YM778.TV Chapter 95 Things Aren't Always As They Seem
[Erina El Leliana\'s POV]
.

I saw him fighting at a speed that my eyes couldn\'t even trace.
\'Was he this powerful all along?\' I questioned as I tried comprehending the distinction between his previous self and current self.
In a flash, the fight started… and in a flash…
[Your Master has changed from (Kira The Sword Keeper) to (Michael Aroa)]
I saw that strange message out of nowhere…
It all happened in a flash and before my mind could process anything, another message flew in front of me.
[All your powers bound by the Laws have been unlocked!]
\'Huh?\' I saw that message as I realized what it meant. Yet, the messages didn\'t end there…
[Your Master (Michael Aroa)\'s health is in critical condition he-]
Before the message could even complete, I used all my powers at once and shouted,
"[GREATER BLESSING OF THE LIFE GODDESS]!!!!!"
It was my most powerful spell that I learned as the Princess of the Fairies… but it didn\'t just end there…
"[Reverberation]!!!!" I chanted as I once again shouted in the direction where Michael was.
[You Master (Michael Aroa)\'s health has been restored to normal!]
"[Connection]!" I shouted again as I looked at him, slowly vanishing at a distance from my view. His body was healed, yet it was breaking.
\'Is he dying? No… if he was… the strange messages would have told me… but,\' I jumped towards the place where Michael was. There was no trace of Kira around as far as I can see.
Michael has almost vanished and I could see a shocked and confused expression on his face as he finally vanished from my sight.
I tried using a couple of spells on him… but it didn\'t stop the process which was taking place.
Though… I could still feel the connection between him and me… he was still alive.
\'Maybe he returned back to his real world?\' I questioned as I looked round at the red sky. There was a strange red aroma spread all around this place.
"Well… if he is safe…" A bright smile formed on my face. Not only because Michael was alive… not only because he has freed me from the clutches of Kira… but…
"Looks like there is still hope left," I mumbled with a hopeful face as I realized that the fairyland could still be saved. There was still hope.
"Man! That guy was a freak! Just where did you find him?" I heard a voice as my heart skipped a beat before I turned around to see a young man standing, wiping the dirt off his clothes.
"You are back, huh?… what will you do now?" I asked, as I looked at Kira. The guy who should have been dead by now…
"Hmmmm… where does that conf-" and finally he realized… that his powers over me no longer work. He was no longer my master.
The Laws stated that I cannot sustain my life without a master and there is only one way to change my master, that is to fulfill the two conditions. One was that the other person should be able to defeat my current master, and the other was…
"You… Him? You gave him permission… no… that actually makes sense… of course you will change your master… but… Oi! Erina! What will you answer to \'Him?\' "He spoke as he looked at me with a scared look and upon hearing those words… my eyes shook again…
What I had always been afraid of wasn\'t Kira… but the one who was controlling everything behind the scenes. The one who is the mastermind behind everything… Kira… is nothing but a pawn for him…
"We will wait… we will wait till my master gets strong… How long can you stall for time?" I asked Kira, and he was baffled even more. He observed me and asked,
"You aren\'t going to… kill me?"
"You are immortal. How can I kill someone blessed by the Universe?" I asked with a cold smile and he gulped,"you do know… that\'s not what I meant, right?"
Kira was blessed by the Universe where his gift was that he can never be killed no matter how much anyone hurts him. Though, \'He\' found another way to catch Kira. He made him his general and slave, bound him with spells that forbade Kira to even breathe without asking permission from him.
Everything he does is because he has been forced to do… and also because…
I sighed before closing my eyes… and speaking,"if it weren\'t for you, the entire World of Fairies might have vanished, brother. Even though you betrayed the entire race, I kind of know why you did that. Though…" a smile formed on my face as I looked at him,"looks like you too have gained something from this fight."
Yeah… Kira is my brother or, to be more precise… my younger brother.
He observed me for a few seconds before his expression turned serious,"you saw that, huh?"
"Still, what are we going to tell \'Him\'? How long are we gonna stall for time?" he asked again, and I pondered over it for some time.
"Let\'s go to the World of Fairies first. We shall take back a few things that are rightfully ours. We will stall for time as much as we can… until my master comes for me," I spoke as I turned to my left and
"[LIterani]" I muttered before a strange portal opened up in front of me. A portal that will take us back to the Fairy World… or the former Fairy World, Erewhon.
Free from the clutches of Kira, or more honestly, \'Him\', I could now use all my powers to its full potential. And unlike Kira, who was always around me, \'He\' wouldn\'t even know about my freedom unless I got too close to him, which is in all rationality, highly unlikely.
"But… are you sure we can put our hopes in him? I mean, even all the envoys before that have died at \'His\' hands no matter how strong they came and even though he was all powerful… can he really take on \'Him\'?" A doubtful voice came from behind, and I sighed before speaking,
"Do you know whose envoy he was?"
He looked at me for a few seconds before he pondered as he spoke,"Yeah… I kind of have a general idea… or more like there is only one God that fits the right picture here."
I turned my head back to my brother, and we both spoke in unison
"The Envoy of Cronos."
"The Envoy of Cronos."
My brother and I had a keen understanding of each other. We didn\'t need words to exactly understand what was going on in each other\'s minds. You can even say that we can read each other\'s minds without much of a problem.
That\'s the whole reason he and I survived till the very end despite 90% of our entire race being wiped out from the planet by the Apocalypse. Without him… or without me, none of us had survived this long, perhaps even died during the beginning.
"Man! I can see why you think so highly of him… but I don\'t think after pulling another string, we will be able to survive any longer. If \'He\' gets the wind of what we are doing, there will be no escaping. You might die without much problem but I…" he spoke as a chill ran down his spine.
"Better than living like this, brother. Much better," I spoke before I moved into the portal and Kira followed behind me.
It was finally time to prepare for something that I have been waiting for ages now.
