The shade looked down the dark hole the humans were staring at just now, and after recalling his memory correctly, the Altandian who lured them here successfully assembled the story that would be told.

“Yes, I’m not wrong… It must have been twenty years ago.” Thinking of those days the shady Altandian felt nostalgic, yet at the same time, an uneasy feeling consumed him.

“I was frightened by the sudden appearance of the small creature. You might be guessing that we didn’t meet here on Alphilia. After all, my kind came here around eight years ago. Still, I was really fascinated by the amount of power this little creature had. The top of its short hair reached my stomach. But what really is of interest is something else. The first human I saw was a male. Scared of the unknown being before me, I attacked the human…”

    Many footsteps were heard from the entrance of the cave.Col’Ar looked at the rocky entrance and thought “They have spotted me. Quick, hide, human!”A few hasty steps and they found the perfect cover behind big and old stalagmites. Col’Ar whispered, “Pray they don’t have heat sensors…” and turned off the lighting device.The footsteps from the invaders were louder, which meant they were now close. Though as much as Godfrey looked at the cave’s entrance, nobody was there. It was pitch-dark and no light would reflect from any surface to reveal any objects.Col’Ar realized the enemy had cloaking devices and tried to activate his heat sensor. As the suit with too many tools was connected to his mind, he realized th

    Time had passed. Col’Ar and Godfrey found refuge in a mountain far away from the battlefield. It was a no-war zone. They were in a large building resembling a monastery. In a way it was. The residents were all spiritualists. Mages who were adept in meditation, self-conscience, and wisdom. Most importantly - it was one of the few places left that held onto ancient Altandian knowledge.The ability of a human to walk into this sacred realm wasn’t liked by any of the residents there. None of them had seen a human, but the grand monk recognized the species. He knew something, though maybe nobody would ever really know what exactly.Col’Ar really felt suspicious about how the grand monk could know of the existence of humans.The monks wouldn’t accept soldiers. War was the most foolish thing for Alt

    The monk spoke, "Can we call our accomplishments 'progress' if we have no goal? Are they not just random specs of dust in the cosmic space then? If that makes your effort and life meaningless, a remedy to that is to simply set a final goal. Then each step taken shall be called 'progress', as a step of the ladder has been climbed… That is what your ability is fundamentally lacking."“How come?”“It is as you said. Abyss… is deep. Too deep. So much that neither Altandian nor human minds would capture within their apprehensive abilities. Call it… ‘infinite’...”Godfrey nodded and waited for more. So far he didn’t discover anything new.The grand monk drank from his tea once more and made a hand gesture, inviting

    The shade turned towards the lot that was listening to them until now.“That is how I became what you see now. I do not regret it, but I have been corrupted beyond salvation.”Azazel was smart to ask, “Why? Doesn’t the bond still work?”Col’Ar was silent for a while, and then replied, “The bond is long gone.”Andrey felt a rush and was quick to question, “Does this mean Godfrey is dead!?”No reply came, “Tell me!” Andrey yelled.“The bond… has been severed. Not by death.” the shade replied.“What does that even mean!?” Andrey yelled o

    "C-confess what?" Dea'n'ha wondered, stuttering."When I say my hand hungers… Something strange is happening. I am starting to black-out. I feel the need to drain Col'Ar like I drained Levi the Necromancer… Aluca's father." Andrey explained.Niko looked at him and felt an uneasy feeling, "I just want to feel reassured, there's no chance you're gonna come at us, right?"The cross-bearer didn't reply. Instead, he insisted, "Just follow me and let's make this quick. I don't know what will happen to me if this feeling goes on."Andrey started walking very fast while holding onto his right arm. He felt like it was burning. It needed something, and it would deliver punishment if it didn't receive it.

    “Wake up! Wake up! Andrey, pull yourself together! Listen to me! Can you hear me?”A voice resonated in the hollow darkness.“I need you to listen to me!”The man’s voice once more cried out.Who is this? Where am I?Andrey looked around.Unable to find his body, only his voice existed by speaking his thoughts. “Where are my arms?”“I can’t… look around.”The man’s voice once more yelled out, “Andrey!”Who is yelling?

    Ah. That… Kind of hurt. Andrey thought as he rubbed his right shoulder, which took a good deal of the impact damage.He stood up and looked around, finding himself in a blue forest fire. That's my magic power. I am sorry for the trees, but if I hadn't released a big deal of it to push myself and fight against gravity, I would be a real riddle to the medical experts.He felt okay. The numb pain in the shoulder wasn't too great. In fact, it was already fading away.Andrey took a deep breath and walked out of the dying down blue fire. As he advanced down the mountain, he spotted a red light blinking in the sky. That, along with the sound it made, convinced Andrey it was a helicopter. "Probably the ne

