... ......After using The Rune, (Eyes of Arcane), her pupil started to spread wide covering the whole iris that made it appear black as an ink. A cue to The Present, cog of Destiny. With it, all that she lay her eyes will be unfold and unrevealed.Abomination that she put her eyes on now, had a face close resemble a human, but with a wide mouth full of sharp teeth. There's also an eye on It's forehead with Iris that seems as white as the sclera. Made it similar to blind people.It had a long black hair on the head hanging loosely, and a body of gorilla which made it odd since starting from the neck, is human skin without hair.The Demon that she lay her eyes now isn't something that ever covered in study on the Venus Charter Academy. Not even in the Arcane library could she recall anything mentioned about the Demon in front of her.Of course, it isn't included in the Prohibited Area since only those who manage to lay their hand on the Rank of Rune Master could nib at the information
... ......"Where's the Totem?" Asking Katrine to Rietta."Here." Answer the latter while giving a wooden statue which she took from her bag, to Katrine.Katrine then inspect the Totem she held in her hand. A creature that seems burning on fire sculpted on some kind of wood with a silver glimmer on it. There's also invisible membrane enveloped the statue, that made any who hold it sense it's smooth texture like a glass, and it's shape like cylinder."Not enough. I know you buy something pricey at Autumn Pit." She put her hand in front of the dumbfounded Rietta."How did you knew?" She asked her in askance voice while stepping back and holding tightly at the bag. As if the Captain in front of her changed into a sinister thief menacingly pointed a knife, asking for money.*Bang**Bang* *Bang* *Bang*While the sound of the attack came from behind the enhanced door and wall."Quick, give it to me." With an overbearing tone, she asked again but added with urgent tone, though deep inside s
... ......*Awoooooo*Then everyone stopped, jolted by the sound of howling wolf that seems ringing beside their ear and echoed on their soul, giving them goosebumps and chills all over their body.*Roar* *Bang* *Bang**Shhhaaaass**Krraaaaa*Then not to wait for long, the howl soon following by the roar of the Half-Gorilla Demon overlapping with the sound of a lots of Man Stinger-ray, who seems in pain. There's also the sound of an impact that they could guess is came from the Half-Gorilla Demon, fail hitting on something.They turn, looking back wondering what was happening there, especially Katrine whom barely resist her queer curiosity heart, that seems wishing for her feet to move, satisfying her desire to know what kind of Devil Magic stored on that Totem.Especially the howl from before that managed to even remind her of the sensation she never forgot.A Devil that once gave her a brand.A defeat still keeping her awake, that she's weak.A token.A pain and wound where it stil
... ......Uprain Country, Waybell City.At the empty alleyway vacant of people, suddenly there's distortion on the air. It twisted and contort as the image start to get blur.The light around it soon turn to dark, changed and replaced into a peculiar hole that seems more like a hollow space. It contain darkness and twinkle of light, just like star within galaxy.Followed by 2 persons emerge out of the black hole, as if they we're jumping over something, then fell with a thud on the ground.The 2 whom just out from the black hole that soon reverse back to normal, is 2 woman. It could be seen their clothes is in tatters, with tear here and there that made it seems like they've been in a rough journey from an arduous terrain.*tap* *tap *tap*Shortly, there's ryhthmic sound of someone running on the pavement, getting closer to the 2 who lay on the deserted alleyway."Ehh."There. A boy around 11 years old is came from the curved path that after 2 more turn, will lead to the road outsid
At the Salvatil Orphanage.There's a boy with his ash blonde hair sitting on the floor, while lean on the couch whom filled with kids around 3 to 8 years old. The older one who each had lollipop on their mouth seems protecting the younger one whom holding onto small doll of various kind.On top of his head, there's small yellow kitten that purring contently, while eyes close and open at times, seems sleepy but trying to keep awake.Circling on his left arm, there is a little girl around 2 years whom in daze while sucking on her milk pacifier and holding onto a small bear doll. She's clothed with pink dress with white polka dot pattern.*Nyup* *Nyup* *Nyup*While on his lap, there's small chubby boy around 6 years old, pensively observing the board games in front of him with stern eyes. The Chubby boy had short espresso colored hair, while clothe himself with white shirt and black pants.He then put his gaze while narrowing his eyes at the girl facing him now, while rub on his nonexist
... ......Gavin who also felt someone behind him, turned his head.A man who he was familiar with seemed to be present there without anyone knowing when and how he did it.He was the one who revealed his code as 682. However, this time he wasn't wearing the clothes they had seen before but rather, he was wearing a black hoodie, long jeans, baseball cap, white running shoes and a black waist bag.If look carefully, especially if someone's look at him from the left side, it can be seen that there is a black earpiece attached on the left ear of 682, that Gavin noticed is the type without any logo and brand.Just plain black.Then 682 quick approaching them while saying, "Wait, you guys go back and do what you wish and plan to do. Let me take over from here. So, go." Simultaneously expelling them which was then obeyed by Gavin, Peter and Semill who looked doubtful at first, then also agreed 'cause he notice Gavin and Peter obeying what that person said, which for Semill though was more
... ......Gavin, Peter and Semill continued on foot to the clinic they frequented, even though it wasn't actually the closest clinic to the Salvatil Orphanage.However, Granny Luccy insisted that the clinic, was the only closest clinic for being most honest with its medicine.She argues that the managers of other clinics, often do cunning things for mere profit, with drugs of dubious origin.At that time, Peter asked hesitantly with doubt all over his face, "Aren't those meds the same brand, the same price from the same pharmaceutical manufactur...?"However, his question was interrupted by Granny Luccy's sharp gaze and face which increasingly becoming more and more expressionless.That clearly conveys a sign that she doesn't want to be questionedIt instead made her rebuking Peter with accusations, "A young man should walk more in order to stay fit and in good health. You shouldn't ask this and that, questioning someone who almost sixty. Go away. Remember, don't buy from other clin
