Meanwhile, Haise wears the eyeglasses, imbued with wardening spells, given by the principal himself. Alorazel decided to took Haise somewhere around in the capital of Orfeo. "Where are we going?" Haise asked.
"Oh, just somewhere around." She said as her hands holding together and tilted her upper body a little with a bright smile of her face.
Seeing her smile like that, Haise's heart skip. It was a feeling that he almost forgotten. As he held his chest, confused, Alorazel approached then held him.
"Come on... Let's go." Alorazel enthusiastically said, pulling Haise.
"O-oh..." Haise felt a little awkward, but he, for some reason, doesn't dislike it.
Without the knowledge of the two, from afar a blonde haired guy, wears a red gothic suit that makes him looks like from a noble family, had a bitter look on his face as he watched Alorazel with Haise.
He clenches his peace in jealousy, seeing her acting so lovely and lively around Haise. "Who is that fucker with her?!"
...
"We're finally here."
In a cave filled with trees with fetal-like leaves, glowing plants around, and a lake at the center that reflects the surroundings at its best.
"Woah!"
As Haise got in that huge cave, his eyes were filled with nothing , but astonishment. There was also this glowing quart-like minerals around the corner of the cave.
Alorazel smile brightly and lovely as she saw Haise's astonishment in his eyes.
"This is the Cave of Vamirha, the bloody goddess." Alorazel said as she displayed a smile on her face.
Haise just quietly looked at her. His ears were solemnly listen to every word of Alorazel.
"According to the legends, this cave is where you could find her relictomb. However, none of any experts in terms in this matter have proven the existence of it yet. It is also said that only those whom received the light of knowledge could enter in her relictomb and received her blood..."
"And the blood would give you an access to use her powers in the form of the light of knowledge."
"You mean the nilucis, right?" Haise tongue slipped as he remembered what the Philomina said to him back in his dreamworld.
Alorazel's eyes widened as she heard what Haise just said. "Nilucis?"
"No, nothing." Haise shook his head in denial.
Alorazel became a little suspicious of Haise's existence. She was also worried for the teenage boy before him that was giving a mysterious vibes.
Curious about why Haise behaving so calm and collected? Well, Haise himself didn't know either. He just felt like behaving that way, it was probably because of his unique rationality.
Now that Alorazel mentioned about the 'light of knowledge,' Haise's curiosity stirred up. However, due to his plan, he must stay collected in order to settle his unfinished business.
As Haise seems to be in deep thought, Alorazel looked at him perplexedly. She walked forward where Haise could watch her.
Haise looked at Alorazel, who was tilting her upper body a little while looking at him with a simple smile on her face, it was like... that smile was asking: Is there something wrong?
Haise was just in silence.
"It seems there's something bothering you." Alorazel wondered.
"It's nothing." Haise answered in his neutral tone.
"Please, just for now; just this moment, I want you to just look at me." [Alorazel]
Haise got confused.
Alorazel pulled Haise at the side of the lake, therein she let go of his arm then walked onto the water.
Alorazel stood for a few seconds, then as she stamped her foot, a wave of golden light came out from her body and caressed the water.
The water began to move and dance around Alorazel.
As Alorazel was about to dance, she looked at Haise first with a lovely gaze. "Please watch me." The water was glowing gold and was under the influence of her magical power.
Alorazel began to dance... A glamorous rhythmic pace indeed. She closed her eyes as she dance, picturing herself beside Haise.
Haise was immersed in confusion, to why such a glamorous girl like her would do something like this. He's not that dense enough to be ignorant about her feelings, he knew this kind of act for even in the human in the past era did this to the man they love.
"Why?" Haise couldn't really understand. He barely know about Alorazel and yet, she show such affection towards him.
Haise had lost his trust towards everyone. Why? His mother left him for such a ridiculous reason, the girl who was extremely close to him cut all her ties to him. Thus, he didn't expect anymore from the people he deeply care.
Haise displayed a confused expression and worried look, Alorazel as she dance looked at him in that state.
As the water rhythmically serving Alorazel, she approached Haise and caressed his face.
"You don't have to worry about that anymore." She clearly know something. "I'm here now." Slowly, her eyes closed and glimpse over Haise, who felt awkward.
Haise felt Alorazel's lips. Did he pushed her away? No, he didn't. It was not because he likes it, it was because he didn't know what to do anymore. However, at that very moment, Haise felt warm inside of his heart... He closed his eyes as if he had finally welcomed her.
'He's mine, only mine...'
_
In the cave of Vamirha... a jet-black haired teenage boy, in his black pajama, stood alone near at the lake. It's just Haise. It seems he really came back for his curiosity.
"Well, well, if it's the filthy boy who tried to steal my woman."
A tall blonde haired guy with smug look on his face arrived.
Haise turned around to the blonde haired guy. He expected that he was in trouble again!
