The Event

As I said before, none of this is relevant, so I'll tell you what happens in a not so elaborate way, giving more freedom and time to write. Well, if you want, see it as an idea and develop your own fanfic in a more elaborate way, I don't see a problem with that. That's all I have to say.

...…

...

A certain woman walked through the halls of the royal palace, sloppily carrying two unconscious men, as if she didn't care about them.

Wherever she went, no one dared to look her in the eyes, all the nobles, soldiers and royal guards bowed before her presence.

A woman with a charming and mysterious appearance, short in stature but with an imposing presence. Her blue eyes are bright and piercing, capable of catching the attention of anyone around her. Her golden hair falls softly around her face, adding a touch of softness to her appearance.

Her smooth, blemish-free skin is like porcelain, perfectly smooth and radiant. Her expression is mature, suggesting wisdom and experience, but her sharp gaze conveys a sense of authority, as if she is in control of everything around her. She is a blend of beauty, confidence and mystery, making her impossible to ignore.

This woman's name is Lina. In addition to her beauty and mystery, she was the captain of the Vanir royal guard, being known as the guardian of order. She is the most powerful individual in the realm and nearly as respected as Mira, but that was because fear for her was above respect, and no one but Queen Mira would dare boss her around.

From the two bodies she was carrying in her arms, it was already clear that Lina was the same swordswoman who had knocked out Lucius. As she walked, her gaze was as sharp as ever.

Lina walked through the halls of the royal palace until she reached the chamber where the chief healer, Yuna, attended to her patients. She knew that Yuna was the best in the kingdom and that she would do whatever she could to help her.

Arriving at the healing chamber, Lina entered without hesitation and caught the attention of the only person there. A woman with shoulder-length pink hair and beautiful eyes that matched her hair color, her appearance could be described as that of a cute teenager, but her sensual body left that in doubt.

That woman was Yuna, one of the guardians of the Vanir Kingdom and the person Lina was looking for.

Lina throws Lucius and Lakyus carelessly onto a nearby bed. She then looks at Yuna who was in a perplexed state upon realizing the identity of one of the men.

"Lina-san, what happened? Is that Lakyus-san?! How did he end up so injured? Has the kingdom been attacked again?"

Lina just answers in a simple way.

"It's nothing like that, so stay calm.

Those idiots were fighting and nearly destroyed the palace, I had to teach them a lesson. They're unconscious and they look injured, so I need you to heal them."

Yuna understood that Lina was the one who put them in such a precarious situation, so she tries to lecture him about how she had overdone it and could have killed one of Vanir's triumphs.

But then Lina corrects her, stating that she only appeared at the end. The damage they suffered came from the fight the two had. Which left Yuna in an even more surprised state.

"Are you telling me that it was this man who left Lakyus-san in this state? If he's that powerful and he's hostile towards one of our own, why do you want me to heal him?"

"You will soon know, just know that it is Queen Mira's wish that this man be healed as soon as possible."

When she heard about it, Yuna didn't question it anymore.

Instead, she began examining Lakyus and Lucius' injuries, paying special attention to the state of the former, who appeared to be in critical condition. Lina stood to the side, watching intently as Yuna applied her knowledge of medicine and healing magic, healing the wounds and treating the pain the two men were feeling.

While taking care of Lakyus, she couldn't help but observe the man who even with serious injuries, looked peaceful in his sleep, almost as if he didn't feel anything. She looked at Lina with a serious expression and asked:

"Can you tell me what's going on? Why would it be in Queen Mira's best interest for me to heal this man? And who is he?"

Lina sighed and looked at Lucius. She knew the story was complicated and couldn't be tackled like that out of the blue, she also knew that Yuna deserved to know the truth as one of the Guardians, but she had been ordered to keep it a secret by Mira.

"It's information I couldn't reveal for now, but I already said it would soon be revealed. Queen Mira is on a journey, when she returns tomorrow, the identity of this man will be revealed."

