Chapter 9 - Chapter 2 ❇️ Light Lifter

As soon as Arius arrived back, Omisha almost passed out. At the blue eyeballs in a glass mason jar.

" Ok, ew. why only blue?" I ask.

" They taste better. Rarest I've ever had is orange. Now, orange eyes, mmm. They're even better than blue." Arius answers.

" Right..." I say.

He pulls a fork from his pocket and pokes one. Omisha turns around and grabs. Ethan puts a hand on her head and asked Arius,

" Could you teleport to other people and bring them back to here?"

Arius finished chewing and answers with,

" Depends. Shadow magic takes a lot of energy. How many people?"

" 4"

" Names?"

" Achlys Romano, Armani Edwards, Casey Williams, and Mara Smith."

Arius looks at us at Mara's name.

" She's... from Dark Death Nation, she's on a... shift... Right now. The others, I could get."

( I almost forgot Mara was from Darknara. A ' shift' must be an Assassination run. I would die if I had to do that job.)

" Would you know?" Arius asked me.

" W-what?" I say back.

" You just said that you'd die if you had to Darknarian jobs, I hope you know that the people of Darknara are dead. It's offensive to wish you were dead when my people would kill to have a life. to feel." Arius states.

( Did he just... read my mind?)

" I see your wondering about why I knew this.. It was written all over your face." Arius laughs.

I blink and go back over by Omisha, who's nose was in a book.

" Hey, Exi! I just found something about your great great grandpa Pyro Emp... hang on let me try and think about how to say it... Emprismos. He was the one who thought of dividing everyone place into their own. He had 4 younger brothers, and 3 older sisters. Pyro's younger brother, Python, got all jealous and Assassinated him. The 2 Homage Assassins knew Pyro wasn't to be killed, and killed Python as a trademark of Pyro's death. They knew Python was to be dead. And he was to be dead on 13-4-5327 at 2:16pm." Omisha said to me.
