Whatever it is. Can you believe this? Even at the end of the tunnel, there is a way, but it is not sure that it is the right one, and the future, be that as it may, in this life or the birth of a god? Or is it just our imagination playing with us? Or not?

Ventis game

I think it's just from the adrenaline, but right now my broken right arm doesn't hurt, it's a shame that Demigra isn't here right now, she would heal it in seconds.

Why is this situation so depressing? Every time I look at the creature, I always get an unpleasant feeling of anxiety, as if something is gripping my soul deeply.

Do you just have to answer the three questions and let us go? Would it be that simple, or will it flood us with questions that humans cannot answer?

Next to the mighty Ventis, a human-shaped black hooded entity appeared, but completely above the ground, just floating in the air, like a creature without limits, who could disappear just by looking at it.

I was just standing next to the others, but it wasn't my turn, it was Aika.

Ventis: - You will receive three questions that you have 1 minute to answer, so I advise you to answer them to the best of your ability or you will cease to exist.

Silence fell over the forest, which is now more like an arena, where only 3 people have to stand the fatal test or at least survive it.

Ventis: - First question, what happens to a person when he dies?

Aika: - Can I ask for outside help?

Ventis: - No.

Aika: - It was not included in the regulations.

Ventis: - Tch, go.

"I Whispered"

Mizeya: - Then we can talk, right?

Sinaka: - Now yes.

Mizeya: - So then we have to solve this question together, but then it also means that we have to answer a total of 9 questions perfectly, right?

Sinaka: - We will solve this question for you, my love.

Aika: - If there is no other solution, don't call me your love.

Mizeya: - What happens to a person when he dies? It's a tricky question, it could be answered immediately, but I feel it's deceptive.

Sinaka:- It's actually about, don't be childish anymore, listen to your elders.

Mizeya: - But what if Aika gets into trouble because of this? We cannot act so suddenly.

Aika: - You've already tricked me, so what can I say now?

Ventis: - You have 20 seconds left.

Aika: - Answer quickly.

Ventis: - 10 seconds.

Sinaka goes to the princess and whispers the agreed answer in her ear.

Ventis: - 7...6...5...4...3...2...1. Time's up, what's your answer?

Aika: - The answer to your question is that our bodies perish like dust, but our souls are capable of reincarnation, only our memories dissipate.

Ventis gnashes its sharp teeth, but why?

Ventis: - You answered correctly. Second question, what is it? When you lie down, you wake up, sometimes whole, sometimes half. It has no fire, but it is a lantern, a heavenly blessing for the wanderer.

Mizeya: - What do you think Sinaka?

Sinaka: - It's interesting, but I think it's easy.

Mizeya: - Let's say it at the same time.

Sinaka/Mizeya: - Moon!

Ventis didn't do anything, he just looked at us with a pitying look and an ear-to-ear smile.

Aika: - Idiots, I have to tell him the solution.

The princess walks closer to Ventis and whispers the solution in his ear.

Aika: - Moon.

Ventis: - Congratulations, you have answered correctly again, let the last question follow. How can a simple person become an apostle? You will be given twice as much time to solve this, 120 seconds.

Sinaka: - Apostle? But he is the god of our world, how could a mere mortal be able to become one?

Mizeya: - I have no idea, do you have any ideas?

Sinaka: - There is no logical answer to this, it is as if we are being asked how we can become the absolute supreme being of this world.

Aika: - So then I have to fulfill the order with my body, if you don't know the answer, just say it.

The princess started to tell Ventis about her incorrect answer, but Mizeya grabbed her shoulder and pulled her back.

Mizeya: - We still have time, I'm sure we'll figure something out.

Sinaka: - Soul, souls, Soul Holders, possession of multiple souls, control of multiple souls, but which one it could be, it must have something to do with Soul Holders, they can control other souls along with their own.

Mizeya: - If the two souls or more souls were united? Multiple souls merging? I have no better idea.

