Chapter 403 Saved



Eccar must have found the place where Arty created her own domain within Isadora's domain. Erend couldn't see it but he could also feel a strange Magic energy from the place in front of him.

"You can feel it?" Eccar asked.

Erend nodded.

"Call your sister."

Erend did that as fast as he could. They were now above the sea of ​​white slime in Isadora's domain and the monsters inhabiting this slime could be decided to jump at the two of them.

It didn't take long for Erend to reach Arty.

'I'm here, Arty. Can you open that dark place?' Erend asked.

'I... I don't know. I don't even know how I got here.' Arty sounded confused.

'It's okay. You, that place is a place that was created from your desire to be able to get protection. You can open it with your will too,' Erend said.

The explanation was easy enough that Arty quickly understood. 'Alright. I will try to open it.'

After that, their telepathic connection was cut off. Arty immediately focused her mind on starting to open the dark place where she lived.

Her mother could only watch from the side as her daughter did various things. She opened her eyes and then closed them again with a serious face. As a mother who doesn't understand anything, she can only stay silent and pray for her mother and her son, who Arty said are struggling to save them outside this dark place.

Not long after, a rift opened within this dark place, letting light in and shining on them. From behind the rift she saw two people with skin covered in red-black and dark brown scales floating with wings on their backs.

"It's open!" Eccar said.

Arty opened her eyes, she smiled with relief as soon as she saw Erend floating in front of the rift.

"You have to let us in, quick!" Eccar said again.

Arty, who didn't recognize him, turned to Erend and Erend immediately nodded. And so Arty nodded towards Eccar and allowed them to enter that dark place in her heart.

As soon as Erend and Eccar enter Arty immediately will it close the rift as fast as possible. Now, there were two more people in the room with terrible looks that made Erend's mother squirm behind Arty.

Erend smiled and then deactivated his Skill. Now his form is back like a human again. Seeing that, his mother widened their eyes.

"Erend?" his mother said.

"Yes, Mom. It's me. I... uhh... I'll explain this later. Now we have to get out of here," Erend replied.

Eccar also removed his scales and returned to his human form. Then he smiled at them both.

"Hi. I'm Erend's friend." He introduced himself.

Arty frowned in confusion. But her mother returned Eccar's smile. She said. "Thank You."

Eccar looked surprised to see Erend's mother's gentle smile. But Erend immediately said something that made Eccar unable to dwell on that thought for too long.

"Now how are we going to get out of here?" Erend asked.

"O-Oh," Eccar said. "We should return to my domain first."

Not long after, another rift opens in this dark place. The rift connected to Eccar's domain where they could see the bright and beautiful plains.

"Come on in. From there it will be very easy to return to your world," Eccar said. He then stepped into the rift.

Erend demanded her mother while Arty walked beside them without asking much more. When they arrived at Eccar's domain which looked much different from Isadora's domain that Arty saw, Eccar immediately closed the rift.

Erend could see his sister and mother who had just experienced unimaginable hardships breathed a sigh of relief. He also breathed a sigh of relief because he had managed to save them from the threat of those creatures.

"I guess I'll need some time to recover my Magic," Eccar said. "Sorry. Looks like you guys have to wait a bit longer."

"It's okay. I think we are safe here now," Arty replied.

Eccar nodded and smiled. He started to sit cross-legged on the spot and meditate to be able to regenerate his Magic energy faster after excessive usage.

Opening another rift to Earth drains a lot of magic energy. Moreover, after opening the rift to save Erend who had been trapped in the dark void, Eccar had not rested at all and he continued to use his Magic to fight.n0veluSB.C0m

Erend also took a deep breath and sat down on the ground. "We can only wait now. I don't know how to open a way out of here."

"Alright," Arty said.

"Mom, in the meantime I will explain what happened to me."

So Erend started his explanation to his mother. Arty also occasionally helped him provide explanations when Erend looked a little confused. Because the two of them explained it at the same time, it made their mother quicker to understand.

She nodded with a smile and then said. "Thank you for bothering to explain it to me. Even though I can't help you."

"Don't be like that, Mom. You don't have to do anything. I told you that I would try to make sure nothing happened to you. Though, it seems I've failed at that." Erend looked guilty.

His mother held his hand and squeezed it. "You and Arty have done a lot. We're all safe now, right? That's enough for now."

Erend nodded. He turned to Eccar and felt that he would not open his eyes for a while longer. Even though they had used enough time to explain to their mother.

An earthquake suddenly occurred and shook the trees. However, the earthquake soon disappeared as quickly as its appearance. Erend immediately stood up and put on alert but it turned out nothing appeared.

The same earthquake occurred a few more times but just like before, nothing appeared.

"It's those gods and goddesses. They are trying to enter my domain," Eccar suddenly said.

Erend turned. "Are you awake?"

Eckar nodded. "My Magic energy is now enough to open the rift to your world."

Eccar stood up and walked towards Erend. "We have to work together to open a way out to your world. I can open a rift from here but I'm not connected to your world so you have to help so I can open a way there."

"Alright." Erend nodded.

Eccar put his hand on Erend's shoulder. "Give your Magic to me while concentrating on the place where you will open the rift to your world."

So Erend proceeded to do that. He channeled his Magic while imagining the atmosphere of his living room. The bodies of the two of them were immediately enveloped by the brown and red light which then combined.

In a matter of minutes, a rift opened up in front of the two of them. The atmosphere of the living room filled with their friends was visible.

"It's open!" Eccar exclaims.

Erend opened his eyes and smiled with relief. He turned to Arty and his mother. "Let's go home, Mom!"

Her mother nodded. Then the two of them stepped into the rift until they finally reached the living room of their house again.

However, Arty did not see Erend coming with him. She turned her head with a confused expression.

"Why aren't you coming?" Arty asked.

"I still have things to do here," Erend replied. "Don't worry about me. I'll be fine after all I'm not alone."

Arty bit her lip. She of course still worried about Erend even though she said there was no need to worry. However, Arty also understands that Erend is the only one they can rely on to solve the terrible problem on the other side.

"But Erend!" her mother said with a worried expression.

"It's alright, Mom. Erend is strong. You've seen it yourself, haven't you? Arty said as he hugged his mother.

In the end, her mother sighed helplessly. "Take care of yourself," she said.

Erend nodded. Then he said to his friends who were behind. "I will do my part from here. You do your job there. We will send those creatures from the Chaos Realm back to their filthy world!"

After he said that the rift immediately closed tightly, leaving behind a beam of light that vanished in a moment as well.

Thomas asked. "I-Is that Sergeant Drake?!"

"Yes," answered Adrien. "You can ask about that later. Now we have to go see the president. You guys have a better plan to attack?"

"Are we going to attack now?" Conrad asked. "Is this certain? There's nothing more for us to wait for?"

"No. Now Sergeant Drake's family is here. It's time to make a move and do our job," Adrien replied.

Afterward, they went to the presidential palace to confront Julius and – quite possibly – his armies of people whom he had turned into minions.

Arty decided to stay home and look after his mother.

Their journey to the presidential palace was abnormally smooth. That made them even more suspicious. But they quickly figured it out as soon as they approached the presidential palace.

In the garden in front of the palace, and the highway that surrounds it, the city's people gathered as if waiting for them.
