Chapter 11: The Decision

Leonel couldn’t collect his thoughts after hearing Ethan and Stan’s words. Their story shook him to his core. They claimed that in their world, he was still alive but in a coma. Moreover, after his disappearance, strange events had begun—weather changes, the collapse of magical balance, and the disappearance of certain people.

— “You have to return, or our world might collapse,” — Stan said uncertainly, clenching his fists.

They didn’t know if their world was still intact or if the anomalies had already destroyed it.

They had been away for so long… What if it was already too late?

Leonel remained silent, trying to grasp the gravity of the situation.

— “But how can I just leave?” — he finally objected. — “I have a family here, responsibilities, people who care about me.”

— “We don’t know how it works,” — Ethan said seriously. — “But if our world is connected to this one… maybe the destruction of one will affect the other. We need to figure it out.”

Leonel felt that if he turned away from this problem now, the consequences could be catastrophic.

But fear held him back. He looked at his friends, at the world he had lived in for so long, and realized—he couldn’t abandon it, he couldn’t just run away.

Yet, if their suspicions were true,

he had no choice.
