DESERTED ALLEYWAY
Lillian sat behind the dump box fluttering at the slightest of sound she heard. The dark night hid unimaginable terrors and she had just seen one. The faces of the furred beasts tearing at each other replayed in her mind again and again. With so much fear bubbling up, she felt like she was about to go insane. The past few days or weeks had been horrible, the night wasn't better. So there she sat, arms cuddling knees, face hidden 'anybody... anybody.... Please help me!' she muttered in prayer.

This time when Seth opened his eyes, he saw himself on the peak of a mountain and a long golden tower that shot up into the sky, its top unseen. 'what was that?' he thought while standing up from the flowered grass to inspect this tower that had murals carved accross it. He saw drawing he didn't know but one he was sure of. 'dragons'.
Walking around the perimeter while observing he thought to himself, 'what's all this carving and where is the door to the tower?' he looked upwards scanning the straight endless building that shimmered with golden gleam when something clicked.
"a pillar!" he said out loud in shock.
"Not just any pillar, but one of the world holders." Another voice came from beside him.
There he was leaning peacefully on the without a care in the world. His thick slender frame was filled with wild hairs. He wore a silver tiara on his messed up hair and thick beads across his neck. His upper body was left bare, the hair slimed across his body like fur. His tattered orange pants and few rags he tied like belts all the way to his boots. He bounced up spitting out the dandelion stem he had been chewing before pressing his face too close to Seth. "Damn, you're quite weak." he said
'damn, this fucker is real ugly.' Seth thought while looking at his ugly swollen jaw.
He poked different areas of his body while jumping around like a monkey. His auburn hair finely attuned while seth watched him with a frown. 'Damn drunk'
After jumping and playing around for a while, he slowly walked to the pillar with a serious expression. His arm on the pillar, he turned back to look at seth "Watch carefully, kid." his voice sounded malicious.
Seth who felt like he had been harrased like he was some sample was watching him with annoyed eyes. 'Whats wrong with him now?'
"ruyi jingu bang!." a low shout reverberated across the sky.
'did he just say ruyi jingu bang?' but it was right there, the pillar had shrunk to a normal sized golden hoop cudgel. The murals had shrunk, making the staff have a very crude and rough texture.
There was a legend of a warrior who battled the very forces of heaven and stood untop.' The sage above the heavens' he was called. His words 'in heaven and on earth, I alone am the honored one.' were legendary motivation for most heroes.
Legends claim that he laughed at the heavens when he said those words, the scourge who brought down the heaven with his might.
Seth's mouth was so wide, a goose egg could fit in perfectly. He knew who this was, everybody knew. 'is it an illusion?'
The auburn haired figure began swinging his cudgel from left to right causing mini sized whirl winds before swiping across a mountain beside them.
Not just the mountain, but few mountains behind crashed from the force of his swing but he wasn't done.
He raised his hands to the sky with reckless abandon, on his face was no longer that crafty smirk but royal disdain, one who felt even the heavens where below him. His thick fingers closed and the worl was set in turmoil. Even Seth was having troubles standing, he just held onto the ground while watching in amazement.
"Sethnineiel (VI) Midnightsun, this Sage send his regards." his voice cut through the turmoil. It was like the world was weeping, the mountain split, the sky darkened as rumblings rang across the sky. The winds picked up roughly as Seth and the powerful figure floated upwards.
The figure walked towards seth while biting his index finger till he bled before touching Seth. A white light enveloped Seth as he disappeared immediately.
After Seth left, the turmoils stabled as the figure carried the cudgel across his shoulders. "There's that old friend, i guess i should beginning heading west." He asked stupidly while scratching his head. " oh well!" he flew out immediately.

A soft light flashed as Seth landed with a grunt.
[REWARD ACCEPTED]
'What was that?' Seth thought to himself, emotions overflowed as he felt as pathetic as he was before those beasts the first time. 'there are clearly forces in this world I'm yet to comprehend. And here i thought i was gaining grounds.' his minded flashed to Mahahallel and the Monkey king. 'that was really him, his every bit as powerful as the legends, and everthing felt real. Almost too real. But this brings about new questions. God, my head going to blow.'
'Urgghh, back to being blind' but he noticed the tiny tremors that generated with him at the center eere different, he remembered where he had seen a sight like this one was when he first unlocked his eye physiques
He felt like he saw through elements, something like heat vision and wind flow. His vision was also filled with blood red tremors, his view had colors too. Taking his time to look at his interface for anything strange, he noticed pop-up boxes filling his screen.

'What!' Seth had already moving but his new field of vision to the test.
'why would the system set such brutal punishment just for saving someone, at least give me a map or something.' he thought in anger.
He ran forward when something caught his attention, he saw something move quickly a bit outside his field. He stopped immediately to inspect but the timer made him start running again.
[TIMER: 00:38:12]
Running through the dark alley, he was reminded of when he tried to flee from the wolves and the way they toyed with him like some prey.
In this world where power determined everything, he had the potential but he was weak.
' doesn't matter though, cause I'll survive. The wolves, mahahallel, Sampson and monkey king. I'll survive them all.' he made a quiet vow as he flipped past building, his speed impressive.
"Aaarghhh" he heard a horrifying scream giving him his new location as he tapered.
' what made you shout so fearfully? ' he thought to himself while running, his heart beating erratically.
