Chapter 111: HE and HIM
*Swosh*
I heard an object cutting through the air. I got goosebumps and my hair stood on end.
I felt a great danger, my senses were telling me that if I didn't move, I was going to die immediately. So I did what my body commanded, move.
I jumped to the right, a big jump, landing about 5 meters from where I was originally.
Without a doubt, a big jump.
*Crash
The object that was going to hit me crashed into the ground, scattering dust around.
"Who are you?" I asked although I wasn't interested. I wanted to know if the person in front of me was a human or a monster.
The aura covering my body became more intense, combining with the strange Mana Theos gave me.
"Hmm," the person in front of me didn't respond.
I felt a movement, it was approaching me at great speed.
I could see absolutely nothing, not even the Mana of Theos could shine bright enough to make me see.
So, with no choice, I had to make another jump, another jump to the left.
*Crash*.
It was the same; the person or object crashed on the ground while I jumped about 5 meters to the left.
My eyes became more fixed on the figure attacking me; all I could see were those purple eyes staring madly at me.
From the location of the two eyes, it appeared to be a humanoid figure, or at least he was about 6'2".
"Good, good," I muttered repeatedly to myself.
From my shadows, I summon my two shadow wolves, even larger and more powerful than the ones from the other time.
But the guy in front of me didn't move, staring at me.
I narrowed my eyes. From my storage ring, I pulled out two daggers and quickly wrapped them with my shadow aura.
"Who are you?", just as I was fully prepared for combat, the guy in front of me raised his voice.
His question was the same as the one I had said to him earlier. But thanks to him raising his voice, I was able to realize... The person in front of me is a woman.
Possibly a woman between the ages of 40 to 50, as her voice did not convey youth, but old age and wisdom for some reason, and also, of course, madness.
"I'm the person you've been attacking, OK?" she says, this time I was the one who lunged at her.
I was fighting blind, I couldn't even see the other person's range. However, he had already attacked me twice, and both times, I dodged; I shouldn't be so powerful.
My thoughts made me grab a bit of confidence, confidence that I shouldn't have taken.
*Cut*.
A breeze blew past me. It only asks to move a little, but it wasn't fast enough to completely dodge the cut.
Looking at my ribs, on the side you could see a deep cut that was constantly bleeding.
I chose to block the bleeding by creating a kind of tape with my shadows.
Looking back, the person with purple eyes looked at me again.
"Who are you?" he repeated, his voice changed, this time they seemed an almost divine voice, a voice that gave the sensation and urgency to want to kneel on the spot.
Out of fear or nervousness, there was a lump in my throat, but my eyes were focused on the purple eyes.
"I am... Luna, Luna Roy," Finally, I decided to say my name.
That last attack, which he could barely dodge, and that voice... I felt as if the person in front of me was holding back for me to kill me.
I wasn't at his level. I dodged that attack only by luck and even so, I felt as if the person in front of me had to slow down the attack so that it wouldn't cut me in two.
I felt pitiful and disappointed with myself. But what could I do, fight? If I had the choice not to fight this guy, I would choose it right away.
After saying my name, there was a deadly silence. Cold sweat appeared on my forehead, even droplets of my sweat falling to the ground.
I am nervous and scared, very scared.
In my mind, I went through several ideas to ask for help from Theos and Camila, but I didn't know if they could come too, even though it was almost impossible for them to hear my scream.
Besides, that could alert the enemy in front of me, choosing to attack me.
So, I patiently waited for the guy to speak.
Only about 5 minutes passed, but I felt that the wait was eternal, endless. It was like torture.
Until he finally spoke: "Luna Roy… You know, you shouldn't be here... Much less act like this."
I couldn't help but show confusion at her words. What exactly does she mean? Why couldn't she be here? And why can't I act like this?
Her answer only brought more questions than answers to my mind; still, on the outside, I remained relatively calm.
My eyes at first showed surprise but then calmed.
"What exactly do you mean?", I asked suspiciously.
Again, silence reigned in the atmosphere. But this time I was used to it, patiently waiting for the answer.
"You... You shouldn't be together with him... That's not your destiny, your life wasn't created for that... If you don't fulfill your destiny, HE will be more powerful, HE will rule everything, HE's creatures will do destruction for the world..."
"You, and your boyfriend, that man who thinks he'll be able to take on everyone, but what he doesn't know is that... HE is currently a thousand steps ahead of The Fallen, and every step The Fallen takes is a thousand and one steps HE is taking."
The whole hole was filled with the voice of the guy in front of me, a crazy, disturbing, and demonic voice. It had changed again; the divinity voice was completely gone; I replaced it with this.
But, I had listened to his every word and for some reason, every word made my soul tremble and remember things, fuzzy events in my mind that I couldn't even see.
Who is HE? What does Theos have to do with him? Are they enemies? But, according to the subject, Theos doesn't stand a chance when facing HIM.
He's creatures? I couldn't understand much of his words, but I kept him calm and collected on the surface.
Until the creature spoke again:
"HE... He is coming soon... And when HE comes, everyone will become puppets for HIM, even the Gods will kneel and be controlled by HIM... As it happened to me..."
