Highest Place!
The Other Side of the World

In the tent.

Everyone has fallen asleep including Rudy himself, but! In her dream, Rudy had somehow been in the middle of the rubble site area that she was currently visiting.

Rudy who was still confused about his condition was trying hard to twist his brain, to understand what was really going on.

Is this a reality?

Because in his current dream, he felt still conscious and could think clearly.

He also tried to move his hand.

His hands were still responding as usual and all of his other limbs were still responding as usual.

But strangely how could he who should be sleeping in the tent, even in the middle of the ruins site.

"It's weird! Why am I here, when obviously I was sleeping in a tent, right?"(Rudy)

Rudy continued to ask in his mind, he intended to immediately get out of the rubble area, so that he no longer noticed the circumstances around him. And just as he was about to exit the area of the site, he was restrained by a transparent barrier that had apparently enveloped this area!

Rudy tried to calm himself down and turned back towards the site.

Then, only now did he realize that there was already a metaphysical figure that he had been wary of all this time!

The figure was standing in front of the cube-shaped stone that was there, and the metaphysical creature was standing facing the direction where Rudy was currently.

Rudy also felt that there was no other choice but to brave himself and then he slowly approached the figure.

Rudy walked towards the figure. Instantly, Rudy squinted his eyes because the figure looks like an LED light that emits a very dazzling light.

Then...

"I'm sorry, Who is this Master?"(Rudy)

Rudy asked the figure in the most polite language he knew.

"I'm just a keeper of this thing?"(No Name)

The figure also answered Rudy's question briefly, as he pointed towards the cube-shaped stone behind him.

"Excuse me Sir, I mean Who is the Master's Name? Can I know that?"((Rudy)

Rudy asked again while glancing at the stone behind the figure.

Obviously Rudy was a little curious about the cube-shaped stone.

"I'm ILDRAIZ the God assigned to guard this piece of Mana cube."((Lord Ildaraiz)

The figure who turned out to be a God answered Rudy's question, and He also gave his name and duties here.

Hearing the name and who the figure was, clearly made Rudy shocked and he immediately muttered wildly in his mind.

"How can this figure be a God? Because to be honest in Religion and Sacred Scripture that I believe never mentions the existence of Gods. The word God usually only comes from the Mythology of some other religions and beliefs that exist in this world, right?"(rudy's Mumbles)

Rudy himself did not believe in Gods.

This is based on the beliefs he holds today.

"Oh, the Angel is also another name for a creature like me."(God Ildraiz)

The god Ildraiz answered the question that only Rudy had thought of in his mind, and, this obviously made Rudy startled so he reflexively stepped back!

"How can you read my mind?"(Rudy)

Rudy asked because he felt strange, why this figure who called himself a God could read his mind.

"Between you speak for yourself in the mind or speak directly to Me, it makes no difference to me, because what is here now is just your psychic form. Or we can mean that right now you are just a form of consciousness."(God Ildraiz)

Bang out!

Like being struck by lightning, Rudy also realized about all the strange things that were happening to him at this time.

It made sense how he who was supposed to be asleep in the tent could be here right now.

It also makes sense why he was unable to cross the barrier here.

"So you mean, what is here right now is just my spirit?"(Rudy)

Rudy asked again and tried to convince himself.

"Your current form is not the spirit that resides in your human body. All I have called here is a form of your consciousness, for I have no authority to remove the human spirit from its body."((God Ildraiz)

The god Ildraiz explained.

"What do you mean, sir?"(Rudy)

However Rudy again asked because he did not understand about the thing that God Ildariz had just explained.

"The "conscious form (psychic form) is just the mind form of your spirit. Alright, I'll explain in a way that you can understand. . . If in the physical form of man, the shape of the mind is also physical, and that you usually call the Brain? Well, for the form of spirit in humans, the form of mind itself we call the form of consciousness or psychic form. So at this time assume you are dreaming, but in a conscious state"(God Ildraiz)

"Yes Master I understand."(Rudy)

After listening to the explanation just now Rudy finally understood about his current state.

So it was only natural that he had not been able to break through the barrier from this area, whereas Rudy was very confident that his spirit energy was much stronger than the accumulated energy present at this site.

Then the god Ildraiz continued his explanation to Rudy.

"Just like Me. . . Right now in front of you is just a fragment of My psychic form, while My main spirit is somewhere else. I've broken my psychic form and placed it all the places where this Manacube is."((God Ildraiz)

Well, because God Ildraiz is also a class of metaphysical beings. He only has a spirit form. And what is here now is just one fragment of his form of consciousness.

(His name is also a God, so He can break down consciousness like that)

"Now I will lead you to show you a little truth of this world. Just follow it and there's no need to ask because I'm certainly going to explain everything I can explain."((God Ildraiz)

"Yes Mr"(Rudy)

Rudy answered and nodded his head a sign he understood.

Then...

Without touching a single bit, in an instant the God Ildraiz had brought Rudy flying towards the sky!

Together with the God Ildraiz, Rudy was currently at an unknown height!

They continued to rise at an extremely fast speed and continued to streak towards the sky.

But since Rudy was now just a psychic form, he was completely unaffected even though they were currently sliding at the speed of light.

After a while, they finally stopped.

And now they are floating at a very high altitude, so that height has exceeded all estimates of anyone in the world.

