"Three days, we went on that damned trip for three days and all we got in return was more injuries."

"It's fine, isn't it? You also managed to kill one of those Outer Gods."

"Fuck you, do you not see me all wrapped up in bandages?! You even said you knew that Reconstruction would be there."

"I said might."

Stepping out of the chamber of portals from in the World Tree late in the night after a three day long trip were Albert and Luka. Everything around them strangely quiet considering how many people usually stayed up the nights as well, but they were too tired to do anything about investigating the strangeness.

"Man, I am just going to kick back and gall asleep the moment I see a bed now."

"We have to take a look at what happened these last three days first," said Albert. The empty sleeve of his coat fluttered lightly, but not enough to push it anywhere.

"Strange…"

"What is?" Luka asked his old friend.

"There's not much room for wind, is there? In this place?"

Luka tilted his head.

"I don't think so, why?"

Albert shrugged. "Don't worry about it. Let's go and take a quick look, I'll make you some tea too."

"Hey, thanks."

Albert and Luka used their IDs and passed through the gates from the portal room of the World Tree and made their way deeper int o the passageways of the marvelous construct that the Worlds Alliance had built up.

All the World Trees in all the worlds, made with a great collaboration between the giants, dryads, dwarves and elves, and also all the insides and machinations that went into making it a functional base for the alliance, it was all a sign of how people were strong when they were united.

Albert always had a lingering sense of shame that he couldn't see it earlier, though he had seen it the World Trees be erected with his own eyes.

The office of the man that headed the brains of the World Alliance was one that suited his stature as a wise sage. He had been the one who had brought the way to connect all the worlds and also the way to defeat them after all.

They reached the office near the top of the World Tree while sharing small jokes, the small passageway that led to the rest of the place was narrow and dreary, heralded just by a gate at the front.

Albert placed his hand on the gate and leaned back.

"Luka," he said, his air changing completely.

Luka's hand rushed to his weapon. He shook his head as he spoke out loud. "Do you think you have some cookies to go along with the tea?"

Albert pointed at the doorknob and nodded. It was delicate, but he was certain that a spell had been used. If not for his extremely sensitive eyes, he might have missed it.

"I think I might be able to whip something up."

Albert stepped back and Luka took to the front. Their eyes and their expressions completely betraying the words they exchanged.

ραndαsnοvεl.cοm It was certain, whoever was on the other side was problematic. If Luka was unable to sense anyone and even Albert had a hard time identifying the person, he could be sure that someone terrifying was on the other side.

"That's nice. I think I am…"

Luka took in a breath and pulled his leg back.

"A little famished."

He kicked the door with all his strength and sent it flying to the back. Albert snapped his fingers and a spell activated, brightening the office.

The door that should have crashed past Albert's table was instead stopped in its tracks, and sitting there on the chair of the office's owner was a young man with deep black hair and black sunglasses, a giant grin on his face.

"Luka!" Albert yelped as his friend charged inside.

"Who the fuck are you now?" Luka screamed, you chose the wrong place to attack.

Luka charged ahead and swung his sword down. The man kicked the desk behind and held Luka's sword with his fingers, stopping it in it tracks.

He pivoted his feet and slammed a kick into Luka's chest, but instead.

"OW!" He screamed himself. "Fuck, what was that?!"

Luka grinned, Ki formed all around him and came hurtling at the man all at once.

The black haired man let go of Luka and dodged the attacks, instead, it hit Luka himself.

And again.

"Ouch! That stings!"

The man himself was hurt.

Luka looked back in great shock.

"How do you not have a single wound after that?"

The man inspected his body, ignoring Luka completely. "Did you put something on me? Ah, there it is."

In the middle of his fingers that he had used to hold the sword, he noticed light marks of Ki distortion. A black light rose from his fingers and burnt it off as Luka charged ahead once more.

At the same time, from behind the man, multiple bullets made their way. Albert had long since pulled out a gun hidden in the room and had taken a stance to gun him down.

No matter how he ran, Albert was certain that his movements wouldn't miss him. He could predict it, the direction this intruder would take, just like everything else it was simply a game of analysis.

The black haired man sighed.

It all happened too quick for even Albert to notice.

By them time he finished blinking, he was on the ground, piled up above him was Luka, and on top of them both sat the same black haired man.

"What…"

The man loosened his palm and all the bullets Albert had fired fell to the ground, clanking around.

"Who in the world…"

A small fairy fluttered down in front of the two at the bottom of the dog pile and waved her hands.

"Heya, kiddies!"

Albert's eyes widened.

"T-Titania…?"

"Then, this…" Luka hummed.

"Heya," The man crossed his legs atop them and leaned back on the makeshift chair made by his friends. "Kiddies."
