The three stopped when they reached the ground floor, staring at the figure in the entrance. It was the old man from before. A bald, gray-bearded man wearing a black suit and white gloves.

"Stand behind me, that guy's the one who manages this place." Said the purple haired girl as she placed her hand ahead.

"Why do you run, young lady? I promise you no harm will be done to you if you come with me. Your father has personally requested from one of the refugees that I take you there. Don't you wish to be reuinited-"

Aurora's cold eyes glowed as she emitted an unconscious cry of bloodlust as she said, "Don't call that man my father.".

Freya and Violet became increasingly confused after witnessing this interaction.

'Have they met before?'

"What's going on? This is a hospital! Why are you destroying everything?"

The receptionist had suddenly approached and touched the manager's shoulder

"Did you not hear me? I asked-"

In a flash, the receptionist burst towards the ground. His head smashed into the ground and cracked open, causing his brain to spill out.

Crash!* *Splatter*

"Do not touch me, Filth."

After their eyes froze open, Freya dropped to her knees, not being able to grasp what had just happened. She asked with trembling lips.

"What...?"

"Ah, right... You must be Realm's younger sister. That sneaky rat has escaped my palm again... Maybe I should punish you a little to remind him of his place...?" He asked.

"A-A-Ah…" Freya was speechless, her eyes teary as words failed to escape her mouth from fear.

As soon as Aurora and Violet saw this, they immediately stepped in front of Freya and defended her. "Don't worry. He's not going to hurt you.

This resulted in him taking a step forward as a result. The ground beneath his feet cracked as the pressure in the room changed once more.

Almost as though an overload of weight had fallen on their shoulders, the two were struggled stay on their feet.

[Gravity Manipulation]

Another step was taken by the man, while this time the Gravity increased again. Violet was also struggling to keep herself up due to the use of telekenesis on her body, while Aurora, who was still in recovery, was forced to hang onto a pillar of ice she had created.

[Telekenesis!]

[Ice lance!]

With her telekinetic abilities, Violet attempted to pick him up and chuck him out, but no matter how hard she tried, he refused to move. It felt as if she was trying to lift a large boulder way past her weight limit.

Violet launched nearby desks and chairs at the man, while Aurora launched a lance made of ice right at him.

Their hearts sank, however, when their projectiles crashed into the ground beneath, not even making it two meters from him.

Violet concluded, "He must have the ability to manipulate gravity... What an unfair match up....".

Her eyes glancing at Aurora before she suggested. "I'll try something… After that, we make a run for it to the other exit…"

Despite Aurora's nod, Freya was still trembling on the floor, paralyzed from fear. She couldn't speak up. Aurora snatched her hand as she prepared to run with her on the signal.

As Violet stretched out her arms, the window behind her shattered. The shards of glass were propelled at the man, but crashed into the ground before they could get close.

That was all just a diversion.

Violet's arms trembled as she thrust them downward.

*Creak* *Crack*

As if an earthquake were approaching, the room began to tremble. With an unamused look, the man looked up, only to watch part of the ceiling suddenly collapse on him.

"Now! Run-"

Violet was interrupted when he suddenly appeared in front of her, his fist inches away from her stomach.

[Gravity Manipulation: Zero Gravity]

"We can't have that now, can we?" He asked.

*BAM!* *CRASH!*

Before the debris collapsed on him, he leapt straight at them, reducing most of his body's weight and achieving unprecedented speeds. Aurora who watched, tried creating a shield of ice, but there was simply no time.

Violet was sent flying straight past Freya, crashing into the wall behind them. She widened her scarlet eyes from the pain that zapped through her body. The man appeared again before her before she could even have a chance to recollect herself.

It would have been much more straightforward for Violet to propel him away using telekenis since he no longer had any weight, and that she tried, but-

[Gravity manipulation: 200 Kilogram tackle.]

As soon as she could, however, he had increased his weight once more and was heading straight towards her, carried by the momentum. Because of that, it had failed. All she could do was to slow him down for a split second - but it wasn't enough.

With the swing of his face only centimeters away from her face, she closed, she reflexively closed her eyes, bracing for impact, when all of the sudden-

[Pause Step]

*Wham!* *Crash!*

She heard a crash. For her, it was strange since she hadn't felt any pain or contact. Slowly, she opened her eyes to see the back of a young man standing in front of her. It was the same guy who she had seen at the restaurant. Gray.

He stood on one leg whilst the other was extended in the position of a kick. The man crashed through the wall behind the receptionists, disappearing into the room.

Violet was stunned. Despite using gravity to increase his weight, Gray was able to kick the old man across the room.

He turned around before speaking. "I'm sorry, Auro-" Realizing his mistake, he brought his face closer to violet's, tilting her head up by the chin slightly. "Hm? You're not Aurora." He added with surprise.

Violet's face flushed red from how close he was before pushing him away and pointing at the two on the floor behind him.

Gray turned around and his eyes widened. There stood Aurora with her eyes watered up as she hold onto a young light Blonde haired girl who appeared to have been traumatised.

There was desctruction all around, a dead body splattered on the floor, and remnants of Aurora's ice. Judging by the situation, it didn't take much to realise what had happened.

Gray gave violet a pat on the head, thanking her before he pause stepped in front of Freya and Aurora.

"Gray… I'm sor-"

Aurora was interrupted as Gray, suddenly placed his index finger on her lips to stop her from speaking. "We'll talk after." He added with a smile, before patting her head.

Gray could tell she was probably still thinking about the interaction they had in their room before she stormed off. It was also something he wanted to talk about, but now wasn't the time.

With veins bulging out of his neck, Gray grit his teeth. The smile still on his face as he released blood lust towards the man in the other room.

"I'll be back… Wait for realm, he went to look for his sister." Said Gray, struggling to keep a calm tone.

[Pause Step]

Aurora nodded, and he vanished.

"Gray! Did you see my sister anywhere?! I couldn't find her anywhere" Realm asked, his expression completely shaken as he appeared out of thin air.

"Brother…?" Freya called out to him.

Turning his head to the side, he could see his with her knees on the floor on tears storming down her eyes. Once she saw him, she quickly got up leaping at him for a hug, before bawling her eyes out.

"Brother…! He… He killed someone…! I… I was so scared…!" She cried out.

Listening to his sister struggling to explain whilst her voice cracked. It made something inside of Realm, snap.

———————————— In a far away land, outside of earth.

Countless naval fleets could be seen positioned floating in the air. One by one, they entered the giant portal ahead of them. The leading and largest ship, carried a dignified humanoid horned man, a man who was seated on his thrown.

"MY WARRIORS!! TONIGHT WE GO TO WAR!!!" He roared.
