Everything had become normal for Nate.
But for just him not others.
After that darkness had gone from the lower dimension Nate and Heart both were suddenly in their world the exact same space where Nate had gone.
And after that the next moment the D-Bike disappeared and The Duel disk become something else.
"WOW! You can do that too!" He said amazed looking at his left hand.
"Yeah!" The voice was silent like you can't hear unless you focus.
"...Hey it's 6:30! OH NO!" He said looking at his left hand.
"What happened?"
"I believe when I had gone to that dimension it was around 7."
"... I see so it is... huh."
"It's next day! I haven't gone to my home! MOM AND DAD WILL DEFINITELY KILL ME!" He said while sprinting out of street.
"Agg wait!"
He turned around to take a look.
"What happened?"
"Actually... there was a old uncle who had that glowing red liquid coming from all his parts, he was here as I had gone to that dimension but I don't see him."
He said looking at that same spot as last time.
"Maybe someone reported it to police and take the body away. He was dead right?"
"Yeah I saw him dying and I couldn't do anything."
"..."
"Do you know something?"
"Actually..."
# AT LOWER DIMENSION
As that slim figure had transferred Nate to upper, the real world. By a sudden bright light. he was staring at nothing.
"Ler. Ker." He said two words which meant names
""Yes! Commander Hel."" Both from nothing at where he was staring came like air become visible.
"This is enough. Now go back." He said in same giant and heavy voice.
""?""
Both confused because even if Hel was Commander he had no right to interfere with the mission they got from direct darkness. And the consequences of this should know Hel more the these two.
"But..." as one tried to say
"There is no obligation for you two to not follow my command." He said
"We know." They said
Both on one knee and one hand on it while head low and eyes closed.
"But we" they continued "we haven't captured that girl who had played big part on defeating lord zarc."
"You two need no worry for that. What should had been done is done."
Grip!
Two different sound of regret and griping something tight came, so tight that is might shatter the inside.
""Yes. We follow your command.""
"You two can't do anything more than this either."
The grip more tightened.
""Yes."" Both said like shouting with honor ""You know more than us. We know you are always right.""
"Then go."
As if to dissappear miserably. But before that one asked
"What about you commander?"
"I will tell myself you have no status to ask me questions." He said. Same way and voice but somehow it sounded more heavy.
""Yes!""
And they disappeared.
Now Hel's eyes again at nothingness.
Then he lifted his head and said looking at sky.
"Ĺrakaoa." He said
And the from the sky black particles started to attract each other and then it become black dust, little thicker than before then it looked like flying black swarm of insects more thicker.
And then it dececend in front of Hel.
"Yes Master Hel. Why did you summon me." He said question but it sounded like just for sake of formality.
"You know not to act crazy clown in front of me." Hel said in same way
"Sorry sorry I was just into it." Smile in his tone.
"I told you to go along after all." That shadow like figure continues "Sorry you have to go through it."
Ĺrakaoa flinched little.
"No it was comma— no mission after all." Seriousness in his tone.
Right now the destructed dimension there was black beast Ĺrakaoa and in front of him that giant shadow figure, Hel both in front of each other.
"Then I should be the one to say."
"Let's get into this first. Why did you ended this mission?"
"Because there was no need to continue. We got what we needed."
"?"
Ĺrakaoa knew what was to be needed and from him it definitely wasn't Nate.
"But that kid isn't "the one" how now?" He asked now there was little dizziness like confusion
"Don't worry. After I saw that machine, kid was using in black sacrifice it made everything clear."
"Then that machine is..."
"No."
"Then what is your reason behind this? I can't understand."
Unlike Ler and Ker Ĺrakaoa didn't fear Hel.
Not because Hel might had some regards or he was making Ĺrakaoa do some work but Ĺrakaoa himself didn't fear Hel despite knowing what a obscure of his criteria is made to do.
Despite he had to follow Ler and Ker out of obligation as under worker but he knew like all upper workers Hel didn't do anything to others until done anything wrong. Knowing this upper people still got intimidated by Hel but not Ĺrakaoa.
And because of this Hel had faith in Ĺrakaoa than others. He liked Ĺrakaoa's unafraidness.
"You will understand Ĺrakaoa. As we all you, me, and my uppers all can do is just let time pass. If not then no one will do anything if time froze. And just like that no matter how much black, time tells everything."
"... Yes."
Ĺrakaoa then got into one knee made a hand on it and bowed.
"But there is still one thing." Hel said
"Yes, what is it?" He said in tone of honor
"Stay here until a certain time doesn't match."
"?"
He lit his head up.
"You will understand that when time comes."
"Yes. It's a mission."
Ĺrakaoa didn't had too much frankness with Hel. He did and worked and is loyal but not out of obligation or intimation, but he respected him.
"But you have to go to upper dimension." Hel said
"...as your command. As this is mission."
"And sorry for making you do that act every time." Hel said
"No anything wasn't real so it doesn't matter." Ĺrakaoa said tone wasn't different yet it felt something different.
"Then that's it. All the best." Hel said as he was disappearing
"WAIT!"
