A few minutes later, after her lonely eating event which was as gloomy as the gray clouds, Venus is already in Tanjung Beach, not far from where she ate before. The girl sits on one of the fallen trees. Beside her, grew a few trees that she didn't know exactly what their name was. A breeze brings with its salty scent of sea water, lulling the mind of anyone who inhales it. The fishy smell of the sea can be faintly wafted from the murky shoreline.

Venus turned her head and saw several people kneeling on the shore some distance from her. Three small children seemed to be chasing each other. Their laughter was carried along by the wind, even as they plunged into the rather murky water. Those on their knees seemed to be digging for sand and occasionally stuffing things into containers such as plastic bags or jars. Venus guessed they were looking for mussels. One of them turned to look at her. The woman seemed to grin. It's hard to see the details of a person's face at that distance.

Venus sighed. Her eyes turned to the horizon. Her mood became much calmer. We, however, know, that no matter how calm a sea is, it’s never truly open. We know that the sea can and is accustomed to lying. It is calm, so full of beauty. Things that is full of blue and the variety of underwater creatures. The things that the sea makes to distract us from the trough of its deepest heart and, if the sea can't take it anymore, they can vent their emotions in a million ways.

What can Venus do anyways? The girl's emotional overflow will never be useful. Often she shouted in anger and frustration that struck, only to get ignorance. The girl still had a father, but the father she thought must be living in the gauze of death. Venus doesn't remember feeling the warmth of a father that should be in the man, no matter how small, ever. Venus doesn't remember the figure just hugging or calling her "dear" or something. Venus doesn't remember at all.

Her eyes flickered as a tear fell down her cheeks. Her hand suddenly reached into the bag and took something. Her tears flowed again, mercilessly hurting the girl's esophagus with an invisible stone.

A photograph.

In the hard plastic-coated sheet, portrayed a woman in a red dress standing in a room. Her face was beautiful, her smile was contagious and her eyes looked so happy. Venus caresses the image of the woman's long hair in the photo. The girl's fingers trembled. She embraced the photo in her arms. Her tears rose in the form of sad sobs.

It’s just a photo, for God's sake.

“Mama, what should I do?”

    Venus is still there when the sky began to turn orange. She no longer cried. The object she is still holding had given its own strength to her. It was only a photograph, but Venus always learned many things from it as if her mother's soul live there, always there whenever Venus needs. Suddenly a voice startled her. The attention of the girl was momentarily diverted. She tilted her head to listen more closely. It was very clear that the girl's hearing wasn't wrong. However, she wasn't sure. The sound was like the sound of something spinning. Venus kept looking back and forth then found something behind her.The girl looked down; maybe a little too narrowed eyes.From among the deciduous shrubs, a spiral black color appeared. The object continued to spin with a very slow hum. Venus blinked, trying to understand what she was seeing. Venus tilted her head slightly. She would be ashamed of herself if that thing suddenly decided to attack her nose.Venus turned around while putting her moth

Instead, Venus took a deep breath and exhaled slowly despite shaking.Then, Death embraced her.Venus's neck began to suffocate by the chain of nothingness. At first, sl

    Venus woke up as her body slid out of what felt like a sliding tube. Or at least she thought so. Venus stepped on the ground unsteady, and would have fallen down if there were no hands to help her. Venus looked at the ground she was walking on with a happy face.“Wow, I'm not going to die!” said Venus happy while smiling broadly, simplifying the true feeling of her happiness.Venus looked at the white circle where she came out. The glowing circle was now gloomy. Venus looked up and found only darkness. Her eyesight turned to the two people who helped her; a man with a fierce expression and a friendly-faced woman. The woman smiled. Venus had never seen them before.“What is this?” Venus asked doubtfully. “Is this… some kind of new technology that anyone can order?”The fierce man replied rather irritably, “I don't know what you mean! Just for information, this is not your Earth! This is the world of volts, Miss, and now you stand under the Black Porch.”Venus gawk. Which area is it from

    A few minutes later they arrived in front of the open black gate. The door is too small compared to the wall, but also larger than the gate in general. In front of that door, stood a short guy with a face like a baby.“Hey, where is the Portal Keeper who is supposed to drop you off?” Lan asked worriedly.The boy slipped his hand in his pants pocket. “His friend who was guarding the portal was in trouble, so he told me to wait here and join other guards if anyone passed,” t

