Chereads / The Shadow Stone: Salvation / Chapter 37 - Saving Koron

Chapter 37 - Saving Koron

Raion: We have to do something quickly! Koron cannot die.

Veter: I'm working on it, Raion. Please just be patient. I'll use this spell to speed up the process on undoing korons spell. Since.. unfortunately, Koron is dying. This will be able to undo his spell. Ice cursed Magic: Frozen shatter.

Raion Let's out a yelp and throw both his hands up.

Raion: Be patient! what do you mean?! we're wasting valuable time here.

Baskia: Raion? your hands... Koron.

Raion looks down and notices Koron slowly, bleeding out more.

Raion: My hands! uhhh. I need to focus.

Veter: Raion, as I said, please just trust both of us. I.. we are not going to let anything happen here.

Baskia: Veter is right, Raion. Veter magic will be done soon. Just mere moments. Then it'll be my turn.

Veter: This spell only takes four minutes for it to be completely activated. It turns certain magic spells and abilities to ice, eventually freezing it and breaking the other spells.

Baskia: Veter? Isn't it the more that you begin using your curse magic, the more it starts taking over?

Raion: Curse magic? What are you two talking about?

Veter and Baskia: Are you serious?!

Raion: What? Is it something I said?

Baskia: Wait, has Raion heard you use your curse magic before?

Veter: I'm not sure actually if he has. Now that I think of it.

Baskia: You're right, nor can I. I found out back in that town while we were looking for the whistle rub.

Veter starts to remember back to what Baskia had said to him after he found out about his curse.

Veter: It seems like ages ago when you found out.

Baskia: It really does, doesn't it.

Baskia and Veter both exchange glances at one another. Both hold a smile.

Raion: Hello? Is anyone going to tell me what this curse is about?!

Veter: I guess there's no sense in delaying it any longer.

Baskia looks over at Veter to give him the "It'll be okay." Look. Veter begins to speak but is interrupted.

Baskia: Hold on, look Veter. Your magic has worked fully. I can move my leg out now.

Raion: You're right! Does it hurt?

Baskia: Only just a bit. But I'll be fine, no cause to worry here.

Veter: Are you sure ?

Baskia: Yes, it's just a minor flesh wound it'll heal on its own. Keeping Koron alive is more important at this time.

Raion takes his glance towards Veter, almost as if he's asking permission to agree with Baskia. Veter nods his head and smiles in agreement.

Raion: Yes, I agree. Once Koron is awake and better. I'll see that you are taken care of. Veter, that includes you. I... I wish that..

Veter: Say no more Raion.

Baskia: I should head over and work on fixing Koron up to the best of my ability.

Baskia drags himself over to where Koron is lying on the ground. Raion's hands are still applying pressure to his wound.

Baskia: There's two spells that I can use on Koron right now. I'll use Mind Control: Unmindful memories. This will briefly make him forget about what happened to him. Tricking his own mind into thinking he's not in pain.

Veter: How will this help?

Baskia. Well, it's more for us. With the spell I'll be using to temporarily fix his wound. He will be in a tremendous amount of pain, and I need him to be able to stay still during the time the spells work.

Raion: Will this wake him up as well?

Baskia: It can, yes. Then I'll use Mind Control : Threads of Death.

Raion: Threads of death?

Baskia: It's one of my spells that acts as a defense or attack spell. It takes the different molecules and fibers of dead cells around us.

Veter: Dead cells? As in, what exactly?

Raion: I'm not liking the sound of this.

Baskia: I mean from us, our dead skin or hair follicles. It takes them and makes a temporary graft to cover Korons wound. It only lasts for a few days.

Raion: We only need a few minutes in order for him to tell us exactly what we need.

At this very moment, a light fade of fog begins to grow around him.

Raion: And then I'll personally kill himself myself.
