Chapter 44 : Mutual-Evit 4 of 10 “Fate” (Part 01)
Whether it was the Realm that belonged to whom, it was unclear since when the realm of consciousness that could even interpret that reality existed in between each dimension. Touching the sidelines of the world, making a new world of his own. None of the beings knew the exact coordinates, but clearly the Realm was there without being accessible from the outside as long as the world was recreated.
The white room dominated, whether it was the sky or the floor all looked white. The giant serrated wheels lay useless on the floor inundated with clear water. Cube with white color is uneven, unorganized and only exist in that place without having meaning.
In such a lonely place, a black-haired girl stood barefoot on a puddle as high as her eyes. Her hair was black unraveled to the waist, wearing a red bando and a dress with a light gothic impression of black.
He stared flat at the empty place, with his dark eyes seemingly full of destruction. A sharp cold smile was contained within his blank expression. Stepping forward, the girl sat on top of one of the white cubes. Sticking the legs once, the water that pooled in the place disappeared instantly as if from the beginning there was nothing.
Sitting staring at the empty place, he just put on a smile that seemed full of evil thoughts. Next to her feet was chained, making the girl unable to come out of her own Realm. But it did not make him sad or anything like that, that kind of feeling he had forgotten long ago.
There's just an obsession on something that keeps making it “Ada”.
The girl is the ruler of the world and the figure who realized the World Reconstruction, the creature that is called the Supreme God, Hellena.
That's not his name, just how the creatures that know him call him that. A name that is identical to light in the middle of darkness, is very contrary to the nature of the figure.
With a small smile, he said, “The world seems to be in a hurry to be destroyed. They have realized your existence yes, ╤╤╤╤ Ah, your name is even rejected. Really, it's pathetic. Though this world I rearranged for you, but I was instead removed by my own creation.”
The girl got up, stepped foot without a pedestal and walked down the place. Despite going as far as anything, the chains that bound one of his legs were not inexhaustible as if they were infinitely long. However, the girl continued to walk in the same place and seemed to be completely motionless from the spot.
His footsteps stopped, reaching out both hands to the sky as if craving something and begging, “One day I want you to look at me again with those eyes full of light.”
Tears flowed, making a red crack line around his cheeks and making both his eyeballs turn a pitch-black color. As he continued to shed red tears, he again said.
“What I hate is you. I always hated until I wanted to curse because of your nature. But ... hate is just a different side of the coin, here the other is clearly love. I understand that clearly, Love and Hate are two things that are almost the same, it's because the opponent Love is not Hate, but Grief.”
His body collapsed limply, sitting among the scattered little serrated wheels. The clockwork sound rang out of nowhere, making a silent melody that seemed to continue to gnaw at his soul in loneliness. The red tears were flowing more and more.
“I've always troubled you. Stand in the opposite place to you. Although I realize I can't live without you, but still .... You've always been apathetic to my kindness .... One day you will hope for your strength to return, to protect what you now consider happiness. Even if you are aware in fact it will disappear .., it will still be. You ... are not in their place, you are just passing by. We are different, therefore .... we are —!”
His body collapsed to the floor, lying with blank eyes as if his soul was not on the Astral body. Completely gone, just like a stiff corpse lying down. Soon, puddles of water began to fill the place and make the woman's body float lightly on the surface.
He woke up again, without remembering what he said before. Stare towards the empty place and continue to say similar things like what he said before. That is the fate of the Lord of the world who seized his power, continues to experience a cycle of regret and will repeat every few hours.
Although she did not remember it completely, she knew that she had done the same thing for billions of times because the concept of time perception was still left in her soul. She could not rebel, for she was now just a weak woman with no authority to rule the world and was caught in a short cycle of causality within the Realm.

A bonfire lit up amid the dense darkness, surrounded by trees that began to grow shoots in early spring. The small tent stands not far from the light source, as a cold, shade and resting place. The two horses that pulled the carriage for a full day had already slept after eating the grass, not far from the people who had ridden.
Sitting near the bonfire, Odo stared flat at the flames licking from the wooden logs. At first glance his cornea turned green, analyzing other things and continued with his breath after getting the conclusion.
A small lizard crept closer to the young man. Disgusted or reluctant, Odo takes off the left glove and catches the lizard directly without obstruction. Observing the scaly beast, the young man took it off and returned wearing gloves.
“What ... is this beyond your plan?” asked Canna who was sitting on the other side of the campfire, she bent both her knees forward and curled up slightly.
There was a hint of dissatisfaction with the magician's gaze from the Miquator. During the two days of travel he had not done the task as a magician hired by Odo, he felt not useful at all despite having received a high down payment.
“Ya, this is not in plan.” Odo did not dodge, sighed again and said, “It should be the bandits I was looking for around this place ... Roughly, he and his troops would flee to Mylta territory rather than remain in Rockfield which is now increasing activity to eradicate the remnants of bandits.”
“Is there no possibility of the bandits going to the territory of another city? Around Rockfield there is not only Mylta. They could have fled to Izta Maria or Lignum. At worst, they went to the Rein.” region
Odo momentarily fell silent, analyzed the possibility and replied, “I don't think it is possible. The two cities you mentioned are the center of Trade and the Great Urban Area. If they escape to other regions, crossing the border without papers is very risky. They don't think they'll do that .... Although yes, they must have been arrested at the border.”
“Can there be a breakthrough ...”
“Eng, if it happens means my plan failed and I will give up.”
