Chapter 3

New World

And as everything in the chamber, was exploded to bits, Hitora was transported to another area. In the area, there were was a small camp set up, there were soldiers sharpening their swords readying themselves for combat, some of them were talking or playing card games.

Hitora, had just seen the death of someone, so he was rather shocked. A girl, who looked to be about 12, who wore a very intricate red and white dress, approached Hitora. ‘I suppose, you’re the one who lord Alein told me to summon, anyhow, I don’t have any further instructions, thus I have no further responsibility for you, good day,’ she informed him.

Hitora was about to say something but she had vanished out of thin air. What am I supposed to do now, I guess I should tell everybody on what happened, he thought. But before he went, he heard a very familiar voice, ‘Surprise!

Greetings traveller, are you safe?’ It was Lord Alein.

Wait a minute, how on earth is Lord Alein here…. Or is my mind playing tricks Hitora thought.

‘How are you alive?’ responded Hitora

‘The guy you met there was just my copy, and all those knights were my copies as well. I suppose I’ll tell you what happened, you were summoned by the Worshippers of Ravana cult/guild, they did so un- intentionally, they’re one of more well-known ‘black list’ guilds.’

Black list guilds are guilds which are dangerous and malicious in nature, best to be avoided. Lord Alein informed Hitora about the guild, to put summarise what he had said, the Worshippers of Ravana cult were especially powerful and were greatly feared throughout the world, since they had single handily destroyed an entire empire in a matter of seconds.

“So, Alein, how will you kill Vinmar if he can just respawn over and over again?”

“The information you gave is flawed, he can only respawn into his followers, to prevent this we just need to make sure there is none of his followers in 5km radius. We can locate them using a search spell, after that we can drop spears on them and they will surely die. Vinmar, is not a high ranking cult member anyways… like of the warlocks in this cult, they try to recreate an aura of extreme power, though they do possess quite a bit of power, a wellinformed man will be able to beat them.”

Oh… Wow, Lord Alein, really is powerful, Hitora thought. The coin that Vinmar gifted him, started glowing, huh so this means I would’ve survived even without Lord Alein’s help Hitora thought. Hmm, wasn’t this for the Divine Selection or something, didn’t Vinmar say the coin would tell me about it, thought Hitora.

The coin lit up and displayed hovering text above it.

[Hitora, you are eligible for the Divine Selection, meaning you may have inherited the power of the Demon God, ‘Ravana’ ….]

Wait, I’m a Demon God, does that mean I’m super powerful, Hitora thought.

Alein, looked over the shoulder of Hitora, ‘Huh! You’re eligible for the

Divine Selection! I must take you to the capital immediately.’
