The Several Fates

Portal Guard

The figure stretched out his right hand, his five fingers opened as if he was trying to catch something. Then from his hand appeared slowly a large scythe with a spear at the end. Without a soundless light, it quickly held the scythe handle perfectly.

With just one hand? That much scabbard? Die me, thought Ava while biting her lower lip. Sweat pours from all the places on his body. He's nervous, definitely. He's scared, maybe.

Rumbling sounds rang out from the sky where the black figure appeared. Ava blinked her eyes, trying to calm her mind. The figure fluttered his scythe down.

He still remained in his previous position, hovering above the sky. From behind the back of the figure, a rotating symbol appeared. The magnitude may be able to eliminate five cows at once.

Ava was surprised, she had never seen such a symbol before. It's unusual, it's complex. It consists of various shapes such as circles, squares, hexagons, and corners. She's not one of Angel's?

“Who are you?!” Ava shouted at the figure.

Unexpectedly, the figure muttered without any words that Ava understood. His voice did not echo like the usual race Angel did. It sounds like the voice of a teenager going through puberty.

What the fuck? The horror that Ava had felt just vanished. He was now even a little curious while holding back the look of his face to keep looking serious.

Is it just a kid? Just be right! But I have to stay calm, don't underestimate, don't be rash. The grip on the sword that had just started to loosen began to be stretched. He does not want to be careless one bit.

But the figure suddenly pointed his scythe upwards. A white light appeared from the tip of the spear on the scythe. So dazzling, Ava raised her left hand to protect her eyes. He could not see for sure, the light was too much and too white.

A moment later the light disappeared as well as the winged figure. Ava widened her gaze to the sky, perhaps the figure was flying on one side.

Heh? Where's she? The light was just a means to escape, Ava was sure of that. It was likely that he was afraid of coming face to face with Ava. There's no way she's scared.

Ava knocked down her body, her tired ass was left to hit the sand. He's very relieved. Hehe.. Maybe my acting worked, strong-ass.

He did not think what if the figure had hit him. Especially with such a large scythe, perhaps he would be sprawled in one strike. Or it could be that the figure had attacked with his magic, threw a magical ball, or even rained down with lightning.

“Ah.. At least I'm safe now. But, who exactly is that figure?” Ava threw her body into the sand.

“Looks like she's a girl, judging by her features and voice maybe she's still a kid?” he put down his sword and turned his right hand to his forehead.

The sky he was looking at started to blush. Soon the second sun will set. How many days passed, but that was not what he was thinking.

He's getting tired. It might not hurt to rest for a while. Relaxing his muscles, calming the mind was also not a bad choice.

After all for what is the rush to the camp, it is also not home. There was no home for him to go to other than that place. He was just a wanderer and all he could do was wander. He only knew that this was the mission he had to work on.

Tests.

Tests.

Tests.

Ava opened her eyes immediately. He felt something small and wet coming down his face. The water!

Immediately he prepared special equipment that was in his backpack. The device is a collector of water, he developed it himself.

“I don't think I'm so lucky! Nature has sided with me!” Ava was very happy. He deftly assembles his equipment. One by one, they combine. “Quick.. fast.. come.. fast,” he hastily.

The equipment is very simple. It is made of only a few folding sticks, a piece of cloth, and a drinking place. The sticks are hooked on the edges of the fabric which is deliberately made rather loose in order to hold rainwater.

The cloth he used had a hole in the middle of it. If it has been erected, the hole is right at the bottom of the fabric basin. So that the water will flow into the hole and directly lead to the right drinking place placed under the tool.

This equipment can also be used as a simple tent. Just stay to give a sheath on the side to make the wall. If the weather is hot, the center of the tent is given a long stick so that the ceiling of the tent becomes higher. The vents are left open.

“Waahh... I can still live longer..”.

The earth was not too big. Actually it was just a collection of land that was in the middle of a valley surrounded by hills. When viewed from above, the formation of the hills will form a square.

“Ava! Oi...” a familiar voice sounded from behind the hill on the north side.

Ava was silent. Lying in the middle of the valley was very calming. He ignored that call. Eyes closed.

The voice of the call was heard again. This time closer. Followed by the sound of footsteps scratching the running sand.

Ava opened her eyes with force. Flickering to relieve drowsiness. The sunlight entered into it, making his pupils shrink. Too much light and it's blinding.

Ava got up from her place. Turning his back to the right and to the left while yawning loosely. It feels so fantastic. The wind added to the perfection he felt.

Then he turned his gaze towards the voice of the call earlier. He saw at about ten meters ahead someone running. Ava looked at the man's face, it looked like the man was exhausted. Ava waited for the man without a wave of hands. He still stands in his place.

The man came in breathless. He bowed his body and began to catch his breath. Ava sat right in front of the guy. Watch the person's breathing falter. Sweat comes from different places. His clothes got wet.

“Have you got?” welcome Ava to the man.

“Is that how you welcome me?” Eldo replied with a slight laugh. He's still panting. “You have water?” he asked while extending his right hand.

“Didn't I tell you to go find water?”

“Oh, yes I forgot. It's worth it like something was missed,” replied Eldo as he scratched his head and chuckled.

“Stupid..” Ava was getting frustrated with this guy. A few days ago, Ava lost her horse to this man. Not to mention if you want to remember, this person has also made it in this endless stupid mission. Then now, ah, complete already reason to hate him.

“Eh,. but I have..”

“Be quiet,” cut Ava by welding.

“I want to organize my thoughts,”

“But..” his voice was cut off again, Eldo was only able to see Ava leave him.

“I saw someone who came out of the portal,” his voice was so bright that only himself heard it. “Ah, whatever. I'll go to my own tent too. Wleekkk...” he said mockingly.

It was in the middle of the mound that the two of them had spent the past few months. Their mission is to monitor the portals that appear suddenly in the area. Right behind the north side hill.

They didn't know what the portal was. What is clear is that the appearance of the portal is strange and may be dangerous. But until now there are no signs that prove that the portal is working. The sensors they have installed have not given any sign of meaning.

Nothing appears or disappears into it. This is a strange thing, ordinary portals can only last a few minutes, it will drain the power of the wearer or maker.

Another weirdness of this portal is that the inside of the portal is not visible, it is dark in color. Usually, the portal will show where the destination of the portal is with a picture that appears on the inside of the portal.

The months began to appear. It is followed by the constellations Vipene, Yonyik, and Jovehokeuj. They are competing to show their amazing action. These short nights the sky feels very crowded with a sprinkling of tiny lights. The colors are ready to surprise those who never look at it.

Anyone would bet that the world is beautiful. Very lovely. To the extent that no one thought it had gone too far and the feeling of awe that had once tempered was gone.
