Dimensional Travel: The Ageless Wanderer

Max Draven, a high school student, was tormented by his bully, Dany, the son of the city's top businessman, and his gang. The relentless bullying pushed Max to the brink of suicide, but he lacked the courage to follow through and didn’t want to worry his parents. One day, during another round of torment, Max accidentally fell from the roof of the school building. Miraculously, he survived but slipped into a coma. In the darkness of his subconscious, Max found himself in a vast, lightless space. Confused, he heard a voice from behind him: "This is inside your subconscious mind." Turning around, he saw a shadow of an old man with long hair and beard, his eyes glowing light blue and exuding a dominating presence. "Who are you?" Max asked. "I’m you, and you are me. We are one. Live with no regrets," the old man replied. As Max stared in confusion, his head began to hurt again. After four long months, Max finally woke up. His eyes glowed a light blue. As he began to wonder where he was, a sharp pain surged through his head. The nurse walked in and, seeing him in agony, called for the doctor in a panic. The doctor rushed in and administered an injection, slowly easing Max’s pain and lulling him into a deep slumber. After some time he woke up to see his mother by his side sleeping from exhaustion. "I'm back. Is this really true? What day is today?" he murmured. "June 6th, 2024. It’s only been four months then." With a perplexed look, Max pondered what was real and what was a dream. He knew that this was real; he had returned after what felt like 400 years of hell. He was glad. "Ha…" he sighed in relief. Thoughts of his bullies filled his mind, and his eyes glowed with a deadly rage and killing intent. "Every one of you will pay for what you did. I’ll make sure you do." During his coma, Max's consciousness had accidentally traveled to a world full of war and conflict, inhabited by cultivators and sects. He had endured 400 years of strife and hardship there, but in the real world, only four months had passed. Now, armed with the knowledge and strength from his otherworldly experience, Max was determined to seek vengeance on those who had tormented him. The bullies who had pushed him to the edge would soon face the consequences of their actions.

A call for police

After dealing with the bad guys, Max took everyone's phones and other devices, copying all useful information. He dialed 911 on one of the phones.

The call connected, and a lady answered, "Hello, this is 911. How can I help you?"

"Ah.. hi. There are some bad guys I beat up, and they're unconscious now. Mind sending some guys to clear this place?" Max said.

"..."

After a while with no response, the lady asked, "And where are you right now? May I know your name, please?"

Max sighed. "You know, people have been going missing, and recently, a reporter went missing too. These guys are behind it. It's your job to capture these bastards right, and here I am doing your job. What are you guys doing? Move your ass and do some work. I'm sure tracking the location of this phone is easy if you put in a little effort. If you want, I'll leave this phone on the line," he complained.

"..."

Hearing this, the lady said, "Look, you can't waste our time with these kinds of pranks. You will face serious consequences for your actions." She did not believe anything he said, as it wasn't new to receive calls like this.

"I see. Well, I can prove it to you," he said as he bent over, took a pistol from the ground, and fired it into the air.

*Bang*

"Hey, answer me! Are you alright? What's happening there?" she said, panicking.

Max, not caring much about the loud voice from the other side of the phone, put the phone with the rest of them without disconnecting the call. Just then, he noticed some CCTV cameras. He moved to the monitoring room and saw footage of these guys going in and out of an underground bunker. After taking the hard disk and destroying everything else, he stored it away and headed for the bunker.

As he tried to open the door, he found it was locked. He pulled hard without a care in the world, and the door sprang open and landed a few meters away. There, he saw steps leading down. He entered the bunker with an excited face and went down to see what secrets the place was holding.

At the same time, in what seemed to be a police station, a man in his 30s took a call and answered, "Hello?"

"Sir, there is a new lead for the case. But I'm not so sure about it," a lady said.

"Which one are you talking about?" he asked.

"The one with many missing cases, including a lady reporter," she said firmly.

His face showed shock after hearing this. This case had brought him a lot of pressure from higher-ups. He was really stressed out with all the pending cases and didn't expect to get clues this early.

With excitement on his face, he said, "Tell me more about it."
