Chapter 9 : Other side of the chase

"Who would want to go there?"

I said while trying to pass my hand through the portal to get there before becoming aware that this portal would break if I tried to pass the rest of my body after putting through my arm and in the case of some object - or the magic words that I could make into objects - bigger than half the radius of this table portal.

After that I just chose to look around and realised that my body has not yet come back though it's coordinates were making it know that it was here.

Divine grade spatial transportation worked pretty weird apparently.

Changing my point of view away from the ceiling I shifted the portal to then look at the window and saw a peculiar sight that made me reel with shock even after all I went through.

A flood was coming towards this building's way!

I might have done something about it only if this wasn't out of the left field and this gate was strong enough to let me send enough words to create a barricade in order to stop a massive moving body of water that was now a few meters short from collision.

But I since could not I just decided to watch and saw as the water collided to the building with enough speed and momentum to easily make it collapse.

The building then got submerged it did not show signs of any collapse or the water escaping inside even after it reached up to it's sixth floors and then moved ahead.

"There is some supernatural interference going on here. Could it be due to me? No. So whose work is it?"

At a closer and trying to search for it made me realise it was not just this building but multiple points in this city was influenced with the power of some Divine which I did no know the name of. So I used my pencil to learn it.

"Blessing from the Divine [Manifester of Games]. The blessing is labelled as...Community Service?"

Strange choice for a name but it did actively saved every single person and their pet in the from an out of nowhere natural disaster so he could call it charity case and nobody who benefitted from it have the right to make a squeak.

This blessing had transported everybody who was in the vicinity of this flood to a safe location while also providing them reimburses to damages they would have incurred and went through an extra mile to transport any irreplaceable or deep sentimentally valuable item of the person with them .

It made me doubt the intentions, so I checked the flood and it was just a unfortunate but untampered natural disaster due to cloud burst at the Adrusat river which led this flooding to occur.

"Wait, does that mean my body would transferred to that place when it arrives in a few minutes?"

Figuring out the effects of the blessings and what happened due to it gave me the answers I was looking for.

This city with a large population of idle youth because of the many high-ranking colleges at close vicinity, who would have been dead because of the sudden catastrophe but were now saved and now will study by going through a journey that characters go through in fiction. Also with their families would be informed through proper channels, since of course a supernatural being with powers beyond mortal conception could do something like that.

Meanwhile those who were send to their safety and still on this Earth were just bystanders who simply benefited while having their lives and valuables saved from an unforeseen disaster.

The symbols on the tablet were starting to flicker making me understand.

"This portal gate will close to in less than a before my body would arrive. I should leave around a method to keep in touch and interact at least once"

My first thought went on overtaking smartphone but got beaten by [Manifester of Games] who already occupied it and use it to give out missions and scenarios that were a whole different pile of information which I would see first hand that having to plainly read about it.

The story has been illicitly taken; should you find it on Amazon, report the infringement.

While in the other rooms of this building some poor students had been already either mauled by a twice cursed Wolf or gotten so nervous after looking at it that they passed out.

The moment that happened immediately transported to be healed and after perfectly healed from every injury they might have suffered throughout their entire life to then carry out different missions where the missions are not about the number but set aside as a goal of having either overcome enough hardships or gaining enough strength to then gain their freedom all while having capability to maintain it.

"I truly ought to meet this Divine who crafted this blessing and fully understood how to make us so that we give our best"

Deciding to complete the whole writing theme I wrote the word 'book' to then send it over to be on the bed as whenever my other self come then he would grasp it thus making this into a natural interaction that would hopefully not scare him too much.

After passing 'book' through the portal then materializing into the object before the portal completely powered off and shut down but I could still see the room through a screen made with my own powers instead.

"It worked!"

Although my physical interaction here was now limited through the book I could easily see the room and control the book's movement itself as well as write words on it though it can't be bigger than the book itself.

Soon a noise of something falling came and followed it a confused voice then an exclamation of pain.

"By-bye? Ow!"

Looking at my old carefully from the bed I noticed my expression and saw that was how I would have acted but that old Shadow was skilled enough to beat me in competition of acting as myself.

As for who was inside I was not sure about, so I carefully slid the book and made him grasping.

'Oh this is definitely me'

Having scanned myself back in the garden of wisdom I was able to completely see the composition of my entire body and through it the soul shape and recognise how the soul in there was weak it being supported by a nearly identical shell as to how it was before it was broken and I took off the majority of it.

The one in control was undoubtedly my other self. Meaning the contract was not breached nor that it could be still you have to be sure.

Before I could initiate any interaction between us he threw the book which I did not see where it was falling over so I made it float and search to fins any other place where I could get his attention from.

Only for it to be too late as my other self, who I could finally accept to be called as Auden, had switched on the lights and turned back looking at the floating book for a moment before immediately making a run for it.

"He is running away!"

Fearing that he might run away too far for me to even catch up I allowed the book to fly after him and I made it out of there just in time before he could close the door.

After that it was just long chase in hallway where I slowed my speed slightly as I realised he was going to run around to go back to the room and I let him do so.

Finally when he got to the room and locked it from the inside while not having any idea of what was about to happen so I waited until the point where he must have read the smartphone message then checked around for confirmation.

"I should make him slightly worried that this door is about to breached"

So I slammed the door at full force with the book and when I sensed the hole of portal forming down the hallway then immediately stuck the book to the ceiling all while watching.

A large grey furred wolf slowly walked over to the door and it automatically opened when a smartphone flash come from inside.
