[Chapter 29]

[White Hot Room]

[White Hot Room]

Zoey Romanov and The Last Knight are currently in the White hot room.

TLK says

"This place seems to have the Concepts of time and space."

"How could this exactly be?"

Zoey says

"It's an Anomaly."

"You'd think a place like this would at least have CZ-1."

"But it's weird because both of us aren't bound by the limitations of dimensions."

"But yet I can't help but feel like we can't leave this place."

"Where the hell are we?"

TLK responds with

"I don't exactly know but we must make haste to fight a way out."

"We must find answers!"

Zoey agreed with this and continued walking on.

[Later…]

Zoey Romanov and TLK then make it to a house in the middle of the White Hot Room.

It's a small house for 1 person to live in.

Zoey says

"You think somebody is here?"

TLK says

"I hope so."

"Keep your guard up."

Zoey says

"Alright."

"Let's go in."

They then walk forward as they prepare to enter the house.

As soon as they get near the house they are met by an Elf Boy.

His name is Fletcher.

Fletcher welcomes them to the section of the White Hot Room he calls home.

Fletcher says

"Welcome Travelers!"

"How do you do?"

"This is the White hot room!"

Zoey says

"What exactly is this place?"

Fletcher says

"This is a place where many places exist."

"Possible and impossible worlds rather."

"Let me explain."

"Unlike the Many Worlds Interpretation, This place has to deal with something else entirely."

"Goddess Nora made this Place when she was still working for God."

" Possible and Impossible worlds which exist above my domain."

"Each world is a place where a different possible or impossible thing can happen."

"Possible things such as a Multiverse where God beat Rei Aki-ma or a Multiverse where Veldona is God."

"However there exists impossible worlds such as a world where Rei Aki-ma is {•} or a world where Love energy doesn't exist."

"That's all I know."

"I've been living here for ages now."

Zoey then says

"So time does pass in this place."

Fletcher responds with

"Here, but not where the possible worlds are located."

"However, you should watch out as there could be hostiles nearby."

"My domain is considered a safe zone away from this kind of stuff."

"Go on now."

Zoey says

"You're going with us."

Fletcher says

"But why?"

Zoey responds with

"We don't know the place and we don't wanna get lost."

Fletcher says

"Alright, fine."

Zoey then says

"Good."

"Let's head out."

The trio then begins to go deeper into the White Hot Room.

[Later…]

[Back on the planet.]

[Outside….]

We see Astrolaris attempting to catch some Mafia.

Stacia follows her and they are on the chase for some Mafia.

Stacia says

"How much longer do we have to run!"

Astrolaris says

"Until they start calling back up!"

"We must get as much information as we can!"

"Now after them!"

They then go after the mafia.

[Later….]

Astrolaris and Stacia make it to another hideout.

Astrolaris uses her max-level detection skill to find the mafia.

She located them all and she tells Stacia to follow her to the location of the mafia.

Astrolaris thinks about turning back into a dragon to scare them off but she decides it's not worth it.

Stacia asks Astrolaris

"What will we do once we get in there?"

Astrolaris says

"We will find them and kill them."

"We cannot let them get away with this."

[Later…]

Here lies the concealed headquarters of the Mafia. The notorious mafia hideout is tucked away beneath the bustling streets of the city, its entrance hidden in the cellar of an inconspicuous tavern, The Velvet Tap.

The tavern itself is a rickety, dimly lit establishment, frequented by shady characters and overlooked by the city's law enforcement.

The cellar door, behind the bar and guarded by a hulking, scar-faced bouncer, leads down a narrow, spiraling staircase.

At the bottom, a heavy iron door, marked with a thorny rose insignia, bars the way.

The door opens only to those who utter the correct passphrase, a rotating set of words known only to mafia members.

Beyond the iron door, the air grows cooler and the passageways more elaborate.

The hideout sprawls in a network of underground tunnels and chambers, each one meticulously carved from the bedrock and supported by ancient, sturdy beams. The walls are lined with torches, casting flickering shadows that dance across the stone.

