Chereads / PSUIT II / Chapter 36 - You still have time.

Chapter 36 - You still have time.

"You know what and who this Enverous is, and even after knowing that you could die there, do you really want to come along with me?" asked Avon while looking towards Ryu. She didn't say anything. She just kept quiet and carried on. After not getting a reply for some time, Avon told her again, "You still have time. Go back and don't risk your life. You can even hide somewhere at least till the time I come back." But Ryu didn't even look back at him, as she remained silent and kept on moving ahead. Now Avon was really getting angry at her for blatantly ignoring him. He hurried his horse and placed his horse in front of Ryu's, "Didn't you listen to what I was saying? Do you want me to explain it to you in a different language?" said Avon, venting out his frustration. Ryu looked at him keenly for a few seconds before changing the course of her horse and continuing with her journey. "Is she mad or what? I'm just not able to understand what's happening here, I need some time to assess and understand this situation at hand, but no one is leaving me alone as well," Avon complained to himself.

He was really getting agitated as he hurried his horse and again halted it in front of Ryu. "Hey! Don't you understand anything, are you deaf or what?" He said, quite angrily. But it felt like Ryu had sworn to herself not to utter a single word. Avon finally got down from his horse and walked up to her, "Honestly Ryu, you are of no use to me. So, you either go back or I am disappearing from here." Since her face was covered with a piece of black cloth, Avon could hardly see her face or even gauge her expression. She remained seated atop her horse, keeping mum not saying a single word. When even after a long time Avon didn't get any reply from her, he said, "Fine, do whatever you want," once said, Avon started opening up a portal to his timeline. But strangely, he remained there. Every time he tried to teleport himself back to his timeline, he would wound up in front of Ryu each time.

"How is it possible? Has Soya really tied me down to this timeline? How can her abilities be more powerful than mine? And if she is so much more powerful, why does she need me?" Avon was thinking to himself in astonishment. While Ryu kept moving ahead from the other side. Things were getting out of control, at least for him, as Avon was slowly losing his mind. "This can't be possible, I am the PSUIT and no one can compete with me. I am immortal, then why is all of this happening to me?" Avon was thinking to himself as he watched Ryu moving ahead of him.
