Ch#04 Back to Earth

Entering the portal he saw the space around him began to warp and contort. The immense pressure from space travelling caused his soul to morph and change into different shapes. Trying hard to keep control over his senses He remained oblivious of the fact that he was travelling millions of miles per second jumping from one dimension to another.

After what seemed to be a long time Brian started to regain control over his senses. The first thing greeting his eyes were gigantic LED screens mounted on brightly lit multifloored buildings, a multitude of colorful advertisement boards decorating the top of every shop and a great number of people filling every corner of the street giving an overall feeling of a bustling city

“back to japan huh,”

“Lets see what this pendant does” hoping a reaction from the locket he tried to fumble it around but the locket remained dull without much movement

Dissapointed Brian started to examine his soul. To his surprise his previous gray soul now had a black vortex spinning in its heart region.

Intrigued he attempted touch it all to have his hand passing through the vortex, “not again” grumbling he tried to concentrate thinking that sufficient concentration might evoke some reaction.

1min, 2 min… after an hour of continuous fruitless effort his felt his soul getting tiered, wanting to give up he felt a slight discomfort in his head.

“Aghhhhhhhhhhh!”

Suddenly assaulted by a severe pain he fell down clutching his head. It felt like a snake drilling his head making its way to his eyes. When the sensation finally reached its destination, a current of warm energy spread from his eyes to fill his whole soul. He felt the energy changing every inch of his being making his soul experience a fundamental change.

After a few moments, the energy which seemed to have materialized magically disappeared. Looking at Brian, his soul was still blurry but coupled with the black vortex a third eye appeared on the center of his forehead, the eye had a golden pupil which shone magnificently in the dark night.

“Huh” Brian seemed to have felt the presence of another organ, through a little concentration he managed to peer out through his third eye, it felt like opening a door to a new dimension.

Looking around the whole world seemed more vibrant and colorful, there were various tiny balls of light floating in the air like little fairies the moment he wanted to touch them they slid away from his grasp, even the sky was full of these lights

hit by a sudden thought he speculated These must be the elemental particles

Standing in the middle of the street with people passing by and even through him, his eyes fell on a person’s neck making his eyes go wide with astonishment.

He saw a very small creature resembling a parasite attached to the back of every human young and old. it had a long tongue sticking out of its mouth waving through the air as it ate the elements. Occasionally its rear would release a ball of either dark or light element. The parasites of some people were completely black. These parasite looked rotten as they released a chilling sinister aura looking at them Brian felt his soul throb, the black vortex in his body started to rotate much faster, he felt a tremendous urge to devour them like a hungry predator.

What the hell are those things… parasites? What will happen if I swallow them

A middle aged man walked towards Brian he was wearing a black suit and was carrying a brown hand bag with a facial expression full of lust he glanced at a high school girl’s ass licking his fat lips.

The parasite on his neck was devouring the particles with a rate much faster than the others, the black aura it gave was much more potent than its other companions while having a vulgar feel to it.

Seeing the parasite the urge to swallow came to him like a tide, it was extremely severe much different from the other ones he saw. Blinded by his hunger Brian instinctively ripped the parasite of the man’s neck

Grabbed by Brian the parasite shivered and gave a piercing cry filled with unending despair and unwillingness.

Unperturbed by its pitiful throes Brian swallowed the parasite, landing in his mouth it dissolved into a stream of dark energy, which was then devoured by the spinning vortex causing a cool sensation to spread through his chest

“Huh” Brian looked at his chest to his surprise he noticed a tiny black crystal the size of a grain of sand forming inside the vortex. The crystal continued to grow only to stop by growing double its previous size.

“How can?! ...Yes, the third eye” looking through his normal eyes he noticed that he couldn't see the black crystal

The golden eye seemed to have lifted a veil of his mind allowing him to peer into the dimension containing all magical things.

The man on the other hand gave a grunt and fell on the ground after a few seconds his eyes rolled over exposing the white of his eyes, white foam started to emerge from his mouth as his body started to wither and age at a visible rate when the withering stopped all that was left of the man was skin and bones. Noticing the body the sorrounding people started to scream and run in all directions

Hearing the screams Brian woke up from his revere, he found it hard to comprehend what he had done, he couldn’t feel a shred of guilt after killing a man.

he blamed his emotional condition but he couldn’t help but reconsider.

“It isn’t that simple” It was a fundamental difference.

Shrugging his shoulders Brian once more concentrated his gaze towards the black crystal, he welled to move it, and to his surprise it started to move per his will. The moment the crystal left the black vortex the locket on his neck started to vibrate and a force of suction appeared from within which broke of Brian control and sucked the crystal within.

“What the…”

The locket released a ray of piercing red light causing a series of letters to appear in his sight
