Chapter 4 - Discovery of the Duru 3

Present timeline

Scar took a moment to collect his thoughts before continuing the story. He understood the urgency in Huracan's voice and the need to uncover the truth about his father. Scar hesitated, his eyes filled with a mixture of sorrow and determination.

"Listen carefully, Huracan," Scar began, his voice resonating with a somber tone. "Your father, Arthur, possessed a rare power fueled by his unwavering love for his friends and family. In that critical moment, consumed by anger and determination, he unleashed an incredible force, causing his body to radiate with colors of infinite power."

Past timeline

Alex paused and shocked, reminiscing about the sheer strength and determination that Arthur had displayed. The air crackled with electricity as Arthur's rage propelled him forward, blurring the perception of his movement. Only a fierce gust of wind remained in his wake, a testament to his astounding speed and agility.

With an unstoppable surge of power, Arthur plunged through the monster's stomach, creating a gaping hole. The creature, despite its grotesque laughter, revealed its sinister intentions to Arthur. It boasted of trapping the souls of the innocent, promising that Arthur would soon meet the same fate.

In a desperate attempt to protect his loved ones, Arthur offered himself as a pawn in the monster's twisted game. The monster demanded that Arthur locate a hidden graveyard, where it believed it could seize control of another world ruled by alien beings. Fueled by his rage, Arthur agreed to find the graveyard, exhibiting immense resistance and endurance.

But as the monster approached Arthur, a chilling threat echoed through the air. It declared that if Arthur failed in his mission, he would be forced to confront the monster directly, endangering his friends, family, and the lineage they shared. The creature disappeared with a cacophony of screams, leaving behind a trail of destruction and the arrival of tormented souls.

The souls of the departed, victims of the monster's brutal acts, descended upon Arthur and Alex, their anguished screams piercing through the atmosphere. A tragic scene unfolded as the souls rushed toward them, driven by vengeful fury. Instinctively, Arthur and Alex ran towards each other, seeking solace and safety in their bond.

However, their escape was thwarted by the sudden emergence of colossal walls rising from the trembling ground. The walls closed in from all directions, trapping them in an inescapable prison. The souls, relentless in their pursuit, continued to chant a haunting mantra, "Duru," as if it held a deeper meaning.

Filled with anger and fueled by the souls' determination to kill Alex, the land itself trembled violently. The walls crumbled under the seismic force, and a colossal blast erupted, scattering body parts in all directions. The remains rapidly decomposed into dust, spreading a fine veil of particles across the vast expanse of Duru.

Returning to the present timeline, Huracan's voice trembled with anticipation as they pressed Scar for answers. Scar took a deep breath, meeting Huracan's gaze with a mix of empathy and hope.

"After that chaotic encounter, they didn't have to face the monster directly," Scar explained. "The souls and the monster's true form were separated. Souls, you see, are distinct energy entities that continually reincarnate into different bodies. The monster, on the other hand, resided in the death realm, disconnected from its physical form."

A spark of realization flickered in Huracan's eyes as they absorbed this newfound knowledge. Scar's words had opened a door to understanding, illuminating the intricate relationship between souls and bodies. Determination surged within Huracan as they processed the implications of Scar's revelation.

"So, if we can somehow harness the power of the souls and unlock the secrets of Duru, we might have a chance to break free from this loop," Huracan declared
