Chapter 61:Mist Realm Activation

The place is so loud, lots of laughs, lots of talk, lots of shouting, and lots of people. We are at the Hangout Place, the spot Elyzer found. We renovated it to make it even better and big enough for all of us, adding makeshift tables and chairs.

"Attention everyone!" Roger shouted, grabbing our attention.

"I have an announcement to make. There's a group that wants to swear allegiance to us, not many of them, but they promise to not let us down. They'll be coming here in a few minutes to be familiar with us and introduce themselves. They came from the Valley Province. Thank you for listening!" Roger announced and went back to where he came from.

"From the Valley Province? Isn't it near Mountain Province? I heard that there's less people who live there, kind of a lonely place you say," Elyzer said.

We waited and finished our lunch.

"Halooooo!" Someone shouted from the entrance.

We looked at the direction where the sound came from. There's a slim guy and some other people behind him.

"Eeeeeyyyyy! Nice to meet you," Roger greeted him.

I counted as they went to the middle to meet Roger: 1...2...3...5...7...9...13...16. There are only 16 of them compared to us, which has 81 of us.

"These new faces will be our new friends. This guy here is named Jasper if you want to know him. The rest, ask them. Thank you again for coming here to let us see your faces," Roger introduced them.

The 15 people scattered around, some of them knew some of our group, and some are finding new friends.

A guy with a medium-sized body went to us.

"Hello, I came here because you guys have a good environment compared to the others. My name is Jasper by the way," the guy introduced himself.

The 5 of us all introduced ourselves. Arthur seems to be an hyperactive guy because he talks and talks, but the 4 of us don't seem to care and followed his subject. But my eyes are locked to Jasper. I stood up and walked towards him, waiting for him to finish his conversation with Roger.

"Hey, uhhhh, can I talk with you for a minute?" I asked him.

"Hmm? Okay," he replied.

"My name is Mateo. I know we just met today, but may I know your ability? I'm doing research about this strange phenomenon. I'll explain later about my ability after this," I asked.

"Hmmm, well I'll tell you this afternoon. There will be a fight between one of my group and a guy from the Johannes City," he replied.

He pointed to a guy who was laughing with the others, a medium-sized guy.

"His name is Alex. I'm going to explain it all during the fight. His ability has one of the most beautiful in our group, but if you like outer space, that would be me," he added.

Wait, what? What does he mean space? I love learning about outer space like the Milky Way, the Eye Nebula, but I still don't know what he means. I just nodded and went back to my friends. Arthur just kept talking and talking, but Jayden and the others just kept up with him. I just followed their conversation as I sat down with them.

 

It is now afternoon, a lot of people came surrounding the Fighter's Ground. I sat beside Jasper.

"Alex has one of the best Mist Realms. Can't wait to see it again!" Jasper said excitingly to me out of nowhere.

"Mist Realm?" I muttered.

"Yeah, Mist Realm. That's what we call our ability depending on the structure or looks of the Mist Realm. His Mist Realm is called Nature Mist Realm, and mine is Outer Space Mist Realm," he replied.

"J-just watch the fight if you still don't understand it," he added.

"3...2...1...Fight!" The referee shouted.

The guy who came from Johannes City, whose name is Matthew, suddenly cut his forearm with a very small knife that can be worn as a necklace. He started swaying his hand, the blood flowing out of his hand started to turn into droplets like balls. Matthew is forming something. Alex just watched him, and I just looked at my phone. Before the fight started, Jasper put a camera on Alex's chest and told all of us to use our phone to connect to the camera with screen cast setting or download an app on our phone.

The audience followed his instructions like good boys and girls and took out their phones and connected to the camera. I wonder why Jasper needs to put on a camera and make us watch something through our phone. Matthew suddenly made a bow and arrow made out of his blood.

Matthew stretched the bow string-like blood and fired. Alex noticed the danger. A sudden shield came out of his wrist and blocked the arrow. The shield looks like it was made out of big roots with moss and leaves around it, making a spiral. The arrow turns into droplets again and goes back to Matthew.

I'm still confused about what Jasper is referring to as beautiful from Alex and the camera on Alex's chest. Matthew started to make an arrow again. Alex started running towards Matthew. A stick formed from Alex's hand, also having mosses around it and leaves. Matthew tried to shoot Alex, but Alex bashed the arrow away. Alex tried to hit Matthew on the head, but Matthew swayed his face backwards, making Alex miss.

Matthew turns his droplets of blood into a sword. Oh, right, new rule: sharp weapons are now okay because we have a healer that heals wounds and even regenerates back your blood, but killing is still prohibited. What does sharp weapons even do in a fight if killing is prohibited? Well, if you have a lot of wounds in your body, of course, we would surrender because we may run out of blood and die. I mean, we are not even immortal.

Matthew swings his sword at Alex, but Alex bashes the sword away. Alex also made a sword made out of stone that looks very sharp, and both started slashing each other. Matthew also made a blood-shield and started bashing each other's attacks.

Both of them have the same ability of generating weapons. They could cheat each other's creation. They fought like Spartans, bashing with their shields and swinging their swords. I looked at Jasper, whose face looked like he was patiently waiting for something.

"Let's go!" Jasper shouted while he grabbed me closer to him.

I looked back at the fighters. Matthew is raising his sword. It looks like Alex parried his attack, using his shield to bash his sword away with all of his strength. He closed his left eye and raised his right palm to his right eye, covering it. He reversed his palm back and opened his right eye using his two fingers, which is the peace sign. He's saying something, but I can't hear it.

"Nature Mist Realm Activation!" Jasper yelled out. That might be what Alex is saying.

Green smoke started to come out of his clothes. The smoke went farther then started to rise up a bit. We couldn't see the two, and the cloud, or maybe mist, moved around, circling the two.

The audience and I started to look at our phones. It was still covered with green mist. The mist started to fade away on the camera. It revealed a beautiful scenery of a meadow, there are trees, deer running, butterflies, and grass. I looked up. Both of them are still covered with green mist. I looked back at my phone. Matthew is present, amazed by the scenery.
