Chapter 36: Chapter 21 (The Dead Titan (2))
6 days have passed. Ron and Dream, after the night they slept together, have gotten a lot closer and they now sleep together and acts more like a married couple.
And today was the wedding day of Carter and Lia. The ceremony was about to end, and people were cheering for both. Ron and Dream also went and teased them.
A few weeks have passed since Carter's wedding. Carter and Lia now were living together happily. Life was happy for everyone in Hero Town.
But in those days, people of the cult did the ritual again because what they wanted didn't happen. They were told that their wish would be granted in 6 days, but more than two month had passed. They were not getting any response from even after doing the ritual several times so they gave up.
Next Day, Ron and Dream went outside for a walk in the morning. Dream always wears that kind of clothes that hides her entire body, except her eyes. She only shows herself to Ron.
While walking Ron asked her, "Can you tell me how we met for the first time in detail."
Dream took a deep breath and spoke, "We met in some village. I was with my father and my twin sister, we were staying in that village for a few days, I met you there. First, I was not allowed to talk to anyone, but when I met you, my father allowed it. I don't remember anything more."
"Can you take me that place where we first time met?" Ron asked.
Dream replied, "I think that place was located on the location of Bermuda Triangle. People from outside world called it "The Land of Bermuda."
"Land of Bermuda. My mother once talked about something like that and I also saw it in a dream. That aside, how did I end up sleeping for hundreds of years without any memory of it." Ron spoke
Ron and Dream were talking this suddenly felt a strong wave of Black Sorcery. The entire planet rumbled, Ron and Dream were standing in a park. Suddenly, a hand came out of beneath the land and caught Dream leg. Ron uses Blade of Vengeance and cuts that hand, then a head comes out. A large wave of people starts coming out of land.
Ron and Dream connected to each other telepathically and flew in air, Dream left because she had been given a task by Ron. Suddenly, time stopped and everyone dead or alive froze in one place. But Ron could move he sensed a strong wave again, Ron flew towards that place.
Ron saw a guy hiding his appearance, he had some kind of stone in his hand. The stone was glowing (Yellow colored). Lightning fell on that guy, but he dodged. It was from Ron, "Where do you think you're going?"
"How can you move while time has been stopped". He spoke in a monstrous voice
Ron teleported behind him, but that guy vanished like he had teleported, that guy appeared again standing in the sky away from Ron. He looked down at Ron and flew away in opposite direction. Ron used teleportation and tried to catch him, Ron was about to catch his collar, but he also had teleportation.
Ron was busy figuring out where he went, but he was standing behind Ron. That guy thought that Ron wouldn't leave him without a fight. That guy teleports in front of Ron and punched him. Ron did the same after taking that hit.
Ron and that guy was using teleportation and fighting. Ron was fighting while teleporting and inside and outside of teleportation dimension. They were hitting each other during teleporting. After fighting for some time, that guy was overwhelmed by Ron's teleportation and strength.
That guy paused in the middle of the fight, Ron teleported behind him and was about to hit him, but that guy turned and caught Ron by the throat. Ron was shocked, "How did you-
A few dagger came out of nowhere and stabbed Ron in the back. That guy took out his sword and was about to stab Ron, Ron teleported and kicked him on his head from behind, sending him flying and destroying a few buildings on him. That guy got up, his palm pointing at Ron. A dark type of energy went flowing from his hand to Ron, Ron dodged but that was what the enemy wanted he teleported behind Ron, Ron turned he stabbed Ron on his liver.
Ron coughed blood, then caught that guy from his throat. A light released from Ron's hand like something was about to summoned.
[You have activated 'Blade of Vengeance']
That guy coughed blood, he looked down, Ron had summoned Blade of Vengeance in his hand. The blade pierced through the ribs.
Ron took off his face cover and Ron was surprised, he had no mouth, no nose, no ears, only eyes. That guy glared, releasing a light from his eyes which made Ron let him off. He teleported and ran.
