Chapter 35: Dream City 2

Morana's POV

"Fu*k."

Curse left Zoel's lips as the voice cut off. Even though I knew what was going on that didn't mean everyone did, so his voice drew everyone's attention.

"Do you know anything?" Finally one girl asked. When I used my sight on her I saw light-pink mana particles she gave off a strange feeling like you were looking at something fake.

"I have only heard rumors." Said my brother.

"What do you know?" Another man asked.

"There are rumors about Dream city that it used to be a special prison created by the Divine realm."

"A prison?" Asked the same man.

"Hmm. Rumors say that the Divine realm created Dream city as a separate dimension to imprison things they couldn't just kill.

At first it was only a few but later they started sending anyone they didn't like into the prison. Mana here is contaminated and anyone that stays here longer than they should will turn into a prisoner unable to leave this dimension."

"Okay but what about these games and why we are here?" Asked another girl.

"When divine beings created this place thought they could control everything, but they were wrong. Instead of fighting each other all these prisoners united and even thought they were unable to break out of prison they did manage to still escape."

"What do you mean?"

"They closed the doors to the dimension to the Divine beings and managed to open the entrance in lower, middle and higher realm and even though they can't leave the dimension they still set up the traps just like they did with us in order to lure people in."

"Okay but what do they need us for, and what are all these games about?" Asked the same girl with pink mana.

"They absorb our life energy and turn it into their own power in order to break out of here. I don't know much about the games though." After his words some people were still skeptical.

"How do you know so much? I have never heard of these rumors." Said one guy with an annoying high pitch voice and gooey brown mana particles that felt very disgusting.

"Because he's not from the lower realm." Said another guy. My brother seems to have recognized him.

"You are here too?" He asked.

"It's been a while Zoel."

"Same to you Ezra."

'So, my big brother's name is Zoel. Jolly since he is in the lower realm can you do the investigation?'

[I'm sorry master but you still can't do that. Even if he is here he is still someone of a higher realm.]

'But so am I.'

[But not your powers.]

'Okay we will do the investigation later. Let me know when it's possible.'

[Yes master.]

"What are you doing here?" Asked the girl who was my brother's companion.

"Sophia, since you are here why can't I?" Asked Ezra.

"Stop beating around the bush and speak already?" Asked Sophia.

To tell the truth I was already getting annoyed with their bickering and I was not the only one.

"Can you two lovebirds take it somewhere else we are not really in the situation to deal with your bickering." Finally Samael snapped at them drawing everyone's attention to us. The moment my brother and his companions looked at us I could feel the tension rising up as their gazes became intensely fixed on me.

I knew what they were thinking about but I also heard my biological mother's words before entering the secret realm and knew they would not make the move yet.

"So what are we going to do now?" Asked another man with a low, very nice voice. Seems like he should be a good singer. 

He had a very nice light blue mana particles around him and gave off a gentle feel, maybe too gentle.

"We need to start doing games in order to get out of here." Said Zoel.

"How do we get out of this room? It's completely white with no doors at all. How do we start the game?" Asked the same man.

With his questions silence filled the room as no one knew the answer and for the first time I decided to speak.

"Who said we are already not in the game?" I asked, drawing everyone's attention to me once again.

And just as my word ended, we heard the same voice from before.

"Congrats, you have started the first game. The reward for the game is the map of your district."

With these words my statement was proved but now everyone had a new question: what kind of game they were playing and what were they supposed to do?

Just as everyone was wondering about this voice once again sounded.

"Do you want a hint?"

I felt people moving around looking at each other, seeming to ask for others' opinions. Finally, I heard one of us speak.

"Yes."

"Find the rat. Time limit 2 hours."

Some of the people were still confused when I heard Ezra's voice.

"Seems like not everybody is who they say they are." His word brought a revelation to everyone.

"Okay but how do we find out which one is the rat?" Asked the guy with orange mana that gave off a violent feeling.

"Who knows, any one of you can be a rat."

"So, can you."

"So can anyone."

"So how are we planning to find out who's the rat?"

"For the start we can state our names and little bit about ourselves after all we are in the same team."

Since no one had a better idea they all started introducing themselves but honestly I couldn't care less and all this talk was becoming annoying, so I decided to move.

Before any of them could react I already pierced the heart of the girl with pink mana as her blood sprayed on my face and the next second I moved to the guy with a disgusting gooey feeling brown mana.
