Chapter 31: Other Dimension

Samejima greets someone in a call, he briefly endorses himself in his dialogue and puts the phone back on the holder after a few minutes, just for it to ring in the next second. With a deep breath, he answers it again, knowing it's most likely another angry parent, a strict curve down his lips after he listens to the familiar voice:

"Eri-kun, it's a surprise you're calling me and not Ryuu."

"Same-chan! I don't know who else to call, my sons are not answering and it seems their friends are also busy, I don't get what is happening, but I'm really worried! I've heard the academy had an incident, that it vanished!"

"Don't worry about that, it was just rumors… The academy is in its rightful place, I guarantee."

"Ah, that's good to hear! I thought there was something bad going on. By the way, I also wanted to ask about Ryo, you've known him since he was a kid… Do you think there is something bad going on with him right now?"

"Hm. This is hard to say, but Eri-kun, the truth is..."

On the other side of the line, Eri's eyes open wide with the next words she hears, the phone slipping from her fingers, before she snaps out of her terror and clumsily catches the cellphone again.

"Same-chan, what did you just say?"

She gasps for air after holding her breath unconsciously, the chancellor's eyes waver as he repeats it, dealing the last blow to her, she quickly throws in a lot of questions.

"I am sorry, Eri-kun, but this is all I know, I-" the call ends, he takes the phone away from his ears, perplexed.

At the same time, Eri Marufuji makes yet another call, this time, to a different person, her eyes tearing up as she whines:

"Ryuu! Something awful happened! Drop whatever you're doing, we're making a trip to the academy!"

The husband listens as she tells all she found out, a hint of fear in his expression as she unravels the words, his brows angling in consternation.

Inside the dark dimension

Edo and the Hell Kaiser ride slowly, both of them taking a glimpse at every little detail of the place: the wasteland, some rocks here and there and burned down trees whose twigs crackle with the strong wind.

There are some pillars, remains of some construction that used to be there, they can guess, but those are also in a very bad state, there are fissures everywhere and chunks of rocks that fell apart are spread over the ground. Edo pulls the reins of his mount first, stopping in the middle of nowhere.

"Hm, unless we understood it wrong, this should be the place, right?"

"But there is no one..." Ryo grumbles underneath his breath, declaring "They probably left, no wonder, we did the same."

"Yes, but unlike them, I'm sure we can take care of ourselves," he casts a side glance before dropping from his mount and walking around to find clues "Look," he kneels down, his eyes squinting after seeing dried muddy footprints on the ground "Someone did pass by here, and judging by the number of prints, it seems to be one person only..."

"One person? So it might be possible their group was sent to different places after all..." the teal-haired man concludes, putting a hand on his chin "This is troublesome."

"Indeed, one more reason for us to follow the tracks."

His eyes tail the same path to where the footprints were headed to, just to meet the bulky mountain in the horizon, his mouth opening in a mild surprise.

"Though, it might be a bit of an adventure,"

"That's not a problem, we're pros at this." Edo states the glum truth, lamenting inwardly.

"You say this, but-"

Ryo's voice staggers, Edo turns around to look at him after the pause, who reacts by scowling at him, a stern expression forming.

"What? Are you going to stare at me now?"

"No, this is bad! Look!"

He points at the direction behind them both, his eyes also shocked with the sight: there is smoke coming out of a far away place, which seems to be the village they were in. Edo gulps, mounting again and starting to ride back:

"We need to get back and find out what happened!"

"What about the track?! Why are you trying to play the hero now?"

"We can check that later, it won't take long! But if the village was attacked..."

With a huff, Ryo follows, even disagreeing, he knows it's stupid to go separate ways. It doesn't take long until they are back, just to see an ominous, terrible view: the houses are aflame and more crumbled than before, there are no signs of people on the ground, but they can see duel disks messily thrown on the soil.

Their bird mounts stop and become agitated, there is no sign of monsters around, but under some rubble…

"Captain Claudius!"

Edo drops to the ground, shoving some rocks away, grabbing the shoulder of the man and shaking him to wake him up.

His body is half covered by a big piece of a destroyed wall, his eyes open wearily, a faint smile springs on his lips seeing the youngster. Ryo also comes close, squatting near him respectfully.

"You came back, travelers..."

"I'm sorry," his fist clench in unison with his teeth "I came late… The village..."

