chapter 9

I never believed in miracles, it was only for the privileged but after being reborn with these weird powers inside me I'm doubting my morals and thinking about my sanity. who really am I? what is this power inside me that makes me so void yet clear, what is the purpose of me even being born in this world?

The white light blurring my whole vision finally dimmed, and after a while, I could finally see my surrounding. i couldn't see my body, my arms, legs as if they vanished what remained was my consciousness in this unknown place.

a dark dungeon cave it is wet and dull lights coming through enigma stone it was blue colour one of the most common natural mana stones founded in dungeons or mountains. even though blue enigma are common among other enigma it was still precious stone if made into jems. but just what is this dungeon.

"hey, found any clues any Barghest¹?", one of the man with brown hair and sharp facial cuts came from the outer layer of the dungeon to the inside part where the Enigma stone in crystal shapes were shining a little brighter.

that's my father, in full Armor what's he doing here...wait...is this the dungeon he was into before his death. am I going to watch how my father died with his people.

"we still haven't seen any signs of it, sir", one of the other knight said.

"keep patrolling, Barghest are ferocious creatures and when are aiming for their king. stay focused", Bronson, my father ordered and went further inside the dungeon to check if there were any casualties. the further he was going towards the dungeon the brighter the enigma were becoming showing its quality.

once he went a little deeper into it the walls were wider and elevated. There was a no entry sign drawn a further away from him. He stood in front of it and stared at nothingness for a while. A deep sigh leaving his mouth, i could feel his loneliness and hopelessness inside of him. He knew this was not a Barghest king's dungeon but just a basic cave with enigma stones, it was a false case by the emperor to stop him from meeting his family.

His hands went inside his pocket and an antique stopwatch came out. It was beautifully carved and u could feel it must mean a lot to him, he clicked opened it to find two children, probably him and my mother in the photo. He sighed again and kissed it. He loved her...he might have loved me too...if he was alive.

"wait who are you guys!!", shouting voices of guards were coming from the outer layer of the dungeon. father who heard such noise ran back to it.

"its unauthorized location!"

"stop or we won't be hold accountable for the further actions"

noises of shouting was coming from the outer aise of the cave. hearing it Bronson closed his watch and went outside for a look but suddenly all the shouts were silenced. He ran towards the previous noises but he was shocked by the time he came out.

"what...the hell happened..", he whispered to himself.

dead bodies of armed shoulders with the claw marks of a beast in different part of there bodies were seen. some people's eyes were ripped out, somes arms, some were missing arms, few had there whole chest marked with claws. but it took him only few seconds to come here and this whole area was plundered within it.

"well hello mr.Bronson D. brown, nice to see you there", a voice which had an robotic tons, as if a lot of different robot voices were put together into making one.

father turned back in range and horror for his loss and terror of the future, what sall he do? what shall he doesn't? does he have the power? these mixed emotions were so strong that my head were hurting. but what invited him were two men in black hood and a werid symbol drawn in the front of there hood and white colour, a crescent shape was there.

"who are you people? what do you need?", Bronson interrogated, trying to wedge his sword.

"it doesn't matter who we are but your life ends here", the man in another hood said that.

I couldn't see them but the sinister and malicious intent inside them were precedent. Father tried to stand to but before the sword could touch them a ferocious creatures jumped above him ripping out his chest and killing him brutally.

"may the blessings of moon fall upon you.", they turned there back and in the back side of their hood a beautiful white flowers was painted. I have never seen such a magical yet lonely flower in my life ever. And like magic they vanished in thin air leaving the corpses with dead eyes.

the next thing I knew i returned to the church but my head it hurt so much as if I was burning and being sliced down by ice at the same time. The stone in my forehead I could feel it ripping off my skin and peeling outside. I cried and whimpered with the outrageous pain and my surrounding was starting to blur but this time I fought myself to keep my consciousness in.

and slowly the pain drifted and what welcomed me was a room full of silence and my mother face which was filled with pain.

she wiped my tears with her thumb, her lips quivering, "my child...what is happening to you..? am I a cursed...my downfall is slicing into you...?"

she wailed her voice echoing in the whole wide room and in silence the nobles looked at her with their heads bowed. I don't know what's happening to me and the events inside this world but something is for sure, father didn't die because of some Barghest, this world is really and lastly even in this body of one month something is changing inside me.
