The Dark Slayer's
[S3] Chapter 2: The Way Home



Leon sat down cross-legged while closing his eyes. The flow of energy around can be felt by it. Slowly he took a breath and then exhaled it.


The young man's mind began to calm down, the sweat that had been continuously pouring out had started to disappear. He remained unmoved for a while, then finally opened his eyes.


The young man stood up, looking around to observe. There was nothing strange, just an empty dimension with nothing but himself.


"Hm ... Is it true that I can get out of this dimension using my power?" Feelings of doubt began to surround his heart. It is true, said Ellise Leon strength is so great, but it is useless if it can not be controlled properly.


A few times Leon jumped around a little. Then he focused on feeling the energy around.


"Well, how do you control this power? Is it the same as controlling the power of the shadow?" ask Leon to himself.


Leon began to imagine in his mind, he imagined wearing a shadow robe. Sure enough, now he managed to wear a black shadow robe.


"My strength is to control the shadows," Leon momentarily fell silent, "and that's all I know about myself."


He took a deep breath while closing his eyes. Now he is imagining something.


"Shadows can create anything, but can what is created using shadows serve as where they should work." His right hand is directed forward.


The first thing that questions Leon is not about complicated things, but what is a shadow? And now he knows the answer.


According to him, a shadow is a reflection of an object. So, if the shadow is a reflection, then the object will have the same function if it is in a different dimension.


The different dimensions that are meant are none other than the mirror world. Therefore, one option to maximize the power of the shadow is to make something in the mirror world and pull it out into the real world.


Leon imagined a world inside his head, then the thing he highlighted the most was a white door. When his eyes opened, a white light shone from there.


Although it took a lot of time, the shadow of Leon's power formed a door. Soon, the shadow began to disappear.


When all the shadows had faded, a white-colored floating door appeared there.


Leon sighed while lowering his hand. His eyes that were shining were now normal again.


Although it was only the first time he had done this, it did not seem at all that he was exhausted. Perhaps, the amount of physical exercise while in the mysterious forest had made him develop rapidly.


In addition, due to the amount of energy received when he almost came out of the mysterious forest, Leon was already unable to turn into a black figure anymore.


Leon finally came down from the top of the black box where he stood. He slowly approached the white door he had made earlier while observing.


"It looks like this is the same as the white door that brought me here, but where will he take me after this?"


Although a little hesitant, Leon still ventured to enter the door.


His gaze was instantly blinded by the white-colored light. A moment later, a scene behind the door was clearly visible.


"Where is this?"


The wind rippled, blowing dust and dry plastic waste. The scorching sun is so stinging, it may be dehydrating if you stay here too long.


At the end there, there are ruins of tall and small buildings. Some look like circular objects that are now unusable.


The barren terrain was what Leon was foothold on now. His eyes widened, not believing what he saw.


"What's really going on here?" Leon was astonished, his footsteps slowing down as he got closer to the ruins.


"Then, where are we now?"


It is true that gravity here is not much different from our world, but the flow of energy is completely different.


"Where do you know that the gravitational pull is a little lighter?" This time Leon completely stopped his steps.


Yeah, it's a little weird 'cause I'm a bodyless soul. However, by using force I can figure that out.


"So where are we now? And why would I bring us here?"


Leon wondered more and more, this situation was really incomprehensible to him.


The only answer is, you randomly assigned the dimensional door coordinates until you got here.


"Is that possible?"


With that great power of yours, perhaps exploring this vast universe is not a problem. But....


"But what?"


Most likely your weakness is physical. The physical strength of a human is very weak, even if you have great strength, your body will still be destroyed if it reaches the limit.


So far, it has not been clearly seen the weakness of Leon, because his strength is still not fully used. However, just as Ellise had said, the human physique would one day reach a limit where it could no longer survive.


Now Leon sighed again. "Yes, you may be right, but I must return to our world to be able to clearly see the situation there. My goal is to go home to atone for my sins, I hope there's something I can do later."


True, Leon's goal now is to seek penance. After all, the mistakes of the past still haunted his mind until now. However, he did not know what he would see when he returned.


He had thought about this several times, and he was not sure there was anything special to do by him. However, despite his triviality, he was determined to first make amends to his father.


Why would he want to do that? The answer was simple, because he had abused the power his father had entrusted to him.


"Ellise, I hope you'll help me."


Helped what?


"You said I set the door coordinates at random, but if you want to give us a picture of our world, maybe I can go right there."


But I don't know how to describe it. Ellise was confused as to what to do now.


"Not to be confused. You said our Color Crystals were fused, which means you can also use the power of my babies in my subconscious."


Leon closed his eyes, concentrating on getting into his subconscious. There was Ellise tilting her head in confusion.


"What do you mean?" ask Ellise.


"Imagine a place in your mind, then feel my strength in your soul." Leon smiled warmly.


"All right, I'll try. If it doesn't work out, don't blame me."


"You won't know before you try."


With Ellise and Leon's Color Crystal united, in Leon's subconscious, Ellise can use Leon's shadow power. It is not as powerful as Leon, but it can still describe something like the original.
