CHAPTER 49: A Dream Or Is It?
Zero's Point Of View
After ensuring that she fall asleep I covered her body with a blanket so that she won't feel so cold. After doing that I also tried sleep beside her. Until I dozed off and finally slept. Then I woke up finding myself in a dark blank space. "Where am I?". I asked but my voice echoed that gave me chills. Then upon knowing it I became so wary of it thinking thay there might have something lurking here with me silently crawling before attacking me. I tried to use magic but I can't muster any mana at all so I used Ki.
"Don't worry too much Zero". An old man's voice echoed that made me be more careful. "Who are you? How do you know me?". I asked to the voice then suddenly there was a door so I opened and entered it. I then became teleported into a Room in Four personilities emerge gathered into a Table as they were drinking tea or coffee. Then the oldest looking Man looked at me. "Come here young man and let you accompany us". He said in a calm voice. So as a Young man I obeyed as a sign and act of respect to them.
"Oh child, don't be that tense really". The young Looking said with her sweet tone. "W-Where am I?". I suddenly asked them. "This is the Realm of Reincarnated Legendary People". The King like figure says. Did they summon me her?. "Yes we summoned here my child". Upon hearing the phrase My Child I looked at the person who talked. He was a Fine looking person with his exposed upper body filled with Prehistoric Tattoos. Then I realized something. "Who are you people?". I asked as I started to sweat. "Oh sorry, I am Merlin". The Old one introduced himself that made me feel uneasy.
"I am Tamamo-no-Mae". The Lady says to me. "I'm King Arthur Pendragon". The King figured man says that made a more seriousness to the atmosphere. "Don't tell me you're-". I didn't finished saying my question when he nod. "I am Lam-Ang". He said that made me feel so out of place upon hearing them. "Weren't you all Legendary Peope, Why would you all let mebe here?". I daid with composure trying to hide my uneasiness and being in a inner tension towards them being with me a normal human who suddenly summoned to another world upon death.
"We won't deny that we were really great, however we won't be able to help those in need". King Arthur said that intrigued me. "To tell you the truth there is a big problem This World will be facing". Lady Tamamo No-Mae says that disturbed me. "And what is it that?". I said disregarding myself in front of them. "There is this group who wanted to ressurect the demon lord". The Sage Merlin says. "That's a very disturbing". I said with serious tone for this is a very Serious matter. "Yes it is, Those Witches even in this world they've caused numerous mischief". Lam-Ang stated thst made me curious. "What do you mean by that?". I said asking him to tell me.
"You didn't know? does that mean you're not aware of them even though you cane from there". He said that made me shake my head implying that I wasn't knowledgeable of the matter he just have said to me. "Then no choicebut to tell you, you're aware of the existence of Aswang aren't you". He said that make me nod. "Yes, they were humans whom anandoned being human and transforms themselves into flesh and infant eating monsters". I said to him. "Apparently they were the work of witches and shamans and their trickery". He said that made me listened too carefully.
"So you mean that they tricked them to be one? But how?". I asked with a humble questioning tone of voice. "Their Ancestor was of a tribal Rajah, his tribe was tempted by a Shaman to challenge some tribes but then his tribesmen were slaughtered upon doing so, Being The Rajah he was devastated and so the Witch appeared after him, tricking him that he would gain superhuman abilities if he consumed a dark stone pearl not knowing it was cursed. He did get them but in turn he became a monster". He said that made me understand.
"What was the difference between a Mage and a Witch and Shaman?". I asked with curiosity. to them. "Witches were originally Mages but they wrre using Black Magic and because they were using such Attribute they then pursue searching fir Immortality, and Shaman s were humans who uses nature to do their biddings". Merlin says explaining it to me that the Others agreed upon hearing it. Thus, I looked at them with a questioning look for it is a topic you won't let slide for just a measly talk.
"We'll be entrusting you the Safety of This World". King Arthur said that gave a very uneasy feeling. "Is it fine to entrust that to an irrelevant person like me?". I asked that made them look at each other. "Zero, think of it how can you communicate with us if we weren't related to each other?". Sage Merlin asked that made me clueless. "I don't know?". I said asking it either. "It's because we were indirectly related to each other, maybe one of our descendants became your parents". Lady Tamamo Noe-Mae says with confidence. "That isn't true Right, I might have consider being Hero Lam-Ang's Descendant but for all of you to be is 1 in a Million times to happen". I said that made them shake their heads.
"Don't say that dear, it is possible because of Colonialism that happened so eloping between nationality occurs". She said that made me be shaken because of realization. "And even if we didn't contact you, you will eventually know and decide to protect somebody you dears and loved". King Arthur stated that made me nod because if that really happened I'll definitely protect those girls. I was focused that I didn't knew Lady Tamamo Noe-Mae walked near me. "Speaking of Love, I won't debny if you really did make out with Kitsune even if you were both my Grandchildren ". She whispered at my ears that make me beet red I was so surprised. "Oh, It's such a shame that we just met a little time but we need to send you back, then as a gift take this". The Hero Lam-Ang said as they hold unto me before my sight darkened. Thus, immediately opening my eyes as I get off from my sleep with intense sweat and heavy breathing.
