5 MONTHS LATER,
With great determination, Lailita promises herself that today is the last day she will fight hard against everything.
If she lost her soul today,she will let her body to be infused by Noirs, along with the risk she can't go back to her true self anymore.
This was her promise to Angelo, But nevermind promises are meant to be broken,
Why should she compromise with a devil? she will make sure she pass the game be free, go back to the village?
Noirs were sometimes gentle with her, even served her as best they could, there were some other times they suddenly lose their mind where they became as quiet as a statue before mumbling piles of none understanable phrases, they will did dirty to the poor girl.
Lailita also learned, that deal is actually a bluff. She learned that, the sources of Noirs power were derived from hatred and darkness, it all make sense why did they torture her when she did nothing wrong. They wanted a body that can talk and act normally. Added with a simple face. To go where?
"I don't wanna twirl into a darkness, I don't want to die, my soul aren't going anywhere, you won't fed on it! Treat me nicely yes, It's nice.. but all of you are going to sucked my blood until the last drip"
Why did we make a promise? they are based on lies, it is a fraud if the promiser isn't going to keep it. They didn't granted any of her wishes,
"your lifes are all lies, your parents lied to you, your sister planning to kill you, the villagers hated you- Just die, we need your magis, please?"
Angelo glide swiftly from the top of trees to another trees as Lailita entered a rather dark area. Reluctant to let her go, Angelo sat behind Lailita.
He poked Lailita's calves and thighs. Lailita writhed and managed to kick the creature's ribs. Angelo hissed, he then laughed wickedly as the kick wasn't did any damage to his.
"will I look like this if I die?" She unleashed her magis 4 months ago. Now she can uses her father's magic. But her fire is still weak so she can only wreck the upper part of their skin.
"Run?... run? ...runnnn, you musn't go" few hand emerged from the and hugged her limbs.
"No !!" she screamed hysterically. Dumbfounded, the sound of a ruby bell distracted her. She moved the wrist so that the bell rings again.
"Please ..." said Laila. Surrender because she is not sure what she sees is an illusion or real, she trembled in anticipation of that enchanting toothed charming prince.
"Arrkkkk !!" time interval of 4 seconds, all the fluids of the three three noir splattered like a bomb. Her ears became deaf due to the sound of a scream that she had never heard, it was similar to the sound of a falcon but the sound was more subtle yet so high pitching that it suffocates the soul of anyone who hears it.
Maybe it stems from the wind, from the flutter of the man's wings, but she was confused again when she saw that it was the mouth that made the sound. The rumble of the hurricane rise after a second scream, producing a thunder. What terrifies her, the thunderstorm is stronger than her sister. Lailita was shocked, her hair tangled all over her feets.
Her tongue was numb and her lips trembled at the sight of the corpse of the noirs slowly bowing towards her with slimy blood splattered on her face.
Lailita grumbled. The second time, Jones's flutter, it stopped Angelo's from getting nearer when Angelo tried to dragged her into
the forest.
The day still way long to go to greet the night, yet the forest was blackened when the clouds were compiling in the sky.
She thought the boy made a mistake, the demons frantically ran at a high speed towards her. Lailita covered her eyes and clashes to the ground. The demons passes through her.
She had no idea why did the demons were trembling as they saw him that they collided with each stepping on their own mucus as they running away.
"argghhh!" the boy searched for her as he heard she screamed, the crawl demons who hid under the ground grabbing her legs, burying her together.
Multiple lightning strike continuosly, targeting the demons to where ever they're hiding.
Fire was lit from a broken trees as they strucked by those lightning.
The condition of the tree that was about to fall really surprised her. As she had seen the same situation before, her heart ached at the feeling of unknown melancholy engulfing her soul.
The reflection of fire was reflected in her eyes which were already wet. "ARGHH!"
Lailita patted her shoulders and chest repeatedly as if she was on fire. The hysterical shout is a giving a feeling of frightening throbbing as well as sadness.
That way he got distracted and managed to save Lailita from a fallen tree.
He formed an air force to lift her body, he lifted her hurriedly, so lailita stomped on to his chest as he reached out his hand to catch her.
He didn't think the situation would make lailita horrified, the girl grabbed Jones' back until her nails bleeds him.
Slimy black blood could be seen dripping from her forehead. The toxic mucus which previously misfigured her did nothing to her body. Is the body ready to be inhabitat by Noir? or Noirs(many)
She was still in schocked that her mouth and eyes were wide open.
