“Moria! Why? Did you really need to take that attack? I had him already,” Harlequin ran towards the goddess of the wind.The goddess smiled as blood trickled down her lips, “You know you can’t struck him as long as he has the chain of destruction,” it was the painful truth that they could not accept.The wound on Moria’s chest was not bleeding at all. The only thing present there was the golden lights that were floating up. Moria’s body was slowly vanishing.“I love you Johannes Harlequin Moriarty, my hero, you can return to your world now,” Moria said with her usual soft melodic voice.“No, s
“What do you mean?” I asked Luther who was standing in the door.“The traitor, she was the one who infiltrated the dorms and erected the barrier. It has something to do with the ender voice,” Luther conveyed.“But the ender voice is dead,” said Johann, “I killed her myself.”“It was a new ender voice. The ender was passed.”“That’s outrageous; the ender was already sealed in the academe!” Mayo exclaimed.“That’s why I told you! It was the traitor!” Luther yelled, tired from repeating his point all over again.“It is just hard to believe especially the fact that you knew about the traitor,” Monk Amon conveyed.The room fell silent.Suddenly, the silence was disturbed by a loud bang that sounded like it came from outside.“Alright, let’s settle this affair after we resolve that one problem out there,” I o
“Is this why you always have the position of the queen empty even after all those fierce battles in the past? Even though you are struggling? Because the spot of the queen is for the goddess?” Zeph said in a sarcastic tone.The attention of the people outside the domain all shifted when they heard the word goddess. This was a conversation some could understand but some would totally get it. This would cause problems afterwards.“Shut up, traitor,” Johann said full of annoyance.“Hey that hurt, I just chose my own side you know. If you step to this side you’ll definitely know of its benefits. The gods have been in power for a very long time, even now that they do not make appearances they are still upheld as the strongest beings. But is that really true? They do not even come save you when you are in the brink of extinction.”“Except for that one goddess there. But is she really here for the Llf
“Where do you plan on finding Antonella?” the headmaster asked as we head out of the headmaster’s office.“The Seven Table Milieus Executive is going to resurrect the Grand Arch Wizard, so they will gather at the place where black mahò is strongly concentrated.” I hypothesized.“The Crooked Forest, where the black dimension is continuously getting bigger,” the frantic William said.Since earlier he was restless and wanted to follow the milieus immediately, but he knows it would be impossible by himself. He does not care of gets caught but what he is worried about is not being able to save his sister.“But why was Antonella Locke kidnapped? Was it because she was a Locke?” Huly Saint Harper asked.Huly was the guy from the Aces who was always with Gale Luke Zandrea, the comical daughter of the capital head of Einsheyl. It is faint but I could feel a strange connection b
“Antonella?”“Yes?” she answered as if there was nothing wrong with her.But I know it, and I feel it, she was not the same Antonella I know. And I could feel it, energy opposite of the ember I hold.“Where are the milieus executives?”“They are preparing for the resurrection right now?” she nonchalantly said.My eyes almost widened but I was able to maintain a straight face.“Did they hurt you?”“Why would they? They opened my eyes! Now I am able to see the ugly truth about the life I have been living,” she spread her arms wide and her lips trembled.“Let us go back Nellie, to the academe; William is worried you know,”Antonella’s expression turned into the worst turn after hearing William’s name. A circle formed under her feet and the trees around us began to move. It was turning into a
The wind brushed harshly against my skin as I soar higher to the skies, the creeping feeling of his gaze still lingers in my skin. Quinn has also felt it, the overwhelming pressure the enemy emits.“What are you planning to do?” Beside me Johann struggled to fight against the pressure of the wind, my eyes rounded when I realized he was with me.I was too hasty, when I felt that gaze I moved on instinct, and my instinct was telling me to run away from that place immediately. I ordered Quinn to halt and the wind quickly calmed down, we were higher up in the skies, we were not able to see what was on the ground anymore.What I saw up here was a familiar scene, I once saw this in my memories, that time I was with him, “Harlequin,” the name suddenly came out of my mouth.“Moria?” there was wonder in his voice but I could hear the joy by my mere utterance of that name.“The Grand Arch Wizard has ful
The wind has become harsher; it felt the brewing danger from the resurrection of the Grand Arch Wizard. Once Johann and the spirits have settled, we came back to the formation and followed the original plan. The others from the academy and the temple were already in their positions, if this comes to worst that plan, we could only hope that is enough.“Don’t worry, we can defeat them,” Johann’s smiling face was oddly not comforting.He trace of smile from what happened earlier was still there, I shook my head in disbelief which only made him grin wider.“William is still restraining Antonella, and we could already see the progress, everything is going as planned.”I remembered the meeting we had at the academe, how we formulated the plan and prepared all the back up plans in case the first strategy fails. We have used all the resources we have, all to not let the Grand Arch Wizard grow more. We should
