1 New's World

08.00 am...

Leon had just awoken from sleep, and the overcast sky that greeted him made him want to go back into bed.

This year was fraught with boredom since practically all of the scientific articles he submitted were rejected.

"My life is complex!" exclaims Leon on this dismal morning when he must face the dreadful fate of life.

When Leon awoke, he discovered a novel on the floor. After some time, he remembered this book, which had a weird air about it and could make everyone who read it feel goosebumps.

The book is entitled Equestria, which tells us about the alternative world that is out there. Even a quick search on the internet yielded no results.

"Why couldn't anybody else sense the weird aura that surrounded this book? as like this book had a unique aura only for me," Leon observed that if this was simply the result of tension from his lectures, he could require more enjoyable amusement for the time being.

Leon didn't have an appointment with anyone to meet this morning, so he was astonished when someone knocked on his door.

As Leon opened the door, Leon approached it gently while shaking with fear. When he saw his devoted buddy James there, he immediately felt relieved.

"Long time no see, my loyal friend. How are you? Leon said this while hugging him.

"Everything is fine."James, who also welcomed his friend's hug, remarked "Thank you for taking care of me."

Nonetheless, Leon sensed a weird atmosphere around his devoted buddy, and it became stronger with each passing moment. Even yet, Leon nevertheless extended an invitation to his closest buddy to spend the evening at his place.

"Why did you arrive so early, brother? Is there a serious problem?" He offered his pal a smoke while he spoke while seated in front of him.

James lit the cigarette for him to enjoy and said, "Can you remove that odd book? A few of the facts were pertinent to me."

With his buddy's unexpected presence and question about the book, Leon felt quite uneasy, but for some reason, he didn't want to think poorly of his friend.

He then went to his room for a little moment to retrieve the book that his friend had mentioned.

He began to feel more uneasy energy and feelings as he quoted from the book, but he persisted for the sake of his buddy.

"What will you do with this book?" Given the uncomfortable environment and the fact that his friend's behavior was already out of the ordinary, Leon inquired.

James opened a page with a magic cube symbol on it right away after Leon handed the book to him.

The odd atmosphere got stronger, frightening Leon to the point of trembling.

"What's the matter with you, damn it!"Why do you look terrible? " Leon slowly walked backward while trying quietly to reach for the cell phone in his pocket.

"You don't have to worry about that, my buddy, because this book has to lead you along the road of destiny." When he said it, James laughed like a demon.

Soon after, Leon's home's windows and doors abruptly shut firmly and locked. Leon became even more alarmed as a result, and he quickly dialed the police.

But just as he was going to do that, his cell phone's signal abruptly vanished. Even the emergency signal, which ought to be available straight away, is completely useless.

"Shet! I'm quite sure you're not James, and this book is driving me insane." Leon slapped him on the face again and again, wishing he was still in the depths of his fantasies.

"It's not a dream, my friend. However, you are doomed to wield one of the parallel world's most potent magical abilities." James jumped up and made a terrible grimace at Leon.

Suddenly, James' appearance altered to that of an elderly guy with a stick. He gave Leon a piercing glance and smile.

A bright, cube-like object was then displayed to Leon by the elderly man as he stood in front of him.

"What does this mean?" Leon asked in a very frightened and confused mood.

"You simply have to live it; you don't have to know how it happened. "

The floor of Leon's home cracked with the force of the old man's unexpected wand-stomping, creating an unstoppable suction-powered gateway.

A vortex encircled by green light suddenly drew Leon into. He was attempting to reach the poles in his house while shouting for assistance as loudly as he could.

"No one will hear you since you are already in my parallel reality," When he saw Leon's worn expression, the elderly guy broke out laughing.

Leon was ultimately drawn through that terrifying doorway. When he collapsed, he simply asked himself one question that had been swirling in his mind.

"What happened?"

Without realizing why the wizard had brought him there, Leon passed out inside the gateway to the other realm.

(***)

Leon slowly woke up from his long sleep and then tried to stand up even though his head still felt a little dizzy. The clothes he was wearing were soaking wet from falling into a large puddle of water.

When the headache was gone, he then found that he was now in a dark place with a lot of rocks.

"Damn it, have you reached another world yet?" Leon then walked aimlessly like a dazed person.

Until, in the end, his foot accidentally bumped into a shiny object that looked like a cube. He finally quoted it and then watched it carefully.

"This is the cube that the old man gave me." "Could this cube be tossed with me as well?"

Sring..!

Suddenly, a beam of light appeared from behind the object. Leon was surprised and immediately bounced and fell back into the puddle. In a panic, Leon then picked up a stone and immediately threw it at the light.

Duk!

"Ouch... why did you throw me anyway?" Suddenly, a fairy appeared who looked like she was about to cry.

"What! A butterfly that looks like a human and can talk? Has my brain gone crazy? " Leon is banging his head as if someone is having heavy thoughts.

"Have you lost your mind? I am a clever fairy who can tell you the chapters in this alternate world. " The fairy looked so arrogant in front of Leon, that it made Leon himself annoyed.

Leon left the elf and ignored her ravings, which sounded like trash. The fairy also intercepted Leon's movements.

"If you ignore me like that, you will never tell me how to use that cube of yours, and you will never get out of this place!" The fairies gave him a stern warning.

"And now there are only two choices in your life, Leon. Do you want to adventure with magical energy or do you just want to stay in this cave for the rest of your life? " She continued.

Leon stopped his steps and turned to face the elf while clenching his fists.

"This is probably the craziest thing I've ever done." Leon cupped his face and took a deep breath. "Well, show me how to use that tool called the cube!"
