Chapter 4 : My Way

*before he helped the spirit

“Uhh, it’s very narrow here I should move faster maybe they’re almost reach the exit door.”

I said to myself. I’m keep moving and reach the spot to see the spirit and that girl. I see they’re hiding in the table and looks like they were talking about something. Well, it doesn’t matter right now, I should take down the rest of the guardian in here, I should move faster! I then continue to move and then open the a vent in that open the vent that leads to the kitchen.

I prepare the bamboo shooter and aim one of them while using the wind magic again. I merge the wind again like I did before. The wind are filled inside the bamboo, I shoot that agent and it hit three of them. One of them realise it and are trying to find me, I’m hiding under the table but then suddenly.

“Freeze!”

Is that a girl voice? And then, suddenly the whole kitchen feels cold and I go out from under the table. I see her with her palms pointing forward. I feel mesmerize by her beauty. Her hair are blue with a little bit white detail, her pupils colour are as blue as skies, her skin are sooo white as the Mt. Almora and wearing a dress that glittered like snow from nylon fabric, her left thigh was exposed. He wore transparent shoes like glass. Ohh! She looks at me and then she say.

“Be careful, don’t move rashly… Now then.”

She then run into the left way. And I’m trying to chase her but it seems to be she jumps out into the window and I see the wall under the window are wet. It seems to be that girl are using the water element to get out from here.

“It’s not her voice. Then, who?” I remembered the mysterious voice back then and then I heard.

“Hurry! We should get outta here. Quickly!”

The spirit running with that girl and then opens the door. I’m following them from behind by walking. When I reach the door I see them are stop near the downstairs, and then I walk slowly stop behind them. I see down there the stairs are burn like the sea of fire and then I say to them like I don’t realized it.

“What’s wrong? Is there any problems?”

“By the name of Lord Rugia! Ha... you make me almost jump into that sea of fire. Then, did you use your power to make this two phenomenon?”

Ask the spirit to the vessel, the vessel are just tilts his head slightly and then say.

“What phenomenon? Ohh you mean this icy stuff and those fire? The answer is… no the person who created this crazy icy thingy is a mysterious beautiful girl. And that fire… I know who is behind it. After all, I’m just learning the wind element from you, mate.”

Then the girl touch the shoulder of the vessel for five seconds and then suddenly she says in her mind.

“I think it’s Michelle. She used her fire elements to make her way inside and find me. And this ice element user is Lauren, I can’t believe she used both of her element this time. Did someone triggered her to make some appeal?”

She looks so surprised and then The vessel just realise that the voice owner is that girl.

“So is that you, huh? The owner of this voice.”

“DID YOU HEAR THAT BACK THEN?!! HOW?! I don’t even remem- I see you grab my hand back then so you can hear me even it’s awhile. But it’s a rare thing, all of people in this country can’t connected with my telepathy only by touching my hand. Even if there is, it’s not long like you.”

“Same as my chase, I’m trying to shake my hand with him but suddenly we merged back then.”

“Merged?!? Then, how did you guys separated?? As far as I know, all beings who make contracts with spirits until those who possess those spirits meet their end cannot be separated easily like that.”

“Maybe because the rule from my world is different? I mean in my world in my world, be precise in my country. We can separate our own “Sukma” or normally we call it soul when we sleep or meditating and explore the 2nd dimension from that world.”

The vessel said while looking down and think how to reach the bottom floor without getting hurt. Then he just remembered the water style that Lauren do back then. And then, he try to do that thing to let that girl going down first. He use the water element to vaporize those water and then make a wind ball but bigger than before and it can’t hurt anyone. He pat softly her back and then say.

“Go on, we’ll use the flying magic to go down.”

“Wait how did you- do you have two elements like us or what?”

That girl said to the vessel, then the spirit suddenly answers.

“I think, he duplicate my power, so… he should be have total 12 elements on his body.”

“I see he have twe- WHAT?!”

That girl looks freaked out and then the wind are suddenly put her down quickly until that girl falls.

“Ouch.”

Then she stand up slowly and wait for both of them to go down. After they’re reach the bottom, the vessel walk nearby the girl ask her with a cool voice.

