[SonofSunWukong: Theo, I'm kinda confused with how ur powers are affected when switching realities. Can u still use ur authority as the reality saint or are u limited to only using the toon demon. If u can't, then how do u get back... see more]
…
Theo had seen the chapter comments, but as much as he wanted to reply to them, he had to escape from this ambush first.
All of a sudden, skeletons emerged from various places. They peeked from behind the houses, tore through the walls, and climbed onto the roofs. However, many bows were aimed at them.
Before the skeletons could release their arrows, Nana took out the barrier talisman and raised it above her head. "Ong."
A huge circle with a star mark appeared, blocking the arrows coming from the right.
"Mr. Theo," Nana shouted, warning Theo.
"Don't worry." Theo stomped the ground as the essence flowed on top of the ground before forming a wall, blocking all the arrows.
Nana remembered that Theo had asked her about talismans that could eliminate a lot of enemies. She wanted to use it, but she had to ask first, "Mr. Theo... Or is there anyone who can launch a powerful strike with their essence?"
Maya and Oliver shook their heads. Even though they had a grasp of a new way of fighting, they still couldn't launch something like that. Li Wei only had his sword to strike. Even if he tried to use his essence, the most he could do was send forth a sword wave. That wasn't what Nana wanted.
"Well, I will take responsibility for this trap," Theo smiled. "Go for it. We'll use the houses in that area for cover before dealing with the other skeletons."
Nana nodded with a serious expression. She looked at her barrier that was bombarded by arrows. It began to flicker, showing signs of instability. If this continued, the arrows would pierce through the barrier sooner or later.
So, Theo signaled to her to begin.
Nana took out five talismans and tossed them into the air above the skeletons on the right side.
"Activate."
The talismans suddenly emitted rainbow lights and began to form a line connecting to each other, creating another star symbol.
As soon as the symbol was formed, a lot of translucent papers fell down. Due to their number, the skeletons ended up making contact with at least one of them.
"Shoot your essence into the air and let it fall on top of the star symbol," Nana shouted.
"Alright." Theo opened his right palm as a ball of essence appeared. It was a concentrated essence, and its size was similar to a basketball.
Suddenly, the light ball flew into the sky, leaving a trail of light. Once it reached its peak, it made a parabolic movement and ultimately hit the star symbol.
The symbol suddenly shone brightly, amplifying the essence and splitting it into numerous lasers. The lasers didn't fall randomly. They actually fell directly onto the translucent papers the symbol had dropped earlier.
When the skeletons were hit by it, they were pulverized as if the essence contained purification power.
"Hoh?" Theo squinted his eyes in amusement, starting to understand how the exorcism worked.
Meanwhile, Nana was quite shocked that Theo could utilize this much essence without any problems. It seemed that she had underestimated him. After all, his essence was actually enough to hit all the papers and eliminate the entire group on the right side. And he did all that while maintaining his own barrier, which looked sturdy enough to not be pierced for a long time.
As much as she wanted to observe Theo's power, she knew it wasn't the time yet. "It's clear. Let's hide behind that house."
"Let's go, kids." Theo smiled. As soon as Nana dissolved her barrier, they went behind a house while Theo maintained the barrier to block the incoming arrows that tried to prevent them.
Once they were safely covered, Maya sighed with relief. "I'm glad. Teacher, how can you do that? We were fighting for our lives earlier, yet, you didn't even bother to tell us about the ambush."
"In fact, you should have figured it out yourself. What if you come to this place without me? You would have suffered miserably. That's why I'm just warning you at the last minute, wondering when you would realize it." Theo shrugged.
"In fact, you should have figured it out yourself. What if you came to this place without me? You would have suffered miserably. That's why I'm just warning you at the last minute, wondering when you would realize it," Theo shrugged.
"..." Maya wanted to rebuke him, but she couldn't deny the fact that without Theo, they might have suffered heavy injuries.
"Anyway, there are still a lot of skeletons on the other side. I won't be helping you to kill them this time," Theo smirked. "So, what are you going to do?"
"That's... not telling," Maya stuck her tongue out while dragging Li Wei and Oliver to the side, discussing their plans among themselves.
"Hahaha!" Theo chuckled. They had some time to discuss it anyway, so Theo didn't bother with them. Instead, he took his time to look at the comments.
