My Yandere Wives are Transcendents-Chapter 327: You will die if anything happens!!
In the vast expanse of a world shrouded entirely in darkness, a lone beacon of light shimmered amidst the void.
It was a spectacle so mesmerizing that Pearl couldn't help but inquire, "What is that?" Her eyes, fixated on the pitch-black sky, were drawn to the sparkling anomaly that pierced through the gloom.
"Let me check it," Eli declared with curiosity, his foot firmly planted on the ground and,
'Boom!!' freewebnøvel.com
"Wai---Tsk" Pearl clicked her tongue in frustration as she watched Eli already soaring towards the heavens, his silhouette fading into the dark expanse above.
As Eli propelled himself towards the seemingly limitless sky, there amidst the darkness, he encountered a mesmerizing sight: swirling white sparks, reminiscent of a... portal.
A smile adorned his face, a mixture of excitement and relief, though he reached out towards it, the distance seemed to be still too far.
'BOOM!!'
Returning to the ground with a thud, Eli turned to face Pearl and Arlyne, his countenance illuminated with jubilation,
"That's the portal!"
Pearl and Arlyne exchanged surprised glances, their tired faces momentarily alight with hope as they contemplated the possibility of escaping their current predicament.
However,
"It's dangerous, isn't it?" Pearl voiced her apprehension, her eyes betraying a hint of uncertainty.
"...." Eli's gaze flickered briefly towards her, his silence answered her concerns.
Indeed, Pearl's caution was not unfounded. The sudden appearance of the portal, suspended high above in the sky, was enough to give anyone pause.
Though their desire to escape was palpable, the serene atmosphere that enveloped them now seemed tinged with apprehension, overshadowing their initial excitement.
"Let's test it then..." Arlyne's voice broke the uneasy silence as she rummaged through her belongings, searching for something to aid in their assessment.
Eli and Pearl turned their attention towards her, their eyebrows raised in anticipation as she retrieved a small stone. With a determined expression, she pointed towards the sky, her hand pulsating with a deep shade of crimson as her muscles swelled with newfound strength.
'SSHHHHOOWWW!!!'
With a sudden burst of energy, the stone shot towards the dark sky, propelled by Arlyne's enhanced strength. Sensing an opportunity to investigate further, Eli leapt into the air, joining the stone in its trajectory towards the distant portal.
Eli's gaze remained fixed on the swirling white portal, his anticipation palpable as the stone neared its threshold, poised to breach the portal when,
'Spark, Spark'
Eli blinked, his eyes registering the unexpected phenomenon.
The stone was gone!!!
Returning to the ground.
Returning to the ground, he relayed his observation to the group. "You mean, you saw sparks?" Arlyne inquired, her brow furrowing in confusion.
"Yes," Eli confirmed with a sombre expression. Sensing the gravity of the situation, he urged Arlyne to repeat the experiment, albeit with heightened vigilance.
'SSHHHHOOWWW!!!'
"BOOM!!"
This time, Eli channelled his mana, his eyes bulging with exertion as he strained to perceive any anomaly.
And there it was.... a fleeting glimpse of something, barely discernible, but enough to shatter the stone into countless particles.
Returning to the ground, Eli relayed his findings with a solemn demeanour,
"Something intercepted the stone before it could pass through the portal" he explained, his words weighted with seriousness.
Both Arlyne and Pearl exchanged troubled glances, their minds racing to comprehend the implications of Eli's discovery. Pearl hastily rifled through the documents, scouring for any reference that might shed light on their predicament.
To their dismay, their search yielded no answers, leaving them grappling with uncertainty and apprehension.
"Should I try to go n--" Eli began to inquire, contemplating whether he should take the risk and confront whatever lurked before the portal, but before he could finish,
"NO!"
"NO!"
Both Arlyne and Pearl interjected simultaneously, their voices filled with urgency and concern, their faces contorted with grim anger.
"What's wrong with you, Idiot? You are soulless, You will die if anything happens!!" Arlyne exclaimed, her tone laced with a protective fervour that caught Eli off guard.
"It should be us, who should test it! We can't let you throw yourself into danger like that," Pearl affirmed, her expression mirroring Arlyne's fierce resolve.
"Hmm?" Eli furrowed his brow, puzzled by the sudden surge of protectiveness from the two girls.
