Exiting the Dimensional Rift, Raymond becomes extremely confused as he steps out into what seems to be a field of some kind. As Vivian exits the Rift behind him, he decides to check the signature of it while he can. Sure enough, as he suspected it is the same as he checked before, except for the time.
"Fuck!" Raymond says as he is unable to predict how far back into the past they are, and realizing the situation. Vivian looks around as she fully exits the rift, and without hesitation glares over at Raymond. Raymond sensing a bit of killing intent, immediately turns, only to see Vivian glaring at him. However, Vivian's fun of tormenting Raymond quickly comes to an end, the moment a strange unknown man appears in front of them. The two of them are completely unable to do anything as the moment they lay their eyes upon him, they immediately recognize that they have no chance.
"How interesting, to think I would see a Human and a Blebian from the future here, along side of a Dimensional Rift." The strange man remarks as he takes one look at the two of them, then walks up to the Rift admiring it. They stand there in silence for a minute watching as he admires, and investigates the Rift. Suddenly, the man turns around with a look of confusion on his face.
"Interesting, seems like we have a Human, and a Blebian from the future, how strange." The man remarks with a soft chuckle in his deep yet hoarse voice.
{How the hell?} Raymond thinks as he and Vivian both jump back instinctively. However, that doesn't work as he suddenly appears from behind them.
"Well now, it seems like the two of you are quite the abnormal people." {Seeing as how the two of them both are around the same age, both physically and mentally, yet they seem to know almost nothing about each other, though I'm much more surprised by the fact that despite them not being the first versions of them that I have met, they are the first ones I can actually see… which means that these people have importance to meaning to my life…} "Especially seeing how your souls don't match the age for both of you." The strange man says, then thinks as he smiles, then remarks. Vivian and Raymond look at each other in immediate suspicion as they both immediately understand what he means by that. "My name is Maxwell Son of Shaman Clan Azulmar, I am currently the Royal Mage to his Majesty the Emperor Zeldan, of the Zeldan Empire." Maxwell, the mage says as he looks over toward the Rift, only for it to vanish. The two of them turn around, and look at him. "I would like to welcome the two elders who are 1006 years old, to our Empire, far in what would be your past." Maxwell says as he gives a slight nod.
{Fuck, he just had to go spoil my true age.} Raymond sighs as he accepts defeat.
{Fuck, seems like this bastard is someone we won't ever be a match for.} Vivian sighs as she also accepts her defeat.
"My name is Raymond Joy Oden, The Traveler of the Multiverse, once the Ruler of a Planet known as Feldoiya… Reborn I guess… Reborn inside the body of a Man sharing the same name as me who once died in the future only to wake up in the past, who died trying to achieve his Revenge. It's a Pleasure to meet you Maxwell." Raymond says as he gives a nod in return, staring directly into his eyes. Surprised by this new revelation, Vivian decides to do the same. Vivian raises her arm toward her forehead with her hand in a fist. She backhands her head thrice, causing blood to appear shocking Maxwell.
"VIVIAN FLORA NOLE, SUICIDE BLOOD DEMON OF THE NIGHTMARE MOUNTAIN. SOLE SURVIVOR OF THE BLEBIANS, DURING THE LONGEST WAR, SPANNING OVER SEVERAL HUNDRED YEARS, DIED DUE TO BETRAYAL. The war started from the death of a man called Raymond Joy Oden, though I was reborn in my younger body without knowing why. It's a pleasure to meet you Maxwell." Vivian says as she introduces herself the same way should would've in her past.
{So that explains her reaction when I introduced myself at Zuram Toran.} Raymond thinks remembering that he thought it was strange since the two never met.
"Seems like the two of you have had very complicated lives." Maxwell says with a smile, seeing that the two of the were fully telling the truth in their words.
"Excuse me Maxwell, was it, I'm afraid I have a question." Raymond remarks as he and Vivian nod as they look around. "Is there a reason we're ignoring the killing intent coming from all around us?" Raymond asks as he gestures all around them.
"I was wondering when someone was going to mention that." Vivian remarks with a smile on her face. Maxwell quickly scan the area with a thin layer of magic, sensing everyone that was there.
"My apologies I didn't sense them, please feel free to attack them, they are Aliens from outer space, no need to hold back. Raymond laughs after watching Maxwell.
