Liancourt Rocks, a place being claimed by two countries and currently their militaries are in hold of a half-korean, half-japanese general, so that the conflict between the two would at least subside.
However, that was just a temporary solution and it won't last long since the two countries came here and claimed the island theirs.
There were many tourists coming to the Liancourt Rocks as of now, because of that the military had to intervene as to not get too crowded.
Because of that tourists only have a few hours of time inside the island, after that they basically get sent off by the soldiers in charge of patrol.
"... Our most memorable place..." Melissa sighed at the sight of the island. It was flattened and the place where her husband proposed to her was now unrecognizable.
She felt sad but there was nothing she could do and just lamented. Feeling her emotions, her husband closed up to her and comforted her.
"Heheheh~" She enjoyed it and it looks like she planned for this to happen. After all, her husband doesn't really show much emotions most of the time.
'Like mother like daughter huh?' Lax thought while giving a slight glance at the girl next to him. He couldn't help but admire her beauty before looking away.
But given the girl's sensitivity to his gaze, Anaya noticed and a slight smile formed on her mouth.
"Mr. And Mrs. Walker we have arrived at the Liancourt Rocks." A voice resounded in the couple's ears. It came from a middle-aged man who was the owner of the boat they rented.
He was a few inches shorter than Anaya, about 169 cm and had white skin. He was a Japanese man.
"Thank you, Haruto. We'll be back in a few hours." Said Melissa then she got off the boat along with Lax and the others and stepped on the island.
"It's really crowded..." Anaya muttered as she held on Lax. She crossed their hands like a couple and pressed his arm against her chest.
Soon, a soft sensation was felt by Lax, but he decided to ignore it to calm his mind down just right after he enjoyed the sensation for a few seconds.
He didn't want to become perverted, at least not now. So, instead of enjoying the soft sensation, he enjoyed her presence that brought a smile to his face.
"Of course, since their are many tourists and even the military, the place is expected to be crowded. That's why don't go too far from us or you'll both lost your way." Melissa reminded them, then she did the same thing as her daughter to her husband.
"Let's go." She said and led the way towards the popular spot. The popular spot was naturally the temple that had appeared out of nowhere.
It's already been a week since the temple appeared and yet, there was already news that caused chaos all around the world.
...
A few days ago, in South America in a certain country, a man managed to pass through the barrier. The moment he did so, a majestic voice resonated in the area causing everyone to stay silent.
"Finally, a talented one has appeared, it appears that I don't need to pick the people myself." The voice rejoiced and what soon followed was the appearance of a being so beautiful it caused many people to be surprised.
The voice belonged to a man, an angel with two pairs of majestic and divine wings protruding behind his back. He was tall, handsome, and had a presence that attracted everyone's attention. He was wearing a white linen cloth like those gods of Greek and a pair of wooden sandals yet it looked like gold.
"What is your name, human man?" He spoke with no prejudice or belittlement towards the human, but amusement. He was amused that a human had actually entered the barrier meant to ward off humans.
"I... I am Max Whiteman... Angel sir?" The man who introduced himself as Max Whiteman was confused as to how he should address the divine being in front of him.
"Fufufu... Call me Archangel Lux, the harbinger of light, human... Max Whiteman." He chuckled at the confusion displayed in the man's face.
"Now that we have introduced ourselves, let us quickly get to the main reason as to why I have come here." As he said that, his expression turned serious and he stared intensely at Max's eyes.
"Max Whiteman, are you willing to devote yourself to me and become mine? To become my disciple and in return, you will gain power to defend those who you care for in the upcoming disaster." He smiled amused and spoke once more seeing the man staying silent, "I ask you again, Max Whiteman, are you willing to become my apostle?"
"...Yes." Max accepted, he saw the being in front of him filled with divinity and supremacy. He couldn't help but admire and stare in awe. And so, for that reason he accepted without thinking about it anymore.
Archangel Lux yes turned back to normal and his playful gaze returned. The archangel then swept his hand and a bright light filled the entirety of the area, causing people to cover their eyes. The moment they regained their sight, the two had already vanished without trace.
At this very moment, the world came upon the knowledge of an existence from above does exist and the religious ones had their faith increase even more. Another thing that caused chaos around the world was one of the things said by the man. An upcoming disaster and it filled various leaders of the world with headaches causing problems as their citizens became chaotic.
...
"So that's why no one can get in."
The first reaction Lax had was of understanding as he arrived at the front of the temple.
The sight he was seeing currently was that surrounding the hundred meters radius of the temple was a barrier of blue energy. The same thing he saw inside his body, an energy he currently couldn't use.
Also, at the sight of the barrier he could feel that he could enter it without any obstruction and possibly the woman next to him as well, but he decided not to do that as there were currently many people surrounding this place. He didn't want to attract any attention after all.
