Now what?

The person said

"Now I grant you 3 wishes or 3 power whatever you need"

Hikaru stares at the person's face and says "what....why?"

The person gets a little close to hikaru and says

"because they might come in help to you for full filling my request.its not a simple world like you are living in now, magic and other things are basic things there in the world i am sending you to,the concept of mana,power scale,nobel families, and kingdom control by the king are also present in that world,

ah.. but don't worry it's not like i am sending you to fight some powerful magician there,you just have to save an old woman there and that's my only wish"

Hikaru was trying to process all this, a questions pops up in hikaru mind and he quickly ask the person

"You will send me to another world right"

"Yes. A whole another world different from yours"

Hikaru ask another follow up question

"Then will I be able to come back from that world to my original world?"

The person replies "sorry but that can't be possible"

Hikaru gets scared and says

"th...then I don't want to do this.my sister will be alone in that house even if you have cured her illnesses i don't think it will be that easy for her to keep living without anyone to depend on and we also doesn't have any money so she needs to find a stable job but due to cancer she wasn't able to go to any university,

she has to work part time her whole life for what reason, just to not die of hunger? She doesn't have anyone with whom she can spend her time with, rant about her worries, her friends are already at a settled family they will not be able to support her that much. What will be the reason for her to live in the world, not to mention my sudden disappearance will also confuse her and she will start looking for me and I will not be found by her because I will not be present in the world, so she will chase a goal which she will never be able to achieve.There are to many negative point for me in this deal, my main goal to free her from her suffering will not be achieved, can't there be any solution to this?"

The person says with sad tone

"I understand that. But I am sorry I have already full filled my end of deal to save your sister from any further damage dealt by the disease and cure her from it, she not completely cured at the moment but will slowly be able to recover, so the deal is already set in motion now you have no other choice but to full fill your task" and he stares in hikaru eyes

He thinks he has no other choice but to hope that she finds something better than searching for her brother which can keep her going.

"Then I don't need any of your wishes. What will be the meaning of me living on those wishes if I have nothing to look forward, to keep me going for"

The person catches the words 'don't need any of your wishes' and it makes him smile.

"That's a good idea……. yes, it can help both you and me"

Hikaru looks at the person,

"What do you mean?"

The person raise his hands hand, point finger at his own head

"You have given me a good idea. Maybe it can work. Thanks ah…. what's your name”

" it's hikaru"

The person then bows and says

"Thank you sir hikaru! you may call me Aki"

Hikaru asks

"Aki, did you find a solution?"

Aki replies

"I will allow you to take your sister with you in my world as your one wish ,then you won't have to worry about your sister and you will still have reasons to live for."

Hikaru smiles like he found a ray of hope and says

"OH! Why didn't I think of that?"

Aki looks at hikaru smile , then says

"Ah! You care too much for your sibling what an adorable view"

Aki clicks his fingers and calls yuki in the white area. When yuki appeared there she fell down on the floor. Hikaru stares at yuki while being surprised, He hugs her while asking

"Yuki! Are you okay? Why do you look so much younger? What did you do aki?"

Aki approaches towards them and says

"It's was necessary to treat her illnesses she turned back to 17 years by the way you are also turned back to 17 years because of summoning her here"

Hikaru asks " Aa…. Ok but why 17?"

Aki replies "it was the age where she still wasn't much affected by the disease and had lower no of cancerous cells I can't reverse her age more because I don't have that much of power,i have cast a spell which will help her healing and fighting the cancerous cell and making her body fully fit and fine”

Yuki who was listening to them talking pushes away her brother and says

"Who is he brother? And where are we? And why don't I feel my legs? I can't move them"

Hikraru looks at Aki seeking an answer.

"There are many things I also don't understand, for example there is also a half beast present here but you can't see and hear him. I also thought it was strange. But rest assured your sister's legs will be able to work again like normal in some time, I promise you."

Hikaru sighs in relief, then asks yuki

"Are you okay?"

Yuki replies "ah. Yes, except for the legs, I can't feel them, but explain to me brother what is this place and where are we?"

Then Hikaru explains everything to Yuki from the beginning. Then yuki asks

"I am thankful for the fact that you helped me but I don't understand if you are that powerful. Why didn't you help the person you want to save yourself?"

Aki replies

"Both me and the half beast here, were sacrificed by a person in my world, by time we knew we were here in this white area. And a voice echoed saying summon the one you want and give them 3 wishes. We started seeing people from your world.

