Victor soon returned to the village where the cave he found last time was located, and he was very surprised to see the changes that had happened on the village. People were happier and energetic than he remembered, though even then they still seemed like the chill bunch, but he could see the changes. Perhaps, the most surprise came when everyone who saw him stopped to bow their heads as he made his way through. To say the least, it was unexpected.

The statue of him at the village centre was just another surprise. Though that’s by the way.

Back at the cave, Victor continued heading down to the deepest point he had reached last time, where he found the one who spoke some things to him.

Times in this cave just showed him how much usefulness his skills had, or maybe he had been depending on them too much for everything. He could have simply teleported to the depth he he reached last time with his skills, but he had to walk the whole way because the cave blocked skills. The journey was more tedious than it could ever be tiring.

Some moments ago, Victor had been in a meeting with the rest of the others that went on the underwater trip to meet the king of Atlantis. With everything that happened, they never got his name, though not important as what was at hand.

Humans and all creatures above the sea received a threat from Atlantis that unless they surrendered, the waters would start rising day by day until the entire world was consumed in waves, and then the monsters of the seas would be unleashed on whoever survived. What they requested was for the surface to come under them as servants basically and live for the will of the king of Atlantis.

Of course, the response was quite obvious, as none of the prideful leaders of the earth would want to bow down to an enemy that had made it clear from day one that they were an opposition.

“Even in something as important as this, those bastards refuse to show their face.” One of the leaders of the science faction, more precisely, the VIM CORPS, said. The one he was referring to was the leader of the Razhin faith. For some reason, they suddenly kept quiet and did not involve themselves any further than they already had, and with no explanation as to why. Some had even started saying the fanatics had to have made some kind of deal with these water creatures.

.

‘Not that it concerns me too much, but I can’t not support humanity in such a situation. I live here after all.’ Victor said. His nonchalant attitude might actually be a ceiling for him, but at least it didn’t matter for the time being.

​ The meeting took place in the morning hours, and Victor went to the village settlement with the cave around afternoon. With the time that had passed since he entered the cave, it was well to assume that the outside had entered night time already.

Finally, Victor got to the level he reached, and where he encountered the mysterious person. Surprisingly, the man was still there and didn’t even seem to be bothered about Victor’s arrival.

The entire way there was filled with just descending stairs that continued endlessly downwards, with occasional rooms and spacious areas from time to time. This particular room where this man was however, was the largest out of all the rooms, and was probably might be as big as an acre of land. There were pillars all around with about 10 metres of space from each other, and the visibility was also low, such that Victor could not see the end of the room from where he would stand.

“You are still here, huh?” Victor said, as he walked around for a bit until he found the man.

Surprisingly, the man was still seating in the same place and the same exact position as when Victor found him last time. It really made Victor think if he had not moved since then or even before he found him. It was a bit fascinating of a thought.

“You have come again. Hmm… So you’ve experienced it, the power that lies beyond what you know.” The man said. He wasn’t really so much as asking, it was more like he made a statement.

“Yes, what was it? It didn’t seem to be a skill either.” Victor said, this time being a bit curious as it showed in his voice.

“To explain it would be complicated for your mortal mind, so let’s go with the simplest way to see it. Frankly, it is what lies beyond the power those in your world, including you, possess at the moment.” The man said, not really paying attention to Victor’s presence.

One thing Victor quickly picked on was his wordings, ‘mortal’. It was certainly telling.

The man did nothing as he sat on crossed leg in a lotus position on top a small mound that had no particular fanciness to it, as was quite low. He had on attire that covered him from the neck section to his very feet, not even his hands were exposed, and his entire head was covered from sight with a hat that had cloth falling from all sides blocking any eyes from catching a glimpse of his face or even the back of his head.

Though Victor had thought of it before, he decided to disregard it at the moment, as he truly felt that the one before him was not someone he would be able to beat even with all his skills. With the use of the word mortal however, Victor had resurfaced the thoughts.

“Hmm… You seem bothered? Do you seek this power?” The man said.

“Can it be thought?”

“Not exactly, but I can show you the way to unlocking it.” The man said calmly, and immediately, Victor became interested.

While Victor was happy that he had just like that gotten the opportunity to learn something completely amazing, there was the looming question of why this person would be so generous as to teach him something like this without any demands or request. It all seemed too good, and as the saying goes, if it’s too good to be true, it’s probably is.

‘But then again, he had already predicted that I would make contact with such a power, and with the mortal thing…’ Victor’s thoughts were pacing in his head as different possibilities came into his head.

“Why don’t we begin immediately then?” said the man, who had still not moved an inch.

.

.

The settlement, village, where the cave was located, had been saved by Victor the time he came initially, and since then they held a certain level of respect for him, and probably because of the skills and strength he showcased, they treated him almost like a mini god. What was left was to begin praying to him and worshiping him.

Victor made them a promise that he would bring them out of the village and grant them power. They were obviously very overjoyed to hear this, and prayed for his safe return from the cave. To whom they prayed to at the moment however, he couldn’t say, but he just hoped it stayed that way.
