Chapter 4 - Got the book

Ting ting ting....&#

Zyden was abruptly awakened by the sound of an alarm echoing in his ears. In a disoriented state, he found himself lying on the ground. Slowly attempting to open his eyes, he discovered a faint glow of light. With great effort, Zyden managed to sit up and questioned himself, "Did I die or am I alive?" Suddenly, memories of his family flooded back, and he hastily rose to his feet, only to witness the lifeless bodies of his parents and brother. As he grappled with the shocking scene, police officers arrived for an investigation. Despite Zyden's earnest explanation, nobody believed him, and suspicion lingered that he was responsible for the tragedy.

A girl was standing a little distance away, observing and listening to everything unfold.

Then, the police officer, suspiciously scrutinizing Zyden, said, "Come with us; there will be an investigation on you." Anxious, Zyden exclaimed, "I haven't done anything; let me go, please," but the police officer paid no attention and started taking Zyden away. Suddenly, a very bright light appeared, abruptly halting everything, and a person teleported in, grabbing Zyden and taking him away.

Then, before Zyden's eyes stood a beautiful girl who looked incredibly stunning. Seeing her, Zyden was utterly mesmerized, his eyes wide open, unable to look away. Lost in his thoughts, he wondered, "Who is she? Am I in heaven?"

"Don't look at me like that, or I might fall in love," she spoke with a smile.

Zyden becomes shocked and starts running frantically in all directions. Suddenly, he stops....

"Who are you, and where am I? I remember a police officer taking me somewhere, then suddenly, there was a bright light, and after that, I don't remember anything. When I opened my eyes, you were in front of me. Have I died?"

"No, you are not dead; you are alive. The police officer was taking you with him. I saved you using the teleportation technique."

"Hhhhh..Teleportation technique????"

"Yes, why don't you know about teleportation techniques?"

"No, I know. What is teleportation?"

"Alright, forget all that. I think we should introduce ourselves to each other rather than asking so many questions."

"Oh, yes. My name is Zyden, Zyden Sterling. And what is your name?"

"My name is Elena, Elena Grace."

"Just to let you know, your name is not Zyden Sterling; your name is Zyden Stonewood."

"Zyden Stonewood, ewww, what a terrible name. Are you crazy? My name is not that; my name is Zyden Sterling. Please don't mess up my name."

"You really don't understand. Your father was the son of the king of Veridian Heaven, and they belonged to the Stonewood family. So, you are also an heir of the Stonewood lineage.....

What The Fuck! How the hell do you know so much about my family?" And my family, my family is no more. Everyone is gone. I want to go to my family."

"Don't talk like a mad person. Your family is no more, and you can't go home now. If you go home now, you will also die like them."

"Who are you to stop me? I'm leaving from here."

At that moment, Zyden starts to leave. Elena says, "Stop, I'm telling you to stop!"

But Zyden ignores her words and continues walking. Then, Elena raises her hand and uses her magical rope to catch Zyden and bring him close. Zyden becomes anxious and pleads, "Please let me go." Elena says, "Zyden, I am your friend, not an enemy. Just pause for a moment and listen to me."

"I don't have any friends; I don't trust anyone," said with great sadness.

"I can understand what you are going through right now. I have also experienced a similar situation, and I know how it feels when your family is no longer there."

"Has your family also passed away? Spoken with eyes filled with sorrow."

"Yes, my family is also no more. They all were killed by the vortex, unleashing complete terror. And you are the one who can now save us all."

"I couldn't save my own family, so how can I save all of you?" Zyden spoke.

"Only you can save us; no one else can," Elena spoke.

"And yes, I will take you to your home. Once we reach there, our first task will be to find the book that your dad gave to your mom. All the information and powers related to you are written in that book."

A book????? Hhhhhh.....

"Yes, A book"...

"It won't be safe for us to go there right now. If we go now, more troubles will come our way."

"Then Rohit went to sit under a tree in that place, feeling a bit of pain..

"She goes to Zyden and says, 'Sit down peacefully. I'll heal your wounds now.'"

"Can you heal my wounds?

Yes, I can heal your wounds.

So please, I am in a lot of pain, heal my wounds."

"Alright, just watch now.

At that moment, Elena sits in front of Zyden and uses the reverse healing technique. She raises her hands, emitting a white flame from her hands. She brings her flame-filled hands to Zyden's wounds, applying them, and heals him."

(Reverse healing technique). "A person who uses this technique can heal oneself or also can heal others."

"Now Zyden feels better.

"Then, as the sunset arrives, Elena says, 'Let's go, Zyden. We have to reach home to find that book.'"

Okk. Let's move forward to home.

"After reaching home, Zyden's eyes fill with tears. Elena says, 'Zyden, don't cry. I am with you. Don't feel low. Let's find the book.'"

"Yesterday, this was my home, and today, it's just a pile of concrete rubble. Even the dead bodies of my family have disappeared from here. I will take revenge for what happened to me," he said angrily.

"I don't know where that book is. If Dad gave it to Mom, it might be in the wardrobe. The wardrobe is in pretty bad shape; it could be around here somewhere. Elena, listen, I found the book."
