Chapter 6 - CHAPTER 5:- Appearance Of The LORD

Svarbhan asked Vaelith, "What is your true intention? Why are you here? I know the species still exists together, but there is still an untold hostility." He said this while they were having dinner in Svarbhan's apartment. Without paying much attention to his words, Vaelith continued eating his part of the meal while trying to change the topic of discussion. "I come from a place where survival means everything and we are not some violent species. We have intelligence to communicate and we are very well versed in adapting to our current environments.", Vaelith said while eating his meal with interest like he has never touched dishes like in his entire life, and continued "But, I have to give it to you human species who have every delicacies at their fingerprint. It's like it is very natural for you people to prepare these dishes.", to which Svarbhan replied "Well I appreciate your compliment about us. I am still curious how you ended up here?", Vaelith saw the curious gazes Svarbhan was glancing at him and after releasing a small sigh he began to narrate his tale "As you know these Voids connect us but there are 5 types of Void, firstly the VERDANT ABYSS, which the green-black coloured Void indicating LOW level threat. Then comes OBSIDIAN RIFT, which is purple-black coloured Void indicating MODERATE level threat. Then comes DUSK MAW, which is crimson-silver coloured Void indicating HIGH level threat. Then comes ECLIPSE NEXUS, which is gold-black coloured Void indicating CATASTROPHIC level threat. At last it is NYX SINGULARITY, which is white-violet coloured Void indicating EXTINCTION level threat. Legend says that we exist due to the happening of the Nyx singularity event. To counter these events, every species has its combat batons already ready. Every species, except for the human species, was born with powers initially, but humans had something that every other species lacked, that is, an ego. As the time passed, every species also gained ego and with powers in hand began to rapidly develop, and the rate of development was beyond anyone's comprehension. If I am not wrong, the first Void that appeared on your planet was back in 2073 after your species achieved something big. It was the obsidian rift.", listening to it, Svarbhan was very intrigued.

"Are you implying that you are weak compared to other species and individuals out there? You came out from the verdant abyss, which is considered to be the low level threat?", I asked curiously, to which Vaelith made a face which indicated that I hit a nerve that I shouldn't have. "I am not weak boy, I was fighting some weaklings to raise my strength and hone my skills, but due to some certain incident I ended up being trapped here," he said while raising his voice in irritation, which seemed to me like he was throwing a tantrum because things didn't go his way. Seeing him like this, I didn't press the matter any further. Seeing me not pressing the matter any further, Vaelith asked, " But, boy, tell me, why are you not surprised to see me, and you are also not scared for some reason. It is like you are already familiar with it.", to which I replied "Oh silly me, did I forget to mention that every species coexist in this realm? Moreover, you were so busy in stalking me that you wouldn't have noticed that even in my classroom there were children of my age that weren't human. So yeah, I have grown accustomed to it." Seeing me explain it, Vaelith was very much confused, but he again inspected me and said with a playful voice "Oh I see now, so everyone coexist here huh? I must have overseen some things, but I was not stalking you.", he particularly said the word stalking emphasizing it with an angry tone.

After discussing some other matters, we went to sleep and the next morning when I woke up I walked to the living room to see some freshly cooked food waiting for me on the table. Seeing this, I was shocked because I didn't know who did this. Seeing my shocked face, Vaelith said with a monotonous tone "What? Come and get your food before it gets cold. Didn't I say our species are very adaptable? We learn things very quickly." After that, I went to school and Vaelith accompanied me. "So how is your friend's health, is he getting any better?", to which I replied "He is doing well, his recovery is going well.", on the way to the school, an unexpected thing happened yet again. A sudden force burst, but this time I was not affected because Vaelith shielded me from it by standing firmly in front of me. The time around us froze with only me and Vaelith unaffected. "What happened? What is this?" I asked worriedly to Vaelith. To which Vaelith replied with a serious tone, "This is EclipsalStasis, another way to know that the DUSK MAW Void is enabled, it is a state where time ceases to exist, so to put it simply time just stops. Before you ask anything about how we are moving, we are because I am strong and I shielded you with my power engulfing you. How to escape from here then?", I asked very scared."Just need to defeat the thing that caused this void to appear.", Vaelith replied very calmly. "WOW!!!, A PLAY THING IN MY CASTLE!!!!, HA HA HA, THE LORD IS HAPPY TO GET GUESTS LIKE YOU, BUT WHAT IS THIS AN ICE ELF AND A HUMAN!!!, LORD IS HAPPY TO PLAY WITH YOU. BE GRATEFUL THAT YOU EVEN CAN WITNESS ME. HA!! HA!! HA!!", a creature said very loudly sitting on a throne and it was very short. The creature seemed to be arrogant but very powerful by just listening to the sheer intensity of the speech. A chill went down my spine just listening to to the sheer intensity in the creature's voice.
