Chapter 59

A comforting and soothing feeling washed over my body as if I had been dipped into a cool river after standing in the light of the scorching summer heat.

I could not understand it at the moment it had happened, but one could say that it was a final gift from beyond the grave.

It had been 6 days ever since I had been thrown into the hell hole that is Earth almost 250 million years ago, or to be precise, just a million years away from the largest mass extinction to ever be recorded, or that was what I thought anyway.

I was never the best of students and when it came to trying to remember things like these, I usually failed to recall them. For all I knew, the P-T mass extinction was the most catastrophic one, killing 75% of all terrestrial animals as well as 82% of all marine ones.

Yet, the things I've seen in the last few days alone had indicated to me that many of the "fun facts" that I knew of before simply did not matter anymore, as now there were creatures that simply defied all logic.

Speaking of defying logic, right now I was standing before the very thing that did so.

It was something that sent shivers down my spine. One could even say that it was my human instinct to be terrified at that very moment, or at least creeped out.

The thing that stood in front of me looked human, dressed as a human, and even stood up-right and bipedal, walking around as if it was a human.

It did not have long ears like those things that invaded Earth. I believe the mangas, games, and comic books called them Elves?

No, it looked nothing like them.

The Elves that I saw back then had crystalline white skin that shone with the radiance of a thousand suns. It was as if they amplified that light that hit them as well as giving themselves a halo of divinity and purity, something incomplete in contrast to the massacres they committed right before my death.
