" what's the name? "Seraphinna became abashed and looked down " actually.... I don't know if the name is correct, but it the see of the dead "She paused as she thought of something then added as she looked up" have you heard of that place "
Khaos frowned " why are you looking for a book about that place "
' should I tell him or not ' Seraphinna thought for a while then decided on not telling him" I have an assignment on it "Khaos raised a bow but didn't make a comment, instead stood up and started walking, Seraphinna quickly followed after him keeping a three feet distance.
As they walked Seraphinna observed him for the back, her mind began to wonder' it's undeniable that his quiet handsome but his really something else, all I wanted was to ask for a favour and his looking at me like as if I'm an annoying bee bussing in his ear "Seraphinna complained to her self that she didn't noticed when he stopped walking and was now staring at her.
Seeing that she was just a step away from bumping into him, he put his hand on her head to stop her. Seraphinna felt something warm on her head she blinked and looked up meeting those black eyes, she was stunned, for some reason she felt those eyes looked of fully familiar but where had she seen it form that was the problem.
" Are you done "" huh " Seraphinna was confused Khaos removed his hand from her head and walked towards a shelf removed a book and handed it to her.Seraphinna still looked skeptical as she collected the book, she watched as he walked away and like lighten that stroke she instinctively ran and held his hand stoping him from walking father.
Khaos stopped in his tracks, he slowly looked back. An image flashed in Seraphinna mind, but as quickly as it came it disappeared, she frowned." is there anything else? "" huh? " Seraphinna followed his line of sight, she swiftly release his hand. Khaos frowned " sorry " She looked down mortified Khaos turned to continue walking when Seraphinna stopped him again but this time by standing in front of him.She held the book in her hand looking up at him " u mm.. could you wait untill I'm done reading the book before you leave "
Khaos expression read ' why? '" I can't leave on my own I'll get lost and also I wasn't observing the way as we walked " She slowly added as she looked down" please "Khaos stood there for some time before walking away. Seraphinna stood there blankly, although she expected that she wasn't still mentally prepared.She sighed and walked to the area for reading, she drew out a chair and sat down woefully.She drooped the book on the table before opening to the first page to read.
Seraphinna heard a sound beside her and glanced over, To her astonishment she watch as khaos pull out the chair beside her and sat down. Khaos opened the book in his hand and focus his attention on reading, from the corner of his eye he cut the sight of the smiled on Seraphinna face.
Seraphinna never thought that he would not come back. But she knew she was very happy when she saw him. She focused her attention backed on the book.
SEA OF THE DEAD
' Sea of the dead ' a place where the sun never rises. The water surface appears glassy reflecting the moonslight, the sea floor is littered with the remains of forgotten civilization.
Each relic tells a tale about lived lost, dreams shattered, hopes extinguished.
What was normally not meant to be became what it is now, fostering the grievance of the lost souls, it is said who ever enters will be devoured by the crys of the forgotten.
Seraphinna read on, almost losing trail of time.
* DONG *
The the clock struck. Indicating it was lunch over. Khaos put down his book and turned to his side, today Seraphinna hair was packed into a pony tail, allowing some strands to fall loose, revealing her slender neck. Khaos observed her for a few minutes, he stood up and closed the book in front of her.
" huh? " Seraphinna blinked thrice out of confusion, she looked at the hand that closed the book before slowly looking up.
" you don't plan on staying here for the hole day, do you? "Seraphinna looked out from the window, seeing it was already late" oh, no "Seraphinna stood up about to carry the book with her when another hand neat her to it " you aren't done reading? "
" oh I'm done "She watched him carry the book and return it to the shelf, seeing he was starting to leave, she instantly followed behind him.
When she saw her friends at the corner, she stopped him " thank you, my friends are over their I'll be going " after saying that she left to meet her friends.
When Eliana and Lily saw Seraphinna come back, they put away the book they had.
" you went missing again? " Eliana wasn't happy when she couldn't find Seraphinna again
" sorry about that "Seraphinna apologized.
" did you find the book? " Lily asked, Eliana forgot about her dissatisfaction as she heard about the book.
" I did, but I didn't find anything relating to what I dreamt about " Seraphinna explained.
" Oh, then let's leave before we are late for class " Lily said
" Ok "
" Ok "
Together they walked out of the central keep, Eliana and Seraphinna waved good bye to Lily when they reached the door of her classroom before heading to theirs. After class they went back to their rooms to rest. Inside Eliana room Seraphinna laid on the bed, crossed her leg leisurely while reading a book she was still on her uniform.
* BANG *
Seraphinna was happily enjoying her book when the loud sound of the door echoed in the room. Standing there was Eliana who was excited there was an obvious smile on her face as she walked towards Seraphinna, she sat down be side her and said in a dramatic tone
" Guess what? "
Seraphinna rolled her eyes
"I can't guess, what you have to say better be something reasonable to allow you walk in while leaving the door open "
Eliana looked at the door, she walk over and closed it before running back to gossip.
" I just heard that next Saturday the seniors are going to hole the elite questfire " Eliana eyes glittered as she talked.
" What's that? " Seraphinna attention was still on the book as she asked.
" Oh, you wouldn't have heard of it, the Elite questfire is a challenge they hole every two months and it's so exciting that I'm able to attend one on my first stay in Arcania Crypta. The Elite questfire is like a challenge among the seniors, the senior that want to take part in the challenge will write down their name and draw a slot who ever are paired up will compete with each other to see who's more stronger. Since we are just new students we can't participate " She sighed " when my brother was here he too took part in the Elite questfire, he was able to make it to the top ten but lost after wards he was really hard broken "
Eliana shook her head
" Also, the Elite questfire is like a battle field where you can challenge your archrival for a duel, it's quiet exciting. "
After listening to what Eliana said, Seraphinna actually started looking forward to this Elite questfire.
" Are teachers also going to be there "
" Yes of course but the activity is only for students there are only there to watch and keep the place in order and avoid cheaters, gosh I can't wait for say to reach "
Eliana slumped on the bed as Seraphinna also stood up.
" I'll be going to my room then it's late already "
Eliana looked more dejected
" Already, ok see you tomorrow"
" Mm "
Seraphinna answered and left.
