Villain of my own novel
141 140. Return of the cursed (3).
"How ironic."
I, who once thought of him as a family member, am now looking at him as if I want to resurrect him just to kill him again.
Plenty of the moments I spent with Quinn flashed through my mind as if trying to change my mind, but...
It doesn't matter now, does it?
"Che. How annoying." I clicked my tongue because all the 'muscle memories' I had as the Eye were forcing themselves into my mind every time I moved my body.
'I guess, Nhifrogr's knowledge is useful at times like these....' I closed my eyes and felt every nook and cranny of 'my' body because information about the body always forces itself into my mind even when I don't want it to, it was somewhat convenient this time.
"Hmm...." I clenched and unclenched my fist to check if there was any changes, oh you bet there were, everything felt far more comfortable now, and 'my' body moved exactly how I wanted it to.
SHWOOSH
A dark purple hue exploded from my body, it pulsed twice, and I sensed everything happening on the ground as if I were there myself; many people were covered in fear while trembling, many had fainted, and the mana density in the atmosphere had increased by a factor of two.
Maybe they couldn't handle the sudden increase in atmospheric mana or they feared they would die from the sudden changes, but people seemed.....
Scared.
'That man.....' I could feel a hooded suspicious looking man, he had a black hair which fluttered under the hood, but I ignored him as he felt insignificant, and.....
"Anuke...."
"Thank you." I thanked Anuke as I felt like if not for her, I would have never woken up from that curse, though I would have personally preferred a different....
Method.
Though it may seem cold, her death was a necessary sacrifice, but.....
I glanced at Isha, who was staring at me with a smile on her face, she genuinely seemed happy to see me, hmmm?
'Not that much time has passed in here.....' I stared at the surrounding in a apathetic expression as everything that happened before 64 years flashed in my mind.
"Hahaha, 64 years of the time I have been through..... has passed in a flash?" I chuckled with my right palm rested on my face before I leaned back and stared at the gloomy sky.
"Hoo... You better hide." I took a deep breath and mumbled while glaring at the sky because I didn't know what the being who cursed me looked like, an image of a silhouetted being manifested in my mind.
And
"How dare you mourn for such a pathetic human." I mumbled at the rainy sky because I felt the fading mana of Quinn mixed with Aminah's, the spirit of storm.
I raised my right hand and spread it out a little more, causing a strange translucent dark purple ripple that instantly cleared the rainy clouds as the moon shone beautifully on my right.
"Now, time to mourn for someone who actually deserves it..." I mumbled and disappeared from the sky.
***
A few moments earlier.
The healing potion fell on Isha's thighs where Eshwar had been laying just a moment ago, but now his entire body had disappeared without a trace and as if to add salt to the wound, the heart of maze where circuit pattern which was glowing bright light blue turned crimson red and started to tick.
"!" Isha opened her eyes wide when she felt it.
"Run! Mana is being overloaded!! It'll burst in at most twenty seconds!!" Arngrim yelled at the others.
"Okay! Who remembers the exit route!?" Louie asked, stood up and carried Quinn's dead body behind his back, glanced back and forth at all of them.
Isha ignored them and dashed away because she could feel Eshwar! She didn't know what she was feeling, but she knew where he was right now and dashed through the maze as somehow Eshwar's presence-like something guided her, she trusted and followed that while Henry, Core, Arngrim, and Louie dashed behind her, though they didn't know what happened to her, they followed her because they didn't have much of a choice nor the time as they all forgot the path they walked in from, and it could easily be read on Core's face who seemed to be whining and grumbling about it as she dashed right behind Isha.
It wasn't long before they reached the outside into the pouring rain, as the storm brewed heavily almost covering the moon light, and then abruptly....
RUMBLE (4x)
The ground trembled violently, strongly enough to cause them to lose their balance. Isha used her trait to summon 'shadow hands,' which was her skill; many pitch-black hands erupted from Isha's shadow, which expanded wide enough to cover Henry, Core, Arngrim, and Louie; all the shadow hands held their legs tightly to keep them from falling to the ground.
"Eek!!?" Core yelped in surprise and calmed down only after she felt certain that the shadow hands were not harming her or the others. She then stole a glance at Isha and stared at the sky where Isha was staring, who seemed oblivious to the rain water that had gotten into her eyes.
"...." the others too simply stared at the direction, Core and Isha were staring at.
BOOOMMM
An ear deafening 'BOOM' rang out in the sky, as if a giant asteroid had just crashed on the other side of the world and they were now facing the first ripple, and that loud 'BOOM' reverberated throughout sector five, though terrified, every single human in sector five stared at the sky and suddenly....
SWOOOMMM
A massive pair of demon-like eyes flashed with black abyss-like sclera beneath bright orange iris with vertical black slits that seemed to split the iris from the middle to make way for the abyss behind them and instilled an ingrained fear in everyone present, including Isha, and only then could she feel Eshwar's presence-like something more clearly, that 'something' was as if she could feel his entire existence.... Existence?
'This!!' Isha opened her eyes wide and stared at the exact spot in the sky where she could feel Eshwar as her body trembled subconsciously.
"His existence is being defined!!" Isha exclaimed in surprise.
She felt delighted because she had lost him precisely when he attempted to define his existence in their previous life, all the struggle they went through in the 'Time space' which the Demigods would use to attain their own divinity and their 'divine name' which is required for ascension into godhood.
'He is as strong as a Demigod, now?' Isha tilted her head slightly in confusion.
'This world doesn't even have that much of a pure mana though? .....' Isha furrowed her brows, perplexed and shook her head to dismiss those thoughts.
"That's Eshwar so..... Meh." Isha mumbled and nodded her head in understanding.
BAM
CRA-CRACK (4x)
BOOM
CRACKLE (10x)
"Hmm?"
