Elevator To Another World Novels & Stories

Jace thanked the receptionist and the two of them walked to the elevator. "Since, when you got interested to baby fats?" Kaizer asked Jace as he pushed the bright button in the elevator that would lead them to the third floor. The elevator was powered with water magic, maybe because to thrift electricity. It lifted upward when the opposite tube was emptied with water and plummeted downward when the water lifting the elevator puked back to the opposite tube. The water changed color for each time and it somehow added to the liveliness of the hotel. Watching the smooth tornado-like sipping of the water, Jace answered. "Just now,” he said proudly.

He had a way of making decisions without ever needing to speak them aloud, as if he could sense the right path before it even appeared. I nodded, gripping the edge of my seat as the vehicle bounced over uneven terrain. The tension in the air was palpable. I knew we were walking into a hot zone, and I didn’t know how bad it was going to be. I wasn’t used to seeing people—human beings—turn into mindless, rotting monsters, but in this new world, that’s exactly what I had to witness every day. It was hard not to feel like we were losing something with every encounter.

The elevator to Damian's penthouse rose smoothly, silently, like it was carrying them into another world. Elena clutched Mia's small hand tighter than necessary. Her daughter stared wide-eyed at the mirrored walls, the soft golden lights reflecting endless versions of the three of them: tired mother, sleepy child, towering man who looked far too comfortable in crisis.

Audravarians are the highest ones, for we have the longest lives and the strongest powers. Now that I think of it, I might as well read about the other worlds after my daily training which I haven’t done today. They can be learned in class, but I am advance. After all, I have three personal learned Sirs. The sound of my footsteps echoed in the shiny hallway of the imperial palace, giving life to its sullen silence. Taking my way through my room, an ominous atmosphere notched to get in my bones. “Do we have a visitor today?” I asked the servants stationed on my chamber, standing from the sides of my door.

The silence between us stretched long and thin before I finally broke it. “Is there really no way for you and Dale to meet?” I asked, my voice quieter than I intended. Alistair exhaled, setting his mug down. “Like I explained before, I am only a soul—trapped in this dimension by that little girl. Only she decides who can enter. That is, unless you can break the spell she cast.” His words were calm, matter-of-fact, but they left a bitter taste in my mouth. Before I could respond, a sound split through the air.

They settled into a nearby seating area, ready to patiently await the return of their Aunt Alice and the grown-ups, hopeful that their presence would bring them closer to uncovering the truth about their missing mother. As Officer Johnson, Officer Smith, Officer Noah, the receptionist, and Alice stepped into the elevator, the receptionist promptly pressed the button for the 16th floor. The sleek metal doors slid shut, enveloping them in silence as the elevator began its ascent. The confined space seemed to hold its breath, anticipation mounting with each passing floor number displayed on the panel.

The air smelled faintly of lavender and sage. At the end waited a door carved with moons stacked like phases of breath. Alexander pressed his palm to it. The wood dissolved into light, and we stepped into another world. It was a cottage. Not the P*******t-fantasy kind. A real one, tucked inside the palace bones like the universe had hidden an entire fairytale here for emergencies.

At least in this way, the runaway Luna could escape while they tortured her. She clicked on the 9th floor and felt nothing as it started ascending. The first floor was where everything happened. The second and third floors were the apartments where normal members resided. Fourth to 6th floor were offices and conferences rooms. Seventh and eighth were the higher-ups' apartments. Nine and ten belonged to the Master. The number 10 however didn't appear on this elevator. The number nine showed and the doors opened.

Aunt Carolina made it for me so I can easily understand the directions to go. I sighed. I wasn't able to find an elevator either. I wonder where are those stupid elevators are? I slightly raised my brow as the view of what I supposed is the living room greeted me. As what I've expected, it was pretty huge and luxurious too. All things are in modern style. The things that I usually see in televisions when I was in our world. I mean, the mortal world. That's what they call it here. And no, there's no portal or such things. Some of the creatures here just blend in with the people. There are plenty much of them in the city.

“Wait, what’s a hover?” “It’s like a car from the human world, but without wheels. It glides on the surface. It’s solar-powered, has zero emissions, and doesn’t pollute the environment. Unlike Earth, we have no factories and we treasure nature. I’m sure you’ll fall in love with our planet, Eda. We’ll take you to places that are beyond your imagination. Better than anything you’ve seen in sci-fi movies.” “Are you saying all that just to calm me down? Because it’s working—I’m getting excited,” I said with a smile, and he kissed my forehead.
