Chapter 120 - The End of Chaos
I stood in the middle of a sea of zombies. Thousands of lifeless beings stared at me in silence, as if awaiting orders. Their empty eyes now reflected obedience. After a moment, I began to choose.
One by one, I called out to the zombies that caught my interest. Some were larger in stature, others had unique abilities, and a few had once been elite fighters before becoming undead. I examined them carefully, ensuring they were worthy of becoming part of my chosen legion.
After selecting more than a thousand zombies, I stopped the process. They now stood in neat rows, silent, unmoving. I felt a bit relieved seeing how easily they could be organized. As for the rest tens of thousands of others I would leave them in this world, not as a threat, but as inhabitants of a new dungeon soon to be built by the Goddess.
While waiting for the dungeon construction to finish, I asked a question that had been lingering in my mind.
"If I return to my world... will I be able to come back here again?"
My question hung in the air. The Goddess’s voice didn’t respond right away. A long silence followed, as if she were consulting something perhaps the world itself, or maybe the other gods.
Several minutes passed before her voice finally returned in my mind.
"Perhaps... yes. This world has acknowledged you as part of it, even though you weren’t born here. But to return, you must first master the element of Space. This world will aid you... if you can connect the rift between realities."
I nodded slowly. Space element, huh... a very rare one. Even in my original world, such power was almost unheard of. But I knew one thing: nothing was impossible. If I had been accepted by this world, then there must be a way to reopen the portal.
Besides, the EXP from this dungeon was amazing. I had acquired many powerful items so far. I wouldn’t mind coming back in the future so long as I could find the way.
The Goddess’s voice echoed again, softer this time.
