Chapter 3 - Strongest Human #2

Sudden breathing… 

Panicked, IJ opens his eyes and stands up. He glances in several directions. There was not much fog surrounding him, and there wasn't much ground beneath him.

"Where am I?" Sweat was streaming down IJ's face as he spoke to himself in an anxious tone.

Grabs his head…

"What's happening, no...no...noooo?" How can I proceed? IJ mentioned under pressure. I must figure up a solution. All of this is unclear to me, though. What will happen if I run. what's inside this smoke" 

closes his eyes and raises his head. He exhales air slowly. "After all, there's nothing in that world that would entertain me," he calmly said to himself. What if this place matches my expectations, or perhaps beyond them? For me, there is no purpose in existing, even in the case of the death."

"well than here we go" with an excited voice IJ said. Than he begins to run with all his might. 

Run… Run… Run… 

Pant… pant… 

IJ then comes to a stop as his breathing gets heavy from running. "Well, it seems like I can't run much after all. Perhaps I should have worked out." "My mind is so thrilled about everything, even if my heart is racing." I'm not entirely sure why I'm feeling so excited, but something exciting seems to be approaching."

Hey, stupid human. I was unaware that we had a visitor to our property. Then, out of the mist, emerges a creature with horns and elf-like ears that is dressed in human clothing (black jet, shirt, pants, gloves).

"How in the world is this? "A monster," IJ thought to himself as he stared at the creature, looking astonished and concerned.

"Don't worry, Human, I will not harm you here as this will be against our law to attack another species until they attack us," the monster smiled as he approached IJ and placed his hand on his head.

"Oh no no, I'm not a dangerous person," IJ replied in a trembling voice.

"I know human" 

"aha… what is this place" said IJ with worries

Suddenly the monster sits on the ground, causing it to tremble and a frightful IJ along it. "Dude, that's not a polite way to start a conversation. Therefore, allow me to ask you your name first," the monster replied, pressing his cheek against his hand.

"aha.. my name--- Uhh--- IJ" said with a shaky voice

"What's all that? Really kind of pathetic, the monster remarked, his face expression bored.

"what do you mean" said IJ

"if you ask me my name is khoingiwo samatugasa luintaguwa"

"what the hell is that name" said IJ with an awful expression 

"That was actually the common name," the monster waves a finger at himself, adding, "My father said that the longer a person's name, the more powerful they are; to be honest, I'm not 100% sure about that yet."

"I guess" said IJ with unnatural smile 

"can I ask you something aha--- sa—ma---tu—" (hard to pronouns honestly)

Go ahead and ask…

"Where am I and what is this place? Is there any way to get out of this place? And what are you" IJ said

"This place is known as something like to Dark Loop. Normally, only the species known as Hore Ton, from which I am descended, are required to enter this banned area. A small group of Hore Ton are in control of this place, making it invisible to other species, because it has recently been reported that numerous rare materials are appearing here and that many other species will come after them. As you may see by my skin tone, we Hore Ton have red and black skin."

"However, how can I leave this place?" asked IJ in a slightly anxious manner.

"You can't actually" said Hore Ton with a serious expression.

What?! But Why

Actually, you can… said Hore ton while looking upwards. 

"Those who enter through the opening port are permitted to remain here, but if someone enters through teleportation or any other indirect means, they must kill every creature in this place in order to leave, with the exception of Hore Ton, who will assist you greatly but may potentially result in your death if you attack them," the Hore Ton looks down at IJ.

"I understand. Does that mean that you will help me in leaving this area? stated IJ, looking hopeful.

The Hore Ton remain since and after glaring at the boy. He said "Alright I will help you with this escaping thing---" 

That's great… said IJ looking all happy. 

"Allow me to conclude first. The Hore Ton said, "Since I will help you escape, which I can't do for free, I require something in exchange also."

"ahm…" 

IJ then starts to wonder, "What can I give this Hore guy that would help me out?" while looking down at the ground.

!!! "Right! What about the materials you mentioned earlier? If we obtain them, I will give them to you in their entirety. How do you think?

Use your head, dude. Hore Ton said, "If I had wanted all the stuff, we could have taken them all long ago instead of protecting them from other species." Said with a loud voice.

"That makes sense, but give me a moment to process first," I said as IJ pocket started to vibrate. IJ puts his hand in his pocket after noticing this.

"what you doing?" questioned Hore Ton

Then IJ took his phone—which was vibrating due to the alarm—out of his pocket. When Hore Ton notices the phone, he asks IJ, "What is that thing?" and points his finger at it.

"Oh, this?" shows to Hore Ton "This phone is a smartphone. We utilize this on Earth for a variety of tasks or just for fun."

Hore Ton then takes it out of IJ's hands without warning, flips it over, and clicks a button by mistake that causes the phone to flash brightly. Does this object contain light? Whoa, that's great. What else does this weapon do besides use light to destroy others? The Hore Ton exclaimed excitedly.

"no---no" said IJ while waving his hands in worries than IJ grabs the phone from Hore's Hand "hey!" 

Look, if you can assist me, I'll explain what this is and how to use it. then he extends his hands.

He then approaches IJ, glaring at him, and says, "Are you saying that for this little thing I will help you out?" in a serious tone. Hmm. Show me that this is a worthy effort.

"alright" said with a relived face 

Occasionally, after demonstrating to the Hore Ton the phone's capabilities.

When Hore Ton notices everything, he rises to his feet and turns his back to IJ. He says, "So, man, when are we starting the play off?"

with a radiant grin and eyes. IJ stands up as well, saying, "We may start now but..."

but what? Said Hore Ton

"The phone is about to die and if it does that means I can't use it and I also have no charger to charge it and no electricity," he said, bringing his finger closer to the phone's battery as he showed Hore Ton. (smiles with worries)

Hore Ton becomes irritated by it and scratches the back of his head, saying, "I will take care of it." Then, he approaches IJ and tells him to close his eyes and consider whatever the charger item is.

Alright!!... 

IJ shuts his eyes, and Hore Ton moves his palm toward IJ's head as a while aura emanates from his hands. This makes IJ uneasy and makes it difficult on him to visualize the Charge image, "It's okay, just relax yourself and envision freely after you're done, you can inform me immediately. 

IJ yells, "It's done," after focusing for a while, and then Hore Ton raises his hand and shoots a black ball of light into the air after reaching some distance. The light then turns into a charger.

IJ looked astonished and muttered, "Wah," as he saw the charger fall down into Hore Ton's hands "here." Hore then handed it to IJ, smiling nervily and adding, "We don't have a place to plug the charge."

Hore Ton slams his palm against his face and says, "You Idiot," after that they bring a power bank in the same way.

"May I ask you something Mister Hore guy" 

"what" said with an annoyed expression 

"Since I saw the electric ball thing, can you also make electricity? Maybe we could use it to charge the bank."

Yes, but then he touches the bank with his finger and sends a tiny quantity of electricity into it, surprising IJ by making the bank charge instantly. Than he puts the phone to charge. 

"so, mister hore guy, you have the ability to wield lightning power in addition to making imagined things come true."

"Yes, you are correct, but since we are ranked on this skill, there aren't many things regarding these imaginative pull out. The stronger the imagination you can summon, the higher your rank; however, this is not applicable to Hore Ton, as we are only capable of conjuring the imaginations of other species, not our own.

"that's make it not that much of a use than" stated IJ

Yes and now keep moving now… than the journey begin of the beast and the human.
