Strange World

"What did that old geezer do..." Zach grumbled as he cleared up his eyes with his hands.

He couldn't feel a thing, and he was feeling sickly and nauseous. It was a strange sensation for Zach, but it was over even before he knew it.

Opening his eyes, Zach was astonished. He couldn't believe what was in front of him!

"S-so huge...I can't even see the end of it! What the hell is that?!" Zach gulped down his throat as his eyes widened.

Right now, Zach was looking at a Tower. Zach has to tilt his head upwards in order to look at it fully, but he still can't see the top of the Tower.

But what truly caught Zach's attention wasn't the mere fact that it was big.

It was the feeling of familiarity, "I can feel it." Zach murmured, 'It's calling out to me.'

'I have to get in there,' Zach thought as his hands formed into a fist.

He wanted to satisfy the emotions within him that were building up.

Zach then snapped to reality, "It seems that geezer really did teleport me again. But where?"

He started to look around, and there he saw his Bloodbeast, just flying around his head.

Zach had his guard up as this was an unfamiliar situation. There was no way he would have prepared for something like this.

Zach could feel an ominous presence creep up as he sensed a subtle shift in his Bloodbeast's demeanor, meaning danger was nearby.

Thud! Thud! Thud!

Slowly but surely, Zach could feel the earth beneath him shake with each step of the colossal tiger in front of him. It was big.

Grrrr. The tiger was fierce as it growled, warning Zach not to make any hasty moves.

Before even Zach could come to his senses, a girly voice resonated in his ears, "Wooow! Someone really came out from that light, sister!"

A girl, who seemed to be about the same age as Zach, came down from the tiger's head, and another colossal tiger, much bigger and fiercer-looking than the first tiger, came out of the shadows.

"Loraine, I told you to be careful of humans. They are a cunning race," another girl showed up and walked towards Loraine.

She was a beautiful girl with white hair, but something was strange, "A monster?" Zach murmured due to the white wings spreading out from her back.

"But! Big Sister Lola, this is my first time seeing a human!" Loraine shouted out loud while showing curiosity about the mysterious being in front of him, which was Zach.

Loraine and Lola are members of the Harmonic Race, direct descendants of the Angels. And Loraine, who was young and was being trained directly by Lola, has not yet had the chance to meet another race.

Meanwhile, Zach was...just trying not to do anything. This situation was too much for him.

From his interaction with the Great Elder of the Kaiser Family, being teleported to this strange land, and now these two unfamiliar monster girls...it was overbearing for a boy like him who was just trying to survive the other day.

Grinning from ear to ear, Loraine broke the silence, "What do we do with him?"

Knowing the tendencies of her little sister, Lola knew that she couldn't stop it. She can't stop her sister from wanting to get to know this human.

That's why..."Let's bring him back. To the Tower where we live." Loraine spoke as she turned around to look at the huge tower behind them.

Zach didn't have a choice, and he knew that. Just from the fierce aura coming from the two Bloodbeasts in front of him, he knew he stood no chance against them.

However, despite his precarious situation, Zach was not feeling down or distressed at all.

In fact, he was feeling happy. And there was one thought in his mind.

'The world...is much bigger than what I thought. It's much bigger than that prick, Hugh Kaiser!'

"I'm so glad! I'm so glad!" Celine was crying her eyes out while hugging her little brother, Keith.

She looked at him like a mother, but it was not just Keith. There were other 3 children with them, and Celine looked after them as well.

Out of all the children who participated in the Blood Ritual, there were only 5 children who were able to summon a Bloodbeast.

"W-what will happen to the others, big sister?" Keith asked a question, knowing that children who weren't able to summon a Bloodbeast would get thrown out to the streets, where life is harder and tougher.

"Don't worry...now that we have our Bloodbeasts, we just need to produce achievements and we'll have some sort of power! We can figure out ways in order to save them." Klay, one of the 5 children, told Keith.

It was true. Once they have some sort of power, they will be able to rescue their brothers and sisters from the streets.

What they needed to do right now was to focus and gain battle achievements in order to rise.

"Shit! Shit! Shit! I wonder if some random dogs are already eating them by now..." Muan, also one of the 5 children, nervously said.

She was a kid who had always been nervous about things, and Yuan, the silent kid, nodded his head in agreement.

The five were worrying for their brothers and sisters, but Klay spoke, disturbing their silence, "Still, I wonder what's going on...The main house seems to be in a riot."

The main gate had a lot of people going in and out, and people were patrolling all four corners of the mansion. There were armed people, and even the young master, Hugh, could be seen participating in this armed procession.

What's even more impressive is just the massive numbers of Bloodbeast roaming around everywhere.

Bloodbeasts that could fly were flying, and Bloodbeasts that could run were running.

"This place has become a fortress, hasn't it..." Keith murmured, trying to make sure no one else could hear him.

He continued to speak, "We were supposed to meet the general instructor, but we don't even know where he is."

"I'm worried for Zach, he might be in a lot of trouble by now," Celine said while looking at the people guarding the gate of the main house.

As they didn't know what happened to Zach, they were just worrying for him. 

With Kaiser Family being on high alert, they weren't allowed any information about the whole situation and were just put on stand-by as if they didn't matter.

Well, they really didn't matter. That was the case for the family head of the Kaiser Family, Hughman Kaiser!

"You said that my father is out, and he took a shameless boy with him..." Hughman Kaiser said while sitting on a throne, surrounded by his close aides.

The general instructor was kneeling before him, and telling him about the situation.

However, what escalated the current situation was the fact that Hughes Kaiser's Ball of Life had been depleted of its color.

'A depleted Ball of Life means that person is dead. And for my father's to be depleted, that's impossible. There is no one in this region who can best my father in battle.' Hughman Kaiser thought.

That's what everybody thought.

That was how powerful the Great Eagle of the North was.

"Learn everything there is to know about the boy he took with him. It seems like he is part of our orphanage forces. Try to look up the kids who grew up with him, and learn everything!" Hughman Kaiser commanded his forces.

"This is my royal order! Find out what happened to my father, and find out about that kid! Anyone who dares stop the Kaiser Family will face my wrath!" Hughman Kaiser intentionally raised his pressure and presence, maximizing his bloodlust.

He activated his Bloodbeast, the Great Dragon of the Sky.

A thunderous roar started to blast out from the heavens as a giant dragon could be seen flying above Hughman Kaiser.

All of the people could see the glorious sight of the Great Dragon. And all of them gulped down as they were sweating buckets.

"T-that's Lord Hughman's Bloodbeast...the dragon that was able to put the Kaiser Family on top of the northern region!"

Boom! Boom! 

The heavens started to cry with thunders and lightning. As if the dragon commanded the heavens, the clouds started to sway with it.

"Whatever happened to my father, may it be caused by natural disasters or strong people from other regions, I shall find out!"

The dragon opened up its mouth, and the lightning hiding behind the clouds started to gather in front.

And boom! The dragon fired a blast of lightning made from the clouds it commanded.

It was so strong that other clouds in the area were gone. It became a clear sky.

"That is my warning to all." Hughman Kaiser spoke, turning around and walking off, followed by his close aides.
