Chapter 51 : Nature has it's ways
Perspective : Conrad GarnierWhen you see a guiding light of hope, beyond the darkness of that deep tunnel, blinded by hope and aspiration, do you ever think what hides beside those rays of hope. The light reflecting in your eyes shines so brilliantly that it overshadows that which lurks in the corner, It obscures its origins.Just like moth to a flame, we are lured towards it. Our perception blocked by the sheer illusion of"It's finally over".But when that illusion breaks, what will we see?When reality kicks in, what will we see?As we all regained our consciousness, a wave of apprehension washes over me. Dread filled every fiber of my being as I scanned my surroundings. My heart races, pounding against my chest, as my eyes lock onto the enormous crevice in the floor. It was impossible to look away, drawing me in like moth to a flame. My gaze was fixated on the small, tiny holes that covered its surface, each one resembling an endless void.But the horror didn't end there. As if ea

Chapter 52 : Stranded
Perspective : Emilia Verdora"Where am I ?"."Right ... the floor crumbled, and we fell below?"."Where are the others?".I opened my eyes, only to find myself alone again."Doesn't matter, I was in it alone to begin with"."So, where are we exactly?".I looked around, my vision was limited, "Go figures ... This is below that dark cavern, It only makes sense ... that it's a lot darker".I felt a sensation of heat emanating from my head, accompanied by a gentle pulsation. Instinctively, I extended my hands to investigate, nothing unexpected, I encountered a wet substance. The thought crossed my mind, "Am I bleeding?" The darkness veiled my hands from sight, yet as I cautiously rubbed my fingers together, a distinct lubrication confirmed my suspicion: I was indeed bleeding from my head."More importantly ... how did I survived?"."Or am I the only one?"."I have to find everyone else... Or ... I have to end myself to reset the loop again".Even though it was dark, I felt the cold blad

Chapter 53 : Perspective
Perspective: Thor Gild"Hey! ... Hey! ... buddy ... wake up".I felt jolts, someone was shaking me."Thor Gild.... Thor Gild"."Shit he is bleeding"."Give me that Cloth".I heard a sudden sharp and crisp ripping noise.Opening my eyes proved to be quite a challenge, as if an unseen force was resisting my attempts. Despite my utmost efforts, my eyelids felt heavy and unyielding.Keira's call reached my ears, and I yearned to respond. However, the position of my body restricted any movement, rendering me unable to even part my lips, let alone utter a word.[Maybe he is dead]"You shut up..... can't you see he is still breathing"."Come on man wake up".Keira kept shaking, gradually my sleep induced state weakened.Eventually, I opened my eyes, followed by a throbbing surge of pain on my chest, apparently one of my ribs had been broken, and It was poking against my insides.The pain was excruciating, but I wasn't going to give in, the fact that I was still alive meant Arngrim hadn't give

Chapter 54 : Perspective - II
Perspective : Brandon VlodskyI carefully released the buckle of my belt, separating it from my trousers, and gently encircled it around my fractured right foot."It hurts".That's when Robin asked me,"How are you holding up ?" Noticing the severity of my injury, Robin added, "Your foot seems to be quite swollen." In response, I brushed off his concern, stating, "It's none of your business. I've dealt with worse." Robin quickly apologized, acknowledging his overstep, saying, "I'm sorry, I crossed a line." I replied calmly, "Just remember to be more mindful in the future."(Who does he think he is?)(I don't need is pity)(I don't need anyone's pity)With my fumbling legs, using my great sword as a makeshift cane, I stood up.Thanks to luck, I hadn't suffered much of an injury except for my leg. Because When we fell, the squishy floor beneath my feet absorbed all the impact.And if not for that Idiot Robin who fell right over me , I would be walking just fine.As I raised my gaz

Chapter 55 : Re union
Perspective : Conrad Garnier[Present]Elkdrack exclaimed,"Dammit! I have got leeches on me feets".I replied Sternly,"Just run for now".As we followed the trail of my small fireball, our group cautiously ran towards the next chamber, only to discover a disturbing sight. The entire area was too infested with swarms of leeches. They emerged relentlessly from the very ground beneath our feet, completely enveloping the floor.However, the ceiling in that area had significantly lowered, giving the impression that it was being supported by an unseen force. It was then that I noticed a familiar trace of magic – ice. The ice seemed to be holding the ceiling fragments together. And right before our eyes, a massive chasm stretched out, spanning the entirety of the floor.That's when I heard a voice,"Guys .... mind lending a hand here".As, my gaze shifted in the direction of the voice, my eyes widened in surprise as I saw Yuna,Floating in mid- air on her shimmering wand.Her hands were ou

