Purity Online - The World For The Fallens
[Season 2] Chapter 20: The Mysterious Quest
Meanwhile, at the Yuzumoto family residence.
"Hey, Brother. It's been over three hours!!"
Aojin tried to wake her brother up, but there was no reply. Feeling annoyed, Aojin walked up to the outlet and was about to forcefully pull out the Sphere Part. However, as soon as he touched that part, low-voltage electricity instantly flowed into his body and shocked him, making him jump in shock.
"What is this?!" Both of Aojin's eyes widened. "Electric current? Is the device broken?"
"Hey, brother?"
He called her brother while shaking his body, but there was no answer or sign of awakening. He tried to forcibly remove Choker Neklace, but failed as well. The electricity again electrocuted his body. The boy panicked.
"It's terrible!! Really bad!!"
With a hunting breath, Aojin ran towards the living room and grabbed the phone handle.
"I have to tell this to mom and dad!!"

A few minutes later, Ryugai and Yuukaru arrived home. Both of them looked panicked and rushed. Their bodies were bathed in sweat and their breath was hunting. Aojin who saw the arrival of her parents went straight to her room. Ryugai and Yuukaru tailed behind him. In the room, Yamamura was lying on his bed with Choker Neklace still attached to his neck.
"You said low-voltage electricity was running through the device, right?" ask Ryugai to make sure. The question was immediately answered by Aojin with a nod of his head.
"That's weird. If it is damaged, the gear should be completely dead, "Ryugai's mind while staring at the lights on the Sphere Part that are still on, indicating that the device is still functioning.
Ryugai took out a pair of rubber gloves and tried to pluck the Sphere Part from the socket, but failed. Electricity flowed through his body, this time the voltage was stronger than before. Ryugai jumped backward, fell down. His breathing is irregular.
"Kok, can? He can drain the rubber that's an insulator material?" Ryugai looked surprised.
"It's weird ...," Ryugai said. "Essentially, electricity is a moving electron. Electricity should not be able to flow objects that are insulators whose atoms can bind strongly to electrons. Is ... is this a new kind of electron?"
(Readers: IPA news
Author: Lha, nadia. 'Kan, let's learn :v)
"And that voltage ..., why is it stronger than it was?" Aojin looked as surprised as her father.
"It seems like every time we try to unplug or forcibly unload the device, the limiter will open slowly and cause the voltage to get higher and higher."
"And also .., should virtual gear like this can not accommodate large amounts of electricity, let alone a new type of electricity like this. This thing should be broken by now. Did he also use a special insulator inside it as a barrier? Besides, where does he store this new kind of electricity? Does this device have an electron type modifier and a gauge inside?"
"But how does the agent modify the valence of its electrons so that they are not bound by the atoms in the insulator?" Yuukaru.
(Note: Electron valence is an electron that is in the outermost part of an atom. These electrons are very easy to move and this electron is what produces electricity.)
"Eat it ...," Ryugai said. "The culprit might be someone who is a very genius ...."
"Or ... a god ...."

Somewhere ....
Yamamura is seen being overwhelmed by deer-like monsters in a snowy region. His entire arsenal and armor had been destroyed and now he was forced to use his bare hands. His breathing is irregular. The power's almost gone.
"Sial ...," grinned. "Damn!! Damnit damnit!! Damnit damnit!! Damnit damnit!! Siaall!!"
"Blood ...?! So this is really the real world?! Not a game anymore?!"
"Am I .. going to die?"
"No ...."
"I don't want to die ...."
"I ... don't even know anything about this world!!"
"I haven't even established a relationship here!!!"
The deer monster was getting ready to go back to butting. A violent smile was etched on his face. Both of his eyes glowed bright red. His horns are covered in blood. Suddenly, the once clear sky became cloudy. The red clouds covered the sunlight, then drenched the area with a rain of blood. The snow lining the ground in that place was instantly covered quickly by a pool of red blood. Yamamura became even more frightened. His face was pale and his eyes were staring in disbelief.
"YOU'RE GOING TO DIE!!!"
"No .., don't ...."
"DEAD!!!"
"Don't do ...."
"DEAD!!!"
The deer monster again darted towards Yamamura, too fast to be unavoidable.
"DON'T!!!"
——————————————————————
"Huh!!!"
Yamamura awoke from his sleep with a body flooded with sweat. His breath is still breathing. His face still implied horror. It seems like everything that happened was just a dream.
"Dreams, 'does it?" Yamamura. "Let me see, my feet are still not on?"
The boy looked at his body. There was no blood or wounds. His body is intact. He is still healthy and fit. Merely, his clothes were drenched in cold sweat. He saw both of his legs still on his body.
"Thank God, I thought I was dead and a ghost." He breathed a sigh of relief.
"But, seriously. I'm still alive, aren't I?!"
Panicked, Yamamura got up and walked towards the mirror hanging on the wall of his room. The shadow was clearly visible in the mirror. For the second time, he breathed a sigh of relief.
"Thankful, huh. Uh, briefly. What'sthat?"
Yamamura's view captured a small bell emblem swaying slowly in the upper right corner of his vision. He immediately pressed down on the tiny emblem and a quest notification window appeared before him.
"What'sthis? Quest?"
"But ..., from whom?"
