"It seems like I was wrong all along, if I was not going crazy then what is inside of me". Larry thought for some second. He breathed with ease when he realizes that he was not going crazy
" Hey, little lad what are you waiting for? You already know what to do, I promise no harm will come your way," the ancient voice said pleading like it desperately wants to come out to see what was happening outside
"You want me to permit you for you to come out, you lie, I don't even know what you are in the first place and what you are capable of doing, so why will I let you out? Larry asked the voice he felt like he was standing on a tightrope and don't know what to do, should he let the voice out or not allow it to come out
"You know what to do, just do it already. What are you hesitating for? You don't want me out," the ancient voice said, pleading it was like at this point its freedom depends on Larry if he agrees then it will be free and if he did not then it will be stuck there for a long time.
"You want me to let you out, then if you attack me what am I supposed to do, I don't even know the reason why you are trapped inside of me". When Larry got to this part of his speech he was shocked by what he had just discovered. He was like if the voice that was speaking to him was indeed trapped inside of him, then who was the person that trapped the voice inside him, how, when, and how did it happen and he was unaware of it? He felt terrified just thinking of how powerful that mage had to be to do such a thing, he felt like if the mage wanted to kill him it was a matter of raising a finger then he would be dead countless times. He was afraid till he started shaking but he was able to hide it just as soon as it came up
"If what is trapped inside me is stronger than me and could kill me without spending too much effort then what will be my end if it decides to attack me" Larry was confused about what to do if he did not let the owner of the ancient voice out off his body then it will continue to disturb him and he did not know how powerful what was inside was, If it could kill him easily, he was frustrated on how to act concerning the matter at hand.
"Little lad please just do it, I promise I won't do you any harm trust me". The ancient voice said to Larry in an honest and pleading tone.
It wants to come out from inside Larry's body by all means since it had already made Larry notice its presence the owner of the ancient didn't want to stay hidden anymore.
When Larry heard the sincerity of the voice and how it was begging him to help it out. He decided to place his bet on the word of the ancient voice; he felt that there was no other way to solve the problem than to let the owner of the ancient voice out of his body. If he did not then he would run mad from the constant noise made by the ancient voice, which he cannot ignore so the only option was to let it out.
"Okay, okay I will. But don't go back on your promise," Larry said to the ancient voice and was in thought at the same time "if it did go back on his word and attack me then. What am I going to do and how am I going to survive? But since some powerful Mage decided to place the owner of the ancient voice inside me without causing me any harm or killing me. Because if that Mage wanted to kill me then I will be dead a million times, so since I'm still alive that means maybe the owner of the ancient voice will not be able to harm me in a way that will lead to my death.
Larry was analyzing everything he was trying to make sure he was on the safer side and not hurt himself in the end. He knew that he had many things to do and was unwilling to give up this life for nothing meaningful, he would rather let the voice stay inside him than let it out to kill him but since he had already made up his mind and with his speculation so far he did not hold back anymore.
"I will allow you to come out so keep to your word understand" Larry had to remind the owner of the ancient voice again.
"I promise no harm will come your way" the ancient voice replied quickly
"You can come out now," Larry said, fully on guard, prepared to run away from his apartment if anything should go wrong, and think of how to solve the problem once he saves his life.
After Larry permitted the owner of the ancient voice, he waited for close to five minutes but nothing happened. There was no sound coming from the voice anymore; it was like the voice disappeared out of existence all of a sudden.
"It seems I was just thinking too much and there was no such thing as the voice talking in my head. I was the one that was deceiving myself, all along. It's shameful that my imagination is getting wild. I hope nothing like this will happen again.
When Larry saw that nothing happened he was not disappointed about it; it was like he was expecting it and that nothing will happen. His joy was that the annoying voice that was tormenting him finally shut up and he was hoping that the voice would forever remain silent and no longer disturb him.
