The Rise Of A Porter

The air that had been flowing violently on the previous day had lost all of its momentum and was still as if it had obtained eternal peace and calmness, yet was content enough to meander at its own pace. The soothing winds welcomed the amber glow of the sky with open arms, the sun, slowly but surely, sank through the surface of Earth.

During this time, a man was standing in front of a building. He was surrounded by a horde of hundreds of different types of monsters, beasts, humans, and robots. The horde contained from monsters as tall and strong as a titan, to as small as a wolf. If someone saw this scene they would\'ve immediately run away from there, screaming for help. But the monsters weren\'t going to do any harm to anyone until and unless it was their Master\'s will.

​​

It was none other than Arnold and his army of summons, standing in front of the building that was once the headquarters of The Church Of Chaos.

"Is everyone out of the void?" Arnold asked Talos who was still in his Demon Orc form.

"Yes, master. Everyone apart from Natasha as per your request." Talos replied.

Arnold had called his summons out of the void because he didn\'t want the building to collapse on them, and destroy them, as it was his first time doing something like this, he took all the precautions that he could. Everyone and everything inside the void had been brought outside, apart from two things, Natasha, the perverted succubus and the pile of corpses, for obvious reasons.

If Natasha got out of the void Arnold would\'ve lost the power to control that was granted to him by his domain, and he\'d have to kill her inevitably which would then lead to him wasting his time which was an obvious no go. Plus, even if she got destroyed while Arnold sent the building inside his domain, it wouldn\'t have affected him much, as he never actually used her in battle. Not till he figured out of a way to control her outside the domain.

Secondly, if he brought the pile of corpses outside of the void they would\'ve immediately started to rot and Arnold didn\'t know how long it would take him to transfer the building inside his void and he didn\'t want the precious corpses to rot even a bit, hence, he thought it was better if the corpses stayed inside the domain throughout the procedure. However, as a precaution he did order his summons to make a smaller group of corpses out of the huge pile and scatter them around the void so that the probability of all of the corpses getting crushed was reduced, then he called everyone out of the void.

After confirming that everyone was out of the void, Arnold set his plan into motion. Arnold activated his skill and within a blink of an eye, a large black circle appeared at his feet, which continuously expanded until it covered the building in its entirety. Although Arnold had opened a lot of portals before in his life, he had never even tried to open a portal having such a massive size, the sheer size of the portal was overwhelming everyone around it.

But all was not well, soon heavy beads of sweat rolled down his face. A trickle of blood ran down his nose... the pressure he felt on his body due to activating such a huge portal was beyond Arnold\'s imagination. But he didn\'t give up and kept going at it, refusing to stop until the task was done, and slowly his efforts started showing their colours. The building slowly started sinking into the enormous dark hole.

"Come... on... move... faster!" Arnold gritted his teeth, his face was as red as the sun was barely over the horizon as if even the sun wanted to see the spectacle of Arnold\'s commitment to the task.

The trees surrounding the church were the first things to fall inside the portal, while the garage was the first part of the building that was consumed by the void. Slowly, the two-storeyed building was swallowed up by the void in its entirety, as if the building never existed there.

The portal collapsed as soon as the terrace of the church went into the void. Arnold was lying on his back, panting heavily, thick beads of sweat continuously drenching him, blood coming out of his nose had dried up, it felt as if his strength had been thrust out of his body.

Alice immediately ran towards him and started utilizing spells to restore his stamina and strength.

"Thanks, Alice." Arnold mumbled as Duke helped him back on his legs, "Let\'s go and see whether the building is alrig-"

The sudden appearance of a notification on his interface interrupted Arnold.

\'I levelled up a skill? But I didn\'t even use my Potential points, and even if I had it wouldn\'t be enough to level up any skill of mine...\' Arnold thought and opened the interface.

"Holy mother of Jesus! I didn\'t know this ability could\'ve been levelled up as well!" The words escaped from Arnold\'s mouth even before he could realise it.

Arnold was speechless, he didn\'t why or how it happened but he wasn\'t going to complain about it. In fact, his mind was tingling to use it, and he soon got the opportunity to do so.

Allen contacted him through his communicator, Arnold quickly received the call, "Yeah?"

"Ananda is looking for you. You said you\'ll be back in a few hours but the sun is about to go down and you\'re still not here."

"Geez, dude. What are you? My girlfriend? I\'m already back." Arnold barely managed to hold his grin.

"What? Where are you?"

"In my room, where else?"

"I see... maybe I should\'ve checked there first. I went to the garage the Humvee wasn\'t there so I thought you weren\'t back."

"Yeah the car broke down after I got back, so I told Talos and the others to repair it."

"Alright see you in a while." Allen disconnected the call.

"Alright guys, let\'s move." Arnold said a opened a portal to his domain which was as big as the one he had used to devour the building, but surprisingly, this time, he didn\'t feel stress over his body like he has felt before, "You guys go and check everything in the inside, and T2, take the Humvee with you as well."

"Yes, Master." T2 replied and drove the humvee inside the portal, while the others followed him.

Once everyone was inside, Arnold closed the portal and opened another one, but this time the portal was much smaller than the previous one and rather than being black, it was surprisingly, crimson in colour. This was the \'Travel Portal\', while the black one was called the \'Domain Portal\'. Arnold unhesitatingly walked through the portal, as the redness of the Sun disappeared from the sky.
