“Start the Launch”

Once approval was given the entire room turned into screens showing certain locations. These were five in total, and one of them was the city Luo was at.

“Do you really have to do this?"

"You are literally destroying yourself”

Luo looked at the cyborg's back as she stared at the gourd in her hand. He asked this not because he felt sympathy towards her rather, he was simply curious about something.

“I know but I’ve got no other choice. This was the plan since the beginning and the only reason I was putting it off was due to her”

She pointed to the gourd as she spoke in her cold voice.

“Didn’t say that you had contact to other planets and civilization why didn’t request support?”

“They wouldn’t help as this world isn’t part of their alliance”

“Alliance?”

“Yes, the vastness of the universe is infinite that no matter how long you travel no end could be found. The number of planets and worlds within this vastness is infinite but not all of them hold life much less civilizations."

“Do you know how this vastness is separated?”

“How?”

“Listen!”

“There exist three known Realms, the Demonic Planes where Chaos Reigns and the Castle of Sins reside, then is our Realm, The Neon where the Akashic Records keep Order and divide the universe into Four Planes, First Order Plane, Second Order Plane, Third Order Plane, and the Transcendent plane after this comes the Abyss the origin of all and the end of all”

“Originally the Demons should not have existed on our Realm but this changed when the Castle of Sins chose its Lord, Satan. He who had envied the Order of Neon created a pathway linking the Demonic Planes to Neon through the Abyss, shaking the established Order as demons started invading every civilization it came across."

“And this is where The Neontic Alliance came about, as powerhouses of various races came together and pledged through the Akashic Pledge to fight against the Demons."

“Then how come they didn’t support you? Were humans not part of this alliance or what?”

“No, our race was and still part of the alliance but some rules were put into place in order to be considered part of the alliance”

“Rules?”

“Yes, to be under the protection of the alliance a planet needs at least one Third Order individual representing it as a part of the alliance or belong to an organization that is already part of the alliance”

“And you didn’t have that”

Luo asserted

“Exactly, the highest ranked being in my world was only Peak of First Order and we didn’t get the chance to join any organization before the giants invaded us."

“Well, I guess this is enough don’t you think so?”

Luo smiled as it seems she was already aware of his intentions.

“Yeah, thanks"

“I think it is time for you to depart "

“But before that do you mind making a small delivery in my stead?"

“A delivery?”

Luo frowned at her request in confusion as she threw the gourd in her hand to him along with a metal feather

“Don’t worry it’s nothing dangerous, and it won’t need you to take any detours, you just need to deliver this to my friend once you get there”

Luo looked at her before looking down. He could taste the truth in her words along with desperation.

‘She is just putting up a strong front at the end of the day. It must have been a struggle '

He looked at the screen showing various parts of the planet before saying.

*Sigh*

“Got it, I will take it with me."

Sarah had her back to him so he couldn’t see her expression but her tone gave her away

The genuine version of this novel can be found on another site. Support the author by reading it there.

“Thanks”

Only a small word of gratitude was uttered but for Luo who can taste her emotions knew how immense gratitude she held for him was.

“Don’t worry about it!”

Sarah didn’t waste time as she directly opened the gate by his side and said

“You just have to pass through this and it will directly lead you to a spatial Rift leading to the elf kingdom”

Luo nodded at her and silently without saying anything walked inside the open gate

“I wish you have a fortunate journey”

Inside the gourd Saya woke up once again surrounded by darkness. She was still confused at what was happening but much calmer.

“How are you doing Saya?”

Saya jolted from her place as she heard a womanly voice right behind her.

“Who are you?”

Behind her was female an elegant one she wore military clothes and had blue eyes with data streaming through them.

“Me? Somebody very close to you."

“Close to m-, wait are you the voice which helped me!?, yeah you must be I can’t be mistaken”

“Hoho, I don’t know about that."

“What do you want from me?"

“Nothing, I just wanted to see you”

Saya was perplexed. She couldn’t understand the deal with this woman but weirdly she wasn’t on guard against her.

*TOUCH *

Sarah walked to Saya and put her hand on her cheek as she said with sadness filling her voice

“You have certainly grown my baby. I wish I was there”

“What are you talki-”

“Shhh”

“I know it is confusing, one day you will get it, I just want you to know that I’m sorry I won’t be there”

Kiss

"This is the least I could give you, good night my baby”

Sarah kissed Saya's head leaving a blue starry mark in her template as she slowly disintegrated.