“Hey, are you good, is there anything hurt beside your butt? Sorry I lost my concentration too.”

Then he look to the left side and then he walk slowly until he reach the gate he look the corridor in front of him.

“You guys wait here, I’ll check that corridor.”

He walk through that corridor and see a woman in a black hair and black short dress with a black long velvet gloves are just walking into the rest of hollow agents direction inside of the party room that the vessel first time come from, slowly.

When she walk I feel a supermassive pressure comes from her. I peek a little bit and then suddenly the air feels very hot. And that’s weird before the air beings hot it’s quiet cold for like 2 or 1 and a half minutes ago. Beside of that, I see her movement are stops and then she say.

“You guys are very unlucky here, hahaha. Well if you guys still wanna live you guys can go outside.”

After she said that, I see a fire comes out from her hand and near her body. And then, a small dark thing are crouching fast into her direction. That’s what I think. But it’s not, that dark thingy are just crouch under the table and then reach the staff door and seems to be spread around that door. One of the agent looks very panic and then open the door. But, they’re too pity. That door has been blocked by that dark thingy and She throws away one of that guy. Then, that woman are just laughing and then say that.

“Oh my, I forgot that you can’t run because I won’t let y’all alive.”

With a happy face that I see a bit she creates a big fire ball and than throw it down to the floor.

“Mi. It’s your job, now…”

“…Understood.”

That room are suddenly burned and then she walks out, she finds me are just peeking her and then says.

“Hey, you boy. You shouldn’t peek this old sister or else… I will take you into my bed.” I blushed but then she say again.

“Haha, what a cute little boy. Don’t worry this big sis won’t take you to the bed until you marry me.”

And then she run a little bit into the left direction for a bit and say.

“I think you should move one millimeter from there or you will zap by a big thunder!”

When I move a bit, the glass behind me are broken and Black shoes with black stockings appeared from outside the window and went inside along with a lightning around her. A girl in a purple long skirt with red hues slowly shows up and is followed by white hands covered in a black coat with a equal blazer inside with a purple shirt. Girl with The girl with short purple hair wearing the beret then landed and then run quiet fast and then stop in front of that gate. Then she claps and suddenly a thunder are summons from her hand and explode that room.

“Astagfirullah, I almost became a French toast.”

I said while shocked by the thunder flash. For a while I just stop to move and suddenly remembered that the shocky zappy girl name was Michelle. And then I say.

“H-hey, your name is Michelle. Right?”

“Yes, I am. And you must be the new king and leader of our country. Lord Zein right? It’s a pleasure to meet you again for maybe… 4 times. I guess.”

She said with flat voice like she just dead inside. But that is true, I see her eyes are just like that. I think she have a problem on her life but same as me I have my own problem. I didn’t ask her why her face are looks so dead, because it’s very rude to ask a personal problem and I don’t very interested with her problem BUT, she suddenly said.

“I have so many problems. But it’s alright I can handle it. And I think you might be asking in your head why she knows me? It’s simple my Lord. I have the Claivoire esp.” She said.

“OHH YES, I just want to ask you that thing.”

“And, I read from some book (Well, actually the spirit tells me about her when we were still at the office) that you are the one of the strongest sky kingdom’s daughter. But why do you want help my citizens?” I continued the chit chat but then, her face are turned to be awful. I’m surprised and spontaneously says.

“Ohh, I’m sorry I didn’t mean to… And yea by the way. What is your mission here?”

I don’t want to make her mad so I do what can I do. But then, she run to me and then without reason she fall into my chest and say.

“Can I take care your citizens? Please I love them and I want to protect them! Even I have to fight you… I will protect them even I should kill my own father.”

Well… Weird. But, I’m not surprised by it maybe, I know the feeling she has now because I want to protect this dimension at any cost. Even if I should leave that dimension, but I can’t.

“Do whatever you want as long as you don’t get in my path.”

“I know how your feeling, I love this dimension too! But I can’t leave my dimension. Because of that you should protect at least this country for the sake of this world.”

“Ekhm, you haven’t answered my question. EKHM!”