"No..." he places his hand over Edo's, startling the teen "It's fine… I knew this day would come… But you two… You two won't lose to anyone, will you? You need to go, survive, find your friends and get out of here..."

"What are you saying? We will take you out of here-"

"It's too late..." his body starts to fade "But you two still have hope," his trembling finger directs their gaze to the mountains "Beyond those mountains there is a forest just a few days walking from here and a waterfall…"

"Claudius-" Edo tries to interrupt, but the man continues:

"They say the way is dangerous, but it has a waterfall and it can be a good hiding place… Maybe you will meet your friends there…"

"Wait! Don't…!" Edo shouts, almost ordering him.

"Take care, brave wanderers..."

His smile is filled with peace while looking at their faces, they silence at the sight, that scene engraving into their minds until the man disappears completely, not a single flake of light remains where he used to be. The grey-haired lowers his head, a shadow covering his eyes, he punches the ground out of frustration, the grains of sand scratching his knuckles.

Ryo sighs deeply and stands up, at that same minute, they hear some voices and footsteps approaching, suddenly, the air is polluted with a dusty cloud, a creature mounting a horse appears and sights the two young men.

"Hey, it seems there are some of them left!" a monstrous voice announces "Let's finish them."

More of those duel monster-like creatures appear, a whole troop of them surrounds the two. The blue-haired casts a haughty gaze, downsizing them.

"Finish them…?" the grey-haired stands, saying between his teeth, a menacing, indignant glare at the monsters "You killed Claudius and everyone in the village, even the children..." his breath is shaky, his hands trembling with the force "I don't know about you, Hell Kaiser, but I'm going to destroy them all!" he sets his duel disk on his arm.

His eyes flinch upon hearing the sound of Ryo's duel disk setting on too, his eyes flashing towards the companion. That was the first time he'd seen such a furious glare, the Kaiser's eyes looked like they burned intensely from inside. He wasn't the only one pissed off at those villains.

They both start their duels, challenging multiple opponents at once even, and making sure they'd avenge the villagers who died by the vile hands of those monsters.

At the duel academy

Hefty and scurried footsteps roar in the corridor, the man in a grey suit opens the door with a dramatic thud, his eyes under the frameless glasses darting to the back of the chancellor who looks through the window inconspicuously.

"Samejima!"

Ryuu Marufuji closes the door with a bang, adjusting his glasses and approaching the desk, slapping it loudly. There is but a slight change of angle on the head of the principal that is still unwilling to show his face.

"I suppose Eri-kun told you about the latest happenings..."

"How can you be so calm?! First there is the case of the missing students inside an island, the child of the Tenjouin plus a bunch of other students! Then, I heard rumors that the academy building vanished, and somehow all the students vanished along, my youngest son included! Then, the news said that Ryo cancelled his world tour in the pro league to come here! And you stand here in your office looking at the island?! What happened? I see the rumors of a missing academy are obviously fake, but..."

"What if I told you it was not fake?" he turns around, his arms behind his back and a distant, rueful gaze "It's my fault too, but I'm afraid it is beyond my capabilities to prevent such things from happening… While the other missing students did come back, it was also not in my powers to have helped them..."

"What do you mean?!"

He straightens his posture up, furrowing his brows and crossing his arms, his glare demanding an explanation before he fully gives in to the stress and snaps again.

"The academy building was translated into another dimension not long ago… However due to the efforts of many people, Ryo included, it was brought back..." he sighs heavily, unwilling to elaborate "I thought it was over, I really did, but those students… It seems they were up to mischief and they decided to travel between dimensions again, both your sons were in it too."

"What? Other dimensions? What are you talking about?!" his posture breaks, gulping harshly, bemused at the situation.

"Take a seat, this will be a long talk if you want me to explain everything..."

He offers with a hand, Ryuu pinches his temples, feeling the headache already starting before attending to the request, trying to keep the last straw of patience before it runs completely out.

"Ryo has been the honor student type until recently when he suddenly decided to become a troublemaker, but Shou is in it too? I don't really get what is happening."

"If I may… Currently there are many students missing, we believe they are all somewhere far away, but we have no means of contacting them or even following them to where they are..." his expression dims at the last part "I will not ask you to forgive me, it was my responsibility as an overseer of the students, yet..."

"Enough of self-retaliation, I want to hear the truth, and if you allow me to ask, there's also something else I'd like to hear..."

