[Before the Avalanche]

Deak saw Moku who was being beaten badly by his treant. He smiled in the satisfaction that this battle was coming to an end soon.

"Teacher, shouldn't we just capture him? Some alchemists must really want to research this first evolved monster" Sean gave Deak the second opinion.

"That's right teacher, even though he is dangerous but you can definitely make him helpless and catch him" Gojo agreed with Sean's opinion.

"My students you guys are too naive. You have no idea how big of a discovery we have this time. Do you think this orc will only be a guinea pig for the alchemists? No.. what really happened to this orc is more than you can imagine.

He is proof that there is another power in this world besides mana. If he were to be discovered by other mana species then their belief in mana would be shaken. They would try to find a way to obtain the power of this orc.

What do you think will happen if they succeed?

Then there will be a new classification of superpower users other than mages. What will happen next you can think for yourself!"

Sean and Gojo's faces changed.

Mana was no longer just a source of strength for mana species but also the foundation of their civilization.

Power is based on how close a person is to mana. Authority is based on how much territory rich in mana they can control. Wealth is based on how much a person owns things that store mana.

If powers other than mana were discovered then the entire foundation of civilization built on mana would be shaken. This was the same as what happened to the Mana Gods who built their power, authority, and wealth based on their ability to turn ordinary humans into mages. After the discovery of mana flows by the alchemists their power quickly collapsed. The same will happen to the mages if the power within Moku is discovered. Therefore the best way is to kill Moku and all the orc races.

"You're right teacher, sorry we were too rash!" Sean and Gojo bowed their heads to Deak.

"It's okay. I understand you guys are still young and naiv-- what the fuck?!!" Deak wanted to nod but suddenly his face froze and his eyes widened in disbelief.

Surprised to hear Deak suddenly cursing, Sean asked "Teacher, what's wrong??"

"I lost control of my treants!!!" Deak answered quickly, his face still frozen and his eyes still wide in disbelief.

Hearing that, Sean and Gojo were also surprised.

The three of them turned their eyes back to the Treant who was ganging up on Moku. The three treants that surrounded him suddenly stopped and were thrown backward. They seem to be pushed by something.

Deak was a Mana Child and his mana control was very strong. So it's impossible for Deak to make a mistake and lost the treants control just like that.

This can only happen if a mage who has the same spell faction as Deak tries to seize control of the treants. However, this is not possible for a level 3 constellation mage or another level constellation below it. Only a mage with a higher level constellation or another Mana Child of the same level as Deak could possibly do this.

"Elves!!!" Gojo who came to the same conclusion as Sean drew his sword.

The two of them turned into a standby position while continuing to look for the elves who might be hiding for their ambush. Sean activated his detect spell and did a massive mana search. However, the mana that is still disturbed by Deak's spell makes it difficult for him to find the suspect elf.

Before Gojo and Sean can do their search any further, Deak suddenly shouts "No!! It's not elves!! It's mana itself!! They take control of the treants, they feel threatened by something... Oh no!! We need to get away from here!"

The three treants stood up as if someone was tugging on their string. Their clenched fists were pulled back high before they dropped them with all their might. Each one of those fists plunged swiftly like a meteor about to hit the earth.

Deak and his two students scurried away from the place. Their faces turned pale as they felt the mana contained in the treants' fists.

Almost all of the mana in the treants' bodies was currently transferred to the tips of their fists.

And when those fists hit the ground...

BOOOOOOOOOMMMMMM!!!!!

The Meer continent seemed to lean. The wisps of mana that were in the treants' fists exploded and shattered their bodies. Meanwhile, the ground that the fist planted was like the surface of the water that had just been dropped by a stone. Ripple and rise like waves in the ocean.

The mana explosion sent Deak and his two students flying away. No one knows what happened to Moku.

...

In a world without stars, without moon, without sun. A realm without time, day, and night. There was only silence, not the serenity that made one fall into a deep sleep but the solitude that made the hairs stand on end.

"You did it" a voice rang out from the darkness, hoarse and shrill like the sound of an eagle swooping down on its prey, sounding deep and calm like a tiger waiting for its prey. He is Garuda the ruler of the sky and darkness.

