Chapter 47

It takes 3 days to return to the Main so Emerald's friends decided to take a walk with the spirit in the big city.
Like the Moon Market, Pavillon City also has a festival so many people and many lunaphiles come from their own university. (University of St. Pavillon)
Many strange creatures can be seen here and the goods are pleasant. So, they took the chance while they where there.
MEAN WHILE, Savannah's group suffering from this nerdy smart geek spirit. Savannah will also soon be annoyed because they can't accept an Evo - the Time Spirit.
Not only is he time wise, he is also good at controlling different things.
"Stop bothering me or I'll ruin your future" Evo threatened and adjusted its mirror. They are afraid of the threat of the spirit but they cannot fail this mission because there is a great reward in capturing the spirits.
"Then let's trade, man" Savannah blurted out as they turned to him. The young man Evo took an interest and approached Savannah.
"Very well, I sensed your hate for someone. Bring someone you hate the most and I'll go with you to win the battle. Deal?" I made a deal.
"Deal"
Let's go to the Luna Paradise. Where were chosen lunaphiles training hard. Almost suffering from those hectares and uncontrollable magics. But everyone see improvements.
Getting to the final stages of their magics. They're feeling stronger everyday and not minding their deep cuts, wounds or burns. They want to prove themselves that they will protect the Main at any costs.
And that's proven by changing their color of hairs and eyes'. Just a little practice and they will be back in the Main.
On the other hand, Crush, inspired by the given letter of Devon. He felt very much joy and happiness. That atlast, Devon loves him, too.
Sagwa may think but it is trembling and the ear is red. He wouldn't expected that Devon knows how to write love letters. He's very excited to write again after their training.
While Crush is training, this, 'Mate' intently looking at Crush. He'll never be suspicious and seen by everyone 'cause he's invisible. And he's in the middle of the hectares. The peaceful one. The Light hectares.
He's challenging everyone if they can be strong physically and mentally. He also controls the mad magicians on the various acres as it is tasked to train them and guard them secretly ordered by the supreme over all. The God of the Spirits.
He's watching Crush every movements and skills. Crush is good at fighting but lacks presence and tactics. That's why he and they are getting sore.
This 'Mate' already proven that he's negligent 'kuno'. He doesn't even know if his mate is in danger.
Crush is not trusted because he knows the reason. And it will take back what should have been with him at the right time.
#RBP!
Klarisse's Note: My goddesses, how are you? I'm sorry and you're curious. Oh well, I just have an eye condition and I'm not allowed to cp first. So I asked Aki for help first.
And also sometimes, I like your comments so I can read sometimes.
Aki Writes is a boy, goddesses. It looks like a woman but it's really a man.
'Aki Writes' rp acc. Ko. It wasn't really Aki Writes before, it was 'Connierynthailyaeiou Yle' but I changed it to 'Aki Writes'. I was about to dump this Rp of mine but he breathed. He seems to be my fanboy in the story, one of my silent readers, I can't tell you his name haha. And at first I thought the user of the acc was a woman. He did but he didn't.
Our prendship took a long time so I asked for a favor from him,
That he can post my ud first since everything is written in my drafts until the end, it's actually just finished.
It's like a collab like that, he'll post I'll give chapters and when ud. So, goddesses, wait for Devon Solaire's POV first
As I entered the portal, a very dark environment opened up to me.
All I can see is darkness. I also couldn"t see my body or my own hand. I walked. Finding light somewhere.
I stopped and sigh. I can't feel any sweats nor tired. I just now realized, I"m not walking. Because I was just thinking about that.
I can't find light. All I can see is darkness, empty and null.
I"m not afraid of dark, but why was it the first to show the illusion? Tita Desseri said that my subconcious making my tests, this, illusions.
I also don"t think about doubts, questions and negatives in my brain. It can't help, neither. It make feel worst. So I must think properly, as much as I'm not being affected with illusions.
I sigh one more time and look up. I cringe my forehead when I saw something ...
It was like .... smoke ...
I followed the smoke where it comes from and stop at the small nipa hut.
