Chapter 59: Aswad 6 of 15 “To Speak” (Part 04)

“Who are you?! Are you the shape of that damn skull?!”

“You can call me that. Myself is the world in which you stand now, air, light, darkness, then ..”.

Magda's body was taken over and she stopped acting like a child. Pushing Laura to a fall, the blue-eyed Elf said, “My spirit is also your companion this.”

“A—!” Just as Laura was about to wake up and yell, her body was taken over and instead said, “Or I am also yourself ..” Control of her body returned quickly, as did Magda who again acted like a child and began to twitch her own thumb.

Immediately getting up and looking around with a pale face, Laura's body could not stop trembling. What he felt was so real as if from the beginning his body was not his own. There was no activation of magic or anything like that, what happened before was really like entering completely into the mind. Some information also radiates into the head, making it a little dizzy and the vision fades.

Frustrated Laura asked, “What do you want? Are you really that young man named Odo Luke?!”

Magda was again taken over, her body movements momentarily halted and slowly began to turn her head towards Laura. With a sharp look he asked, “You can call me like, could you not. My identity is no longer important .... I can be her, this woman or even you.”

Notmarina's body lying on the floor began to move again. He sat facing Laura and said, “Yes, it doesn't matter anymore. What matters now ...”

Ul’ma's body began to rise, she sat stiffly and stared at Laura. With his hands still dripping with fresh blood and a hoarse-sounding voice as bone fragments stuck to his neck, he said, “You're making me angry. You attacked the city I was in and intended to destroy it.”

All of those foreclosed bodies suddenly lay to the floor without exception. Magda who was lying down suddenly strangled her own neck tightly, then in her final voice said, “This is the fee you have to bear ..” His neck was broken, his hands were instantly limp and his eyes were wide open in death.

Seeing that, Laura stepped back and closed both her ears tightly. Start kneeling and curling up, hoping he too goes crazy and ends the nightmare right now. However, as if the voice spoke directly into her head, words came out of Laura's own mouth.

“You understand, all this is the result of your decision. Although knowing the mission you received would only kill all your comrades, you did not reject it at all. You want to kill the people in my city.”

Laura was silent for a moment, she stopped closing both ears and raised her face. Gathering courage and not accepting the words that seemed to consider the death of his comrades to be meaningless, he loudly said, “I finished this in my own way! They didn't die in vain! I acted for the justice and truth I believed in! Lowly beings like you don't talk like they understand everything!”

“Huh ...” The voice drowned and laughed at Laura, then clearly said, “The result of what you believe is this! Look at what is before you now, accept the fact that such a thought can achieve nothing! I ask you, has any of your justice been done so far? Have you attained the truth you hoped for? Of course not, right?! All you do is destroy what is not necessary! Kill, kill, kill, and kill! Whether it's enemies or comrades, everything that stands in your way will definitely kill without hesitation as long as it's an order!”

“You ...” Larua stood up straight, putting on a very dark and cursing expression of wrath, “Basic bastard! What the fuck are you! I care about others! As long as me and my closest comrades are fine, that's enough! Killing comrades? Huh! I care about those humans! What is kingdom?! What is the land of water?! All rubbish! It's rotten! Better than cattle cage—!!”

Laura's body suddenly exploded from within, her magic core activated by itself and made the Mana within her react. The world that did not allow the existence of a Mana instantly destroyed it from the inside, scattered like a blown up paper mercon. His flesh splattered with blood, crushed scattered until formless.

Heartbeats sounded tight, the sound of clockwork moving back was clearly heard and echoed to the corners of the place. As the consciousness of the four Fairy Soldiers returned, they woke up on the white floor emitting light. Opening their eyes and realizing, they immediately understood that they had returned to the beginning.

With memories and thoughts after they died for the second time, the four Fairy Soldiers had their own completely out of tune vantage points. Soon they woke up, moved away from each other and watched. Prejudiced, doubtful, and absolutely no confidence in their gazes. The situation made the time that the four of them had spent together for tens to hundreds of years meaningless.

Although after the second time they know that death in the fog world is not an end, but the pain and fear when life ends is very deep in the mind. It was getting stronger the second time, deeply ingrained in their minds and giving off an overwhelming fear.

