“Shit! All the more reason to speed this up! Screw you Tethra, now i gotta rush this project. Hopefully the destination won’t change”

The long haired young man, Friche, got frustated by his friend antics. Actually, he just moved the teleporter temporarily to find some papers, but Tethra just came at the really right time... or wrong time. Anyway now, he couldn’t take this easy anymore, he had to save that annoying friend of his. Actually he couldn’t even remember how the hell did they even became friend.

At first, he was just going to casually continue his late dad’s project while socializing. But when he saw that it was a teleporter project, he suddenly got an idea to get to another world with the teleporter and there were no need to wait for summons or reincarnation. So, he got very excited and even ignored social life.

He always rejected his friends' invitation to hang out. He never talked much because he was always thinking about the project. And he pretty much go home instantly after class ended so, he got no friend, they even avoided him.

Then they came to his life. Tethra and his friend. No, there were no bullying or something cliche. They just came out of nowhere and started bugging him. At first he ignored them. But they were persistent, they even followed him all the way to his lab.

They amused him when he was a bit bored. They motivated him when he got depressed. They delivered foods and drinks to him so he could concentrate on the project better. They even gave him some idea when he was out of idea.

Of course, after all 2 years they got together, they grew on Friche. Not just that, he really cared a lot about them, just like a relative or even closer.

He even considered the idea of inviting them to the fantasy world with him so they could be friends forever. But, he didn’t want to destroy their future here just because he wanted them to be together forever, so he only considered it, and would only act on it after the teleporter finished.

Now that he thought about it again, the one he should save wasn’t Tethra, that annoying bastard did whatever he wanted, so if he got to another world without a leash...

“SHIT! My ideal fantasy world! Tethra i will kill you if it got destroyed by you!”

And he worked even faster than fast.

=====-------=====

A young man suddenly appeared in a bright white light. The young man in his early twenties wore a casual outfit for going out, an orange t-shirt, a hoodie, a cargo shorts, and a running shoes. The man had a pair of exotic blue eyes and his face is considered quite handsome (self-procalimed). He looked around and noticed that he was inside some sort of forest. Everytime he turned around, there were only trees. The place he was standing on looked to be some sort of clearing.

A case of content theft: this narrative is not rightfully on Amazon; if you spot it, report the violation.

“Huh? I think there are no forest like this on earth, where is this? Well, at least Friche’s teleporter worked well, i think i got no missing organs or limbs”

Tethra casually walked around a bit, but suddenly he noticed something.

“The sky is blue??!!!” Actually, because of the great flood, some strange phenomenons appeared on earth. Like the noon sky became purple, and the night sky became even darker than usual, and so on.

Now after seeing the blue sky, of course Tethra would be surprised, no well he should be shocked because he was no longer on earth but well, maybe he got strong mental strength.

“I’M NOT ON EARTH??!!” So, just a late response.

Tethra calmed down a bit after that. He never thought that he would be transported... teleported to another world like in many novels he had read. He got excited thinking about all of the magic he could learn, but he suddenly thought of Friche and Reira.

They must be worried about him.

"Well, they know i'm a tough bastard, i will just wait for them in this world"

Now he should just worry about his own predicament of what to do.

“Now, what should i do?”

While thinking of that, a bright light came out of his hoodie's inner pocket. From there, a book flew out.

“Ah, my book! No! It’s my hardwork of searching and writing almost all of the mythical beings name!”

The book flew and suddenly something very fast struck the book. He didn’t even get the chance to see what struck the book and it already fell back to the ground powerlessly.

“Phew, nothing happened i hope”

Just as he was about to reach for the book, thunder fell from the sky and struck the book, again. Ethereal chains came out of nowhere and bound the book, and ethereal sphere also surrounded the book while it flew to the sky slowly.

“NOO! MY BOOK! EVEN IF YOU’RE GOD OR SOMETHING, NOTHING CAN TAKE THE BOOK FROM ME! I suppose...”

Mumbling the last line, Tethra jumped to the book and hugged it protectively. The book struggled for sometime but finally it calmed down and the ethereal sphere that surrounded it also disappeared.

“My book! Please, don’t let anything happen...” Slowly opening the book, Tethra found a blank page. A glass breaking sound could be heard from inside of Tethra.

“No, no, no, no.... don’t tell me...” Unfortunately, the universe would never be kind to MCs, so what would happen, everybody already knew, even Tethra himself. Opening the next page while trembling, Tethra found a blank page too. Frantically opening all the pages, Tethra found nothing.

“NOOOOOOOOOO!” dramatically kneeling, Tethra repeatedly pounded the ground in depression.

After a long time pounding the ground, Tethra suddenly stood up. No trace of depression could be seen on his face. Wow, cool mood switch.

“Well, i will just write another after i got back to earth, i just hope Friche can come here faster”

Suddenly the book glowed and got attracted to a direction.

“What? This book can move now?! Cool! Let’s follow the attraction”

Following the attraction, after walking and avoiding tree branch for around 100 metres, Tethra found a big stone. The stone was tall and wide. It had height of 10'2" and width of 7'. The huge stone had a carved drawing.

It was the drawing of a woman, with artificial wings on his back jumping from a cliff. As a myth anthusiast, Tethra found this drawing to be very familiar... just with a different gender. He had already memorized almost all of earth's myth, of course he would know what that is.

“Icarus?”
