On his first day, when Wain came to this world through the portal fleeing from the black mist, he immediately encountered the guardian of this dimension.

With the help of his world's residual essence, Wain could defeat a seemingly invincible foe. However, his difficulties did not end there. He faced a battle with this world, or rather with its essence.

The world couldn't fight like Wain. It could condense its energy into the essence and unleash its power on Wain. Otherwise, the world would have been destroyed, for, unlike matter, energy was not material.

Thanks to the remnants of his world's power and the essence of his soul, Wain could overpower the world's essence. It could not be called a real fight. In that case, this space would no longer exist, nor would the planet.

After those events, the apocalypse began in the world. Wain was not to enter this world. He was to be swallowed up by the dark mist and die, just like everyone else. However, fate was unpredictable for absolutely everyone, even entire worlds, and phenomena like Soul Essence.

When a pillar of darkness erupted from Wain's body during the battle with Luar, the world essence decided it was time to act.

However, the world essence wasn't going to fight Wain again. It was impossible, once again, space wouldn't withstand such shocks. Moreover, the essence of the world was not sure of its victory. The power of Wain's main soul was too mysterious.

But, the essence of the world had another way to get rid of Wain, which was to transfer the power to another being.

From the world entity's point of view, Wain was some kind of devil who wanted to destroy an entire dimension, but he had flesh and blood, unlike the world entity. The world entity could not create a body for itself, but it could channel a piece of its power into a person.

This plan had been ready for quite some time, but the world entity needed a suitable candidate for the chosen one. If a pillar of darkness were not again emanating from Wain's body, the entity of the world would not be in such a hurry.

"What is this...?" Luar muttered puzzled. He had never seen anything like it. This pillar of light was many times larger than the one that emanated from Lea when she created the masterpiece. It was like a colossal tornado of energy.

"It's weird... I hope another disaster doesn't happen now." Mumbled Wain looking at the pillar.

"You think the same thing is happening now as it did before the apocalypse started? It all started after the giant black pillar of energy appeared. Now, the situation is reversed." Luar said worriedly.

He was afraid that something bad would happen to this world. An adventurous spirit had only recently awakened in Luar, and he didn't want it to be over this very day.

"No, it's hardly the same. However, there could be a lot of problems because of this pillar of energy." Thought Wain looking off into the distance.

Unlike everyone else in this world, Wain knew what caused the beginning of the apocalypse and under what conditions the dark pillar appeared.

'That day, the space of this world was badly damaged, and that's probably when Soul Essence was able to get into this dimension...' muttered Wain to himself.

At that moment, he realized something. He had a theory as to why this world was different. Moreover, he had learned the indirect answer a long time ago when he first arrived at Overion.

'Because space was damaged, Soul Essence was able to get into this world, that means there was a reason why it didn't happen before... This world was protected by something, and it was the dark barriers on the borders of the visible world...' Thought Wain.

Unlike his world, this world originally had something unique and unexplainable: the dark barriers. People tried to figure out what it was and what was behind it, but not even the satellites could do so.

'Hmm, maybe the reason for the beginning of the apocalypse was the destruction of these walls, which happened because of the damage to space after the dark pillar appeared...' pondered Wain.

"This beam is gradually getting stronger..." Luar muttered.

"Yes." Wain nodded and continued to stare at the beam. Something bothered him: he could see the beam, but he couldn't tell where it was coming from.

'If that pillar of energy was beyond the horizon, I wouldn't see it fully or at all. However, it looks as if the pillar is quite close...'

Wain thought of the beam coming from a place similar to the Isle of the Damned. Wain still did not fully know the whole truth about the Isle of the Damned. But, he guessed, the place could be in Void or even Purgatory.

Crackle.

As Wain and Luar stared intently at the pillar of energy, they didn't even notice that cracks began to appear in the azure sky above their heads.

...

Somewhere in a deep hole filled with various debris, in a place unknown to anyone.

A girl with short crimson hair lay, but she did not have long to live. She was seriously wounded, there was a massive, through-and-through hole in her chest, and many of her internal organs were destroyed.

She was breathing heavily and could not say a word. Every breath she took could have been her last, and she didn't even notice what was going on around her.

Suddenly, lilies began to appear from beneath the piles of debris. Most of them were either scarlet or black. More and more were appearing with each passing second. They were like a countdown to the moment when the girl let out her last breath.

After a while, the piles of garbage looked like a field of flowers composed entirely of black and scarlet lilies. It was a strange and surprising picture.

Then the lilies came closer to the girl, they encircled her like a floral coffin, but she did not see it. Before her eyes, everything was as if in a fog, and then she prepared to take her last breath.

However, it was at that moment that the sky worldwide became snow-white, like freshly fallen snow. Just as Luar had said, it was the exact opposite of what had happened during the appearance of the dark pillar of energy.

Everyone was shocked. Two months after the beginning of the apocalypse, something amazing and unexplainable had happened again. Many were mesmerized by the scene, and a fire was kindled in their hearts.

But, many once again shuddered with horror, and their souls were consumed with fear. They didn't want to relive what had happened two months earlier.

Whoooosh.

Suddenly a snow-white beam of energy struck the girl in a place unknown to anyone. The girl was lucky because she would take her last breath a moment later.

Simultaneously, the lilies around her began to gradually turn white. This process was quite a long one. The scarlet and black petals gradually submitted to the girl's new power.

When each of the thousands of lilies became white, the beam of energy disappeared. It was completely absorbed by the girl.

The girl's consciousness could not withstand such an onslaught, and she immediately fainted.

Then the white pillar of energy that everyone on the planet saw disappeared.

,m ...

"Is it over?" Luar muttered incredulously.

"It seems so. I hope that no catastrophe follows this pillar phenomenon," Wain muttered, staring intently in that direction.

"Well, there certainly won't be a second apocalypse. It's impossible and would be some kind of nonsense." Luar said with relief and looked up at the already azure sky.

"What the fuck is that?!" Luar muttered stunned.

Wain immediately looked up at the sky, and his eyes widened in shock. He had seen cracks appear in the sky once before. It had happened in Purgatory, where he had fought Forgotten. It was his best and most dangerous fight in years.

This time, however, it was different. The cracks in the sky grew larger, and after a couple of seconds, shards began to fall from the sky like glass. It was like a real fall of heaven.

Behind the shards was vast darkness that horrified anyone who dared to look at it. It was like a bottomless abyss, capable of consuming anything and bringing disaster upon the world.

Then various monsters began to fall from where the pieces fell off. It was like a waterfall of monsters. Wain couldn't even count how many there were.

Wain did not understand what was happening. He did not expect that the consequences after the energy pillar appeared would be so catastrophic.

"Is this world really going to be destroyed! This is madness!" Luar exclaimed.

"No, it's not likely to happen. Look, the cracks don't appear anymore. Most likely, the sky will recover after a while, but I'm afraid this world will be destroyed by then." Wain said, looking at the monsters approaching them.

Similar things were happening all over the world. Every city was attacked by a barrage of ruthless monsters. At that moment, each of the people had only one thought-'Fight.'

They could not let the monsters destroy their world. People had to do whatever it took to protect their homes. Many of those who hadn't even activated their Soul Altar yet decided to fight anyway.

Perhaps it was influenced by bravery, perhaps by desperation, and thus they decided to die with honor, but it didn't matter. At that moment, all of humanity was united in some way in the face of a common enemy.

Wain was no exception. He glared icily at the monsters and muttered coldly, "One world has already been destroyed before my eyes. I will not let it happen again."
