Hina’s Perspective
______________________
“Drink it? Are you nuts? I don’t even know what’s inside this bot-...”
“Some rocks that I plucked out from the golems, ginger, blue crystals, salt, pepper, a little bit of faerie dust, and - the secret ingredient - mana herbs. What you lack is mana. That’s what my alchemist class tells me. When you’ve faced a life-threatening scenario, you’ve controlled your powers before. Am I correct?”
I nodded.
“Did you feel something when you conjured those walls?”
Doctor Maruki hit the nail. When Aoi fought the Grim Reaper, I supported him at the back lines. He had a sniper, while I had just found out that I could summon walls out of nothing. An
Prime Minister of Japan - Yoshitsugu Akihiko’s Perspective (This will happen one month where we have left the main story) ______________________________ It had been days since the first time Akai and I held conferences, meetings, and conversations about portals. But no matter how hard I tried explaining it to the Crimson Guild, Akai and Kei - the guild master and the appraiser, always said the same thing. “We want power. Give me the jurisdiction to promote law and order as an official in the government of Japan, and I shall give our people protection,” Kei stated, as he pounded fist on the table. Akai hadn’t arrived yet for our meeting, so Kei was responsible for communicating with me and other officials. I g
Prime Minister of Japan - Yoshitsugu Akihiko’s Perspective____________________________________________The Dragon’s Den was a portal that recently emerged near Simuda. According to my secretary, the portal was around Tokyo, specifically Tokyo skytree. It devoured everyone surrounding it, including my daughter. Her classmates invited her to visit such a place without my permission. Although I had eyes and ears near her, my people couldn’t react in time and got transferred inside the distortion. Nobody else knew that my daughter was there, excluding the people that were brought inside the portal. And as stated by Akai, communications were severed. It only meant that we didn’t have any means of communicating with the people trapped inside the portal.Akai explained everything related to The Dra
???? Perspective______________________Even though I had killed his parents, that brat still continued on living. I wanted HIM to be vengeful and feel hatred just like me. I lost my parents. And I knew that was the only way for that boy to get stronger and strike his revenge for me.But regardless of my attempts, that boy didn’t fall into his doom. It was as if someone had pulled him back up and was a completely different person than me. He wasn’t someone I had thought that kid would be. After all I did to him - killing his parents and giving hints where to find me, I never broke the lad’s spirits. Well, I knew that was bound to happen. That boy was someone I knew too well.Even so, I still needed to try. It was the only way for me to make him st
Aoi’s Perspective________________________“It’s around here somewhere.”I already left the hospital and immediately went straight to Shibuya Subway, where Midori found me a blacksmith that could help me refine my weapon. As I strolled around the place, hundreds of people passed me by. But none of them looked like they were adventurers or entering inside the portal. Although Midori had already reminded me that the portal was something unknown to the public, my system never found out throughout the station.And then I remembered. The place that Midori instructed me to go was to go through a bathroom and enter the last cubicle. From there, I should knock at the wall ten times and stomp my feet three times. I didn’t know how Midori discovered i
There was nothing that caught my sight in this isolated wasteland. I could barely even see any people in this place, and the stalls were just tables turned upside down. It was as if a hurricane blew this place away. But amidst the awful sight, a store stood tall among the rest of its demolished neighbours.I had nothing else to do but approach the place and wandered off on my own. This place was the furthest inside the portal, and the exit was a few miles away from me. However, I cared little about it as I stood in front of the shop. My eyes sparkled behind the mask when I gawked at the store’s contents.This particular store didn’t have anything special. It was just like any ordinary stall with weapons displayed on the table and other materials used for the equipment. But I didn’t need any of that. All I cared about was the sign that an
The old man led me further inside his shop. He went past me and flipped the sign to temporarily close his store. Afterward, the man returned inside and urged me to follow his lead.I did as the bloke had told me and entered further inside the ragged store. And when I stepped into the next room, everything became different. The rusty metals and weapons were no more. The place wasn’t clustered, and my eyes saw no dust hanging from the creeks and the ceiling. My nose caught the fragrance of thousands of roses and spring, compared to the rotting stench of dead rats from the previous room.Everything was different. Even the walls had been covered with fresh paint, and the weapons on stock were recently made. The anvil and the hammers were properly placed and organised on the desk. This man also had a fire pit ready to molten down the metals and forge the

I swiped my hand and activated my hologram related to my system. My inventory popped up and revealed the numerous skins and materials my system had collected. And with one click of my finger, I summoned the item and placed it on an empty table. It was a goblin’s skin, one Vulcan had mentioned and needed earlier. I didn’t place everything on the side, since they wouldn’t fit. But I just wanted to show Vulcan what I was capable of and I was willing to help him. “This is…” Vulcan mumbled, as he picked one sword he had made from the table to his hand. He stared at it for a couple of seconds before throwing it away on the side. Vulcan’s eyes blazed in anger, as his cheeks turned red in hatred and despair. Instead of tears, sweat from his hard work dripped from the temple of his eyes. The eyebags resting on his sockets were evidence that he hadn’t had any dec
