"Fire, holy, burn. Whoever you are, can repeat no? I can't hear you clearly."
Delisa tried to remember clearly what she heard. But the sound was really like a disconnected signal and could not be changed anymore. Even so, he still tried to twist the memories of every remaining word. All of that, must be related to the destruction of the creatures. Not wanting to linger, the woman looked around.
Of twenty-five candles. Only eleven candles remain. On the other hand, there are several types of offerings that still look so good and have not been destroyed because of the actions of the creatures. For a moment Delisa thought calmly to find the best solution. Suddenly, an idea just flashed by and made him smile.
No matter how many you. I am still human and my faith is strong. If you can bother me and not let me find my way home. Then, it's not my fault. If it makes you to get lost in your own nature.~ Inner Delisa, then walk take some candles that are extinguished and do not forget to also take some incense that is still intact.
After getting what he needed, then the incense stick to form a star symbol, then light one candle to another candle that forms a circle. The candle is in the center of the star symbol. The position of the energy sucker of the creature is correct. After making sure his actions are right. Then Delisa returned to her seat.
The woman returned to a cross-legged sitting position with both hands cupped in front of her chest, then began to close her eyes. One breath with a mantra. The wind began to feel changed direction with a sweet aroma. The engrossed feeling mixed with rancid slowly began to decrease. However, it changed with the moans and screams of the creatures.
The lit candle snatched the incense, until the star symbol turned into a black misty door hole. The smell of incense that stings like the scent of honey for the bees. So enticing and undeniable. The path of the destructive door of the creatures began to open, making Delisa have to restrain herself. A great power burst into the sacred circle of ashes.
What Delisa did was very risky. Even so, safety is only in danger. Want, do not want, then have to choose the worst path. Now, the creatures began to be affected with binding spells. It cannot destroy beings because it is still in the same circle. Some moments can only wait.
Delisa's waiting, just like Sulastri's waiting. Where the middle-aged woman was, was being overwhelmed by a sense of dilemma. Princess Kejawi's box was in plain sight and the key she got from the black curtain room was also in hand. Suddenly, his heart hesitated. Some questions are the reason for doubt in the heart. Even so, he could no longer wait.
What will be the fate of his two children? Will Bella and Abil ever get back to normal? If not, then what is he living for. All mysteries with hereditary karma become the bearers of family happiness. Right now, the chain of agreements was almost at its limit. Why is it like that? All because Bella is indeed the eleventh descendant of the family Wagio Supardi.
The great-grandfather who started the deal. Where girls will belong to creatures, but boys will be the successors of the covenant. The chain was like a vine on a banyan tree. The older the tree. Then the more and the length of each tendril that dangles. No one would have expected a simple family to have a secret as dark as a starless night.
It all started just for the sake of a piece of land and an antique house. Not for wealth and prosperity. However, the covenant did not destroy human blood. Moreover, seeking human life as an offering. Still, loyalty and conditions must be kept and for anyone who violates. Then it should be ready to accept the consequences of the Demon Prince.
Among the terms of the agreement was that no family member, let alone outsiders, would enter the black curtain room. Where the room is, is a sacred place for the entombment of the Demon Prince. Second condition for girls born in the house. Where as the offspring of women, then the obligation to replace the position of the ancestors who have died.
The treaty did not fall into the hands of male descendants. Rather it falls into the hands of female descendants. And so, for generations, the story of one parent became elongated because it fused with the story of their children. Sulastri himself is the tenth descendant of his ancestor named Wagio Supardi. If anyone asks, why did she not marry the Demon Prince. So there is only one answer.
The Demon Prince gave the final condition. Where on the eleventh descendant. The princess who was born from that house on a full night and had a special birthmark. The child will be his human wife. This is what makes Mother Sulastri strictly forbid the beloved princess Arabella not to approach the black curtain room. Especially to enter. But destiny says something else.
All her efforts over the years just vanished and it was due to Bella's curiosity. How does a mother say, if the ban she gave all this time is only for the good of the princess. It's too hard to explain. If Bella is the eleventh descendant. The bitter reality that has been trying to be buried into the bottom of the heart. It finally came out without being asked.
"I don't know how to save my two children, but this box must have something. Whatever it is, I have to be ready to take the risk. For Bella and Abil. Bismilbornrahmanirrahim,"
