Chapter 67 : From The Beginning Part 2.
As the words come out of my mouth, a stinging sensation hits my scalp, although tolerable, the discomfort is annoying, However, the stupefied expression on Thyfall's face tells me that there is something changing in me.
—What is happening?.
Thyfall stutters a little while pointing at my hair with her right hand.
—Your hair looks like cooper, but is more metalize than before.
Holding a lock of my hair and checking what is telling me the Pink Hair Girl, i corroborate the event, noticing the alteration.
{What happen to me?!, How this occur?!, And more importantly, Why?}
Doubts and questions cross my mind for a moment, but the screeching of metal against metal captures my attention, seeing that one of the walls of this hexagonal room is divided in half like automatic doors.
Revealing the other side, an energy vortex of grey color is behind a translucent barrier constituted by golden light with osmium blue shades, and in the middle of this barrier lies a short line "–" of gold solid energy and one point "•" of solid osmium energy over the mentioned line.
{Is a condition to leave?, If so, The answer must be already here, And from what i learn, Osmium Energy represents Males while Gold Energy embodies Females}
An old man of blue skin that is completely absent of any body hair approaches the exit.
He is accompanied by a young relative that has similar physical characteristics to the old man.
But entering in contact with the Barrier, both males are pushed back individually by a powerful golden shockwave.
{Now i am sure, the Point represents one, the line must be 0 if this is binary, but i don't think is. the case, so 3 or 5 is my conclusion, but i don't think someone wants to corroborate my hypothesis}
The Old Man and his young familiar stand up with difficulty, understandable after receiving such impact.
»—Could it be that something like this was over the Nexus separating us from our Teammates?.
{Thyfall observation could be right, But that leaves two possibilities, Bverxkka separate us on purpose, Or… , Not even him could see what was going on, Both are disturbing, better focus on what is in front of me for the moment}
—Probably, But we can't be sure… , Let's wait for a little or form a new Team.
My voice must be loud, because a presumptuous chubby pig face male screams at me with an accusatory tone.
—You know what is happening!, Tell us!, You plan this?!, I am the son of a Baron!, You are not leaving this without a proper retribution, How dare you to kidnap me?!, Is because i am so handsome…
—HAHAHA…
Hearing the nonsense he is saying makes me unable to contain my laughter for longer, it is simply too absurd that someone can think i am the responsible of what is happening.
The young teenager of blue skin, looks at ne with weariness but speak somewhat respectfully.
—If you know something, Could you tell us?.
So i make my stance clear.
—I don't know anything…
—Lies!…
Ignoring the Pig Man i continue.
—But i have an idea, the room has six sides and if we consider the point as one Male, the line as five women, the answer is obvious…
—My Great Uncle and i can't pass together because of that!.
{At least he is not dumb like the annoying "Piglet"}
—What if you are wrong?.
Asks a woman of orange skin carrying a baby girl that is sucking the middle nipple of the three breasts her mother has.
{That is something to look at… , Could it be a Species with four boobs out there?}
Leaving my curiosity aside, i respond to her with complete detachment over any responsibility.
—Then, I am wrong and a few people are going to get hit by a shockwave…
—They would be injured because of you!.
Scream the Pig Man again, this time i retort with aggressiveness.
—How is my fault the outcome for the decisions made by others?!, Be mature!, Taking accountability for your own actions!…
—You are the one who is suggesting what to do!.
—Then the youngling is the responsible for asking me?…
With extreme mockery i comment while pointing at the blue skin teenager, just to turn inquisitive against the pig again.
»—Wait a minute, He shouldn't have the idea for the start, But he got it because of your screams "Piglet".
The Pig Man gets stunned, he didn't see that remark coming.
»—You know what i am thinking now, Is up to any of you hear me out or not…
The woman with her baby makes a gesture, two other woman of middle age get near her, alongside an old woman and a young teenage boy.
—I hope you are right…
—I hope so too, But just to be sure, Grab between each other your hands and let the boy pass first…
Trepidation is lingering on the woman's face, but regardless her feelings she nods at the youngling, he obey, walking first.
The Barrier doesn't stop him or strike back with a shockwave, allowing the group to cross the energetic protection and dissaper in the grey Vortex, presumably a "Nexus".
And with this, the center of the Barrier changes to show 2 solid Gold points over four solid blue osmium points.
{I was correct!, but if this continues, there is enough people to everyone leave this Reception Chamber?}
Making a quick count, there would be 3 people left alone in the end.
{Unless more persons arrive, Or the petition number in the Barrier becomes more or less than six… , But i don't know if any of those scenarios are possible}
Another group crosses the Barrier, the latter showing a new pattern integrated by three Points of Gold above two Blue Osmium Points.
Observing Dallas, he has his sight locked on me, is clear that we have the same intention as we not to the other at the same moment.
{Waiting until everyone realize what is going to happen, Is something i don't want to be part of}
*»—Run.*
My whisper to Thyfall is followed by her, she grabs my hand tightly and sprints forward directly to the Barrier.
Dallas does the same, advancing with his female friend and forcing to stand up a young woman that is by his side, the three moving with the same objective as us.
A bulky Man stands in my way, i coat my right feet with aqua green Kinetic Energy, kicking his stomach with so much force that he flies to the Barrier behind.
Bouncing out of it as he receives an additional golden shockwave on his back, and coming back to me only to get another kick from my part, this one on his head, falling unconscious and face first on the stone floor.
Some gasps sound loud around us, but our focus remain on the Barrier, as Thyfall hold the hand of Dallas's gorgeous female friend, to bypass the energetic protection with the other woman as Dallas and Myself follow them, entering immediately inside the grey vortex.
The transition is extremely short, no different from passing through a door and being transported to a different location.
A type of temple made with light grey marble, the floor of the altar is covered by a light green velvet carpet on which there are 7 other groups of 5 members, naked, just like us.
Their reactions are varied, some are calm, others nervous, but the majority are confused if not completely terrified as they look like they had been crushed into pulp and somehow managed to survive.
{Probably they are arriving here after being send by the Intestine Anthropoids, What was the name Slayçęr said they have?, "Kreiseries"?, More like "Crazy Blegh", They look and smell disgusting…}
Controlling my anger, i observe Thyfall, she smiles and hugs me, what is tempting me to an unmatched degree.
{*Sigh*, Why is Thyfall so intoxicating for me?, I really find difficult not jumping at her right now… , And when her comments become bolder than usual is unbearable…}
—Since when you two are together?
The Question of Dallas takes us out of our little bubble as we end the hug without flatly negate his words.
""—It is not of your incumbency…""
We speak simultaneously, as Thyfall leans on me, laughing shortly and taking my right arm between her breast, imprisoning my limb with her arms in a new tight hug.
Steps are coming in our direction, a procession of what looks like a Reverend followed by eight Acolytes.
All of them are wearing dark brown tunics, similar to the Franciscan Priests that i saw in an old book, except they have a red belt made of fabric in which a metal mallet is being carried, the Reverend has one too, but additionally, a white wood staff with a Nacar white quartz embedded on the top, is ported on his left hand, and with his firm voice resive us.
—Welcome to "The Layer of Rev'Ederiam", May your journey towards "Absolution" be fruitful!…
