New York City,

Times Square,

A huge rift had opened in the sky. Above the towering buildings, the spatial rift formed a devastatingly beautiful scene. On the roof of a skyscraper, the dean looked at the rift.

His eyes were dark as a gloomy aura surrounded his body. The scepter in his hand trembled as the cloak wrapped around his body fluttered in the air.

From afar, the dean looked like the God of Death who had come down to the mundane world and was ready to bring death and destruction everywhere.

"Swoosh," The wind flew by as the dean turned around and looked at the newcomers who just arrived.

"What did you find?" Asked the dean.

"The whole city is in chaos. Although evacuation is going on, the fact that these rifts opened up unexpectedly has pressured us a lot. The senior students and majority of the staff from the academy are fighting alongside the soldiers in evacuating the citizens and defending against the invading creatures," Amanda gave the whole report. f𝒓𝗲𝗲𝒘𝑒𝚋noѵ𝒆𝗹.co𝗺

Right now, alongside Amanda were Old Man Abraham, Inferno, Silent Sword, and a couple more friends that the dean fully trusted.

"What about the invading creatures," rubbing his chin, the dean asked.

"Till now, we have identified four different types of creatures. The academy is under attack by trolls while goblins and orcs are making havoc in the whole city. Also, we have located various types of merfolk around the periphery of the coastal line," Old Man Abraham spoke solemnly. Knowing the statistics, he knew how bad the situation was.

Also, the strange natural phenomenon had just started and the communications were also getting harder as the electrical appliances had started to malfunction.

After that, followed more reports as the dean listened to them all silently. He kept his head down and continued to think as various plans formed in his mind.

"Amanda, you come with me. Abraham; you and Inferno help the city. Also, Silent Sword; you should take the rest and monitor the coastal line but whatever happens, don't intervene. The coastal line is to be left as it is," ordered the dean.

"Understood," Silent Sword replied first as he took off. Turning into a thin arc, his figure streaked through the air as he headed for the shore while the rest followed behind him.

Then, it was Inferno and Abraham whose figures flashed as they dived down into the city.

"Boooomm!!" Right after they did, explosions followed as they had already started dealing with the monsters down below.

Then, turning to Amanda; the dean sighed and sat down on the roof. Looking at him all worried, Amanda felt her heartache as it was very rare for her to see the dean in such condition and worry. 𝘧𝗿ee𝚠𝙚𝙗𝑛o𝚟𝐞l.𝐜૦𝗺

"Why are you so tense?" sitting down besides him, she held his chin. Turning his face to face hers, she looked into the dean's eyes and asked.

"I am worried," The dean answered. His pupils were trembling as worry shone all over his face.

"Don't be," Pulling him closer in her embrace, she hugged him close and comforted the dean.

"Sob…Sob…" The dean started to sob! If someone else looked at the dean right now, they would be shocked to find one of the strongest people on Earth crying in a woman's embrace.

Even though Amanda felt shocked, she didn't stop him. She just pulled him closer and placed her head against his.

"Don't worry, everything will be alright. I believe in you, I believe that you will be able to tackle everything and come out of it victoriously as you always do," She spoke in his ear. Her soothing voice calmed down the dean's distress and the dean stopped sobbing.

Raising his head, the dean looked into her eyes and spoke, "I love you, Amanda. I don't know what I would have done without you,"

"I am always there for you," said Amanda as she looked back at him tenderly. Her eyes shone with love as she leaned forward and kissed him.

The dean kissed her back as both lovers shared an intimate moment filled with love that came down their emotions as serenity returned to their minds.

Breaking off from the kiss, the dean wiped his eyes and stood up. Then, looking up at the huge rift in the sky, the dean spoke,

"Let's head over there and see what hides behind it," Saying that, his cloak fluttered. Raising the scythe in the air, a glint shone on its blade as the wind rustled.

"Let us," Came Amanda and held the dean's hand. Then, looking up; she borrowed the power from nature as she cast her spell,

[Floating Cloud],

It allowed her to call upon the clouds and increase their densities while maintaining their weight at the same time. This way, not only could she step on the cloud but also travel at ultra-high speeds at the same time.

The cloud came forward as the dean and Amanda stepped over it. Standing on the fluffy could, the dean lightly tapped his scythe on the cloud's surface as a dark aura pulsed over it. Within seconds, a barrier was formed as the dean turned to Amanda and nodded.

Amanda then commanded the cloud to head forward towards the huge rift in the sky as great spatial fissures collided against the cloud.

However, as they did; the strange barrier that the dean had cast was able to protect the cloud from the spatial fissures.

"There are a lot of spatial fluctuations in the sky. Thankfully, your ability can protect us," Amanda sighed.

While the two neared the huge spatial rift in the sky, Silent Sword and the rest appeared on the shore.

Hiding behind a huge rock, Silent sword saw the merfolk perimeter around the shore as they set up sentries and various search towers were set up as well.

"They seem to be preparing for something," A person behind Silent Sword spoke.

"Shhh…Don't speak loudly. Be careful, the merfolk might hear us. You know we are not to interfere," Said Silent Sword. Then, scratching his beard, the swordsman scanned the whole scene and spoke,

"They seem to be protecting the shore, but from what?" He questioned out loud and continued to observe the shore.

Meanwhile,

Deep under the sea. A huge temple bustled with activity as various merfolk traveled in and out of the temple. In their hands were strange scepters made of coral reefs while small rubies shone on some while some seemed to be very ordinary.

Within the temple,

A huge hall decorated with jadeites and multiple exclusively crafted artifacts placed upon its walls acted as the center of the temple. At the very end of the hall, was a golden throne.

The throne was made up of pure gold while multiple crystals were laid within it. At the foot of the throne was a network of veins that pulsed lightly and seemed to provide energy to the throne.

On the throne, sat an aged elder. The elder had a three-pronged crown upon his head while his eyes were dim and seemed almost listless. Looking at him from afar, one would think that the elder had died and basically flopped on the throne.

In his left hand was a trident that shone with a golden light. The trident had various runic scriptures running all over it and if looked upon closely, the scriptures aligned to form various beasts that connected to a singular entity at the tip of the trident.

"Huh?" The elder's body made some movement as he sensed someone approaching. Squinting lightly, the elder saw a female walk down the hall as she kneeled in front of the elder and spoke,

"Great king, we have reached the shore and started preparations," Saying that, the woman continued to kneel and waited for the king's orders.

"Good, you may stand," said the king. His voice was hoarse as his head wobbled.

Looking at the king's wrinkly face and a head full of grey hair, the woman's expression softened. In her eyes appeared various emotions of pain, pity, sympathy and worry.

"Father, why don't you pass it down and take a rest," She spoke, pointing at the trident.

Listening to her daughter's words, the king shook his head over the naivety of his daughter and spoke,

"You won't understand. It's a responsibility that I carry and for that responsibility, I will wait until I die for the chosen one to come and reclaim this position as his own,"

After hearing her father speak, the princess shook her head and thought, "Just what kind of chosen one? He has wasted his life for it and what did he get? I will make him leave this miserable life and enjoy some peace," The princess steeled her resolve. Her thoughts greatly varied from her outer expressions, the princess's thoughts also seemed to be very vague.

"Now, go back and wait. Make sure everything is set up. It won't be long before the great empire rises again, before "Atlantis" rises from the waters and leads the world," said the kings with sudden vigor.
