Chapter 22 - outside the bubble

"Welcome back, you piece of shit. I see that you made it to LA and are now looking for your soul forged weapon."

Rayliegh opened his eyes to see Seb looking at him.

"It's good to see you, too."

Rayleigh wasn't too pleased to be back here with Seb, and he still hated how eerie the place he is feels.

"I forgot to ask, who or what are you? You said that this void is not from my world. What did you mean by that, and what do you want with me?"

"You see, Rayliegh, when someone talks about other worlds, they usually talk about something completely different from their own, but what they should say is a different universe. A different universe still resides in the same dimensional bubble to their own. And going back to the different world, that refers to a different reality, where, for example, magic is a universally known art. Any way to answer your question on who I am? I am someone who has learnt how to survive outside dimensional bubbles. And for what I want from you, let's just say we have something in common, a skill if you would, and I am trying to make sure it doesn't destroy you."

Rayliegh still wasn't sure if he should trust Seb, but he seemed open to most discussions.

"So what is this 'skill' called, and what do you mean it could destroy me?"

"I can't tell you about it yet, just get stronger and then I will help you awaken it, and one more thing, don't tell Uldess or Alex about our conversations, you got it."

Rayliegh didn't know why Seb didn't want Uldess or Alex to know about him.

"Ok, I won't tell them."

"Good, now it might be a while till we speak again, so don't get yourself killed."

And with that, Rayliegh started to return to his body.
