2 Chapter 2: What should I do?

Yean and Bennett tried but failed to move Maxilin. Yean and Bennett let go of their grasp on him and looked down. "You're still figuring things out. However, Maxilin is not your cup of tea," said Wyiner.

"Go help Evan," he urged, and he picked up Maxilin in a flash. When they saw him, Beneth and Yean's eyes widened. "How is it possible, brother Yean?" Beneth mumbled as he stared at Yean. Yean looked at him and nodded, meaning "no." They both let out a sigh. And walked near Evan. Wyiner entered the carriage with Maxilin. He stared him in the eyes as he placed his head on his lap.

Wyiner's Aside.

Help yourself first, Maxilin. Or you will never be able to find the truth or your answer unless you do so.

Two horse-drawn carriages are rushing through the thick woodland route. A large moon in the sky is beaming at the carriages. Crows crowing and weird animal sounds can be heard from time to time.

'dhong' dhong'.

The sound of the church.

Wyiner walked out of the church, but in the midst of the path, the church's father called out from behind him, "Wyiner."

Wyiner stopped and turned around to face him. "Yes, Father," I said.

He said, "Xavier sent me a letter." Wyiner glanced down but said nothing. "He wanted to know about Maxilin," the father said. "What did you say?" I asked.

"I informed him the child was doing great," he said.

I gave him a questioning look and added, "I do not know why my brother keeps bothering you about his son, even though I constantly tell him about Maxilin." Can't he put his faith in me when it comes to his son? "

The father gave me a kind smile and added, "This isn't about this kid. Maybe he feels you keep things about Maxilin from him." I remained silent and moved my sight away from him.

I said, "I'll write him a letter," After a light nod from the father, I stepped out of the church.

After a short period, two men unlocked the fort gate, allowing Wiyner to enter. He dismounted his horse and went to the Maxilin Chamber.

Wyiner noticed Evan seated next to Maxilin. Wyiner asked, "Evan, what brings you here?"

"Uncle Wyiner," Evan said, "I just came here to see him." "But you are not in good health. You should've gotten some rest," Wyiner said. Evan looked down but didn't respond to Wyiner.

He was hurt in the elbow and the head, and it will take time for him to recover. "Is he all okay, uncle?" Evan asked. "He's been asleep for a day, and he's still sleeping."

Wyiner shut the window and drew the curtain closed. "Evan, he's all right. He'll wake up shortly," he replied. Wyiner ignited all the candles and turned to face Evan, saying, "You've known your friend since you were children. So don't be worried."

"I know, but following that, he also woke up in an hour, but this time it was too long," he said.

"Uncle, will it become worse day by day?" Evan asked.

Evan's story,

Evan and Maxilin have been friends since they were children. Evan's father was a friend of Maxilin's father. Both of them were hunters. Unfortunately, while on a mission, his father was gravely injured and died. Evan's mother passed away during his delivery. Because of his father's death, he became an orphan. Then he was adopted by Xavier, and Maxilin and Evan began living together as brothers.

now.

"Uncle, will it become worse day by day?" Evan asked. Wyiner pondered for a time and said, "I have no idea, Evan. Perhaps it will, or perhaps it will not. "

"What are we going to do now? We can't allow him to go through this." Evan said. As Wyiner said, "Evan," he put his hand on his shoulder.

"Have faith in God. I'm sure he'll show him the way. Maxilin has had this trauma since he was a child, and you may know it as well. Now that he is an adult, he isn't as afraid as he once was. He will be able to overcome this obstacle on his own," Wyiner said.

"And what about the mark on his chest?" Evan asked. "Do you know how quickly it's growing?" he asked. Wyiner stated, "Evan, we have nothing to do with that." "There was no gem or crystal that could work on him."

Evan sighed and fixed his gaze on Maxilin. "We'll figure it out one day, uncle," Evan said as he walked out of the room.

Wyiner sat in the chair, his gaze fixed on Maxilin.

Wyiner's Aside.

What if the devil's mark extended throughout your entire body? Will you become a monster, Maxilin, or will you become the devil's lord?

Scenario 2.

I heard someone calling my name, "Maxilin, Maxilin." "Who? Who is this?" I asked aloud.

I had a look around. I was standing on the shoreline. I gazed up at the sky. The colors of the sky became crimson, and lightning struck many times. I said, "Who is this?" I was startled to hear a horse neighing. So, I turned around and attempted to see it through the fog. However, I could not find anything.

"Max," I heard my name again, but this time, I sensed someone approaching me from behind. When I turned back, all I saw was dust flying. I was ready to grasp my sword when I realized it wasn't with me.

"My sword," I muttered as I straightened my back. After that, I noticed something about 7 or 9 feet long.

I could sense the rage in that creature's gaze as I looked into his eyes. In the fog, all I could see were his red eyes and the red eyes of whatever it was he was sitting on.

I do not know what this is. "Max," it said all of a sudden.

I realized he was approaching me. I began walking backwards as soon as I noticed he was approaching slowly.

Where am I? I took a quick glance around. The sea's waves smashed the beach with ferocious force.

But then I noticed a gem on the beach that belonged to my sword. When the water swept away the sand, I could see my sword clearly. "Max," I heard it said once again.

I dashed to get my sword. But I stubbed my toes on the sand and fell. As I reached for my hand to grasp the sword, I felt someone grab my leg. "Leave me alone," I yelled. But as I heard his neighing, it instantly drew me to him.

'Ahhhhh'

Maxilin sat up in his bed in a flash after opening his eyes.

He was panting heavily and gasping for breath. Maxilin wiped the sweat from his brow. Because of his sweat, his shirt was just slightly damp.

'huf' 'huf'.

I looked across at the flickering candle beside me. It was a dream. I pushed the sheet away from me and sat down on the ground.

I drank the entire contents of the jug. I stood up after drinking and walked over to the window to move the curtain.

I opened the window. A cold, gentle breeze is blowing outside, and there is a big moon in the sky. The full moon is lighting everything in its path.

To be continued.
