Chapter 180 Volume IV - Chapter 25: The City That Will Drown in Chaos

I had to go straight to the hotel that had already been arranged for me, there was no need to wait here in this city.

I couldn\'t care about that though. As if I had forgotten everything I had been thinking about until I got here and focused on something completely different: my surroundings.

This is... an airport, yes, but also very different from the normal ones.

Dwarves are not a very strong race. Their body\'s relationship with mana is even worse than that of humans, but that is not much of a weakness for them. Because dwarves are one, no... maybe two ages ahead of the rest of the world in technology.

They are true geniuses. Architecture, medicine, software, general technology... They have advanced in everything. They\'re responsible for more than half of the technology on Lunerra. That\'s why their airport is so different from the airports I\'m used to.

In the game, after the South Holar won the war, they shut down the airport as well as the trade. That\'s why I never got to see this place, the airport, and the extremely advanced technology that dwarves use in their daily life, except for weapons and war technology, even at the edges.

Now, however, to see this airport with my real eyes, freely, without any restrictions... To watch robots designed for different missions swiftly circling around the airport, to be directly aware of the extreme technology around...

I felt breathless, I couldn\'t take my eyes off them. As a twenty-first-century human being, this excited me more than most things I had ever seen in my life.

I was in a paradise, a technological paradise.

As I looked around with my mouth open, I realized something else.

I was literally surrounded by dwarves... molded individuals ranging from one hundred and twenty to one hundred and fifty centimeters in height. Almost ninety-nine percent of the airport was dwarves.

That alone made me feel like I was in another world.

\'Aiden, you there?\'

Sith\'s voice made me jump in my seat. I suddenly remembered where I was, and then I sighed. I quickly pulled myself together.

\'Sorry, I got distracted.\'

I didn\'t come here to stare at technology like an idiot. I have a goal. I mustn\'t forget it.

\'Where are we going?\'

\'We will first leave the airport and then the city. If I go straight into recruitment, they won\'t take me. They won\'t trust me for reasons like I\'m human. So, first of all... I have to find a high-ranking person who will trust me.\'

\'So?\'

Sighing slightly, I started walking again. Even though I was still interested in the technology and the different races around me, I had a direction to go.

\'We will be near these people just before the battle starts. Then... we will fight with them.\'

Sith stood still for a moment. I walked past him as he hovered, not caring what he was doing, and then a low voice came from behind me that only I could hear.

\'We\'re going to fight, you say...\'

He flew quickly in front of me, his face showing mild shock and anger at the same time.

\'You\'re going to fight in a real war, where you\'ll probably be in the presence of people much stronger than yourself... Sounds like you\'re planning to get yourself killed.\'

\'No, of course not. If I wanted to die, there are much easier ways to do it, especially for me. So leave it to me. We\'re just going to a city that will soon be attacked.\'

Sith opened his mouth but then closed it before he could say anything.

\'Sometimes I really think you have a problem in your head.\'

\'I feel the same way, don\'t worry.\'

\'And you admit...\'

"Why shouldn\'t I?\'

Sith didn\'t say anything else and a smile formed on my face. Then I tapped the maps on my watch and started heading toward the nearest magnetic train station.

This was where I would use the first of the information I knew from the game. I was going to enter a city that was going to be attacked unexpectedly.

So, without leaving the airport, I boarded the station connected to it. Even though it was full of writing in the language of the dwarves, as a heavy fan of this game, of course, I knew the language. It was a great feeling when I played the game to be able to understand people speaking different languages without subtitles, so I learned most of the languages at least to some degree.

Of course, despite that, I\'m sure I would have had difficulty with dialog. Because I only know how to understand the language. Speaking fluently with someone or reading sentences fast... I need to work on that.

Still, my existing knowledge didn\'t cause me any problems in understanding what\'s what. Where I had difficulties, I asked Sith, a natural flying translator, for help and I was able to find a magnetic train to the city I wanted.

As the city I was going to be one of the closest to the war, it was fully guarded and covered by a kind of barrier that was very difficult for dwarves to break through, but it required a little file checking, which Melany and Ronald had already taken care of. So, I had a smooth journey, the only problem was that it took two hours.

When I finally, successfully reached my true destination, not much was going through my mind. Because, as always, I was once again mesmerized. Even their city was amazing, like the technology of the dwarves, like a utopia from the future.

Despite all this, the fact that this city would be destroyed in just two days was a bit... sad.

No, it\'s too sad.

\'Aiden.\'

"Ahem..."

I quickly pulled myself together and started looking for a hotel. And I found a suitable one soon.

The room I got had a view and was twenty floors above the ground.

The view was peaceful, beautiful, and more... like I was in a dream. Yet, as every dream has an end, the end of this city was near.

I stopped for a moment, I found myself in the deep silence in the room. It was like I was in a vacuum.

There will be a massacre here in two days... Why am I so calm?

I am prone to destruction and chaos as a wiera. The influence of the Absolute Mind is always on me, yes, but this... It feels like I\'ve become a completely different person.

I don\'t feel any real sorrow for the millions of people who will die here in two days.

Is it because they\'re dwarves? Am I having trouble empathizing with them?

The silence that had fallen over the room became more pronounced, the feeling of emptiness more pronounced. A strange, ominous sensation pervaded my body. Then I raised my hands and looked at my palms, my eyes squinting.

"You\'re here, aren\'t you?"

I didn\'t take my gaze off my palms, and I didn\'t need to.

He was behind me, he was here. The other me, the wiera side of me.

No... he was always here. Watching everything I did, only showing up at the most critical moments.

"You should be happy."

I finally tore my gaze away from my palms, but I still didn\'t turn away. Instead, I continued to look out over the busy city, no one knowing what was going to happen in two days.

"The things you love so much will happen in two days."

I clenched my fist, the bloody image of Celine on the bed came to mind. I took a quick deep breath in and out, turned around, and faced a void.

He wasn\'t here.

I sighed, then threw myself on my bed and closed my eyes.

Two days...

I\'d better rest today. I can continue with my plans tomorrow.

However, just as I was heading for my bed... something unexpected happened. I froze in place for a moment, while my eyes widened.

The whole room was suddenly filled with a purple glow. Then, I heard a low chuckle, and I felt the purple color of the room flood over me.

Before I realized what was happening, my vision went black and my consciousness slipped through my fingers.
