The Search for Freedom 52 The Magical World
Learning magic and become powerful like Alicia was what I needed, for I knew it could help me in my next fight, especially since she told me that after every fight, the next enemy would become stronger than the first one. I didn't know what kind of people I would be fighting next, but it was better to be prepared so that I could keep my life safe.I needed to practice dark magic because I wasn't good on it; I couldn't even grow a leaf from a tree by using my hand. I was still practicing dark magic with Alicia. She had complained many times about why I was so difficult to teach. But it wasn't my problem if I was so difficult to teach, because she once told me that it also took her many years before she mastered all types of magics and power she had.I didn't know what was happening to my mansion. Maybe they noticed I wasn't there, and they would leave the mansion because of that. I wondered if they were okay. Though I knew they didn't need to work there anymore, especially since they d

LilThe play round was over. I needed to be serious because killing people was serious. Cain was a bit of a joker, and he wasn't a boring friend like other people. I also wanted to have friends who always smiled and laughed regardless of their problems. Those kinds of people could live longer in this world, especially that they had high adversity quotient, and they could go through a rough patch in life, and come out of it without losing their mind. There were things that someone laughed about, but the other wasn't affected and made them irritated, though it was normal. I must laugh about it rather than became mad, for it would only destroy the good vibes."Why did you bring me here?" I asked.Though I knew we were there to search for people we could sacrifice to get rid of the curses that were on both me and Cain. I knew Cain would help me in searching for people we could kill, because not only my freedom lies in it, but also his freedom. I needed to do it faster for the curse alway

Cain had checked the man and told me that he was absolutely dead and there wasn't a way to bring him back to life. Cain seemed to be performing fake magic. Perhaps it was his way of offering the psyche of the man to the spirit he'd mentioned, who could help him out of the curse and go back to the realm of spirits where he came from.I was so merciless that I had killed too many people. I could not consider everything as an adventurous game anymore. I hoped, I could say, I didn't care about anyone, but I needed to finish what I had started. I knew it was just a temporary ordeal.Staying strong is what I needed, because there were many more people to die in my hands for the sake of freedom. It even crossed my mind to stop schooling and focus instead on killing people. I couldn't study if the curse would not let me sleep every night to search for a new victim. This thing was more important than anything else because it could cost me everything. I could resume my studies after I finished

KailaAlicia wasn't totally a heartless woman, for she had feelings like a normal human being. It didn't mean that she was a numb just because she made a mistake, especially that nobody is perfect. I knew it was the reason why she was there with me, perhaps to apologize for everything.Even though she wouldn't express her regret in words, I gradually seen it in her actions. I could see how she would repent in silence. She also wanted to help me solve my problems from little to huge, perhaps to be able to regain her loss.I realized that not all who made a mistake was totally wicked. Sometimes they only need another opportunity to prove that they had change and would not do what they did before. What someone should do was to give that person another chance because they deserve it.However, there were some people who wouldn't apologize though they knew they had hurt others. Those kind of people were defending their wrong belief. Perhaps they thought life was a weather: sometimes good an

I remembered many things when I wasn't thinking about power and my mission in order to be free from this curse. I remembered when I was sitting there on the couch inside the living room of the mansion; walking on the passageway to the library, reading novels, playing with people around, and many others.If I could survive the ordeal, I would never dream for anything again, I would be contented from anything I have, like those people who didn't had what I have, but though they were poor, they didn't assume for anything. They were contented of what they had and of what they could get. I also wanted to be the same with those people, because they weren't pursued by danger and living a simple life.While walking on the narrow passageway, I saw Alicia going towards me, so we meet in the alley. Maybe she already found the next person who needed to fight with. I didn't want to waste my time in searching around if there was nothing showed up. It would only delayed my freedom."So, you found th

LilThere were many things about me which Cain didn't know, but why he needed to know them if it had nothing to do with him? I knew he also had a lot of secrets, and was hesitant to tell them, such as the place where he came from. What we should do was to respect each other's privacy, although that please seemed to be full of wonders, a place of powerful spirits.I even remembered the empty place in my dream, that was always confusing me. But I was thankful that since Cain had shown himself again, I wasn't dreaming about it anymore. It was only a dream and it was totally a normal dream that sometimes shown repeatedly. I should forget them because they could not really help me solve my curse problem.Those challengers? I believed I could defeat them all, especially since the power of hearing was always there to help me. Instead of fearing and worrying about the people I might fight next, I was feeling excited about fighting again. I was excited to use the magics I had learned.It was c

