Chapter 19: Book of Merlin

Aether glowed brighter as letters started to from across the blade all written in Scarlett's name. Liza watches from the side lines before a book drop on top of her head. It was heavy.

Heavy as in when it had contact with Liza's head, Liza's face was smashed into the ground. Liza pushed herself up with the book flopped in front of her. She turned to the Mother Toad glaring daggers.

"Do not give me such an expression little goblin. For this is your reward, one of the books created by the great wizard Merlin," Mother Toad said.

'Merlin? The old dude in the story of King Arthur? That Merlin? ' Liza thought to herself as she gazes upon the rather large and old book.

Liza held the cover and slowly opened the book and the letters left the pages shot straight through her eyes. Liza started see flashes of images and heard several different languages all at once. Soon the letters stopped as they scrambled through Liza's mind. Liza layed on the ground unconscious while losing the feeling in her arms and legs.

'What is this? Are these memories? Who do these memories belong to? Their not mine, that for sure. Last thing I checked I only died once,'

Liza watches the memories of a small boy with a human mother and a Incubus father. The boy was born with great magical potential, the boy knew this and decided grow up to become a well known and powerful soccer. When the boy finally achieved his goal. The boy, now a man. Decided to pass his teaching to others however it ended up horribly. Wars were made, conflicts grew more dangerous and Demon Lords were created.

The wizard felt ashamed for what he done so to atone his actions. He went across the world and sealed peices of this magic as books away with magical guardians to protect them from anyone who thirst for power. While giving them to ones who adem themselves worthy of the books. The ones who are will hopefully use the books power to make the world be at peace once again.

'Wow... that was so boring. It like I watched through a history lesson. These must be Merlin memories,' Liza groaned as she regained consciousness.

"Ow~" was all Liza said when she finally woke up fully.

Liza felt a stinging pain on her forehead. She reaches up and felt fingers were slightly soak in something warm. Liza took a sniff as the sense shot her with familiarity.

It was blood. It explained why Liza's head hurts so much, but how did she got this wound in the first place? Liza was pretty sure she felled backwards before going unconscious, or was that just her imagination.

Possible, she might've leaned backwards but flopped forward instead. But if that were true, why was she laying down on her back and not her front? Did Scarlett watched her fall and flipped Liza on her back?

No. Liza turned her head to the side to see Scarlett still holding the glowing blade. So it wasn't Scarlett, then the Mother Toad? Nope. Liza would've been covered with some kind of purple Toad goop, or something similar if the Mother Toad even tried to help Liza.

So then why was Liza laying on her back but had wound on her forehead. Liza slowly sat up and saw the letters on the pages of the book were gone.

"Where did they go?" Liza scratch the top of her in confusion.

"The letters are inside of you," spoke a voice behind of Liza.

"What?" Liza turned around and stared up at Mother Toad.

"The letters on that book wrote a story, not only about the author life but also about his wisdom. Tell me little goblin, do you feel any different?"

'Different? Besides this splitting pain on my forehead, I haven't felt anything else different to recall,' right after that thought passed through Liza's mind, she started getting several of Pop Ups appearing in front of her.