    “I am sorry for the inappropriate question, but as I look at your outfit, I am wondering what kind of gold you might be speaking about. This is not some sort of joke, right?” The receptionist lady asked.Andrey smiled, realizing that it does look like a bizarre situation, and decided that the best proof for his intentions was to show her the gold.“Here,” he said, and took a gold coin out of his pocket.“Wow.” she grabbed it in her hand and studied it closely, “I have never seen something like this…”Andrey chuckled and teased her, “You wouldn’t believe me if I told you it came from another world, would you?”She gave

    “Immortal douche, my ass.” Amryr’s voice sounded behind the cracking noise.Andrey could see only darkness after the shattered mirror-like world of Golehanei’s game, his young student being his light in the confusing, lightless tunnel.Inhaling deeply, Andrey opened his eyes. The sight of the ancient being rotting right in front of him was the answer to the many questions that had just arisen. A black-and-white splash of energy cracked open the shell just seconds after Lord Red Eye’s awakening.“Amryr…” Andrey whispered.The loyal follower’s contrasting mana widened, making a splash, completely opening half of the shell.“Well, what can I say? The shell grew a lot from the moment that Golehanei noticed we had an ace up our sleeve.” Onyx smiled.Andrey’s eyes wandered from person to person, landing lastly on Dea’n’ha.“I see. Your eye technique. But… what happened?” Just as he spoke, a strange tingle in his right palm pulled his gaze. “The Abyssal Crack Magic… It resonated…” As he obs

    Oh, great! If I get his characters killed before mine die, then I’ll be the obvious winner, won’t I? Does this mean that I won’t die even if my Main Character dies? If I win first, then the game is over, right? The Thief Class struggled as his neck cracked multiple times due to the twist he did on his own. The opposing Knight Class screamed in an angry tone, “This is a living abomination! Die!” Seeing how The Thief Class’ body wouldn’t let go of the mighty sword, punches started raining on his face. The armored gloves dealt a lot of damage to the poor Thief Class, but it didn’t really matter. He had no mind left to notify him of the pain. All he had was one thing - desire to kill.

Yeah, like hell, this one’s gonna take you down even the better. “Round Two. For this round you may pick only two cards. Mage Thief Knight UNAVAILABLE CARDS: Demon Maiden”

Somehow I am seeing both what she sees and what I see as well. How does the human brain even manage to endure the simultaneous cognition stress? // Letters in BOLD are the main character’s telepathy to Andrey// My Master, what shall I do now?

    261. The game begins

    Conjured by nothingness in the air, five cards appeared, twice the size of a human. The terrain reshaped and all of a sudden, it appeared that Andrey was standing in a theater. Looking around, he could see many empty seats, but more importantly, the scene was incredibly vast. The things that were easily seen were a well in the middle, a tower next to it, a few chairs along with a wooden table. They seemed rather medieval and old, but that seemed to be the idea behind the whole game. Playing a medieval role in a theatrical scenery. “We already started!? How about you tell me what the game is about first, eh!?” Andrey shouted, his eyebrows narrowed due to his annoyance. Golehanei’s voice replied to him with a cold tone. “Be not so rushful, Andrey Makiya… de

    Besides the sound of an incoming wind torrent, Andrey appeared like a black thunder, piercing through the clouds, right after jumping off from the conjured black-and-white tower. After restoring his vision past the clouds, he immediately navigated at the ancient human, who was patiently waiting in his cradle. Swinging just slightly. A massive barrage of a hundred walls of rock erupted from the ground, creating a mighty shielding to protect Golehanei from the incoming battle-mage. The rumbling noise in addition with the ancient being’s impatience slowly arising worked as proof that Andrey had been passing through his defense effortlessly. A sword landed right next to the ancient’s throat. Stopped not by Andrey’s will, but instead by the incredibly precise and strong grip of Golehanei’s finger tips.

    Andrey put on a little smile in an attempt to mock the man, who claimed to be greater than them. “Does the superior being deal with conflicts with force or with wisdom? Time we found out, I say.” He expected his taunting words to provoke the being, and at least see an eyebrow get narrowed, but instead Golehanei spoke calmly. “Young Andrey Makiya, when wisdom finds its end, the forces of power take over. Such would seem to be the case, descendant.” A fist coming straight at Andrey’s face was immediately countered as the red-eyed battle-mage deflected the incoming knuckles by punching his opponent’s arm in the triceps with an upper-cut. Although unexpected, suddenly Golehanei forced his arm downwards, overpowering the fist, in an attempt to strike Andrey’s head, as if to slash it with a blade.

    “Dea’n’ha!” Andrey startled at the sorceress. “Y-yes!” She replied in a frail voice. “Can you communicate with this golden-dressed freak!?” Dea’n’ha lowered her head and spoke. “I can only convert information with my Abyssal Crack magic… I can’t really drain the language abilities out of it. It’s like attaining something from the void.” “Tsk.” Andrey clicked his tongue and looked at the buffed, half-naked man, who had only black pants, golden belt, and a golden collar that went all the way from his neck to covering half his back and chest. The ancient human had a golden ring on his left pointing finger, and dark brown leather bracelets with gold imbued in them on both his wrists.