“Ohh yes, I’m sorry. My mission is to help the new king to do his job. But, it seems that you’re finished your job.”

She turn her face for maybe for 15° to the right side of her and then. I’m blushing because she’s very cute.

“No. Not yet, he will come soon.”

“Who is he?”

“I don’t know but you should get outta here quickly!”

“Got it! Be careful my Lord.”

“Sure!” She then fly away and destroy a window using her thunderbolt and jump down.

“Now then… let’s find some food. I need to restore my energy before I use that power.”

I walk back into the kitchen’s room while hoping there’s some food in there.

“Where is that boy, he’s gone too long I hope to there’s nothing happened.”

I’m feeling very worried because the boy didn’t show his face for more than 30 minutes long. Then I look that girl that are still eating the rest of her food.

“Seems like you’re enjoying your own world don’t cha? Hahaha.”

I said with a flat face while the voice are sounded like I was sarcastic. Then I start to looking for him. I walk into that corridor and look to the left side, I see the window are broken. I walk reaching that window and then I look into the outside of that window, I see nothing except a body when I look down. And when I look up I see nothing, I couldn’t find him and then I say.

“Is this Zein’s doing? If it is, he so powerful I can admit or maybe there’s another member of the wings elite queens who came here… I should find him faster. Maybe he finds some troubles in there.”

I’m walking from the first floor to the 6th floor. Only to find him, I kill the rest of the agent and see all the room one by one with so detail. Then, I find him at the kitchen. I walk into his direction and then. Brak! The sound of the door slammed from the direction I entered earlier and I then heard angry stomping of feet and even see who the culprit is.

“Oww, WHAT WAS ALL THAT FOR! DON’T YOU SEE I’M EATING RIGHT HERE?! HUH!” He said it with very angry face.

“What are you doing here? You make those trash at their own room fainted right? And you broke the window, doesn’t it?”

I said while grabbing his shoulders, he put my hands down and then says.

“I’m running out of stamina, and it wasn’t me who made such of that thing. For now I only can use the wind power and water. Nothing else, the culprit behind everything is the girl name Michelle and one woman who looks 5 years different to me even though technically it’s 500 years different from me here.”

I’m surprised to hear that both of them come here, then I ask him a several questions.

“What element did they used?”

“Is it lightning, and fire. Or something else?”

“How was the pressure’s feels to you. Is it strong or just normal?”

He suddenly shut my mouth with a food then he eat the food that remains on his hand and then says.

“Shh shhh shsh! Wow… wow, easy. I’ll answer all of it. The elements they’ve been used is lighting and fire yes. And the pressure is too heavy for me.”

“And then, I’ll ask you. Where’s that girl? Wasn’t she with you?” And then, that girl suddenly shouting from afar.

“Hey… where are you guys? I’m very tired help…. Wait, Michelle what are you doin- ahh.”

We both run out of the room. Suddenly I saw the girl is outside the window with her stomach are tied by a some kind of bolt rope by Michelle.

“Hey!” He said with a serious voice and face.

“What is your name?”

It’s very makes my grudge raise up because he said it using his iconic flat voice after he asked the girl that being kidnapped by Michelle’s name and he still used his serious face. Then, I clench my fist and do the uppercut. While saying.

“WHY DO YOU EVEN ASK THAT?!!!”

“HONYAAA!!!”

Then he bounced off the ground until half of his body hit the ceiling above. My sanity are back to normal and then when I’m seeing his body on that ceiling I say.

“H-Hey, are you alright? I’m sorry I Will put you down.”

“Whoa, there’s so many mouse here. Wait, haa…. Ohh, SHIT.” The vessel said with a freaked out voice.

“Zein, what’s wrong?” The spirit said while pulling him off to the ground.

“H-hey, ‘he’ that both of you and Vanigrad said will come in 3 hours from back then right? Is that the freaking beast that you guys were talking.” The vessel pointing his face through the hole that he made with his body.

“Wait…lemme see the timer.”

The bell rings and then in a little bit tremulous voice along with a face looks very despaired he says. “Holy Fuck, it is him! We’re late.”