I looked around. And I was even more surprised when I was in a village. Seleno village.
Night. And only the noises of small creatures can be heard around. The houses are not that luxurious. Everything is just hut and simple. There are many plants around them. There is no electricity here and only candles are used. Trees are dancing with the cold breeze of wind. Fireflies fly infront of me. It"s amazing because they surround me.
I sighed as the firefly was replaced by burning nipa clippings.
I felt a very hot temperature infront of me. And I was even more surprised to see that the whole hut was on fire. I heard a cries. There are lunaphiles inside.
I can walk properly but I can't move my foot. It was stuck. And no matter how hard I try, I can't get out of my position.
The screams and cries inside the burning nipa grew louder. I heard a cry of an infant (Baby) too. I must help them, but how?
I saw the peek of the maiden looking around holding a baby.
They were both crying and burning. She suddenly glanced at my direction which surprised me.
I can see her tears even her half face is burning. "T-help us !!" its accent shout at me.
"..........." my lips parted as I couldn't speak. My voice ...
"I'm begging you! Help us! Even just my son!" its shout was even louder. I felt a pain on my chest. Mercy and guilt. Because I can't save them.
Wait-- I can. I can save them!
I immediately waved my hand but no ice came out. I tried again, but still nothing came out.
I was immediately depressed. I can't move my feet, my voice and magic is gone. What should I do?
"Miss !! Help us! Aaaaahhhh !!" my lips felt more pity when a large tree ran over them. My eyes grew hot and my tears began to roll down my cheeks.
"T-help ....." he said while looking at me. The fire got hotter and it looked like the nipa was about to fall.
"Help ...." was his last whisper still looking at me. He smiled bitterly and at the same time as he hugged his dead son, he was rocking the hut.
Everything's devastated. It was as if I was watching a bonfire in front of me.
My knees weakened and I fell to the ground. At the same time my abundant tears fell.
They're ... gone. I did not help them. I just watched them ... die in the fire and do nothing ...
My mind was blank. It was tragic.
"HINDIIIII !!!" I immediately turned my back and was greeted by so many lunaphiles with a man rushing towards my direction.
He passed me and sighed as he cried out loud in front of the burned hut.
"My wife !! My son !!! Hindiiiii !!!!" I cried even more to feel the pain and grief. It tweaks itself while crying.
"I wouldn't have left them !!!! Devy !!!" my lips quivered when I heard the name others called me
"Devy ....." I whispered hoarsely while crying. I was startled by the glare of the mourning man looking at me. It got up on its knees and violently made me stand up.
"You !! You are to blame for all this !! You witnessed the incident but you did nothing !!! You killed my wife and child !! You !!" its loud and angry shout at me. I could feel its grip on my arm.
I immediately shook. "I ... I ... I'll save them! But I can't move my legs! I can't use my magic either! I lost my voice too! I want to save them!" I forced an explanation while crying. Its mouth is tighter.
"Liar !! I saw! I saw how you saw the smoke! But you didn't check because you're complacent! You're a coward! Careless! Murderer!" I was stunned by what he shouted from my face. My tears flowed more and I felt the intense pain in my heart as if his words had stabbed me.
"No .... I don't--"
*PAK!
It was as if I was deafened by his slap that tilted my face.
"Don't lie anymore !! You mean, you're just scared! You're scared to die! You're selfish!" its angry shout at me. I violently withdrew my arm and calmed myself. I wiped all my tears. He just stepped my ego, and I can't take it anymore. It's killing me!
"You're right .. I'm scared! I'm scared to die! I'm sorry huh ?! Because I'm not a hero to save your mother's life and sacrifice my life because even though I know I can get them out, they won't live either. You also saw Then why don't you save them instead of watching us? " I replied that he was calming down.
"So, stop saying useless words from me. If I'm a coward, you're more cowardly." I said boldly. And then, everything became blurry in my eyes and everything became dark again. I am back again from the darkness. I stumbled into weakness. I passed the first trial, it really hurts. His words mark my brain and heart with pain. I'm just ending up crying .. So st-pid ...