"Something else…?"

Ryuu takes a deep breath, and pulls a picture from his pocket, slamming it on the desk of the principal. Samejima carefully grabs it, his eyes opening keenly upon seeing an image of Rie.

"This girl… You know something about her too, don't you? I heard she was a student here and I would like it if you can explain to me this whole mess, and please tell me you know what is going on, because I'm about to have a serious conversation about how many infractions your school should be sued for."

"Did you hire someone to spy on her…? I knew you were always shrewd to observe your enemies, but I don't think she's your enemy… She's just the daughter of the Kinomoto conglomerate leader, you should know that."

"You think I took that picture or hired someone to do it? You really think I'd do that?"

He snorts, shaking off his head annoyedly and rummaging through his pocket, taking out a bundle of pictures and handing it to Samejima:

"One of the reasons I came was this."

The principal accepts it and skims through them, his eyes opening slightly, gaping at the sight, the images feature Rie or Ryo, sometimes both, but just pictures of them on the streets meeting up, either smiling to each other or kissing.

"I see…"

He smiles briefly, it was not unknown to him they'd been in a relationship, in fact he'd got wind of it way earlier than the time Ryo admitted to it in their latest conversations, ever since school he got this feeling they'd become a couple one day. That smile is interrupted by the exasperated voice of his friend:

"It was not me who had someone take the pictures, but those images came in an unidentified mail to my house! Do you understand that? After knowing someone is prying into my son's life, I search for him to clear any misunderstandings to find what is going on, just to discover that he has vanished into thin air in the island of an academy that should be under your jurisdiction."

"I understand…" he puts the photos down and sits on his own chair "First, let's talk about the latest developments and what happened to Shou and Ryo… I will explain more about Rie-kun after..."

Ryuu crosses legs and arms, setting an annoyed glare on the man in front of him, listening to the words without voicing a complaint, to hear the full story. What have his sons been doing this whole time and why is it that he has this oddest, frightening sensation rotting his heart?

In the Dark Dimension,

The sky is bleak and gloomy, Ryo and Edo look around in some ruins, it's the same as usual, a bunch of dead rocks, empty houses, duel disks lost on the ground and no signs of life.

For the past few days they have been following the trail of those footsteps, coming across a couple villages in the way, but all they see is a dead zone and the wastelands. The only positive outcome is that mountains are closer now.

They stop for a break, Ryo takes out of a bag attached to his mount a brown flask, opening it, then noticing something. He turns the flask upside down, not a single drop of water, Edo promptly takes his own, tossing it to Ryo, but it's in no different situation as he turns it upside down, and no water comes out of it. They sigh in a disheartened mood.

"Claudius said there should be a waterfall beyond the mountains, I can already see the base of those rocks. I'm counting on that to find some water, but the situation is dire, and that's being optimistic… Not only we couldn't find more people to ask around, but we even lost track of whoever came in that light… The trail got erased by wind or confused with others, it's hard to tell where they went…"

"It's likely that person also crossed through those villages we just passed by, supposing they are alive, it is..."

"Hey, don't even joke about that, Ryo!"

He yells, berating the other, his throat parched after the exasperation, he coughs. When did they drop titles as duelists and started calling each other just by their names? Time can really do wonders, in particular if you're also in a deadly place, he notes.

"Worried too much?" Ryo smirks in a sarcastic tone, but it dwindles quickly, he can't even humor himself with that.

Their state of mind changes to awareness when they hear a sound, the blue-haired man sharpens his eyes, paying attention to every little movement, riding slowly through the ruins, his companion does the same, just a few meters behind.

A shadow leaps in front of them and another one behind, duel monsters again, one of them Yamimakai king and the other, a lowly orc soldier.

"My king! They're fresh meat! But it's not that other rat we were chasing!"

The answer to the monster is a guttural growl that makes the subordinate sweat and declare in panic:

"Y-you two! You're not getting past this area! Don't you know this zone belongs to the great King of Yamimakai?"

"Get out of the way, loser!" Ryo squints his eyes, lifting his gaze arrogantly, disdaining the creature ahead.

"Y-You dare to talk to my master like this you scummy brat!" the orc behind stutters in anger, but Edo stands in between him and the Kaiser;

"You'll be answering a few questions to me, lackey! This 'rat' you mentioned, did it look like us?"