OUTSIDE THE VALLEY,
This is the first time her eyes to have interacted with the outside light making her temporarily blind.
She groaned and wanted to get up. But the pain on her stomach causing her to lay down again. She fainted again and only to wake up when her chest felt like it pressed by something made it difficult for her to breathe.
"Mmh .." where is it? Why is it so hot?" mumbled.
Just as she said that, a cold touch numb her to stone. She wanted to see, but the sunlight hurt her eyes, Lailita was stunned. The touch spreaded up to her calves and she shivered.
The watery- coldness sensation moved to her neck as well. She recalled the day she met those noirs in the well.
When a hand reached to the part of her neck, she dared to resist the touch.
She hold the wrist that touches her, the skin was not hard or moist, doesn't have a bushy hair. She pressed that arm, her skin wasn't burnt. She was sure it wasn't Angelo or any other demons.
Difficulties staring at whoever that was, Lailita sees a tall and girnomous body that smells like a sunshine. Her hair got tangled into his anklet as he moves. Due to awkward moment, she didn't say anything. Jones changes his direction, he peep onto her face when he saw she moved her toes. The sun got into her eyes that she failed to identify his face.
"Awake?" Somehow, she was relieved to hear the voice of a winged boy or a man? she wouldn't dare to ask for his age. However the brief meeting between them before although he left thinking she was dead was meaningful for Lailita. If it hadn't for the coincidence, she would have be dead by now.
she was desperate for help that she make sure to remember his voice. People will think she is lying if she say he had a soft voice when he scream cam perfom a calamity. Jones moved over to Lailita's head and lifted the girl from her armpit. Telling her to sit properly.
A tiny bell from his anklet rang whenever he changes into a different position. she had no idea whether the boy walked on land or float in the air. Lailita searched for the bracelet on her wrist.
"Looking for what?" he flicked lailita's front hair to the side and wiped the dried blood under her eyes.
"Maybe because you've been in the dark for a long time, I don't think you can see very well right now" Jones took a scarf over his shoulder and tied it around Lailita's eyes.
Upon examination, it turned out that Lailita did not get any serious injuries, everything she felt all those months were just hallucinations. The pain she got from her stomach resulted from his punch, because she was panicking.
Jones grinned, but his involvement in the human city was undeniable, he was even surprised when he saw Lailita talking to a florist. They were next to each other.Her fragrance was different so he immediately know it wasn't her. But damn, she got out!
Will she remember who I am? oh I forgot I had a different face.
"The anklet is broken, don't waste your time looking for it" A slight wind hit her face whenever Jones went to another position.
"my advice for you, put the anklet on your feet, not on your hand. " He voice was soothing to hear, maybe it was because after a long time she hear a normal voice speaking a language she familiar with.
"What are you doing?" Jones avoided to be touch by her when Lailita suddenly patting his hand.
'what am I doing?' Jones dip the towel into the river.
'seriously what am I doing right now? Why am I cleaning her up?' He was disgusted that he had touched her. He wiped his hand on the grass.
Without squezzing the water, he placed the towel in her palm. Lailita wasn't ready for it and surprised so she dropped the towel accidentally
I never thought her reincarnation will be this stupid? was she like this? I should have paid attention to father when he's talking to me.
Why would I bother if she hurt herself or she loses her hair by the mucus? I can't believe myself.
"This is a towel, put in water and" Jones jones pinched the towel with his index and middle fingers. Dropped on Lailita's hand.
He wiped the dirt on her hand in circular motion while explaining to her the function of the wet item. Yet the girl wasn't paying attention. Did she fall asleep? To find out, he hit her head.
Seemed like Lailita was confused to where he was, that's why she face an opposite direction.
"forget it, just take a quick shower"
Jones squatted down remembering the way his people bathed once in a while in the river. And then go home naked and still wet, a nice definition towards a bird that learned civilization. She's evil but thanks to her and his father's interaction 200 years ago, he gratitude her for his knowledge.
Was once a kind and childish fairy becoming more wiser each day due to her curse that his people called as 'cursed tongue'. Neither of the encounter and the intelligence she gave did a happy ending, all were suck!
I should thank her by the way for giving the look to my father. -Arsh is the most handsome fairy in Qamar land (Fairy land) until to this day. Among Jones siblings he concluded he's the most pretty one.
"Oii! what are you doing?" He was just day dreaming thinking how handsome he was and how will the girl react if she sees his angelic face.
