Walking through the forest, the group continue walking.
"Ritai!"
"Oh my god... what!"
I fear the day those two stop bickering.
"How much time is left!"
"Why not just shove it!"
I should not have let my sister talk me into saving them.
"Yo bro."
"What."
"Doesn't that remind you of us!"
What? No. No way, we do not look like that when we fight.
"No."
"Well, you think what you like."
She seemed slightly mad? Oh well.
We continued walking for a few more hours until i could see a town in the horizen.
"We're here!"
Rilatia said joyfully as she stopped casting that magic map.
"This is... that rats home town, we will only be visiting that place for now because we have more important things to do afterwards."
Hearing an insult directed towards him, Pomator looked like he was about to speak up but stopped as soon as he saw Tralios face.
"Well... the town is called Worae! It has beautiful views and amazing food!"
"Its a countryside village. Nothing special."
I could feel the anger inside Pomator exude out as we walked.
Finally, we made it to the village.
"Worae! I have returned!"
Pomator excitedly spoke as he raised his hands into the air.
When the surrounding villagers saw him, they all reflexively looked petrified and annoyed at the same time.
"They all love me!"
Pomator said to us as he turned his head to us.
"That nightmare is back!"
Hearing a random persons call out, i saw his face slowly grow cold... ouch.
We decided to split up, me and my sister while the three do some business before we head out again.
"We will come back here around the same time tommorow to continue, okay?"
"Alright big sis!"
"See you later Em!"
Those two seemed to have gotten closer.
Soon they said their goodbyes and as we began walking.
"Could've atleast said goodbye to them..."
I inwardly sighed as i heard her words.
"It wouldn't have mattered anyways, it seems that we are stuck in a loop of sorts."
"Well atleast we saved them."
Reaching a nice bench to sit, she sits on the left as i sit on the right.
"It was still unnecassary."
Speaking bluntly, i looked at the sky as it sets into a chilly night.
"And why? Huh?!"
Hearing her sudden outburst, my mind freezes.
Finally, i snap out of it as i reply.
"Because if what i theorize is correct, then it wouldn't matter if we save them or not, we would just come back."
"Then what is this so called theory? Huh?!"
"We come back after dying."
She looked like she was about to scream at me again but stopped as she began to think.
"Hold on... no, that wouldnt make sense... would it? No..."
Hearing her mumbles, i put my hands behind my head as i waited for her to reply.
"Yeah... yeah! It's impossible! What about the times before we came to this place!"
If you discover this tale on Amazon, be aware that it has been unlawfully taken from Royal Road. Please report it.
Finally hearing her answer, I shrugged.
"Well, i did say it was just a theory."
"Fine then, hmpf..."
There she goes, pouting like a kid.
"Enough of that."
"No!"
"I need to tell you the plan."
"The plan? Oh right! The plan to escape!"
"Exactly."
"Well tell me then!"
She seemed more impatient.
"Simple, we help the demon lord with destroying the world."
". . .what?"
The disbelief on her face added onto her confused voice.
"Yeah, we will join the demon lord and with his help, we will destroy the world and hop through the gap caused by it."
She was rubbing her head with her hand as she tried to understand why i said this.
"Im sorry... did you say that correctly?"
What was so hard to understand?
"You heard it correctly."
"What is that dumb plan!"
"This is not our world, our people or our families."
"But they are still real!"
"So was our world and yet it was destroyed. It does not matter."
Standing up, i begin to walk away.
♤♡◇♧
...
'What did he say? He would just destroy the world for us to get out?'
I take a deep breath.
'Everyone i met... i-i dont know if he is my brother anymore...'
As i slowly exhale, i stand up and begin to follow him.
Finding the three again, my brother told them that we should split apart here or something, i wasn't listening.
Looking somewhere as my mind wonders, i see a beautiful looking mountain‐...the mountain just disappeared?
H-hey bro?
I turn to face him but that's when i realized that there was nothing around me...
What the hell?
I couldn't speak...
Thats when i saw it, a man that looks almost identical to my brother, slowly walking towards me.
Each step was agonisingly slow.
S-system!
『Not Enough Authority』
...what?
Soon, it stood infront of me.
"H...e...a...r...t..."
Its voice was so slow, its body was of my brother, he outstretched his hand and put his finger on my forehead.

Then, words began to appear.

I wanted to vomit after being forced to see whatever that was... then, the system began to act weirdly
『Not Enough Authority』
『Not Enough Authority』
『Not Enough Authortiy』
It felt like my mind was being crushed as it continued to repeat itself.