Chapter 56 : Hypocrite
Perspective : Thor Gild [1 hour earlier]From a distance we could hear metal clashing against each other. Suspecting it was a certain someone, that we had been not very particularly keen on searching, we traced the sound.Gradually, the darkness within the deep chasm subsided while the clash and the eerie hissing sound grew louder, giving the impression that we were approaching the outside or somewhere nearby. As we arrived at the scene, we encountered whom I had suspected: Brandon and Robin. However, with an un suspected guest —the fiend responsible for this mess, that enormous centipede.The clashing noises reverberated through the air as Brandon's sword clashed with the numerous limbs of the centipede. It was a sight to behold, witnessing his sword emanating a deep violet aura. I had never seen him that serious before, except for one other time.It was when I first talked to him, after that party, due to an misunderstanding he was kicked out.It was the same night Conrad got stabbe

Chapter 57 : Clashing against rythmic tides
Perspective : Brandon Vlodsky"Dammit.. Dammit.... DAMMIT!"."Why must this happen over and over again"."Haven't I lost enough!"."Fuck"."History is repeating itself"."God! Do you get a sick pleasure by making me suffer"."But ... Not anymore... I ain't letting it happen again"."You hear me God.... FUCK YOU".Yes, I was terrified of it, but not any more, I stood tall and focused, my hands gripping the hilt of my sword with unwavering strength. As the enormous Centipede lunged towards me, I instinctively adjusted my posture, positioning my feet firmly apart for stability. With my gaze locked onto the creature, my body leaned slightly forward, ready to strike or defend at any given moment.I held my sword with both hands, creating a powerful grip that echoed my determination to save what I had. The weight of the weapon felt reassuring in my hands, its blade endowed in gravity magic, ready for the creature's attacks.With each breath, my muscles tensed, prepared to unleash controlled

Chapter 58 : Awaited death
Perspective : Brandon vlodsky (Nooo!)It happened in an instant . The creature vanished beneath the ground, taking half of Robin along with it, leaving behind only a gaping hole where Robin was last seen.The hole was surrounded by puddles of blood.Except me,Everyone else was left incapacitated, as the creature forcefully launched them into the roots that covered the walls.My sight a blur, dust still settling in, as I heard someone coughing.I attempted to head towards Marcus, but I wasn't able to move my right leg."No .... this can't be happening".As I extended my hands towards my leg, I tightly grasped my feet and dragged myself towards Marcus.The pain shooting through my feet was excruciating, but somehow I mustered the strength to reach him.Marcus's hand was battered, his bones shattered, and blood gushed out from his broken neck as he struggled to breathe.To stem the bleeding, I applied pressure to his neck wound.With a reassuring tone, I said, "Don't worry, lad... you

Chapter 59 : A shadow of the past
Perspective : Conrad Garnier[Present]My hands stuck, my blade ready, yet I was hesitant to strike. The revelation that they are people who I knew stopped me cold in my tracks.Something deep inside me was stopping me from moving my blade."What was it?" Before I knew it, I was transferred to this world, where everything was slower, that it might as well be stopped.Red mist covered my surroundings, that stench, ohh how it called me?That feeling of cleaving.That ferocity which once lurked within me,The sweet beckoning,"Is it the mist?"."Where am I?".It was when I heard that voice which I never thought, would I hear again."It's been a long time nephew!".As I stood amidst the mist, it began to converge into a singular point, shaping itself into what seemed to be a portal. Gradually, the dense mass transformed into a billowing cloud, emitting crimson fumes as it materialized into the silhouette of a figure—a mysterious red shadow.Which was I all to familiar with?A remnant of a

Chapter 60 : Logic conflicts
Perspective : Conrad GarnierI found solace in Brandon's lack of trustworthiness, which provided me with the necessary leverage to justify my actions, as I tried to deal with our turned comrades.But now that everyone knew, Brandon spoke the truth. there was no denying it. The unmistakable red glow from Emilia's hand, entwined in roots, stripped away my leverage. The others were hesitant to raise their blades, knowing that our allies were concealed within those very roots.Someone had to do what was necessary, and that someone was me.Without a second thought, I charged towards those creatures. The human heart is delicate, unaware of when to give up, oblivious to the obvious. They had to be killed for our survival to endure.
