Chapter 27 - Bridge Of Gaza (2)

WARNING: R*PE AND ABUSED

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

When the child heard Sylvester's sentence, he immediately retreated backwards. His body tremble into a severe anxiety. He hesitantly glance at the black robe youth and his heart never stop shaking by this intense confrontation.

H-How did he know...he was not really a ghost.

Only Sylvester smiled at the child. He squatted down and met the shaking eyes of the ghost. His gentle prominent smile was both comfortable and scary in the child's perspective. He can't help but cry in grievance. All those miserable circumtances that he experience came back in his mind once more with just a single flaunt of belief.

Tears drip in the corner of his eyes as his body became slightly transparent. Iavis seeing this can't help but be stupefy and gawked at the black youth in amusement.

"I-I'm not...really a ghost..."the child choked, his unwillingness to accept made the two only feel sympathy, "I-I'm not...m-my brother said I'm n-not a ghost."

Sylvester slowly patted the head of the young man, "What's your name?"he asked in a soft tone.

Iavis also squatted down making him perceive the serene appearance of the black robe man. He can't help but feel a familiar feeling in this infrequent physiognomy. His eyes darkened.

The child lifted his face, meeting the peculiar eyes of the man, "I'm N-Navier."

Sylvester nodded and slowly risen from the ground. He sighed and turned his head towards the golden man. But he saw him still staring at Navier in bewilder

"How did you die?"Iavis queried not hiding the vulgar on his tone.

Navier stiffened and bite his lips as he spoke, "I-I was killed by those man..but my brother save me and retrieve my soul..."

Sylvester pitied the child. Navier was still young and innocent. He was still novice about the betrayal and cruel method of human's heart. Indeed. Individual will do anything just to survive. Including sacrificing a sinless soul. He suspire in commiseration.

Iavis furrowed his eyebrow and did not speak to break the illusion of the child. He long knew that those evil brother only used this innocent child to escape in the clutch of those so-called unknown individuals. He now realize how the child can use powers, because in this dimension all living things was restricted on using any energy force. But nonliving things was different. Verily, he now perceive the reason why did the orb turned to dust when Iavis injected his mana. Certainly, that mysterious orb only devoured spiritual components of each soul, it was no effect in first try but the more you use the orb, the more the soul can weakened. That's why he can feel the weakness of the soul of the child. Once that orb surely devour his soul, it was unknown what creation can it build.

"Child, do you know where did the mysterious men came from?"Iavis asked with a faintly subdued tone.

Navier nodded but immediately shake his head, "I know but brother said I can't leave this area until he come back."

Iavis feel conflicted. His eyes peer at the black robe man in asking for assistant. He was not heartless enough to destroy the phantasm of the child about his brother.

Sylvester furrowed his eyebrow and slowly risen. He grinned at the golden man and shifted his gaze towards the child.

"Your brother betrayed you."Sylvester straight away declared.

Navier can't still process the sudden truth and just looked at Sylvester in confusion. Little by little, his eyes shook violently.

"N-No...w-what are you saying?! B-Brother did not betray me!"

Sylvester frowned. "Your mind was too novice to acknowledge the reality in this world. Allow me to unveil all those mask emotions your brother wore in order to be fitted in that phantasm of yours."

The child went silent and countless memories invaded his mind when Sylvester put his hands on the top of his head.

Navier grew up in a poor household. When he was born his mother died and only his grandmother, who was the only remaining relative attended his need. Nevertheless his grandmother was still old, so he started helping her when he reached to three. The relationship between the two was joyous. Until one day, his father who ran away from his mother returned to their home. His father was an adventurer who was alcoholic and even sadistic. When he remember the existence of the woman who told him that she was pregnant with his child, he went to find them only to perceive that his son, who he thought was having a hard time was cheerfully healthy with his grandmother.

His father was furious. He believe that after he saw his son, his child will depend on him and he will finally not feel useless. But after seeing the situation, not only his child was scared of him, he don't even acknowledge him as his father!

That time, he got drunk and murdered the old lady in front of the three year old boy. No matter how hard the boy wanted to stop him, he was just beaten and abused by his scum father. In the morning Navier wake up in the cold ground and saw the lifeless corpse of his grandmother.

His eyes widened in shock and instantly tears pooled down on his eyes. No matter how he tried to call his grandmother, the old lady only replied with a tranquil silence. His young heart broke into pieces as the only relative he has was completely gone.

Hi father arrived three days later, he saw his son still hugging the corpse of his grandmother. Disgust flashed in his eyes, and immediately disposed the rotten body of the old lady while his son was still asleep. When Navier wake up, he perceive that he was on a room with the shackles on his feet. He tried to call for help but only a chilly breeze answered his plead. It was dark. It was untenanted and vacant room. Only the sounds of shackles was heard in the whole area.

After two days, his father arrived with a food on his hands. He smiled at the weak Navier and his heart was filled with joy when his son stared at him with expectation. He patted his head gently and his son gobbled the food. Only this way, he experience being able to rely on.

The routine lasted for a year. His father will only returned after two days to fed him foods and left after that. Navier did not bother to escape, his malnourished and dirty body was not new to him. But in his mind, he was scared at his father whenever he ignore him. He will be beaten and left unconscious.

But one day, his father who was old and ugly was rejected by the beauty and went home in anger. He immediately vent his frustration on him. He pleaded and tried to stop him but his small and weak body only accepted his punches and kick. His father who in the past was surrounded by beauties, suddenly experienced being rejected cannot accept this fact.

And his eyes glued on the lying youth. Although the child was dirty, his appearance was similar to his mother, who he remember was a great beauty. Sexual desire invaded his mind, he smiled wickedly and Navier only feel huge anxiety as his father continuously approached him. His cries covered the whole night as his father vent his desire on his unripe body.

In the morning, he thought his father won't do those immoral things on him anymore, but his expectations failed. Day by day, his body was always been penetrated by that foreign object and the situation lasted for a half a year. But one moment, his wished to escape was fulfill by a mysterious brother who had passes by.

Although he had no idea on the identity of the stranger, his heart melted and immediately follow him after he succesfully escape.

That stranger treated him just like his grandmother. He was feed and dress nicely, and even he was teached to use his powers Despite the fact that he had no idea what technique he was using, he did not question and just do what the brother told him to do. And one night, a domain was created in their place. It was a dimension that was full of terror and spooky. His brother warned him to use his power to escape in this dimension, only to find out that his soul has been seperated on his body. He was scared at first but the brother told him not worry and he was relief for a bit. Little by little more people keep appearing in the dimension, and none of the individuals knew that he was now a ghost. He continued to use his power to nourished the orb his brother given him but his soul feel uncomfortable. Of course he ignored that kind of sensation, he was happy to be a great help in his brother unknown escapade.

The tragedy happened when the sudden arrival of the black men, and abduct all the people who arrived at this dimension. His brother pulled him and made him hide on the tree. He feel fearful and panic, but his brother promise that he will came back after he find a way to escape in this place. He trusted his brother so he nodded.

Only to find out that his brother, who was so good to him was just an illusion.

In an abyss of the night, the chilly wind breeze encircled the tragic ambience. Fallen leaves gently flutters into a coordinate trail and in the center of the grievous air was a child, crying for an unfair circumtances.
