Whispering Winds of Alteria

This... Where is this? Seeing the unknown situation, Alex remained calm and tried to find out what was happening first.

First, he noticed a rainbow-colored strip moving and sending him somewhere. But where? Alex questioned himself.

Just as he was deep in thought, a voice suddenly sounded around him, and a translucent screen appeared before his eyes.

["Welcome to the world of Alteria,"] the voice announced.

"Alteria....?" Alex muttered.

Without paying Attention to Alex question, the voice continued to speak, and the screen in front of Alex's eyes showed the scene of the story about to be told.

[A long time ago, the Ancient Gods ruled the world of Alteria. Everyone lived a full and happy life. There was harmony between the Gods and Mortals.

["However, happiness was short-lived. Several space-time rifts opened all over Alteria, and Demonic Gods invaded from different timelines, spreading chaos and destruction wherever they went."]

["Angered by this, the Ancient Gods fought the Demonic Entities in what is now known as the 'Ancients Last Battle.' After an eternity of battling, the Ancient Gods emerged victorious, but they suffered significant losses. Many of them were nearing the end of their lives." The voice Spoke Angrily]

"After a battle of Eternity, the Ancient Gods won, but they have also suffered a huge Loss many of them are at the end of their lives.]

"Not wanting to leave behind an empty void universe and allow the mortals who believed in them to suffer, the Ancient Gods created twelve New Gods who now rule the world."

Alex listened attentively to the captivating story being told by the voice and found himself mesmerised by the scenes unfolding on the screen.

"Even the most advanced action cinema can't replicate the realism of some of these fights," Alex whispered to himself, completely engrossed in the spectacle.

And now what Select a Character.

Alex was made joke in his heart and start to giggles with his own joke.

"If I wasn't already familiar with the virtual reality of the modern Cyberpunk world from my previous life, I would have easily believed this to be true. It's so believable," Alex thought to himself.

But before he could indulge in more jokes, the voice spoke again.

"You were traveling toward Alteria."

In the next moment, a bright white light enveloped Alex, transporting him and start to send him into a new world.

The realm of Alteria.

"What the fuck is happening" Alex exclaimed in horror.

Not long after, the light vanished, and the space where Alex had stood began to transform, replaced by clouds and the sound of birds chirping. Confused, Alex wondered aloud, "Wait, where am I?"

To his astonishment, Alex realised he was high up in the sky, rapidly descending towards the ground. As he looked down, he saw a bustling town below, with people bustling about, interacting with one another, and going about their daily activities.

With no time to spare, Alex couldn't maintain his calm demeanour any longer. He opened his mouth and let out a piercing scream, echoing through the air.

"AAAAAAAAAHHHH." 'Am i really going to die a worthless death, Hell! I even endured sixteen years of shitty life just to be alive.' Alex thought while screaming.

"After all, anyone would scream if they found themselves plummeting from such a height without any safety measures, especially in the midst of an unknown situation.

Alex was no exception.

"Waaaaahhh!!!"

"Waaaaahhh!!!"

Involuntarily, Alex closed his eyes and could only hear the sound of the wind passing his ears.

Unbeknownst to Alex, A green wind began to carry him, moving him like a sea tide.

After a few seconds, the howling wind subsided and blended into a gentle murmur. Sensing something awry, Alex felt uneasy and decided to open his eyes to assess the situation. Before he could fully comprehend what was unfolding, he was swiftly transported to the ground below, landing safely.

As he gathered his bearings, Alex found himself surrounded by the sights and sounds of three distinct words created by the green wind. The phrase "Save the World" echoed in his mind, adding to the mystery of his circumstances. The magical moment dissipated, and the wind that had once blended like dust dispersed into the air.

Soon, the ambient sounds of people's voices replaced the atmospheric silence. Alex overheard snippets of conversations:

"Mister, how much for this apple?"

"Just 2 bronze coins for you, ma'am!"

… …

"Haha Try to catch me Andy!"

"Stop, give me back my toy!"

""Hmph... These children never listen to me. Hey stop running like this, Listen to mommy."

" ...…."

Amidst the chatter, Alex pondered the source of these voices. He realised he was standing behind a large, towering tree, hidden from view.

Looking beside the tree Alex realise he was standing behind the brick road, much like those on roads in ancient times.

Taking a look at his surrounding, Alex saw that he seemed to be in plaza market.

"What the heck is happening with me. And where am i, How come from the tech like world i transport into a Fantasy world." Alex pondered

After taking a Few walks he found a small fountain with Heart shaped design. Which seems to be popular with couple in this place.

Beside that, there were also various stalks selling fruits, clothes, foods, tools, etc. Looking at all this give an impression similar to that of medieval era, and at the same time, Alex also thought of those Fantasy Manga's and Novel's that he read in his past life.

"This place is just like how I imagine in a fantasy novel," Alex mused, his mind much calmer now after the earlier confusion. "Before, I had never had any opportunity to explore the sci-fi world I transmigrated to. Now, the gods have given me an opportunity to see this world. How could I miss it?"

His interest was piqued, and he began looking around curiously.

Sometimes he stood in front of vendors to inspect their products, intrigued by the variety on display. Other times, he eavesdropped on private conversations, catching glimpses of the world's inner workings. Everything he did was in pursuit of understanding this new world better, and he spared no effort in his endeavour.

Amidst the market commotion, a sudden clamour caught Alex's attention. The voices of the people filled the air:

"Do you know the guards found the old tree aging really fast?"

"Oh no, the Imperial Ancestry Tree is withering. Which bastard angered the Gods again?"

Intrigued, Alex followed the crowd, which led him to a large gathering surrounding the old tree. Once vibrant and green, the tree now appeared yellowed and lifeless. Tears were shed, and people clung to the tree, expressing their gratitude and reverence for its kindness and generosity. Even non-believers bowed in respect.

As the tree continued to wither, a gentle gust of yellow wind brushed past Alex, carrying a fragrance that made him frown. Unlike the urgent scent of the previous green wind, this fragrance exuded gratitude and contentment.

Observing the tree he had landed near, now completely transformed into a withered yellow state, Alex couldn't help but wonder what was happening in this world he had been transported to.
