101. Trapped in A Black Hole
Drex and Rucif, who entered the black hole, tried to find a place where the end of the back hole could be found. They tried to reach a place that turned out to be very far away by teleporting. It's not as easy as they think, it's still very far away.
"Rucif, how is this?" Drex asked, getting tired.
“Don't give up now, Drex! Think of the people you love! Lea is waiting for you!” said Rucif.
"Yes, you're right! Let's run again! Gosh, I'm almost going crazy!"
"Hold my hand! I see something at the end, we're almost there!” Rucif said suspiciously.
Drex held on to Rucif's arm and shouted, they teleported to a bright place.
"Where are our Rucifs?" Drex asked.
"This place is very bright, did we get lost in another dimension?" Drex asked again without looking at Rucif.
Feeling ignored, Drex looked at Rucif. The man was frozen, still without blinking, without even breathing. His clothes didn't move like something had stopped living.
"What's wrong with you, Rucif?" Drex asked.
Feeling a little anxious Drex began to remember what Calestyn had said, that when they reached the end of the green hole, something strange would happen. Rucif will start to be unable to move because in that place time stops.
“I came to the edge of the black hole!” Drex muttered happily.
He began to take out the dagger that Calestyn said was a trumpet. To Drex's surprise, the dagger he was carrying turned into a trumpet an inch long in his hand.
“Okay, I have to blow it quickly!”
Drex brought his lips closer to the instrument, took a breath, and gave it a long, long blow.
Buuuuuuuuuu!
The echoing sound of the small trumpet was surprisingly loud, far from what Drex had imagined. The sound echoed, shaking the air and the room which was said to be the end of the back hole.
Drex looked right and left, immediately put the trumpet back into his pocket, and immediately pulled Rucif, who was finding it difficult to move.
"Woaah? What happens? Why he can't move?” Drex muttered in confusion.
Drex remembered what Calestyn had said that it was Rucif's job to take Drex to that place, but Drex's job was to be the one to bring Rucif back out of there.
“Argh! Drex began to shift Rucif's body, which seemed to be starting to merge with that place.
"No! Should not! You can't be here, Rucif! Let us go home!" Drex said.
"It's not easy!" Drex found it difficult to move Rucif.
Not wanting to give up, he tried everything he could to get Rucif to escape from that strange place.
"Come on! You can do it Drex!” said Drexy, suddenly sounding encouraging.
“He hardened Drexy, how is this?” Drex muttered, starting to get desperate.
“Calestyn said the trumpet you were holding earlier was the reason why you could still move normally in this place! Try to get that thing closer to him!” Drexy suggested.
"You are right,"
Drex picked up his trumpet again, holding it against Rucif. The man remained silent and did not wake up at all, only Rucif's body which was initially attached began to move.
“It works!” Drex immediately pushed him out of the place. They had a long way to go back to Greenland.
While carrying Rucif, Drex left the place carrying Rucif by pulling his arm. As soon as he came out, Drex could still hear the vibrations of the trumpet sound spreading rapidly in all directions.
“Wow, looks like it will be effective!”
"Why are we here, Drex? Let's go to the edge of the black hole!" said Rucif who had just regained consciousness.
"That's it, listen to that voice!"
Buuuuuu…
“That's the sound I made with the elf trumpet. Now we have to go back home! Show me the way, Rucif!” Drex answered.
“Wow! Good job, Drex! Let's go, follow me!"
Rucif sped away quickly as did Drex who combined all his strength to get out of that place quickly.
Sriingg! Crash!
A familiar voice started to sound.
Something very large was seen confronting them in inter-dimensional space in a very dark black hole.
"Good grief! The creature found us Drex!”
"Aaaaaa...how is this Rucif where are we running?"
That big thing with a strange shape was carrying something in both hands, one holding a staff with a large spear tip like a sword, while the other was carrying a very large whip which if he whipped could make everything.
"Is he going to eat us?"
"Who knows? What's certain is that he doesn't like creatures who violate the rules of nature like us!" Rucif answered.
"But we have to go home!"
“Come on Drex! Muster all our strength to escape from here! Pull the thread if we go too far!” said Rucif.
“He's approaching! Run!" shouted Drex jumping up quickly and avoiding something that could have been his hand.
Hiyaaaa!
Rucif shouted as something turned around as if chasing him.