“What just happened?"

*Drop*

“Huh?”

“Why am I crying again?"

A hollow sadness filled Saya’s chest as she couldn’t back her tears. She cried and cried until she lost consciousness once more.

From a place outside the planet, a camera like object transmitted a video image of the planet to a place very far away to a woman sitting on a black bony throne.

*BOOM *

A thunderous explosion shook the planet. Space trembled as debris and lumps of rocks scattered everywhere, the heat increased as a lava formed.

“WHAT!? THAT BIT#H IS SHE MAD?”

“She has gone and done it”

Upon seeing the scene unfold before her eyes the woman stood from her chair as she looked at what remained of the planet. She was bewildered and shocked at how ruthless Sarah was.

“That bit#h I knew she wasn’t right in the head when I’ve talked to her before but to actually think she would blow herself in half”

*Sigh *

The woman flopped back down on her chair as she shook her head before swinging her arm and manifested a rune.

“To all my subjects, gather your harvests and retreat immediately."

Her words were spoken into the runes before she crushed them. This message resounded to all the surviving Demonic creatures on the planet as they complied. Soon light towers started appearing throughout the planet. They numbered in the dozens and each of them was probably a human farm.

Before the explosion, a gate opened in the middle of a ruined city and Luo came out of it.

“Wow this is quite, Uh, Tiny”

As he came out, he looked ahead where the rift Sarah mentioned was, but the thing is that thing’s size is not quite up to expectations. It was a rift the size of a small window, he would barely be able to fit through.

*sigh*

“Well, let’s just leave "

Luo sighed as he didn’t have much of a choice. He checked his surroundings to make sure nobody was around as he got to squeezing himself inside.

*Swoop*

As he pushed his half body into the rift, he experienced the familiar sensation once again.

‘Hopefully it doesn’t as long as last time’

Luo shook his head when the tunnel he was traveling through suddenly trembled and his traveling speed increased several times over. Despite that Luo didn’t panic as he looked back and thought.

‘She actually did it’

He could feel that the side he came from had closed, even though he wasn’t there he knew the reason. Luo refocused on his path as he could feel himself being ejaculated at high speed outside the tunnel.

‘It shouldn’t take long’

The tunnel rapidly shrunk as the end was already in sight.

*Swoop *

*Thud *

Luo got launched out of the tunnel as he managed to properly land on both feet.

“A forest!?”

He arrived at a forest with green trees, similar to earth's forests.

“Weird, didn’t she say I would arrive directly inside a library?”

Luo was thinking about the anomaly trying to figure out what exactly happened when Eijaz said

[It was due to the explosion]

“You mean...”

[Yes, the explosives used weren’t simple nuclear weapons, rather a modified version using origin energy]

“But why would she do that knowing that it would hinder our travel?"

[She probably didn’t expect the scale to affect spatial travels]

*Sigh *

Luo no longer bothered thinking about the done things as he tried figuring out his surroundings.

“It seems like a normal forest. There is also a sun and the sky is blue”

He quickly scanned his surroundings before asking Eijaz

“Can you scan this planet, Eijaz?"

[I’m on the process of doing that]

While waiting for Eijaz, Luo tried climbing a tree to get a better view of his surroundings.

“Wow”

It was a really unique sight before him, and he couldn't help but exclaim at what he saw.

He lowered his stance and hid his presence as he gazed at the place ahead. At this time Eijaz said.

[Those are tree men Luo, where are in their region, this planet is divided into two main regions, The tree-man forest and the Elf kingdom]

[We are currently at the border of the Tree-man region]

Luo heard what Eijaz said and asked

“Hm, then how far are we from the Elf capital Nerheim”

[Not very far if we were to go by foot we should be able to reach there within two weeks]

Luo contemplated what he heard as he jumped down into the ground. He decided to walk to the tree man village he had just seen. Well to call it a village is an understatement as it was the size of city

“Eijaz are they hostile?”

[Tree-men are known as a very peaceful race, however that is to the people they trust.]

“You mean that they might attack me as I’m a stranger?"

[They won’t attack you as travelers often pass through here. There must be a procedure we must go through]

“Well,let's take a look at what's awaiting us then”
