Salty wind brushed past my cheeks. The sound of gulls screaming in the air and the waves crashing against other waves filled our ears as the sate-boat rocked in the ocean.
I had broken over one of the flags of the satellite and was using it as a row as we pranced through the ocean.
Albert was still slightly out of it, clenching his head in his knees.
We were too exhausted. It wasn't that we couldn't use magic to get on our way, but that we didn't want to. A ntal exhaustion that would usually convert into lethargy but was holding on for now.
"Can't believe we're back on Earth," Albert humd after a fairly long silence. "I have been trying so much, and then, just like that, we're back on Earth."
"I guess so."
"We don't have to fight anymore, do we?" Albert asked. "We can just stay in this world."
"I'll burn this world twice over to just see Lethe. What are you even talking about?"
Albert sighed and fell on his back again.
"I know. I know, it's foolish to think that thing won't co here too. Didn't that old man Framtida say the Outer Gods only ca out now?"
"He did," I said.
"But the ga's outer gods weren't like that.They were… killable."
Albert seed to have taken a huge hit. He was grasping at straws. For soone who tried his best to understand everything, sothing that unfathomable must have been quite the experience.
The two of us remained in silence again while pushing the sate-boat through the ocean in just whichever direction we wanted to.
It was then, a loud scream rang from above.
I looked up and saw a teor falling straight down.
As I focused my senses on the teor, familiar locks of red hair entered my sight. I stretched my hand out and reinforced it with my Ki and in the next mont—
"AAAAAH!"
—BOOOM!
The water all around us shot up like a geyser and the satellite went deep into the water before pulling back up. In my hands now was Luka knocked out of it.
"What is this guy doing here?" I muttered.
Albert glanced at him and sighed.
"Just row, man. Just fucking row."
***
Luka woke up so ti into the leisurely sate-boating. I could probably make that a business in Apollon.
The man sat up in a rush and started wincing and holding his head.
"Ack… help…"
"We've already gone through that."
"Co on, Luka. Do sothing new please."
Luka was not given the sweet chance of expressing his pain.
***
The three of us now sat together on the sate-boat, leaving the rowing to the whims of the waves.
A yawn escaped as the sunlight started drying my hair up. It was warm yet cold, cold yet warm, the perfect place to sleep after an ordeal like that.
"Are you sure those dragons won't attack us?" Luka asked, yawning.
Of course, we had also shown another of the damned airplanes to Luka who mistook it for a dragon.
"They're not dragons."
"They will if they sees red."
Albert glared at when I answered and shrugged.
The three of us sat in silence once more.
Then, Albert spoke.
"Considering that… thing, sent us all where we were supposed to be, what are you doing here?" He asked Luka. "This is mine and Yuyu's world, not yours."
"I was just floating around and around and around," Luka said. "I don't know. That was nothing like the outer gods I knew of. It felt as if there was sothing, omnipotent."
The adjustnt ti varied by person it seed.I think you should take a look at
"I guess its because he's from the future?"
The other two raised their brows at my words. From the future, now that made sense. The future didn't exist in the now, it was impossible for him to go back to wherever he was supposed to be.
In that case.
All three of our eyes glead.
A sense of strength lingered in the back of our minds.
"Even that being made a mistake."
"It just might…"
"Not be omnipotent."
A smirk escaped . Was such a vague chance enough to lift both of their spirits? I had no idea.
"Yuyu, where are we? We gotta get to land."
"I'll take a look," I said and summoned a shield below my feet. I still had about half a tank thanks to the battle being easy. As I floated further up, I saw an island a few nautical miles to the west. I had no idea of how many, but they were bound to be a few.
Descending back down, I inford my mates of the presence of the Island.
"Perfect, move us there," Albert said.
"You do it."
I snapped.
"Don't wanna use magic…"
"I don't want to use Ki either."
I sighed at both of their words and slumped on the sate-boat.
"I don't wanna either."
"Let's just row there."
And row we did.
***
The sun started to go down by the ti we neared the edge of the island I had noticed.
Neon lights flashed while deep bass bood through the wind, people in bikinis and shorts were constantly walking around the beach while stages were set up with drones performing a light show.
It all beca clear by the ti the sun set, and while all of us could have noticed it easily we were just too out of it do so. And by the ti we had noticed the rave of people, they had noticed us too.
The music stopped and the drones turned their lights toward us.
I stood upright on the sate-boat while the other two looked at the people with widened eyes.
All the people were staring at us.
And we were staring back.
"Is that a satellite?"
"Are those horns on his head?"
"Is it like a special event of so kind?"
"Aliens?"
The people were confused.
Rightfully so.
I looked back at the drones and the walls and noticed so words hanging on banners.
A horned man walking into the beach on a satellite, there was only one way to fix this.
I spread my arms to the side and with the widest grin I could summon, I shouted.
"WELCO TO!!!"
The people hopped and reeled back.
"BERMUDA BEACH PARTAY BABYYYYYY!"
