The Prince of Prophecy and the Bladeless Sword 18. Not What It Seems
“If you want, go ahead. But don’t involve me,” Zenata said. Of course, the girl would refuse. “I don’t want to. Never!” the girl said firmly.“No problem,” Sean replied casually. “Me and Leon will do it. Besides, we didn’t suggest anything to you, like Leon did this morning to divide the tasks,” Sean continued.Zenata stared at Sean sharply, disliking the man.“Right. You don’t have to do it. What you did this afternoon was more than enough. If you don’t want to, that’s okay. Sean and I will investigate,” Leon said.“But Le, what if it can’t be handled? As we know, darkness is hard to handle. We’re just strangers who don’t even have the power to fight a king who is said to be dark and cruel,” Viona chimed in. The girl’s face was restless.“Yes, I know.”“If you knew, you would still do it, right?” Gio already knew that Sean and Leon were two teenagers with high curiosity. They would continue to find out until their curiosity was satisfied.“I think you know that too,” Sean said, still
The Prince of Prophecy and the Bladeless Sword 19. Twin Light Paintings Fading
Leon came out of the room, looking to the right and left of the second floor of the quiet inn. Candles lit in several corners of the place helped illuminate the surroundings. Leon walked slowly, not wanting to make a loud noise that might invite discomfort.The second floor was safe, there was only silence. An uncomfortable feeling gripped Leon, even feeling so cold and piercing his skin. Ignoring it, Leon went down to the ground floor, in the lobby which was also quiet. No woman was guarding the registration desk, or anyone guarding there.Leon didn't know why his feet were walking towards the tightly closed main door. In the window not far from the door, there was a gap. The man was silent there, just silent with a straight gaze into the gap peeking at the atmosphere outside.Just like what Leon saw in the room, outside there was only darkness. Usually, there was candlelight outside or something to illuminate but there was none at all. Leon thought, is it because the darkness will d

"That, does it have to be quiet every night?" Leon asked, remembering the night when Zenata screamed.Azlan looked back at him. "Only loud noises and commotion will make the faceless come," answered Azlan. “Only those who enter noisy houses will be considered breaking the rules.”"Then, just talking like this won't be a problem?" Leon asked again."As long as you can keep your voice low," answered Azlan again.Leon nodded in understanding now.“Then who are you?” Leon remembered the events of the night when Azlan chased away the faceless black creature.His laughter sounded soft again. “I don't know how many times you've asked who I am. However, you will find out later.”“You know, in my observation, you know a lot of things. About what happened, about what might happen. About what might happen in the future. "My feeling says, you know more than just know," said Leon.This time Azlan was silent, looking at Leon deeply and sharply. "You're like that, Leon," said Azlan."What do you mea

As they had planned. Sean and Leon quietly left the room. They made their three friends fall asleep and would not wake up until morning greeted them. There was a fragrance that kept them asleep. Sean with his intelligence put the fragrance also on several inn doors whose aroma entered the gap in the door at the bottom. This was done to keep them from waking up.Leon said there was a possibility that they were fighting something they didn't even know. But they were sure that they would fight. So, to prevent other people from getting involved or hurt, Leon minimized the possibility of that."Are you ready?" Leon asked when Sean had finished applying the sleeping pill fragrance to each door."Yes." Sean nodded confidently.They both looked at each other, of course, there was doubt from them because they didn't know what they would face after that."Okay. We'll start now. Stay with me no matter what happens, and take care of yourself," Leon ordered."You too," Sean replied. Leon nodded hi

“What is that Maya?” Sean asked.Before Maya could answer, another red light moved towards Sean. The man froze for a moment. The light was right in front of him. Hesitating slightly, Sean reached out to grab the light and held it in his hand cruelly as the light disappeared, making Sean’s eyes widen.“What is that?” Sean asked again.“Strength,” Maya answered shortly.Next, their system screens appeared together including Leon’s who was now starting to calm down on Sean’s lap with his eyes slightly open. Leon was conscious but the man was weak.“Congratulations! You successfully defeated the Black Mist Dragon. In return, you get 3000 points and two stars for each. You get a Level Up. In the next level, if the other team doesn’t participate, they will be left behind and you will return to the beginning. Once again congratulations on the level up.” After explaining that the screen dimmed again and disappeared making Leon and Sean look at each other.Leon tried to sit up with Sean’s help
The Prince of Prophecy and the Bladeless Sword 23. Zenata's Doubt
Azlan looked at both of them alternately, right after Azlan said that Sean suddenly became weak and coughed making the others focus their attention on Sean. The man was also panting."Sean?" Leon called his name, but after that, Leon also gasped and coughed."Gosh!" Gio exclaimed as Sean vomited something beside him, blood. "Sean?" Gio approached Sean who did not respond other than coughing up blood.The same thing happened to Leon which made Viona no less anxious until Zenata came but the girl was silent for a few steps seeing the blood coming out of Leon's mouth.Azlan was silent and did nothing."Zenata, why are you silent!" Gio shouted waking Zenata. "Treat them!"There was no response from Zenata but her attention was focused on Leon. "Viona, move," said the girl."What do you mean? Can't you see I'm busy?" Viona replied in a disapproving tone."I said, move!" said Zenata firmly, making Viona look at her angrily. But Zenata's expression looked strange. "L-Leon, only I... only I c

Leon frowned for a moment before opening his eyes. Bright light greeted him. The boy rubbed his eyes, his head dizzy."Are you awake?" Zenata's voice greeted him with a little bit of gruffness.Leon's gaze shifted to the girl sitting in the other chair. Zenata snorted, looking annoyed."Are you okay?" The voice changed to sound softer this time and Leon's gaze fell on Viona who was watching him.Trying to get up from her lying position, Viona quickly helped Leon sit up. His gaze wandered, his mind guessing what happened to him. Leon then remembered the reason he was unconscious."What about Sean?" Leon asked as he remembered his friend."I'm fine now. I woke up earlier than you," Sean replied, leaning forward so Leon could see him."How long was I unconscious?" Leon asked."Not unconscious. You slept very soundly," Zenata snapped in annoyance.Leon blinked, not understanding at all why Zenata looked angry."Just ignore her. She's upset," Viona said to Leon while giving him a glass of

26. The Troublesome Black Figure
Who knows what the five teenagers will face on the night that has begun to change? Different from the previous night, it feels warm and bright this time compared to the dark and tense night yesterday. When the clock shows six o'clock, the sky is still fairly bright with stars starting to appear. However, the atmosphere is quiet because the residents are inside the house, still not allowed to go out of the house."How much longer do we have to wait?" Zenata complained boredly.They only glanced at her briefly and then ignored her.Azlan left everything to the five teenagers because it was a task that they had to complete.Leon who was standing near the window to look outside only glanced briefly. Zenata's complaint was not just once or twice. The girl clicked her tongue in annoyance."Still nothing, Le?" Sean asked approaching, preferring to join Gio and Leon near the window rather than listen to Zenata's complaints."Nothing," answered Gio who was monitoring the situation outside. "Wa
