NOVEL NEXT Chapter 59: The Rescue Operation in Another Dimension
The Power of the Gods and Higher-Dimensional Beings
Entering the Other Dimension
With a new mission in mind, Loki and his companions opened the door to another dimension. As unstable energy from the other dimension surrounded them, they cautiously took their first steps forward. A fantastical landscape spread before them, with aurora-like lights painting the sky and strange, glowing plants covering the ground.
Loki (Satoshi Koizumi): “So, this is another dimension… What an incredible sight.”
Minerva (Tomomi Koizumi): “Behind this beauty, danger might be lurking. Let’s proceed with caution.”
Apollo (Hikaru Morisei): “Yeah, everyone, stay alert.”
Exploring the Dimensional Area
As they explored the dimensional space, Loki and his group passed through various areas. In one place, gravity felt lighter, while in another, time seemed to flow differently. They relied on each other as they navigated through these anomalies.
Gaia (Misa Morino): “It seems like the laws of physics are different here. We have to be careful as we go.”
Loki (Satoshi Koizumi): “Everyone, if you notice anything strange, let us know immediately.”
Apollo (Hikaru Morisei): “Look, there’s something glowing over there. That could be a clue.”
Discovering the Mermaid Lilith
Guided by the glowing light, they found Lilith, a mermaid, in one corner of the dimensional area. She was trapped in a strange barrier that was draining her energy. Surrounding her were other mermaids, also captured within the same barrier.
Loki (Satoshi Koizumi): “That’s Lilith. Let’s hurry and rescue her.”
Minerva (Tomomi Koizumi): “It looks like the barrier is siphoning their energy. We’ll need to be careful.”
Gaia (Misa Morino): “Lilith, hold on! We’re going to help you!”
Lilith, exhausted, slowly opened her eyes. “Who… are you?”
Loki (Satoshi Koizumi): “We’re Serena’s friends. We’ve come to rescue you.”
Lilith’s eyes widened in surprise. “You know Serena!? She sent you to save me?”
Loki nodded firmly. “That’s right. She’s been worried about you. We’re getting you out of here.”
Starting the Rescue Mission
Loki and his team began working together to rescue Lilith and the other mermaids. The barrier was using dimensional energy to prevent the collapse of the dimension, but it was causing great suffering to the mermaids trapped inside.
Gaia (Misa Morino): “We need to combine our strength to figure out how to break this barrier.”
Apollo (Hikaru Morisei): “Understood. Let’s all work together and move forward.”
Minerva (Tomomi Koizumi) advanced cautiously, keeping a close eye on their surroundings. “If anything seems off, alert me right away.”
The Battle Against the Barrier
As they moved closer to the barrier, it began to defend itself by launching attacks against them. The barrier absorbed energy, shifting its color as it unleashed ominous flashes of light. But Loki’s group fought back, determined to free the mermaids.
Apollo (Hikaru Morisei): “We have to break this barrier!”
Loki (Satoshi Koizumi): “We can do this. We’ll break through with our power!”
Gaia (Misa Morino) spotted the core of the barrier. “The core is here. I’ll try to realign the energy flow.”
Using the Gods’ Power
Gaia placed her hand on the barrier’s core and began channeling the gods’ energy into it. Light flowed from her hands, enveloping the barrier as the mermaids’ energy began to be released.
Gaia (Misa Morino): “We’ll stabilize this barrier with our power!”
Loki (Satoshi Koizumi): “Everyone, support Gaia!”
Apollo, Minerva, and Hermes (Ryoko Akiba) combined their strength, with Prometheus (Kagayaki Ginga) and Vishnu (Wenqiang Li) also lending their power, pouring divine energy into the barrier. Gradually, the barrier’s color shifted and began to glow with a steady light.
Rescuing Lilith and the Mermaids
Finally, Loki and his group reached Lilith and the other mermaids, who were freed from the barrier’s grasp as the gods’ energy stabilized it.
Gaia (Misa Morino): “Lilith, we’re getting you out of here!”
Tears welled up in Lilith’s eyes as she smiled, still exhausted. “Thank you… I’ve been trapped here for so long.”
Minerva (Tomomi Koizumi) gently smiled at her. “You’re safe now. Serena’s been worried about you.”
The other mermaids, now freed, expressed their gratitude. “Thank you… for saving us…”
Relief washed over Lilith’s face. “I can’t thank you enough for saving us.”
Encounter with a Higher-Dimensional Being
After rescuing Lilith and the mermaids, Loki’s group continued on, eventually encountering a strange, glowing entity. It was a higher-dimensional being, lost while traveling through the dimensional rift.
Glowing Being: “Who are you? And where is this place?”
Loki (Satoshi Koizumi): “We’re here to rescue some friends in this dimension. Who are you?”
Glowing Being: “I’m a higher-dimensional entity… I got lost here.”
Minerva (Tomomi Koizumi): “Would you help us find our way?”
Glowing Being: “Of course. I’d like to join you on your journey.”
Reuniting with Serena and Returning the Mermaids
Guided by the glowing being, Loki and his group finally reached Serena. She was overjoyed to see them safe and expressed her deep gratitude with tears in her eyes.
Serena: “Thank you so much… for saving everyone…”
Lilith: “Serena… Thank you. Without them, I don’t know what would have happened to me.”
Loki (Satoshi Koizumi): “We’ve overcome one trial. But our journey isn’t over yet.”
Returning to the Real World
Loki and his companions returned from the other dimension and made their way back to the real world. The mermaids were safely returned to their original home, and the group gathered at their research facility to plan their next steps.
The glowing being, now stable, accompanied Noah and Loki back to the temple, where it would await further instructions while maintaining a steady energy flow.
Loki (Satoshi Koizumi): “We’ve completed one part of our mission. But there’s still a lot ahead of us.”
Noah: “That’s right, Loki. We should start planning our next move.”
Loki: “Indeed, Noah. While the glowing being is stable, we need to decide what to do next.”
Glowing Being: “Thank you, everyone. I can finally relax for a bit now.”
Noah: “Take your time and rest in our temple. We’ll prepare for the next adventure.”
