A Man Like None Other

Noticing Beau, Jared walked over and asked, “Hey, when you went through the portal of light, did you see the Talls going through it as well?”

“The Talls should have come over. Are they not around too? That’s strange. Many came through the light portal, but how did they just disappear?” Beau was equally perplexed.

“Mr. Chance, did those individuals get torn apart by some sort of time and space anomaly?” Cloud asked, his panic evident on his face.

“That’s impossible. There wasn’t any fluctuation of time and space in this light portal. It’s likely that they’ve been transported to someplace else. The destination of the teleportation for this light portal is random. Where we’re at right now is more like a huge illusionary realm.”

Jared narrowed his eyes, his suspicion evident in his gaze. “An illusionary realm? How powerful must you be to create an illusionary realm as big as this?” Cloud was stunned.
