People often say, when a person is dying, all of his life will flash in front of his eyes, so that one second may seem like forever.
Sam Walker was waiting for this moment as now he is in the air. He can only hear the wind rushing through his ears, and his body light as a feather.
That moment never came.
What felt like a second, was actually a second. In less than 10 seconds, Sam's feet has already touched the surface of the lake.
This is it. The cliff is about 100 meters in height. It is situated in the middle of no where, deep inside a forest. So deep, it's so quiet. Strangely quiet.
Before Sam jumped, this thought actually crossed his mind:" Why is it so quiet tonight?" Then it started raining. The rain distracted him.
What Sam didn't know was that, at this same moment, about 12000 KM away from him, Zeus and King are talking.
"What is happening?", Zeus said in an annoying voice, "I have a bad feeling about this."
"You killed how many of them today, 54?", King responded in a clam and deep tone, "we did well."
"One of them was Celestial S Tier. I might have overdone it.", Zeus closed his eyes, "I need to return to my realm for now. "
"Go. I can finish off here." King replied as he stands up, dressed in all black. The room that they are in is also pitch black, but if someone is able to see, he might notice that King's eyes are all black, with gold like outer rings around them. They look like blackholes, that suck everything in.
Suddenly, a lightning appears out of thin air, no sound though, only light. With that lightning, Zeus is gone.
King lowered his head, and sighed, said in a lower voice, almost like mumbling to himself "Zeus, you are always so naive."
Suddenly, King raised his head, almost like he felt something.
"Hmmm, this is indeed very strange. Zeus might be stupid, but his feelings are always a bit faster than mine." King said to himself, "I feel...vibrations?"
Yes. King is right. In fact, the entire universe of this realm is vibrating. However, no common human beings, animals, or plants can feel it. But it is vibrating in a certain rhythm, almost like the universe is singing a song.
"Stop!" King suddenly shouted, and just as his words landed, a black sphere started to expand from him as the center of origination. Whatever the sphere touches, all matters vanished, not reduced to atoms, they simply ceased to exist, like they were never created in the first place.
Inside his sphere, there is only void. No vibrations.
"Time to wipe these bastards off from this realm."
Sam didn't feel anything.
He should be dead, with bones fractures all over his body, internal organs crashed, and probably head explosion upon impact.
Actually, there was no "impact". His body simply passed through the water. That's right, its like the lake didn't exist, yet it is there indeed to a human eye.
It is like, what quantum physicists on this earth would say, all of the atoms in Sam's body vibrated in a certain way that directly avoided the collision with the atoms in the water of the lake. How is this possible?
Sam, didn't know a thing, was still waiting for his death to come. After about 15 seconds, he opened his eyes.
He is now deep in the lake, and still falling. He can't see anything because there is no light. However, he didn't need to see.
A voice appeared in his mind. Yes, out of no where, and it says :"Are you dumb? What the hell are you thinking?", the voice is in high pitch, and spoken with haste, "I always need to deal with people like you, coward."
"Yes, that's you, you are a coward." the voice continues, "Ohhhh, my wife died, my son died, now I must kill myself. Bullshit! Well guess what - its your lucky day, I saved you because you were marked as the Reserve, and I just happened to pass by here tonight." the voice laughs, "Hah, that's right, you have no idea what I am talking about. Okay, here you go."
As the voice is gone, so is Sam. He fell to the bottom of the lake and vanished. If a person just happened to pass by right now, he would see that there is a very bright dot that's shining like a flash light at the bottom of the lake. It is slowly diming down and fading away.
