C398-Rubber-Meets-Road

Ophir heared what happened and felt like it was useless for all of them to be separated by time. The whole gang died unjustly because the right timing and season given to them were rob off. Ophir felt like a wallowing branch being the only one who was left with the gang with Ain and Urchin. Yes, he is alive but is unable to live with them, He remained in the cave with Kennan. Ophir hated the fact that his wife died and gave birth out of his sight. He was not able to fulfill the role of a husband. His heart wrenches when he laid glance at Ole with a youthful season since he missed her childhood.

His inward battle was paused when Kennan spoke.

"Why don't you try to cross over?"

Ophir blinked his eyes and replied.

"Even if I try will I be able to do so?"

Kennan was shocked, This is not the Ophir he knew.

"I mean, Litrez is dead. The parameter attached to you by blowing the whistle might have been gone." Kennan expanded as he put a concern expression.

Ophir just remain unmotioned and said.

"Call Ain then."

Ain heared from Kennan and instantly cheered to have Ophir visit the city they were in.

"Currently the whole house is being rebuilt. We are staying in a villa. Agsus' friend own it." Ain infromed.

Ophir nodded as Ain excitedly sliced the space.

Ophir was able to step in to the slice. Kennan followed suit. When their feet laid on the ground. Kennan and Ain cannot spot Ophir.

"Ophir, come on don't joke around." Ain chimed as he call out but there was no answer.

"Hey, It's not funny" Kennan followed up but his voice echoed that calls out the gang from the house.

"Why are you shouting in front of the villa?" Urchin asked.

"Ophir crossed with us but he can't be found." Ain answered as his nervousness and concern got more serious.

Ain and Kennan explained what happened and Ole had to settle herself.

"What if he got blocked or was left behind?" Cherith suggested.

"We already, went back to check with Urchin." Ain sighed.

"What if his era ended with Litrez?" Fur raises. All heads turned up to him that he changed his answer.

" I mean Ain, Urchin and the others are still here so there is zero possibilities but he is the one who blew the horn."

Cherit just blinked and said.

"She mentioned that there are other passage in this dimension. Those who can cross are the cursed or the blessed but...She did not tell me what will happen to those who can't."

"I should open a trance!" Urchin offered.

As soon as he proclaimed it he did open a trance as Ain sliced through each trance and space but they cannot locate Ophir.

Ole started to cry as the day went fruitless.

Kennan regretted his previous actions. He should have shut his mouth and did not convince him.

Ophir stepped in to the space and looked around. He was left alone. The space was not pitch dark rather it was a vintage scoop of galactic setting. Ophir called out every single person's name but he recieved no answer. He started to run around and not panic. He searched through the space but found himself being turned upside down as he got deeper. His body is floating mid air. He might have hated to recite the lines he saw in movies but he can bet that it really happens.

"Am I dead?"

He started to examine himself and saw his hand did not pass through his body.

"What is going on?" Ophir asked confused.

His view caught someone familiar it was Litrez. She is in form of the stars. She got shaped like constellation.

"Your in my turf." She spoke.

"Oh, I thought your gone." Ophir smirked.

"As you can see, I am. You blown my whistle but did not call my name. That is why your a boundary is still in you." Litrez stated.

"I can't believe that such a cruel witch like you became a star." Ophir mocked.

"Nope this us just a medium. I am being toasted." Litrez admitted.

"Then what does blowing your whistle mean to me?" Ophir asked.

"That you are the one who sets that devil free from me. You can deliver me but you can't deliver yourself." Litrez pointed.

"What are you implying?" Ophir asked as he gets more irritated.

"That the moment I faded and died you were free but seeing you here means you have some cracks opened. " Litrez chuckled that madd Ophir felt humiliated.

He was released but because he can't free himself from his own crack. He sent himself unto the devil's den. Ophir gnashed his teeth in frustration. His anger are starting get aflamed.

"This is funny but go ahead and mock me." Ophir stated.

Litrez laughed hard as she spoke.

"Work it out. You have to train my son."

Ophir blinked and eyed the woman.

"Oh you did not know? Your daughter kissed my son. She needs to take responsibility for what she just did." Litrez demanded.

Ophir sweared that his neck started to feel heavy. He felt like a father that recieved a news about his daughter and is now having a stroke.

"What... that is absorb! Your son might have did it." Ophir accused.

Litrez glared and yelled.

"Your clingy daughter did it."

Ophir roared in anger. "His precious daughter did some thing a man should do? His daughter did the first move? Unbelievable!" He ranted as he walked around like a fuming lion.

"Just send me down witch so that I can talk to her." Ophir threatened.

"Just pray, stupid tale bearer." Litrez retorted.

Ophir halted and was reminded of who he is.

That is right he is a tale bearer.

"Our Almighty Saviour. I recommit my life to you. For long years, I have forgetten who is with me and was within me. Right now, I invite you once again and I am all yours. Thank your for making a way. Amen."