Sensing his confusion, both Arlyne and Pearl suddenly found themselves blushing as if realizing they had perhaps overreacted in their fervour to shield Eli from harm.
'Maybe it's because I'm the only man here, responsible for everything that happens to them,' Eli pondered inwardly, contemplating the dynamics of their small group.
Deciding to explore alternative methods of testing the portal's defences, Arlyne began experimenting, hurling various objects towards the shimmering gateway:
Throwing a wood.
Throwing a tree.
Throwing a big rock.
Throwing Asher El--
"Wait!!" Arlyne's voice cut through the air, halting Eli in his tracks as he casually inserted himself into the lineup of projectiles.
"Hahaha..." Eli chuckled nervously, realizing he may have overstepped his bounds, yet unable to suppress a hint of amusement at the situation.
However, his laughter was met with stern glares from both Arlyne and Pearl.
Suddenly,
'THUNDER!!'
A deafening roar reverberated through the air, shaking the ground beneath their feet.
"Thunderstorm..." Eli muttered grimly, his expression turning serious as he glanced around at the darkening skies. Find exclusive stories on novelbuddy.com
"We should find someplace to settle!" Pearl exclaimed, her voice tinged with urgency as she scanned their surroundings for shelter.
But as they ventured forth in search of place, the rhythmic sound of typing echoed ominously in the distance,
'Tuck, Tuck, Tuck, Tuck..'
'Tuck, Tuck, Tuck, Tuck..'
'Tuck, Tuck, Tuck, Tuck..'
'Tuck, Tuck, Tuck, Tuck..'
In a certain cave-like place, they stumbled upon an unexpected sight... Four Thunderbonii, their bony bodies gleaming in the dim light as they chattered amongst themselves, their jaws moving with mechanical typing machine.
Eli hid in the corner while covering Arlyne's mouth to stifle any inadvertent sound who had a horrified expression as for Pearl she was hiding behind Eli.
'.....What's wrong with these Transcendents!! Scared of Few Dog eating Bones!!!' Eli couldn't help but wonder.
Eli's initial instinct urged him to confront the Thunderbonii, especially considering their unusual behaviour and the potential advantage of acquiring their advanced equipment. However, a glance at his team huddled behind him with expressions ranging from fear to uncertainty gave him pause.
He was already feeling guilty pulling these two useless idiots into his mess. So instead of taking any more dangerous steps, Eli decided to leave and search for other places.
And soon they found a place that was,
"Isn't this the same place we entered?" Pearl asked, her brow furrowed in confusion as she noticed the scattered bones littering the floor and the dark patches staining the walls, remnants of their previous stay.
"But we've only been searching for a minute..." Arlyne muttered, her expression contorted in a grimace of disbelief.
The realization hit them like a heavy blow. Despite their few minutes of time, they found themselves back in the same cavern they had left long hours ago.
It defied all logic.....
Pearl's and Arlyne's faces drained of colour as their legs trembled beneath them, prompting them to hurriedly seek solace at Eli's side, clutching his hand.
Observing their reaction, Eli couldn't help but 'Sigh'.
While he appreciated the girls' fondness for him, his mind was consumed with concern for their predicament unfolding beyond this world.
"THUNDER!!!"
The distant rumble of thunder drew nearer, signalling the impending onslaught of a thunderstorm. Acting swiftly, Eli utilized his Arts Technique to seal the cave entrance, leaving only a small hole for ventilation.
"Arlyne, please create a fire," Eli requested, his voice laced with urgency. However, Arlyne recoiled, her hands trembling as they clung tightly to Eli's own.
"W-What?" Eli's confusion was evident as he tried to comprehend her sudden hesitation.
"A-Ask her!" Arlyne gestured towards Pearl, who flinched at the sudden attention.
"W-What do you mea--"
The cave reverberated with the deafening roar of thunder, drowning out Pearl's words.
"THUNDER!!"
"BOOM!!!"
"BOOM!!"
"BOOM!!"
"BOOM!!"
"KYYYAAAAAA!!!!" Pearl's piercing scream echoed off the cavern walls.
"..." Arlyne slumped to the ground, unconscious, overwhelmed by the chaos unfolding around them.
Asher Eli..... heavily sighed.
