Chapter 17: The Otherworldly Mage Who Discovers the Truth

Chapter 17: The Otherworldly Mage Who Discovers the Truth
It has to be said that this carriage is pretty fast, and before long, it arrived at the Aldermire Research Institute built on this solitary island.
After getting off the carriage, I instinctively jumped off the platform and walked down to grab the Bone Charm, but I found out...
As expected, it's gone. This damn system, besides those immovable runes and Bone Charms, the positions of these charms that you have to find yourself have all changed.
Damn dog thief!
Muttering under my breath, I climbed onto the platform and slipped through the main gate while the guards were chatting when they returned to their posts.
Using my climbing skills, I pulled myself up onto a platform next to the electric fence that blocked access to the second floor.
After following the power line, locate the position of the power source, open the lid, and take out the whale oil bottle serving as the power source. After that, the powerless grid will be shut down.
"Yes?"
"Why is the power grid shut down?"
"Is the whale oil finished?"
"I'll go and check..."
……
These guards became uneasy and alert when they saw the electric grid suddenly shut down.
However, the culprit had already bypassed them and took the elevator directly to Dr. Hibiscus's office on the 4th floor while no one was paying attention.
Ding~
"Huh? What's going on? Who's playing with the elevator?"
The sound of the elevator reaching the fourth floor immediately caught the attention of the elite guard stationed at the office entrance. He and a accompanying guard stepped into the elevator...
Cī cī~
Just as the two people had just stepped into the elevator, they were shocked and stunned by the mine next to the door.
I jumped down from the skylight on top of the elevator as if nothing had happened, and looked at the two people convulsing on the ground with a mischievous smile. Then I jumped over them and walked into Haibaxia's office.
After taking the key and glancing at the files on the table, it was learned that Haiba Xia and the administrator were both in their expected positions without any accidents. Then, take the elevator to the roof and go first to the extradimensional demon temple to obtain the rune.
Arriving at the rooftop garden, take out the crossbow in advance and shoot a guard who is gnawing on a fruit with a sleep arrow, then find the room that houses the extradimensional demon temple effortlessly, pick up the three runes placed on top of it, and the familiar pulling sensation returns~
Just arrived in the Void Realm and before I could even open my eyes, a lovely person jumped into my arms, with starry eyes full of admiration, and exclaimed:
"Wow~ You're really amazing. I can't believe I can fly around in the sky like this. Come on, confess why you, as an interdimensional traveler, are so familiar with our world."
And it seems that the supernatural creatures are also very interested in this issue, unexpectedly this time they did not stop Emily's behavior.
"Um... how should I put it, but you guys wouldn't want to know the answer to this question."
How do I even say this, let me say that they and even this world are just like a game.
What if those extraterrestrial demons can't accept it? Although others just want to escape from here and become normal people again, if you tell them that the "normal person" you want to become is actually just an "NPC"...
Then I always feel that this will cause the Demon World outside the game to become corrupted without ever seeing a fire...
Wait... I seem to have come here in a mental state... Does that mean???
！！！
Some looked fearfully at the Demon Queen from beyond the realm, only to see that she didn't seem very angry. She had a furrowed brow, as if she was contemplating and digesting the truth inadvertently revealed in my mind just now...
"Ah~"
Only saw the extraterrestrial demon who meditated for a long time sighed, helplessly said:
"I didn't expect to get such an answer ~"
"What happened to him?"
On the side, Emily saw that he suddenly seemed a little different from before, and asked me in confusion.
Without waiting for me to speak, the expression on the extradimensional demon's face became low and it was difficult to tell what he was thinking. After a while, he sighed with a hint of melancholy:
"I didn't expect this. If it's really true, then all my efforts were in vain. I escaped from one place that imprisoned me, only to be trapped in another place."
After saying that, the extradimensional demon disappeared from its original place, and both Emily and I couldn't sense where the demon had gone.
Oh no, what should we do?
Ding!!!
Warning, this world is facing the risk of collapse, and the mission is about to change!
Main Task: Preventing the imminent collapse of extradimensional demons (If existing extradimensional demons suddenly disappear, the uncontrollable Void Realm will invade the current plane world, resulting in the complete engulfment of this world by the Void Realm!)
What the f*ck?!?
Is this still the game I played?
And there's this kind of setting?
Hey, wait a minute!
A familiar sense of being pulled back suddenly emerges. As I regain consciousness and look around, I notice that things seem a bit different.
Originally, I was in the Rooftop Room at the Institute, in the Temple of Outworldly Magic. But now, Emily and I have appeared in a place I have never been to while playing a game.
Huh?
Emily and I?
I turned back?
At the same time, Emily, who had left the void realm, looked at me with surprise. Before she could say anything, a strong earthquake-like sensation struck.
Seeing intense purple-black void energy gushing up from the ground, this surging purple-black aura instantly filled the entire sky.
With the light gradually dimming, I realized that now was not the time for daydreaming. Just as I was about to say something, Emily had already grabbed my hand and started climbing far away from this ground that was also crumbling.
Oh no, now my identity has returned and it's Emily who possesses the extradimensional mark, not me. Does that make me useless now?
……(=.=)……
"What on earth is going on?"
As Emily led me to a safe place, she asked with a grave expression, gazing at the crumbling world.
"How should I put it, our mission has changed now. First of all, we need to find the magic entity outside the boundary and stabilize his collapsing mind. Because he is like a god in the realm of void, he can find a way to escape from it, but the realm of void cannot suddenly have no him."
I felt the rising aura of a queen emanating from Emily next to me, and I swallowed a gulp of saliva as I explained.
Just as I was speaking, a building had already been torn apart and the shattered stones were raining down on us.
However, Emily reacted quickly and pulled out a hand grenade. After silently counting to two, she violently threw it away and, using a grappling hook, took me away from there once again.
Bang!
The intense explosion shattered these large chunks of debris, but it seemed to trigger a chain reaction. The buildings that were still intact also collapsed, causing flying debris to be scattered everywhere.
"Hello! Traveler, you better think of a solution quickly. Although I don't know what happened, this situation must be because you let the Interdimensional Demon know some information that it shouldn't know, right?"
After all, Emily, who became queen at such a young age, instantly figured out the problem with her clear mind.
Now the urgent matter is for me, the "culprit," to think about how to handle this troublesome situation...