... ......Gavin and Semill who saw what Peter was doing just pursed their lips, then exchanged glances."Let's go." said Semill, pulling Peter toward the clinic and entering through the wooden door."Eh. Okay, okay." Peter replied, slightly confused.While Gavin remained silent in place, staring at the red cloth tied on the homeless man wrist.There was a cut that separated the cloth into three, at one of the knots sticking out.There is also a tattoo on his forearm, which is in the form of a snake with 2 pair of wings facing opposite sides, and two heads on each side, with no rear end.Shortly after examining the arm, Gavin then kicked the bum on his folded leg.Even though it wasn't strong, it was enough nonetheless to make the bum startled, then woke up from his sleep."What? What? Who?"After awakening, he immediately stood up then took a stance to defend himself.A moment after, he set his sights on the only shadow and figure that was nearby to him. Clearly the biggest culprit
...After reaching the alleyway where it lead to the orphanage, Gavin frowned.'There's this smell that keep following us. One of it had the smell of thick blood that attach tightly.'He then looked at the front, where there is a beggar with tattered clothes that seems falling asleep with his back lean onto the side of the building.'How could there is homeless man at this place. At least if they were a beggar, he will be outside on the street right now.'There's also green and blue dumspter at the side of the alleyway road.And Gavin, could practically smelled a tobacco mixed with engaging slates of blood, at the place where he can't see due to where he's now, currently positioned.'Someone's hidin' there.'Thinking for a very short moment of time, he found himself getting far from just suspicious. 'And they don't look like part of Justice Enforcer either. Hostile party?'After he certain that those people at the back are still following them, even after they getting inside the alley,
…Walking on the street with tapping feet of pedestrians and the friction of sole with azure street of the day, Semill suddenly started the conversation, "Hey, had any of you heard about murder case last week?"After looking around so as to no garnering too much attention since the topic are a little bit sensitive, Peter then said blearily, "Sssshhhh!!! Don't talk about it too loud!"Instead of took over seriously what Peter said, he put the advice out from his ear, while claimed with loud, bright voice. "Oh, c'mon. You're such a simp. Everyone already knew about it. Why need that much care whether people listening or not. We're just talking over murder case, not about some freaking Guard Dog who finally started to had another of their freakin' crime."It successfully garnering attention from the people around who walking along the road.No!!!In fact, it successfully frightened the daylights out of everyone who heard that, since they're all commoners, and knew well how crazy and vicio
...The female Ranker then continue, "About Priestess Luccy. His Highness already send few Ranker and a High Ranker, to handle her protection long ago. In the meantime, we strive to as soon as possible finish the research. So we could also amend what's done to Priestess Luccy. His Highness asked us, including myself to send a message that, any Igniters on his side won't need to forced, in a fight for the importance of the Royals."...Lady Myriel who heard that, instead chuckle inside.'That young Emperor must be tempted, 'cause knowing Priestess Luccy ability if she ever regain her strength back. No doubt. It will become a huge support if he gain her trust. Meanwhile, not forced to fight. Only dumb people will believe that.' She thought.About how even if those people regained back their Soul Flames, it wouldn't last long for their freedom, if they couldn't even replenish the Life Energy spent on sustaining their own lives.Spirits above Alpha are always attracted to the Life Energy
...'Great... Now I'm the one who'll going to bear her wrath.' She thought inside.There were also some fine beads of sweat appear on her forehead.She quick calmed herself down, then trying to appease her by saying, "But my lady, at that time His Highness doesn't had any strength yet to fight over your case or stop Priestess Luccy from quenching her Soul Flame. Besides, you are once his mentor. And everything that you taught him, is also the things that keeping him stand on his ground now."Granny Mary or what the female Ranker addressed as Lady Myriel, looked at the Ranker who was kneeling on the ground, expressionlessly.*snort*"Now I know why he sent you here. You're quite well talking over with such good speech. But sadly. That's the thing I hate the most. I'm stop trusting any words that come out from the Royals mouth, or anyone under them." At the end of what she said, her tone start to get harsher.The pressure on the female Ranker then started to change.From what at first m
…Granny Mary was a woman that looks, not far from Granny Luccy's age.But whenever she was asked about her age, she instead only smiled and said, "It's rude to ask a woman's age." Which a moment after he said that, Peter who asking her froze in silent.Because he somehow could feel that same cold breeze which passed through his body with a gentle touch, that manage to gave him goosebumps all over his body, every time he left with no choice, to pass through a ghost that seems attached to someone, or something. Just close around the way of his.As a result of such thing that seems came out from Granny Mary, he was frightened and timidly decide not to ask her other peculiar things in a row, that he plan to ask her again.Granny Mary had honey tan skin, black eyes, and hair which color of midnight ruby, that was also passed down, on to her granddaughter, Erin.There's also silver hair stick that locked her hair to the back.One of it's end, had the shape of golden lion head with it's man
