Chapter 67: I don't like what is happening
Chapter 67: I don't like what is happening
The entire roof of the underground cities shines like the interconnected stars in the night sky. The raw ehr flows through the spell cast by the 11 gods, strengthening it further. All eyes turn to the roof. It looks like they are standing under a real night sky.
The piece of the spell glues back like it was never taken apart. Andareanesi watches the boy and the girl standing atop the giant spirit beast with a thousand eyes. The girl has no idea what she has just done. Everyone can see her body sucking the ehr directly and use it on the old spell formed by the 11 gods. In front of everyone in the middle realm, she has just demonstrated that she is the new Renasir.
She slaps her hands like she is slapping away the non-existent dust. She turns around and hugs the boy next to her, not caring about the eyes of everyone. Kyo pecks her lips once and smiles. She is happy when she is doing magic. He is also happy when she is happy like this.
Just then, there is a roar from the crowd that surrounds them. "RENASIR!!!"
Kresi jumps in surprise. "What the...?"
"RENASIR!!!" The crowd screams to them. "THE NEXT RENASIR OF IRAVAN!"
She covers her ears. "What's going on?"
Mogrok can see that people are crowding up around them. "There are too many people. I don't like what is happening."
Kresi finds Andareanesi looking up at her smugly. "He tricked me. He wanted me to reveal my identity to the masses."
Mogrok has figured that out. "Master, the situation is grave. We are surrounded. I think that he wanted to trap us for something else."
"Mogrok, use your arms to put us somewhere far away. Distract them and then, meet Deia and Damin. Bring them to the gate. We will leave this place now."
Mogrok grabs Kyo and Kresi with his one arm. He stretches it and puts them on the roof of a casino on the opposite side of the city. He shrinks into a size of the palm and runs through the crowd at an excellent speed toward 4-star city to collect the Seer and the Dragon. The crowd is shocked to see the giant arm and then, the spirit beast disappearing suddenly.
Kresi and Kyo jump from the roof of the casino. Kyo manipulates the dark ehr to change the air around them. They gently float down on the street. They run toward the gate situated in the middle of the 9 cities. There are still people chasing them.
Kresi cusses the halfling lord of the underground cities. He could have warned her about this. She has fallen right into the trap. When only the Mirins and the chosen one had known, she got kidnapped by the chosen one and the Mirins came to take her away. What would happen if the whole world knew? She will never have a normal life.
"Master." Damin appears in front of them. "Do you want to escape?"
Kyo gives him a nod. "We are going toward the gate."
"I can open one from here," He calls the gate. A dark gate of black bricks with silver dragons and shiny purple runes emerges in front of them. There is a powerful aura. "Humans have surrounded the gate in the middle of the cities. We cannot reach it unless we plow over all the humans. We don't have time."
"RENASIR!" Kresi holds Kyo's hands when she hears a scream. Someone has seen them. The sound of footsteps is getting closer. "RENASIR IS THERE."
Kresi asks with an ominous voice. "Where does it go?"
"Sor Kaya." He pauses and looks at Kyo. "Capital of the Dema continent."
She grabs Kyo's wrist and tries to move away from the gate. "We can't go there, Kyo."
Damin blocks her path and clasps her arm tightly. "You have taken enough advantage of the Dark God's repressed state. Now, I know that you are the Renasir. I cannot trust you more."
"Let go of her." Kyo scowls at Damin. Damin lets go of her. With his left hand, he gives her a push toward the gate to Sor Kaya. She stumbles on her feet and loses her balance. The gate is opened and pulls her toward it. She widens her eyes when she feels the sucking force.
It happens in less than a second. Kyo is running toward her, trying to grab her hand. A rune of wind escapes her palm and hits his body. It pushes him back until his back hits the wall. He looks at her with a bewildered expression. Before Damin can take a step toward Kyo to help him, a rope formed of raw ehr comes out of her left hand and ties around his foot. He stumbles the same way Kresi stumbled and falls toward the gate.
In 4-star city, Deia wakes up after a strange dream. She finds Damin gone. He must have gone downstairs. She dresses quickly. She can feel his ehr throbbing in her vein. Feeling happy, she goes to find Kresi. Her room is empty. Everyone is gone.
She goes downstairs and asks the innkeeper about it.
"She left hours ago." The innkeeper tells her quietly, "You better not leave now. The new Renasir made an appearance in the 3rd city. People are going crazy. It's rumored that she is the last Renasir who is the crucial key to save the world from the Harbinger and the Dark God. There is a new prophecy too."
New renasir?
Suddenly, a vision appears in front of her eyes. Damin and Kresi falling into the gate. Kyo is desperately trying to dig the ground where the gate was. Mogrok is running toward the inn.
The vision is too clear. As if it is happening right now. She runs outside the inn and waits. After 10 minutes, she sees Mogrok running toward her.
"We have to leave." Mogrok is relieved to find her outside. "Master is waiting for us at the gate in the middle of the cities."
Deia looks at him gravely. "Mogrok, I don't think that she is there."
