Chapter 293: We're back!

"When we attack them, should we reveal ourselves as ghosts to freak that world out more?" I asked Zach in a whisper

"Well Kenny isn't here anymore, rank wise, I should listen to you" Zach replied

"Doesn't answer my question"

"We'll see, I want you to see the world first"

"Is there a reason why you want to go to the specific world?" Alice asked

"I would say no reason in particular, but that'll be a lie"

"Yeah, we'll tell you later" Zach nodded as we then casted the portal and jumped in

We are all falling from the sky after that, I used wind magic to slow down our fall and we landed on this old crumbled 10 story building.

"It smells horrible" Stella commented as she pinched her nose

We looked down and see these young soldiers my age, my my current physical age anyway, fighting gorgers. They are surrounded, one guy and a girl, both looked injured and tired.

The gorgers...they evolved, their skin are now dark red instead of the normal red. And unlike before, from what Zach described, the winged ones are now no longer considered an abnormal or deviant considering that they are now just as common.

And due to the losing battle, now a lot of people, teenagers regardless of gender or abilities have been put into a mandated enlistment, but still citizens are required to serve less years.

People are now growing restless, the worshippers have infiltrated deep into several branches of government, they got spies everywhere. And Karen's squad members are now all that at least of the general rank, they still hold massive influence.

-Should we help them?- Siege asked

-Yeah, why not-

Me and my bonds then jumped down and I used wind magic to slow our fall, the gorgers can smell us and fly towards us. I surround myself with wind magic and charge against it, I took out my sword and slashed them all apart before we landed.

The soldiers looked relieved to get some help since they were surrounded, I then took out the rifle I have in my spatial storage just to blend in a bit, I charge them up with mana and start blasting all the gorgers on sight.

Alice sniped from atop of the building, and with her incredible mana control, she can split her large blast into several mini bullets and direct them all at once to kill the gorgers in an instant.

Stella flew down and use her draconic wings to create a typhoon blowing all those gorgers away.

"Thank you for the help" the guy soldier said "Are you retired soldiers?"

"If they were, I would know a winged person" the girl pointed as Stella "People with abilities that manifest itself like that are rare"

"Well something like that, retreat over there and do some basic first aid or something"

*****

"Wind manipulation, that's a tier 9 ability. And animals with abilities, even though they aren't rare, it's rare that they can be tamed like yours" the guy soldier rushed up to us once the fighting is done "Woah, the spatial inventory ability. You definitely aren't a soldier, I would have heard about you otherwise"

"Well we live out here, no one would know our abilities since they can't record it." Damon replied

"Yeah, we separated from society a long time ago, we're outcasts. But...we're now ready to rejoin society" Diana added

"Where's the closest town or resting facility?"

"You can follow us, it's the least we could do" the guy soldier answered "We also have someone who can help you register an ID"

"A permanent one or a temporary one?"

"Temporary, since we get people like you all the time, you could just be immigrants. If you want a permanent one, you gotta serve like us"

"Well just give us a map, we're currently trying to find a friend who got separated from us"

He then gave us his, he asked if we would like to follow them, but we refused their request since we want to go on our own way. If we get to a nearby base, there would be cameras that would record us and stuff, I would like to sneak past those into the city and find some people who would forge us illegal IDs so that we can roam around easily.

*****

"Nice people" Stella muttered as the 2 soldiers left. I then went ahead to collect several samples of the gorgers for Rex as souvenirs. We studied our map a bit, we're in California, the state has been mostly taken over by the gorgers since I was gone.

To go in a city undetected would be hard, harder if we want to go to the black market, we can be invisible, but heat detectors. We can fly over but we'll be noticed by the radar and stuff, so the best possible way is illusion magic.

Me, Ace, and Zach will use illusion magic to change our looks and make solid illusion cards, when they scan it, we'll use illusion magic to mask it and make it looks like the cards are legit and we'll also use sound magic to mask the beeping sound.

We would use Stella's help, but her and Alice have never been in this world before, technology like these are hard for her to make. My 2 girlfriends can barely understand, but they had fun exploring at least.

Well it took a while, but we disguised ourselves as soldiers. It took a while to reach the closest city, but it is more secured than any city I've seen.

We could have just stick with the illusion magic thing forever but we rather go around with our original looks.

We got in, and go around. I used dark magic to turn into dark phantom and scout around near criminal bases to find the nearest black market. Siege use presence and did the same. Alice would try to seduce either men or women to get information out.

Well it took a while but we found the route and location. We entered it and it didn't take long to find a guy who can forge fake IDs. Once we got it and sell a few jewelry items in the black market for money, we book the first flight to mine and Zach's town.
