The World: creating the peace

---After 27 minutes of waiting---

Kradr: Ahem...

"From afar, footsteps can be heard outside the gate from the throne room."

Fedfrosl: Yes, yes, I brought you a gift.

Lich###: What was brought this time?

Fedfrosl: What do you think?

Lich: I guess it's, well... let's say it's a sand egg.

Fedfrosl: No, I didn't guess. It's a sand scroll. And I won't tell you what its hidden meaning is, you'll think about it yourself.

"Fedfrosl opens the gates to the throne room."

Lich: As usual, good.

Calm madman: It's been a long time, demon lord.

Fedfrosl: Wow! Like people! Have you returned yet?

Calm madman: As you can see, yes. I have a new companion with me. This is a Kradr demon, most likely a Class S.

Fedfrosl: Nice to meet you. My name is Fedfrosl and I am a demon lord. Of course, it's strange to introduce myself in front of a demon when it's assumed that I'm his master. Ha-ha. Yeah, still, Calm madman, you were right. It's pretty strange that the demon lord doesn't rule over demons.

Calm madman: As you can see, my statement was not just like that.

Kradr: It's also nice to meet you.

Calm madman: Fedfrosl, we have come to you on business.

Fedfrosl: I hope it's not as impossible as the past?

Calm madman: It's pretty simple. We have already done one of the points. Otherwise, everything is also simple. So, first of all, if you would like to meet your sister, then I can make a portal in both directions. And the last point, I would like to pick up my companions from the living room and, after saying goodbye, go for a walk to my brother.

Fedfrosl: Yes, indeed; it sounds simple. Well, I shouldn't have a meeting with my sister so soon. Your friends are still in the living room, resting. Should I escort you or ask for a lich?

Calm madman: Yes, I think you can escort us.

Fedfrosl: Then let's go through. We're going to the second floor.

"Fedfrosl went to the left of the throne, where there was a staircase to the second floor."

--- After a while---

Fedfrosl: As I remember, the old man lives in the left room, and the girl on the right, where the dragon is.

Calm madman: Okay, thanks. Will you come in with us or go on business?

Fedfrosl: Yes, I can talk to you, I don't seem to have any business.

Calm madman: Well, no, I got a little mad here and the Supreme Court is dealing with the cook.

Fedfrosl: So, what happened?

Calm madman: Well, I cut it in half and later we revived it.

Fedfrosl: Okay, then I'll leave. You gave me a case after a long time. That's it, have a good time.

"The calm madman nodded after Fedfrosl, who was coming down the stairs."

Kradr: Have a nice day.

"A calm madman knocked on the door where old man Dragr lived."

DRAGR: Yes, you can come in.

"The calm madman opened the door and entered the room."

Calm madman: Listen, you don't have a bad room.

Dragr: Sir, I greet you.

"Dragr abruptly got out of bed and stood trembling from the fact that he had done nothing useful during this time."

Calm madman: Don't be afraid, I'm here to pick you up.

Kradr: Hello, may I introduce myself, sir?

Calm madman: Please don't call me that, you don't serve me at all. Yes, you can introduce yourself.

Kradr: I am one of the loyal subjects of Lord Faceless, an S-class Kradr demon. I am here of my own free will, not by contract.

Dragr: Hello, my name is Dragr. I walk with a Calm madman at will, and no more. He's an old man himself, but he used to work as a mercenary in a mine. Killed monsters stealing powerful ore.

Calm madman: Well done. Now for Bella.

"All three left the room, turning left, the calm madman knocked on Bella's door."

BELLA: M...

Dragr: She's probably asleep.

"The door opens a crack."

Bella: Mm... yes... What did you want, m..?

Calm madman: First of all, get dressed properly, so you won't be ashamed, then. Secondly, pack up and we'll go.

Bella: M? Aah! Thank you so much, um. I'm sorry!- I'm sorry!- Easier! Please forgive me, an uncultured girl, for coming out in just a T-shirt and underpants...

Calm madman: So, you have 10 minutes. Dragr, it also concerns you to pack your things.

Dragr and Bella: Okay.

--- After 10 minutes---

Calm madman: Guys, time's up, it's time to go out!

DRAGR: Yes, I'm here.

Calm madman: Bella is not here. Bella!

BELLA: Yes?

Calm madman: We're leaving, if you want to come with us, then catch up, but no one forces you. But I don't think you'd want to work or be a test subject to live here without my protection.

"Calm madman, Dragr, Kradr descended from the second floor and went to the exit of the throne room."

Bella: Wait!- Oh, wait! You are welcome!

Calm madman: Do you need it? - You come to us. Did we give you time? They gave it to me. Now I'm on my own.

Bella: Oh. * Damn it.*

"The calm madman did not stop walking towards the exit of the throne room. Bella ran in a hurry, and not breathing evenly due to shortness of breath, to a pack of companions and a Calm madman."

BELLA: Ah. I still caught up with you.

Calm madman: Well done.

"The calm madman opened the huge gate and everyone went out the gate, after which it closed."

Dragr: May I ask? And where are we going now?

