On the vast sea, a ship is going to the Island of Peace, covered with fog. Inside the ship, two people are standing on the front deck, looking at the distance.

The Trickster and the Divine Archer is going to the Island of Peace. When their presence is noticed, it would surely create waves in the World Government.

In Italy, cities are burning, and corpses strewn the streets as the army of the great Power eradicate all the influences of the Crime Alliance.

Who knows where is Void, the leader of the Crime Alliance went.

On the sky above, a person guided by the Fates is slowly approaching Earth, his eyes looking at the path of the stars that would lead him to his salvation

In Aleppo a certain man is throwing his glass vial to the wall, screaming that it is not enough. His eyes are full of vengeance.

This man wears a bowler hat and after his bout of anger is calmed down, he continues his work muttering “I need more sample”

In Beijing, the capital of Wei dynasty, sitting on the top of the entrance wall of the Lotus Palace is the Sage of Arrays, his eyes seem to be looking at the world, his staff beside him.

His eyes with the help of the Array could see all over the world.

Other than the seven forbidden sites, Pandemonium and the area around the Eye of Heaven in Antarctica, his eyes seems to see everything where there is mortal.

He felt a premonition. And so he frowned. Meanwhile inside the Storm Tide, there is a person gasping in air, his body is bloodied while his wound is being bandaged by an armored man.

The armored man then said to the bloodied man who is drifting in and out of consciousness.

‘You need to survive. The Oracle have a use for you’ that man in the armor said as he continues bandaging the wound of that person.

Standing on the corner of the room, looking at these two person with a little bit of amusement, is Narleod. He rubs his chin and his smile look particularly mischievous.

Inside the Storm Tide, there is Narleod, Antonius and the leader of the Crime Alliance, the man people called Void.

Today, something big is going to happen that will change the world once again.

While all of this people are either minding their business, doing their matters, planning schemes and plots, there up there on the Andes Plain is two people.

Before, in this vast land there is a Temple. But after Will teacher broke out from her sarcophagus the Temple was destroyed.

But while there is no longer any temple of the Speedster, there is trees. There is a lot of them. It is like an entire forest had grown out in this plain.

All of these tree have thick roots and their height reached the clouds. Griffins and monsters of the sky perched on top of these trees.

If not for some of the branches on the lower parts of the tree, who knows what color the leaves of these trees and how big the branches are.

The entire area is full of energy of the world and it was like they are around an immortal land. If Azief was still in Seed Formation, this place would be every good for gaining more energy.

The wind around at the top is heavy. But when it passes the forest it became gentle. The forest formed its own Laws that merged with the laws of the world.

Azief then said

‘It is magnificent’ Will then reply

‘These tree used to be standing around thirty feet tall, and its shade covered a large area of the Plains. Now, it grew even higher and even bigger.

Azief nodded and then he said

historical

‘You said there were thunderbolts here. I have been looking forward seeing it.’ Will chuckles and then he explains

‘Oreki seized all of it’ Will nonchalantly said as he moves forward. Azief follow. If before, Will follow him from behind, now, it is his turn to follow from behind.

After all, this is Will specialty. They are about to break through space and Time.

He has a plan on how to do it but for that he requires a speedster ability to determine the weak point of space and time

Will seems to be looking for something. And he just keeps following Will inside the forest.

It is true what Will have said. The forest provides a shade. At night this place would probably be so dark and dangerous.

There is a lot of plants on the ground. Some of them are colorful and some of them emits fragrances.

Some of them have thorns on their body and some of them have some kind of medicinal properties that would help in the concoction of medical pills and even poison.

The air is also very clean and refresh one mind.

Azief had seen so much nature since the Fall that he almost forgets that during his time, the world is polluted and the air was so thick with harmful gases that there are many people that have breathing problems.

Nowadays, while Earth still have new innovation in technology, it is powered by the energy of the world or by some kind of external force that came from magic or a source of magic.

The world had changed. And so is their inhabitants. He takes a deep breath as they keep walking inside the forest

Azief then ask when he thinks about Oreki.

‘You were not mad that he seized the thunderbolts here?’ Azief asked. Will keep walking. He stops for a bit and then he answer

‘Why would I? I am not like him’

‘You have thunder too’ Azief simply said

‘Our thunders are different.’

‘Even thunders have differences, huh?’ Azief chuckles a bit

‘A thousand thoughts, a thousand paths’ Will reply.

‘It seems you have also been infected by my other friends’

Will did not understand so he asks

‘What do you mean?’

‘They all speak like they are composing a poem. Some are curt, some are vague and some of them are flowery.’

Smiling, Will chuckles.

‘Maybe, because you talk like that. If anything, I am infected with this style of speaking from you’ Azief laugh.

Their conversation seems normal and their reactions also seems normal.

But that in itself is abnormal.

If any other person could see and hear their words and their conversation and looking at how relaxed they were, they probably said that these two are very abnormal.

The Andes Plain is said to be a site of great gathering energy point.

There is the fact that there is no longer the temple of the Speedster to absorb the energy in the Andes Plain but there is also the forest that formed its own Laws and maintain a high concentration spot for energy of the world that gathered here.

The ground is filled with herbs and plants that would tempt researchers and Alchemist or pill makers that dabble in medicine or poisons.

Other than that, there is also monsters and beast that could provide great nourishment for the body and the development of one energy

But since everyone kenos that the Andes Plain is a place of high concentration energy, a place where there is a lot of herbs and precious monster, why would there be no people visiting it.

Because the monsters in the Andes Plain is not some kind of normal monsters

The higher the concentration of energy of one place also means that it did not only attract humans. It also attracts monsters.

And since these monsters came here, they have been growing, making there nest and home in the forest, in the underground caves and growing stronger.

From the top to bottom, the area of the Andes Plain is populated with monsters. In the sky, griffins, Sky Snakes and Wyvern patrol the air.

On the ground, beast-like monsters ruled the land. On the rivers and lakes, gigantic snakes slither inside it

Only a few people could dare walk on top of Andes Plain these days. Those that dare walk, is strong people

That is why their relaxed manner and their attitude that seems to be able to hold a normal conversation in such a terrifying place could be called abnormal.

Azief then ask Will again

‘I thought Oreki had once came to the Plains before you came?’

‘Yes’ Will answered

‘He came again?’

‘Also, yes.’

Azief frowned a bit and then smiles

‘Either he has a big appetite or he is desperate’ Azief said.

Smiling, Will reply

‘Also, yes’ Azief then could understand why. Unlike him, Oreki did not have the Universe Orb and he did not have his experience in traveling through the multiverse.

And with Orvanians fixing the structural integrity of the fabric of reality, it become harder for people to travel through the Multiverse.

As for the World Gate, maybe there is some hidden story between the Two Twin Sages of Japan with Hirate that prevents them from asking permission to enter the Multiverse through the World Gate.