Now then tell, me your 2 wishes or power whatever you need'

Hikaru thinks for a minute then asks

"Is there any time limit or like you can only give me the power while I am here or before going to your world?

Aki replies "No, you can ask me to give you power whenever you want, i think."

Hikaru says "Then I want to put it on hold. I will think about what type of power I want and ask you to grant me it whenever I feel necessary.”

Aki replies "ok. A nice decision you made there."

In Hikaru mind another question came so he asks

"What about my sister she will also need power to protect herself in that world"

Aki replies" don't worry you both will have the power to control the mana in the surrounding, and use spells etc. Not everyone can do that in my world but you will be able to due to getting caught in this summoning."

Hikaru and Yuki stand up.

Aki asks them,

"Then shall we go to your world"

Hikaru and Yuki nod in agreement.

Aki walks a little forward and says "we are going to fall, get ready" and claps his hands.

They start falling downward as looking up, seeing the white room going far away. Hikaru holds Yuki thinking they might fall from great height on the ground so to not get hurt he carries Yuki in her arms.Then they slowly see a light approaching them and they slowly fall on the land of another world, the world where Aki lived.

The first thing Hikaru and Yuki saw when they opened their eyes was the sight of an old lady sitting on the ground under a tree which had white leaves and black flowers at the ends. It was an open area, nothing was in sight other than that tree and the old lady.

Aki was there with them floating in the sky. He notices the lady and shouts loudly towards hikaru and yuki

"It's her! You have to save her."

Hikaru carries yuki and heads toward the Old lady.

The old lady sees them approaching towards her and she asks them "do you need something from me mister?"

Hikaru said "we.. We are here to save you”

And puts down yuki under the tree near the old lady

A little far away from them,from the ground a creature made of skeleton Yuki and Hikaru never seen before starts coming out from the ground.when he comes up on the surface the atmosphere of that area changes fully. It went from day to night there was nothing visible in the sky neither moon nor stars.

The skeleton was wearing a white robe covering his shoulder and arms while only his stomach area and legs were visible. He didn't had hips,in place of them there were spinal cord bones which were a little bigger and coming out front side while coiling upon it self like a sea horse tail, he had three face skeleton of different styles one at top, one at middle and one where the spinal cord starts coming out in front and gets bigger and bigger.

Aki shouts at hikaru" this is bad news you have to do something quickly before he takes any action or you are doomed"

Hikaru replies with confusion

"But what do I do? I can't ask you for any power because I still don't know anything about him so I don't want to make a wrong decision,ah...what about a spell tell me any spells which can help me fight him"

Hikaru advances towards the Skeleton

Aki comes closer to yuki and shouts at hikaru "You can't do any high level spells without any wand,without high-level spell you will surely lose, don't approach him come back and ask this old lady for a wand tell her my name she will give you one"

As hikaru tries to follow aki order and turn back, the skeleton points his finger at hikaru, the finger breaks and falls at the same time hikaru feels heavy pressure and falls on ground. The pressure gets heavier and heavier, Hikaru gets more and more buried in the ground.Yuki sees it and yells "brother".

She'll looks towards them old woman and says

"Grandma we were sent here by aki he said if I tell you his name you will give us a wand please give it to me quickly"

Without questioning what was going on, The old lady touched the ground near the tree.The ground starts shaking, first roots come out from ground then a stone, then the stone breaks and a wand appears from its inside.A wand with mixture of white and gray colour, it was a beautiful wand.

Yuki quickly grabs the wand and asks Aki to what to do now

Aki replies to her by saying 'Repeat after me O goddess of the jokers, thou who rule……..”

Yuki repeated after him. The area around the wand's top starts glowing. When they complete the enchant,

The ground below the skeleton disappears and his bones start to break. A grey fog started covering him,the broken bones fell on the ground. When the grey fog covered his full body, cracks were formed in all of his bones and the full skeleton broke and fell on the ground.

Hikaru was able to get free from the pressure. He sits on the ground while coughing really hard.The old lady takes yuki towards hikaru on her back. Yuki asks hikaru

"Are you okay brother?"

Hikaru replies" nah... I am fine"

Yuki hugs hikaru with teary eyes.Hikaru calms her down then looks at aki and says

"Looks like the the deal is complete "

Hikaru looks around little after calming down and thinks

‘Now what?’
