The simply held hands as they watched the sunset
Then they both thought the same thing
"I really really want this...to last...forever
Hours later
Shadow and Doshi are seen together with they're hands still clasped but suddenly as if they were hit with cold water
Shadow and Doshi separated as they jolted awake
An eerie laugh echoed through the now moonlight grass fields
It flashed red As the atmosphere becomes red
The moon now leaked blood as cracks appeared around it
Shadow and Doshi stare ahead
As Jagik suddenly appeared in front of them eyes closed head slightly tilted as he innocently waved at them
With a bone chilling voice he says
"Hello friends"
The scene went black as a shimmering blue light slowly became brighter and brighter as it's revealed to be forge is shop
Tendo and Mystery are scene playing a game of checkers as Forge counts seemingly black coins
Forge with a stern and questioning tone says
"Very interesting through out even the outer realms I haven't seen this type of currency"
After forge said that he say a table being flung past him as he heard the repeating strikes and system prompts of Mystery furiously punching Tendo while he laughed
Tendo says mockingly
"Ho ho ho Mystery my boy you truly are the worst player I've ever encountered even brainny the book worm gave me a run my money"
"AND HE DOESN'T EVEN HAVE ARMS OR LEGS AHAHAHAHAHAH"
Mystery yells
"TENDO YOU BAAAAAASSTTTAARRRD!"
"AHHAHAHAHAHA!"
forge with a confused but unsurprised expression stared at Mysterys a.d Tendos antics before thinking
"Hmmmmm now that I think about the war is in one year,I should probably in form Ultra Strike about"
Forge then flashed a greedy smile as he muttered
"And if people know a massive upcoming war is nearing they'll come by from me and I can make it good"
Forge then imagined a planet mage from various kinds of currencies
"Heck maybe ill be able to finish that planet sized money jupiter
Forge hugs himself as he wiggles like a warm
"Maybe I'll gain even more profit if the timeline reset,oh the expectation of all that money is driving me insane"
Tendo and Mystery are then scene questioningly looking at forge as they both thought
"This guy is crazy"
Forge suddenly snapped out his fantasies as he got onto his computer that suddenly came out of nowhere from a wooden floor door as it sharply closed again before blending in with the dark blue concrete as forge says
"Thanks Carles"
Forge begins typing out something with extreme speeds as he then clicked enter
Mystery with a confused expression asks
"What did you just-"
[Global system message]
[All residence of The Axior mid class developing game]
[Please prepare for the upcoming war against the plague realm]
[Warning this is not a joke]
[Head to forge now as everything is now fifty percent off from the 3 months]
Mystery and Tendo with seemingly dissapointed expressions say in unison
"Really forge a promo at this time"
Forge with a serious expression says with pride
"Absolutely as a merchant I must be known across existence as the sole best merchant"
"Righhhht"
Tendo suddenly smirked as he said
"War times are one of my favorite time as it's the worst and best our for merchants to shine in"
Mystery then asks
"What do mean?"
Tendo responds
"Well it's simple actually,every war us merchants bet on which side will win and if the side you were ruting for wins"
"According to the merchant law of equal trade equal arranged"
"The losing merchant has to give 50% of their assets,connections,customers and everything else to the winning side"
Mystery slams his fist to his palm in understanding as he thought about it
Mystery then smirked as his energy suddenly flared
he says to Tendo
"Hey Tendo"
"Hhmmh"
Stare at Mystery
"Let's make a bet on that Axior is going to win"
Tendo became speechless before releasing a mischievous grin as his green energy began surging before reaching out his hand to Mystery
As he says confidently
"Well my friend you got ya self a deal"
The scene darkens as it transitions back to jagik Greeting as the global message echoed throughout Axior
Doshi and Jagik acknowledged the words while Shadow intensely stares at jagik not breaking eye contact
Jagik asks expectingly
"What's wrong Shadow did you not here the system announcement"
"OH RIGHT I ALMOST FORGOT YOUR NOT EVEN PART OF IT ANYMORE!"
Shadow's expression twist in anger but he manages to hold himself back before saying
"What the hell do you want Jagik"
Jagik raises his hands in theatrical surrendrence
"Oh come Shadow what's wrong with an old friend wanting to say hello"
"Of yeah I almost didn't recognize you but hey Kagumi"
Doshi stares at Jagik before saying
"My names Doshi get it right"
Jagik says
"Yeah yeah yeah"
"I already know how prideful you are"
Doshi says
"Just say what you want"
Jagik say
"Oh don't worry I actually came to warn you"
Doshi and Shadow say in unison
"Warn us"
Jagik replies
"Well there's going to be multiple very powerful people in this upcoming war and you guys are going to need to get stronger"
Shadow says
"Why would you care?"
Jagik replies
"Well i care because how will I be able to maybe violate and devour Doshi and make you suffer from absolute despair if you die so early?"
Shadow's expression wavered and Doshi trembled slightly as if what Jagik was saying was true or already happened
Jagik then says
"Well that all I wanted to say now"
"Seeya"
And with that jagik dissappears and everything went back to normal as if nothing happened
Shadow and Doshi slumped to the ground as they exhaled a sigh of relief
Both of them thought
"If i don't get stronger jagik will just kill us so I have to get stronger as soon as possible"
Shadow thought as he raised his fist into the stars sky
"Jagik will be a problem in the future"
"If im going to get stronger i first have to full master the basic and get to stage two of My Ripples fighting art"
"Jagik one day i will end you"
