"Yes, My child. He is like an angel to us. I heard he won the battle between the king of our neighbourhood kingdom Kokolia."
Ezra wore his shoes and walked away.
Elia was left alone. She carefully looked at the magical orbs.
"Please be safe, Zion. Victory may fall upon your heels. I don't know why, But I think I really miss you."
Elia mumbled to herself.
Two days ago, Aren and his companions were packing their belongings. Dazel packs his and Aren's bag. Aren enjoying reading a book about beasts.
"Finally we got some cluelessness, so we can move now."
Richard said. His face bloomed with joy.
"Yes, Now we can make our plans to defeat the magical beasts."
Stuart said with excitement and his eyes sparkled with excitement as he discussed their plan to defeat the magical beasts. Stuart's hair was perfectly messy, he gently strokes his hairs and flips them up words and his words seemed to flow like honey as he spoke of their quest. Aren felt his heart flutter in his chest as he gazed at his friend's endearing smile. He looks like a more mature man in this position. Any girl sees that, she will affect his cuteness. Aren was captured by his charm. But before he could process his emotions, he felt he was captured by lust attack.
"Agh! Why did this man suddenly use his charm to attack us? If he stays beside me like this I'm sure I'll stay single forever. No girl will look at me.".....
"Yes, you're right." Aren replied to him gently.
Aren couldn't help but feel a pang of guilt. Was Stuart truly unaware of the effect he was having on those around him? Or was he simply oblivious to it? As he glanced at his friends, Aren saw that Richard was equally entranced, his eyes fixed on Stuart with an adoring gaze.
Aren felt a strange sensation wash over him, as if he was being pulled towards the edge of a magical vortex. He knew he had to snap out of it before he became completely under Stuart's spell.
"So, let's get down to business,"
Aren said, trying to sound casual despite the turmoil brewing inside him.
"What's our plan to defeat these magical beasts?"
Stuart nodded enthusiastically, his eyes never leaving Aren's face.
"We need to gather information about their weaknesses and strengths. I've been researching some ancient texts and I think I can help us come up with a strategy."
Richard spoke up, his voice low and husky.
"I've been talking to some sources in the underground world. There's a black market for magical artefacts that might give us an edge against these beasts."
Aren felt a shiver run down his spine as he realised the gravity of their quest. They were venturing into unknown territory, and they needed all their wits and cunning to come out on top.
As they delved deeper into their plan, Aren couldn't help but notice the way Stuart's eyes sparkled with intensity, or the way Richard's voice rumbled with authority. He knew that their friendship was strong enough to withstand any challenge they faced, but he also knew that their bond would be put to the test as they embarked on this perilous journey.
And yet, despite the danger that lay ahead, Aren couldn't help but feel a sense of excitement and adventure wash over him. For in this moment, he knew that he was exactly where he was meant to be – surrounded by his friends, ready to face whatever lay ahead together.
Aren closed the book that he was reading earlier. He stood up on his chair and came to join them and sat down on the couch. Stuart and Richard unspokenly stared at him. It looked like an Angel who was very handsome and gorgeous came towards them. Their eyes don't even blink once in a minute. Aren felt he was unwillingly casting a charm attack on them. Aren looks for Dazel to confirm it. DAzel suddenly came behind from him and he whispers Aren's ear,
"My Lord, It won't work on me. You need to snap out of it. Something is fishy. I think it's the effects of the magical orbs."
Aren was trembling by Dazel's hot breath. He curiously looked at Dazel.
As Aren whispered back to Dazel, he couldn't help but feel a sense of relief wash over him. It seemed that his friend was immune to the charm attack, and he was grateful for that. But as he turned to face Stuart and Richard, he saw that they were still under the spell, their eyes fixed on him with an unnerving intensity.
"Effects of Magical Orbs?"
Aren repeated, trying to sound calm despite the turmoil brewing inside him.
"What do you mean?"
Dazel leaned in closer, his voice dropping to a whisper. "I think the orbs are emitting a subtle magical frequency that's affecting our emotions. It's making us see each other in a way that's not quite... real."
Aren's eyes widened as he processed Dazel's words. "But why would someone do that?"
"I'm not sure," Dazel replied,
"But I think it might be connected to the magical beasts we're trying to defeat. Whoever created these orbs might be trying to manipulate us into doing their bidding."
Stuart and Richard were still entranced, but Aren could see a glimmer of recognition in their eyes. They were starting to come back to themselves, slowly breaking free from the charm's hold.
"But what can we do about it?"
Aren asked, his mind racing with the implications.
Dazel nodded thoughtfully.
"I think we need to destroy the orbs or find a way to neutralise their effects. Otherwise, we'll be walking into a trap."
The three friends exchanged worried glances. They knew they had to act fast, but they also knew that they had no idea where to start.
As they pondered their next move, Aren couldn't help but feel a sense of unease.
"Who was behind this mysterious attack, and what did they want from them? And more importantly, how could they break free from the magical orbs' influence and save themselves from whatever dangers lay ahead?" Aren is thinking his mind.
