Chapter 116 - Awakening in the Unknown

"Hey" a voice echoed around as Denwen slowly came to. His whole body felt weak and drain as though he had just finished one of Vorden's training his mind vague about anything.

"Hey, human get your ass up" the voice came through once more with a constant flapping sound as though birds were around him.

He swatted his hands but the flapping sounds didn't stop rather it became worse.

"Hey, human don't wave around like a brainless chicken" the voice came again.

"What the hell is this annoying voice…" he said as he opened his eyes to see a flying silver sphere hovering right above his face, what was even more terrifying was that it was a massive eye.

"ARRRGGGGGHHHH" he screamed shuffling all the way to a wall, the blanket covering him coming off leaving him in just his white undies.

"You hairless monkey, do you want to scorch my eye. How do you think I would survive" the eye quickly flew high using its wings to wrap around itself becoming smooth.

"You have no right to insult me when I have no frickin idea what disaster you are. How can you even talk" he said grabbing the ball as it struggled to leave his grip all to no avail.

"Unhand me hairless unevolved monkey, you have no idea what I am capable of" the ball said.

"Oh, now I am curious of what you are capable of, unless you want me to put you inside my underpant, I can assure you, it is warm and cozy in there" Denwen said with a very evil grin.

"No, please, anything but that. Arrrghhhh" it screamed as it pulled, the force dragging both of them into the walls, but he didn't let go until the eye slowly gave up. It's wings becoming weak, eyes teary as though it was regretting it's life choices

"Ah, what has become of my life" it began its monologue "Of every human in the world, every beast every disaster, I just had to land the most idiotic one who can't recognize my greatness as a host…" it was about to continue when Denwen interrupted.

"Oy, stop your blabbering no one cares" he said but the eye wanted to continue as the grip on it increased.

"Ouch ouch, I will make you pay I swear" it screamed for help.

"Yeah, like I'd to see you try" he said waving his hands "I don't care about your greatness or any thing or that sort, you mentioned something about landing me as your host" he said with a ruthless glare.

"I am not saying anything till you unhand me…arrrggghh" Denwen not letting it speak further as he squeezed harder as parts of the eye began emerging from the fingers.

"I'm not going to let a parasitic disaster have a place in my body, do you understand me?" he said coldly 

"Wait, wait, if I die you die as well" it screamed in pain and just as he said Denwen dropped to the ground holding his dantian as though he felt all the pressure on his core.

The eye quickly flew out panting like a dog as Denwen sprawled about in pain.

"What did you to me" Denwen looked at it furiously causing the eye to shiver as it began to answer hurriedly not sure if this human would become unstable again to threaten him:

"I am a construct of evolution provided to those who have the greatest potential in the universe in order to protect the universe from !@!@#!!" the statements glitched like back then in the double dungeon.

"Wait come again, to prevent the universe from what" Denwen asked as the eye shook, waving it wings.

"If I wasn't able to say it once, only means one thing, this planet, Velos is still bound by universal laws preventing some kind of information from being released. Each information about certain subjects concerning certain events, entities and beings would only make the planet more vulnerable and trust me, you do not want certain being turning their attention to this home of yours at least not until you are strong enough to defend yourself" it said dropping a whole lot of information causing Denwen to begin to think.

"Wait if you are a construct of evolution, are there other constructs out there with other people" he asked.

"Yeah, but that is a subject for another day, I'm tired" it said as it shrunk turning into a streak of light into his head.

"Hey, where did you go" Denwen asked looking around very confused as the voice responded from his head:

"Hey human, stop getting paranoid, I am in your head. Flying around makes me very tired I would rather reside here. Oh one more thing, I don't think you've actually taken a proper look at your location" it said as it went silent.

Hearing this Denwen began to look around noticing the strange nature of the walls around, it was made of luminous crystals that gave off light, closed by a body of thick liquid flowed calmly of which he recognized to be an essence vein usually present in high ranked dungeons. 

Close by he noticed a set clothes spread out to dry, feeling a sense of familiarity he walked towards the clothes, picking up the shirt and looking at it, it resembled a uniform. Slowly touching it his hand came across the emblem of the Crimson Academy, his mind opened up as though his foggy memory cleared up instantly.

All the images of the horror he faced in the martial bunny dungeon rushed in as he held his head:

"Roy, Nicole, Quinn, Ezekiel…" he called out the names of each of his classmates one by one. He remembered, Varek and Racheal who were outside, he felt at loss, the feeling of weakness and pain overwhelming him as the eye rematerialized back out:

"Negative thoughts and emotions really makes in there uncomfortable as hell" it said looking at Denwen with a solemn expression.

"Listen boy, the strongest out there have faced worse out there, yes you lost a few friends, but can it compare to what happened all those years ago. Experiences help shape and sharpen a person to become the best versions of themselves." It spoke as Denwen slowly listened.

"Things are not going to be different anymore, with me here, you shall evolve to stand at the peak of your species and even above that" it said grandly causing Denwen to chuckle.

"Wait do you think I am joking" it said flapping it's wings furiously.

"You sure do have a loud mouth and that's a lot coming from the fact that you don't have a mouth" he said as he began to dress up.

The duo continued their light conversations as they began walking, they began seeing the bodies of various dead crystal looking disasters.

"These are Crystalvores" the eye said making a tour around the bodies scanning them, Denwen slowly kept on going till he reached the end of the pathway were he saw a lot of Crystalvores piled up and a black haired broad chested man with a straw hat on his back sat on top eating through their tough exoskeleton.

It was weird to see a person eating a disaster, and weirder seeing one do so nonchalantly in a dungeon.

"Ah you're up" the man looked up with a bright smile.