Yuna couldn't help but display a slight tinge of annoyance at Lina's response, but she let it go. It was when she remembered a certain event that was scheduled for tomorrow, could it be linked to the existence of that man?

Well, she refrained from asking any more questions and focused on healing.

For Lina, the process and everything was already becoming boring, so she decided to leave everything in Yuna's care and said goodbye to her. But before leaving she said.

"Tell that man that when he is healed, I will come for him." His eyes like those of a predator looking for her prey.

Yuna just waved and said goodbye to Lina, from that moment on everything was in her hands.

When she managed to stabilize Lakyus' condition, she then began to treat Lucius. She first analyzed her body and all the injuries, when she got the diagnosis, she realized that she could end everything simply by using healing magic.

But when she activates the healing magic and tries to direct it towards Lucius, she realizes something that has never happened before, her magic is suddenly cancelled.

She is slightly surprised, but then thinks it was a glitch or something. But when she tries to use the magic again, the same thing happens, the effect is even faster when she gets closer to Lucius.

Yuna focuses and begins to channel her magic to heal Lucius. She tries several times, but nothing seems to work. Desperate, she remembers her unique skill, "Healer", which allows her to heal any wounds or illnesses.

But it was only effective if the target was weaker than her, she knew that Lucius was strong having fought against Lakyus, so she knew that using this skill could be dangerous, but she moved forward with determination.

Finally, after a herculean effort, Yuna feels that her energy is completely depleted. She felt exhausted, but also relieved that she had managed to stabilize Lucius, even though she was more intrigued by his existence.

Why wasn't her healing magic working? Was this man doing this? Was he by any chance a real giant disguised as a human? Possibilities flashed through her mind, but she chose not to think about them too much. Yuna knows she needs to rest and regain her strength after using her unique skill on someone with magicules levels above her.

So, she makes her way to one of the nearby seats and decides to rest for a while.

......

...…

...

Lucius opens his eyes slowly, trying to remember what just happened. He feels confused and disoriented, not knowing where he is, but the walls around him remind him of Mira's chambers, only something is different.

Upon awakening, he hears a system notification stating that he has completed the mission and should reap the rewards, but decides to see the details about this later.

He tries to get up, but feels a sharp pain in his head and decides to lie down for a little while longer. The pain was in the region where the swordswoman had hit him, as he couldn't suffer physical pain, it could only mean that the pain was beyond that.

He observes the place around him and realizes that he is in a simple bed and in an unknown room. The air was heavy with an unfamiliar but somehow pleasant aroma of herbs and incense.

That's when he heard a soft voice coming from the corner of the room.

"You're awake," said the female voice.

Lucius looked toward the voice and saw a youthful, beautiful woman with shoulder-length pink hair. She was sitting in a chair and looking at him, holding a small glass vial in one hand.

"Who are you?" asked Lucius, as usual, his ability to remain unaffected helped him gather information.

"My name is Yuna, and before you ask me, you are in a treatment room in the royal palace.", replied the woman.

"I don't remember coming here," said Lucius, frowning.

"Lina-san brought you to me. You were unconscious and seriously injured, so I healed you." She said with a gentle smile.

Lucius looked down and saw that her wounds were completely healed. He then remembered the fight against the Lancer and the female swordsman who had appeared out of nowhere.

"I got involved in a life-or-death struggle," he said. "Against a crazy guy with Pikachu powers."

"I don't know what a Pikachu is. But you should try not to insult him, he's right next to you."

That's when Lucius looked up and saw a man fast asleep in a bed beside him, it was the same Lancer he had been involved in a fight with. Lucius is totally taken aback by this.

His first action after seeing the Lancer beside him is to try to get up and leave that room, fearing that something like the last time would happen if the Lancer awakened from his sleep.

But then he notices that his body is a little heavy and something still seems to be wrong, as if energy is being recovered. Yuna notices the rush and advises him to rest longer.

"You want me to just sleep next to a lunatic who nearly took my life? No thanks!" He struggles even harder, but then falls abruptly as he gets out of bed, feeling a bit dizzy.