[Later…]

Astrolaris, the blue dragon girl with iridescent scales and childlike features, moved silently through the labyrinthine tunnels of Vantasia's underbelly.

Her companion, Stacia, a stern and disciplined military princess clad in sleek, dark armor, followed closely, her eyes scanning every shadow.

The duo had gained entry to The Velvet Tap under the guise of weary travelers.

Astrolaris had used her charm to distract the bartender while Stacia slipped past the bouncer, her movements swift and precise.

Now, they found themselves at the bottom of the spiral staircase, facing the iron door marked with the thorny rose insignia.

Astrolaris pressed her ear against the cold metal.

Astrolaris says quietly

"I hear voices."

Her dragon senses far keener than any human's.

Astrolaris says

"They're changing the passphrase."

Stacia says

"We can't afford to wait. We need a way in."

Astrolaris closed her eyes, her mind calm.

She had studied the arcane arts and knew a few tricks.

Drawing a deep breath, she began to chant softly, her hands tracing intricate patterns in the air.

The iron door shimmered for a moment before swinging open silently.

Stacia nodded in approval, her respect for Astrolaris's abilities evident.

They entered a narrow passageway, the flickering torchlight casting long shadows.

The air was cool, almost damp, and the walls echoed with distant sounds—voices, clinking metal, footsteps.

Astrolaris led the way, her small frame allowing her to move quickly and quietly.

They passed several branching tunnels before reaching the main hall.

[Later…]

Stacia and Astrolaris make it to a padded room with a guy sitting in there.

He introduces himself as a brute.

He breaks off the chains that bind him to the ground.

He then leaps forward at the pair.

Astrolaris simply punches him once and he goes down without a Fight.

Astrolaris says

"Let's go."

[Later…]

Henryzx900 is currently sitting inside of floor 26, alone as he is easily able to clear the last 25 floors with nothing but his speed.

Henryzx900: I need to continue.

Henryzx900: I spent some money and bought some items as my watch is outside.

Henryzx900: I should walk on.

Henryzx900 walks on as several demons and monsters attempt to kill him.

He just simply stares at them as they all wither away.

Henryzx900 finds this extremely boring as the beings on this planet aren't nearly as strong as the beings on Earth.

Henryzx900 then uses his suppressed ice Regalia to dig downwards into the ground to skip a couple of floors

[Later….]

Henryzx900 is now on Floor 28 and he makes sure to collect all the items and gold he can.

He then finds clean fresh water.

He picks up his large container and puts the water in it.

He then slowly walks around the dungeon floor as he could clear it at any time so there's no rush for him to clear it.

While walking he encounters Sasha "Natalia" Romanov.

Sasha introduces herself.

Henryzx900: Did you just say Second Romanov?

Henryzx900: Zoey has a sister?

Sasha says

"What! Zoey! You know her!"

Henryzx900: Our relationship is deeper than that but yes I "know" her.

Sasha says

"She's… alive…"

"Do you know where she is?"

Henryzx900: Faraday knows.

Henryzx900: O' Great Narrator, will you tell us where she is?

Faraday: White Hot room!

Henryzx900: In the White hot room.

Henryzx900: Wherever that place is.

Faraday: it is a place beyond N-E.

Faraday: it was unknown to us before.

Sasha says

"Well, at least she's alive."

"Thank Nora."

Henryzx900: Madrina's mom is pretty popular it seems.

Sasha says

"Yes! Nora is our God! She is the true Goddess of Creation! Our Heavenly Mother."

Henryzx900: I'm guessing your Jesus is Madrina?

Sasha

"Correct! The Daughter of God!"

"All Power!"

Henryzx900: I'm gonna let Madrina know that you guys are worshiping her.

Henryzx900: Anyways what the hell are you doing here?

Sasha says

"Looking for a universe fragment."

"I heard we could find o

ne here."

"By here I mean this planet where the Mafia is located."

Henryzx900: Interesting, So are you on our side?

Sasha responds with

"Yes! I shall support whatever side my sister is on."

'"I am a new woman after all."

Henryzx900 thinks to himself

"A new woman? Who is she?"