"What a horribly inefficient way of using sensing magic, brat!" Raymond remarks, as he gets an idea, and vanishes as he used swapping magic to swap himself with a section of the air, essentially teleporting him above Max. He smiles as he holds out his hand, causing five different elements to appear, then waves his arms in front of him, tossing them towards a bunch of enemies, causing an explosion to occur. Maxwell looks up at him in surprise, yet he becomes curious by the way he uses his magic.
"Don't Hog All The Fun!" Vivian shouts as she begins using her Vivelvor Technique. Shredding her body apart with Dark Nature Energy, yet healing herself with Healing Energy, causing Violet Orbs to appear from her body. She lunges forward toward the enemies without hesitation, cracking the ground a little, as she punches the humanoid Creature with Silver Skin, Enlarged Head, Golden Eyes, and Dark Metal Armor, trying to shoot her, in the face, killing it in one blow. The two of them swiftly begin killing left and right without hesitation, causing a bunch of destruction in the process. After watching for a little bit, Maxwell realizes that Raymond called him a brat… which suddenly pissed him off.
"Last I Checked, I'm Not A Brat!" Maxwell says as he holds up his staff in anger, then suddenly slam it onto the ground, causing the ground to shake quite a bit, causing all the enemies to stagger, and some to fall. However Vivian, and Raymond laugh in response.
"Was that all you could do?" Raymond says as he appears right beside him, putting his hand on his shoulder as he laughs. "Watch, how Vivian does it, then I'll show you how it's really done." He says barely able to contain himself. Vivian smiles as she hears Raymond off in the distance, and immediately knows what to do.
{Well, then, guess I'll gladly surprise the two of them!} Vivian thinks as she stands there, she begins shouting as she strengthens her energy. As she does so, the Color of the Violet orbs leaving her body begin to darken in color, to become an extremely dark Violet Color. At the same time, Black orbs begin to come out alongside the Dark Violet ones. As a result, her body becomes much tougher, and harder. Satisfied with the amount that she has increased her energy, she jumps up with all of her might, sending her flying high in the air.
{I didn't know she could do that!} Raymond thinks as he look up, surprised by seeing Vivian's skill. {Seems like, I still have much to learn when it comes to her, after all, I'm not sure even I could predict what she does next.} Raymond thinks with a large smile on his face, that he is unaware of, but Maxwell notices. Vivian keep going higher, until she rotates her body in such a way that allows her to kick off the air, sending her flying down toward the ground at incredible speeds. She makes eye contact with Vivian, with a smile on her face.
"Good Luck!" She mouths enough for Raymond to get the hint, and teleport him and Maxwell high in the sky. Vivian readies herself as she preps her fist, fully extending her arm, punching the ground at extreme speeds, causing the ground in the area to collapse, and shake violently. This leaves nothing but destruction for quite a ways. The area where Raymond and Maxwell were standing before hand is now nothing but rubble. After a while the dust clears, only for the two of them to see Vivian standing in the middle of a crater with a satisfied look on her face.
"What a monster!" Maxwell says as he taps his staff creating a small platform underneath himself so he can stand without the help of Raymond. Ray snaps his finger, causing Vivian to suddenly appear in front of the two of them.
"What'dya think?" Vivian says with a smile on her face.
"Not bad, but watch and learn!" Raymond says as he gives her a thumbs up, then flies down toward the area, seeing more enemies and their space ships appear.
"Wait, what does he mean watch and learn? A full enemy fleet has appeared!" Maxwell remarks looking at her in confusion.
"I may have just met this bastard, but I known, he isn't weak, so just watch." Vivian says harshly, causing him to shut his mouth rather quickly.
{These people are fucking crazy!} Max thinks as he is unable to understand why these people love fighting. Raymond looks around and sees that there are several thousands enemies that have appeared.
{Let's have some fun, and finish this in less than a minute!} Raymond thinks as he closes his eyes, relaxing his body, taking a deep breath. He essentially meditates for ten seconds to gather his energy extremely quickly. The moment he opens his eyes he holds out his hands, causing the ground below him to shake violently.
"That fucking show off!" Vivian remarks as she realizes what he's doing. Within the next five seconds, the entire ground for miles/kilometers shakes as it seems to rise. Using the ground, he sends the entire mass of land upward at an extremely fast speed, killing every single enemy, while making sure to avoid hitting any wildlife, Vivian, Maxwell, and other people that don't have killing intent toward him. once finished he sets down all of the land, snapping his fingers, restoring it to how it was before they destroyed it all. Afterward Ray snaps his fingers once more, causing Maxwell and Vivian to appear next to him.
