Elemental Dissonance.

'Whoosh' 

A heavy gust of wind splashed at Bilal's face as he exited that house through it's cranky door. 

A wooden fence gate presented itself in front of him just a few feet away, pretty similar to House's condition it too was dilapidated and antiqued, looking very fragile. 

Other than the blue sky up above and an unusual amount of vegetation in the surrounding nothing else can be seen from the doorstep. 

'Guess this place needs a serious renovation' Bilal thought for a second and stepped ahead. 

Turning around he tried observing the House from the outside in its entirety, but was bewildered not because of the house, instead he was shocked seeing a tall and mighty mountain just behind that One roomed House. 

The mountain itself was insanely huge, as Bilal couldn't even see it's peak from there, the area around the house seemed to be the foot of the Mountain as no slope-like ground could yet be seen around the fence and ahead of it. 

Half the mountain was covered in a thick layer of snow white clouds revolving around it in a circular fashion at the same time several huge streams of multicoloured particles were being ribboned at the top constantly. 

Accompanying it there was yet another mountain in adjacent to its side, even though smaller than the one near him, it still was around half its size and diameter. 

Connected by the flowing blue stream it too was magnificent; with a vast waterfall oozing out from it's Gigantic and bulky boulders completely running wildly and unrestrained, surrounding it were several hillsized rock formations. 

Seeing these group of Mystical mountains no words were able to emerging out from his mouth, as if completely enchanted in a trance like state, for him the colour of the blue sky brightened all of a sudden to the extreme and a massive influx of bright white particles could be seen descending from the skies approaching Bilal.

The continuous array of Notifications abruptly dragged him out from his trance, the brightened sky returned back to its normal brightness and the incoming stream of white particles in its majority disappeared within a flash from the mid-air and never to arrive at Bilal.

While some remnants arrived onto him penetrating the thick clothes easily and submerging into his body. 

"What in the hell was that?!?!!" Bilal spoke in a fit of confusion and looked above. 

But there was no one to answer his questions, the area was unusually silent quite contrary to Wildlife population often seen around mountains and waterfalls, not even a sparrow could be seen; 

'Where have these people thrown me off to? something is terribly wrong here, I must escape this place quickly' 

Before he could manifest his thoughts into reality, a loud 'Hummm' was heard from the mountain top. 

Taking a look up above Bilal saw the sky getting cracked and an invisible wave like force descending upon the small mountain, scattering the connective blue particle stream and the white clouds surrounding it. 

Within that moment, he knew the foreboding evil has arrived, neglecting the new System Mission and everything else, he immediately turned around and crazily ran in the opposite direction. 

Another loud 'Hummm' could be heard once again, yet again a heavy force entered through the crack onto the mountain, expanding the cracks further, the force manifested itself as a Shock pulse and travelled into the distance in a disk-like form. 

"How dare you the denizens of Green Wind tribe not invite the Empire's emissaries in your recent discoveries!!" 

A masculine voice preceded over the mountain range, as with a thunderous 'BOOM' the cracking sky shattered into large pieces like an artificial glass dome and the owner of that voice entered through the broken sky dome. 

The one who entered was a middle aged man fully adorned in Silver plated armor having tinges of Black throughout and a red cape, his face was muscular with a sharp jawline to top it off smoothly, if that wasn't enough he had a pair of hazel blue eyes and light azure hair, summarizing him, all in all his looks were absolutely flawless. 

Turning around every now and then, Bilal caught the glimpse of the Armored man floating in the broken sky, other than a slight glance he caught nothing else, since that man disappeared within the flash of a moment and reappearing on top of smaller mountain, basked in a Radiant Silvery aura encircling his body like a gaseous flame cloud. 

Out of nowhere a sleek metallic spear appeared in his hand as he pointed it at the snowy layer of the bigger mountain, Bilal got dazed as he saw the Radiant Silvery aura from the body of that man started congealing and concentrating at the metallic tip of the spear making it resplendently bright. 

From the tip of the spear the concentrated Silvery aura shot out as a single beam of energy, expanding and scattering out into hundreds of small energy beams crashing heavily on the surface of the bigger mountain, this action generated an immense gust of wind. 

The wind was so intense that many trees surrounding the dual mountains was instantly swept away by the Impact and the accompanying Shockwave. 

It blew off the running Bilal from his path as well, since he too was in the vicinity of the mountains even though he tried escaping first. 

The tempestous gust of wind steered him off balance and threw him off to bump against a tree trunk, coughing a mouthful of blood Bilal laid on the ground seeing the aftermath of that blast, the towering mountain whose top couldn't be seen was ravaged and razed to the ground. 

'....' No words came out of Bilal's mouth seeing this supreme display of destruction, his Earthly brain couldn't comprehend the logic of a Human having this much strength, if present on Earth, he would've been worshipped as a God, subconsciously an satiable d.e.s.i.r.e for the same strength rose with Bilal's mind. 

He hadn't even digested this fact, before a strange scene came to his notice, it came with the sudden emergence of rows of houses like structures on the mountain which weren't present there before, it was a shocking unveiling to him, since this was his first time seeing the seemingly omnipotent System getting fooled completely. 

The rows upon rows of houses were gradually getting unravelled out of that illusion, the cracked sky from which the man entered followed the entries of two more fellows adorned in Black, their features couldn't be spotted as they were completely covered from head to toe. 

A petrifying thought spread out to his spine just thinking about his only trump card 'The System' being failed before these compelling and obscure powers, it was another thing seeing those Non-Human things wielding strange powers that he saw on Earth; seeing a Human wielding a mountain shattering power was another, it convinced him that he too can acquire it through some means orthodox or not. 

The words of a certain bird-like figure's suddenly came to his mind and he was suddenly reminded him of their talk which he forgot completely in this chaos

'Find me some followers and I'll make you my Oracle and grant you strength unimaginable'

'I've opened up the Warrior and Mage's Energy paths, now it's your turn to fulfil your end of the deal' 

Even though he didn't knew what an Oracle was nor its power, but it still would be better than being powerless at least it would help in escaping from a situation like this, the deal which the Bird was proposing about seemed worthwhile now. 

He steeled his resolve of acquiring power either from that Owl or from anywhere else, he too had been annoyed of being undermined by almost everyone else. 

"I must get out of here first" Bilal wiping off the blood from mouth with his left hand and stood up slowly. 

Returning to his previous pace once again he started running with all the speed he could gather in his legs, since his life depended on it, who knows when that Man in the sky plan to kill him off, he would have no choice but to die. 

Still running, he noticed something off with his speed it was almost a double, obligious of the tremendous increase in speed though confused he didn't stop running, instead he put up even greater effort and energy into running. 

The feeling was like a fuel tank continously feeding his legs the energy required for him to propel off to even greater paces. 

'Fweet' 

A whistling sound reached his ears and within a moment Bilal was surrounded by tens of black clothed figures standing atop trees, just like the ones that barged from the sky after that man in Silver Armor.
