Misty World: Start with SSS skill

Petran heard someone's voice just now, he  looked around trying to find the direction of the voice. He was surprised when he locked eyes with a strange figure who was standing on the road.

Petran didn't know if he was looking at a human or something with a human form. Apart from the human-like eyes, Petran thought that the creature was a being created from a miniature universe in the form of a human.

Petran took a deep breath, and used his  Ancient HawkEye skill to view the creature's information. However, nothing happened, not even a message  from the system.

Petran was startled, finding this strange he asked himself: "Am I really on earth?"

Because whether the skill worked or not, a message  would appear from the system. But at the moment, there was no message or screen appearing.

Petran tried to calm himself down, then he asked: "Who are you?"

The creature looked at Petran for a while and then said: "The one who brought you into this world?"

"B-brought me to this world?" Petran's face showed surprise. This statement overwhelmed his mind.

'How much power does a person who can bring over a billion players to this world have ? Surely this was something not even an ordinary god could do.' this was what  Petran was currently thinking.

The creature didn't answer but just nodded.

In fact, the mysterious person was Hikaru. It's just that he was currently testing out one of the Void Cloak's abilities - [Description 4: The owner of the Void cloak can meet another person by communicating with their consciousness. The level of the person you can meet should not be 20 levels higher than yours.]

Petran saw Hikaru nod, he was so shocked that this alone almost shattered his mind as he found this situation too unbelievable. Petran tried to steady his breathing, he thought long and hard, and then finally asked: "So… this is Earth?"

Hikaru didn't answer, he reached out his left hand and twisted it in the air a bit. Right after that, time seemed to be turned back, pedestrians went against the road at breakneck speed, the ground gradually crumbled, the high-rise buildings returned to the time they were under construction and became an empty lot.

In just twenty seconds, the entire city that Hikaru and Petran were standing in turned into a piece of dense forest.

Petran was so surprised that he couldn't say anything. He thought Hikaru was a god who could control space and time at will.

Petran was so shaken that he sat on the ground and looked up at the sky. Everything felt  real. He could feel the ground and the grass on the ground, the smell of the mud, the wind blowing, the sunlight,...

After a while, Petran seemed to have calmed down, he asked Hikaru: "Who are you?"

Hikaru looked at Petran and replied in a very shallow voice: "You don't need to know."

"So… why did you want to meet me?" Petran  asked.

Hikaru was silent for 5 seconds and then said: "You are harassing my chess piece."

When Petran heard that he took a deep breath and thought carefully. The chess piece of this mysterious person who  brought the players to this world. Petran reminisced about the people he had met, then he quickly picked two subjects that matched the 'pawn' criterion that the mysterious person was talking about.

"Could it be… Sherwin?"

Hikaru fell silent and raised his hand. Then, a screen appeared in front of Petran. When he saw it he knew it was  the messages he sent to  Hikaru while he was chatting with him.

Petran felt horrible, Hikaru is the one chosen by the gods? That meant that Petran was disrupting the plans of a powerful being, comparable to a god.

Besides, Petran thought that if this person knew everything, maybe Hikaru would know everything.

Petran smiled wryly. Petran felt so horrible and bad he felt like he had just eaten 10 sour lemons that were extremely bitter. Petran thought carefully, maybe Hikaru finding the UR Treasure Chest or possessing a powerful skill, and high level talent was something that the mysterious person in front of him had arranged.

"Are you going to kill me?" Petran asked, his voice was filled with helplessness as he felt the being in front of him would kill him.

Hikaru shook his head and said: "At first, I wanted to get rid of you. However, I find you interesting."

"Interesting?" Petran was startled to hear that. However, just then he seemed to realize something. An idea suddenly appeared in Petran's mind, he immediately asked: "Do you need another pawn?"

"Hum?"

Petran continued: "I don't know how many pawn you have, however, I think you are focusing on Hikaru alone, am I right?"

Hikaru didn't answer but just stared at Petran.

