(Dr. Philip’s POV)I watched the tentacles of the Dreamer wrap around the boy and at that moment, I wanted to rip him apart and I could, with only a mere thought.Without a need to lift my finger, I could rip the child apart and end this once and for all but the Dreamer would expel me as a result.For some reason, it decided that no matter what, it just have the boy.I don’t know why.I have asked and questioned it repeatedly but it didn’t bother to give me an answer for why it chose this boy over me.Me!The same person that had heeded it’s call and had tended to it for so long.The one that had helped it loosen it’s shackles, allowing it to regain it’s powers slowly.The one that brought 200 minds for it to feed on.200 subconscious minds!I was the one that understood it best.When the others saw the Otherworldly as mere monsters to be killed and destroyed, I saw them as a natural process.I was the one that wanted to merge the human subconscious with the body of an Otherworldly!B

(Richard’s POV)It was complete chaos as I watched from my position.I hasn’t expected it to get to such a degree but it happened.Thinking back now, I realize that maybe I hadn’t expected a lot of things.Several things had happened outside of my expectations, completely subverting my understanding of the world.First it hard to do with the girl that dared to talk back to me even when I actively tried to suppress her with my innate talent.It was a first.I would have never expected such a thing yet it happened before my eyes.Then I was confused but thinking back now, I was also quite… excited.I had been searching for so long.Looking for those that would see me for who I am and stand on equal footing with me.I saw such a spirit in Jerry and his group of ragtag friends which was why I joined then even though they clearly showed suspicion toward me.And I was right to have done so.Because of them, I have experienced something that I never thought I would have.Next on my list of u

(Dr. Philip’s POV)Look at them.Pathetic little insects struggling to survive.Struggling to escape their inevitable fate.Oh so pathetic.If only they understood what was in store for them… of course, it’s not like I haven’t given them an inkling.But that’s just how humans are.Even when it looks like there is no hope, they still find some unlikely place to seek hope.Isn’t that how and why the tower was able to stand in it’s position today?Because humanity just couldn’t accept that it was it’s time to fall and decided to carry out a pointless struggle against the natural order of the world.But of course, a hundred years later and they should have realized by now… there was no stopping it.Humanity was doomed and yet… they still fought.Annoying cockroaches!These ones here would only add to the number of insects struggling against providence.It would be an honor to take them out and feed them to my new form.So I descended down, using the sun as a means to project myself into t

(Jerry’s POV)I stared at the squirming flesh of the gigantic brain that was as large as half the academy.It no longer caused me pain, even though there was still a slight headache but at least it was bearable.I pursed my lips and instinctively kept my breathing at a measured pace.Since I was going to die, at least die with some dignity.It’s messed up though… I really didn’t think it would end like this.You… you are a shard.I blinked at the strange way the Otherworldly spoke.Shard?What was it talking about?Contemplating whether I should ask or keep to myself, my curiosity won me over in the end.Since I was going to die, might as well sate my curiosity… I think.“What are you talking about?”Do you not know?“Know what?”Of your special identity“I don’t understand what you are saying.”Ah… I see. You haven’t awakened yet. No wonder you are so weak.“What…” I was left dumbfounded as well as speechless.Unlike my previous conversations with Otherworldly which as basically only

(Richard’s POV)I didn’t know what came over me.All I knew was that I saw the sun seek to destroy us and I shot at it.No, wasn’t it just at Leah?I could have turned and fled immediately, after all, it was a sun!I still recall what was said about the sun.It was a fiery ball of gases that exuded heat encompassing an entire space larger than even the Earth.That was already quite fearsome.Even though this was a fake sun, it didn’t mean that I could just face it head on.So running was the right choice but to where exactly?I couldn’t figure it out.Of course it’s not like shooting it would help.It was a sun!How could a mere gun borne out if the figment of my imagination hope to face off against such a celestial body.But I did it regardless and now as it stared at me, I didn’t know what to do.I was terrified, even more than when I stood before my father otherwise known as the Stark family head.Was it because this time the aura was directed towards me in the form of killing inte

( Jerry’s POV )My mind was a blurry mess.It was hard to concentrate in the darkness that encompassed me.This time it felt quite… warm.Strange.Wasn’t it supposed to be cold?Haha, weird thoughts coming to mind at this point.In any case, what happened?Last thing I remembered was… the Dreamer trying to eat me.I could still recall the fear that kept me from doing anything and the terror that threatened to drive me mad.So where was this?The afterlife?But then why was it so similar to the darkness I was familiar with?Hmm, does that mean the darkness that I’m familiar with is the afterlife?So that means I’ve always known that I was going to die subconsciously?Wow, is that possible though?I felt unsure but then again, I’m already dead so there’s no need to sweat the details.I wonder if I’d be able to see dad here.What would I say to him if u met him?I’m sorry I failed?I’m sorry I couldn’t complete your goal?I’m sorry I was so weak?There’s a lot to apologize for and a lot

(Jerry’s POV)“Look at you brats.” Captain Rodger’s could only take a step back faced with such hostility. “I understand why you guys would react like this. Jerry did save you but then again, going against your superior is not exactly a smart thing to do, don’t you agree.”“We can take the punishment.” Reginald spoke first. “But let Jerry rest.” Captain Rodger’s seemed to be in a dilemma as he rubbed his temples while muttering something. “You guys need to understand that this isn’t a simple meeting.”“What do you mean?” I asked out of pure curiosity.The answer I got however was outside my expectations.“The Twelve Heads.” The atmosphere in the hospital room quickly cooled down as fast as it got heated up.Those that were protecting me a moment ago began to hesitate as perspiration flowed out of their skin pores.Obviously they were terrified.Who wouldn’t be considering the status of the Twelve Heads.Beings akin to gods, they were not to be trifled with.Even their children would

I shook in my bed, terrified by the fact that I might up dying because of what I had done.I instinctively tried to get away but where could I go with my body all messed up?Best I could do was move around a bit and even that was pointless.For a moment, I regretted agreeing to meet with these guys.I should have known they’d think of something so crazy.Darn it, I need to flee!Just as I was about to consider means to run, Captain Rodger’s remarked. “I believe this meeting wasn’t convened to question my student on his identity. I’m sure we can all agree that he is a human with enough potential to destroy an A-grade Otherworldly while still not having taken the potions to become an Explorer.”“Hmmph, look at this bastard. Because Hamilton has given you some power you really think you can stand on the same level with us?“Are you delusional or something?”Of course he was quickly berated for daring to interfere.I never had any hope in him helping me.He was just a mere instructor afte
