The next day, while Alex was playing video games in his living room, he seemed to be having difficulty on a certain level. He was visibly annoyed as he was pressing buttons on his controller. Alex's character, a guy with white hair holding a katana, was flying at incredible speeds while dodging beams of energy from a boss character that seemed to be an angel that looked almost human. The boss character was blasting beams relentlessly, while Alex's character was just dodging and cutting through the powerfull beams that were causing giant explosions. Alex seemed to be extremely focused on the game "God! They always have to make this particular level hard! I've been playing this since yesterday night!". As Alex's character was getting close enough to the boss character, ready to slice it's head off, the boss character that seemed to have grey hair and Angel wings, used one of its beams to form a sword of red energy. The boss character clashed blades with Alex's character and they both started to have a devastating but yet amazing sword clash. Alex was showing visible difficultly "This is *Battle Lords 7.* Each version of the game has better quality than the last game, the boss fights are always the hardest ones because they have double the life points and have almost every skill you have, but on steroids!". Shenragon then uttered a word "Skill issues!", he said this to prompt Alex. Alex yelled with annoyance "I DONT HAVE SKILL ISSUES!!". Before he knew it, he had lost the boss fight, Alex stared at the screen with visible shock, he then exclaimed "AHAAHA!!! I LOST AGAIN!!!". Shenragon proceeded to make fun of Alex again "I told you, didn't I? You have skill issues with this game.", Alex exclaimed with annoyance "No I don't.". Alex layed down on his couch, arms used as a pillow for his head "Hey Shenragon. You okay? I haven't heard your voice since.", Shenragon replied "What do you mean you haven't heard my voice since? We spoke althrough the final battle!.". Alex took a sigh "Yeah, we did. But still, it feels like as if I haven't heard your voice In a while.", Shenragon's voice sounded dumbfounded in a way "What are you talking about?....", he paused for a moment "Oh, I see. Time was altered, that's why it seemed like everything we've been through with the dragon kins has been a while.". Alex asked "What do you mean?", Shenragon explained to Alex "While you and Seiten fought, there seemed to have been two alternate endings. The first alternative ending was the one you already experienced. The second one is something that happened if Seiten had played things a little bit smarter.", Alex then asked "What does that have to do with time being altered?". Shenragon proceeded to explain "Alternate time lines can be defined as a possibility of something happening in another way, but in the same universe. There were two outcomes of your fight against Seiten. The first outcome is what led to this current present. The second outcome was what you observed as a dream. In short, the battle you had was so strong, both outcomes were merging together. It caused a huge effect all over existence as a whole. Diablo must have seen this and then proceeded to restart the universe In general.", this statement from Shenragon shocked Alex. Alex while being stunned asked Shenragon "So you're saying....", Shenragon completed Alex's words "Yes. What im saying is that Diablo wiped out everything, and proceeded to choose the right outcome that the universe, including the one we stay in, would have to abide too.". Shenragon took a deep sigh and told Alex "Existence wouldn't be destroyed unless Bansha.....well in this case, Diablo, deems it fit to end. And that's not going to happen at all. Existence would continue to go on.". Alex after hearing all that, had no other reaction but to just sigh "You don't say. What a nice way to spoil the peaceful mood I was enjoying.", Shenragon replied with annoyance "You're the one who asked!!", Alex replied with clear annoyance "You're the one started the conversation.". Alex and Shenragon both kept quiet, they allowed the peaceful environment around them to flow properly. Alex then said to Shenragon with a calm voice tone "Hey Shenragon?", Shenragon asked with his demon like voice sounding like an echo "What?!". Alex had a somewhat sad but relaxed look on his face "Thanks, for lending me your strength. I wouldn't have stood a chance against Cerepharot without your help.". Shenragon took a few moments to grasp the grateful words of Alex "Hmm. You are most definitely welcome, Alex boy.". Alex was just laying on his couch, allowing the breeze from the open window to blow on his face and toy with hair. As Alex was being relaxed on his couch, he heard a knock on his door. Alex opened one of his eyes "Who is it?", he stood from the couch and walked up to the door. Alex opened the door, and to his surprise, he saw a woman with a maids costume, she had bright grey hair flowing like the wind. The woman greeted "Alex Starion, i am a woman from the *Attack Clan*, I serve as a maid under the *BRIGHT STAR* house hold.". Alex thought to himself "Bright star? Isn't that Raquel's surname?", the maid then told Alex "Alex Starion, White Bright Star, leader of the *Attack Clan* house hold, wishes to have you in the White Star premises.". Few moments later, Alex was standing infront of the gates of the Bright Star mansion. Alex had a nervous smile on his face "Ahhh. Why do I feel so wierd just by being here.". Another few moments go by, and Alex is sitting adjacent to Mr White(Raquel's Father), with lydia standing right beside him. His legs were crossed and his staff was on his laps, "Alex Starion. I see you're doing well.", Alex replied with a wierd smile on his face "Good morning Mr White and Lydia. I see you both are doing well on this fine day.". Shenragon mocked Alex while laughing "HAAAAAH! He's so nervous that he started speaking formally!!", Alex yelled inwardly "SHUT UP SHENRAGON!!"
