Saga of Atlantis

"Are we in the right place or not?, sunset happened already." Elysia's voice echoed in the silent forest as we moved together, with me leading the way and Elysia walking behind me.

[Star Sense.]

Closing my eyes, I activated my Star Sense, honing my enhanced senses to create a 3D map of the surroundings.

I focused on detecting any movement nearby, but there was none.

"We are at the right place," I replied opening my eyes as I cleared a path to walk through the dense forest.

"How do you even know about this place?" Nadya whispered in my ear as I gave her a piggyback ride away from the surroundings.

".... Can't say how, but I just do," I replied softly without elaborating.

"Fine, don't say if you don't want to," Nadya mumbled with a smile as she kissed my cheek.

"Can't you walk, Nadya?" Elysia complained, her gaze on her sister.

"Why, are you jealous?" Nadya asked, looking back with a mischievous smile.

"Why would I be jealous?" Elysia asked, her rabbit ears falling down a little.

"....."

I will pretend I didn't see that.

"....Eden," Nadya whispered in my ear again.

"Yeah?" I asked, ignoring the tingling sensation I felt.

"Why does she always behave differently around you?" She asked, resting her chin on my shoulder.

"What do you mean?" I asked, glancing at her.

"In front of everyone else, she's like a cold beauty, but in front of you, she behaves normally. Why?" Nadya whispered again, her soft lips brushing my skin.

"...Not sure, but maybe it's because of my bloodline," I replied, uncertain about how my bloodline even works.

"....And I still don't understand why you didn't make a move on her?" She questioned, making me turn silent for a moment.

"....She's your sister," I replied nonchalantly, not thinking much. "And I'm sure you wouldn't like me being close to her."

"Aw, how thoughtful," Nadya whispered gently, biting my ear.

"What are you guys talking about?" Elysia asked as she arrived closer to us.

"You know, I won't mind anything that you do," she whispered in my ear, making me halt my movements, "unless my position as your first is threatened."

"She gently stepped back from my back as she walked towards Elysia.

[How caring she is for you, Eden.]

'...You seriously don't believe her words, do you?'

[No, I know she will be the first to block your path if you ever try to get close to another girl around her.]

'Glad you understand that.'

Nadya...

She is... obsessed with me.

Like I said before, she isn't the best when it comes to relationships, but she is doing her best to make sure that I am happy.

But that doesn't mean she is ready to take any hit as well.

The moment she feels she is getting less affection from me, or if any other girl is receiving more attention than her, she will do everything in her power to make me love her even more.

Be it emotionally or physically.

And that's why I love her.

She is a yandere, but at the same time, she doesn't do things that will hurt anyone that I like.

"Eden." I snapped back to reality as Nadya waved her hand around my face, "What are you thinking?"

"Nothing much." Smiling, I replied as I pinched her soft cheeks.

"Guys, can't you do that later? We are in the middle of nowhere, remember?" Elysia grumbled, making me look at her.

"Yeah, you are right," I mumbled as I looked around the place.

"Elysia." My ears pricked up as I heard Nadya calling her sister.

"What?" She asked.

"I hope you sleep pleasantly tonight," Nadya replied with a bright smile on her face.

"...What do you mean?" Elysia asked, frowning.

And Nadya just smiled.

"Seriously, what do you mean?" She asked again, but Nadya just smiled in reply.

[Looks like you aren't getting any sleep today.]

"Sigh..."

With a sigh, I shook my head before I closed my eyes.

[Star Sense.]

Using the star energy, I extended my senses outward, covering a large area.

And after that, I let it be for a while.

The thing that I am searching for is a disturbance in the space around me, anything that gives me the location of the realm.

"Hmm?"

And it didn't take me long to find one, the one that was not so far from us.

"Hey, guys, looks like I found it," I announced, making them look at me.

"Is it close?" Nadya asked, walking towards me.

"Yeah, it is," I replied as I extended my hand towards her, which she happily took.

"Do you need an invitation?" I asked as I looked at Elysia.

She glared at me before walking closer and taking my hand.

[Star Sense.]

[Space Wrap.]

The space around us distorted as we moved towards the place that I felt at a high speed.

And it didn't take us long to arrive at the place where I felt the disturbance of space.

"Urgh... What is this?" Massaging her temples from the space travel, Elysia asked as she looked in front.

I looked at it as well, and there it was... A single door.

Nothing but a single door that stood in the middle of the forest.

"That's... new?" Nadya mumbled as she walked closer towards the side of the door.

"Ripple."

And as she extended her hand and touched beside the door, the area rippled like a stone that is thrown in still water.

And just a second later, the area turned still again like it used to.

"Is this the place?" Elysia asked, and I nodded my head as I walked towards the door.

The door from a distance looked simple, but when I came closer, I immediately noticed the small words that were written all over it.

I squatted down around the doorknob as I looked at the words that were written on them.

"Ancient Elven language," I mumbled as I immediately recognized the familiar words.

"Ahh, the one you used to read about when we first met," Elysia exclaimed as she remembered the past.

"Yeah, that one," I mumbled as I touched the door carefully.

"Why were you so interested in elven language, anyway?" Elysia asked, frowning.

"Probably to flirt with some elven chicks," Nadya replied, folding her arms.

"But why ancient language?"

"To flirt with... Some ancient Elven chicks?"

"Come on, you two, I am right here," I grumbled, looking back at them, "and do I look like someone who would learn a whole-ass language just to impress a girl?"

"..."

"...You started reading smut books just to impress me."

Yeah, right, I actually did that when I wanted to get close to Nadya.

"Anyway, I learned that because of a reason," I replied, averting my gaze from them, "when I first awakened, I had a dream."

"A dream?" Elysia asked curiously.

"Yeah, a dream about an elven girl—."

"Was she beautiful?" Interjecting me, Nadya asked.

".....Yes."

"More than me?"

".....Not really, but she was close," I mumbled softly, and her glare intensified.

"....You are more beautiful."

"Aw, don't make me blush Eden."

"So, what was this dream about?" Elysia asked, saving me.

"In that dream, she said something to me in Elven language," I replied, looking at them, as their curiosity piqued.

"What is that?"

"I hope when I find you, I find you alive."

I repeated the words that she said in my dream.

"What does that mean?" Nadya asked, squinting her eyes.

"No idea," I replied, shrugging my shoulders as I stood up.

"Anyway, let's make a tent here. I will need some time to open the door, and it's already night."

I said as I stood up and took out two tents from my inventory.

"Then I will make sure no beast will come close to her by manipulating them," Nadya said as she looked at me.

"Wait, when the heck did you learn to control beasts?" I asked, my brows furrowing.

She blinked innocently before giving me a beautiful smile.

Then, she looked towards one of the trees, and her pink eyes glowed gently.

And the very next second, an owl came down from the tree and stood beside us.

".....I wanna do that too," I grumbled, looking at her, while Elysia made our tent.

"....You can't, baby, you can only mimic the ability," she replied as she made the owl fly away.

"Hmm," I nodded my head before taking out my cooking utensils.

"Eden."

"Yes?"

"Make stamina-increasing food for dinner," she asked with a gentle smile on her face.

"....Okay."

[No sleep tonight.]

'Shut up.'