My nose began to bleed as i could feel blood coming up my throat.
『Authority Detected』
Soon, it stopped as the man sent a single spark towards me, it wasn't painful.
I wanted to ask its name but all it did was put its finger over its mouth, it somehow knew what i wanted to say.
"P...a...r...a..."
Soon, everything appeared again as he disappeared.
My brother holding my hand as we walk out of the city.
"What the?"
"Oh, you're back."
"W-why are we going now?!"
"What? What the hell do you mean."
"You told them we would split up and then just leave?!"
"That was a day ago."
...a day ago?
"We left after we rested, you looked really out of it."
How? What? When?
"Let go!"
Yanking my hand free, i realized he wasn't putting any grip into my hand, like guiding me instead of forcing me.
He turned around... and his resemblance to that man was so unnatural, it left me doubtful again.
"Alright fine. Dont lost track."
He began walking as i followed suit.
□♡◇♧
"Im so tired!"
Trozia said as he drooped down.
Elipsia just laughed as she kept floating while Yarren was groaning.
Iris stayed quiet.
Now that they stopped fighting, you could clearly see what they looked like.
Trozia had armour fitting a warrior, although not very heroic as his messy black also drooped, fitting his mood, his brown eyes has a glow to it.
Elipsia had a regular clothing but she had a reason to do so, her robe had many enchantments she herself added making the robe very sought-after with her hat large enough to block her brown flowing hair the sun from her red eyes.
Yarren was had slightly more muscles than Trozia as he had no armour and focused more or streamline and slick clothing covering his tanned body, he had two daggers on each waist as he finally got rid of that bow, his hood covering his black hair and eyes.
Iris had light yellow eyes with platinum hair, her body covered in a modest manner, she constantly looks relaxed unless you were a demon.
While they were walking, they see a Mratri.
"Finally! Some action!"
Trozia, without waiting, sprinted ahead as he unsheathed his sword.
"Wait! The Mratri looks off!"
Before he could register that word, the 'Mratri' grabbed him from the air.
"He- help!"
As he said that, Elipsia sighed as she shot an arrow made of ice.
"Although it looks off, it should just be a regular Mratri."
She was wrong, it let the arrow hit it as Trozia started screaming.
"Foul beast, i shall teach you the truth."
Iris began to channel Divine energy into the surrounding air as the beast grows weaker.
Yarren shoots out of a shadow behind it as he slashed its legs to offset its balance.
It did not care as it kept doing whatever to the screaming man.
"Damn it!"
He moved back into the shadows as he retreated.
After he left, a barrage of light began to assault it while moving around Trozia.
More injuries piled up but it did not stop.
Elipsia began to chant a massive spell but before she could finish she gets pushed away by Yarren as the two roll on the ground.
"What the hell are you doing!"
"Saving your ass!"
When she heatd that, she looked at where she ince was to see... a slash mark?
Iris ran towards them as she uttered some news Elipsia didn't want to believe in.
"Trozia seemed to have attacked us!"
Quickly turning her head to face Trozia... she saw the dead Mratri with him standing ontop with a sword.
He looked wrong... uncanny.
"I am Trozia!"
"...what?"
"I am Trozia!"
Elipsia and Yarren got up as all three of them heard Trozia(?)
"I am Trozia!"
"Troz? Are you okay?"
Iris asked nervously.
"I am Trozia!"
"I am Trozia!"
"I am Trozia!"
"I am Trozia!"
"I am Trozia!"
"I am Trozia!"
"I am Trozia!"
"I am Trozia!"
"I am Trozia!"
"I am Trozia!"
"I am Trozia!"
Its outburst as its own voice overlapped with itself.
It raises its sword upwards as it readys an attack.
"Everyone... move!"
Yarrens yell snapped both of the other two out as he grabbed Elipsia and Iris out of the way.
With a downard slash, the area where they were was cut with a deep gash towards the ground.
"Lets go!"
Yarren grabbed both of their hands as he jumped into a shadow.
"Yarren! We need to get Troz!"
"That thing stopped being Troz! Your smart Ellie so think!"
The three escape as Trazio is left there, smiling...
The dead body of the Mratri begins to rot exceedingly fast causing the surrounding area to change and shift... to become corrupted and glitch.
Trazio(?) Begins walking to walk into the dense forest as he mumbles.
"I am Trozia..."
