"Elio!" Aislah rushed towards him and kneeled beside him. The first thing that came to her mind is to cure him with her water. Samson got beside them and get Esther back to lessen the weight Elio was carrying. A drop of water was floating on Aislah's palm, getting bigger as seconds went by. When it was enough, the water floated towards Elio and came straight to his mouth. "You're over using your power." Thea and Ayden stayed in front of them and tied the two people towards the golden statues on their right. They were both tied using Thea's ice with spiky edges. However, they couldn't contain the other one just like the two. He can use teleportation, and he easily got away with them. "We need to get out from here. There were ten of them and we can't fight them all." Elio said as soon as he recovered a little. "What's really happening? Who are they?" "People who shouldn't be alive at this time. And they're coming. Let's go."Elio pulled himself up with Aislah's help. It was st
“Get up!” Ayden’s frustrated despair echoes around the enclosed black room. His anger is so evident in his eyes as he stares at the man lying on the floor. One side of the man’s lips is already bleeding. His body is full of bruises, yet he stays still, lying on the cold cemented floor. “I said get up, Elio, what the hell? Fight, you asshole.” There was no response from him despite everything that he had said. He was still lying there, not doing anything. His eyes were closed, and his breathing pattern was out of normal, but he still looked so fine even with his bleeding lips, and wounded face. “It’s been two years, man. You need to move forward. We all lost someone important that day, but look at us, we’re coping up. We’re trying.” Elio Freyr let out a little laugh that caused him to cough blood from his mouth. He turned to his left side and pulled himself up with all the strength left within him. “Now you’re laughing. How could you?” He watched him with furrows in between his
"Well Mr. Freyr, if I am just going to show off, I should've manipulated everything that people are seeing using my Light in order to hide our almost ruined town from the attack from two years ago."Elio Freyr broke their eye contact first and helped himself to sit on the bed in order to get away from her, fast. When the past is already the topic, the first thing Elio wanted to do is to run away, and that's what he did for the past two years of his life. "Running away won't solve anything." Madam Loury faced him and out of nowhere said those words that he didn't expect to hear. "And this is why running away is worth it because of people like you who doesn't know how to stop when you should be." Madam Loury's expression went flat, and after a while, she just shrugged her head and sighed. Elio Freyr really has a way to annoy and make the people around him feel so frustrated with and without using words."Drink this." A glass filled with green liquid appeared in her hand through a s
The rumbling thunder started to roar in the sky. Dark clouds were slowly crawling over the town of Vizca, making the place darker and colder. People on land were mesmerized by the sudden phenomena, watching the clouds as it covered their place. Birds were flying to different places, searching for a place to stay to avoid being in darkness. It was when a very strong lightning struck the open space on land, when the people outside their houses started to panic. It has never occurred to them that it might happen in their own place, but it was happening in front of their eyes. The lightning left a mark on the ground - two triangles intersecting with each other, one was inverted, forming a star, and in the middle, there was a circle with a little skull inside. Once they saw it, people already had an idea what was happening. Elderlies went outside their homes with the adults, while children were forced to get back inside and hide from there. Another lightning struck the land, as power
Another day had started in the Academy. Elio Freyr was enjoying his lunch alone in the Academy's cafeteria when a group of students entered the hall, and sat on the next table across from him. They were all quiet, and it seemed like there was a tension in that circle of students in front of him. A woman in a black blouse and with silver hair named Thea caught up staring straight at him as soon as she found her own seat. Her eyes were beaming with longingness, and concern registered all over her face. Her sudden action caught everyone's attention, and one by one, they followed where her gaze was fixed. The quiet and heavy atmosphere in their circle has become even more obvious, and got a lot heavier. Everyone knew what had happened between Ayden and Elio a day before, but no one had ever spoken about it since. Elio Freyr and Ayden were quite famous back then. They were friends, the best of the best, and no one could separate them once they had started doing something together. Bu
"You can see me. I'm sure of that." Elio kept his head up high and fixed his sight straight at the hallway he was taking. Students were still scattered everywhere taking their lunch break productively by practicing their magics and abilities, and chatting with people they know around the Academy. There were students in the hallway that Elio was passing by who were showcasing their own abilities to their peers, and making sure that they would be the center of attention. But when they noticed him, they were all stopping, and making a way for him to walk past through the hallway. No one wanted to bump into him or even just make contact with him, and so they were all avoiding him. "Why are they looking at you like that? And why the heck are they avoiding you, El?" Elio turned to the nearest hallway from his right, and turned left to the next hallway after. There were no students in that hallway and he knew that because it was the way to the lecture rooms, and no one would want to b
The afternoon lecture classes had ended, and instead of going straight to his dormitory, Elio Freyr walked to the hallway towards the Library. It was not crowded that time of the day, because most of the students were in the black room to get their afternoon training as it was their schedule for the weekdays. Not everyone was interested in training, and it was fine for the school if they chose not to attend every afternoon session, but they were required to attend at least two every week. And Elio Freyr was one of those students who didn't like the idea of having training after lectures, instead he had chosen to be alone in the library. But the thought of being alone was not possible, because a woman in her invisible form has never left his side ever since. "Professor Euls is better than your Professor for the History of Magic. What's his name again? George? Yeah, Professor George. His class is so boring." For how many times already since the moment he spent his time with Esther
One of them jumped down to the ground and stood on his feet behind Elio, positioning himself to attack him. "What's happening here?" Everyone stopped, even the one behind Elio as a voice of a woman echoed behind them. Elio turned his back and met the person who was ready to attack him. He gave him a blank stare, before giving his attention to the woman who arrived. "Nothing. This just slipped from my hand." He showed her the book he was holding to make his lie more believable, but the seriousness pasted on his face has never left him. "Oh. Okay." She nodded. "I thought something's happening here already. You know. Things had messed up here. And we need to check everything. If you need something just call any of us." "I will, Thea. Thanks. I'll let you know." From his peripheral vision, Elio saw the five trying to escape from him. The four of them were getting down from the shelf, and the one in front of him stepped to his side. Thea, one of his old friends, turned to her right
