"Father Patricia. I guess we need to take a look at the inner grassland of the Lavender Temple" said a priest.
"You are right, Priest Iris" father Patricia replied.
Although Iris is a priest in this temple because of his behaviour most of the time it seems like he doesn't adore Ryan much, due to his extremely blunt and straightforward personality
It's not even impressive that he does not even try to hide his displeasement towards Ryan. Mostly he accuses Ryan for throwing traumas when he needs to guide the other kids of the temple.
Ryan is a fourteen years old boy, who never does reckless acts such as troubling the other members of the temple then what made him alter his heart? Most of the nun's and pristine are engaged in Ryan's search, along with some kids and higher authority Priest.
"Ryan! Ryan, where are you?" An old man with tinted black hair asked .He has a clipped beard. That's more of a reason that He looks similar to a character in kids' poems .whose name was Mr. Gimmick.
At reckoning, he must be in his fifties because his face is time-chiselled and weather-beaten. At times he seems a bit spiritless as if life and old age are getting the better of him. Other priests acknowledge him as the owner of this divine Temple or father Patricia.
In this world, humans are granted four special kinds of abilities. including their four different stages of awakening. Everyone celebrates their last awakening stage before they reach puberty.
Slight changes begin to show in their bodies. Later after becoming an adult, the complete awakening stage celebrates it as the 'DEMON' awakening.
D stands for Divinity, Individual who contains this power is mostly referred to as a pure being or closer to Gods.
E stands for Elementalist which is rare. only one out of a thousand get this strength . And if the individual doesn't know how to control the energy. It's just like jumping into a pit of hell.
M - Magic or witchcraft, it's simply the inner strength of the Individual, five elements body after highly mutation, took a shapeless structure considered as mana.
O - None. It means Void. This power is not entirely useless but It contains specific merits. such as psychics' abilities.
N - Necromancer, Finally the type of 'Black Magic' which is banned for security purposes but still performed illegally.
Ryan has a rare case to the extent that it's not even categorised in a category. There are some written manuscripts in history as evidence but Nothing specific.
It is ,so happens that he has a combination of two abilities within him. Individuals who contain this kind of ability can't suppress the age past 10 and die eventually due to the uncertain amount of mana disability in their bodies.
It all began 13 years ago when Ryan was born with divine energy which was occasionally imbalanced with his mother's necrosis energy within him.
Although It didn't make Ryan upset, to begin with He has a confident personality because of which he behaves like a self assured individual over the authentic, experience of his ability, perspective, along with his efficiency that somehow also visible in his golden Pupils that perfectly suits with his honey-coated shiny hair .In due respect of his behaviour Ryan gives the vibe off a dazzling bright sun shimmer in a dark monsoon weather.
"There is no way you can find me!" Ryan, mumbles in confidence .He has been preoccupied in encircling himself within a secret compartment that is present underneath the pond.
"It's important for me .I hope at the very least some of my nightmares will be answered. I have been hiding in this blank space for two hours, which I found underneath the pond in the temple's garden while playing and its whereabouts were only known to me, Joseph and Jeremy."
A month ago when Ryan was inspecting the temple in search of his necrosis teacher instead of her, what Ryan's encounters was an unexpected situation.
He overheard a secret conversation between Iris and father Patricia. The conversation was regarding his mother that led him to know of how his mother left him inside the Temple when He tried to listen more.
Although both of them were engaged in talking but when Ryan took some closer steps to listen more clearly.
Iris caught him red-handed and for further investigation he tightened his grip over his shoulder and asked "How much do you hear?" Along with the devastated face he made at that time.
Ryan remembers how Iris could not let go of his arm until Ryan had not revealed everything to him.
"Nothing at all and I didn't even hear that my mother's name was 'Eunoia' .Not either this that She was the former Empress," Ryan replied furiously. on which Iris' eyes widened as soon as he heard the word 'Empress'.
The grief of Ryaniar mother's death remained hidden to him, up until now and not to mention the matters regarding his father .Who is his father?
Despite knowing that the Emperor is his father.
Ryan isn't interested in his wellbeing at all. He gives more interest to remember what happened afterwards when Iris scolded Ryan for disturbing the conversation and told him to leave immediately and not to forget the warning he got to keep his mouth shut, since then Ryan's heart felt uneasy.
He wisely concluded to himself that he would hide from all of them unless they won't agreed to reveal the reality of his past and his mother to him.
Furthermore, Iris is standing alone near the pond .He is really busy in rewinding his memories in regards to the troublemaker we know as Ryan.
He knows more than anyone else why? Ryan is doing this, still his worries did not subsided until he had not gotten a sign of his hidden space, after which he analysed that the pond is 0.3 cm in length apart from its original location.
It's such a minor difference that no one has ever thought that underneath there could be any hidden passage.
Suddenly Ryan's body began to float in the air automatically; he didn't know whose magic is casted on him .It easily drafted him out from his zone and the person who casted the spell was none other than priest Iris.
It makes Ryan annoyed because he is not expecting this.