Rudy turned his head to observe his surroundings. But all he saw was an endless darkness sprinkled with dots of light, that one that was flickering with an infinite number of filled the darkness.

Then Rudy also looked in the direction above him.

But what he saw remained the same.

Actually Rudy was looking around where the actual location of the Sun and Moon that he usually saw it.

"I should be in the sky right now, right? But where are the Sun and Moon?"

Rudy unintentionally muttered in his mind.

But now Rudy only observes the area around him and above him. He obviously did not notice what was underneath.

Well, that's only natural because Rudy only thinks if he is currently in the sky of the world, then he can see the Sun and Moon up close, and then he can see the Sun and the Moon up close, but what really happened now was that Rudy had been at a much higher altitude than the Sun and the Moon itself!

"Would you look down?"(God Ildraiz)

Seeing Rudy's confusion, the God Ildraiz spoke to him while pointing downwards.

Later then...

Rudy looked down at God Ildraiz's orders. Rudy was just surprised and noticed all of these things in silence!

The god Ildraiz again explained.

"We are at the very top of the world right now. Down there is a world where you all live, and then right above us is the first layer of the sky itself."((God Ildraiz)

Hearing this explanation, Rudy who was looking down, looked up again.

But what he saw remained the same as before, only an endless darkness adorned by the stars.

"Do you now understand that the world you live in today is only a cage in the midst of the vastness of the world itself?"(God Ildraiz)

The god Ildraiz kept talking and Rudy just kept quiet. He was still digesting about all the things he was looking at right now.

"Look over there. There are mountains covered in ice with tens of thousands of meters high that surround your world at this time. It is the Ice Mountains that have separated your world from the world itself. He stretched thousands of kilometers so that even the air in the area had frozen and formed a wall of air with very cold temperatures, then it soared high up into the sky above it . . . and because of that part of your world today has truly been separated from the other side of the world itself."((God Ildraiz)

The figure of the God continues to explain about the world to Rudy and Rudy just continue to listen without saying anything.

Rudy continued to process the various information that God Ildraiz was explaining, as well as from what he had seen himself at this point.

The explanation of the god Ildraiz continues.

"The world in which you live today is only the middle part of the real big world. Once upon a time, the world was not as separate as it is now. But about 30,000 years ago, the humans and all the metaphysical beings who lived with them, prayed to the heavens to create a safe place for them to take refuge. At that time, humans were the weakest creatures. At that time in this big world was filled with wild animals from small to very large. The beasts had also been so influenced by the aura of energy that the humans called them Mana Beasts. Then there were also the ferocious metaphysical beings that We called Demons and they were the ones who dominated almost all corners of the great world at that time! They were scattered on land, sea, and also flying in the sky so that it filled the entire area of the world at that time . . .in contrast to the metaphysical beings in your world today, metaphysical beings in the big world have a solid form of energy like a physical form. Because in the big world it is rich in energy aura, whereas because your current world has been isolated, then the energy aura in your world over time runs out. It was due to the aura that continued to be consumed in the absence of a source to resupply it. And because of the lack of an aura source, metaphysical beings in your world are not able to form their solid form . . . . How, have you started to understand now?"((God Ildraiz)

"Yes, Sir..." (Rudy)

"Yes, the humans on the other hand called the energy aura Mana, Mana, and Mana itself is like air that is constantly flowing and adjusts its intensity to the consumption needs required by the world itself. That Mana flow came from the periphery of the world which was a region of endless darkness. The area is just like the sky but there are no stars there!"(God Ildraiz)

The figure of the God Ildraiz also describes the source of the energy aura they once called Mana.

Then, He went on to explain about the human condition at that time.

"The color of the existence of Mana Beasts and Demons, the humans and the metaphysical classes that coexisted with humans back then, they all lived in fear every day! Even though they all keep fighting, but in the end they continue to be pushed towards the middle of this big world . . . those who do not know should take refuge anywhere else pray for help to the heavens. They continued to pray tirelessly until finally the miracle happened! Rows of very high ice mountains appeared suddenly and surrounded the central region of the big world at that time. The Ice Mountains formed a natural protective wall for them, which was the area that eventually became a safe residence for all of them at that time."((God Ildraiz)

And so the figure of the God Ildraiz continues to continue his explanation of how this world really is and about what ever happened at that time.

"After the ice mountains appeared, only then did the humans and all the metaphysical beings who lived with them at that time, be able to live with a little tranquility . . . But after some time passed, they returned to prayer and made another request to the heavens. That's because there are still groups of humans and other creatures that may still be left in the outer area of the ice wall. They asked for passageways so they could go to the other side of the iceberg. And finally one of the Gods was ordered to descend into the world to make a tunnel using stones made of solidified Mana. The tunnel also penetrated the ice mountains to the other side that is opposite it. Because the stone itself is made from Mana, the situation in the tunnel will not be affected by the cold from the ice mountains. And that tunnel would also be the path to drain Mana from the outside to the central side of the world at that time . . . And so, after the tunnel was completed, they began the evacuation process. The evacuation continued but was halted about 10,000 years ago, because the Demon nation had known of the existence of the tunnel so that the humans and metaphysical beings in the central area had to close the tunnel path."((God Ildraiz)

The explanation continued and Rudy was still focused on listening.