"Seems like you've learned a new way to teleport around, since you're now able to teleport again along with others now." Vivian remarks as she looks over at him.
"Well yeah, an Idea came out, and I'm essentially using swapping magic, just with a section of air and myself or others as the target." Raymond says with a satisfied look on his face, knowing he one the little strength contest just now, by a landslide. Vivian sighs, knowing full well what that smile means.
"Alright, you win this time." Vivian remarks admitting defeat.
"Do you guys think that you could help the Zeldan Empire Against the Soulborn Kingdom from outer Space?" Max asks expecting them to say yes based on how they just fought.
"NO!" The two of them say simultaneously while glaring at him, surprising him.
"What?!, Why? The two of you clearly just had fun destroying them just now, so I don't understand why you don't want to do this." Maxwell stammers, clearly confused by their response.
"It's simple, Not only was I a traveler of the Multiverse, I was also the Ruler of an Entire Planet, because I didn't want war to ensue. I united the planet under my rule, and I only only showed myself every few decades. Monitoring the world from the sidelines. If possible, I don't want to experience War if it's not necessary." Raymond explains as he points to the fact that restored everything to how it was, without harming those that had no killing intent and protecting the wildlife.
"I agree with him on the fact that I don't want war, while the two of us love fighting, I'm sure the two of us would rather live a life of peace. Especially me, since my life was almost all taking place during war, so it's basically all I know. When I returned to my younger self, I decided that unless necessary, I would do everything I can to prevent the war." Vivian says as a somber look appears on her face. Maxwell tries to think of something to say, but seeing the looks on their faces makes him give up. After around a minute of silence, Raymond gets an idea that he finds interesting.
"Maxwell, quick question for you, based on the fact that you've been speaking with us, and weren't surprised by the rift, as well as us being from the future with having old souls inside of our bodies, I take it that you have some unique Magic and Spells of sorts?" Raymond asks with a grin on his face, which causes Vivian become suspicious about what he's planning.
"Of course, I learned the Spells that those of the Shaman Clan are allowed access to." Maxwell states as if it was obvious.
"Then it's simple, we'll help you, but not with the war, well it will help the war, but won't be directly involved with us. What if the two of us teach you several things that we know about War, and Energy manipulation, and you'll teach us how to use the spells of the Shaman Clan, and no one has to know that the two of us exists, well apart from your Emperor of course." Raymond says fully allowing his mischievous grin to appear.
"For once I agree, doesn't sound like such a bad deal to me, after all if only you and the Emperor know we exist, you won't be breaking any rules your Shaman Clan might have, because they don't know about it." Vivian chimes in happily, seeing that the proposal wasn't so bad. Maxwell thinks about it for a few seconds before he looks at the two of them with a serious look.
"If I do teach you guys my Shaman Spells, you won't teach anyone else will you?" He asks with a genuine look on his face.
"Well, I if it's my children in the future, I can't promise that." Raymond says without hesitation.
"That's fine, just make sure that they also don't teach anyone who isn't family, or like family." Maxwell says satisfied with the answer. "Well then, seems like it's time to get ready to meet the Emperor then!" He says with a mischievous grin, beginning to wave his staff around.
"Wait what?" Ray remarks in surprise.
"Sorry?" Vivian remarks along side Raymond, only for the three of them to appear in what seems quite the regal looking room.
"Welcome to the Zeldan Castle!" Maxwell says with a bright smile on his face. "I will be heading to the Emperor in order to set up a meeting and inform him of your visit, so please feel free to change into any of the available clothes, after all you guys requested to not be known to anyone else." Maxwell explains and remarks, then taps his staff on the ground, causing him to vanish. Raymond stands up, and snaps his fingers, cleaning the two of them.
"Seems like he wants his revenge for us embarrassing him earlier." Raymond scoffs as begins looking inside the dressers, only to see rather simplistic looking clothes. Vivian takes a look at the clothes in the area, then suddenly gets an idea.