There are different types of causes of fear, but the most commonly felt by living beings is fear of something they do not know. Not being able to understand the essence, reason, purpose, and how to end it, all of that made death in that fog world so frightening to them.

Amidst the pressure, this time the first one to lose his mind was Laura. He spread out both hands and started laughing, “Hahahhahahah! Uwahahaha!”

It sounded so horrible, full of madness and made the other three Fairy Soldiers come under pressure. Ul’ma who could not help his anger immediately ran towards the Lieutenant, then beat his face until he fell to the floor.

“Stat! Fuck you! Don't even laugh, you bitch!!”

“Uwahahha!!”

Laura remains in a state of madness. Ul’ma further ignited his anger, he climbed up Laura's body and began landing several blows to her face. Some teeth fell out, the nose was broken, the temples were torn, and the eyes were bruised. Even so, he still did not stop beating Laura and began to enjoy it. Sneering like a madman began to appear on Ul’ma's face, continuing to swing his bloodied hands.

“Stop! Ul’ma!” Notmarina who could not bear to see her partner fighting directly grabbed Ul’ma's hair, dragged her on the floor and separated them while saying, “Can-can he die if it continues!”

“Whatever I care about!”

Ul’ma elbowed Notmarina's face until it fell to the ground and her nose was bleeding. Ul’ma's target turned towards the High Elf's pale green hair. He clenched his hand again, then beat Notmarina all out. What Ul’ma attacked the first time was both eyes, seizing the vision of the woman he was piercing and instantly delivering blows to the vital parts of the face. The green-haired woman wanted to fight back, but her frowned-up eyesight allowed her to only protect her face with both arms.

Before Notmarina lost consciousness, from behind Magda strangled Ul’ma with her arm and broke the woman's neck. The light on the look in Ul’ma's eyes instantly dissipated, his body collapsing forward with both eyes wide open.

“Uhahahah!!” In the laughter, Laura directly thrust her finger into Magda's left eye and gouged it out.

“AKH!!”

Not letting Magda fight back, Laura silenced her mouth, then locked her body with both legs and hands. Notmarina got up and was about to help, she clenched her hands and swung a fist at him. But when Laura uses Magda's body as a shield, Notmarina stops the blow. Before she thought of another way to help, Laura immediately sharpened her fingernails and slit Magda's throat.

Blood spurted forward, drenching Notmarina's body and plunging her into rage. Losing her rational thinking, Notmarina shouted out loud, “Uwaaahh!” He immediately kicked Magda with Laura at once until they fell.

Without letting Laura stand, he immediately approached and stomped on her left hand until her fingers were broken. Kicking her face until some of her teeth fell out, Notmarina overshadowed Laura with overflowing emotions and started landing a punch. But before he hit her in the face for the sixth time, Laura sharpened the fingernails of her left hand and immediately tore apart Notmarina's neck.

In a puzzled expression, Notmarina's consciousness began to fade and blood spurted out of her neck. His body collapsed forward, instantly convulsing without being able to instantly die. With a faded view, Notmarina said, “What the fuck is .... Why—”

They returned to the beginning, where all four Fairy Soldiers woke up in a world full of fog. Within seconds, Notmarina lost her mind and went berserk. Then, another killing spree happened between them.

For the fourth time, eight times, dozens, dozens and even hundreds. They continued to feel death, killing each other comrades and going crazy. Every time they die, everything they can will be reset and come back to life. However the memories before they died were embedded clearly without the slightest hint of diminishing, making them quickly go crazy after re-awakening.

In the hundreds of repetitions, they occasionally heard a voice that seemed to be from the figure who brought them into that world. However, not once did they see the figure. The voice provoked the moment the four Fairy Soldiers would unite, ruining their relationship and making the event of killing each other continue.

««»»

A cold wind blew from the direction of the sea, the sky began to darken and the night door had opened wide as the end of the day. The clouds that rule the sky never fade, making the transfer of afternoon to night become the darkest moment of the day. The occasional rumble rang out, lightning flashes several times visible in the gray clouds, making the atmosphere feel terrifying to those who had seen the appearance of the giant skull in the sky.

