AAMON'S REIGN

CHAPTER 5

 

Deshna understood Aamon's curiosity about his parents, but she lacked knowledge about them herself. She felt uneasy about shattering his hopeful expectations.

"Unfortunately, I have no idea where they are," Deshna said with a sigh, causing Aamon's expression to drop. 

He felt let down when he encountered someone who claimed to have knowledge of his parents, only to discover that her understanding was quite limited. 

"It would have been better if you refrained from discussing something you have no knowledge of or any idea about their whereabouts in the first place" Aamon murmured softly, his optimism had been shattered.

"I understand your curiosity about your parents, the eagerness you have is motivating. however, I have limited knowledge about them myself, so I can only provide you with limited information." Deshna was giving Aamon an explanation.

"It's been a whole decade since they disappeared, and there hasn't been a single word about their whereabouts. But strangely enough, I could sense the power emanating from your precious amulet." She carried on, her hand reaching out to the amulet, which suddenly emitted a brilliant glow.

"It was recently activated, allowing me to locate you and be summoned here." She took a moment to collect her thoughts.

Aamon appeared somewhat perplexed and skeptical, seemingly in need of further clarification despite finding her words intriguing.

After a period of silence, Deshna spoke up, explaining her presence and her intention to protect Aamon. He couldn't fathom why she felt the need to do so. 

After his fall from the roof deck and awakening from what appeared to be a coma, he discovered a newfound strength and immense power within himself, and he no longer feel as vulnerable as before.

"The identity of your parents was shrouded in secrecy, unknown to all, and even the existence of their son remained a mystery until your amulet was activated." 

Aamon listened very carefully to Deshna’s words as she continue to tell more information aout his parents.

“When they departed, it seemed as though they had a sense of uncertainty about their return, or perhaps they anticipated a lengthy absence. As a result, they left behind two items for you.” Deshna spoke, and Aamon's eyes lit up with excitement. 

He was filled with an insatiable curiosity, longing to uncover the secrets his parents had left behind before their mysterious departure. 

"What are those two things?" Aamon inquired, and the girl affirmed with a nod, gesturing towards the amulet to indicate its connection to what his parents had left. 

“One of the first things they left you is that amulet, which surely emanates an aura of immense magic and power. When it was activated, it saved you from death and bestowed upon you countless mysterious abilities.” She provided an explanation.

Aamon found himself in a state of bewilderment. The immense power he felt was undeniable, and Deshna's words about the amulet saving him seemed to hold true. However, Aamon remained completely unaware of the nature of this power. 

He was completely clueless about harnessing his newfound abilities, lacking any understanding of how to wield them or grasp the fundamental knowledge that others with similar powers possess.

"But this power," Aamon exclaimed, "is beyond my grasp. I felt its overwhelming force earlier, and it was as if I was losing control of myself, my sanity slipping away." He admitted his feelings to the girl, but her response was only a smile. 

"I get it, and it's completely understandable to feel that way since it's your first experience with this kind of power," Deshna reassured him. " don’t worry. It was the reason why im here. I'll guide you through it." She reassured him.

 Aamon let out a sigh of somewhat relieved.. 

"Will I ever reach your level of skill?" Can I successfully confront and overcome individuals like Bruce who tend to irritate me? Aamon inquired, and Deshna burst into laughter.

"Perhaps you have the potential to surpass me; aim high and don't underestimate yourself." Deshna relayed the information to him, and Aamon acknowledged with a nod. 

"And what comes next?" Aamon inquired, his curiosity once again getting the best of him, and Deshna responded with a smile, aware that the second gift left by Aamon's parents would be a delightful surprise. 

"They left behind a huge sum of money for you." She responded, and Aamon was taken aback as his parents had left him some money.

"A huge of sum of what? Money?" Aamon exclaimed, "What was the amount they left behind?" He inquired once more, but Deshna remained silent, keeping her thoughts to herself in anticipation of a grand surprise. 

Hand in hand, they descended the stairs, drawing the attention of onlookers who couldn't resist capturing the moment with their cameras. 

As Aamon and the girl strolled past, whispers spread among the campus crowd, their astonishment evident at the sight of them together. 

Curiosity sparked among those who wished to approach Aamon and inquire about the girl's relationship with him. However, a sense of intimidation prevented anyone from getting too close, as if the girl held a significant position.

Aamon and Deshna strolled towards the entrance of the university. Aamon couldn't help but feel a bit perplexed. He had anticipated that Deshna would inform him about the sum of money they had left, but she remained silent. 

They didn't have to wait for long before a luxurious limousine pulled up in front of them. Aamon couldn't help but be amazed by the sight of the stunning car. He had never seen such a beautiful vehicle up close before.

Excitement filled the campus as people buzzed about the expensive car that pulled up in front of Aamon and the girl. 

"It's definitely the girl. Aamon is such a despicable man, he's incapable of riding in a car like that." People chattered amongst themselves, but Deshna paid them no mind. 

As she approached the car, she effortlessly activated the key, causing the car to unlock and the door to swing open. Aamon was taken aback, his eyes filled with wonder as he gazed at the car.

Curiosity got the better of him as he cautiously glanced inside the car, hesitant to leave any marks. Little did he know, he would soon find himself seated beside Deshna for a ride. 

Deshna glanced at him and offered a gentle smile, "Won’t you like to join me for a ride?" She extended an invitation to him.