After many days of practicing magic with Cain, I totally forgotten and neglected my schooling. I had not told my parents yet about it, maybe they already noticed I wasn't going to school anymore, though I wasn't always in our house. Cain had promised me that my parents could not noticed it, but I could not be complacent because they seemed like cameras when watching me. Schooling could wait, but the curse could not, so I knew I made the right choice.The result of my training wasn't too bad at all. With Cain's help, I learned teleport myself from on place to another. The power of hearing also taught me how to focus on the thing I wanted to do, because it was needed the most in order to perform magic. If I didn't had on focus and thinking about other things, it would be difficult for me to teleport. But then, it was cool and incredible. I was grateful to the power of hearing, because of it, impossible things turned possible.Good to know that the curse did not attack me again after I h

KailaAfter I killed the little girl, I could not consider myself as a little merciless. What I did was never been a forgivable sin. There was no other way to make someone or even myself forgive me, though someone would say I should stop, I would not, or I could not follow them. I knew what I was doing, and they could not judge me because they didn't know the feeling of being stuck in this situation. I started doing crimes, so I need to finish it whatever happens. I knew it was difficult at the beginning, but it would be easier soon.There was something incredible happened after the little girl died. I never knew or expected, but I also had that kind of power, power which only a few people could have. I had been thinking that I wasn't a normal human, because I had witnessed evidence that proved my inference right.Many times, I witnessed how I became stronger; I could pull, push, and carry something, someone, or even a house with my hands. I could also see everything, even in far plac