{Wait, Raymond said that he was the Ruler of an entire world…} She thinks as she walks over and begins planning something with Raymond. She whispers it into his ear, causing him to smile. He decides to go along with with her scheme. Two hours past, and Maxwell stands before the Emperor in what seems to be an extremely beautiful garden, surrounded by a barrier of some kind.
"Very Well, Maxwell, I Believe it's time to summon them." Zeldan says in a stern, yet respectful tone.
"Very well then!" Maxwell says as he nods, then taps his staff, causing a small gust of wind as the two of them appear before the Emperor. However, the two of them are surprised by what they see. Raymond is wearing a very neat Crimson Colored Suit, to match his Rose hair with Dark rose highlights, along with a Gold colored undershirt to match his Golden colored Eyes. On his let shoulder, a silver metal feather jewel with an amethyst at it's core is adorned. A long, yet segmented Victorian Cloak is adorned to the back of his suit. Adorned on his head, a prominent yet small Sapphire Crown sit atop it, giving him a very Regal look, emphasizing his features quite well. Vivian on the other hand, wears a Deep Blue suit, to match her Sapphire Hair, with a Sky Blue undershirt to match her eyes. Adorned all over her clothes are symbols of the moon, blood, and water. She has a similar cloak adorned to the back of her suit to what Raymond has. Adorned on her head is a Ruby Crown. Maxwell stands there in shocked by how well dressed they are, when there was only scraps in the room. Raymond gives a slight Feldoiyan bow.
"It's a pleasure to meet you, your majesty!" Raymond says in a stern yet respectful tone. "It has been ages since I last met a fellow Ruler, My name is Raymond Joy Oden, the once former Ruler of the Planet Feldoiya, now a simple layman, I thank you for allowing us to meet on this fine day." Raymond says in the same tone, but smiles this time, reminiscing on his time as a Ruler, where he once used to do this stuff everyday.
"It's a pleasure to meet your majesty." Vivian says as she gives a very different slight bow than what Raymond did, she gives a Blebian Nobility Bow. "My name is Vivian Flora Nole, I was once nobility, but I have since been disowned by my family, so it's been quite a long time since I've greeted someone as Regal as you, so please forgive me." Vivian says in a respectful tone.
"To think that the two who have come from the future this time are Nobility and Royalty…" Zeldan says, then after a few seconds begins to laugh. This causes Maxwell to become concerned.
{I've never seen Zeldan laugh…} He thinks as his worries continue to increase.
"I get how you feel, I used to feel the same way when they first started coming to me, though it's been a few hundred years since then." Raymond says as he laughs as well. Zeldan looks at the two of them in the eyes, and nods, as he settles down.
"Very well then, I permit the two of you to train Maxwell to your heart's content, juts don't kill him, or the Shaman Clan will eradicate my entire Empire in less than a second." Zeldan says as he signals for Maxwell to teleport them away. Once again he taps his staff, and the three of them vanish away from Emperor Zeldan. "Fucking Hell!" {I'm glad those monsters aren't Enemies. I know Maxwell can't see magic, but while he has more magic than the two of them combined… their magic, was inhumane, I've never sensed something like that. Not even Zubidar had magic like that when I met him. If he's truly from the future, hopefully Zubidar as a Planet will accept them.} Zeldan thinks as he decides to relax himself by drinking some tea. Maxwell, Vivian and Raymond appear in what seems to be a small hut of some kind out in the middle of a forest. Maxwell simply sits down by the table, sighing.
"To think that Ubidar was ruled by Humans in the past, I sense Blebians and other species, though there doesn't seem to be that many of them." Raymond remarks, causing a look of confusion on her face.
"Wait, Maxwell and Zeldan are humans?" Vivian questions having her view of history completely shattered.
"Of course, Humans and Blebians might look the same at this point in time, which will change after the war. The main reasons humans have advanced so much unlike the other species is that we don't have a breeding season like other species do, neither do Blebians. Though based off of Vivian's face, I assume that they believe they also have breeding seasons like other species." Maxwell explains, causing Vivian to sigh after a few seconds. She looks over at Raymond, nodding toward the door. Raymond nods softly in response.
"Maxwell, me and Raymond have some stuff to discuss before we start training you, so if you don't mind, the two of us will be heading outside for a bit." Vivian says as she goes into deep though before exiting the Hut.
"I would take the time to relax for a bit, this might take a while." Raymond says as he gives max a thumbs up, before heading outside, leaving him by himself…
