Chapter 653 Demon's Attack.
''Why am I here?'' A lonely voice rang in a dimly lit building, located in the southwest area of White Paradise. It belonged to Darth, who was stargazing with a thoughtful expression.
He didn't understand the reason for his summons here. He had tried hard and for a long time to receive a legacy, but ultimately failed to achieve his dream. He wanted proper power to fight against top players. For once, he wanted to be the main actor.
However, some dreams were never to be fulfilled.
Darth realized it and didn't even understand why he was chosen in the tournament. Everyone was so amazing and he just happened to survive the first round by fluke. Then, it was boss fights, and he could barely do anything.
Darth sighed long and hard until he finally tore his gaze away from the stars, drew the curtains shut and fell onto his bed. It was a dangerous time, and he would have wanted to stay with his family. However, it was hard to resist the invitation from Arthur and the Gods.
'Maybe if I asked them, they would let me leave.' He thought with a yawn. 'After all, I am powerless.'
...
Shiva placed his palm on the pearl and said. ''I choose... Darth.''
''Oh?'' Arthur's eyebrow jumped. It was a rather unexpected choice.
Gaia clapped her hands and said. ''Alright. Everyone had already chosen their carriers. Now, we need to get them used to their powers before demons attack.''
''What about you?'' Ceto asked. ''You hadn't chosen your carrier yet.''
Everyone turned to Gaia.
Gaia cheekily grinned. ''Oh, but I have!''
''Oh, who?'' Primordials and Arthur were surprised.
''Secret~'' Gaia winked and smugly looked out of the window. 'It's no fun if I reveal it!'
...
Alice helped Luna to sit on the bed while she used her napkin to wipe her lips.
''Are you alright?'' she once again asked after seeing Luna calming down. At first, she vomited out of nowhere, then started crying. Of course she would be worried!
''Yeah...'' Luna replied with her heart racing. Her facial muscles went numb after smiling so much. She could barely contain herself.
Alice sighed in relief and nodded. She then rubbed the back of her head with a slightly uncomfortable expression. She felt a small stinging sensation when they were in the bathroom. Also, she felt like she was suddenly much stronger...
''Fwoo...'' Luna heaved a sigh and asked, ''Sorry about that. Umm, do you have your phone with you?''
''Ah, no...'' Alice shook her head. ''We left in a hurry, so we didn't have time to return to our houses...''
Luna and Alice met with a Legacy Company representative in the construction area. There was one Legacy Company building in each major city. Thus, it was easy for Arthur to contact any player.
The representative spoke to them and had already ordered them a private jet, which took them directly to White Paradise in a few hours. It all happened so fast that they could barely react.
Thus, they didn't have time to pick up any stuff from their homes.
''Ah...'' Luna nodded. She didn't have her phone also. She would have wanted to contact Isaac and tell the news. But alas... I guess it had to wait.
She was slightly afraid of Isaac's reaction. He'd shown positive ideas about having babies, but not yet. In his opinion, they were still young—only 19 years old.
However, Miss Fate played its tricks and caused her to become pregnant, which was quite strange since they hadn't lately been in much intimate contact in real-life and often did it inside the game. And when they do it in real life, they always use protection.
Thus, that made her think about Moon City and their intimate encounter... Was it possible that it was also possible to grow pregnant that way? Ridiculous, it shouldn't be possible...
'Is it possible?' Luna thought while hugging her legs.
''Yawn... I am gonna take a quick shower before going to sleep. Will you?'' Alice stood up and asked.
''No, I will be fine.'' Luna said and lay down on the bed. She gently rubbed her stomach while looking out of the window with blissful smile.
''Alright.'' Alice left the room, walked to the kitchen and took a quick gulp of water. As she turned around, preparing to return to room to get to shower, she noticed a strange phenomenon outside.
She slowly turned and drew the curtains. In the outer space, she was outlines of spaceships, appearing. They filled the sky and looked like the entire sky was suddenly much darker.
''T-T-Those are...'' Alice covered her mouth in shock. There were thousands of enormous spaceships!
The spaceships were also loud. Everyone woke up because the strange humming sound, which made the earth shake and trees tremble.
The lights in nearby buildings was immediately lit up. Everyone opened curtains to look into the sky. Everyone had same reaction—shock.
Bam!
Luna left the room with a bang and ran to Alice. They both looked at the spaceships with shock filling their expressions. It was like they could feel the endless evil that demons have.
...
That night, no one slept.
Whether it was in White Paradise or on a different continent. Everyone trembled in fear as the demons had finally revealed themselves. The Internet was full of people-made videos, captured by their phone cameras, showing the frightening scene.
The sound of humming was like something from a scary movie.
The children cried, the elderly drew the curtains shut and hid in their houses. It didn't matter what gender one was or which race one was. Even though the animals ran back into the woods, the birds flew across the sky—trying to find shelter.
The Gods and Goddesses stood on top of Legacy Company's headquarters. With grave expressions, they looked towards outer space.
Then, they saw a flash. The spaceships unleashed their lasers and struck the barrier that protected the world. In the heavens, the God of Four Seasons tried to keep the barrier as long as he could. However, his body started slowly breaking apart.
With one regretful look, he was blown to pieces, and following his death, the barrier vanished.
