XXXV: As the moon began to fall.

Seone came to a place that he honestly could only describe as strange, okay, he was on the moon, but why was there a damn meadow? There were flowers, bushes with what looked like blueberries, green grass waving in the wind, and in the middle of it all was a woman.

Although the mask covered her face, her hair was black and seemed to be so dark that it stood out quite a bit, as if it absorbed all the light that fell on it. Seone noticed that no matter how far he traveled, he could never get close to the woman, keeping the same distance. 

The smirk on those scarlet lips made Seone feel quite uncomfortable, but knowing that he could do nothing directly, he decided to see what else he could observe in this place. Picking some blueberries, he noticed that the fruit felt... strange. He put it to his nose, trying to smell something strange, but it smelled normal.

Being very foolish or very brave, Seone put one of them in his mouth and felt at that moment that he had never eaten such a delicious fruit. He even noticed that the slight fear he had of being in a strange place was relieved. So he just picked as many blueberries as he could and started walking around while eating them. 

He walked and watched as a new landscape appeared beside and in front of him, like an old cartoon where things appeared as the animation progressed. He saw different fruit trees, ruined buildings, and some cute and harmless animals like butterflies, rabbits, and bees. He got a jar of honey after strangely offering his blueberries to a much larger-than-usual bee with a small golden crown on its head. 

When he tasted the honey... Seone almost grabbed his sword to cut the beehive and steal more honey. This sweet nectar had not increased her vitality, but rather decreased it a bit, but also increased its quality and density by a notch.

It was only after several more mouthfuls that he learned that the effect of the miracle honey would no longer serve. So, being smart, he kept the rest of the honey in his space bag, and seeing the various fruits nearby, he felt that the stomach might not do the trick at all.

...

An hour later, Seone realized that only some fruits had special functions. The blueberries calmed his mind, the tangerines replenished his energy, and the banana gave him an erection, something... subtle, to say the least. An apple made his body itch, apparently healing him of some wounds he had not yet fully healed. 

Finally, the pears made his body feel much lighter for a few minutes. He kept many of these fruits in his space bag, putting them together with honey and some potions he had made himself following the instructions in his family's book. 

But after several hours of exploring, Seone got quite bored, he didn't know what to do or what to see, so he started training. He swung his sword thousands of times and practiced his spin until he couldn't do it anymore. He meditated and trained his vitality, and after many dead hours passed, he felt a strange sensation.

He didn't know if it was the environment, but while he was meditating, his senses began to pick up something else, as if he could 'perceive' more things. This made Seone euphoric and brought him out of his meditative state. 

"At last, so much sensory training has paid off," Seone said as he used his new sixth sense to see and notice things he couldn't before. 

It wasn't a limitation or an instinct, it was something he had been actively training or meditating on, and just this strange environment seemed to give him the push he needed. 

Now he knew that meditation could no longer help him by turning this exercise into a mere tempering of his body and mind. No, he had to start training his senses to achieve mastery. And even if he could not open a new limit, he could now prepare himself for the next thing: the Wild Instinct, which was related to the limits of the human senses.

Although it was not meant to break this limit, training it would help him in the condensation of his mastery, even if it was the most basic, it would make his fighting power reach new heights, stepping out of simple slash and spin attacks. 

Only when he achieves his desired ability to generate and control fire will the framework of his path be complete, allowing him to advance in the subject of instincts and limits, the aforementioned being the second he seeks to liberate. According to the Book of Belmont, "If you cannot feel what surrounds you, how can you survive in this world? 

After he released the limits of his consciousness, the burden of having ALL of his senses unlimited, plus a much more sophisticated realm, would not cause him any problems. No doubt it was a difficult path, but it was well structured, and the potential of it was quite high, even with the problem of not being able to move forward due to a missing link, at least his vitality could continue to grow, improve, and strengthen. 

With his sixth sense working like a small radar, Seone noticed that there were strange labyrinthine structures in the direction of the woman, and noticing this, Seone knew he had to get around this obstacle to reach the woman. Holding her sword with both hands and with a thin layer of crimson vitality covering her body, Seone walked.

...

