“Everybody got the plan?” I said.

“Its way too risky seji.”

“We will do as you said master” said those thugs.

“Alright then. Now you guys can go.”

“Actually sir, we cant. I have a favour to ask.” Orip said.

“What is it wunion?” I asked

“Its not wunion. Its orip.”

“Yea. Fine baldy. So what is it lunion?”

“its not lunion.. never mind sir, I wanted to say. If we go to village without anything. Myst will kill us.”

“tch. Fine just for tonight you can stay here. I’ll sleep out.”

“No sir, we can sleep outside”

“So you gonna sleep on same ground as me?” I said with a killer look.

“No of course not! We can stay inside. Thank you for your kindness sir" and they again started crying and clinging to my feet.

“Okay now leave my feet!”

“yes sir.”

“let’s go out Alec"

“Yeah, pickup your mattress.”

“fine. Fine.”

“so why are we sleeping outside and they inside." Alec asks me being confused.

“I don't trust those guys. To them this could win their trust and belief in us. And they should follow me. 2nd we can put a better barrier in outside. Like you said. And 3rd I just wanted to see stars in this world. In my world I couldn't see much stars in night sky. Just 10 or 20. They were countable cause of light pollution. So much light used to be emitted that even in night it was like morning.”

“Well, I underestimated you. You are a genius in a way. And where does that light come from in your world?”

“Electricity. A form of energy which can run many things.”

“oh that exist here too. But it’s made with magic from mages.”

“I see. Also I had a question.”

“And what is that seji? I have questions too though. But you first.”

“Why did you hold back in front of those thugs. You obviously could take them all out including me alone. So why didn't you?”

We put mattresses near the rock and lay in them.

“I don't know. I am afraid of using it on people. I’m afraid I’ll kill someone.”

“I see. That makes sense but you should learn to use it against people then. Someday people will take advantage of you otherwise.”

“But if anyone get hurts?”

“I’m not telling you to go on rampage ahahaha. I’m just saying use it o protect others. Always use magic to protect people. I couldn’t see them taking money from you which you earned from so much hard work. You would be hurt wouldn’t you be? That’s why I used it. I would have even killed them without second thought if they had done anything bad to you. That’s how I am. I’m not a good guy. I follow an eye for an eye. Hurt people who are dearest to me and I’ll hurt you. Torture people who are dearest to me and I’ll torture you. It’s that simple”

“Yea.. I guess it’s easier for you to do.. than me. Even back when I was being chased away by humans and Angels I wouldn’t use magic to hurt them. But only to escape. That’s how I learned divine rain actually. Once 2 angels, were following me. To escape them I used divine rain and concealed my dark mana under the divine rain. And that reminds me how did you learn about Demonic vacuum skill?”

“you mean black hole? Its long story but in short in my world we can make drawings walk and then voice them from behind the screen. We call it animation or anime. And in one anime I remember someone using that Black hole skill. It was shown much more stronger than this of course but that’s cause it was all imagination of a writer. "

“I see. Your stories are unbelievable but since you used ‘Demonic Vacuum’ or whatever black, you call it. I’m starting to believe you.. but, what kind of anime did you watch? Its anime right?

"Yea its anime. There were many great shows, especially my favourite ; Gi****a; the writer was amazing but gorilla. You know our writer loved his work too much that he mutated into a gorilla. Now hes a gorilla mutant."

"Wait, why censoring it? I didnt got it a single bit."

"Think big picture. Do you want to be sued? Gorilla mutant will kill me If we get sued because of me."

"So you are afraid of that gorilla mutant?"

"No not really. Just don't like getting sued."

"Anyways, but don't say it like that, the gorilla mutant will get mad if he saw you saying this stuff on his back.”

“I’m main character. He dare to get mad.”

“This just makes us, nonsense comedy. It isn’t even funny to readers. Some might have left reading already. Why are we wasting their time?” he looks with a hopeless look.

“Its not our fault. That nose picker gorilla mutant don’t know how to write a freaking story. Readers were mad all over.”

“That’s true but he's.. he’s still author. Don't you think he deserves some respect?” he again shows that hopeless look.

“Jeez, stop giving me that look.”

“Stop wasting reader's time then.”

“fine. Anyways I told you. I’m not lying. And sleep now. Good night.”

“Good night.”

Around 2 hours later.

I haven’t slept. I turn around and I see alec also haven’t slept and was looking at sky.

“you didn’t sleep either?” I asked.

“no, just was missing my parents.” Alec says in sorrow and a tear falls from his eye.

“Its fine. I was missing everyone from my life too. My friends, my parents, my girlfriend.. I don’t know if I’ll ever see them again. But at least i want to see my girlfriend. Before when I died, my girlfriend was suffering from a heart disease. Doctors had said that she wont survive for long and I missed her so much in that period that I went under depression..”

“Depression?”

“Yea, it’s a condition when you think everything negative. You just want to kill yourself, you don’t want to live anymore. You feel worthless, want to give up on everything and be free. My family was religious, so when she got sick I either prayed or cried. But at a time I became like ‘its God’s fault for putting her through that. When I die I’ll destroy him.’ But she got good even though she missed too many happy moments in my life, I still couldn’t get over her. Don’t know why, but I can never get over her somehow..”

“I think I have felt depression before too. When I lost parents I blamed Angels. I still do. And I will avenge my parents one day, for sure.” Alec points at sky, trying to catch it all in his hand.

“I know. People get depressed when they go through some serious trauma and lose someone precious to them. But I promised you that I’ll make sure that you take revenge for your parents. So I can’t die. And if there’s hope I could return back front this world which doesn’t have games, I would. Probably.”

“We have games but I am assuming your ones have to do with a different sorcery?”

“Yea ahahah, you can call it sorcery. But when I died I was sitting next to my girlfriend in a game. Don’t ask how it works now.”

“heh! What? how? I’m curious now!”

“fine. Remember I tolld you we could hear each other voices but In games we could take different avatars and see each other and do everything kind of stuff too. But not that you can feel it physically. But mentally, yup, it works nicely.”

“your world sure was weird and filled with sorcerers”

“sure. That’s coming from a guy who’s a devil itself" I laugh a little.

“yea. Whatever you say. Now sleep and let me sleep.” Alec said

“Sheesh. Fine"

“The night is beautiful today, filled with stars" Alec said.

“Yea I can see that. Goodnight now" I said that in a low voice and I went to sleep.