The calm madman: You have two options, no, even three. First, you are all coming with me and have been waiting for almost 5 years to go to another universe with me. The second one, you two are heading home, and in almost 5 years I and Kradr will be in another universe and in another 5 years we are looking for you, hoping that you will want to turn around. The third one, also you, the two of you go to the house of one of you, living on equal terms, and after 10 years I find you if you come back. Now, choose, but only one at a time. Dragr, you're the first.

Dragr: Uh, well, me...

Bella: And why is he the first?

Calm madman: Yes, because you, in general, came later than everyone else. Wasn't that clear?

BELLA:...

Dragr: I'll continue, I think the best option is to send us home, but in this case we can go to different places and it will be very difficult for you to find us. Therefore, I think that the third one is more optimal.

Bella: Okay, I agree with the old man. This is a reasonable statement.

Calm madman: Then it's settled. Kradr, you're coming with me and no refusals are accepted. And you're going to Dragr's house. After 5 years you will live in Bella's house, but if something, just both of you, does not suit, then go to another house. If it doesn't suit you anyway, then go to that very bar. If you have any questions or demand for money, then write it off to me; I can at least pay if necessary.

Dragr: Good.

Bella: More or less, I agree and I won't object. After all, it seems to be a good alignment.

Calm madman: In that case, after leaving the territory of the demon lord, we will disperse and you will decide for yourself what and how, if there are questions.

BELLA: Yes, well.

--- After all the vast territory of the demon lord---

"Bella and Dragr said goodbye to the Calm Madman and Kradr. And both went towards the city, when the Calm Madman and Kradr headed towards the field behind the Green Cloud forest."

Kradr: May I ask?

Calm madman: Yes, ask.

Kradr: And why can't we move through portals, it's clear that it's not safe, but you seem to have purchased a sedative or something?

Calm madman: Yes, that's right. I'd forgotten about it. Put your hand on my shoulder and don't take it away until I tell you.

"Kradr put his hand with sharp nails on the shoulder of the Calm Madman. After that, they immediately began to fall into the portal below them and found themselves in the distance of the forest, which was in full view of the Calm Madman."

--- After 2 hours of teleportation---

Calm madman: That's it, you can take your hand away. We're almost there.

"Kradr took his hand off his shoulder. Both climbed the hill and saw the cave from afar."

Calm madman: So, Kradr, it's dangerous for you to go there.

Kradr: Why is that?

Calm madman: I'll tell you the background. When I just put the Faceless One in the cave and went in with him, it took about 5-10 minutes, after which my body became rotting and burned. I was rotting from the strong vital energy from the divine mana, which exceeded my density. And I was set on fire by the huge density of mana, which led me to almost posthumous imprisonment in a cave. And since I am immortal, it would last forever. At the moment, the situation is a little different, but similar. If you see it, you'll know what I mean. Mana tongues come out of the cave. Okay, it would just be mana, but it is incredibly compressed, which showed its true appearance in white. This shows that his mana is divine. Approaching him, you will most likely die almost instantly, but I will be able to move for about 2 minutes. I suggest you stay here and start meditating without disturbing him.

Kradr: Good.

--- After 4 years and 11 months---

Calm madman: Kradr! Kradr! Wake up!

Kradr: And? Did I fall asleep?

Calm madman: Apparently, but it's not the time to continue. Take a good look at the cave!

Kradr: What is it? Eh? What's it?

A calm madman: His mana began to merge with the natural one. The tree that started growing behind the cave now has not green leaves, but white ones. This, of course, will slow down the process of mana consolidation, but it does not change the matter. There will be fools who will try to pick apples or leaves from this tree and before reaching it they will turn into bones, and then into emptiness. Now, we need to go to another universe urgently!

Kradr: That's right, but how?

Calm madman: Now I'll show you how I do it, watch carefully.

"A calm madman joined his thumb and middle finger on his right hand, creating a kind of circle. By bending the middle finger, slightly inward, he created something similar to a head with a nose. He put the index finger on top of the middle finger and straightened the little finger, while the ring finger remained in the position between the little finger and the middle finger. So his folded fingers created the head of a hare or rabbit. Then he raised his hand so that the head was where it created something like a circle, near the right eye. He closed his right eye and, moving his hand away from the eye, bent his thumb, making the head of a rabbit or hare more oval."

Calm madman: Rabbit hole, open!

"A portal appeared in the air, not on the surface, but not as usual. He was like a black hole. All previous portals were blue - blue with no depth of space beyond that side of the portal and without any signs of existence, on the other side, of an open portal. This same portal created the illusion of infinite depth that devoured light, gravity and time."

Kradr: Wh-what is it?

Calm Madman: A technique connected to magic that was given to me by the progenitor, and I call it the rabbit hole, for the convenience of activation and association.

Kradr: And what's on the other side?

Calm madman: You'll find out how we get to the other side, haha. Okay, this is not the time to talk. The sooner we get there, the sooner we'll be here. Come on, let's go.

"The Calm madman jumped into the portal and Kradr, imitating the Calm Madman, also jumped into the portal. Soon, the interuniverse portal was closed. Since the technique works, after activation, within 1 minute."