The Search for Freedom 88 The End
I could see nothing but darkness. Everywhere I'd look, there was nothingness waiting. I was in a place of emptiness. I didn't know how I got into that kind of place. What I only remember was that I was fighting with the rocks man and I slipped off consciousness because of the rocks that he threw at me. I didn't know how to go back to the real world.My world suddenly tottered. I used all my power to stop the earthquake, but it was so strong that it wanted to destroy my whole world. There was someone destroying my world, the world of emptiness where I could do whatever I want, because I have freedom here. When I opened my eyes, I saw Alicia looking at me."Oh! Alice, what happened to the rocks man?" I asked."Good job, Kaila!" Alice exclaimed. "Your mission to that man has already been completed; you killed him. I'm sorry because I did not help you in killing him, but you still proved that you are powerful.""That's nothing. I know that you are still helping me to search for those peop
The Search for Freedom 87 The Rocks Man
Alicia was laughing when she appeared beside me. She was laughing because of what she saw. Maybe she was laughing because I had gotten some wounds from the enemies. Maybe she was laughing because even though I got some wounds, I was still breathing. Definitely, she was laughing because the two people who were destined to fight me were already dead.As usual, she would offer their spirits to her master. After that, the bodies of the two suddenly disappeared from the spot where they were lying. Then Alicia invited me to go to a bar and stop killing people for a while, just to relax and drink some wine. Of course, I didn't go with her, because she would only waste time and cause some trouble there instead of doing the job that she needed to finish.Alicia took me to the other location, where the fourteenth person. She brought me to a very far place. I know that it was far because it took us seconds to reach the place, though we were teleporting.It seems that the fourteenth person's powe
The Search for Freedom 86 The Comb Girl
After Alicia offered the spirit of the cat woman to her master, she told me something about the twelfth person that was destined to fight me. She told me that the next person that I needed to kill was a woman who had the power of a comb. My adversaries wield power from simple objects such as combs.Then Alicia brought me to the place where the twelfth person lives. She brought me to a very faraway place, a place where many people live, many huge houses stand, old structures are erected, and tall buildings stand against the unblemished sky. It was already morning in this place, and the sun had just shown up in the sky. The sounds of roasters could be heard, and the streets started to become crowded when the transportation came on."Alicia, do you have a plan to tell me where the twelfth person that I need to kill right now?" I said."She was just living there." Alicia pointed her fingers at the big house ahead. It seemed that the twelfth person is wealthy, because she lives in a mansio
The Search for Freedom 85 The Cat Woman
KailaThe whole place was dark and the moon was the only source of light, because there was no electricity in this place. I didn't know if where we would go next, but I was sure that the time there was different from the time here. It felt different to be strolling in the world by using teleportation, because it seemed that my world was spinning around and making me dizzy.Eventually, after a few moments of waiting, Alicia went out from the house of the voice woman. She looked like the same and her hair was not spreading around her shoulder anymore. She learned to tied it because I told her that she looked like old Alicia if her hairs was spreading. She was not just old Alicia, but an ugly hag.I was the definition of a tireless girl. Until then, I had not gotten any information that told the truth about myself. It sounded weird, but I was a girl who did not know myself. I didn't know what kind of girl I was or why I had some kind of power that normal humans didn't had. Maybe I would
The Search for Freedom 84 The Voice Woman
I knew that I didn't owe any favor to Alicia because it was all her mistake why I was fighting. I already learned my lessons, and that thing was just a part of the puzzle. What I should do was to make myself busy in the things that I needed to do. After a few moments of waiting, Alicia was already done in offering the spirit to her master."We're done what we needed to do in this place, so let's go to the next?" I asked."Don't be hasty Kaila, because the tenth person that you needed to kill is not just an ordinary person and there is a big possibility that you cannot defeat that person," Alice said, worriedly."What do you mean?" I asked. "Can't you just tell me who is that person that I needed to kill? So that we cannot waste our time in just standing here?""That person is a woman who has a beautiful voice. Hold my hand and I will bring you to the place where she is living."I held Alicia's hand and we suddenly appeared in the other place."The next person is a woman who has a beau
The Search for Freedom 83 The Ball Boy
Kaila"The next person lives here. He's also a boy, but who has the power of ball. He can change his appearance into a thick, hard and big balls and he will roll down to you. You must be on focus, because he's so fast when he's rolling, and if you cannot avoid him, you will definitely breath your last. So always be on focus," Alice advised."Don't worry about me Alice, I can kill him even he will change himself into a rock, just go to the next person and you don't need to tell if you will go somewhere," I replied."If that what you wanted, I believed that you can kill him in a short period of time, the same with what you did to other people. Hence, I better go now and leave that boy to you, see you here later.""Wait! Don't you have a plan to tell where's that boy now?" I asked."The boy that was destined to fight you is in the plaza, you know he is playing with ball, though he can even play to himself because he can change himself into a ball, haha," Alice replied."Do you mean in th
The Search for Freedom 82 The Room
There were some people passing by and beside us using the winding stairs and going to the other rooms. Good to know they did not noticed me and Cain to be looked weird. They might think that we were just a ordinary people who rent in here. As I know that this building was not open for public. This place was so quiet, there was not even a little sound except those footsteps made by the people who was walking around.I and Cain were just standing here, doing nothing, sometimes glancing at each other and watching to the door of the room where the sun man was. As we didn't want him to elude from us, else we need to search for him again. It seemed that there was someone with him inside the room, for he was sometimes talking with a woman. It was a little weird, but not just that, we sometimes heard their loud, moaning voices. I noticed that Cain was a little bit foolish, for he seemed to listen them."Hey, what are you seemed to cling on that wall?" I asked.The place was filled of silence
The Search for Freedom 81 The Memories
LilWe appeared several feet at a room with green-painted door and yellow curtains hanging inside the windows that are made of glass. It seemed to be my first time having a fight in this kind of place if it happen that the sun man would fight me. Definitely, he have two choices, which were to die or to die hard. A man like him, I knew that he will choose to die hard than to die without fighting at all. If there was someone who would ask me to choose between the two; certainly, I'd die hard, I better die while fighting than dying without fighting."Are you sure that the sun man is here?" Cain asked curiously."Uh-huh, why you are asking me that?" I asked back."If you are really sure that he is here, how did you know that?""If I tell you, there is nothing for you to discover," I replied."I am old in discovering things, why won't you just tell me?""Why won't you just open that door?" I tried changed the topic."If you don't want to tell me, then that is just okay, but let me tell you
The Search for Freedom 80 The Watch Boy
After killing the lady, Alicia appeared with her devilish smile, seeing the fat woman lying down the floor. As what she always did in this occasion, she offered the spirit to her master, then the lady disappeared as Alicia's master accepted the offer.Alicia stood up and I already knew what she wanted to say, that was to ask me if I'm ready to take the next challenge. Well, she didn't need to ask me about it, because I'm always ready.It was already evening when Alicia brought me to the place where the eighth person could be found. The crescent moon gradually appeared in the starry sky. The houses lit around us, then I remembered when I was still in my mansion.I was always looking at the moon which looked like thin wafer of pale lemon, and also at the thick shadows that represent the stables and everything else. In the place of eight person I saw a different view of the moon, it was a white in color with some black stained on it.I became so accustomed of the changing climate, becaus
