Chapter 2: Person under the banyan tree.
Blurriness shrouded Kiesh's vision as if a veil of water had covered his eyes. As that illusory curtain began to descend, the surrounding environment became clear to him.
The very first thing he sensed was some glowing particles coming together to form his body parts one by one, constructing it from scratch on a soft cushion made of white wool material it was like he was sitting on a cloud.
"I am really on a cloud!"
Despite the odd and chaotic events, Kiesh felt calm.
A soothing air tended to him, helping him understand his situation more clearly.
He was not in danger; that much was sure.
And then it became clear to him that he was sitting in a lotus position on a cloud mat in the middle of the sky, while a breeze containing leaves passed in front of him, reaching out to a banyan tree present in front.
This banyan tree stood in the middle, reaching up to the sky, surrounded by white clouds.
The trunk was thick, spreading in nearly a 20-meter radius. At the bottom of this tree, instead of roots, there was a circulating platform constructed; the tree trunk was the centre of it.
A human figure was sitting under the branches on that platform.
He had a neatly cut beard reaching up to his neck, and long hair neatly tied into a bun atop his head.
That person was wearing a dark orange piece of cloth crossing over from one of his shoulders to the waist, and another was wrapped on his leg making loose pants.
He was the origin of the soothing air; the person's aura carried an effect of calming people's minds, letting them understand and be in a clear psyche.
Kiesh wanted to ask this person about his current position. After all, he was confused with sudden transportation just moments ago he was sitting with his sister and now he is here in this foreign land.
That aside, his clothes were changed, it seems someone stole them.
He proceeded to move his mouth, but before he could do so, the enigmatic figure sitting in front of him on that wooden platform moved his arms and murmured something.
Suddenly, blinding light surrounded Kiesh from every direction. It was like beacons had been placed there before he could understand more; these light particles started to come together to form more clouds little by little kids were surrounded by them chandelle same as him were sitting
These newly arrived people were human, all of them wearing simple white shirts and brown pants, just like Kiesh. One by one, the group of clouds present in the middle of the sky where Kiesh was sitting started to fill with people sitting in lotus positions.
All of their ages varied from 17 to 21, Kiesh being 20. After a total of 51 individuals appeared in that place, then suddenly, the person sitting under the banyan tree opened his eyes.
And after that, a translucent screen greeted Kiesh.
[Welcome into the world of Mrityu.]
Not only the spell greet Kiesh, but another voice echoed, originating from the mysterious figure under the banyan tree, who was not so mysterious after he spoke.
"I, Rishi Bhrigu, welcome the denizens of Earth and the original people from the human alliance," said Rishi Bhrigu.
"Are you the one who controls Maya?" one of the people present in the crowd asked.
Before the question could sink into people's minds, another one was present.
"Why did you kidnap us?"
"Why are you disturbing peace on Earth?"
"When will you stop this infection?"
More and more people voiced out their displeasure, completely oblivious to the fact that Rishi Bhrigu had summoned them with just a simple gesture and with the same he could wipe them out.
Who could blame them when Rishi Bhrigu himself allowed these questions to ring out? He even chuckled, he had gone through with the same scene multiple times and each time It never failed to amuse him.
But some people were displeased with their questions; these were the ones sitting at the front row of the cloud nearest to the enigmatic figure of Bhrigu.
Although there was no difference in clothing, the air and demeanour were completely different. These were individuals from human alliance.
"Silence! Do you not have any idea you are in the presence of one of the Rishi, a great sage who nurtures thousands and oversees the world's education? You peasants from have no manners!!"
"Hahaha, "Rishi Bhrigu again chuckled at the banter of people. It was all familiar to him.
"Duryo Dhan, you do not have to meddle in this matter."
Duryo Dhan became silent and waited for Rishi Bhrigu to talk.
"Let me explain the basics. First of all, I am not the one who has control over Maya. Nobody can."
"Maya is a mysterious entity of its own. Sometimes it's sentient, sometimes it's not. The only thing I can tell you is that Maya is the one who oversees the cosmos. It expands with each passing second, embracing another galaxy into it. Earth and Cultivator galaxies are among these."
"And second, who summoned you here? Well, I did it. I used the great strength of Maya to accomplish it."
"The reason behind all this is for your benefit. This year, we are summoning disciples from galaxies under the Human Alliance to prepare them for battles against the Asuras in Cosmic play, and this time, we've included the galaxy of Earthlings in it."
Although the elder's words flew over the heads of the 10 Earthlings present, they remained calm due to the mysterious power surrounding them. However, they were still unfamiliar with their surroundings.
All 10 humans from Earth had been simply going about their daily lives when suddenly, a timer screen from Maya appeared in front of their eyes and transported them to this enigmatic place.
When bombarded with unfamiliar concepts, like "Alliance," "Play," and "Race," the Earthlings were extremely confused. They grappled with the meanings behind these terms and their implications.
"Elder, can you tell us what this Human Alliance, Asuras, and Cosmic play are?"
Hearing the voice of an unknown man, Rishi answered.
"Very well, let's have a brief introduction.
"There are various galaxies in the cosmos, each having their specialities and problems. For us humans, who are not a Cosmic race, what's catastrophic is the presence of Asuras.
Asuras are the ranked 7th Cosmic race. Their specificity is corruption. Because of their nature, they need to corrupt both living and non-living thing to survive, thus they actively seek lands to siege wars against.
That's where Cosmic play comes in with plays that serve as the stage for regulated wars and battles to claim the resources all under the guidance and watchful eyes of Maya.
Now, to combat the Asuras, the human galaxy from this part of Mrityu Lok joined forces to form an Alliance, which includes Mage galaxies, Cultivator galaxies, warrior galaxies, and cyborgs galaxies.
Knows as a human alliance!
When your galaxy is fully integrated into the Maya, you will delve deeper into its intricacies. For now, let's focus on the basics: Earthlings are here to be nurtured and introduced to the supernatural So, when Asuras challenge you for land, you'll be prepared to fend off.
Any further inquiries?" Rishi Bhrigu smiled, inviting another Earthling to ask.
"Elder, I would like to know why you are helping us people from the earth. I find it a bit suspicious for you to lend us a hand and teach us the way of cultivation… huh… I mean, in today's world no one offers their service for free… so there has to be an underlying motive behind your act."
Every Earthling present sitting at the back in the last row turned to Amanda, a total of 10 pairs of eyes.This this question was not the one they were expected from fellow Earthlings
