EPISODE 2

CHAPTER 8 : RUN TILL THE END (3)

"Everyone get ready to get down, we have nearly reached our destination." the guide said to us with a serious look on her face.

Every one looked tensed too, it felt more like I was in a military vehicle than a tour bus. Of course I am tensed, it was like I drank water for every minute in this whole journey. I am going to see monsters for the first time and I am gonna fight them too.

The professor said that we newly recruited people are going to fight the noobs as the expert Arcaners are gonna take care of the powerful monsters.

We 20 newly recruited members were divided into four teams that means each team contains 5 members and then each team would have 4 elite members that means there are nine people going on a raid for the [DOOR].

Unfortunately Happi and I were in separate teams. So I don't have anyone to talk to now.

Suddenly the bus stopped. "Everyone we have reached our destination so please get down of the bus." the guide said to us moving towards the entrance of the exit.

One by one we all slowly got down the bus. What??!! I didn't notice outside of the bus but we have reached one of the biggest University in the country. The most important thing is, this university is too near to my house.

As I was thinking about my house we walked towards the canteen of the University.

"!!??" everyone including me was surprised to see the [DOOR] for the first time. It was nearly 10 foot tall and was emitting a bright violet light which made it impossible to look inside the [DOOR]. "Shiver....shiver...." suddenly I felt cold.

Something touched me. I turned back as fast as I could "Wowowo don't be scared junior brother it's just me." a tall man who looks older than me tapping my shoulder. Seeing him I calmed down a little.

"So are you newly recruited?" the person who was a experienced Arcaner asked me with a bright smile on his face. That smile took out all my tension. I think he knew that I am a newly recruited, he just wanted to take out a topic to talk about.

"Yes senior brother, I am newly recruited." I said to him with a small smile on my face.

"Oh then you must feel tensed, but you don't have to feel so tensed even I was terrified on the first day of my raid but you see I also had a senior who helped me a lot at that time. So this time I will help you when you need it." he cheerfully said to me showing me his thumb.

"Yes thank you for your advice." I bowed to him.

"Oh you don't need to bow, if you need any help you can just call me. By the way my name is Mitra." he said me shaking my hand. He was so happy to see me as his junior. !! I didn't notice at first but he was wearing a heavy armor with a long sword attached to his belt. If I had noticed it before I would have shouted 'AWESOME!!!!' but now is not the situation.

"Hey is that a new weapon?" he asked me seeing my sword.

"Yes brother, I just took it from the blacksmith yesterday and my name is Rishi. Nice to meet you senior." I said to him, man!! I want to touch the armor it's so shiny!!

"Everyone it's time for the [DOOR] to open so please get ready." the guide shouted raising her hand and waving us to get near the [DOOR].

If you stumble upon this tale on Amazon, it's taken without the author's consent. Report it.

"Everyone be in formation as we discussed." an Arcaner shouted. The experienced Arcaners went to the front leaving some gap between so that some monsters come to us. We have to fight the monsters to gain some experience.

According to what Vigyan said, this [DOOR] has a cursed aura of a weak class gate so it should not be hard for us to fight.

ZZZINGGG "The [DOOR] is opening!! Everyone takeout our weapons!!" the front line Arcaners shouted.

I took out my newly made sword which was very sharp and balanced or that's what it looked like but I have something more that a sword.

WOOOSHHH a particularly unique sound started coming from the [DOOR]. I looked beside me, everyone was standing holding their weapon and looked like they were kind of nervous.

"!!!! I feel like the [DOOR] is pulling me towards it!!" Mitra shouted.

"!!??" now I also feel like some invisible energy is pulling me towards the door.

"AAAAAAA" suddenly the energy that started pulling us increased and we all started dragged towards the [DOOR].

"What the hell is happening?!!" everyone started shouting.

We started holding some things that can hold us at a place and some others started running in the opposite direction but nothing worked. The energy that was pulling us suddenly increased and we all were going towards the bright violet circle "AAAAA HELP US!!!!" every one started shouting. Even the experienced Arcaners were helpless.

Now the question what should I do. I was catching my sword which I stabbed on the ground. But still I was being sucked. When I was a certain point near the [DOOR] I started flying into the air and was pulled into the [DOOR] "AAAAAAAA" I shouted in this nerve waking situation.

Is this the end of me?

***********

I slowly opened my eyes. Am I in hell or heaven? As my vision became clearer I came to understand the situation.

We were all in a strange place and no one looked injured. "Everyone don't panic. I think we are all inside the [DOOR]. we have to find a way out of here." Mitra tried to calm down everyone.

"What don't panic?!! We are inside the [DOOR]!! The most dangerous place I have heard of till now!!" a person with a familiar face started shouting.

"Don't worry I have contacted IAA about the situation with my magic power. They might find a solution to get us out of here." the guide said to us.

"So everyone let's start moving!! Is anyone with a fire of light Arcane present here?" Mitra asked us doubtfully.

"Um... I am a fire type Arcaner." a thin girl raised her hand. I think her name was Krithi. She was a silent person who worked hard during our practice session.

"Then please light a small fire ball to see our surroundings." Mitra asked her kindly. She then just waved her finger and a small fire ball formed on her finger.

We all looked around our surroundings. It looked like we were in a cave like structure surrounded by huge rocks. It was more like a tunnel.

So for us there were to ways to go that is front or back. There was only darkness on both sides of the tunnel as if it had no end.

"Sigh.... let's move forward as we don't know about the current situation." the guide said to us and we started moving.

This was the first time I was walking in a tunnel like structure. Everyone was tensed, we don't know what will happen to us. The most dangerous thing about the current situation was that we all were inside the most dangerous place in the whole world.

"Everyone, I think we don't have to feel too nervous. As for the measurement of the [DOOR] according to IAA it is just a [DOOR] that has a difficult level below average. We already have 4 elite Arcaners like me and you were also trained for this." Mitra tried to calm down our nervousness.

I don't think that will calm us down because the situation is too dangerous. 4 elite Arcaners with 5 newbies with a guide what will be our situation if too many monsters come at us at a time?

Suddenly a small light came in contact with my eye "I can see light some distance away from us." I saif to everyone.

"Then we have to go there as fast as we can." someone said from my back.

"What? I think we should do the opposite thing. We are inside the [DOOR] where there are monsters not a city with people." I said to them with a serious voice.

"Yes what Rishi said is right. We cannot take any risk, let's wait here for some time and analyze the situation." Mitra told us agreeing to what I said. I think he is really experienced to how to calm down and manage the situation.

Dum....dum....dum..... suddenly a strange sound started coming.

"What's that??!!" everyone started getting terrified.

"I think some rock slipped and fell down. You don't have to worry." the guide said to us.

BOOMM "What??!!" the sound came from behind us "!!!!" the tunnel collapsed behind us. That means we cannot go back we have to only move forward!!!

Dum.....dum...dum... The strange sound started coming again. It was coming towards us. Everyone's faces became pale. We all hid behind a big rock which had collapsed behind us.

Slowly we noticed something coming towards us. As it came nearer to us it's figure mecame more clearer.

"Why is a 'One eyed Orc' here?!!!" Mitra shouted.
