Chapter 3 To break a World and its barrier (1/2)

”Basically, no one cared about your world. It had been existing completely oblivious to matters of our universe, wrapped in thick barrier that we call 'Zero World Barrier.' And that's what makes your world special. Earth is entirely forceless just as its residents, but Zero World Barrier had been able to endure attacks even from several Divinities until now...” Goddess looked up to the black hole that was deep in the sky. ”Even such a barrier couldn't withstand a massive attacks from the whole universe and there is still no information about what kind of power was it made from.” Then, she had stopped talking as if to let him contemplate everything she just said.

”What is force?” Xue Ren asked, however deep inside, he was already thinking about magic power and mana from games and novels as comparison to this so called 'force'.

”It's what you think it is, but every race or world have their own ways of calling it. Humans mostly have 'Magic power' while beast races have 'Aura'. We, Dragons have 'force'. Of course there are differences between them, but you will know about it in the future if you decide to go through the path of divinity.” She replied with seriousness.

”What if I won't choose that path. What if I want to save-”

”You can't save your world.” Goddess didn't hold back as she said it straightforwardly ”No one can.”

”Is it becaue of barrier?” Xue Ren already was very worried about his future. There were more Divinities like Dragon Goddess and he knew that most of them weren't friendly like her. Truthfully, he didn't know why she was so patient with him. Wouldn't it be easier to just kidnap him like others?

”Yes, once your barrier disappears completely so will your world.”

Her words made him tremble. Even though he had no high ambitions in his life, and rather lived leisurely, he still wanted to live. Simple thought about extinction already made Xue Ren lose all his calm and so he shouted at Goddess without hesitation.

”So what now! You are going to take those with this fucking Divinity and leave our families, friends and everyone else to death. Then once you take our Divinity or whatever you have planned, we too will become unusable tools only to get thrown away right?!”

”I guess so.” She answered immediately with made Xue Ren open his eyes wide. ”Not everyone is as nice as me. I came here only because I wasn't convinced about the project. Then curiosity took over me and I arrived here. If the ones who had been eyeing you were from stronger dynasty, I wouldn't have come here. Luck is part of your strenght and your destiny...”

”Fuck this destiny! How can I live without everyone, all alone in unknown world! I would rather die!” with his voice full of sadness Xue Ren turned over and started running towards his parents workplace.

Goddess herself followed him silently. She knew that no matter what, this young man won't be able to break through her barrier. Reaching the end, Xue Ren fell on his knees and cried loudly. So what if he got stronger? What if his parents were already dead just like his neighbor or taken already by those fucking Divinities? His imagination was working more than usual as he imagined every possible situation.

But then, white portal appeared behind him. Startled, he turned over and shouted at Goddess hysterically. He believed that it was her doing simply because of her silver dress... Xue Ren's emotional state evidently wasn't proper. Goddess herself was surprised as she looked at white portal. Her eyes brightened and after looking at portal thoroughly, she loudly answered him.