It took Hel's focus.
Ĺrakaoa didn't just stand up but looked like it will do something else.
"I don't need your wishes! Nor your faith! I will do what I need to do! I am not doing anything for myself nor you! This is for my people." He said in shout of rage.
"Sorry."
But then, if Ĺrakaoa had mouth he would be gritting teeths. If he had eyes tears would be falling.
And Ĺrakaoa said to the big shadow. As if giving no damn shit. In calm but voice that carried something.
"Don't obligate. Your are humiliating my pride."
Without saying another word or doing anything else. Hel just disappeared.
But after that Ĺrakaoa was crashing his hands and blue blood started to flow.
"Let's do it Nate. Guess we still have some business with you."
# At upper dimension
"I am home." Nate said while the voice was less then murmur, he still said it.
"Is mom and dad are still sleeping? It's good than."
Sigh of relief released from Nate's mouth subconsciously.
But the lot of sound came like parade of leg stomping on ground.
""NATE!!!!"
Nate's Mom and Dad came seeing them Nate wished God give him good parents in next life.
""NATE!!!!!!"
Bot of them hugged Nate so tight that he couldn't breath but that didn't surprise Nate it was something else.
""Nate we were so worried about you. Where have you gone.""
Both his mom and dad seemed like they haven't slept. Dark circles under their eyes.
And they seemed like they were crying but Nate couldn't see their face.
"..."
"Oh nate" still crying
"Sorry" Nate also seemed he will cry.
He tightened his grip on both of their back not letting them go.
"SORRY!!!" Nate also started to cry
time passed and then Nate's mom saw Nate's left hand.
"Nate what is that new thing. You didn't had that before."
"Ah!"
He then covered that with his right hand but next moment realized it was far than late. So he made it looked like he is swiping-out that thing, cleaning it.
Nate : "It's new model. I buyed this watch on my way home at store last afternoon."
Suddenly realizing school had store but it didn't sell this good quality things. Nate reversed his thinking.
"What!!!"
His mother started yelling
"Do you know how much we were worried about you and you say you had wasted some money on this stupid thing! It looks pricey you love wasting money just like your dad don't you! Unless it's not hight price it's not good enough for you is it not!" Mixture of question and shouting.
"Sorry."
"Now you say sorry after spending money! Your son is just like you say something!"
She said looking at as much angry father but not releasing it.
And Nate got quite long lecture for the thing he got in free without wanting it.
But for Nate it was worth that they had forgotten the incident. Or so Nate thought.
"And where were you. Don't tell me you had delinquent friend and hanging out with them!"
Bad start even for asking.
"No!"
"Then where were you we asked all your friends and they didn't know anything! They said you had leave school early even if it was day off where were you."
"That..."
"Tell something!!!"
"Don't worry Nate."
A echoed voice came
And then orange light sprout around hallway.
"Oh nate are you going school it is early for you." His Mom said
"Well it's great." His Dad said
"Huh?"
"What! Now go don't ask about money eat the lunch I give you! And don't even think about eating outside by wasting money."
Nate: "So it won't matter as long as I don't waste money I can eat outside huh."
"Yeah. I am off."
And the sound of door opening and closing came.
Nate rush through a park and it was just morning.
"Ha... ha..."
Taking long breath he calm down first.
"Guess parents will never change." Heart said
Lifting his left hand little close to face he said
"Partly it is your fault."
"Then what do you want from me? Watch was best option and I don't want transfer again I am started to get comfortable here."
"You can feel comfortable in any device? What about that D—"
"OH YEAH! What happened to that D-Bike? I totally forget it!"
"Don't worry it have just teleported with me. It or I will make it come again when needed."
"Fine."
He started chatting with his black and red watch and in center below tha hands of clock there was a red-pink circle and gray belt jointed at up and down covering the area of hand.
It's wasn't normal but cool looking at first sight.
"Looking closely this watch looks expensive no wonder mom started yapping."
"Well it's me after all. And you should be greatful I am gonna make you celebrity of watch at school."
"Maybe I should just wore of this thing." He said less than murmur and yet Heart heard it.
"No you don't no one knows when you will need me, even at school or outside."
"Yeah. Hey what did you do at mom and dad?" He didn't said in panic he at least knew Heart wouldn't do anything dangerous.
"Nothing dangerous or harmful. I just made their few hours restore so they won't remember yesterday's events. And I also make sure they won't budge about my appearance it's different method but don't budge."
"Ahhh they they don't remember yesterday it meas it is my yesterday their's today?"
"Yeah. Good right."
"Aggg"
"What?"
"Yesterday early morning she gave me pocket money. I had chance to take money again but now she will say "if you don't respect money then you won't get it! It was good chance."
"So you ate still mindset on money huh?"
"I don't know maybe it has become a habit."
He said while swiping his other hand on his hair.
"Well then maybe let's go to school first."
"Yeah I might flex on my new watch." He said while his corner of his mouth stretched to end, smiling.
"You are getting into it. Now let's go. High through sky!"
If Heart had hands he would make a pointing sign at sky.
"We are going school. Haha."
