: We do not know yet, General.
Then one of them suddenly jumped and pushed the soldier down. Ulman saw this and gave them an order to arrest all of them.
they struggle against them.
After this, the soldier tested their blood. The soldier ran to Ulman
The Soldier: General. All of these people they all are drug addicts. general
General Ulman: Take them to prison and question them.
Ulman then turned around; another commander arrived.
The Commander greeted Ulman and gave Ulman his report
General Ulman: Did you manage to find this person?
The Commander: No. We haven't yet, General. But I do believe one of the local companies is involved with it
Ulman gripped the report in his hand, closed his eyes, and took deep breaths. Ulman looked at the Commander.
General Ulman: I know this is also urgent, but I want you to deliver this report to General Tranor right the way.
The Commander's hand grabbed the report as Ulman gave it back to him
The Commander: But General, it will take days for him to respond.
Ulman, puase, he grabs the report
General Ulman: Alright, I'll head there, but I need to look after the situation here.
The Commander: Understood, General.
As the capital is full of soldiers, in the middle of the capital, under the big bright linking deep into a tunnel, the sound of a bunch of people came deep within.
A man ran in the long tunnel; the sound of his footsteps echoed as he ran. Then he arrived at the wider space of the tunnel
A massive crowd gathered. He looked to his left; a big group of people are gathering together, punching and pushing; some were even falling down and getting stepped on.
On his right, another big group of people was smoking,
Some are carrying a bag of stuff on their back, and some are barely dressed.
Then suddenly another man was sprinting and pushing others out of his way as he continued to run
Someone suddenly pushed from the side; the man fell down, his knee bruised and red, breathing heavily. Multiple people walked toward him,
With his blurry vision, he desperately stood with his weakening body. Those people then rush toward him.
He then got up and continued running; they then shouted at him and walked away. He then arrived at another large room, where there are moultiple carriage.
A bunch of people swarmed these carriages in the dark.
they push and squeezed each other to get closer to the carriage; however, he noticed a lot of hand that raised to the carriage's seller, holding a bag of at the size of his hand, his panicingly reach to his coin bag, his was not as fill up as their does. He hesitated. He paused, staring at the crowd fighting each other to buy the goods
He gripped his hand and ran toward the crowd, but suddenly a group of people approaching him stopped him. He fell backward, and a coin bage fall of his hand. then immediatly rush to grab it, but the man in the group grabbed it first.
His hand is broad, muscular, and well-crafted armor he wears. Others are well-equipped. Their swords are more detailed and well-kept and shine brighter than the other that also had swords.
He then turns his gaze to the right, to a group of people who also had weapons, and a magic user immediately looks away the moment they notice he looks at them.
Then the man with big armor takes a step toward him. His body pauses, frozen; his eyes struggle to look away
Then he throws the coin bag at his face and tells him, "Take this coin back and get out of here"
The man with big armor looks at him; his bare feet are dirty, his skinny body and cloth covered in mud, and his hair is messy. " Even if you rob your family's entire fortune it not enough to buy you a small piece of the drug," he turned around and walked away.
Then suddenly, a horrifying scream shattered the chaotic place to silent. A man lying face down, blood dripping out of his face. A man with armor holding a sword, looking at all of them, with blood dripping from the tips of his sword.
The Merchant: Listen, you petty scum, if you can't afford it, then get out of here.
A random addict: What are you talking about? I pay you triple for this small piece.
Suddenly, a group of people with armor and swords, spears, and a magic user step in front of the carriage. The merchant looks at them
The Merchant: Then get out of here, then. I'll take the goods to the company instead.
Then suddenly multiple people lift their coin bags and yell, "No wait, take all of it; just give it to me"