    Venus thought they would also be delivered into the building after Meres opened the door. However, it turns out there is someone who has been waiting behind the door to greet, or rather, trying to intimidate them. That person is a middle-aged man with a big and muscular body. His gaze was so cold with his lips that were always puckered. In Venus's eyes, Meres seemed even friendlier than this person.“Is it over?” the man asked Meres in a deep voice.Meres just nodded, and then he left

    “Ahem!”Shocked, Venus turned around and saw a burly boy standing beside Virzash. The stranger's face was quite childish, but Venus didn't consider him like a baby at all. His skin is a little dark. Her slightly brown hair was cut in such a way, with a middle part and bangs. As far as Venus is concerned, it was the style of Korean idols on the First Earth. There was a suspicious red stain on the front of his plain white shirt.In essence, that guy already looks cool without having to

    Mrs. Mana scans her tablet with concentration, and then starts to call out the names of the new kids randomly. The first kid is called Kirka Sorawa. The girl was small and thin, with a typical freckled face. She walked stumbling and almost tripped on the podium, though Venus estimates that the height of the podium was not until a span. Venus was so tense, that even her scalp felt itchy. It is really annoying.“Stand in the center, darling,” said Mrs. Mana pretentiously sweet.Kirka ne

    She was a woman who looked so graceful. Her face was like the moonlight in the night: soft, beautiful and radiant. Her hair was jet black; even so, streaks of gray were clearly visible in her hair that hung down to her back. Her fingers were slender and smooth, her body was in a pale blue silk dress; she is like the image of a goddess in the past. When she turned around, a smile crossed her face. However, you could not help but see how sad her eyes seemed to be. A middle-aged man came up to her. His body is sturdy and the destiny of the life he lives makes his expression in such a way: flat, unreachable. However, when he saw his wife smiling, that face was no longer frozen. A smile now broke the violence on his face. This man, without saying anything, took the woman in his arms, caressing the back of the figure he loved so much. In the silence of the night, on a quiet hill and among the singing of the crickets that seemed to chime in rhythm, they were silent, hugging and enjoying t

    "Vina, do you want to change your name?" the man asked her seductively. "Why do you look so displeased when I call you by your name?""Shut up!" Vina snapped. "I can't possibly change the name my mother gave me!"The man in front of her just smiled and then just walked away from in front of her.Vina Hansen sighed. She hopes to tell her readers that she is a realistic person even though she likes to fantasize. However, what was she supposed to say other than that her brain might have been damaged and she was having severe hallucinations? Maybe it is just a sad nightmare, maybe it's a reality that only exists in the minds of lunatics. Vina could almost imagine how the readers raised their eyebrows with disapproval expressions at her.They should know I am sighing by now, she thought.She really wants to type a status on her social media that she is not a good person who should take up the valuable time of her readers.Vina is a girl, twenty years and three months old, who had never act

    In the end, Vina did not fantasize that day. Instead, she immediately took her dirty clothes in the laundry basket and went to the well behind her house. She does not have a washing machine to be able to wash clothes automatically; at least she could not afford it just yet. Every time she had planned in the previous month to buy a washing machine, for some reason there was always another, more important plan in the next month. She couldn't blame anyone for that. After all, it was her own brain that had such plans. She used to think about buying a washing machine, but then finally decided that buying land and building a house was more important than that. Barely a year later, had her plan worked. Her house is small and simple, roomy enough for just two adults like Vina and her mother to live. However, she is a human; Vina sometimes has dreams of renovating her house to be even better. Fortunately, for her, she has a little common sense to prioritize work so that she earns more, so sh

    Her arm was still throbbing in pain. She was trying her best not to cry; she had never been hurt so seriously in her life. The worst she has ever had was a scratch, just a little scratch. However, what one of the Seven Beauties said just now seemed to stop the pain for an instant… only a moment, because a split second later the feeling hit her again. Like crashing waves crashing against rocks, then blown by the wind that comes so fast from the middle of the sea. Vina realized that people who dream wouldn't realize that they are dreaming… and cannot feel the pain from a wound. The girl froze as she grimaced, glancing at the seven women in front of her as well as Xingsheng who looked just as surprised as she was. The Chinese actor pinched himself and his expression twisted slightly and then froze, just like her. "What the hell are we going through right now?" Vina hissed at Xingsheng, between bewilderment and anger. She gritted her teeth as she bent slightly against the pain in her a