My spirit awoke to feel the strange light hitting me.
I slowly opened my eyes and a dazzling light from above opened up to me.
I slowly got up while still adjusting my puffy eyes from the tears. I just slept after I'm tired of crying.
I rolled my eyes. I"m in the spotlight based on my observation and I"m the only one lit. The place was still pure darkness.
I took a deep breath and remembered what had happened again.
Hayst. What I've done is just showing my weakness. Crying and defending myself emotionally to that man I didn't kill his family.
My first illusion showing that whatever my weakness is, be stronger. That, Let my weakness be my strength, my fears will be my shield, my tears and sweat will be my soldiers, and my words as my weapons.
Hayst. I was too sent by my impulse and lost the thought I was just in an illusion.
That's how it feels to be able to speak frankly. Through to the soul. I feel guilty about what I said. It's like karma was coming back to me.
I took a deep breath and supported myself to my feet. I tied my hair neatly.
I shouldn't be affected by the next illusion, it might kill me, physically.
I was surprised when someone shone in front of me and a clean full sized mirror appeared. Until one after another the atmosphere lit up and I saw only a full sized mirror.
There, I saw my own reflection. Everywhere, everywhere I look I see myself in the mirror.
What is this?
I looked again at the mirror in front of me. I looked at my whole being but my forehead just frowned as nothing happened.
'Devon'
I shuddered when I heard a voice in my mind. I looked around but there was no one, except me and my reflection.
'It's your Tita Desseri, sweetie. I'm talking through telepathy. '
My forehead furrowed and I looked at myself in the mirror in front of me.
'How can I surely about you?' I answered back through my mind.
'Oh sweetie. I forgot, you are in Illusion. Don't worry, I'm not an Illusion '
Prove it" I challenge still using telepathy.
What if, the speaker just circles me in my mind to hurt me again? Huh! Not again!
Telepathy is an ability which we can communicate using our minds. You can communicate not just one, but many more. It just depends on the lunaphiles you talk to whether you are secretive or away from each other.
But Telepathy ability is a rare one. Only a few have that ability.
'You harshly speak sometimes based on your father's attitude that you really inherited. Sighing is one of your mannerism 'I arc my lips in amusement.
'You really got that, but everybody knows that'
'Mmmmm ....... Ahh!'
I was even holding my head when it suddenly shouted. Brain disease.
I am able to communicate with those with Telepathy because sometimes my voice is talkative or loud. Totally headache. I sigh in annoyance.
'You used to snatch I.D. from someone you want to know their identities' this time, my face turned to grimace.
'Your really Tita Desseri. You called?' I just asked and sighed.
But it immediately grabbed my head with a laugh.
'Oops! Sorry sweetie. I just can't help that. For you as Dennise's version 2.0 '
'Is that what you say, Tita. I'm hanging up 'I plainly answered using telepathy.
'Wait! I just want to warn you for your next illusion, sweetie. I know your facing a many mirrors, right? '
I frowned as he guessed where I was now. Wait-did she just watching me?
'If you're thinking that I'm watching you, well it's not sweetie. Someone let in to your Illusion. I can't handle her, because she's too fast. Devon, listen '
My face became serious at what was said
niya. This is not good.
I cringe my forehead infront of the mirror and is surprised when my reflection in the mirror no longer moves.
She's looking at me, seriously.
'Devon, Your biological mother is one of the mirror. And the fake one Gievhone is in there, too! Find and save your mother! Be safe and get rid of one, Gievhone '
Tita Desseri and I lost communication but my brain still did not process what she said, and my own reflection as if I had my own mind and actions.
I sighed as it grinned. I interfered with its direction.
"What are you going to do? Are you just keep staring at me and do nothing, Devon?" she said calmly.
"W-Who are you?" I stammered a question. It laughed for a moment but the face went blank afterwards.
"I am you." its straightforward and calm answer. I frowned at him.
"Liar" I answered back. It raised an eyebrow at me and left the mirror. I followed it with my gaze and he moved across the mirror.