"..." Haise let a deep sigh as if he was saying: 'Give me a break."
The blonde haired guy looks like he came from a noble family and has a bitter look on his face. He clearly didn't like Haise. "You, lowly worm, stay away from my woman." He said pointing at Haise.
Haise just looked at him, as if he was already wondering if how he would be able to escape this trouble. He knew the blonde haired guy was incredibly strong and didn't even know if could escape this.
"Stay away from my woman." The blonde haired guy repeated, as his eyes glow.
"Who are you?" Haise asked.
"Oh..." The blonde haired guy displayed a gentle smile, yet a trace pride could be seen. "My apologies."
"I am Kieran Klaudisous, the second son of the Klaudisous clan, and fiance of Alorazel vi Vladamirovich." The blonde guy, with his head lowered and hand showing five fingers, introduced himself.
Haise held his chin with his right hand and held his elbow with left hand. 'This is indeed trouble.' He glanced at the blonde guy.
"Now that you know, please, stay away from her." The blonde haired man said.
"And what if I don't?" Haise really stirred up the fire!
"Then you'll have to die here." The blonde haired guy said with smile on his face.
Several vampires appeared from the shadows in their black hoodie cloak. Their eyes were glowing red.
Haise's eyes began to glow as these vampires arrived. He also instinctively cast barrier around him which surprised the vampires in black hoodie cloak.
"Oh!?" Kieran was also surprised, seeing Haise could use magic. "All of you, kill him!" He ordered pointing at Haise.
The vampires, in their black hoodie cloak, dashed around Haise and prepared their spells.
Haise apprehensively sharpened all his senses. Though his special vision could caught up on their speed, his body was not the great to follow their pace.
Kieran had a broad smile on his face, as he watched Haise being attacked with pyro blast.
Haise was sweating on the hot temperature of pyro spells. 'Dammit!' All he could see was the mana and red glow of their body. His usual vision were obstructed by the flames of their spells.
*CRACK
Haise's barrier begun to crack. 'Dammit there's a lot of them.' He didn't know what to do, and all he could wonder was how to survive this.
*CRACK-CRACK
As Haise's barrier cracked further, a vampire in the black hoodie cloak with beefy body and war hammer in his hands walked towards him.
Haise glared at the beefy vampire who had a broad smile on his face.
As everyone still firing at Haise, the beefy vampire draws his hammer and crushed Haise's barrier.
Haise, who was expecting this to happen, evaded his hammer. However... "Ugh!" He was hit by their flames.
"HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!" Kieran had laughed like a mad man at the sight of Haise's struggling.
Haise's skin was fine due to the shell provided by his nilucis on his body. However, he could still felt that heat from their flames.
The beefy vampire draws his war hammer again and hit Haise.
"Ugh!"
Haise cast barrier again to block the beefy vampire's attack. He was sent fly and stumbled on the ground. He coughed and vomited blood as he felt its impact, his vision became a little blurry.
When the other vampires dashed towards Haise, a glass-like resembling an angelic wing appeared from the right side of Haise's back.
Everyone snapped and was stunned, seeing Haise's wing.
Kieran had a bitter look on his face, he clearly doesn't want to let Haise escape.
Haise wearily stood up, he held his broken right arm and glared everyone.
"Kill him now!" Kieran shouted. "Don't let him escape!"
The vampires in the black cloak became more aggressive and attacked Haise.
Haise cast barrier around him again, and when he flew at such speed, Kieran, with bat-like wings on his back, obstructed his way. "Where do you think you're going?" With his blazing vampiric arm, he punch Haise.
*BAAAAAM!!
Haise crashed on the ground near at the lake. "Ugh!" He coughed blood and his barrier were utterly shattered.
The vampires, in their black hoodie cloak, dashed towards Haise and attacked him.
Haise desperately fight back with a bari katana in his left hand. He even cast barrier around him, but he was already too weak and weary, thus the beefy vampire could easily break his barrier.
'Fuck' Haise was really desperate and apprehensive. He glared at Kieran who had a broad smile on his face. 'At least him! Just him!' Rage begun to stirred up in his heart. He ignored his state and evaded all the attacks from the vampires in the black hoodie cloak.
Haise created a small bari thorn, he focused it on his left hand and made it spin at such a crazy speed.
The beefy vampire obstructed Haise's way and drew his hammer against Haise.
"Out of my way!!!"
Haise evaded the beefy vampire's attack. With his spinning bari thorn, he aim the beefy vampire's chest.
*SPLAAAASSSH
The beefy vampire widened his eyes, he turned his eyes on the left side of his ruined chest as Haise passed him.
Kieran's face became more bitter. He glared at Haise, who just killed his strongest subject therein.
Haise leaped and flew towards Kieran with his spinning bari thorn on his left hand. "Fuck you!"
Kieran just stood and glared at him.
