White Online

City of Priesthood, High Temple.

Half an hour had passed since the Realm Portal to Autumn Realm appeared in the High Temple's yard. At first, the players were euphoric and hurried inside the portal.

The players continued swarming toward the portals while chatting.

"It must have been Lord Wraith who teleported it here, right?"

"Of course. Who else?"

"Thanks to him, we don't have to wait another month to enter Autumn Realm!"

"Hmm, look at that." A player pointed at the ordinary Realm Portal. Several tanned men and women exited one of the portals and turned towards Autumn Realm Portal.

"What about them?"

"They aren't from Priesthood." The player chuckled, "It seems that there are impatient players. They traveled long distances to come here to enter Autumn Realm from here."

"But why?"

"Well, you forgot that this is the only Autumn Realm available for the players." The player grinned and patted the shoulder of his friend, "I am from South Continent, and I have heard a lot of negative comments about South players, but no one dares to utter a sound anymore."

"Why is that?"

"Because we have a player that rivals the Lords, Ladies, Kings, and Queens—Wraith!"

From the long stairway, a beautiful black-haired woman appeared wearing a summer blouse and a cute skirt that reached her knees.

Her skin's color was like snow, extremely delicate, and her hair flowed like calm rivers.

The players who saw her felt their hearts stop. It was like the sun's light lost its glamor next to her.

"So many people…" Luna thought aloud with a slightly nervous tone. She walked past the dumbstruck players and joined the line that led to the Autumn Realm Portal.

"H-Hey, isn't that?"

"Y-Yes, Bookstore Goddess…"

"Lord Wraith's famous girlfriend…"

"I am so jealous of him, shit…"

The players whispered among their friends while slowly moving towards the portals. The line seemed endless as it circled the High Temple.

''Excuse me, miss Luna.'' Luna flinched after someone suddenly talked to her. She turned slightly to the left and saw a tanned man approaching her.

"E-Eh, yes?" Luna held the hem of her blouse and asked, "What is it?"

"Ahem." Mister X cleared his throat and calmed down his beating heartbeat. He had learned to control his emotions perfectly, but even he had to agree that she was indeed quite beautiful.

"I am from Sword of Myth. Can we have a quick chat?"

"Eh?" Luna's eyes widened out of surprise, 'Sword of Myth? What do they want from me?'

Mister X walked next to her and moved at the same pace as the line, "Sword of Myth is an organization that is purely dream-based."

"Dream?" Luna tilted her head in confusion.

"Yes, the creator of Sword of Myth, our General, created this organization because of a dream.

"His dream is World Peace, and our General is certain that the Chain Breakers are key to achieving that."

'World peace…' Luna frowned and asked, "Why are you telling me this?"

Mister X calmly smiled and continued, "The reason we capture evil Chain Breakers is because we believe we can treat them and steer them to the right path."

"Sword of Myth is treating them in Tartarus?" Luna made a guess.

"Hehe, correct." Mister X nodded with approval, "It's not a prison. Instead Psychiatric Hospital."

"O-Oh."

"Chain Breakers are a great asset to make the world a better place." Mister X turned to look at Luna's beautiful face and continued, "Even if there are evil ones, they are still valuable."

"Your boyfriend, Isaac, is one of three people we must get on our side."

"I-Isaac?" Luna flinched after Mister X mentioned Isaac's name. Almost immediately, her eyes turned frosty, 'Hmm…'

"There are three people called the Three Myths, and they would be our three greatest assets to achieve World Peace." Mister X didn't notice her cold look and continued, "Isaac is one of them, and I think he would listen to you.

"If you would convince him to join, we would achieve great things together. At this rate, more Chain Breakers would appear, and we don't have the manpower to keep everyone safe.

"Having Isaac on our side would be immensely important. So, please talk to him, but for now, I gotta go. It was nice talking to you." Mister X slipped the hood back on and left the line. Soon, he disappeared into the crowd.

Luna's cold face didn't disappear, 'I have bad feelings about them… World Peace? Sounds like a good excuse to harm people.'

Her tightly clenched fists loosened, and she noticed that there were only several players left before her turn to enter the Portal.

'If they think they can manipulate my love…' Luna hid her face, and her crystal blue eyes had a tinge of darkness. She then noticed that it was her turn to enter the Portal. Without further ado, she stepped into the portal and disappeared from the Spring Realm.

…

Autumn Realm, Town of Leaf.

Whoosh!

A cold wind drifted across the town.

The portal shone brightly as players continued appearing in the town. The town's population rose by double after the appearance of the players.

Then, the portal again shone, and Luna appeared with her beautiful face having a sweet smile. Her crystal blue eyes had their previous shine, and her face had its previous sweetness.

She saw the crowded street. The players asked the New-Gen Humans (NPC) about where they were. Their way of talking was more respectful than a year ago because they understood that they were real people.

Then, she heard chatters of nearby players.

"I wonder if Lord Wraith is in this town…"

"Probably not. I just heard from one of the New-Gen Humans that there are tens of thousands of towns, while only one City!"

"One City?!"

"Yeah, but anyway, the chance of Lord Wraith getting sent into this Town is incredibly small."

"Yeah… you are right, damn, I just want his autograph."

Luna's smile grew as she heard the whispers, 'Alright, Isaac told me that he was in the City of Fall… That must be the only City in Autumn Realm. I only have to find a way to go there!'