"As if I would tell you!"

The pro duelist shrugs off and scoffs in a conceited manner, activating his duel disk and challenging the low level monster, Ryo takes on the boss while casting a blank, uninterested glare, as if that monster was not even worth his time.

It takes but a few minutes until the whole matter is almost fully solved, the Yamimakai king disappears like ashes while Edo is about to finish his opponent, Destiny Hero Devilguy floating behind him, awaiting instructions. His eyes take a glance over his own shoulder, as if questioning Ryo in an irritated tone.

"He didn't want to speak," he answers simply, understanding why he received that look.

"Well, it seems I'll be doing the job..." he mumbles in between his breath.

"P-Please spare me! I was just obeying orders!"

"You there! Tell me more about this person you were chasing..."

"I-I will tell you!" he clasps his hands together in a plea to let him live "I-it was a scrawny, foreign human like you two," their eyes flash towards each other, then they look attentively at the monster "What did they look like?"

"I-I don't know much, they were using a blue mantle and hiding their face with it, just that I don't know much more, just they could duel too, we chased them because they were messing around in our territory! Defeating some of our ranks!"

"A duelist like us… I see… Is there anything else you can add?"

"Ugh..." he shakes off his head "I-I can maybe help finding them, we were very close..." a drop of nervous sweat rolls down his face.

"I'm sorry for you really, but we're not accepting any help."

"Hehehe… You think you're smart? Let me tell you, even if you defeat me or my master, we were nothing but peons of the lord of these lands… He will destroy you two! You'll die!"

"Tsk, this guy… Devilguy, finish him!"

The hero nods, and with a war cry, he cuts the orc in half, the monster yells and disappears, along with the materialization of his hero. He ignores the scene, his eyes narrowing, thinking deeply.

"Hm… Who do you think it could be? I'm worried because they are alone, but it seems they could fend for themselves and survive..."

"I don't know, but it doesn't look like they're still here… We better get going, I have a bad feeling about this whole tale of a lord of the land plus our elusive duelist..."

They fasten the leash and slowly start going towards the mountain until a strange sound roars behind, they keep going forwards, taking a look back, their brows furrowing in reaction.

There is a palanquin being carried by dinosaur monsters, and many lowly servants riding along with the gigantesque creatures, on top of the palanquin, an odd humanoid duel monster: a dark-skinned young man with spiky white hair partially covering one of his eyes, a piercing red gaze and a ragged black and red mantle over his dark pants, his shoulders protected by piece of intricate armor; and a metallic gauntlet with a gem on his dominant hand. The Fallen of Albaz, he stretches his hands chanting something.

"Crap, we shouldn't waste more time here, how about we spare ourselves from dueling now?"

"You don't need to tell me…" he puts a card on his duel disk, evoking the monster "Cyberdark Edge!"

The dark dragon arises, its piercing voice echoing in the air, Ryo quickly jumps from his mount to its back and offers his hand to Edo that accepts the help, grabbing it and jumping atop the dragon's head.

It flies in the skies, towards the mountain while the two duelists prepare to counter any attack that can come after them, observing the enemy's movements. When they reach the top of the mountain, they can see the other side of the land: a small portion of wastelands that becomes greener and turns into a forest, a river too and a waterfall, far away.

They have no time to get a full scope on the landscape. A sudden dark-red, bright light emanates from the Fallen of Albaz. The light spreads all around the servants and some of them disappear, in a second, a stunning view blesses their eyes: the light takes shape and from it Alba-Lenatus the Abyss Dragon arises, flames surrounding its body wreathed in a thick red armor, its roar making the earth shake, and causing a shockwave that blows the Cyberdark unstable, both duelists shielding their eyes from wind with an arm.

"You can't be serious… What is that dark-dragon?!" Edo gapes, his eyes wavering amazed and fearful of the monster at the same time.

The summoner of the dragon stretches his hand point at the wanderers, an order for the monster to attack, they both brace themselves for impact, the Kaiser orders his dragon to dive in quickly and hide behind the mountains, but the explosion of consuming flames is already at the point of being launched, until…

While the Dark Edge dives down, they catch a glimpse of a person standing atop the mountain, a human with a light-blue mantle, while their face is hidden, they wear a duel disk, and activate a card on it. On the next second, from the ground around the Abyss Dragon a set of chains pierce through the earth and binds the beast to it while it strives and growls furiously.

