Apocalypse Cheater
36 Metting her Again
With nothing else to do for the day, Daniel sent his shadows to the shadow realm, and afterwards, he exited from the Danger Zone before finding a nearby teleportation corps in one of the nearby cities as a result, he teleported into the Main district.
The Main District bathed in the soft glow of a fading sunset, held an air of anticipation and intrigue.
This was the very place where he had first ventured into this astonishing alternate reality.
It wasn't just a virtual world, but a reality that sprawls an expanse of imagination made tangible, a realm where the boundaries between dreams and reality seemed to blur.
Stepping into the district, he felt a wave of excitement and curiosity wash over him.
His mission was simple, to delve into the depths of this intricate universe, to unearth any hidden knowledge or forgotten memories that might have eluded him before. Every corner of this enigmatic city held the promise of secrets waiting to be unravelled.
A surreal sight greeted him as he entered the Main District, cities within cities, towering structures that seemed to defy gravity, and a skyline adorned with surreal architecture.
The once-dormant streets now teemed with life as if responding to his very presence.
Overhead, a cascade of luminous holographic titles adorned the airspace, each bearing the enigmatic insignia 'Earth Players.'
He ambled through the streets, his steps guided by nostalgia and a longing for memories that he had perhaps willingly kept at bay.
Familiar landmarks rose before him, each one invoking a pang of sentiment.
It was as if he was revisiting moments he had once experienced, a symphony of déjà vu that played on the strings of his heart.
Lost in thought, he found himself wandering aimlessly, a silent spectator in this wondrous metropolis.
The crowd around him seemed to ebb and flow like a river of life, a constant reminder that he was a mere fragment in the grand tapestry of existence within this world.
He paused momentarily, a sudden realization dawning upon him that he needed a new destination, a purpose to guide his exploration further.
Just as this thought took root in his mind, a voice, soft yet resonant, feminine yet strangely familiar, danced through the air.
"Hey, you wait!" The voice sounded in a hurry with a tint of desperation. But despite that, it still holds a sweet charm.
It was a voice that seemed to echo from the depths of his memories, beckoning him like a siren's call.
His heart raced as he turned, his gaze scanning the vibrant thoroughfare.
And there she stood, a figure bathed in the ethereal glow of neon lights and holographic displays.
Her eyes held a twinkle of recognition, a warmth that tugged at the threads of his consciousness.
Time seemed to slow as their eyes met, an unspoken connection weaving between them.
"I know you must be in a hurry," her voice, a gentle melody, carried a touch of vulnerability that tugged at his heartstrings.
As she spoke, her fingers danced nervously, an endearing display of her own uncertainty. "But would you mind... partying with me?"
Her words hung in the air, delicate as the petals of a blooming flower, fragile yet full of hope.
The city's vibrant hum seemed to soften, creating a bubble of intimacy around them. Her gaze, a mixture of anticipation and shyness, held a magnetic pull that drew him closer.
As her words drifted through the air, a delicate mixture of hope and uncertainty painted her expression.
Her gaze remained fixed on the figure she had called out to, and her heart skipped a beat as he paused in his tracks and turned to face her.
It was as though the universe itself had held its breath, waiting for this pivotal moment to unfold.
[: Player Cecilia has invited you up for a party, do you accept? :]
Time stood still, the weight of the decision hanging heavy in the air. He regarded the holographic message, his features shifting from momentary bewilderment to deeper contemplation.
A fleeting "H-Huh?" escaped his lips, revealing a swirl of emotions beneath the surface.
Unbeknownst to her, Daniel's apparent calmness concealed a torrent of thoughts and feelings. He, a traveller from the future, recognized her, and the revelation had taken him by surprise.
He had not expected to encounter her at this particular juncture.
To her, his demeanour might have appeared steady, his posture unwavering, and his expression tinged with curiosity.
Yet, behind those composed façades, a whirlwind of internal turmoil raged. The knowledge of her identity, a memory from the future he had not anticipated revisiting, lent a complexity to the moment.