Yuna walks over and takes him by the shoulders, returning him to the resting bed.

"Try not to move too much, your body is healed but your vitality has been consumed by excessive use of mana. You will waste my efforts to heal you, that would make me very angry." His gaze for an instant seemed as icy as the north pole, which convinced Lucius not to make any more sudden moves. "And if your concern is Lakyus-san, he won't wake up anytime soon, so rest without worrying about anything."

Lucius takes a second look at the Lancer, learning his name is Lakyus. Lakyus was sleeping so soundly that he looked like he was hibernating. So Lucius tried to stay relaxed.

With the tension gone, he thanks Yuna for the first time for healing his wounds.

"It's good that you really thank me, your life was at great risk. If they hadn't taken you to me, it's very likely that you wouldn't live to see tomorrow."

The tone in which she spoke seemed serious, so Lucius looked concerned. Which made him reflect on how he didn't care about his body being pierced by a spear several times, the lack of pain could be a kind of mental weakness after all.

Lucius thanked Yuna a second time, this time with even more gratitude in his eyes. At some point Lucius just mentioned Mira, as he hadn't seen her in a while. But at that moment, Yuna revealed a fox-like smile, as if she'd gotten the perfect opportunity to get information.

"You know, you thanked me, I like that." She smiled gently as she approached Lucius. "But I think it would help if you told me your name and talked to me for a bit, what do you say?"

Upon asking, she leans even closer and her breasts sway in an enchantingly perfect moment, it was clearly a calculated move.

Lucius blushes visibly for a second, but he tries not to get carried away by the sight and looks away. Yuna looked so much younger than him, Lucius was worried he would commit a serious crime if he continued to stare.

If he knew the truth about the High Humans outlook on life, maybe he would be a little more relaxed.

When he regains his composure, he decides to grant Yuna's request. Lucius introduces himself simply, trying not to make his introduction too long.

Upon learning her name, Yuna seems to act more at ease and somewhat more intimate with him, as if she wants to put him at ease. That's when she asks.

"Lucius-san, why is your hair black? I don't think I've ever seen anything like it."

Lucius thought it was an interesting question, not least because the people he had met so far intrigued him, such as Yuna who had pink hair. But then he remembered that he was in another world, where different cultural conflicts could occur. What was normal for him might not be for others.

Even though he was serious, Lucius responded in a joking tone.

"I think it's because I'm from another world."

Yuna can't help herself and suddenly starts laughing, she thinks this answer is very stupid and starts to see Lucius as a funny individual.

Lucius doesn't quite know how to react to that, but something that bothered him even now, was that woman swordsman who had knocked him out, Lucius couldn't forget her piercing gaze. Because of this, he ends up asking how he got to that place.

"Oh, it was Lina-san who brought you to me. Which reminds me, she said she'd come get you when your condition got better."

Lucius was confused, was there something he wasn't aware of?

"Who is this Lina? I think the only person I know is Mira."

Yuna was momentarily taken aback by the way Lucius spoke of Mira, everyone would treat Mira with some respect for being the Queen of Vanir, but this individual was simply calling her by name. Still, she tries not to directly ask why. She also understands that Lucius didn't know Lina, so she starts describing her in a way that's easy to understand.

With Yuna's description, Lucius realizes that Lina was the same swordswoman who had knocked him out the other time. Thoughts flashed through him, if Yuna had any connection to this Lina, he should be more aware of her. But his mind created a compelling narrative that allowed him to relax, maybe it was {Adaptation} at work.

Then Lucius changed the subject, focusing on how Yuna had healed him so quickly and efficiently. It was then that she began a long lecture on everything that involved the subject, her enthusiasm was to be commended.

She talked about healing magic, but the truth was, she had a unique ability related to healing, otherwise it wouldn't have worked on Lucius. But she preferred to keep that part of the story to herself.

If she initially intended to approach Lucius to get information from him, she ended up totally forgetting. Yuna had a kind of unhealthy passion for healing magic or medicine in general, so when someone showed an interest in the subject, she would lose her mind and spend hours talking about it.

