Chapter 7 - the past world (2)

Egues, A family that we thought was pointless in terms of ability. Every shape they created has the ability to manipulate time. It is possible to go from infinite sides to four sides of a shape, but it comes at a cost... We don't know how to properly access that sphere, but we did discover that it required an elf sacrifice to bring you to the appointed time.Without the death of one elf, it can transport you to the past or the future, which is particularly dangerous because transporting you to the past can drastically alter the future; a butterfly effect.

"This man will be the one to bring you back to the time where you are," the elder says as the guy opens the door and enters, "do—do you summoned me yo—your majesty?" Says the elf (Shido), who is 15 years old, his appearance is very feminine. "Yes, my child... Your mission is to make that time manipulation thing and help this girl, to show me that you are not simply capable of doing nothing." the elder responded his eyes is like a galaxy as he opened it. Shido nodded in a shy way.

He did exactly as the elder instructed, putting both of his hands together and closing his eyes. A green light shone to the side of his palm, brightening as long as he held his hands together. After a few minutes, the light inside his hands faded. When he opened his palm, a green diamond shaped was formed, which was so beautiful that Victoria's eyes sparkled and Jey gave a dull face as if it was nothing. "He—here it is your Majesty." Shido says as he hands the green diamond to the elder. "Pretty," the elder says, raising his hand to hold the diamond. "My child... The difficulty of this one pales in comparison to the difficulty of finding a sacrifice... You must first interact with my kind outside... I'll do the rest "says the wise man.

As they both exited the room, the elder exclaimed, "the prince stay... There's something important about this one." "I wonder what that is...", Bell says as he follows the elder's command to close the door and leave Jey inside.

It was nighttime as Victoria walked to the elf's location, and the sound of crickets could be heard as fireflies flew freely. Victoria's mind kept repeating, "I can't do that, I don't want to waste an elf's life..." and "then how will I return to my rightful time?!!" Those words kept repeating in her head, and she had no idea where she was going; she just went straight ahead from the big tree. "Hey!" yelled someone. But Victoria didn't hear it because she was overthinking, so she said it again, "hey!!!" Victoria's mind returned to reality as she raised her voice "Oh, eh—uh—ohh! Hi!" She waves as she realizes who is yelling at her. "Come along with me!!" As Victoria approached her.

"Hi human.. my name is Danny, but you can call me Deyn," she said, holding Victoria's hands and leading her to Deyn's location, leaving Victoria perplexed. Deyn led her into her house, which is carved into the trunk of a tree. "Come have a seat," she said as Victoria sat on the floor near the short table, and Deyn immediately went to make tea for them. She then brought this tea to her with a genuine smile.

"It's so unusual to see a human girl in our midst!! I'm overjoyed!! Hehehe "She expressed her desire to interact with Victoria. Victoria only gave her a forceful smile, as if she didn't know how to continue the conversation.

"So, what makes you come into our establishment, human girl? It appears that your mind is under stress... Oh, you must be looking for a soulmate as well?" She giggles, Victoria is made fun of by the elf.

"Ehhh?! N—no, I was just thinking about myself..." Victoria responded. After an awkward silence, Victoria began a topic with "ahmm why aren't elf using their magic at full strength back then when the giant monster attack?" "Ahh no.. they're doing their best, but you know.. our magic is only for living, it was never meant to kill someone until now," the elf chuckles, Victoria responds with an "ow..." and takes a sip of the tea they made after

"Hey do you want to see the sky tonight?!" The elf questioned her, Victoria drunk the tea and reply "if you say so"

Around 9:00 p.m. at night, they scale that grass-covered block mountain. A very fresh cold breeze blows over them as they reach the summit of the mountain. From the earth can see the beautiful Milky Way galaxy in the sky, but that's not the end of their stargazing. Below them, the elf performs wind magic.The wind blew and a firefly flew up, each emitting a different bright color of light, and a flower that was nearby, at night woke up, emitting a blue light and a bright nectar spread as the breeze passed by, Victoria's eyes sparkled, as she was amazed by everything. After watching the Milky Way, they both sit on the grass.

The elf started a topic. "They say the stars in the sky are the goddess of the sky's jewelry collection." Although I haven't seen her, she is still somewhere in this world. Sometimes you can't see any stars up there, it was because the goddess of sky picked them all, but the next night you can, because the goddess of sky is clumsy. That's what my parents told me, and I still wish I could see the Goddess of the Sky." Victoria smiles as she holds both of her hands out to the elf. "I admire someone who can hold on to what they want for a long time."

And Deyn gives her a small smile.

"Now that I told you about mine.. it's your turn to tell me what you want and also you didn't tell me your name that's unfair hmpk."

"Eh..sorry.. so ahm..a—all I want is the peacefulness of the world that's all and I'm Victoria teehee."

"Jeez atleast you tell me your name" Deyn disappointed.

"So—sorry but really! That's just what I want."

"You really do care other ay" Deyn replied standing up.

"Come on we need to go back..." They both came back into the elf place.

Deyn bid Victoria farewell for the time being "good night Vick! I'Il see you tomorrow!" Victoria returns the wave as she walks to the big tree.

Inside the big tree, Jey is already asleep on his own room and the elder still sitting on his throne.

"Find one already my child?"

"I haven't. 'm very sorry"

"That's fine... Etto brings me a good news, for now you should sleep, Etto will escort you to your room."

Etto makes contact with Victoria "Follow me," he instructed. Victoria only makes a puzzled expression as she follows Etto. "Hey... What's this about the good news you bring to the elder?" Victoria asked as they walked up the stairs. Oh, that. Someone I knew offered HIS life for the both of you, so there's no need to worry..." He walked into her room and opened the door "Here you go, girl, sleep well... And don't be concerned about that guy; you'll be fine... and don't be concerned about that guy; you'll know him tomorrow, okay?" He left Victoria in her room and returned to the elder. She sat in her soft bed for a moment, staring at the ceiling "Phine...", before falling asleep.
