Camry waited for the voice to continue speaking but it was silent for a while. She knitted her brows.
"Why ain't you speaking?" Camry questioned.
"Master, I smell the aura of that dangerous man, he is getting closer, I guess he is coming here already!" The voice was speaking.
"So what?" Camry uttered coldly.
"I—"
"I asked you a question. Who am I?" Camry interrupted the voice. She was certain the voice was trying to avoid the question that she asked.
"Master, I really cannot tell you now, it will affect you dangerously, part of your memories has been sealed!" the voice replied.
"What are you saying?" Camry's voice became colder. She thought the voice was only trying to lie to her, how could her memories be sealed?
"Master, I am not lying to you!" The voice could sense that Camry was doubting it.
It was understandable that Camry will not believe and accept its words immediately but the voice could not help but be sad that its master does not trust it.
Even as it was the guardian of Camry's soul, because its master's memories had been sealed, its abilities have also been limited.
After a moment of silence, the voice inhaled sadly, "master, there is nothing I will gain from lying to you! You have to believe me! As much as I also want to help you, I cannot! It is only until you become stronger and unseal your memories that you can return home and know your identity!"
Camry clenched her fist, her eyes were clouded with icicles, she disliked uncertainties the most. As much as she did not want to listen to this voice, she had to.
"Become stronger? Return home? Know my identity?" She muttered in a freezing voice.
"Yes, master... You have been away from home for many years..." The voice declared fearfully. The former arrogance that it showed before Camry was no longer there.
"You are just telling me this now, why? I seem easily fooled, no?" Camry spat with frostiness.
"That is not true master! I have always been here but you never acknowledged me! I can only be an illusion of your mind if you never really called me out. But, master, you called me out of that illusion today. It is the first step to unsealing your memories!" The voice pronounced.
Camry closed her eyes, she inhaled sharply, her fingers brushed the space between her brows. She tried to understand the information she was receiving.
"If I have been away from home for many years..." Camry started. Where is this place then? What is the meaning of this...
"Master, in this area, my memory is also limited!"
"Useless" Camry spat coldly, her frosty eyes flashed in anger.
"Master..." the voice grunted.
"What are you called?" Camry asked expressionlessly. If she were to really acknowledge the voice, knowing what it is called matters.
"Master!" the voice cried happily. Since its master was asking for its name, it only meant that she was accepting it.
"Everyone calls me Magnificent!" it said.
"What is that?" Camry voiced coldly with a frown.
"Mas-ter, my celestial spirit lineage calls me Magnificent..." it sounded small in the fear to annoy its master again.
"Blind!" Camry spat. She meant that everyone in the voice's lineage is blind. Camry had a very unmagnified first encounter with the voice so to her, the voice was unworthy of the name Magnificent.
"Master..." the voice came out soft and sounded pained. She was not lying to the master this time, her real name is truly 'Magnificent'.
She was called Magnificent because, amongst other celestial soul guardians, she was the prettiest and brighter than others. She was far more intelligent than others too.
If it weren't for the fact that her master's memories have been sealed, she would have materialized in front of the master and showed her master how 'magnificent' she was!
Hmmph! Her celestial sisters have always been jealous of her. She erased the bitter thoughts from her mind and planned to help her master become stronger so that the master would accept her as 'Magnificent'.
"Little, that is your name!" Camry voiced leaving no room for argument.
"Y-yes master! Little will only listen to master" in a small corner at the back of Camry's mind, a certain celestial spirit guardian who has been demoted from being Magnificent to Little curled up and bit her lips sadly, she felt her master was cold and unjust her but there was nothing she could do about it.
If it were to be before Camry acknowledged the superiority and servitude between them, Little had a life of her own, she would remain a lingering being of Camry's mind, nothing would hinder her existence but now that the bond has been established, Little is under Camry's authority and must obey ever order the master has.
"Good. Are there other things that I need to know?"
"There are many things that you need to know master but I also know little so I might not be of help for now" Little uttered in a small voice.
"Indeed, very useless!" Camry spoke coldly.
"I am not really useless..." Little muttered.
She was not really useless, however, the seal on her master's memories was hindering her abilities too. Even if she told her master that she was the stronger person on the island, would she also not believe...
Little became sad. Somehow, because they shared the same mind, Little's emotions flowed into Camry and she was able to feel the sadness in her mind. Camry furrowed her cold brows, dark lines formed on her forehead.
"Master... I—" Little started but her words remained stuck in her throat. She went silent immediately. Camry felt a shiver run down her spine, it was the emotions coming from Little.
Camry raised a brow and looked in the direction of the office door.
At the same time, the door flew open from the outside and an overbearing cold figure walked in. The man walked straight to her and stood before her.
"It's a good thing that you know your place and waited for me obediently" he sneered, he did not know that what made her remain in the position was because of her interaction with Little.
Their eyes met, icicles flew into the open space and encircled them. One glared in an overbearing manner while the other stood unyielding.
The urge to subdue and snap her fiery wings was all he could think about. She was angered by his fierce nature, his blunt temper made her always want to be mischievous!
Camry could feel Little's shivers, it ran down her own skin. Little was clearly afraid of the man, she had told her previously that the man was dark and dangerously. Camry could not help but want to run her eyes across his body, she was curious about him.
She withdrew her gaze from his eyes and shamelessly gave him a look over.
Camry was considered tall but besides this man she appeared shorter, he was a head taller than her making her a bit short. He had a well-built figure, quite muscular and very manly. Save for his coldness and arrogance, he was a man whose good-looking face was enough to rob women of their hearts.
His handsomeness truly made him dark and dangerous when it came to a woman's opinion. Camry snickered coldly at these thoughts and her eyes had not stopped running across his body.
"What are you looking at!" Mr. Hogan snapped coldly, he felt her eyes on his body in a shameless manner, it made him feel extremely uncomfortable. No woman had looked at him in that manner before!
She looked at him as though she wanted to swallow him whole. A man like Me. Hogan could not take it at all!
"You, I am looking at you," Camry said she shrugged and raised her head to meet his eyes.
Mr. Hogan's eyes were covered with a new level of frostiness, his glares shot shreds of icicles, it pierced through her skin but she remained unfazed.
"Good one, you are very brave!" he sneered coldly, only she would stare at him so openly and fearlessly admit it. She did not fear what he could do to her at all!
Her eyes lit up and shone a cold light, her espresso-colored orbs became clear and frigid. The corners of her lips curled up to form a smile but that smile lacked warmth, it send shivers down one's spine.
"You are quite handsome too... So dangerous... it makes one want to flee" Camry uttered coldly as she stared into her boss' eyes with cold eyes, her lips held a smile but it never reached her eyes. The temperature in the room dropped drastically, it was as though Antarctica had materialized into the office.
Mr. Hogan took a step forward, closed the gap between them, and his gaze ran deep into her eyes. All forms of warmth in the office dispersed!
"What. Did. You. Say?" He asked with gritted teeth. His stance was intimidating and if it were to be somebody else, their kneels would have been trembling and knocking into each other but this was no other person but Camry, she knew no fear before the boss.
Camry smirked coldly while maintaining eye contact with him, she raised her hand and pressed her palm against his chest, she opening her mouth smilingly.
"You—"