What she wanted most was to ask Lucius why the healing magic wasn't working on him, but she ended up forgetting about that too.

Lucius began to regret having asked. Learning about magic was amazing, but it was already starting to feel like an extremely difficult college class, as if a single subject involved math, physics and chemistry all at once. Not to mention the elements he didn't even know about.

Without realizing it, time flew by. Lucius and Yuna were engaged in a lively conversation in the infirmary of the Royal Palace, when suddenly, the door opens and Lina walks in with her air of authority.

"He's already healed, that's perfect. I knew I could count on his healing powers." She says while looking at Yuna, who finds herself breaking out of her Sensei mode after noticing Lina's presence. She then realizes that her time has run out.

As for Lucius, he realized in an instant, it was that woman, she was back. He couldn't see it clearly the last time, but she was absolutely beautiful and her presence was more than noticeable, but the pain in her head returned as soon as she arrived. Which kept him unconsciously wary of her presence.

Yuna turns away from Lucius and starts talking to Lina. Stating that he was already healed, she should only refrain from using mana for some time. It was then that Lucius decided to say something.

"Is that Lina-san? Sorry for the inconvenience, but I can't get out of my head. Why did you attack me like that out of nowhere and then take me to the infirmary? Even worse, this guy here beside me, because he attacked me for no reason "Mira hasn't told anyone about me?"

Before answering him, Lina approaches Lucius and looks at him with her sharp gaze, but Lucius is undeterred and looks directly at her, as if to say, "I want answers."

Lina looks slightly surprised, but she sighs briefly and then says.

"You idiots were wrecking everything with your childish bickering, it was a little lesson for you not to do it again.

And I took you to the infirmary because you were left in my charge, I would be in trouble if you died."

Lucius is surprised by the answer, because from Lina's profile, he thought she wasn't much of a talker. Yuna also looks a little surprised…Not many were lucky enough to speak so boldly to that woman and survive to tell the tale. From that moment on, she identified Lucius as a brave man.

"Come with me, his highness has returned early from his trip and wishes to see you."

Without waiting for further questions or without wanting to explain further, Lina simply lifts Lucius from her bed to carry him on her shoulders, then starts to leave the room. This with an expression of indifference, as if nothing was happening.

"Hey, what are you doing??!!"

Lucius tries with all his efforts to go against this disrespectful and somewhat shameful act, but then he realizes that his strength is not enough to resist that woman.

"Help me Yuna-san!!!"

He yells for help, but Yuna just looks away and starts whistling, like it's none of her business.

It wasn't her intention to meddle in Lina's affairs, let alone someone she had just met.

With nothing he could do, Lucius was dragged from that room.

So, after the events of that day, Lucius' life was about to become even more problematic.

For by a specific event of that day, the attention of certain beings had been aroused.

The storm clouds were coming.

...…

...

Veldanava watched the human from another plane, fascinated by his unique ability, which allowed him to interact with a part of the world's voice. But that wasn't the most fascinating thing for Veldanava, as something he didn't expect just happened out of nowhere.

That was it, the time freeze.

"Hahaha, look at that! This human is really remarkable. He managed to stop time without even realizing he did it."

Veldanava continued to laugh, impressed by the human power. He knew that the ability to stop time was something only beings at the pinnacle of the world could do, but this ordinary human managed to do it with no apparent effort.

But Veldanava realized that it wasn't the human in a way. With his ultimate skill {Raphael} Veldanava realized in an instant the unique skill {Gamer}. A skill he himself admitted he didn't know, much less created. Which meant that such an ability was born from that human's desires.

Veldanava knew that the voice of the world was behind the human's ability to stop time, and that only added to his fascination with it all. The voice of the world that was an absolutely impartial being, seemed to be helping someone? This only made Veldanava even more interested in the workings of that unique skill.

With a smile, Veldanava decided to keep watching the human, with no plans to interfere for a while.

"Let's see how far you can go, human lost in time."

...

