Another trip through the void, and Jake found himself back in the tower. At the same time, nine other people appeared. Two of them fell like puppets with their strings cut, another fell over and began throwing up, and three people fell to the floor as they screamed and held their heads.

Reika looked pale as a ghost as she breathed heavily and looked around in fright. Jake and one other guy were the only ones who seemed completely okay. Tossing the other guy a look, Jake recognized him as one of the space mages, so it kinda made sense.

“Why was it so…?”

“Rough? It just is, but it gets better with every teleport, no worries,” Jake explained as he kept looking off to the side. As the only one, it seemed.

“Villy, what are you doing?”

“Showing you where the teleporter to the Order is,” the Viper said as he stood right beside Jake.

“And why am I the only one who knows you are here?”

“Because that is nicer than knocking out everyone else by unleashing a bit of my aura to talk to you while not hidden? Besides, you got that whole telepathy thing down already, so it doesn’t really matter, now does it? Anyway, gather up the cannon fodder, and let’s move on,” Villy answered.

Jake frowned a bit but relayed the information, acting like he knew where to go while just following the Viper. At least he tried to, but they went through the same hallway Jake had and faced the windows displaying the city.

“How…”

“Is this?”

“Wha-?”

Reika didn’t say anything but looked questioningly at Jake.

“Big city, probably in the trillions,” Jake just said.

“So this is the Order of the Malefic Viper?” an alchemist asked, gawking out the window.

“No, the Order is located beneath the ground. We will get there through teleportation,” Jake answered.

“How large is this… place? Is it even a planet?” another alchemist came in.

“It is a planet, and as for how large? No clue, but super big. Not sure about the details. It isn’t like I have a god standing beside me who could answer all these questions,” Jake said with a smirk.

“Heh,” the Viper snickered. “Would be boring to just tell you, but let me share this… the mantle layers contain galaxies.”

“How the hell does that make any sense?” Jake asked skeptically.

“By it being a celestial object larger than something capable of comprehension by the mortal mind? It may seem overwhelming now, but to a god, it is manageable,” Villy shrugged.
