"Great! It's Feliciana from our world! And Cyra from World 13 is here too..."

Just then, an H-country soldier walked over. When he saw the tag on my chest, he looked happy and quickly passed on an order.

"General Lee just gave instructions. He wants all of you to go to the meeting room now! It's an emergency meeting, so please hurry!"

By "all of you," he meant the four of us who were originally from this world: me, Adrian, Reed, and Cyra. After hearing this, I quickly took out my phone and checked my messages. Wayne Peng had already sent out this notice in the group chat.

"How many parallel worlds are there now? Did another special parallel world appear?" I asked, feeling a bit confused. Since more and more people had been coming out of the space portal, the base had almost treated it as normal! Usually, when visitors appeared, they didn't need such a big fuss.

"I think about 20 or so... But I'm not sure what the meeting is about. My job is just to pass on the message," the H-country soldier answered honestly. But Cyra from "World 13" next to me was clearly not included.

"Why are you looking at me? Go quickly! I want to keep reading the Bible with the other me," Cyrae pushed me hard from behind and gave me a look, hinting that we'd talk more later. Then she walked away.

"Does it feel weird? Do you often run into this kind of thing in that other world full of magic?" the H-country soldier asked me out of the blue as he watched Cyra leave. Seeing that I didn't understand, he explained, feeling a bit shy: "Actually, I met another colleague from a parallel world before. He was from World 3. You should know, that feeling is really strange... Oh yeah! He also mentioned that in their world, H-country has a superman with amazing powers like the people in your world! I think his name was Ray... ?"

"Raydwin?" I said, surprised.

World 3 was one of the first parallel worlds connected. Its history wasn't too different from our current world, so it was normal to sometimes see H-country soldiers from other worlds coming over too!

But what was this about Raydwin being a superhero in World 3?

"Yes, yes, that's the name! Do you know this Raydwin too?" The H-country soldier was surprised and looked excited. "That's awesome! So superhumans can appear on our Earth too, right? And it's even an H-country superhuman! Do you know where he is?"

"Uh, I'm not sure. I think I just heard that name before, so I guessed." I didn't want to get Raydwin involved in this, so I just made up an excuse.

But when we brought Cyra back, Raydwin was probably still at the Police station and hadn't come out yet. I suddenly had a bad feeling about it.

"Why are you the only one here?"

When I finally got to the meeting room, I was shocked to see only Adrian and some high-level officials like Wayne Peng there. Cyra and Reed, who were supposed to come, were nowhere to be seen.

"I'm not sure either. Let's just wait and see what's going on!" Adrian shrugged.

"Alright! Looks like everyone is here. Let's start!" General Lee walked in, holding a bunch of documents. He announced without looking up.

"This emergency meeting is about a very tricky issue. We're going to discuss some important intel we just got from inside the M-country consulate!"

"M-country?" I felt confused. M-country was on the other side of the Earth, very far from H-country! Even if there was suddenly some conflict between M-country and H-country, what did that have to do with the space portal crisis the base was facing?
