'SPLASH!'
I immediately turned to where Leon was, when suddenly a bright red light flashed from the magic book Leon was holding.
I could see a slow movement that occurred, as the bright red flash of light burst out when Leon opened the Grimoire I gave him earlier.
I quickly got up from my seat and headed towards where Leon was, I held his trembling body on the floor when he fell during the flash of light.
"Leon Are you all right?" I asked him worriedly, at the same time panicking because this is the first time I'd seen such a rare occurrence.
But all my questions were not answered by him, I immediately carried his body and took him to my room. I don't know what to do, because this is the first thing that happens in my house when I bring guests.
I put Leon's limp body on my bed, "Leon! Wake up!" I said softly as I gently patted Leon's cheek, hoping to wake him up.
Because after the flash of red light earlier, Leon didn't say a word at all, and when I tried to check his temperature, I was surprised because his whole body was so cold.
"Leon Your body is so cold!" I said panicking.
"Dad, Dad!" I screamed as loud as I could to call my father because right now I didn't know what to do with Leon's deteriorating condition.
Several times I called Dad for help, but it felt like Dad wasn't at home. And I just remembered that my father was out of the house. Damn it!
I reached into the cell phone that was in my pants pocket, and immediately I called my father.
[Call connected]
[Hello, what's up David? I'm ordering food for dinner tonight!]
"Dad go home now! something has happened to Leon, I can't explain it, what is clear is that you must go home soon!" I said so panicked and immediately hung up the phone.
I put my cell phone on the table near my bed, then I focused back on Leon who was limp and didn't move at all. What should I do, did something bad happen to him?
Shortly after I called my father, I heard from the porch that Dad's car had been, and I heard the sound of fast footsteps running towards my room.
"Dad!"
"What happened?" My father asked frantically as he drew closer to where Leon was.
"The two of us were in the library, and I accidentally gave him a Grimoire book to read, but I was surprised when Leon opened the Grimoire. Suddenly a flash of red light burst out from the book. And Leon immediately lost consciousness!" I say trying to explain to dad.
My father was silent While trying to check on Leon's condition, he shook his head looking at me with such a pitiful look.
"How's dad? What should we do?" I asked my father frantically when he finished checking on Leon.
"I didn't think that Leon was not a mortal in general, because apparently, he has something precious inside of him. I don't know for sure what is inside him, which makes magic like thirst to be absorbed by Leon's body." My father said explaining as he approached me.
"Huh? What does that mean?" I asked confused.
"Quickly grab the Grimoire that Leon held earlier!" Said Dad and asked me to take the book.
Immediately I ran towards the library to pick up the book that was previously opened by Leon.
After arriving at the library my eyes looked around to find the whereabouts of the book, I remember very well that Leon threw the red book into the corner of the shelf.
"Where's the book?" I muttered While crouching down trying to find out where the book was.
When I was looking for the book, my eyes suddenly stopped when I saw a red light coming out of the cover of the book in the corner of the shelf.
"There he is!" I said excitedly when I found the book.
"Is it okay if I hold it?"
But not long after I mumbled those words, suddenly the red light that was on the cover of the book went out instantly. And that very second the book was immediately closed again so tightly.
I had widened my eyes and took a few steps back when I saw the book move by itself, but because this situation was so urgent, without further ado I immediately took the book and took it to my room.
"Dad here's the book!" I said to dad while giving him a red-bound Grimoire.
When I gave Grimoire to dad, suddenly Dad's eyes went wide. "How did you get this book?" My father asked confused while looking carefully at the book he was holding at this time.
"The book is on the shelf. As usual, I just got the book for Leon to read." I replied confused while scratching the back of my head when Dad said so.
"No way, this book couldn't have appeared suddenly if there wasn't something that might have happened. You know this is a book that has been missing for 20 years. And suddenly reappeared when you took Leon to the library. This must have something to do with this man!" My father said while looking in the direction where Leon was.
Of course that made me pause for a moment because what dad just said seemed like something impossible would happen.
I didn't retort at all or ask when Dad said that, but after that Dad suddenly came closer to where Leon was and placed the Grimoire on Leon's forehead.
"Father, what are you doing?" I asked panicked when dad suddenly placed the magic book on Leon's forehead.
"Ssusshhttt, don't disturb me first!" My father said while gesturing that I should not interfere with whatever my father is currently doing.
That's when I stepped back away from the two of them. And not long after, suddenly a red light appeared so bright from Leon's forehead and the book.
The bright red light suddenly seemed to envelop Leon's entire body, and as if a red light was emitting from between Leon's forehead and the book, the light was entwined like a shawl that was currently enveloping Leon's body.
"What happened?" I asked my father in a flat tone.
My father slowly stepped backward and approached me.
"We have found the person, He is the soul mate you have been looking for, I can smell the sweet fragrance of his body that suits you so well. You must guard him with all your heart because no one but Him can undo your curse!" Said my father while looking at me with such a deep gaze.