    Xingsheng almost lunged at Astha as she thrust the silver dagger straight into Vina's gaping wound. However, the other six women held his efforts back. Surprisingly, Xingsheng's strength really doesn't match them, even though the Chinese actor has a fairly muscular body and often does weightlifting. "What did you do to her?" Xingsheng shouted angrily. The man's anger became more and more unbearable when Vina kept screaming in pain with her body limp, but for some reason it seemed as if she couldn't get up from her current position. "Stop it, you bunch of bastard!" Vina cursed loudly until her voice was hoarse. "Stop!" Astha, the woman with sharp narrow eyes, didn't pull the dagger she stuck into Vina's arm nor plunged deeper into it. She just left the dagger there, her hand raised to chest level, right above the girl from Siji's body. What she did was to prevent Vina from getting up from her current lying position, as well as to minimize the rebellion from the girl's body. Thus,

    "You speak so confidently, as if you've experienced this before," Vina squinted, her eyes fixed on the patch of clouds in the sky that was visible from the open ceiling. Liu Xingsheng half turned his head and let out a sound like he was chuckling softly. He moved to lift the bamboo chair with light steps, but had to be surprised and almost fell backwards because it turned out that the object to sit on was quite heavy. He wondered why that was. The man glanced over, but Vina didn't seem to notice him. He let out an imperceptible sigh of relief. "Well," Xingsheng mumbled lowly, his muscles bulging slightly as he returned to where Vina was lying carrying the bamboo chair. "I have to admit, I've never had anything quite like this happen, but I've been imagining, speculating, whatever you say; and it turns out to be facing something that makes me… kind of dumbfounded. Although what I suspected wasn't something bad." Vina turned her head to the side when she heard Xingsheng lower the ch

    "You can't just walk into a room and say you want to kill someone all of a sudden just because they didn't say their name," said Vina flatly but piercingly. "Vina!" Xingsheng warned quietly. The emaciated man looked at her so sharply. "You could say that if I really were your enemy right now." Xingsheng frowned with a questioning expression. "Who are you?" The man as pale as a corpse walked over. Vina couldn't help but think about how the steps taken by that figure could seem so heavy, even though his body looked like it was only made up of bones. She blinked in surprise, as the figure got closer to them. The small rod with the sharp tip seemed to glisten slightly as the light from the open ceiling hit it. It was made of metallic iron; looks small, but dangerous if the wearer knows how to use it. The figure suddenly pointed its eccentric weapon towards Liu Xingsheng's neck, to which he half raised his hand, alarmed by the threat of the strange man in front of them. "I'll ask you

    Nawa closed the door of the Hall of Beauty slowly, then turned to Heuras and smiled sweetly. The emaciated man who had just received a smile from one of the Seven Beauties simply nodded, while he sat on the ledge leaning against the post, his hands tightly gripping the iron rod. "You shouldn't be so nice to them," Heuras muttered in a deep voice, but it sounded so bitter to Nawa's ears. The mature woman who had a near-perfect stature walked over. She stood in front of Heuras, her hands on the ledge, her head tilted up, gazing affectionately at the cornflower blue flowers. Nawa finally looked down again after a while, and then looked at the man who was as pale as a corpse calmly. "Father doesn't have to worry like this all the time. They, however, wouldn't have ended up like this if Lord Immortal hadn't committed this crime ever again." Heuras, Nawa's biological father, snorted as sarcastically as he could. He gripped his sharp iron rod tightly. "Why do you go along with calling hi

    "That much?" Xingsheng exclaimed in surprise. "And they… Lord Immortal brought them all here?" The three Beauties nodded slowly. However, a few seconds later, the petite woman in the orange dress shook her head. Her facial expression was neutral. "If only the Portal could be closed forever," the woman said, her eyes staring into empty air, "Lord Immortal wouldn't be able to do this anymore." "I don't understand," Vina interrupted suddenly. They all looked at her. "I mean, this guy did a lot of evil deeds, didn't he? Why do you have to address him so respectfully like that?" The three Beauties looked at each other in three directions. Vina rather wanted to feel what it was like to glance at each other in three directions. Again, the woman in the orange dress answered, while Nawa could only smile awkwardly and Astha didn't put any expression on her face. "He has a special relationship with the royals," she said in a casual tone. "You can't go too far or you will lose your head."
