Chapter 7 - A bad dream

Evan could realize he had slept for a long time. He could hear the occasional weeping sound of his mom. Evan tried hard to open his eyes but only his eyelashes fluttered.

Olivia noticed the change of expression in Ivan's eyes. She quickly said, "Child don't worry. It is just a bad dream. Once you wake up, everything will be over."

Evan had dreamed about a strange place in his dream. A completely gray world where a huge war was going on. Brutal slaughter was happening everywhere. Gigantic beasts were floating in the sky. Warriors were looking like ants compared to them. Blood had covered the entire place.

Some powerful warriors could be seen fighting in the air. Their mighty techniques were blasting even the gigantic beasts away.

Among the warriors two groups were notable.

one group was covered with dazzling brilliance and other group was looking gloomy. They shrouded in pure darkness. It looked like light element was hiding in fear of them.

Group shrouded in darkness was fighting, fiercely. But they were outnumbered. And despite their might, some of them were dying in every exchange. Looking at them while they were struggling to death, Evan felt a indescribable pain in his heart. Evan feeled like a hidden part of his heart, connected to them.

He again lost himself in deep sleep. A long time passed, in this way. When he tried to awake, he listened a strange voice calling to him. He tried to listen to that voice. That voice felt strangely familiar to him. Yet, he could not recall anyone with this voice. Actually Evan already listened to this voice quite a few time already. But he thought it to be a part of that strange dream. So, he had decided to ignore the voice earlier.

Evan focused hard to listen to that strange voice. Initially that voice was faint, but gradually it became clear.

"Little prince,this lowly servant is Serberus. I have escorted you to this remote unknown planet. We have successfully sent your soul away from our Eternal Moon empire.Your soul was injured in the process. But a rest of twelve years, managed to nourish your soul."

Evan became confused by this sudden inflow of strange informations. He asked in a puzzling manner. "Who are you,what is the soul and is the dream I have seen real?"

Some time passed after Evan asked his question. He was just going to give up on that voice ,thinking it was also a part of dream. But to his surprise, he again heard the same voice.A voice could be heard in his mind sighing, "Forgive me little prince, I am in too much of a hurry. Gradually, you will recall everything and you will understand even if I not explain."

Evan was only twelve year old this year. This kind of stuffs was pretty complicated for his young brain. But from childhood, Evan was pretty clever and quick witted. He processed the informations quickly in his mind and although he could not understand many informations, he found this owner of this voice rather trustable. According to the voice, he was injured.

Evan asked ,"Is there any solution for my injury? Is my awakening process failed for this injury?"

That voice replied instantly, "Yes, you could not introduce heavenly elements into your body, because of your soul injury. I have supressed your soul injury previously. That's why, your injury remain unnoticed. Now you need to go see a healer. Once your soul is treated, you can understand everything I have said."
