'Thought'

"Talking"

*Action*

"Powerful entity (gods, dragons, etc.)"

The scene opens to the ruins of a massive structure that seemed to be the amalgamation of organic and inorganic matter as indicated by the pair of massive but broken teeth in the background.

The landscape quickly switches to the ruins of a throne room as a black vortex appears and a figure jumps out in a... less than grateful position.

"Note to self: don't jump into portals when you're in a rush." I groan and slowly get up.

[And it seems we have ended up in another random universe. Again]

"To be fair, I was running from security guards. I didn't exactly have time to think." I look around the ruined chamber. "What is this place?"

[The walls and general structure indicates that this place was organic in nature. It also seems to be magical in nature]

"Magical? Did we end up in a magic universe? I wonder which one?" I ponder the question. I know many shows and games that revolve around magic like the Fate series and Overlord. However, nothing in this place indicates that I am in either of those worlds. "I guess I'll just have to take a look around."

[Try using Mana Sense. It should be able to direct you to the source]

"Right." I close my eyes and activate [Mana Sense], sending a blue pulse throughout the entire area.

*PING!*

"Found them. There are five magical signatures just below us." I said.

[Mana Sense LVL. 2/10]

I walk out of the throne room and journey forward, passing through the destroyed and decaying halls which are riddled with the corpses of monsters and so on. "These monsters... they look familiar."

After sometime I come upon a large gash spewing some kind of substance almost like a gaping wound. "The signal leads down here." Without a second thought, I jump down the gash and land on a river. "*Gasp!* This shit stinks!" I yell as the current drags me into an opening. I struggle to free myself but the current is too much as I am forced into taking hard turns and stretching myself in order to fit through narrow paths. Eventually, I fall out of the pipes and land on the cold hard floor revealing that the pipe has been ruptured.

I take a quick sniff of my clothes and quickly pull my head back in disgust. "Gross. I smell like shit."

[It seems we have arrived at the center of the structure. The mana output here is much higher than on the surface although it seems to be... corrupted]

I look around to see organic wiring traveling throughout the area, carrying all of the energy to one place. I follow the trail of magic before finding a small opening in the wall and take a look. On the other side are large vats full of glowing liquid, but I also spot many more behind them although those seem to be non functional.

"Is this... some kind of laboratory?" But my musing is cut short by a series of voices coming from the other side.

"Raaagh! Damn those Fairy Tail wizards!" An angry voice roared. "Especially that Dragon Slayer! I'm gonna flail him!"

"Fairy Tail?" I blink before getting a better look at the two. The first is a young muscular man with animal features, particularly those of a cat or a cheetah. He has dark blonde hair, reaching down to his shoulders and covering the left side of his face, perpetually hiding his left eye from sight, juts upwards on top of his head in a pair of prominent protrusions shaped like ears, his nose is small and black like a canine's; he has a furry tail protruding from his lower back, colored the same as his hair, and pointed, triangular fang-like teeth. His one visible eye, complete with a dark slit pupil, bears a thick dark outline, and black spots are present both below it and above its linear eyebrow.