"It's like your telling yourself that you're a liar" she said in a matter of fact tone. I raised an eyebrow and approached him.
"Sadly, 'Cause I'm not you" I said and break the mirror through my magic.
I made an Ice dagger then walked and wandered around the mirrors. I need to find Mama and that fake one.
Did I mention that Mama wasn't the one we spent a few days with? I noticed that when I saw him talking to the gold cloak.
Mama never changed her attitude and she never be a br-tty one. I know my mother well even though we haven't been together for that long
"You can't find--"
*Crassh!
Even before my own reflection could speak I immediately broke the glass
I shouldn't be able to just break. Maybe I can target where mama is locked up without being seen
I need to avoid fake Gievhone, too. She's her somewhere else
"Slow" I immediately hit a glass with an ice dagger and saw what I was looking for.
There she is, my so called fake mother Gievhone. I arranged for us and played with the Ice dagger I was holding.
It just stares at me and looks annoyed to see me.
"Hello there, fake Mom. Would you mind to explain on how you kidnapped my biological Mother without noticing and how did you went here with her?" I asked calmly and released the Ice dagger first.
It bothered me. "Oh Hi there, too, br-tty daughter. It's like that, I was just ordered to kidnap your weak 'mama' and pretend to be her. It's not hard to round up her husband and friends. And, my ability is a copycat. I can imitate what you have! " its explanation and in a flash its form suddenly changed.
She's a teenager br-tty girl, same age as mine. But not quite mature. Her long hair was black and she wore a red dress paired with red stilettos.
"Thanks for telling me, Miss Immature. It's not hard to round you" I mocked her litany earlier. Its two fists clenched.
"Ha! I don't care! As long as I'm holding your mother and you're in your own illusion, I bet you can't get the two together" he said arrogantly and laughed that I just laughed. It suddenly ran away so I would have chased when my own reflection showed up again.
"She's stronger than you, Devon. You can't beat her and save your mother"
I averted an eyebrow at him. "Why would I listen to you? You're just nothing but my reflections. Don't tell me what to do, coward" I answered back laughing at it.
"Me? Coward? Hahaha! You're greatly insane! Talking to your own reflection is such a crazy, are you targeting me? That is your own reflection?"
I laughed. "Apart from the fact that you're desperate, you should also assume. Look there," I said directly and pointed to my own reflection in another mirror. My reflection and I moved correctly. Did he think, he would fool me? Huh!
"It is because--"
"Because you're wasting my time, neither I don't know how many hours I've been here, looks like Tita Desseri forgot to give me a watch" I said shaking my head and passed the useless conversation.
That copycat can't run away from me! Leaning on it, I can probably hear the footsteps.
"You can't run from me, Devon ?! I'm your second trial ?!" it stuttered as it followed me using moving back and forth in the mirrors.
"Nah. I'm done with you" I replied and ignored him. I heard its heel in the left direction. I gasped. I'm not good in chasing.
I waved my hand. I could feel the energy flowing in my hand.
I summoned my clone and tadaa! He is already in front of me.
"Can you please chase that br-tty woman? Don't let her go when you catch her. Follow her noisy heels. I'll just finish my business with my reflection" I gently commanded and looked at what was in the mirror. She smiled like crazy-- no scratch that, she's gone mad crazy.
My clone only nodded and left in front of me to follow that woman. I went to the mirror where my reflection was.
"Shoot" I said sparingly as he frowned.
"Huh?"
I sighed with a sigh. "Aside from being, assumera, mad and slow, what else attitude are you gonna show me?" I answered calmly but I could hear the sarcasm there.
It caught my eye.
"Be careful with your words, Devon. I might come back to you"
"Blah. Blah. Blah. Shoot it" I retorted here
"Shoot, what?"
"What are you going to say and you're still chasing me? You get that? Or do you want me to stamp that right on your slow collar?" high eyebrows I question. I'm getting pissed with this one.
'Devon, it's Tita Desseri' We fixed it when I heard Tita's voice again in my mind.
'I'm listening, Tita'