Again he assumes a persecution that Iris must try to invade in his plan but not to such an extent, it's coax his struggle turns out to be wasted .Gazing straight into Iris eyes Ryan scrunch his nose .It makes Iris to roll his eyes elsewhere, in response even so he had already admitted long ago since he came back to the temple that Ryan has always been a genuine reason, behind his tough life .However what makes Ryan worse to deal with was always his self esteemed behaviour. Today's circumstances can also be taken as an example.
For Ryan. Iris' personality is like a sharp eagle who always preys his eyes on him without his knowledge. Sometimes it's really unbearable to go through all this solitary confinement alone as a kid.
Just like him Ryan also doesn't adore priest Iris either and some of the reasons for his repulsive behaviour towards him is that
He never tries to understand him and always concludes that everything or will be provoked by Ryan which also created a self insecurity and disappointment in Ryan's behaviour towards Iris.
On the other side, Patricia gasps that Ryan is drenched in cold water because of the pond. It makes him worried about his weak body. Before trying to dry Ryan's wet hair by putting a soft towel on his head he said "Oh! My Goddess Ryanair, you are drenched my child. You need to change your clothes now, otherwise catching a cold in this freezing weather is not a big deal for a withering body such as yours "
As soon as possible, They All went to the prayer room and thoroughly diagnosed his body before trying to balance his unsettled energy which is always a big problem for his feeble body. There are more than two energies working within, that unconventionally makes him in a cautious situation for reviving his sanity.
It will be an incredibly tough task for Iris and Patricia to establish Ryan's energies back to normal; the probability is almost 0.99 by 100. Iris's mind is in Chaos no matter how many times he calculates it's always equivalent to zero and lesser than one.
Eventually Jeremy and Joseph came to the prayer room.
Joseph and Jeremy are twin brothers who are just one year apart in age in comparison to Ryan. They also live inside the temple along with the other orphaned kids and are known for being Ryan's best friend .Everyone calls them 'Je' and 'Jo' along with Ryan's sole mate buddies.
They both are here to see Ryan's condition. However before they could be able to say anything Ryan began to glare at them. Well his behaviour is quite obvious because besides 'Jo' and 'Je' there was no one who knew about the hidden passage but to be honest they are innocent in spite of that,
their spine got chills when their eyes with Ryanair.
In instinct Or Due to nervousness They turned their eyes to somewhere else.
Although 'Jo' and 'Je' did nothing wrong Priest Iris was the right person who first found Ryan out of the blue. but they have no time to argue for that as they can analyse Ryan's condition is deteriorating, as every second passes by.
Rather than withstand Ryaniar's suffering through a seizure. What's good for them is to leave right away.
Ryan is more safe in the hands of father Patricia and priest Iris .They will pledge their innocence to him later, on a more reliable occasion.
Analysing the current situation Iris concluded inside his mind that 'Simply putting aside the matter of facts it's all due to Ryan's stubborn behaviour. Now the situation got out of control and not to mention father Patricia's extremely sensitive behaviour towards Ryan Is also an hindrance. It makes things complicated for me to solve it in the usual proportion.'
"Argh ....." Suddenly Ryan lost his strength and got knocked to the floor. That's a sign for Patricia and priest Iris to strengthen their consciousness and immediately evacuate everyone out of the prayer room; there is no one left in the room except the two of them and Ryaniar.
Patricia asked in an alarming voice "Where is Iannae?? Is it not she needed to be here in a tough circumstance such as this, for avoiding misconception as the current. She is the only one who can stabilise our Ryan state through her Necromancer abilities".
We both can only overcome his sufferings through our divine vitality but over a time we need her"
Iris replied "she is on an errands"
Father Patricia shook his head and replied "There is no way we both can maintain his power alone without her" Iris remembered that before going, Iannae left her mana bottle in his care which can be used in case of emergency such as this for establishment
Being a liable necromancer who could not leave her duty unfinished she prepared in advance just prior leaving she left a fragment of her mana inside a bottle and handed it over to Iris as he tries to find the bottle, that he succeed to get after a while, Nevertheless withstanding the variant purple colour fragment at the bottom of that tiny bottle which is reliably sufficient for Ryan, despite of being small in size. he feels revealed.
When Iris was just a distance apart from Ryaniar's bed, inevitably he got tripped and the bottle slipped from his hand, falling onto the floor it nearly wracks
and got barely spared after unexpectedly thrusting the floor although the bottle was not broken yet but they don't know until how? this tiny glass bottle can keep up with.
"phew..." with a small sigh. Patricia said inside his mind "This was a close call and a correct example of wet flour in poverty"
Iris almost lost Iannae's bottle of mana. He immediately asks forgiveness relatively, for his clumsy demeanour and rushes straight near to Ryan's bed, who is coveres in cold sweat from head to toe, his slightly unconscious body is suffering a lot.
A purple smoke all over coveres the inner place must be due to the sudden cracks at the bottle's head that makes a heavy voice to hear along with the….
'boom'. . . .