A certain fairy walks through a forest with light, graceful steps, her white hair gently swaying in the cool breeze. A grown-up beauty, her presence exuded power and majesty, emanating an aura of magical energy around her.

The rays of sunlight filtering through the canopy of trees illuminate the path in front of you, revealing the carpet of golden leaves that covers the ground. She smiles to herself, enchanted by the beauty of the forest and nature around her.

This fairy's name was Ramrys, a very special being for that world. Known as "Star Administrator" "Queen of Spirits" "Queen of Fairies" "Governor of the World" "Mother Nature". Several were the terms used to define the existence of that being, which was arguably the most powerful being that inhabited the central world.

In the midst of his walk through the forest, Ramrys ends up noticing something strange almost instantly.

Then she looks in a certain direction, as if she knows the core of it all.

Is it that human who was summoned to this world? His presence has caused waves that disturb the peace of this world, for he is not of this time.

And to think that his ability would be able to freeze time. What are you doing Veldanava, can't you see such a flaw in the system you call the voice of the world?"

She thinks about it for a while, but ends up not caring about it at all. It was her intention to meet with that human and help him stabilize in that world, she felt she had to do this as the ultimate ruler of the world, but it was mainly for the sake of balance.

"It's good that you demonstrate such potential, otherwise you would end up being devoured by this cruel world and its creatures (she speaks of everyone, no matter the race, everyone is warring like animals and Ramrys is worried that a mere human could have been beaten in the middle of it all.) wretched.

We'll see each other soon."

After saying so, she simply disappeared to some other plane of existence.

...

Twilight Valentine, this was another one who surprisingly noticed that event, even though he couldn't move in the frozen world.

But something had been telling him for some time, instinct perhaps, that something very interesting was happening. A unique experiment that had never been done before, new things to be discovered. That same instinct told him that such a being was linked to such an event.

So he can't help but get excited about it.

"Let the new experiences come."

Like a madman he grinned.

...

And finally.

It was on the highest mountain in the central world, a place that was deadly cold. The mountain slopes are covered with snow and ice, while the peak is shrouded in thick clouds. The wind howls through the cracks in the rock, bringing with it the scent of pine trees and the feeling of intense cold that cuts the skin.

As you climb the mountain, the landscape becomes more and more dramatic, with sharp peaks rising above deep valleys and frozen waterfalls adorning the rock walls. It is a place of wild and dangerous beauty, where only the bravest venture.

But the real beauty or notoriety of that place was in a certain cave somewhere.

The cave entrance was barely noticeable, camouflaged by rocks and snow, but anyone lucky enough to find it would be rewarded with a spectacular view.

The cavern was huge and spacious, with stone walls that gleamed like diamonds in the light of the flames, with luxurious halls, intricate staircases and treasure rooms, all adorned with intricate details of crystalline ice. Inside that cave, a woman was sitting on an ice throne reading a book.

Her long, pearl-white hair gleams in the cave light, and her golden eyes seem to reflect the magic that is everywhere. A grown-up and somewhat irresistible beauty. The woman is dressed strikingly, wearing a dress that appears to be made of snow-white silk, with a cape that resembles a dragon's wings.

This woman was one of the most powerful beings in existence, a true dragon. Her name was Velzard, the White Ice Dragon. She appears to be at peace, but also alert, as if she's always waiting for something.

"This is getting really good."

She was completely immersed in reading, that's when turning a page, she realized something strange: time had frozen. Velzard was perplexed and worried, as she knew that when time started flowing again, her book would be instantly destroyed.

But before she could do anything about it, it turned out to be too late.

As time began to flow again, she saw her book disintegrate in her hands. This event made her terribly angry, as reading was her most valuable hobby and that book was one of her favorites.

She flies to the top of the mountain and uses her true dragon perception to find out who is responsible for freezing time, then she discovers that the person responsible for such an event is on another continent, but that is not enough to stop her fury.

She assumes her true dragon form and goes in search of the being who dared to disturb her moment of peace.

How would all this end?

...…

...