"Shadow Spell… That card is..." Ryo flinches, his heart drumming inside him fast, anxious.

"What? Do you know who has that card?"

"That is not possible, it shouldn't be… It can't be Judai and his friends..."

The person looks up at them, but they're too high up to see their face. The teal-haired man narrows his eyes in distrust, if his suspicions are correct… he gulps at the thought. However, that is not enough to fend off the enemies, the Fallen of Albaz yet again chants something, and some of the monsters following him disappear, a chill runs down the pro duelists' spines.

Another dragon arises, more furious than the first one, this time, it starts attacking immediately, the explosive fire comes in bursts, so fast they barely have time to order their mount to dive again, in hopes it can hide before the hit lands.

The person at the mountains also dunks down, trying to hide, the obfuscating light of the dragon's attack starts swallowing them whole, before it happens, Ryo activates his trap Ultimate Providence to avoid death for both of them, but even with the damage negated the devastating shockwave of the attack cracks the whole mountain, and blows them away along with the Dark Edge.

When the light ceases, the Fallen of Albaz looks around, the chains around his first Alba-Lenatus disappears, setting it free and the intruders are nowhere to be seen. With a gesture, he stops the troops and turns around, casting a last glance at the mountains, a menacing glint to his eyes.

Hours later

Beyond the mountains, the sound of the river running fast and water bouncing on his ears wakes him up. His eyes struggle to open on their own, his hands twitch, his wet fingers grasping some pebbles, grains of soil glued to his palm.

Lifting his blue head, he takes a glance around, his head toppling down drowsily. He forces his muscles to muster strength and gets up, his clothes and hair are dripping, he can feel his body aching all over, something noticeable just by looking at his reflex on the water, his face has more than just a few scratches, his skin purple on his cheekbone.

It doesn't take long to understand, after being blown away along with the Cyberdark Edge, they fell down the precipice, rolling along with some rocks that were exploded by the attack and dropped into the water, Cyberdark Edge cushioned their fall briefly, avoiding casualties, but disappeared right after.

They both lost consciousness and apparently they were washed off to the shores of the river after that. He can see his briefcase stuck to some rocks. His eyes zigzag around, the landscape blurring for just a few seconds until he spots Edo.

His feet make haste to reach the other duelist, his knee practically dropping to the ground wearily while he checks on the life signs of his companion. He's breathing, that's a start. His hand brusquely grabbing under Edo's shoulders and dragging him out of the water and laying him on the pebble soil.

The silver-haired teen opens his dizzy, unfocused eyes, Ryo steps back giving him space to breath until he sits down, putting a hand to his forehead.

"What happened? I just remember that dark dragon attacking us… And that person at the mountain that tried to help us..."

"We've arrived at the other side of those mountains, but..."

Ryo stretches his hand, helping him up. Edo shakes off his arms, a failed attempt to dry his clothes that also drip aplenty, sighing heavily. His body is also hurting all over, his face has visible scratches and a red wound on his forehead that stopped bleeding by now.

"Great. What do we do now?" Edo walks a few steps, grabbing his suitcase, beating the dirt off.

"Scan the area, find the other duelists and continue," he replies calmly in contrast with the bad mood of the other "Unfortunately, there's nothing much to do besides that."

Ryo also takes his own suitcase that was somewhere near the borders of the river, sinking into the earth. They're amused that their belongings are intact with how strong the impact was.

They are about to start another discussion on which steps to take next, but when they open their mouths, both of them sneeze almost at the same time. Edo rubs his reddened nose, glaring glumly at the Hell Kaiser that also does the same, why did they even come to watch Judai and friends at the damn portal in the academy again? Worst decision ever.

The scene changes to them sitting on a tree trunk on the ground in front of a fireplace, near the riverside. They're wearing nothing but their dark colored boxers underwear that differs by a shade. An ancient unspoken rule leaving at least a two meters distance in between them, the fireplace in the middle, warming them both.

Edo crosses one of his legs over the other and also his arms, tapping his foot on the ground impatiently, his posture impeccable even when he is angry, his silhouette a bit smaller than the other boy's, but not less defined.

Ryo just bends his broad back forward, supporting his arms on his almost fully bare legs, trying to get as much heat as possible from the fire. Their clothes are hanging on a wooden log across them, being dried and smoked by the flames. Their duel disks right beside their dominant arms in cases of need.

