Cosmic Ruler

After the graduation Nova and his small circle of friends went to park for a picnic before they will be plunged into the life of office workers.

Nova's friend group consist of Brunus a muscle guy whose might have spent 80% of his life in gym, Riveria the nerdy girl, James the rich guy, Shelly the hot chick, and lastly Noba who was the uncrowned leader of this small group.

As Nova sit on the chair old man presented to him, he couldn't help but wonder just what they have gotten themselves into.

" So, old man, where are.. " As Nova was going to ask a question, old man interrupted him.

" Let me tell you all bout me first" He said and then poured read for everyone... Magically of course.

After pouring the tea he took a sip and then said " Hmm, where should I start" He mumbled to himself.

Nova truly felt like smacking this guy head in but remembering he has magic he controlled himself.

" So, I was just cycling when suddenly I fell off a cliff and then opening my eyes I found myself in this village"

" Unlike you guys time, there was no one here who could understand me, but still as I was a genius it didn't take me long to crack their language... "

As old man boosted about himself, Nova frowned as he thought ' so, he was from Celestaria too'

"... And then I integrated in their society and also learned magic from them"

" By the way call me Mike" Old man kr Mike finished his story and then motioned Niva to ask his question.

Nova nodded and then asked " Where are we? "

" I don't know" Mike replied.

" Is this magic real Or some king of trick? " Riveria asked this time aa her eyes agone.

" It's real, even I didn't believe at first but it is real as much as real as you guys crossing that magic portal and appearing here" Mike smiled ans said.

" Can we learn magic too? " James asked, hearing his question others ears perked up too, even ova who wants to go home couldn't help but show interest.

" You can if you have aptitude for it" Mike said.

" Aptitude? " Brunus asked.

" Yes, aptitude, not all can use magic, some can only use Aura while ones who are bless by world itself can use both magic and Aura, we here call it Divine power"

" Why are we here? " Shelly asked, causing Mike to smile.

" Now that a good question" Mike said.

Shelly on the other hand felt dumbfounded, she only wants to ask how they got here but it seems this crafty old man misunderstood her question.

Still ahe didn't clear the misunderstanding, as she is now curious why this crafty old man smile like a sage just now.

" You all here to save Celestaria " Mike said, causing silence to descend.

" What do you mean? " Nova asked.

" I said what I mean" Mike shrugged.

" What's going to happen to our world? " Brunus stood up slamming his hands on the table he asked.

James grabbed him,

Mike looked at him and said " Nothing yet but in future it will be destroyed if you all dont work hard"

Hearing this Brunus got more angry but then a chop ro back of neck from Nova sent him to sleep.

" Old man explain clearly" Nova looked at him in the eyes and asked.

Mike still having his smile said " When I arrived here, I learned a interesting piece of info. "

" That Our former world will be destroyed by spawns of Destruction"

" To prevent it, the residents of that world will come to this place, it's Heart of Celestaria, here they will go through trials to acquire mystical powers be it Magic, Aura, qi Or what not" Mike said.

" I too give this trial it as you can see I failed miserably, there for I am stuck here now" Mike said as he sighed.

" Now it's you guys turn" Mike said and then a water jet from bis wand wakes up Brunus as he throw all of them to trial ground.

As Mike watched them vanish to trial ground his smile vanished replaces by deep worry and hopeful eyes, " Please finish the trial, you are the last chance we have" He said as he look above Or specifically at the newly formed Portal to different cor er of their Universe.

" They will be coming soon" He mumbled as he begin to wait for the Nova group.

Nova and his friends opened their eyes and found themselves into a pure whit room.

They looked around but wasn't able to find anything else.

" What do you think will be the trial? " James asked.

" I don't know but if there is even 1% chance that old man saying is true we better clear this trial and acquire the powers we need to defend our world" Noba said solemnly as he remembered his mother and his sister.

He clenched his hands but the worries in his heart wasn't able to ease even a bit.

Shelly placed her hands in his shoulders, to calm him.

Nova took a deep breath and thankes her.

And then suddenly 5 doors manifested in front of them.

The doors were of many colors, and each door have a name on it.

" I guess our trials are beyond those doors" Riveria said excitedly as she hopped to her door and went inside of it.

Nova and others looked at each other and opening their doors they too went in.

*****

Mike watched as Eldritch after destroying all other planets are now moving towards Celestaria.

He sighed as he looked back, " Did they fail? " He mumbled and sit on the couch.

He watched as Eldritch destroyed one continent and then moved to another.

" I guess our last chance also.. " As he was sighing he suddenly looked back and saw Nov and bia friends returning.

He looked at them and then before they could say anything he created golden portals and shouted " Quick they are here and killing everyone"

Nova hearing this with out a second thought jumped into the portal and just he emerged he saw Eldritch killing a Mother and her child, anger surged inside gim as his hands fit engulfed in Divine power and he punched straight, sending a vaccum wave punch power by Divine power, blowing the head of Eldritch to smithrens while the accompanying wind sent his body flying.

Seeing this other Eldritch rushed ro him but he easily dispatched them using a blade shrap edges shield.

And during this moment others also crossed the portal.

Seeing the site before them plunged them into despair but Niva released a burat of Divine power that took the form of lion, as he used art of Lion Courage to wash away the despair from his friends heart.

Noba felt bad for manipulating his friends emotions but he himself was not left with any choice.

He even uses it on himself to prevent himself from suddenly remembering his Mother and Sister while fighting.

Taking a deep breath Nova ked hia friends to fight with Eldritch.

It was an gruesome battle with Nova and Shelly being the sole survivors, even then Nova had lost his left hand while Shelly had lost her legs.

But as they lay on the ground they have smiles on their faces as they have killed all the invaders while Mike closed the portal using this time.

He sighed in relief, as closed the portal.

He then looked at Nova and Shelly and nodded to them.@@novelbin@@

Seeing Mike both Nova and Shelly fell asleep, knowing their work is done.

Mike healed them but he frowned as he wasn't able to generate their limbs.

" It seems their wounds are corroded by Eldritch energy" Mike mumbled and then looked at the horizon as he saw various armed vehicles coming their way.

" We Humans never learn" Mike frowned and then readied his wand for another confrontation.

Looking at the inbound army he thought they are now here to kill both Nova and Shelly, knowing they will not be able to control them.

He watched as armed vehicle surrounded them and then various energy shields formed a dime around them.

He tightens hia wand as a vehicle started opening but then the sight left him dumbfounded when he saw Doctors coming out of the vehicle.

" Quickly save the Heroes" Someone shouted,

Mike looked at him, " He seems to be in power"

He mumbled and then the leader started coming his way. Enjoy exclusive adventures from My Virtual Library Empire

Despite seeing Doctors taking care of Niva and Shelly, he stood beside them.

The leader soon reached him and then bowed to him.

Mike eyes blinked in confusion at the sudden weird behaviour of the leader.

" Tha kyou for saving us" He said, as others followed his suit.

Mike nodded and jokingly said " Phew, you guys got me worried there for a second, I thought you guys are here to kill us"

" Hahahah.. Haa" Mike laughed only to stop as he saw others seriously looking at him.