Aika goes out to Ventis again.

Ventis: - 50 seconds.

Aika: - My answer is multiple soul union.

The air suddenly became blood-curdling, and Ventis, who had been patiently asking us until now, now took on a completely different look, mouths began to grow on his body, all of which only smiled.

Ventis: Wrong answer. Your assumption was not correct, in case our man was chosen, he would be a hero, but here it was a simple man. The correct answer is to be a Soul Holder and then eat a living soul alive. I have already given your punishment, kill one of your companions.

Mizeya: - You can't ask for that, we're also in the game, aren't we?

Ventus: - I'm afraid you didn't understand the rules I told you before our game. If you don't fulfill the order imposed on your body, you cease to exist, the other players don't matter here, it's not your turn.

Sinaka: - That's not fair, she answered the first 2 questions well, so her don't get anything?

Ventus: - Here the reward is your own life.

Mizeya: - We'll do about it. Dream weapon summon.

Sinaka: - Dream weapon summon.

We have no chance against him, but we cannot fulfill this request, we are forced to fight him, will we be able to gain time even for a few seconds?

It didn't take long for us to reach the head of the Ventus with our swords, but a masked man pushed us back and then took out an object, more like another mask, that he was carrying.

Rito: - Apostolic Absorption - Ventus' smile.

Ventus began to cry in pain that ripped his nerves and soul, and the purple spots appeared on his body, which completely began to surprise his entire being, so that he was forced to flee, exactly underground, from where he came.

So even one piece of Apostolic Absorption can have this kind of power, as far as I know, there are 7 pieces in total, how much and what kind of power would they have if I had them all?

I sit up from the ground and then look at the boy who is standing right in front of me, but I know this man, I must have seen him before, I would bet my life on him.

Mizeya: - Who are you? Answer me!

The masked man didn't make a single sound, instead, he disappeared with a huge but lightning-quick step.

Why am I so weak? I'm always in need of someone else's help, I just don't understand why I have to be so weak, why I can't once and for all become strong enough to never have doubts again, strong enough to protect those who are important to me.

I'm useless, it's been almost 1 year and I still don't feel as incredible or at least as strong as the boy in my dream, that impossibly strong character and amazingly heroic person who was able to share his strength with me, a with failure, just spoiling a fate.

Aika: - Are you okay?

Sinaka: - As long as I see you, I will always be fine.

She has already helped the boy up from the ground, but she prefers to throw him back to the ground.

Aika: - Mizeya, are you okay?

She asks Mizeya while tucking her hair behind her ears.

Mizeya: - Let's go on.

Aika: - Shouldn't we rest? I see a house nearby.

There is a house nearby and it's not that small, but now if we stop we'll be back where we were at the border of Tirinia, we have to go forward, even if it hurts or is cruel.

Mizeya: - No.

I went ahead, ahead, must.

Sinaka: - Stop, why are we in such a hurry?

Mizeya: - Because our enemy is much stronger than us, so we also have to become stronger, we don't have to rest all day.

Sinaka: - Are you afraid now?

Mizeya: - I'm not afraid.

Sinaka: - But who are you afraid of, the enemy?

Mizeya: - You don't know them, I know what they are capable of, 1 second would be enough for them, you are already dead.

Sinaka: - You don't have to describe me like that, remember that I'm stronger than you at the moment.

I'm going to Sinaka.

Mizeya: - I believe so.

Why are your eyes red? It's like making eye contact with a beast. Sinaka's thought.

Sinaka: - I'm just saying that we shouldn't leave right away, we still have time.

Mizeya: - I'm sorry.

Unaware of the effort, we just went forward, even though it was just a play, I was tired too, it wasn't for nothing that Demigra healed me, but even I'm not completely fine if they lose so much blood that an average person would die immediately.

We have to go forward, I know that there is no going back from here, even if I have to fight my teammates, wait for me, I will come.
