"It's not that bad, I guess", I thought. As I looked around, others were using -[REVEAL]- spell to reveal their own status and their levels were about the same. Other than most of us, there were many who had at least two division with more than a hundred and Meiko was one of them.

Then all of a sudden, there was a low-pitched screeching noise. As all of us turned to see the source of this screeching, we saw a bright light. We were for a short time blinded by it, but then we saw what had happened. It was a door entirely golden with touches of neatly placed gems. It stood very tall. I guessed the weight of one such door would be measured in tons. To push such a door, you did need the strength of an ogre. Actually, a bunch of ogres'.

"What is causing the door to open?", as I ponder, I see someone pushing the door. It was the clergy woman who stood in the middle. Everybody were surprised. Everybody knew the strength held by her is not meager by now. But this tense mood dispersed as soon as we saw greenery. We were about thirty people in total, all of us rushed outside. It seemed as if we were on a hill.

"Hey! Look here", a boy points toward something. All of us were shocked at the sight pointed out. It was a medieval-like city surrounding us. That did mean we are on the citadel. Also, we were no longer home, but somewhere unknown.

Everybody was in shock until our train of thoughts was interrupted by the lady. She introduced herself as Irene again. She further elaborated on why we were there. Mostly things like how demon kind and mankind were engulfed in a war for over a hundred centuries, and how this was affecting the equilibrium of this world. Most of us were uninterested. Or should I say more interested in other things.

"Will we be able to return to our world?", asked Meiko. But the answer was known to all, as Irene became quiet. Few started crying, others were venting by screaming and blaming. Even Meiko. But I and some other people from juvenile who were there were not throwing a tantrum. There was one thing getting repeated in our collective mind.

"FREEDOM"

We no longer were prisoners, we could be free in this world. In this place, a utopia, at least for us misfits. We no longer had to be underhanded. No longer oppressed.

But our collective thought was disrupted by Irene. "Then shall we bond as we sparred. Come on, think of a weapon you need, and you will be granted that weapon.," She said.

"What do you mean?", I asked.

"You are now going to summon your familiar. A weapon made by your imagination. A weapon with familiarity only towards you. You have been granted that blessing from the one up above. Use it. And spar with me. I am not going to hold back. You all win if you hit me once.," She said with enthusiasm in her eyes. Suddenly, she came to me and swung a mace. I was fast enough to dodge it good enough to survive, but it did graze me.

We all were thrown into a disarray. We knew we had to think of something and materialize it to a familiar. Half ran. Those people were chased by Irene.

"Think of something, Haru.," I said to myself.