Like ants racing against a cat, the speed of the two of them is very different from that of a creature whose hands can reach all places.
Sraaat! Greb!
The creature easily caught Rucif, strangling him until he couldn't move.
“Run Drex!” shouted Rucif, wanting his friend to be safe.
Drex floated, seeing his friend so eager for him to go and save himself.
“Go Drex! Go!" shouted Rucif.
Drex trembled, this was the first time he felt afraid of a creature. A power that could not be compared with him at all. A creature that wants to devour his friend, only he can't leave Russia. He couldn't go alone, maybe he would survive but that wasn't the best because he would regret it for the rest of his life if he didn't try to save his comrades.
“You fool Drex! Run! You must save Green Land!” shouted Rucif.
Drex began to hesitate, but his footsteps didn't move away to escape. Turning around, he instead took his dagger and used it like a sword because it suddenly became elongated.
"Release my friend, Zaghlul!" Drex tried to slash something that was holding Rucif with his sword but it didn't hurt him at all.
"Stupid! Run Drex!”
"No! I will save you!”
“He's so strong Drex! Go away, just leave me alone! Save the others!” shouted Rucif.
“No, you too my friend! No! No!" Drex shouted, starting to go crazy and slashing his sword in all directions to ward off something that was moving fast as if it wanted to catch him.
Sraaat! Greb!
“Argh!” Drex was caught he couldn't move.
The creature grabbed him as if he wanted to crush all his bones. This was the first time Drex felt so helpless.
“Let us go, Zaghlul! We just want to save our land!” Drex said.
The creature was silent, it seemed he could understand what Drex was saying.
“You're Zaghlul the protector, aren't you? I knew you must be a guardian creature! Let us go, we only want to save our friends and our land! Just like you guard this place!” Drex said so pleadingly.
Rucif was already weak, he couldn't say anything, and his consciousness was weakening. The creature didn't do anything but just like Rucif, Drex started to feel weak.
"Zaghlul__let go of us!" said Drex who was also unconscious.
At Calestyn's house, the woman could hear the vibrations of Drex's trumpet. Only, the portal suddenly closed.
“Hah! Good grief! No! Rucif! Drex! How about this! This is all my fault!” Calestyn was so pale, she started lighting herself up.
***
The artificial rain made by Kiora and Lea is still heavy. This was enough to buy time and prepare all defense efforts, to defend Silver Mountain from attacks by troops led by Abere.
Lea and Kiora want to look for Drex and Rucif who haven't come down.
“Calestyn! We want to go up!” Lea shouted.
"Yes! Get on!” said Calestyn from a distance sounding confused.
Lea and Kiora looked at each other, they could both fly, but Silver Mountain was not a place that could be climbed by flying as usual.
“Calestyn! We want to meet Drex and Rucif!” Kiora shouted.
“We can't go up, our wings can't reach your house!” Lea shouted.
"Good grief!" the senior elf woman started to grumble and go down.
Shut! Calestyn came down with a wink and without words invited the two of them to disappear upstairs.
Shut!
The two of them were on the top of the Silver Mountain and started to look around.
“Wow, this place is cool!” said Kiora.
“This is serious!” said Calestyn.
"What's wrong?" asked Lea.
"Do you want the bad news or the good news first?" Calestyn asked.
"Good news! I don't like bad news!" Lea answered.
“Drex and Rucif managed to blow the fairy trumpet and sooner or later the fighting fairies will come!” Calestyn explained.
"That's good! They are indeed reliable!” Kiora said looking happy.
"Then where are they?" asked Lea.
“That's the bad news! They are lost in a black hole!”
“Whaaaat!” both of them shouted.
“I was trying to save them, but I couldn't detect where the two men went! Gosh, I'm going crazy!" said Calestyn confused.
"Oh no! What should we do, Kiora?" Lea asked looking very worried.
Kiora was silent, her face pale.
“Rucif! Oh no! Look for Calestyn again! Find out where my lover is!" she said.
"Your lover?"
“Oh no, Rucif!” Kiora is more excited than Lea, who is also Rucif's younger sister.
While the three of them were confused, the artificial rain created by Kiora had begun to subside. Abere ordered her men to start attacking.
"Let's finish them off! Attack!" the woman shouted.
The pollen bubbles are no longer there, many have fallen to the ground and lost their effect. The demon army began to move. Troops with big bodies and big feet walked at the front. Troops with flying abilities who had fireball weapons began to attack the hiding points of the fairy troops.
