Chereads / The Son Of The Demon King / Chapter 55 - CHAPTER 54 : THE GRACE, WHY HIM?

Chapter 55 - CHAPTER 54 : THE GRACE, WHY HIM?

Sir Zolritch went to meet Sakura immediately as he left his office. They just stayed there for about two hours and finally Chandler showed signs of waking up.

First his fingers moved and then he clenched his fist. He slowly opened his eyes but closed it back instantly. The light in the healing capsule was just too much for eyes which were closed for about two hours. But after some moment, he opened it. His vision was first blur but after some seconds, it accommodated.

Sakura and Sir Zolritch were both laying their heads on a table they were sitting by. They couldn't see that Chandler just woke up. There were currently sleeping.

Chandler looked all around him amd saw he was in a rather strange room. He has ever stepped a leg here but couldn't just remember at that moment. The place was entirely white and the floor too. He could see his parents laying there at the other side of the glass wall.

"Mum, dad where am I" Asked Chandler as he stared his parents.

Immediately as the sound of his voice travelled to Sakura's ears, she woke up at the exact moment. Seems that she was just lying her head on the table and not sleeping at all. Same was said for Sir Zolritch who also woke up at the same time she did.

"Here is the underground infirmary Chandler. Can't you recall about it?" Responded Sir Zolritch.

He immediately pressed a button on the keyboard and immediately, the Healing Capsule returned to it's previous horizontal state. Then the glass opened. Chandler didn't waste time and stood out of the Capsule. He immediately left that place but he seems to have headache, as he walked as if he could fall at any moment.

Sakura lent him her shoulder and took him to a close chair. He just immediately sat, while Sir Zolritch just looked at him with his still confused face. He earlier saw something that he didn't fathom. He was uncertain but he would better try something than to not do it and regret later. Hence the saying, prevention is better than cure.

Sakura and Sir Zolritch met eye contact and they both nodded. Seems they had and agreement.

"Chandler, I know it's personal but what really happened by the time you were in your room? We saw dark ash shadows enter you by the time we came to your room.? Asked Sir Zolritch with a concerned look on his face.

Hearing that, Chandler recalled what happened instantly and just decided to tell them. He didn't mind to tell than and why he would rather hide it from them.

"I just opened a box which mum gave me, saying it was in my basket. I saw many other things in it and another box in it. It was rather strange. But there was a hole on the box and without notice, I cut my thumb and a drop of my blood entered the hole and so it opened. It was then that I saw a kind of dark crimson liquid in a flacon."

"There was a word from my mum which said that in the flacon was a present from my dad for my 16th anniversary. It also said that I have to drink it, and so I did"

Chandler explained to his parents which were both looking at him with concerne.

"What!!?? Why drink that Chandler, it could have been some kind of..of poison" Said Sakura with a frown on her face.

"Chandler how can you be so naive, what if this was a poison like your mum said" Said Sir Zolritch with a frown on his face.

"It's not about naivety dad, I just trust my mum even though I haven't seen her till yet. But all I know is that she can't do something to hurt me, I don't know but I have that feeling, but just can't explain it"

"Oh I see Chandler, I understand you but you should be doing this when you will be out there. We claim that the Demons are our enemies but enemity starts between us humans first. If you trust someone just like that, you will end up being dubed, ok?"

"Ok mum I heard that."

It's true what she said. Enemity starts first among the humans. They will be able to do all just for some desires, one which are not even worth doing some insane things. They could even easily team with the Demons if they were given some futile desires. That's just how humanity is.

Sir Zolritch was contemplating on what Chandler explained. He couldn't stop himself from thinking that it was a bad thing. He has never heard of anything like this and it was normal for him to thing it was evil, just the color itself said everything.

"So that's all that happened, Chandler?"

"Yeah dad, also, I felt really weird after I drank it. It started with my body becoming so hot and me sweating buckets. Then after, it was like, no it wasn't like, I literally felt all my bones broke and reconstructs themselves instantly. It was so painful I can assure you that and I don't ever want to experience such pain."

"It stopped after some time and then I felt a burst of power flow through me. This was really awesome. I felt like I could do all that I wanted. It was so intense that I was losing my mind to it. Dark ash aura was emanating from me and increase every second that passed. It was also then that I felt like a burn on my chest and so I started shouting, before I collapsed from the pain"

Chandler explained all he could remember to his dad who listened to him in all the process. He was processing all that Chandler said to the slightest bit. Not one word from his mouth could be negligible. The fact that it wasn't known about was also a threat.

"We haven't heard about any such thing before Chandler. I think that's a kind of ability you awakened from the liquid you drank. But you should never show anything about it out there, this would bring you a lot of trouble and lots of havoc shall follow. Just stay on low profile and don't use it."

"I heard you dad but how would I do if I have to use it to save lives? What if I and my companions are all in a dead trap and am the only one who could help by them, how would I do? Don't ask me to just let us die."

"I would help you with that later Chandler. I think there's a way for me to help you with the Zolritch ability. It would help you in future. Also, it will help me clear some issues am currently doubting."

Sakura just listened to them without talking. One could say that she has nothing to say but there were a lot of questions wandering in her mind right now.

What is it that he is talking about? What is this unheard ability which he awakened? Is it evil or what? Those are some of the questions she aked herself and it was normal.

They let Chandler rest in his room for some hours and at exactly 30mins to midnight, he woke up.

They were currently in a king if dim lighted room. Sir Zolritch and Chandler were both in a kind of circle with some inscriptions and drawing in it here and there. They were ancient drawing and inscriptions which he couldn't read, only Sir Zolritch was able. But it looked like a Ying-Yang circle, like those seen in Japan.

A blue aura was seen enveloping Sir Zolritch and was become more and more thicker as seconds passed. Chandler was so amazed at this sight. Like a child who was in his favorite grocery shop with all his favorite groceries. He then started some incantations.

"Sola misafaord rim reefla sola grim sepho Delhi carissa ulstumdere frasaz myths silph monera"

After he said all those kind of words which Chandler was just confused after he heard that, Sir Zolritch's aura started moving to Chandler and entered him through his chest.

At that exact moment, Chandler felt a kind of energy assault him. It was just like when he was in his room. It circulated all over his body. He could feel it flow in his veins like his own blood. This was an incredible sensation.

It was then that the circle they were in lit golden and shine all over the room they were in. It was amazing. Sir Zolritch was asking himself why it was lighting golden.

More and more, Golden lightning could be seen appearing here and there all over the circle and intensifying on Chandler. He started emitting a golden aura too with golden lightning all over it. It surrounded his body and increased every seconds that passed by.

It became so intense that it was out of control. Streaks of golden lightning was seen striking on the walls of the room, damaging it so much that the crumbles couldn't be seen again. Just turning to mare dust.

Sir Zolritch who was seeing all these was amazed and confused at the same time. Amazed that this was the first time he saw such a power lightning before his eyes and confused that this was made by a non Zolritch. He kept acting himself why.

Why was the grace of lightning given to Chandler who wasn't a Zolritch at all. He was an outsider. No other Zolritch was ever able to have this grace. They all had the lightning but it was blue and not golden. This finally confirmed him why the gauntlets shone golden when he was in the underground armory.
