“You seem completely uninjured how did you save me even without being scratched.”

“I was injured but after you passed mana, recovery was abnormally speedy. But on the other hand, how am I supposed to help with your recovery? I can transfer mana but don’t know if it would be enough to…”

He suddenly stopped talking and looked in a certain direction. Then he looked at our surroundings. We were on a street-like place; it wasn’t that wide of a road but other than that everything was the same. On both sides there were building big and small all wrecked down. He went to the closest door and tried to open it. And the door opened.

“What’s wrong?” He looked in the same direction and then looked at me. He helped me up and signaled to stay silent. Then he walked to the building and made me sit again and closed the door. He turned back and signaled to check my scenario box and opened his own. Survive, you are in a different kingdom and powerful forces are trying to hunt you down.

Wtf… not again

I looked at it again, I tried to look for a way to escape or at least a map or something but everything was in vain. I looked up to look at Anik, to ask him about the situation.

But what I saw was enough for my entire body to feel a chill. A huge orc was standing right in front of me, where Anik was originally standing. I looked around for him and saw him lying on the other side. There was blood all around him. It wasn’t these orc’s blood. Blood was dripping from his forehead, dripping down and staining his eyes red. There seemed another injury on his thigh. He looked in terrible condition. But how… when…? He looked at me with desperate eyes as if trying to tell me something, he wanted me to run away. I felt like I could read his mind. I felt my consciousness flowing out of my body. It felt as if I was looking at the entire situation from the 3rd person’s perspective. When I tried to grasp the situation I felt as if I was sucked back into my body again and instead of the ground, I found myself in the air. That huge orc held me and giggled like a kid… It was a baby orc? So huge?? It really was a kid. Dying in the hands of a kid was painful. Not because it hurt my ego but because the orc was clueless about what he was doing and shook me like a toy up and down left and right like I was a toy. Suddenly it made a frustrated voice and threw me away like a small doll. I'll definitely take good care of my toys if I survived today. I landed not so away from Anik. My arm and abdomen both made me feel like I was going through some torture in hell. I heard cracking sounds from my body. I looked at Anik, who was on the brink of passing out. He definitely can’t do anything anymore. I passed mana to him and looked at the orc in front of me, the other orc was sitting not so away from Anik but it seemed busy in his world.

I wanted to laugh at our situation. Feels like I had no other option but to use my imagination. I focused but a sudden message interrupted me.

Your power has been reduced by 80% because of the death of your partner.

WHAT!!! Anik?... I looked at the place he was supposed to be lying… No, it ain’t possible. He can’t die… The orc was giggling as he looked at his foot… His foot was clearly on the spot where it was supposed to be Anik… Did he die? So easily? He was the main lead! How can he die so early?!!!! The orc who was supposed to be in his own world… how did he do that so silently?? So fast… I had just turned my head but…

“NO!!!”

“No no no…” I held my head and I don’t know for how long I kept murmuring nos.

When I opened my eyes it wasn’t the same scene anymore.

I still was in the middle of my side people protecting me. I looked around that girl was still alive. She was trying to say something but my ears were buzzing heavily. Nevertheless, I kept looking around. The guy I killed was alive as well. I looked at myself I was uninjured. I looked around for Anik he wasn’t around. He wasn’t there earlier as well. I don’t think he is dead. Wait… what just happened? My skills window was still open. I tried remembering… I was trying to focus on future premonition and then it didn’t work… Maybe it did work. It did make sense… then it didn’t make any sense but I was sure that this was the case. I need to end this as soon as possible. How do I call Anik here? Imagination?? But it made the whole thing worse in the first place. But to win this fight without turning into a demon I need him. I don’t know what his powers are but at least I can pass mana to him… pass mana, I can pass it to my teammates.

“Guys! Gather around”

Everyone looked at me. As expected they had to take orders from me. I can’t take a lot of time. I started passing mana from the people on the frontlines then slowly I transferred to the ones behind them and then to the people around me. This time my mana was just blue, really a very soothing blue; it felt nice to see it. It seemed a kid’s game to finish this now. Everyone was roaring with sudden power flow. I felt weak, I don’t know if it was from excessive use of mana or the premonition but I wanted to end it as soon as possible. I was barely keeping myself together. I just witnessed three deaths and felt horribly in pain. I needed a break… as soon as possible. Anik… is he alive? I was able to use my mana normally without any reductions means he should be okay.

I looked around to see the progress. As expected in less than half an hour all the members of the enemy troop were on their knees. As soon as the head was on the knees a castle appeared from behind them.

You have successfully cleared your scenario. You are now officially the ruler of this place.

“Don’t kill them. Tie them and take them with us to the prison.” I moved towards the head. His eyes were still giving sly feeling but he seemed to have given up. Suddenly he smiled eerily. Something was off. I looked around everyone was tied what can he possibly do?… shit not everyone was tied. I looked around to look for the healer. I saw the guy paired with that girl running towards me hurriedly. Even before I could look behind I felt a piercing pain in my abdomen. Not again c’mon I didn’t even become a demon this time… I thought before passing out.

…

Ahhaa! I had a long sleep I thought before opening my eyes. What I saw in front of my eyes had me questioning myself for a second. The ceiling had a chandelier hanging but what made me question myself wasn’t it but rather a kid hanging upside down from there looking at me dead in the eye as if staring in a void.

“Shit- What the hell are you…”

“Hey kiddo, get down here.” It was a familiar voice and a voice that made my brain recover all the memories before passing out. Entering that cloud thing, coming to this scenario stuff, skills…future premonition… my mind felt like going blank at this moment. I looked at Anik getting out of the room with that weird kid. He was alive. He was alive and well and was in a single piece… nothing bad happened. No orcs… Orcs? Is our kingdom that close to the area of orcs? Kingdom lol I am getting used to here at a considerable pace. I smiled a little.

“You seem a lot better to be smiling already.” Said that girl from earlier. She entered the room with an elderly lady right after Anik left.

“Yeah, I guess so.” I smiled and looked at the lady.

“This is our healer.”

“Ohhhhh okay finally found her.”

“Huh?”

“That guy pretended to be heal-“ shit that was in premonition.

“That guy has already been beheaded but how did you know he’s the healer?” she seemed to misunderstand what I said but

“That guy was BEHEADED??!”

“Yeah, he was beheaded in public to make an example for everybody.” I mean it felt great to listen to these words, what era are we exactly living in? Execution in public wow!... what!! Execution in public???? Killing humans in front of other humans, who tf- did that?
