"It would be much better if I showed you the Gate Theory than explaining," she spoke with a pondering look as she observed me and right after that, she looked at a distance where a mountain began taking shape.
More like, it was the land being elevated from a single point and the forest grew around it. As the forest grew more and more, the tip of the elevation started getting more snowy and soon the mountain became ice capped. It was a mesmerizing phenomenon taking place in front of me.
She then created a certain mechanical device not too far from us and then clicked her fingers again. That mechanical device looked like a giant circular gate, which provided the pathway to another world or something.
"Come with me," she spoke as she stood up and I followed behind her. Soon reaching closer to that giant gate, she looked at me and spoke,"let's go in."
With my abilities still working, I moved behind her into that gate and reached an area which looked like a cold desert. Her eyes turned to me as she pointed to a certain distance,"try focusing over there." Looking in the direction, I found the place where we were just a few moments ago.
"So it connects two places?" I asked, and she nodded before picking up a bit of snow, turning it into a ball of snow, and then throwing it to the other side through the gate. However, the snow stopped at the interjection, unable to pass through the gate.
"And it stops certain elements from being crossed from one point to another, while allowing others?" I asked again, and she nodded before creating a ball of white matter, perhaps another snow, this time purely from her energy and then throwing it to the other side.
That ball easily crossed the space to the other side without any hindrance, and I nodded.
"Well, it has more than just that," she spoke as she then created a mana based fire ball and threw it to the other side, but the fireball paused before being reflected back to Angela, which she easily swiped.
"The key word is omnipotent," she spoke as she looked at me.
"A gate which allows you to enter and exit from one place to another, while limiting certain aspects which you can control. Well, if we convert it into a small container, or more like a place, it becomes a filter, we can actually get the purest form of energy to have ever existed. It's an idea of sorts, which requires an immense amount of energy which needs to be pure and free from contamination," she spoke as she pondered more and more about it.
I understood the idea as I spoke,"so you want the core's energy or more like the material of the core to create a gate filter like that?"
And she denied it at once as she explained,
"No. You were right about the energy of the core, but this energy is actually the energy flowing freely in the atmosphere. A certain being, Anubis, is actually roaming around the planet freely and trying to collect all the energy he can. Our work was actually to find him and stop him. In other words, we are actually preventing the formation of such gates, since it would be harmful to us, or, to be precise, the God of Undead."
"Ah!" I finally realized what she meant. The third reason wasn't to collect the energy, but to stop someone from collecting it. And that being… hmmm… is he an enemy or an ally?
"An enemy of everyone he is. They are called Specters to be definite and feast on pure energy. If all the pure energy is gone from a planet, the planet won't survive you know?" reading my thoughts she spoke and I couldn't help but widen my eyes at that.
'So many mysterious people are roaming about this planet, huh?' I thought as I observed her.
I recalled everything she said once, twice and many times over and it made me question really hard what my next goal should be? I do want to save my parents and all, but if I waste my time even a little more, I have no idea when my planet will cease to exist.
After I finished organizing my thoughts, I looked at her, Angela, once again carefully.

It's not like she is weak or anything, but will it be okay to take her with me? I don't want to trust a complete stranger even a little bit, but the information she just provided is much more important to me than the entire world's worth right now.
I am probably the only citizen of this planet who knows about this secret and I could plan my next few steps much more carefully, all because of her presence.
"Well… Can you answer a question of mine?" I asked as I looked at her and she nodded without any hesitation.
"What's your story? How did you end up in all this mess?" I asked carefully, and her eyes widened a little. She analyzed my expression for a few minutes before she asked,
"Why do you want to know?"
"Hmmm. Curiosity?" I answered as I looked at her stumped face before she pondered and spoke, "Well. It's a really long story. Where do you want me to start?"
I smiled at her and said,"start from your birth, maybe? Just make it brief though and only point out the important things."
She pondered and nodded as she began telling her tale.