But even though he thought of that, the two of them still garnered the attention of their surroundings since just by looking at them, most people would be dazed at their handsome and beautiful face.
'I should get a mask... And one for her too.' He glance at Anaya and noted to himself that he would also buy her a mask in the future, but it would be up to her if she wants to use it or not.
"What are you doing?" Behind him, Anaya had her arms wrapped around Lax's waist, hugging him tightly and she spoke. "Showing the bitches around that you're mine." She snuggled even deeper.
'She's really cute when she's jealous.' Lax thought with a small smile and ignored the surrounding eyes of men staring daggers at him. 'She's mine idiots. Envy all you want, but you'll never get her or touch a single strand of her hair!'
All the while he thought that, Anaya behind him got off and started walking towards the barrier.
"Anaya?" He called out, but no response.
'Someone is calling me inside that barrier.' Anaya thought and continued walking. It was like she was in a world of her own, but she stopped when she heard Lax's voice.
Although she didn't respond, she turned around and grabbed his hands.
'Ah! What am I doing? If I'm going in there, I should naturally bring Lax. If I don't these bitches will try to get their hands on him!' She glared at the women staring at Lax, dangerous thoughts were filling up her mind.
However, she decided to calm down and turned to Lax with a smile on her face. "Let's go in, Lax! I feel something calling towards that place." She said with absolute certainty.
It made Lax thought of the feeling he had earlier and he confirmed it with what she just said.
'It looks like something related to her is in that place. In that case I'll go in with her.' Although he was suspicious, he didn't feel anything dangerous.
And so, the two moved from their spot and their parents looked at them worried. As Melissa was about to stop them, she felt a hand over her shoulders.
"Don't interrupt them, you might not know if this is an opportunity for them. Remember what happened to that guy in South America?" Carter reminded her wife and she backed off after a few seconds. Though, that doesn't mean she wasn't worried, it was quite the opposite.
Although he sounded calm and mature, his thoughs were not.
'If they get in, they might receive some kind of power from supernatural beings!'
He was an otaku, someone who enjoyed reading mangas, novels, and watching anime. Even obsessed with those things, so he couldn't help but think that this scene was like a protagonist entering a brand new world.
"Hey look! Those two got in— Argh! my fucking eyes!"
A man wanted to shout but he was blinded by the lights that illuminated the whole island. It was so bright that all the people had to close their eyes. However, unlike the one in South America, no voice was heard before this happened so it came a surprise to them.
As the lights disappeared, so were the two people who entered the barrier. Suddenly, the air around them felt hotter and some people started to sweat.
"T- They're gone..." The man rubbed his eyes as he spoke. He could still see the aftereffects of the blinding light as he rubbed his eyes nonstop.
...
Meanwhile, inside one of the military camps tent, a woman in her thirties was sitting on a chair with her legs crossed. She had black hair, straight and long, with bangs on her forehead as well as a pair of brown eyes common to Asians.
"General! I have a report on the recent happening in the barrier!"
A man in green buttoned uniform suddenly entered the tent, excitement is displayed on his face. He was shorter than average, and had the cute baby face looking like he didn't enter puberty. He was the very definition of the shota.
Coincidentally the woman in front of him was looking at him like a predator eyeing her prey. She was even drooling from her mouth, but she quickly wiped it away.
'I must calm down, I am a general and I should act like one, especially having those indecent thoughts that are a big NO.'
"Private Julius, what seems to be the incident to make you come here in a hurry while screaming your lungs out?" She said with a seductive smile on her face as she licked her lips.
Private Julius couldn't help but feel a chill ran down his spine for some reason, it felt like he was being eyed on by a predator.
"Report! Two people manage to enter the barrier, General Kana! However, unlike the previous incident in South America, no voice was heard and they just disappeared without notice!" He acted very nervous in front of his superior as he gave her a salute.
The woman smiled from his response, she thought it was cute. "Don't be so tense, Private Julius. I won't eat you, so relax whenever you're talking to me."
"Understood, General Kana!" He stared upwards not straight as to not meet her gaze.
"Fufufu... Anyway, two people entered, this will be interesting. How about that general from Korea?" She pondered before asking with a frown forming on her face, clearly she was disatisfied with that middle-aged man.
"General Sung Min-ji is currently at the said location, he is in front of the temple. He is now investigating the identities of those two people. Unfortunately, there are still no results as of now."
"Mmm... That's good, it's good that man doesn't get a head of us. I'll be going there right now." She stood up from her chair and stretched her body. She was short, a few inches shorter than average.
"Anyway, come with me, we'll go meet that hateful bastard at the site." She ordered and walked past Private Julius.
"Understood!" He responded sternly.
'His too stern, although that's what makes him cute...'
She thought to her self and a lustful smile formed on her face.
'I must control my desires!'