Blaar! Boom!
Fireballs were thrown, burning down the shelters and areas of trees leaving the elves nowhere to hide. Some fairies who could control water began to try to extinguish the fire. But their abilities and numbers are indeed unequal.
Xavier and the sword elves descend to fight against a large demon army. The stomping of their big feet and the grip of their hands are even capable of breaking the swords of elves. The creatures were quite strong and they could even strangle and slam two ordinary elves at once.
Xavier, who didn't have a strong army, began to feel hopeless, but still didn't want to give up, the elf man who was the prince of Green Land slashed in all directions, eliminating any demon troops who dared to set foot on the Silver Mountain.
Sring! Crang! Zap!”
One by one Abere's men died at his hands, perhaps of all the fairy soldiers this time Xavier was the strongest. He stood out the most compared to the other fairies.
“You're not bad! It's a shame you're all alone, Xavier!” Abere said dismissively.
The woman began to gather her strength in her right hand, the purplish red energy gathered quite a lot. The destructive fire energy that he deliberately created to finish off Xavier.
“Get out of your way! Let me finish that guy!" Abere shouted at her men.
“Tch! Do you want to fight me? I also have calculations with you, after you killed my advisor Geoff!"
“Hahaha, that man is so old. I'm just helping you to regenerate the position of palace official! Aren't I prettier?” Abere said arrogantly.
“You are nothing but a monster, more suited to rotting in hell!” Xavier answered.
“Humph! You're the only one rotting in hell!" said Abere throwing her destructive energy attack at Xavier.
Xavier dodged but Abere's attack followed him, like a shot that could be controlled. Abere's attack was certain to hit Xavier's body, which was very tired from the long unequal fight.
Until Xavier was trapped, he couldn't go anywhere and only created a weak energy barrier to withstand the energy collision that would occur.
Blaaaar!
Abere's energy exploded around Xavier but strangely another energy helped him create a Barrier. A white-haired elf man came riding a cloud and helped create a protective barrier.
Not just one, a fairy with almost the same shape serving with the wind came to help.
“Wind elf!” said Xavier in surprise.
“Forgive us, Prince Xavier, we were too busy adventuring! Hopefully, we're not too late!” said Dominic, commander of the wind fairy troops.
“Thanks for coming back, you guys came at the right time! Let's beat these demon invaders!" invites Xavier.
Dominic began to attack by creating a huge rotating wind, moving rocks, and hitting the demon troops.
Bruak!
The demons flew backward. However, some others came forward. The demons with greater strength began to launch attacks! He dashed forward scattering something like needles from his robes, causing many of the fairy troops to be injured.
"Be careful! That needle is poisonous!” Xavier shouted.
Some of the fairy troops who were hit by the needles began to fall, and the wounds turned blue, spreading, making it difficult for them to move. Abere smiled, of course, the elf army would not have predicted that the demons would have an unexpected attack like that.
Shuuut!
The tendrils of the plants moved, and the protective forest fairies who usually never came out began to arrive in large numbers. Flesh-eating vines suddenly appeared in the middle of the war area and swallowed the enemy soldiers whole.
“Hey! What's this!" shouted one of the demon troops who was caught by the tendrils that grabbed his leg.
Several swords tried to cut the tendrils but the large tendrils were quite tough, like coils of giant iron cables that were difficult to cut.
“Forest Fairy Ewa! Are you here?”
“Forgive me, Prince Xavier? I was in a very far place and never thought that this peaceful land would be attacked by demons!” she said asking for an explanation.
Abere looked annoyed, she immediately interrupted her men.
“Don't cut! Just burn the vines! Burn it down to the roots!” Abere shouted, starting to deploy an army of demons with the power of fire.
A fierce battle took place, some were burning, some were breathing fire in the opposite direction, and some were climbing up the trees walking and boxing with the big demons. A very chaotic scene is seen from anywhere.
***
Drex opened his eyes, he sat in a very spacious bright room. He was wearing white clothes and he felt that his look was very awesome.
"Where is this?" he muttered.
“Hey, Drex!” calls someone with a familiar voice.
The figure came closer, had a body shape the same size as him, and even had a face similar to his.
“Drexy? Is this you?” said Drex who saw the form of his guardian wolf which was also himself.