Slashing and clashing sounds could be heard all over the place, the other aces were on standby not so far away from the battle field. William ran all around the place, circling Antonella who was rooted in her place.William could have easily go on offensive and return the damage he have taken but because it was Antonella he was facing, he could only go as far as getting on defensive.“Why wouldn’t you fight me?” asked Antonella with an edge of irritation in her voice. “You indeed see me as someone who is weak! That’s what I hate most about you, it’s always you… the genius, the best, the healthy and outstanding William!”The nearest root started to attack William, he sped forward, towards Antonella but a smoke that was violet in color crawled towards him and he knew that if he inhaled that smoke, he would faint. So in one swift motion, he avoided the attacking root and distanced himself from Ant
Final Chapter: Secrets of the WindI caught a glance of myself in the glass wall of the flower shop I was working in. My hair was really the unusual color, like an albino. But I am sure I was not one. I was not born with this hair, through growing up white strands just started to show and now my hair was nearly all white. That was the reason why I cut my long hair and always wear a hat, to hide it from speculating eyes.I fixed my hat and picked up the spray I was using to water the flowers. Just then wind passed by, nearly tucking my hat out of my head. The wind made some flower petals dance with it up above the air. I smiled by the beautiful scenery of the dancing petals basking under the rays of the sun.It was a happy scene yet my heart started swelling. Sigh, I just can’t make myself continuously happy, I wonder why too, maybe in my past life I have committed a huge sin?“Christy! Come, your favorite chess tournament is about to end!&rdqu
“Moria!” I flinched when someone slapped my face. Slowly, I opened my eyes and saw a face I have not seen for the longest of time.“How dare you sleep in the middle of a war?” The accusing voice was so refreshing, I missed this feeling.“Ferepia,” I called out to the owner of the hand who slapped me.“Yes it is I, the great fire goddess, now stand Moria, you have a battle to win.”When I realized what was happening I quickly stood up and my eyes witnessed the horrendous scene before me. Dead bodies were everywhere, the once green lush ground was now filled with ash, and the trees that were within battle range were all down, burned and destroyed.Meters away from where I was standing, emitting black energy was The Grand Arch Wizard. But there was something different the energy was decreasing. It was constantly decreasing!“Did it worked goddess Ferepia?”Th
“Chant Lucianna”*“Seething fire of judgmentI offer my strength to give you strengthBurn the your brightest, leave only ashWith your eyes punish the sinners”*For a moment nothing happened, nothing appeared after she chanted the spell, then a flickering light began to grow. In a short time, a bright flame, no, it was the brightest flame I have ever seen danced in from of us.I did not wasted anymore time, I began to fuse my wind spell at the bright flame. The wind would be the guide of this child’s power, the power that will end the enemies.Together, Lucianna and I raised our hands, pointing our spell towards the huge bubble below us. I saw our allies’ faces inside the Johann’s board domain; I trust that they will hold on.“Now!” With all our strength the huge force was directed down to the battle field.I caught Lucianna when she was about to
There was another detail in the prophecy that everyone failed to take notice of. The most important part that will be the key to all of this, it may be our only chance. It was indeed possible for a goddess to defeat this enemy but only one would not suffice against so many enders. So if one would not be enough, we should just call on more.“To my allies, people of Llfhame, for many decades you have put your trust in the gods. Once again, show your devotion and belief; call upon the help of the gods! Together!” I used air to transmit my voice to my comrades.It is gamble since the enemy could hear it too, but this is the only chance.“Your coward gods would never come!”“But I am already here,”Up above the air, I produced a large magic circle enough to cover the whole battlefield.“Now Johann!” I yelled at Johannes who was fighting below. There was no time for him to look at
“Lucianna!” Johannes exclaimed when Lucianna suddenly launched an attack towards me as she approached us in great haste.“I am sorry oh great goddess of the wind, I just can’t seem to forget my burning hatred for you, can you grant me your benevolence?” she sarcastically remarked.I held Johann’s hand and stopped him from going nearer Lucianna.“What happened?” I asked her.Though it is true that Lucianna hates me I know she did not meant to kill me. There is no intention to kill in the energy surrounding her, in fact there was the willingness to cooperate. And of course her hatred for me. the fact that I am a goddess did not seem to have any effect in her view of me. I am still the annoying girl who stole her love interest.“They are ready to execute the plan anytime. My brother is in position,”I nodded at her and faced Johann, “It is time, go lead everyo
