Chapter 18 - Portals and Gate

"There is a difference between the two entries called Portal and Gate worlds. Let me explain to you in short. Portals are places where you are brought to a field or within a dungeon where you have to directly begin your task without any precautions.

You would be greeted by giant trees and the huge monsters who seem to hate you from the first look.

On the other side, Gates are places where you can explore from the start. Just the name itself, you may say that is your checkpoint where you can start your visit to a place, journey to land, or when you enter a house you use the Gate.

Going deeper on this topic, we the Silver Bullet Family found out four different gates oddly appeared from the rest portals of the world. They were located at each end of the compass of the world.

We marked them as North-kingdom, South Kingdom, East Kingdom, and West Kingdom.

The inhabitant within these kingdoms had their specialties through which they could be known.

But that's not our topic, we are only speaking of the North Kingdom which was discovered to be the Empire of a Great Magus.

We spoke to meet them and they treated us like chief guests. We discussed our troubles directly at the first meeting and they cleared our doubts mostly.

Their Kingdom was known as a great land of witches, Mages, wizards, Warlocks, Death-locks, and Variants. Thus, we were especially welcomed in.

Why?

Because our family was the first human to visit them.

Tragically, here was the mistake.

We visited them and due to it, we were to be blamed. We brought out information, knowledge, and support for our human world. On the contrary, we got blamed for the fault.

Our family was insulted for being the ambassador playing for both worlds. They called us fools.

They marked us as a greedy family plus, they said we shouldn't be appreciated for our work because we are ridiculously proud.

But, we weren't…

We quietly kept our work ongoing so there could be the trade of potions, herbs, and funds for both worlds.

But, they disgraced us.

Both sides.

And who were the worse once, the resolution members themselves?

They didn't bother with the trouble we were facing. They didn't support it. They said we should do everything and they did not care much about our struggles or suffering.

In sharing the information, some knowledge was shared some were judged as fake, and most of them were leaked.

We kept silent to maintain our family relationships among the members of the resolutions however, everything has an end.

We had to act. And we DID!

How and when?

One day when we returned from one of the visits, all those members who were presenting the party surprisingly fell ill. And the next was what we expected.

Each person had a new bloodline born in their blood.

This party was taken hostage to the blame for bringing in a new bloodline instead of avoiding it.

When we asked to return them, begging to let us solve the matter by treatment...the members refused.

Thus, they interrupted our assignments. They stopped the task we had been struggling for years with it. They called it useless and trashed it away. We were blamed that we didn't work perfectly and thus we brought in more trouble.

Not to mention, the entire Empire of Magus world, was destroyed including the civilians in it. It was said that the gate to the Magus world was eradicated by using two great bombs within the empire which washed away every single living being within the territory. Our Family saw them doing it with their own eyes.

Thus, our elders couldn't take it.

Just because we were also going to be complicated in it, doesn't mean we should treat it as trash.

This wasn't fair.

Due to this we stepped away and made our foundation with only our name called The Foundation of the Silver Bullet family.

Upon not wasting any time, the family immediately stood on their feet and began to go against everything that had occurred.

We didn't stop.

We had power.

We had money and due to this, we came back to our stage.

Upon raising, we created an ultimate weapon that doesn't even stand a chance in the entire history of warfare. Given the same name as the creator, we called it,

The Silver Bullet...."
