2 Years

On the giant planet nearly a month has been passed density of energy particles has reached which has surpassed ever recorded state in the whole history of that planet. Elves who suddenly recovered from their depleting vitality were very happy and all the cities of elves celebrated and their celebration increased when every elves city received the news that 'the seed of world tree "Yggdrasill" which was dormant from at least 10 thousand years suddenly sprouted and growing at very impressive rate in their capital city'.

But this celebration soon replaced with terror when many of the small city were attacked by very strong monsters and nearly every city received reports from their scouts that beasts from the forest are getting very powerful and many new beast with strange capabilities were also seen. Soon after receiving this news capital city of elves passed orders for all the elven cities to evacuate immediately and gather at the capital city. In all of these events nearly three months passed.

In one of the three largest cities named Silverwood city because of the unique tree found in the nearby forest which has silver leaves. When this city was in the process of preparation of mass migration towards capital city nearly 10 elves appeared on the forest gate of the city all of them were seriously injured. When the gatekeeper saw them he hurriedly opened the gate and few solders came to them and carried them inside then immediately closing the gate.

These elves were solders who went to the cave in order to invite the beastmen to city. When solders on the gate saw these elves they couldn't help but feel surprised at these solders condition as these solders were considered elites in the city, for them to be reduced to this state they didn't understand what battle they have to go through.

When one of the injured solders confirmed that they were inside he said "hurry inform the city lord we have very important information."

When leader of gate solders heard this he replied "when we saw you we already sent someone to inform city lord, he might have heard news by now."

When injured solder heard this he shied in relief then he suddenly had a serious expression on his face and said to guard leader "we need to reinforce the gate and wall on the forest side there might be a beast attack within two days "when he said this he could help but remember what he had went through in past three months, how many time he nearly died himself. But he came to himself we he heard guard leader question.

"We already reinforced the wall and gate as much we could, we can easily survive by the time city evacuate from reinforcements "

Solder who was now being tended by the healer was surprised now "evacuation to where and from which way"

Guard replied to him "yes we are evacuating to capital city, world tree has been reborn there, you will know when city lord will talk to you" while he was taking to him he noticed solder was viewing healer strangely thus he asked "what happened?"

Solder then looked at him and asked him "was that healer who just healed me is best healer the city?"

Guard was first surprised at the question then had a understanding look and replied " what you saw was just a normal healer of wall guards, after sudden increase of mana our abilities got boosted compared to before, but not as much as beasts that's why his healing was that powerful."

While both of them were talking city lord arrived at wall barracks after knowing where injured solders were in infirmary he directly came at that place and just before his arrival at the infirmary guard at the gate of infirmary announced "lord has arrived" inside all the injured solders and guard leader stood up when city lord entered in the room.

City lord look like someone in 20es but he was nearly 140 years, he looked young because of elves natural long life and he was a senior magister as well.

Just after city lord reached inside he asked "squad four leaves where is your leader?"

When the solder who was taking to guard leader just now answered "reporting to the lord, our captain sacrificed himself to make way for us to reach the city our another 10 solders also died in that seize of beasts"

When city lord heard that captain has sacrificed himself to save these solders he was not surprised because when he received reports of beasts of forest getting powerful he had already accepted the fact that maybe none of these solders will return, what made him surmised was that beasts were able to form seize and coordinate to surround these solders. Thus he asked "what beast were those and what were their numbers?" after all he had to get to know beasts overall ability to make plans according to them.

Solder also knew importance of this information thus he replied "those were beast similar to silver eyed hornet but they had golden body instead of black and nearly three times the size of silver eyed hornet and they were at least 200 in numbers"

When he heard this he was secured that these were just similar to silver eyed hornet he had many ways to deal with them. He then remember that these solders claimed that they had very important information thus he asked "what is that information that you claimed that it is very important for me to know?"

Solder when heard this question he looked at his comrades then replied "lord we have information regarding the cause of this sudden increase of mana."

City lord who was surprised at solder's behaviour and was expecting to hear that some large and powerful beast was nearby was startled by this claim almost thought he heard wrong and asked "can you repeat what you just said?"

While on earth when the members of "Gate" research team heard that then they were happy that finally after hard work and mental exhaustion for last 5 years they will spend some quite time with their family but soon started to feel uncomfortable from their restricted movement and almost felt like they were kept in open jail.

But their chief whose name was George along with his wife who name was Sophie who was also deputy chief researcher were immersed into research about that ring other than taking care of their son Sam. In fact many of their conclusions were same as those of researcher who examined all the material from explosion that that ring was a piece of normal iron. But George knew it was not possible because he had checked every equipment himself none of them had component which was similar to this ring and when he tried to replay that test in simulation it went perfectly with no problem in fact when he tried to pass object with same reading of the head other than some energy fluctuation everything went normal then only variable remained was this "Ring".

When he was in his thoughts when he heard Sophie "George I just checked the energy reading of the ring it has 0.01%similar energy reading when compared to tha "Head."

When George heard he asked "didn't we just checked energy reading two weeks ago it has no abnormal energy reading, did you make some mistake."

Sophie replied with slight angry expression "then check yourself, if you don't believe me." Then went out of that small laboratory they were inside.

George did the same without noticing his wife expression. When he saw energy reading he was enlightened by similar energy reading and muttered to himself "of course isn't this energy only variable cause in this and what is this energy."

While he was busy in his experiments government was busy in theirs and first to bring results was report from that "Head" it took three months to get complete result of its structure and they also got the same result that there was a very special unidentified energy particle in that head and it was the cause of this special genetic makeup and a small report also included that that energy particle destroyed all electric equipment of their lab. Which official didn't took it seriously.

But this discovery pushed officials into pouring more resource and manpower in reconstruction of the gate. This continued for year within this time period earth internally has changed very much but externally it showed its first signs by the end of second year which coincidentally was on the same day of second trial of gate.
