Chapter Ten [I]

Elicaria accompanied Grian to his base to catch up on him, he did tell her what happened and was horrified at what she had learnt. She excused herself when she got a message and bid Grian goodbye for the time being.

"Are you returning?" Eli asked as she got ready to teleport away.

Grian went silent but nodded. "I cannot return as a full duty Primal like you, but I'm here to help,"

"Thank you," Eli smiled, and she disappeared, teleporting away to the Admin HQ.

"Hey Xavy, do you know the weird things that were appearing on Ryder and Lilith?" Grian asked, rummaging through his shuker box to get some of the blocks for building his mansion.

"A dimension curse, it is pretty common in players, it allows players to hop through the dimensions without the side effects. But in their case, their curse is amplified by some cause that I don't know, maybe because they are Watchers,"

"I see..." Grian looks over to see a note attached to one of his stray shulker boxes. Grian took cautious steps as he gently tore the paper away from the shulker box. The thin piece of paper had a particular frame that was slightly burnt, he could smell the slight hint of smoke from the paper as he brought it close to examine it.

"They wrote it in galactic...Xavion help," Grian wines as he sat down on one of the shulker boxes; Xavion looked at the note as he frowned, seemingly to reread it multiple times before sighing.

"It says: 'Hello there Xelqua, Let's meet at the server border to discuss this situation as I have to fill Eli on this. See you at midnight, Ryder',"

Grian stared at the note in silence, Xavion looked at him for his response as Grian sucked a breath and sighed, hanging his head down as he took deep breaths.

"Another hassle that I have to take care of," Grian mummers as he leaned back tiredly, inhaling the smell of fresh leaves mixed with the earthy soil, the warm breeze pricked his unclothed skin as he shivered from the cold.

Xavion nodded, agreeing with Grian choice, "Lilith would strike at any moment, and even if you go full out, the chances of you winning are slim as we both know you aren't the most consistent in PVP," Grian huffed at this, rolling his eyes.

"Yeah right," Grian chuckles under his breath, sending Xavion a playful glare. Grian stood up as he patted down his red sweater, tossing some of his items lazily into an empty chest.

"Ready Gri?" Xavion asked as Grian was typing away on his communicator, Grian nodded and pressed a button on his communicator.

Grian opened his eyes slowly, blinking a few times to get used to the darkness of the surroundings, it was dead silent as he cringed at the ringing pain in his ears.

"I see you have accepted my invitation," A throaty voice of the Watcher could be heard, Grian squinted at him as he saw another figure appearing behind.

"Xelqua, this is Xerneous. He is the brother of your fellow Admin Xisuma," Ryder monotone but deep voice could be heard as though he was twenty blocks away. But in reality, he was most probably five blocks away.

"What are you," Grian accidentally blurted out, looking at Xerneous(EX) who crossed his arms as he gave an unamused look. Grian realised what he said and looked around quickly while chuckling sheepishly; mentally screaming at himself for being that rude.

Xerneous looks like any ordinary player, but he had an onyx coloured mark on his cheek that was usually covered by his helmet. His white hair was still stained in blood. He, unlike his brother, did not have the wings.

"No need to apologise, I am one of the few that have been badly affected by the dimension curse, but I'm more like Sabien over there, quote on quote 'tethered' to an actual player," He shrugged, red eyes examining what Grian was wearing. Grian took a look at Sabien, who was reading a book. He was mostly transparent like Xavion, but he was not linked to any object.

"I have not heard of those tethered players, mind explaining?" Grian asked.

"They are usually called alts. They are 'tethered' to the players, you could say they are twins at heart. They usually aren't active in servers and chill at the border, but most of the time they are very distant," Elicaria said, nearly making Grian jump at her sudden appearance.

"So, how are we going to do this..." Ryder starts, his dead voice on the void of emotion as usual as he eyed the two Admins.

"Well..." Eli started.

Xisuma took a glance at his communicator, to see the hermits looking for Grian to apologise but was nowhere to be seen. Xisuma growled in frustration as he slumped in his chair, where could Grian have gone to? It says he is on the server, but apparently, he is nowhere to be seen. Xisuma put on his helmet as he walked out of his base. And was about to leave when Grian landed in front of his base.

"Oh hi X-eye-suma," Grian smiled, Xisuma lets out a sigh of relief. 'Thank goodness you did not go missing. Lilith has already given me a heart attack.' Xisuma grumbles to himself again, he was still exhausted from just managing the server alone, working on his base is another thing.

"Hi, Gri, the hermits have been looking for you," Xisuma yawns, stretching his ruffled wings as it soon went limp by his side; he was too exhausted to try and suppress his magic, and it was clear he had a few intense of magic outburst at the absence of his gloves. Exposing the magic burn marks on his palms.

"Ah, I see. Xisuma, you should sleep, your wings are giving away your condition." Grian says as he walks up to the Admin, lightly pushing him back into his base. Xisuma was too tired to be surprised Grian did not purposely butcher his name and allowed the shorter to lead him back into the room he was 'stuck' in for hours.

"Alright X, you better sleep. I'm off." Grian smiles as he takes off in his elytra, the sound of rockets ringing in Xisuma's ears as he slipped off his helmet as it clattered on the ground. He sighed again as he laid on his bed and was consumed by darkness.

"GRIAN!" Xavion shouted at the hermit who noticed a sudden shot of an arrow that nearly hit him.

"Goodness me I'm so sorry, Grian!" He turned to see False running up to him, Grian gave her a forgiving smile.

"Oh, have you seen the messages some of the hermits sent you?" False tilted her head as she kept her bow in her inventory. Grian shook his head, giving her a blank look.

"Oh." Was the only response False muttered, looking dumbfounded. "Well I suggest you do, they are freaking out." She lets out a nervous chuckle.

"Ah. Will do False! Have' ta go." Grian smiles as he walks away towards his massive mansion. False stood there for a good second, shrugging as she took off in her elytra.

"Grian, are we planning to meet them there? We have two minutes to do so," Xavion says as Grian looked through the messages, replying to their apology. Grian kept quiet as he let his brown hair fall messily as it obstructed his view.

"I guess so," Grian mumbles as he takes another look at his communicator, before shutting it off. And sat down. Gently plucking the green grass as the smell of fresh soil reaches his nose.

"How I wish it was not always a rollercoaster of events, I just want to sit back and chill out for a bit." Grian sighs, Xavion said nothing as Grian waved his hands, the royal yellow of Admin magic danced around his hands as he disappeared.

"You have returned. How did it go?" Ryder commented, eyeing the Primal who no longer suppressed his magic. Grian eyes were beautiful cerulean blue that outlined his hazel brown eyes he had. He still had his messy, teak brown hair. "Oh, yea Eli went to do some last-minute Admin things, poor her,"

"I see, so let's continue with our conversation. Thank you, Xerneous, for telling me about their sudden search for me. Now, about our infiltration on the base." Grian switched to serious mode, it was not a joke when messing with the magic of the Universe they have been gifted.