“Eh?”
Canna was stunned, not expecting Odo to say such a thing and backed off easily. Gaining a glare from Vil who was sitting next to the young man in black hair, the white-haired magician immediately lowered his face.
Odo looked up, looking at the starless sky in the spring. It looked quite dark without the moon, making him remember something in the past. Squinting and breathing lightly, he looked at Canna and said, “Well, that doesn't mean I'm going to abandon this plan. If I don't get that bandit, I'm just looking for another bandit. There is no stipulation should the bandits, I do this just because of the issue of justice.”
“Adil?” Vil wakes up disturbed, clears his skirt from the ground and stares flatly at Odo. Squinting, he resentfully said, “If you're talking about justice, you shouldn't be helping criminals!”
“Vil, you still want to discuss that?” Odo looked at me with anxiety.
“Ah, sorry. I pull my words.” Odo stopped looking at the Great Spirit, lowered his face and said, “This is my selfishness. I ... want to keep feeling right, so I'm looking for a bandit named Kolt Luis. According to reports and cases, he was notorious as a ruthless bandit and slaughtered most of the time. Therefore, I ...”
The atmosphere became silent as Odo the subjective reason, making Vil speechless with a strange feeling. He could not argue what the young man wanted. Back sitting next to him, softly he said, “Sorry ....”
“Tak what ...” Odo immediately got up, turned around and walked towards the tent. “I slept first .... My body activation is up,” he said lightly.
Vil simply went silent letting the young man step away. The atmosphere became silent, only the sound of friction of leaves being blown by the wind and the sound of wood breaking on the bonfire.
When Odo had actually entered the tent, Canna curiously asked, “Great Spirit, why is that him? If it's been a few hours has he always fainted?”
Vil raised his face with a flat expression, recalling Canna who was very panicked when she first saw Odo suddenly collapsing and. Smiling lightly, he with a thin smile explained, “Odo maximizes body functions. As almost all of his magic circuits were gone, Odo became weak and had to do just that to speed up his recovery. He said it was a kind of therapy, letting the whole body function down drastically on a regular basis to facilitate energy circulation.”
“Hmmm ...” Canna put her right hand in front of her mouth, lowered her head and tried to understand the explanation. Staring lightly, he said, “So sort of separates the turbid water from the clear water, then drains the dirty part.”
Vil stared at the magician. He felt that Canna had a relationship with Odo that was a little different from other people. Suspectingly he asked, “Kamu .. kok did not ask why Odo could be like that, huh? Did you know from the beginning of Odo like that?”
“Hmm!” Canna nodded, smiled lightly and said, “I've noticed that there's something strange about Mr. Odo's Aya— when he returns from the extermination plan. It must have been the effect after fighting the Demon King.”
“Aya? Aya what?” Vil is suspicious.
“It's okay, really. Ehehe ..” Canna did not look away and just put on a flat expression, hiding her panic due to leaking.
“Really?” Vil intimidates.
“Ya ..” Canna still put on an expression without trepidation even though the inside was already trembling fearing for her secret to be revealed.
“Huh ...” Vil looked away and looked into the darkness of the spruce forest. Getting such an answer he realized that Canan had a special relationship with Odo that he did not know. Glancing flat, he said, “Yes, never mind .... We also have to sleep, it looks like Odo does not want to give up on this plan.”
Vil got up from his seat and walked towards the horse carriage to pick up the blanket. Since the tent could only be used by two people and had been fully filled, he decided to relent and sleep outside with Canna.
“What ... The Great Spirit also needs sleep?”
“Of course .... Myself also a living creature, obviously need.”
“Hmm, what makes the Great Spirit exist in this world because of the Soul Contract with Mr. Odo, or..”.
Vil's footsteps came to a halt before picking up on the blanket cloth on the horse carriage. Looking at her with a slightly uneasy gaze, he explained, “This is not a Soul Contract, just sort of makes a container of existence with Odo power. Because of that .. I can't be far from that young man.”
The night wind blew, waving the blue hair of the Great Spirit. That blue color was not a natural thing like most other mortal beings. It was the effect of the magic content in Vil's body that made his hair and eyes blue
In the darkness, in Canna's eyes the blue color looks so beautiful like a beautifully polished Lapiz Lazuli. Making one of the descendants of Korwa momentarily stunned.
“Tch!” Odo suddenly walked out of the tent with an annoyed expression. His right cheek was slightly red with the shape of a foot.
“Ke-Why?” ask Vil.
“Dia .. her sleep is like a wrestler too. Kick right, kick left.”
Without mentioning, Vil and Canna knew who Odo meant. On the previous night, the two of them also had a turn to sleep in the tent with Nanra, then got a kick and fist from the little girl who participated in the trip this time.
Odo slightly opened the door of the tent cloth, looking at Nanra who was sleeping inside in a position stretching out both her hands and feet. That way of sleeping did not reflect the feminine nature of women at all, instead it looked barbaric and a little made Odo inhale fretfully.
“You slept together outside?” bargain VIl.
“Yes, I sleep outside only. Could be inside me bonyok. Great you can sleep with him, yeah. Huh, the feeling that time he slept was not this bad.”
“I tied it.”
“I tied it.”
“Heh?”
Odo was stunned to hear such an answer. He preferred not to ask further when he saw the bright smile of Vil and Canna because he felt something creepy in it. Indirectly, the seeds of enmity had already spread between Nanra and the two women.