Far outside the city of Mylta, a woman wearing a camouflage robe took off her hood. Her straight purple hair that was caught in one bond broke down to the chest smoothly. He momentarily smiled slightly, feeling satisfied after seeing one of the singularity points that would change the world and bring him closer to the Beginning of the Beginning, the Roots of the World.

Gazing into the sky and making sure that the Fairy Soldiers had completely vanished from the world, the figure borrowing the body of Princess Ulla Vrog Ma’tar began to stretch out both hands. In the middle of the muddy road full of mud puddles, he stepped up and started dancing. It was like a tyrannical ruler trampling on a pool of blood, rights, hopes, futures, lives and dreams of his army. The form of a ruler who only focuses on what is intended without respecting the lives of others.

“How beautiful this moment~ How happy today~ Oh, my daughter~ You gave your mother this best gift I never thought of. Not only did you let me take over your body, you also gave me this opportunity to see firsthand such a world-changing element!”

He stopped dancing on the puddle of water, facing towards the city and extending both his hands to the sky. In a wide smile full of satisfaction, he unhesitatingly said, “Oh, Laura .... Poor prototype, your sacrifice will never be forgotten. From beginning to end, you are a very valuable component.” The woman put both palms to the chest, began to shed tears and again said, “Your name will be remembered in this mind. Truly, the only creature that can be called a garden is indeed you.”

The sadness was quickly erased from him. A wide smile again appeared on his face, then cheerfully danced again on the puddle and began to walk away from the city. While stepping on his feet happily, he muttered, “Hmm, I should really go back to the ship and go to Moloia. I want to collect even more samples, I want to know what kind of essence the change-carrying figure is!”

“Why don't you ask the guy directly, you fucking bitch!”

The voice that was resounding from the sky made the purple-haired female footsteps come to a halt, turn around and look up in confusion. It was a voice that felt foreign. He really first heard the sound, but strangely he felt a little nostalgia and longing in the mind when he heard it.

In the confusion, a red rain suddenly fell just around the woman and made her wet in red. Princess Ulla briefly fell silent, smelled the red rain water and said, “It .... Not blood? I don't think it's a dye either .... What microbe?” The rain stopped quickly, but in exchange—

Blue lightning suddenly shot out from the sky, descending right in front of the purple-haired female. The smoke from the water evaporating at a glance blocked the view, the aura that felt so strong instantly made him tremble incoherently.

Every living creature has an instinct to survive. When they encountered a figure far stronger than them, every living being had three similar tendencies.

Some choose to run away like a prey that meets predators, there are also those who choose to fight although in the end it will be free. However, Princess Ulla was not a mindless animal that would run away or fight back when she saw a figure stronger than her.

Without himself fully comprehending, with a stunned face he began to kneel and prostrate to the figure. Although he had not seen it in full, without thinking about the dirty place, he still kowtowed and stuck his face into the mud.

The smoke from the evaporating puddles began to dissipate, revealing the figure of a young man with the body gesture of a ruler. He only wore torn black pants and at the bottom there was a bit of burning marks, no clothes, precious metal knick, or even a foot pad. However, it does not reflect low caste.

The perfect body with muscles so strong and neatly formed from top to bottom, black hair like night and blue eyes that seemed to light up in the darkness. Flashes of lightning are occasionally seen around it, making light on the path between the increasingly dark forest.

The purple-haired female raised her face, amazed at the representation of such a high-level being. He stretched out his hands full of longing that felt strange in his own mind, then began to smile and shed tears at the same time. His mouth wanted to say something, yet it was so stiff and sound could not come out.

Odo Luke just stared flat, he understood what elements make up the female soul in front of him. As Odo sent the Fairy Soldiers to the Realm he had created, the young man in black hair had read some of their recent memories. Because of this, he could easily find the location of his mastermind quickly.

The young man stepped up, set his foot on the muddy ground and stared intently at the woman. Each time it stepped, the water content within half a meter instantly evaporated and made the surrounding air pressure change. Pointing towards the woman, Odo said, “Already I guess, the one who rules over them is a creature like you. Again a defective copy of the person ...”
