MERCIA
23. Secret Oracle.

"Boss, it seems like the child is indeed not as simple as we think" said a bodyguard.

"say" said Jacky.

"i don't understand the reason but, an agent is investigating, The red knight group is also watching the child" the bodyguard said.

"What" Jacky was surprised.

"Boss.I don't care about that agent, but if we offend Lord Gorran's group it's fatal."

"we have to have another way for the group not to suspect us" the bodyguard said.

"How important is that kid to the red group do you think?" ask jacky.

"i don't know what they want from the boy, but the boy's existence is enough to make Lord Gorran have to intervene on his own.he is already in this city" the bodyguard said.

"Well!" Jacky dumbfounded.

"Boss.there are two things we can do right now, we wait for what the group will do to the boy, or you can just ask him, right away, you are one of the leaders of the black eagle" said the bodyguard.

"Hmm.., I'll think about it." said Jacky.

"Mother please tell me how my father died, was it really the man named Mordo who killed my father?" ask Hedya.

Lady Lyra sighed she stroked her son's hair when others saw them both would think their relationship was just a brother and sister, a similar face and age that looks not much different is one of the reasons. Hedya had asked similar questions, after getting an explanation he finally understood. after some new events he had experienced. His mind opened slowly he accepted that he also had proxima blood now he could see everything clearly.

"what if I tell you how your father lived?" Lyra asked back.

Hedya smiled.

"at that time I was assigned to capture Gorran, I managed to make him desperate, but a strange incident occurred, the sky suddenly reddened and became pitch-black, then came dozens of portals from other worlds. Gorran took the opportunity to escape he and two other people into one of the portals, I chased him into the portal that looks unstable."

"i didn't know the state of proxima after that, when I came out of the portal and arrived in this world that's when I met your father."

"he pointed a gun at my head" said Lyra, her eyes looking up at the sky.

"then what did you do?" ask Hedya.

"mother told him that if the weapon could kill Gorran, then the weapon could kill me, but if not then only the mother could kill Gorran."

"your father then told me that Gorran had been killing people in the city for the past month, that ungainly portal had brought him here a month before he arrived"

"mother fought Gorran killing two of her subordinates, but somehow one-third of my power was lost until Gorran managed to hurt me, he escaped. the people of this world still see me as a threat even though mother has helped them, they want to finish me off but your father saved me taking me away, he is willing to sacrifice his life to take care of me, he said, my heart melted when he asked me to marry him."

"when you were pregnant we went to proxima, but they didn't accept it, they kicked me out, even threatening to kill you at birth and your father. your mother and father returned to this world and we hid, we fought against all the threats from the two worlds that wanted to harm you."

"Hedya, I firmly believe you are destined to be a bridge of two worlds, with the help of the child everything is not impossible to be realized."

"They were from Armeda, their clan was split into two groups, but now they are both united to protect the child" Lyra said.

"actually what happened to August?" ask Hedya.

"Thousands of years ago a king allied with the devil he asked for power to master proxima, but the five Masters managed to kill him, but they were unable to eliminate the demonic power, they knew that power would reappear in the future, so the Masters agreed to find the right person to accept the power of the five of them, they release the power core in the form of pure air and transform it into a crystal medium."

"Proxima was in the dark, someone named Clawrit managed to find the power of the devil, with his power he created tyranny.he wanted to master proxima, he wanted to, and sooner or later he'll be eyeing the world too."

"your aunt said the crystal had chosen the boy, but the boy had not realized there was any great power in him" Lyra said.

"My mother, what's her name?" ask Hedya.

"People call him Oracle, you'll meet him, if you're in his sight" Lyra said.

"meaning mother? I don't understand?" ask Hedya.

"Oracle is not a fighter, even though his strength is very large, he is able to see some possibilities in the future, when you are in his vision, he will give you some options without explaining the reason, he said, that choice will be very influential for yourself and others good or bad."

"what's in it for him?"

"you don't get me wrong, the Oracle is one of the guards of proxima, the person in his vision is the one who will fight with him against Clawrit" Lyra said.

"didn't Mom say she wasn't a fighter?" Hedya.

"really, the oracle kept her power for only one last fight, she never said the reason but it was a choice given to her" Lyra said.

"how did he gain that power of vision?" ask Hedya.

"He fell into a black portal when we were chased by Clawrit's forces all my comrades were killed, mother survived.After several hours she went back to look for him, the portal opened again and the mother saw him as a different figure.When the mother asked him, he said that he had been trapped in the portal for five years, and he has found a way to defeat Clawrit."

"enough for today, now practice with them" Lyra said.

"well ma'am" Hedya nodded.

Julia looked at the ceiling of her room, her encounter with the mysterious woman in the forest was very disturbing her mind.

Am I really going to lose it? Aira had said that before, now the mysterious woman.What exactly happened? who exactly is that woman? inner Julia raging.

beeping.beep.Julia's mobile phone vibrates displaying a text message from August.

'where are you? I'm taking you to dinner. I'll wait at Rosianna Kitchen at eight.'

Julia smiled then replied 'good' accompanied by an emote kiss that almost filled the screen.

Nothing makes Julia feel happy and happy but to spend time with August, her childhood friend who has now become her lover.
