Everything turned dark.
Just like my future.
Alden thought.
Just then a bright light assaulted his eyes. Thankfully he closed his eyes soon so it didn't damage him.
Only after a few seconds did he open them again.
That too, very slowly.
He expected to be back in his room.
But instead.
He was somewhere else. A dark empty space.
Where the hell am I now?
Did that damn monkey mess with my teleportation?
But why was he angry in the first place?
Did he really get offended by my dance so much?
Okay, maybe that's fair.
I'd kill someone too if they did that to me… assuming they weren't stronger.
Enough chit-chat.
Now we focus on where we are.
He looked around himself. Trying to make sense of where he was.
But nothing was in sight except some rugged mountains.
Just then–
Alden heard a low sound of metal.
Alden wasn't stupid enough to go in the direction of some mysterious sound.
So he was going to ignore it.
Or that is what others would have thought.