Since Nana was still beside him, he projected his thoughts to reply to them. "I'm glad that you like it, Seby_Spina. In fact, there is a lot to explore regarding this possibility. It has only been three years since ten realities are connected to each other, and while there should be progress in secret, there's no way Maya could know about it, let alone acquire it."
Theo didn't have to reply to the second comment, but he was pleased to know that he enjoyed it. Of course, he still did it with the intention to teach his students.
Last but not least, he was quite overwhelmed by the third comment. He thought, 'There are too many questions. I'll try to answer them as simply as possible.'
Theo carefully worded his answers. "It seems that you're very aware of my past. While I don't carry the authority, I still have everything I've learned, like my control and other things. Besides, I have my clone on that side, so it can create another portal to bring me and my family back."
"And no, I can't bring back something unique from this place. But if I can learn the concept of exorcism or anything else that can be applied to my original world, then it's possible. That's why I'm eager to learn from them."
"Currently, I'm still assimilating with my demon. It seems that the author hasn't written about that part yet. I'll try to take action where he has no choice but to show this matter, especially regarding the special power system that the Demon Realm has. As for the assimilation process... it's about ten percent, I guess? I'm looking forward to reaching one hundred percent or even higher... There might be possibilities for the demons to evolve even further since it's connected to other realities. So, let's look forward to it together."
While talking about the power system and how he wanted to force the author to write a chapter about the Demon Realm's power system, Theo couldn't help but think about something.
"Now that I think about it... if the readers can help me force the author to write that part, then..." Theo fell silent for a moment before saying with confidence, "I need your help. This is still an experiment, but if this works, please tell me about the opponents we'll be facing here. I mean, the story should be written from a third person's perspective, right? It should be possible."
...
As Theo said those words, something big was happening in the center of the village.
The village had a water well in the center, where the villagers previously fetched their water.
There was a middle-aged man sitting next to the well. His face was pale, but surprisingly, his body was emitting a lot of essence.
The middle-aged man had short brown hair and a long beard. He was one of the villagers who had been captured by the supernatural beings.
"Intruders, five of them," the man looked at the horizon as if he was staring straight at the enemies.
"To think they dare to intrude in this king's territory," the man suddenly stood up and looked to the side.
Another middle-aged man suddenly approached him and kneeled on one knee. While clasping his hands, the man shouted, "May I know your order, Your Majesty?"
Before the man, who was called Your Majesty, said something, he glanced to the opposite side.
Another man made his appearance and kneeled on one knee, ready to receive the order.
"How many men do we have?" the king asked.
"I have managed to assemble two hundred fine soldiers."
"I have assembled the same number."
"In that case, lead those four hundred soldiers and kill those intruders," the king ordered.
The two men hesitated for a moment, not because they were scared of the opponents, but because they thought it was overkill. They had brought four hundred people just to kill five intruders. If they failed, they would suffer unimaginable humiliation.
However, their king seemed to have made a decision.
He said, "I want you to bring back their corpses. I'm close to breaking through and gaining a portion of my previous power. There is an annoying barrier that isolates us here, but it doesn't matter. Once I restore a portion of my power, I can destroy the barrier, kill numerous people, and use their corpses to regain my power. It's time for this world to welcome its new king."
The two men clasped their hands and bowed their heads.
"We shall fulfill our duty." Without hesitation, the two men stood up and immediately ordered their skeleton armies to march forth. Unlike the skeletons that Theo had encountered so far, these skeletons actually had iron helmets, armor, shields, and swords. They looked like an army of infantry.
...
While the skeletons were on the move, Theo couldn't help but sigh. He had been expecting a bit too much when he spoke those words earlier.
At first, Theo believed that by saying those words, it would force the author to change the perspective to his enemies. After all, Theo had just found a new way to entertain the readers. They could actually alert him to the enemies.
And since he had introduced this new way, his words might still confuse the readers, so he expected the author to provide an example where the perspective switched and allowed the readers to use it as a future reference.
However, it seemed his plan had failed. He had been expecting the newest chapter comment to appear, but he didn't see it for a while, which meant that the perspective hadn't changed.
Whether it was fortunate or unfortunate, this was the exact time when the chapter comment appeared. And Theo didn't know what to expect from this comment.
