As Liam activated the teleportation token, he felt the familiar tug of spatial displacement, a sensation that was always followed by mind-bending distortion. Just as he felt like his soul was about to be ripped apart, the world around him blurred into a vortex of colors before snapping back into focus, revealing the vastly different landscape of the Purple world.
Liam stared at the purple sky that spread endlessly above, dotted with swirling patterns of darker violet and occasional streaks of pink, a stunning phenomenon native to this unique world. He was standing in front of a giant window that overlooked a vast and bustling city below. As Liam's gaze shifted from the skies above to the land below, his brow once again arched in shock and awe.
The city sprawled in front of him was unlike anything he had ever seen. Even though he seemed to be standing atop a lofty towering building and his post-mana enhanced vision capable of observing details a ridiculous distance away, the city's end still escaped his sight. If a single city was this big, then what was the size of this world? Liam stared in a daze at the endless urban expanse stretching beyond the horizon. The buildings varied in style from towering spires that seemed to pierce the sky to massive domed structures that glowed with an ethereal light, hinting at the powerful enchantments embedded within their walls.
Below, the streets teemed with life. Creatures of various races and attire moved through the city with purpose and leisure alike; some hovered above the ground on discs of light, others dashed through the air with wings of flame or shadow.
"Ahem. You can step away from the teleporter and then enjoy the sight in leisure." A voice spoke, breaking Liam's thoughts.
Liam turned to see a fairy who was busily tapping away on the system screen. He gave the fairy a nod and proceeded to walk away. All around him flashes of light were constantly blinking on and off with the entire teleportation room buzzing like a hive of activity. It was no wonder he was being shooed away to make room for the others.
Killing intent and raw battle thirst were palpable in the street with so many seasoned warriors roaming about the streets, every single one of them undoubtedly walking a path of slaughter and carnage.
Liam's journey through the crowd was uneventful until a particularly burly figure bumped into him, the force of the encounter nearly knocking him off his feet. The figure, a towering beastkin with horns curling from his forehead and eyes that gleamed with a fierce, competitive spark, grunted an apology without slowing his pace.
"Watch where you're going!" someone shouted after the beastkin, who ignored the comment and continued on his way.
Liam too ignored the encounter and walked toward the main Sword Palace Entrance without bothering to visit the Blade Arc or whatever. He briefly glanced at the spot as he walked by and saw that many had gathered there, busily networking and talking to each other but Liam decided not to involve himself in such things. His main goal was right in front of him.
Liam entered the impressive imposing structure and surprisingly it was all empty except for a couple of guards and a scaled beastkin meditating near a pillar. This was a stark contrast to the crowd milling about on the outside.
The next second Liam understood why when the token in his possession vibrated before a teleportation circle appeared around him and he found himself whisked away to another location.
When Liam opened his eyes, he coincidentally found himself in front of the same burly beastkin he had bumped into earlier.
