Chapter 300: White world
Eric and Perv both stared at each other in confusion and bewilderment. One moment earlier, they were in their houses, and suddenly they found themselves in this white world.
"How did you end up here?" Eric asked, feeling a bit fearful.
"Maybe this is God's punishment. I was going to steal my sister's cake. Oh God, please forgive me! I will be a good boy from now on. Wait— did you try stealing something too?" Perv suddenly questioned.
"No, I was just working on something," Eric replied as he walked closer to Perv.
"Hmph, I know why you're here. Since you and Lucian have been hiding something from me and playing by yourselves, God must have punished you too. Just wait, I'm sure Lucian will be here soon. He's also an evil— " Just while Perv was speaking, his words were interrupted by a sudden voice.
"Oh? Talking bad behind my back?"
After hearing this familiar voice, both Eric and Perv looked around. Then their eyes widened as they saw Lucian slowly floating down from the sky.
"Huh? N- No, I was just saying how long it had been since the three of us met like this. I didn't say that you are an evil creature from the race of Gorgons," Perv said hastily, wiping sweat from his forehead.
"..."
Lucian chuckled but didn't say anything. He landed in front of the two and waited for the barrage of questions.
"Wait, did you bring us here?" Eric suddenly asked as he thought of something.
"Yes, I did." Lucian nodded. It was time for the two of them to know more about the supernatural world; otherwise, when the calamity occurred, they would be too flustered.
"What?!! Are we both dead? Did you kill us and we arrived in heaven? Wait— you killed yourself too and arrived here? Hmm, I can understand for us two, but how did Eric end up in heaven?" Perv suddenly had a lot of meaningless questions.
"No, I haven't killed anyone, and you both are very much alive— just inside my White World," Lucian said with a smile. He knew the two were going to be quite confused for a while...
At least Eric was going to be. On the other hand, Perv's eyes were glittering with stars— he loved supernatural things too much, after all.
"White World? Wait, what is going on? It doesn't make any sense. I was clearly in my house just now." Eric felt a splitting headache. How could a sane person just believe that supernatural things exist in this world?
Only a lunatic like Perv could do that.
"Yes, it is difficult to digest it all, but it is the truth. Watch carefully." After speaking, Lucian extended his right hand, and in the next moment, it was covered by black flames.
"Woahhh!!" Perv was truly astonished.
Then Lucian used Velm and turned it into a large red-colored sword with black patterns. The two boys had no choice but to believe it now.
"I understand! So we three are the chosen ones! You got your power before us, and now it is our turn to get them, right? Tell me, what are my powers? Becoming a dragon? Ice Lord? Flame Emperor? Or— " Perv was too excited and didn't care about any other thing.
"Wait, let me explain things from the beginning." After taking a deep breath, Lucian began his explanation.
"On Earth, there are Gates that connect the Earth to different planets, and they are called Chasms..." Lucian began to explain various things in detail. He even told them about the existence of the Reverse Earth— after all, they would be seeing it quite soon.
The more they listened, the more shocked Eric became, while Perv was getting ecstatic. It was a dream come true for him.
"And that is all," Lucian said as his explanation ended. He gazed at the two's expressions and knew that at least both of them believed him.
"Wait, Chasms? Monsters? There is going to be a huge calamity befalling the Earth? Reverse Earth? Merging?" Eric held his head and muttered in shock— this was truly a lot to take in.
"There is a Reverse Earth where women rule? So the time for me to get a domineering girlfriend has finally come?" Perv nodded his head in excitement.
"Alright, let's go and enter the Chasm. After I get stronger, I will defeat all the monsters and save everyone. Sigh... As expected, I really am the chosen one." Perv sighed and shook his head.
"Stop joking. I am telling you all this so you can be careful. You'll notice the changes when a timer appears in the sky. When it is about to end, you should bring your family to my house. I can protect you," Lucian said with a serious expression.
"..." Both of them nodded. They completely believed in Lucian— even more so after he showed those abilities of his.
"Alright, I will send you back to your houses. When the time comes, just explain it to your family and bring them— whether they believe everything or not." Just as Lucian was about to bring them back, Perv interrupted.
"Wait, can you fly?"
It was past noon. The sky was bright, and all the people were busy with their daily lives.
At this moment, three figures could be seen floating in the air. They were like superheroes flying at a very fast pace.
Perv extended both his hands forward as he flew like Superman— he had finally fulfilled one of his biggest dreams.
On the side, even Eric was enjoying this new but fantastic experience.
The small group of three flew around freely as they laughed and chatted. All the earlier tension was gone, and they just strolled around.
Then the three landed in front of Perv's house. He was holding a cake they had brought on their way back, and he had a big smile on his face.
"Go back for now. Don't forget everything I told you today. Bring your family at the right time, and don't steal your sister's cake," Lucian said.
"Alright, I'll be waiting for our next flying session." Perv nodded and waved his hand as both his friends flew into the sky and soon disappeared.
'Zero, your ability really is much better now.' Lucian praised in his mind.
[Hehe, thanks. I knew I'm not useless.]
Soon, they landed in front of Eric's house. Lucian patted his shoulder and said:
"You aren't facing any kind of problem now, right? You can tell me if there is any issue. As you can see, I can resolve all your problems easily."
"Everything is much better now. The loans are paid off, and we still have quite some money left. There is absolutely no problem. I will bring my parents to your house when the time comes," Eric said with a smile.
"..." Lucian nodded and soon disappeared from Eric's sight. Echo sent the location of his house to his friends.
...
"Now it is time to return home. It's already been a day since I left." Lucian increased his speed and soon arrived at home, but before returning, he didn't forget to buy a couple of cakes.
It was better to eat something sweet before he breaks the disastrous news to them.