As Seone moved forward through a maze that tested her newfound sensory abilities, many people on the mainland were alarmed by the moon's apparent approach. There were even riots in some areas, but the powerful countries knew how to keep the population calm.

They knew that the falling moon was not dangerous, why? Because it was a giant ghost, as evidenced by hundreds of attacks on the satellite to destroy it. Knowing that it was not an immediate threat, normal things went on as usual, including preparations for war in some areas. 

Rolanda rubbed her temples as she sat at her desk; she had finished her paperwork, coordinating things that had gotten out of hand earlier in the day due to something or someone wanting to throw the biggest rock ever at the world, though fortunately, the moon was in a strange phase.

"According to estimates, the moon will 'fall' in three days, coinciding with the 'Majora's Mask' story John and Axel told me about. The march for the war will start in a week, that's the longest it can be delayed... Seone, I hope it goes well for you," said the princess, her good wishes not because she got along with the boy, but because she didn't want to have a crazy dragon in the middle of the city if Seone didn't come back.

...

SHIT, I SHOULD HAVE BEEN ELECTED TOO!" our Rinnegan boy shouted to the sky, now with much more flesh on his body and the arrogance he had lost before returning to him.

Next to him stood a tall, long-legged woman with blonde hair and green eyes. She wore clothes similar to Raven's, though hers was red. She also had the classic 4 eyes that glowed with crimson light. Darkness swirled around him, and while it would be great to enjoy the sight of his long legs, the look of murderous intent on his face would deter anyone but our Rinnegan boy. 

Her beloved Damien had been 'kidnapped' by a strange mask, and she couldn't go with him, being cast out of his shadow. Now she had to put up with this useless boy's constant bullshit, finding every word he said irritating, much like the holy light of that perverted priest she had met a few months ago.

But she couldn't do anything to him, no matter how much she wanted to banish the guy to some random hell, she had to put up with him until Damien came back, only he could put up with the Rinnegan boy with a smile on his lips. She admired the man, he must have a terrible will.

"My beloved Damien, save me from this guy," whispered the woman whose name was... Bell, for she deserved a proper name, not like the ring-eyed fellow. 

...

In a small house, three people were gathered in a room, two men and a woman. Silence pervaded the place, creating an extremely uncomfortable aura, until the woman spoke.

"He will be fine, after all, he has Kurama's heritage, even if his nine-tailed fox transformation is limited to a few minutes, it is enough to solve possible threats," with her words, the atmosphere became a bit more relaxed, although it was still heavy.

"I guess we should have hope for him," one of the men said, causing his companions to nod.

...

"He's got the power of the sun, the real SUN, not like that cheap copy that died because of his stupidity, he'll be back..." a brown woman said to her companions, which were quite a few, to say the least. 

The sun hung high above them and the desert sand fluttered in the wind, but even in the immense heat they suffered, these people still looked up to the sky as if to see their hero. 

Interesting things will happen when the moon is about to fall.

On his way through the maze, Seone found a mini village, with mini houses, windmills, and mini crops. Curious, he went over to take a look and was amazed to see the inhabitants of the village... Smurfs. Smurfs exist and live on the moon. Knowing that these creatures were friendly, Seone decided to strike up a conversation, though he still held his sword tightly. 

Noticing his approach, many Smurfs at the entrance of the village approached and looked at him curiously, and Seone crouched down a bit so as not to be rude.

"Um... hello? My name is Seone Belmont, do you know where I am?" he asked after this short introduction. 

He knew where he was, but he had to start somewhere, and that was what he came up with on the spot, it helped because he started to hear what the Smurfs were saying.

"Why, a Belmont!" one Smurf shouted in alarm, causing the others to run away.

Well, Seone managed to get their attention... in a bad way. Seeing the little creatures flee in terror after learning his last name, the young man knew that perhaps it would be best not to tell the inhuman creatures on this continent. So he moved the clan emblem tattooed on his hand to his back to avoid future trouble. 

"The despicable Belmont wants to turn us into gold like he did our ancestors, run away!" The once vibrant village was now desolate and empty, which made poor Seone feel uncomfortable.

"I just wanted to chat," Seone said to the wind, and he swore he heard a woman laughing, possibly at his misfortune.
