《Generic necromancer portal world story》 Instant transmission The sun rises but his will to live does not... slowly opening his eyes the white and boring ceiling welcomes him. He sits up and looks around, the mess that he calls his room haven''t changed and still requires plenty of care as it always did. Instead of doing any of that, he goes straight into the bathroom and looks in the mirror. What he sees is a reflection of himself. The skin is pale as snow which is the result of barely going outside. The face is partially covered by the Dark long messy hair. greenish eyes with a stare of emptiness Emptiness is what most of his days are. Fitting in wasn''t his specialty, almost every human interaction felt extremely uncomfortable. It could easily be the results of how little human relationships he really has. Since the portals opened a few years ago his parents got plenty of work to do and they are barely at home and making friends isn''t too easy. Something just wasn''t clicking, it didn''t feel right. Walking past trough the rooms trying to get ready for the day he spots a box on the table in the kitchen. with a small paper attached to it Food! for my beloved son William "How is it that you are gone again?" William says to himself wondering when were they home. at midnight? Some may think talking to yourself is weird but for him it has become natural. Instead of having an internal monologue its rather external in his case, but only when he''s alone. Even for him it would be weird to talk to himself among other people. A few minutes later he''s walking down the street. The hood gets blown off his head. The wind blows like always. looking up the gigantic crystal hovering above the city is spinning like always. it supplies the city with energy. Any other use of the Essence has been considered too inefficient but the research is still ongoing. Royal Road is the home of this novel. Visit there to read the original and support the author.The Crystal reminds him of his mother. She''s a scientist and is responsible for an important project related to these crystals. So close to a break trough again just like 3 years ago when the first portals were opened. Will keeps walking forward and looks downwards lost in thought, not paying attention to his surroundings There aren''t many people on streets. A middle aged man increases his pace and starts running towards William. The footsteps are getting louder and even he notices it, so he starts turning his head upwards. Slowly but surely a few greenish particles started gathering in front of him around a meter away, but that he didn''t see. Just a second later the swirling particles have formed a greenish Portal at least as big as him. "Hey! Get away from that!" The man shouts ,but its too late the portal starts sucking inwards and William suddenly disappears. in few hours the portal is surrounded by scientists and various devices to make measurements. The man who got sucked in is far gone and two man in suits are questioning the man who tried to save him. A woman that stands out from the rest also watches the scene with a serene calmness despite the high probability of a tragedy happening. She has a slightly dark skin, Golden brown hair in a ponytail like fashion and deep brown eyes. She wears a brownish robe with golden stripes and short sleeves so it doesn''t bother her while moving around. Her clothing totally stand out form the crowd, but people don''t seem to care. One of the scientists walk up to her "Maya steinherz, E tier riftwalker From the Radiant Blade guild right?" She nods and the scientist pulls out some sort of paper that contains a bunch of statistics. "According to the contract with your guild this area is under your influence and since a civilian fell into the portal it is your duty to get him out." the scientist explains and then fixes the positioning of his glasses "Sure, no problem. How dangerous is this rift again?" "According to my calculations, it shouldn''t be stronger than a E tier. We didn''t measure a huge amount of energy coming trough so around the portal in a 100km radius there shouldn''t be anything too dangerous. We are still not sure about the riftworld''s actual size." With that explained she hesitates no further and quickly dashes into the green gap on space itself. Ermm hes right behind me isnt he? The sun shines brightly and William opens his eyes slowly. The dark green grass he lies in is still damp from the storm that was here. As he sits up his senses slowly coming back he hears the birds chirping and as if something was moving in the bushes a few meters away from him. The last thing he remembers is that man shouting and then the realization hits him. i must have entered a portal somehow... He looks around after blinking a few times intensely, the leaves provide enough cover so he cant see far in the forest and quickly remembers that something is still moving in the bushes.Slowly raising from the ground he watches the bush with caution.As he turns his body to the side fortunately a white bunny jumps out and then runs away with the same speed. Although he wasn''t previously interested in portals and riftwalkers like most people around his age or just in general because its a pretty popular topic, he knows one thing for sure He is totally alone. No civilization, no humanoid creatures... only endless wilderness. I just need to find the portal back. I don''t think I would awaken my core anytime soon even if I stay here. So with that he start walking in one direction hoping that he will either get to a high enough point to see everything or he actually finds the portal. a half hour later he starts getting tired, it feels like he''s been walking around in circles for a while. The trees look the same, the grass looks the same its like he''s at the same place again. In fact he''s not so wrong about feeling like he has been walking in circles, he really didn''t move that much. Suddenly he spots something on one of the trees... an oval shape with two cuts in the middle next to each other and a reverse V above it. He examines the shape touching it with his hand wait... no it can''t be... uh didn''t they say there are no sentient beings in portals? his heart beat increases a bit and his concentration is suddenly broken by a weird sound as if someone pulled on a string...

A pointy eared figure emerges with long blond hair with two braided lines on the back. He wears a leather armor with a green robe on top. First the hair and looks kind of make William thinks its a woman ,but definitely not. Why would a woman be so buff? He holds a longbow made out of white wood with intricate carvings in it. "Wait! I-I mean no harm! Why would you kill me?" Williams top priority is not dying right now The elf slightly loosens the string "Harmless huh? I did not expect scum like you to show up this time. After finishing his insult he quickly hits William in the head with his elbow. Suddenly Williams legs gave out and he falls to the ground. everything fades to dark... William wakes up in something akin to a cell but the walls are made out of roots, it seems like he is underground. where am i? between the roots a light yellowish flower grew out that is slightly glowing providing a light source. time passes slowly in the dark. Slowly the minutes turn into hours and there is silence. "Am I alone?" William asks and as he expected no answer comes. he face still hurts from the hit he got earlier. in the darkness and silence the only thing other than his own breathing is the pain he feels. He starts to feel like as if something is invading his body but he cant get his grasp on it quite yet, then something deep in his body started to move. His senses suddenly get sharper and he inhales as much as he can. "is this... my core?" he says while exhaling. The extra part in his body that wasn''t there before feels weird. Its pulsating like a second heart the difference is he can actually control it, like a muscle.