Their backs and arms are full of bruises from their little flight accident. Notwithstanding, they're glad enough to be alive. An icy wind of the night blows past them, their bodies trembling as they try to keep their composure, none of them admitting out loud how unbearably cold it is. Their frowns accentuate until the silver-haired teen dares break the silence, a little reluctance in his speech:

"So… Do you have any idea who that mysterious duelist is?"

"I thought it's one of us, but it's hard to say just by a card..."

"For someone who saw any card, you looked quite worried. Do you know who they are or not? Spill it out."

The answer of the blue-haired man is a sharp side glance and a huff of annoyance. "I do. But if it's really who I think, then I'd rather not. You know her too…"

"What does that even mean...?"

He snorts and prays to the skies for patience, why does every conversation with him have to be a guessing, cryptic puzzle?

"And did you just say 'her'?"

Ultimately, he shakes off his head, it's more trouble than it's worth to keep on squeezing out information, it's been only a few days, but he grasps Ryo isn't the most talkative or cheerful travel partner.

Why did he have to be stuck with the most introverted person in the world? Given the guy owns the title of "Hell Kaiser" he shouldn't be surprised he's socially inept. It makes him miss Judai and his friendly bunch.

"Rie. I've seen that card in Rie's deck."

"What?!" he adjusts on his seat, inclining to the side, his eyes widening at the sudden reply "You can't mean that she also…?"

"Though I can't affirm no one else has that card in their deck, I'm sure she does."

"No, that can't be, she was on the island, but we only got dragged because we were close, she wouldn't be… Would she?"

"We were supposed to talk that night, but the last I got from her was a message saying she had urgent matters to settle."

"Urgent matters… Do you think she also followed Judai?"

"I don't know. It's not impossible."

Ryo simply lowers his gaze, he can see the unwillingness and even distraught of accepting this is even a possibility that his girlfriend would be there, understandably. This is no place for anyone to be in. Already regretting his choice of query, he changes the subject:

"Anyways, I will say this now, but what is happening here today better stay between us."

"I won't say it if you don't either."

He gazes into the distance, pretending as if they're not in an extremely awkward and uncomfortable situation.

"I see we're on the same page," he sighs in relief, his expression becoming more serious "You think Judai and the others are fine? With how that dragon almost killed us, I can only imagine what else out there could be waiting for us and for them."

His blue orbs drift away, his concern as profound as that dark forest ahead, Ryo continues with the same amount of collectedness, a slight frown between his brows.

"Judai was not in his best mental state, he lost Johan and was desperate to find him. Leaving him alone is like asking for problems, but if the others are with him, they should be able to help," he pauses, his eyes squinting for a moment, reconsidering "Or perhaps, being with them will just cause him more distress. It's hard to say, whichever is the case, it's better to find them sooner than later."

The flames crackle, embers floating, his eyes reflecting that image as he ponders on all that has happened. That moment is interrupted when the noise of small branches snapping spreads in the air.

Their blood boils, each one getting hold of their own duel disk, ready to take on whatever is coming from the woods, tense beads of sweat rolling down to their chins, this wasn't the best moment to be dueling.

With a soft step, the perpetrator of those noises appears, it's undoubtedly the same figure they saw atop the mountain a couple hours ago, the light blue mantle is unmistakable, another detail they can't help but notice it's definitely a girl.

She gasps for a moment, putting down the hoodie, her pink hair falling over her shoulders, her blue eyes flickering upon seeing them both there. Ryo gulps dryly, standing up in a hurry, that can't be...

"Rie?!" his voice comes off a bit more shocked than he wished to.

His eyes waver subtly, conflicted feelings revolting in his heart, a mix of fear and disgruntlement for her presence there warning him that was a terrible thing while at the same time, a slight flutter of happiness that she was there to be with him.

A dire shadow is cast over his face, his heartbeats becoming unrhythmical, he could hear the pulsation on his ears, the scenario twisting around. Rie shouldn't be here, not in this world. He stumbles a step back in disbelief. Why? She should be in the academy, not in this death zone. Why did she have to come here too? He has a very bad presage, the most disquieting memories coming up to his head as those people disappeared in front of his eyes.

What will they do now? Who else was mistakenly dragged into this world? They have to find Judai and all their friends fast and get out of here before that bad feeling he has becomes reality.