In the desolate expanse of a future forsaken by hope, Daniel had traversed a path drenched in the shadows of vengeance.
The gaping void left by his mother's untimely departure had ignited an unquenchable fire within him, an all consuming blaze that vowed to obliterate every monstrous presence from existence.
'I will eradicate every monster that ever lived' he had declared, his voice resonating with the fervour of an oath etched in pain.
His journey, once a lonely crusade fueled by grief and fury, had taken an unexpected turn.
Amidst the ashen landscapes of despair, a figure had emerged like an oasis, her compassion radiating a warmth that pierced through his armour of resolve.
With each shared step, their connection had blossomed into a bond that transcended the boundaries of mere camaraderie, entwining their souls in an intricate dance of affection.
Yet, as if the universe revelled in cruelty, every chapter of his existence seemed to be written in the ink of tragedy.
Each turn of the seasons brought with it the heartrending symphony of loss, a relentless dirge that echoed through his very being.
The faces of those he cherished were torn away, leaving behind wounds that refused to heal.
Haunted by the echoes of departed loved ones, Daniel had embarked on a new quest, to defy fate itself.
He had shouldered the burden of a reluctant savior, determined to reshape the threads of destiny to spare those he held dear.
His purpose was carved from the pain of countless farewells, a testament to his unwavering devotion.
And then, amidst the chaotic tapestry of his life, he found himself face to face with a visage that he had not expected to encounter in this place, at this time.
A rush of emotions surged within him, each sentiment an intricately woven thread that tugged at his heart.
There she stood, a beacon of light in the gloom, the Maiden Priest of the future.
The embodiment of compassion and unwavering strength, she had been his rock amidst the tumultuous tides of existence.
Her presence had been a lifeline that had guided him through the storm, offering solace when his soul was battered and bruised.
Her eyes held a reflection of their shared memories ,the battles fought side by side, the moments of laughter and vulnerability, the unspoken promises exchanged in the silence of their companionship.
A lump formed in his throat as he realized the significance of this reunion, the weight of all they had endured and all they had yet to face.
Tears glistened in his eyes, unshed but achingly present, as he looked upon her.
In her, he saw not just a symbol of strength, but a testament to the resilience of the human spirit. She was the embodiment of all that he had fought for, the embodiment of the love that had spurred him to defy the odds stacked against them.
Emotion surged within him, a tumultuous tide threatening to overwhelm his composure. The ache of loss, the yearning for a different fate, the swell of love that refused to be contained – it all converged into a maelstrom of feelings.
His voice quivered as he spoke her name in his thoughts, the syllables carrying the weight of a thousand unspoken sentiments.
'Cecilia' he whispered, his voice a fragile utterance in the midst of a world steeped in turmoil.
She was more than just a companion, she was one of the Holy Knights of the Apocalypse, a valiant guardian standing as the last bastion between Earth and its impending doom.
As he beheld her standing before him, his thoughts spiralled like leaves caught in a tempestuous wind.
'I had expected and planned to meet her a year later, and I didn't expect to encounter her now' he chuckled inwardly, marvelling at the unpredictability of fate.
The thought danced through his mind, a reminder of how the threads of destiny were often woven with both intricacy and spontaneity.
Life's twists and turns had brought them together at this moment, a convergence that defied his careful calculations.
A smile tugged at the corners of his lips, a smile he restrained to avoid revealing the depth of his emotions.
Relief washed over him like a soothing balm, a wave that swelled from the depths of his being.
She was here, standing before him in the flesh, a stark contrast to the memories he had held onto from the future.
As his eyes traced the contours of her face, he couldn't help but marvel at the enigma of her affection, a question that had perplexed him since their paths had intertwined.
She, the Maiden Priest, had fallen in love with him, a reality that both bewildered and humbled him.
Despite his self-imposed limitations and the sense of inadequacy that plagued him, she had chosen him, a fact that both warmed his heart and stirred a sense of regret.
His thoughts turned to the regrets that had accumulated over time, the weight of missed opportunities and unspoken words pressing heavily upon his mind.