Petran saw the mysterious person saying nothing thinking that he had succeeded. He thought that if what he had said made this mysterious person angry, he would surely die, but as he remained silent it means that he wants to hear what he had to say.

Petran took a deep breath, gathered his courage and continued : "What if, I become your pawn? Although I'm not as lucky as Hikaru, nor as strong as Sherwin, I have a plan. I can help you."

Hikaru was a bit surprised by what Petran had just said, he pretended to be calm, and said in a shallow voice: "You want to be my pawn?"

Petran heard the mysterious man say this and was overjoyed because he knew that he had succeeded in getting the mysterious person interested in him.

"Yes. My current situation is worse than a pawn. If I become your pawn, at least I have a purpose to fight for, a purpose to continue to exist and rise in this world. At least, as a god you will give me that purpose by worshiping you."

Hikaru said nothing. Petran couldn't see his face clearly, so he didn't know Hikaru's feelings at the moment. What Petran could see was Hikaru's shallow eyes.

That's right, his eyes looked so dull as if he had seen it all.

Petran suddenly remembered the legend of the gods. They live very long, perhaps thousands, ten thousand years or millions of years. It's been so long, they've seen it all, so there's nothing left to keep them interested.

Hikaru suddenly said: "You have no purpose to fight, why?"

"I-I don't know…" Petran faltered: "It's like something is pushing me to fight other players. Was that your arrangement?" Petran said this because he thought that the mysterious person in front of him had brought many players to this world and made them fight each other.

He didn't know why the mysterious person in front of him was doing this, maybe he was just having fun or he had some other plans.

Hikaru frowned, his eyes showing a thoughtful expression. After a while, Hikaru said: "You are not qualified to be my pawn right now."

When Petran heard that, he was disappointed, he didn't think that even if he owned a Talent of the UR + Class, he was still not qualified to become a pawn for the mysterious person. However, on thinking about it, Petran felt that he was not exactly qualified.

It must be known that Petran could not see Hikaru's information, which means Hikaru's skill or Talent was higher than the UR+ Class. Perhaps that was what made Hikaru qualified to be the pawn of the mysterious person.

Suddenly, Hikaru said: "You won't be able to imagine how strong my enemies are."

After saying that, Hikaru turned around to leave. Petran hastily said: "Wait, may I know your name?"

Hikaru stopped walking, turned his head to look at Petran and said: "Just need to know that I am the Void Lord."

"So… you are planning something, right? what is it?" After Petran said this, he immediately regretted it. Currently, Petran was just an ant in the eyes of the Void Lord, how was he  qualified to know his plans?

However, Hikaru looked into the distance and replied: "When the fog clears, that's when I will appear."

Right after that, the space shattered into pieces like broken glass.

…

"Ho!"

Startled Petran, he found himself standing in the middle of the fog. Petran was panting, his body drenched in sweat like he had just sprinted a long distance.

"Hey! What's wrong with you? Are you okay?"

Ratia's voice came from behind. Petran heard Ratia's voice and turned his head to look at her.

Ratia saw that Petran's face was red, and his whole body was covered in sweat. Ratia asked worriedly: "Are you okay?"

Petran wiped the sweat off his face with his sleeve and said: "It's okay, don't worry. Did something happen?"

Ratia was puzzled when Petran asked that question, however, she answered honestly: "Of course, you suddenly stood as if you were frozen."

"Frozen? How long have I been standing?"

Ratia thought about it, then quickly replied: "Not long, about 5 seconds."

Petran heard that and took a deep breath, trying to calm his mind. He was Not scared, but was excited. He thought to himself: 'I talked to the Void Lord for maybe ten minutes, but in reality it only lasted five seconds. Perhaps the Void Lord used his power to warp time and space. He's truly powerful.'

Petran gasped, he was really excited and wanted to be the Void Lord's pawn. Petran was certain that the Void Lord's enemies could not be weaker than him, perhaps gods of the same strength as him.

Becoming a pawn in a war between the gods. Thinking of this, Petran trembled in excitement.

If The Void Lord failed, then at least I would be one of the people who fight with gods. If he won…