That guy went to "The World of Dark Souls" and handed that yellow stone to Dr. Thomas.
"So, you fought Ron? How strong is he? Can he become a problem to me?"
That guy denied by moving his head.
As soon as that guy left time continued moving. Ron looked here and there but there was no sign of those dead people. That was just an illusion to distract people.
Ron settles on a bench at the side of the road. Dream telepathically asks Ron to come. Ron teleports, he sees woman standing with Dream.
"Hi, My name is Aurora. Nice to meet you." That woman spoke.
Dream spoke, "She wanted to meet you, so she can discuss something."
Ron spoke looked toward Aurora and spoke, "Yes, please state your business."
"Before we begin, I also want to involve Carter, Lia and Police into our discussion." Aurora spoke.
Ron called everyone and everyone came in a few minutes.
"Now, shall we begin" Aurora spoke.
Aurora landed her foot on the land twice. The reality started to change. It looked like Ron, Carter and the other were moving through some kind of wormhole. Clocks and doorways could be seen here and there. After some time, the wormhole vanished, and everyone was in open space. An infinite amount of small crystals was located a centimeter apart from each other.
"Those infinite crystals represent infinite timelines." Aurora spoke.
"Where are we going? And what is this place?" Lia spoke. While Carter and the other remained calm and just observed everything.
"We are going to a place that exists between 1st and 2nd layers of reality. You are the people of 1st layer. This place transcends this entire 1st layer of reality. From this place you all are like you are fictional characters to me Your laws and concepts doesn't work on me." Aurora spoke.
"What is in the second layer?" Locki asked
Aurora replied, "The Beyonders. They are the people of the 2nd layer of reality. They are beyond your cosmology, our laws, so they are Beyonders. They view even me as fictional character and are called "Narrative Gods" . They are infinitely boundless to this reality"
"Narrative? Like you mean in fiction? Carter spoke.
"Yep, they view you and even me like fictional character. And they can even watch you." Aurora spoke.
"Miss Aurora, was it? Can Beyonder be a threat to us." Dream asked.
Aurora spoke, "it depends on if you make them angry or not."
Aurora with Ron and the others reaches a place; it is a large garden stretched to infinity.
Aurora further spoke, "Well, why don't you take a seat."
A large dinner table summoned out of nowhere. Everyone sat down except Aurora, she started talking.
"I need you help. An evil sorcerer is trying to defeat the watcher of the universe and take the throne himself." Aurora spoke.
She continued, "He is trying to collect the seven stones, collecting the seven stones is the only way to reach at the palace of the "Watcher of the universe". He is also trying to revive a cosmic entity and another being which I don't know about. Will you lend me your strength?"
"Can I ask something?" Ron asked.
"Go ahead"
"What is a 'Cosmic Entity'?" Ron asked.
"An entity that transcends space, time and dimensionality." Aurora replied.
"We can fight normal monster or entities, but fighting a cosmic entity, we are too weak for that. We don't have any special kind of powers." Lia said.
"No, you people have extra ordinary powers. You guys haven't fully awakened them." Aurora replied.
"How can we awaken our powers?" Locki spoke.
"I might be able to help you with that." Aurora spoke.
She gave an address to Carter, she said, "This guy will help you." Then, she said that she herself will help Lia, and she'll stay here for the time being. For Dream, she already has a good grasp of her abilities. And Dream was pregnant, about which no one knew except Ron. So, Ron would never let her fight. That's what she thought.
For Ron and Police (Locki) they'll train together in a time chamber for 4 years in Earths timing. They'll come out after two years and after a few days return to the chamber. Ron told Aurora about Dream being pregnant.
Ron and Locki entered the time chamber. It was an infinite void of nothingness created by Aurora outside the macrocosm of reality layers. They entered after saying goodbye to everyone.
Aurora sent Carter back to Hero Town, and She started training Lia.