But the darkness did not cover the whole world. There are still colors visible but the darkness can still make their light blurry. There is only one light that darkness cannot eat in this world. The light came from the shimmering staircase. The stairs that are not visible where their beginning and end.

"Yeah, I got help" an orc answered Garuda's statement. Even though he felt that it was not something that needed to be answered, he still answered it as a form of respect for the ruler of this realm as well as an opening for the conversation. There was something he wanted to ask.

"That's cheating" Garuda accused.

Garuda came out of the darkness and landed right in front of Moku. A golden body, a white face, and red wings, Its beak is like that of an eagle, but its body is like that of a human, and Every inch of its body displayed an unimaginable power. Garuda still looks the same as Moku remember it.

"Never telling me how to take advantage of the mind realm is also cheating." Moku narrowed his eyes disapprovingly.

Moku remembers when Garuda said "Welcome to the Mind Realm". He also recalled Garuda once saying that he had crossed the limits of his astral body and could become mind beings like him. Moku didn't understand what Garuda meant and thought that he was just congratulating him for advancing to the next level of evolution.

But Moku was wrong.

Breaking through the limits of the astral body is not just getting physical strength but beyond that. The current Moku race shouldn't be called orc anymore.

"It's not my job to tell you" Garuda shrugged his shoulders in defense.

"I've paid in full but you still don't provide adequate service if this is a restaurant you've already got 1 star and thousands of complaints" Moku pointed at Garuda's chest complaining.

"Unfortunately this is not a restaurant and you are not a customer, you are just someone who enters my house to get to the other house. So it's only natural that I don't serve you a drink or tell you where the toilets and bedrooms are" Garuda brushed off Moku's finger and then put hands on his waist.

Moku could only open and close his mouth like a breathless fish. Garuda's very reasonable interpretation left him speechless. He was silent then replied "...yeah you are right"

They both looked at each other and then fell silent. There was an awkwardness between them where Moku, who initially wanted to be angry, had to swallow the curse he had been thinking about. Meanwhile, Garuda feels that he has gone too far, as the gatekeeper of the Mind Realm, he has an obligation to be the guide of the first moksha pioneer of a race, like Moku who was the first pioneer of the orc race moksha. However, he was forced to dodge the clueless Moku because he didn't want to be blamed by him.

"...hmm then what are you going to do after this?" Garuda asked to break the awkwardness

"Of course, I will use the bathroom and bedroom in this house" Moku replied with a grin on his face.

"You know how to use it?" Garuda glanced at Moku's feet.

Moku's feet, which usually don't have footwear, are currently wrapped in a pair of beautiful sandals. The sandals were made of leather with a strap that tied up to the calf and formed a leg guard. Above the leg guard are two pentagonal gems of white and gold. This gem symbolizes the two forces of Moku's ability, namely the friction force and the spring force.

"If it's the ability of this sandal as I think, then my battle will end easily" Moku smiled confidently.

In Javanese legend, Gatotkaca has an armament in the form of sandals named Kasutpada Kacarma. When wearing it, he will be immune to all types of magic and can fly without being detected by enemy radar.

However, it seems the Kasutpada Kacarma that is currently at Moku's feet has a slightly different ability. These sandals are the link between Moku's astral body and his mind body. With these sandals, Moku believes that he can transform into a mind being with one thought.

While the two diamonds above the leg guard symbolize the two forces of Moku. With these two gems, Moku no longer has to struggle to form a non-friction or full-friction biofield when using his powers. All he had to do was think about it and then he could take out Brajamusti or Padakacarma with ease.

"Well.. Good luck I guess" Garuda smiled and nodded.

"Well thank you.. see ya" Then he disappeared.

In the blink of an eye, Moku returned to the Bog forest right where he had disappeared before. Moku looked around him and his eyes become dumbfounded.

What was in his sight was not a Bog forest filled with tall trees and wild grass. What his eyes showed was empty land as far as the eye could see. He seemed to be in a hole made by a meteor that crashed into the earth.

"What fuck hell happen?!!!" shouted Moku in surprise.