Her untimely demise in the future had been a bitter pill to swallow, a stark reminder of the fleeting nature of their reality.
Regret twisted within him like a gnawing ache, for not reciprocating her love, for not embracing the chance to bask in the warmth of her affection.
But now, a second chance lay before him, an opportunity to right the wrongs of the past. She stood there, alive and radiant, a canvas upon which he could paint the words he had once left unsaid.
The girl he had yearned to apologize to, the one he had imagined spending endless days with, was a living, breathing presence in the here and now.
Daniel's sudden journey into the past had been driven by a singular purpose, the pursuit of power.
He had been consumed by the quest for strength, for the means to change the course of destiny.
As he gazed into her eyes, a whirlwind of thoughts raged within him, a tempest of emotions that threatened to consume him whole.
At this moment, amidst the backdrop of a world teetering on the brink, he found himself faced with a choice, a choice to embrace the present, unravel the tapestry of fate, and seize the opportunity to finally offer the reply that had been long overdue.
And now that she was before his eyes, he can't help but be reminded how beautiful she was once gain.
Adorned with flowing, long locks of blonde hair cascading down her shoulders, the girl exudes an air of ethereal elegance.
The strands are like rays of sunlight, catching and reflecting the light in a mesmerizing dance.
White fabric, intricately adorned with golden plating, drapes her form, creating a harmonious blend of purity and opulence.
The armour, while exuding an aura of regality, is ingeniously crafted to ensure it does not hinder her graceful movements, a testament to both form and function.
Her gaze, captivating and entrancing, is a shade of rich gold, like molten precious metal.
Those golden eyes hold a world of secrets and emotions, drawing one in with irresistible magnetism.
The delicacy of her rose-tinted lips adds a touch of subtle allure, a canvas upon which a thousand words of enchantment could be written.
Her figure is a masterpiece, embodying the essence of feminine perfection.
Every curve and contour seems to be sculpted by the hands of an artist, a living embodiment of beauty and grace.
The way she carries herself reflects an innate confidence, an understanding of her allure that goes beyond mere physicality.
In her hand, she holds a long, elegant wand, a symbol of the power she wields. Its intricately carved designs hint at an otherworldly origin, a conduit for her magical prowess.
She has traversed the initial stages of her journey, unlocking her class and channelling her potential.
Her presence exudes a sense of achievement as if she has already overcome challenges and emerged victorious.
Amidst her enchanting exterior, a sense of innocence radiates from her, like a fragile flower just beginning to bloom.
The combination of her beauty, innocence, and strength creates a magnetic aura that captivates all who cross her path.
She is a testament to the union of aesthetics and substance, a character both visually stunning and emotionally compelling.
Nevertheless, to finish part of the tutorial to this point where it's still the 2nd day since the opening of another reality stimulation is quite a massive feat.
'I've got to see you again...'
Being able to witness the sight of his loved one alive in the flesh has somehow caused his emotions to turmoil.
He was immersed in seeing and if he listened to the sounds of heart, he would immediately hug her and apologize for everything.
'But...in the end...I'm the only one who has memories of her while she has none of me. We're strangers to each other
He sighed in his mind wondering whether he could once again relive their relationship and he was afraid of ruining every single happiness he had with her.
'In the first place, why did she approach me? Wait...don't tell me...'
He had glanced at the surroundings and realized that he wandered off without knowing where he was heading since right beside him was a building belonging to one of the guilds of the Human Continent.
The guild which is called Dawnlight is the guild where the Maiden Priest had taken her tutorial lessons and guide.
Meaning to say, Daniel has either fortunately or unfortunately happened to be at this place and at a time when the Maiden Priest encountered them.
"I-Is that a no?" Watching him in silence, the girl thought he was ignoring her.
'Sigh, it seems I'll need to try my luck tomorrow again to finish part of the tutorial quest'
'I thought I could breeze through the tutorial but it seems there are times where I'll need others' help' The girl thought dejectedly.