As he swinged his body to tell something to her, the girl was half-naked ready to dip into the river.
He went to Lailita and kicked her on her hips.
Lailita lying on the edge pressing the pain from her backbone. Jones's face flushed red as he accidentally saw lailita's chest. He took off waistband, threw it to her.
"Oii! you wanna die? don't you know how deep this river? It's even deeper compare to the lake you've drowned!"
Is she stupid or something? He only stand still with his hand resting in his hips refused to help her getting up. Though it was his fault she's that Lailita dirtied herself.
"I'm sorry" Jones sighed. He grabbed her hand and pulled her out from the mud. He then flew her to a shallow water.
"thank you" he nodded and washes his hands afterwards. He saw his pants got dirty as he was checking his appearances.
Quickly he turned his head to left again and screamed. "cut it out will you! what are you doing?!" he saw her reflection to where she began to strip next to him effortlessly.
"cleaning myself up" she answered like a kid.
Jones walked to Lailita, swinged her so that he will see only her back. He wrapped the band on her shoulder.
"I mean, why did you doing it infront of me?"
His hand won't stop shaking thinking he's going to see a naked girl. Well he did saw, but he's not enjoying it. Not from her obviously.
Feeling weird, She asked again "why?"
what so wrong about it? didn't everyone had a same body? legs, feets, hands? and hip?
Jones scracth his hand a, he was mad and wondering how to tell the clueless girl infront of him.
If she's in the capital, she will considered a stripper or probably a prostitude. The witch might get sold into a brothel without conscience. Will I be the one who's going to protect her honour? Hell no!
"If you wanna do it, make sure when I'm not around" He distancing himself.
"why?" Lailita came to him again, waistband got slide off and he catches a glimpse of her collar bone.
Somehow he thinks of other races, had a distinct body compared to them, and he doesn't like it. They looked weird he said.
It only took a couple of time he will transform back to his usual self when he's home from visiting human capital.
Jones smacked her forehead so hard, that her skull made a loud bang.
"Aii!" She kneeled. She shield her head from the ground when she saw Jones stepped foward, she don't want to get hit another time.
"stupid girl! no wonder you die early!" Jones clenced his fist. The girl really does something to him although he knew Lailita wouldn't be able to get his attention.
He's just don't want to lose control as how he did during a party he had with his noble friends. He got so wasted that he did some michief with three girls, or was it more that he forgot about it.
Later on that day, girls he never met would approach him when he's disguising and meddling his work in the human realm,
Insisting for a sex. Someome even paid in advance to be with him, His friend was the one whose accepting all the money. Handed them over along with a flirty notes. Cedric continuosly making fun of him that entire year.
The marquess son paid a lady the same lady to conftont him just to see how he reacted if the lady tell him that Jones had impregnate her.
He even rumored to an excellent body that will make not only girls will drolled for him, he's even big down there. They suggested it that way. Cedric making a big fuss gossiping with girls how hot he was every time they went out for business.
She's uglier than most girls I see, Latina even prettier than her, it should be fine, Jones clear his throat.
"the more I look at her, she still act like a child though she might be four years younger than me, hmm," He felt sleepy and yawned. He then left to let her bathe while he take a rest on top on the trees above the hut, or was it to exterminate his last vision.
He peep downwards, Lailita was tougher than she looks like, still dare to sing the same song the night she got attack? Jones turned his body facing the sun. He ring his anklet recalling his crime. Is this the right thing to do? He felt guilty.
"If only you never born, we can be friends" He let go of the guilt by recalling the days his father told him of the first massacre of his tribe. It is true he was not even born that time, but the story he focuses to when he was young, developed an anger towards a woman his family tried to serve. He didn't understand why did she Mirage bring her into Qamar. Was it a destiny?
I'm not the one she resurrect, she's not my master, Why would I bow to a fallen fairy they sinned more than my family,
"we're a copycat? Huh?" he smirked.
"How dare they loathe us when it was given by forced?" Once they were hated for carrying an immortality and never aged,
Now every, species in Qamar had a serious jealousy of their new magis ability when they had a changes within their eyeballs, when they carefully turned as red as a blood, they were called a scarlet heart whose eyes drenched by blood that curses his owner,
The curse will take away his tribe ability in healing,
The same colour of the crystal core of the red witch, therefore they were called sinner for getting any power they wished at a certain moment.
"foolish, I will make sure you will kneeled under my father's reign until you die" he yawned again and sleep.
