I woke up late on my first day at the job i get out as fast as possible because Sun n’ Moon is far from the Hero’s hall. it’s like 2 hours on feet so I decided to use a new way of transport,
“It's like fast travel, just pay some coins and wait in line and you will teleport
to another station in this city”
that’s what the old retired King Guard told me after drinking the 20th glass of beer.
this is an emergency so i will give it a shot, the station was full of people in a line facing
some kind of weird black mirrors ,i went to the city map and check the closest station to
the cafe , it was the “Eclipse Station” . i went to buy a ticket but the lady there gave me
a weird stone with a letter in it and it was very expensive, i just stayed in the line with no idea about how it works, i decided to ask the man in front of me.
“your first time? that’s weird … you just need to throw the rune at the dimensions mirror
and it will teleport you to a place free of time and space , i can't help you more because it depends on the traveler. for me it is just a long bridge and i see a looped boat in the water all the people saw familiar things, but some said they saw creepy things, they
call them divine creatures … but it just lies, there is no proof. just for getting some attention”
so it’s my turn, the rune in my hand starts shining and moving toward the black mirror, so i throw
at it.i start hearing Cracks in the glass, but not only in the mirror it's all around me. the reality is devised into peaces .then these parts just start fading away, i was in an empty city alley, and no people were there, only tall buildings and the moonlight mixed with the soft orange and blue lights of the closed small stores. I just kept moving forward to reach the other portal. it was a loop, the same stores, the same lighting, the same empty soda bottle in the ground.
hours passed and i am still in that loop, something weird happening. I thought it gonna be fast,
it was like a deja-vu, this road looks familiar to me, the lighting, the smell, and the raindrops hitting my shoulders.i think I've been here before, in the past life.
i felt something moving in my pocket, the rune starts spinning and moving, i think I’m close.
finally, i reached the mirror but it was different, the rune just stopped.
I tried to at it but nothing happened.
while picking up my rune i realize that i can see my reflection but it was unclear and darker.i get closer to see more but i get the same result.
these mirrors were weird so i tried to check them out, when i touch it
with my finger it fell down
but the creepiest thing was that my dark reflection still standing there touching my finger.
i was unable to move,i was terrified.
he looks just like me but he’s like a shadow, a full black body with a weird smoke or flame coming out from his skin, he has round eyes with white bloom in them.
then the world start falling and the real sky showed up, it was gray and sad.
and there was a huge thing in the sky, a man with a face covered with a mask, his face was leaking dark smoke, there was a huge circle made of metal floating in his head back, he was wearing a hood in his head and a cape moving with the wind in his back
his upper body was warp with some kid of bandages.
I didn’t even realize that the shadow reflection in front of me was infecting me. my right hand became a full shadow and the infection moved forward to the whole body.
so I stop touching the shadow and run as fast as possible while the building parts fall at me.
while running the rune starts spinning again, I realize that I am close to the portal.
and while taking the rune from my pocket i used my infected hand, the rune became a black gem and the shadow was chasing me while the huge creature pointing toward me.
i found the portal and jump at and i found myself on the floor of the eclipse station unable to hear.
all i can hear is the loud sound of the huge creature.
people get around me wondering why I’m on the ground breathing heavily but i just get out as fast as possible.
i just went to the Sun n’ Moon and i realize that the sun was already in the middle of the sky. I’m late.
i entered the cafe and a man wearing a black suit guides me to a secret room to meet Lucy
-late from the first day?
-I’m sorry i thought the teleport will stop time
-what teleport ??
- I heard about the teleport and wanted to try it to save time
-can I see your rune?
i gave her my rune, and she smiled and said
-so I was right you are special, go to work I will forgive you this time, came with me I will represent you to your co-worker, Linda
an 18 years old boy gets teleported to an isekai world with vague memories about himself and he is using a book as a diary to write how he spent that day after an amazing adventure, or maybe just beer with friends.
what defficults our hero will face? and how he will surpass it ?
