MERCIA
25. Reborn.

Aruna takes August away, but on the way, August again feels pain in his chest he yells, Aruna pulls out of her car she tries to neutralize the pain with her strength. his body suddenly emitted a golden light, he twitched violently, from the scars appeared a pitch-black smoke.

Aruna saw that directly opening the glass of the car, he raised his palm towards the black smoke, from his palm appeared a greenish ray of light pushing the black smoke out from inside the car.

Aruna shows his strength because he believes August is unconscious in his view, but for August he is like moving places.

He is now in a hallway that is only illuminated by the torch light on his right and left, in the distance visible a beam of light, August berjala towards the light. The light was increasingly clear, it was the light of the sun, the passageway was like a path upstreaming the great hall of an ancient building, visible to its right left a huge statue twenty meters high.

August finally reached the large hall, sunlight was seen entering between the ventilation holes, August looked around, there were no doors, only five chairs without a table. he looked confused, he looked confused, why he could be here, he decided to go back down the aisle in the opposite direction, but when he turned the body of the aisle it disappeared. August panicked, suddenly the voice of a woman behind him sounded.

"Calm down."

August turned his back, and now he saw five people sitting in a previously empty chair. August took two steps back.

"s. who are you?" ask August.

A woman sitting in the middle, got up from her chair.

"we are the manifestation of the possessor of the power that is within your body."

"power? what power..? I don't have any power."

"wait.. am I dead? ask August.

"you're alive, you're in your subconscious right now, because this is where we can finally talk to you" she said.

"who are you, what do you want?" ask August.

"you have been chosen to accept our power to eliminate the demonic power that will threaten your world"

it must be just a dream, August thought.

"it's real not a dream" the woman said.

"Huh..how do you know your mind?" ask August wonder.

"i told you you're in your subconscious."

"My name is Calanis My power comes from the light, you've met one of my descendants in the river, on the right end of that iron body Callon, when Bryan beats you his power protects you so much that you don't feel pain. beside her Legolin when you saved the two children in the garden her strength made you move quickly.By my left side is called Healer she is a healing woman, the poison in your body is lost because of her strength and lastly her name is Pendragon." calanis.

"what's his power?!" ask August.

"you'll find out later" Calanis said

"you guys seem to be wrong people, I'm just a regular person' August said.

suddenly the hall changed, now August was on a high cliff below it was seen a vast plain where two armies were fighting, and, he saw five people who were in the hall fighting against someone, then they killed him. Before the person died out a black beam from his body, and then they killed him, then the beam split into four parts and shot towards the four corners of the wind.

The scenery changed again, now he saw the five people emit a different color light from his chest and then move the light to a crystal.again the scene changed, and, this time August was in a gazebo by the lake, the lake water was blood red, the forest behind him was burning, he saw around him a person he knew lying covered in blood. Both of his parents, Mr. Borris, Rafael, Nora, Aira, Aruna then he saw Julia he was still moving, August ran towards Julia, he lifted Julia's body in his arms.

"August.help me.." said Julia.

"Hold on.. Julia. You'll be safe" August tearfully.

suddenly a figure jumped in front of August, he used a protective head that had two horns on it. His body was wrapped in black metal with glowing lava. in his right hand holding a large sword with a blaze of fire, he swung the sword towards August's neck. August closed his eyes. After a while he did not feel anything August opened his eyes he was back in the hall, now he saw the five people staring at him.

August was completely shocked his body was shaking.one of the women named Healer approached him, he stretched out his palm, the woman did not speak just nodded, gesturing. August put his palm over the woman's palm, the warmth flowed, he felt calm.

"Tears have been shed, but you can prevent millions from spilling" Calanis said.

"i'm afraid I can't take that responsibility" August said.

"i'm not a hero" he added.

"Hero is not created in one day, you will not fight alone, you are the chosen soul to pave the way, they will follow you" Calanis said.

"what's the consequence?" ask August.

"your old life is over, you'll see the world differently."

"August Garcia is dead, you were reborn and your name is Mercia now"

"are you willing to go down that road?" ask Calanis.

"a. I. I am willing." replied August.

From a distance there was a soft sound of wind rumbling along with the sound of thunderclaps moving closer, August just sat down on his knees, the hall where he was in began to collapse the wind had swept over the building, but had no effect on August, calanis and the others slowly turned into particles of dust particles and flew swept in the wind, in front of August there are now five marbles-sized rays with different colors of green, red, gold, and so on, the blue and white light penetrated August's forehead.

At the moment when the beam pierced through his forehead, August saw pieces like video footage of the power information he absorbed. his body twitched violently, he felt a hot and cold air to stab at the bone. his brain wanted to explode. He could only scream withstanding the excruciating pain.

Aaaaagghh....!

Blukarr...!

A violent explosion occurred, August's body floated twenty meters above the ground.His body emitted a golden white light.His eyes were flaming red.he then looked below him, he then saw, there are four women with golden spears, chains, gold, and trident, they are Aruna, Aira, Carrol and Lyra.

"a.. what happened?" ask Aira.

"He. he has absorbed all the power of that crystal!" said Lyra.

The four of them were stunned to see the incident. August slowly came down, he looked sharply at the four of them.

Aira took three steps forward, she opened the mask that covered her face

"August do you remember me?" ask Aira.

aira's sudden movements were actually considered like a threat. August raised his index finger and then came out a blue-colored beam hit Aira's chest.Aira's explosion bounced dozens of meters into the wall of the temple gate, the wall was destroyed.

zap. duarr..

Aira vomited fresh blood she could not stand. she fell unconscious.

Aruna, immediately put on a watchful attitude.

"August be aware." said Aruna.

August looked at Aruna. Aruna dropped his spear he released his body armor. Lyra and Carrol looked on anxiously.

"Aruna what are you doing?" ask Carrol.

"Drop your weapon Carrol, he sees us as a threat, don't make a sudden move" Aruna said.

"you're the woman who wants to kill me!" August says.

August again raised his index finger towards Aruna.The blue light shot rapidly towards Aruna, Aruna dropped herself to the side.he took her golden spear and then threw towards the blue light.

The encounter of the blue light and the golden spear produced a fierce explosion.

Blegargr..

August took a step back, while Aruna and the others bounced a dozen meters away.

The view of the temple is currently very terrible.some walls were destroyed.many were injured.when August wanted to finish off Aruna.he heard the sound of crying of a small child.

"mom.mom.I'm afraid.get up"

August slowly realized that the light in his body slowly disappeared, he approached the child, in front of him was rubbed by the figure of his mother.When the child saw August walking towards him he was getting scared, he was getting scared, but Hedya suddenly appears before August, protecting the boy.

"You don't hurt him" Hedya said.

August did not comment on his words.he checked the pulse of the mother, the woman was Manila.

"he's alive. Bring me a glass of water." August asked Hedya without looking at him.

Hedya hesitated, she glanced at her mother, Lyra nodded, she left, before long she returned with a glass of water in her hand. August received the glass filled with water.The water suddenly turned greenish and then returned to normal.he raised Manila's head, opened his mouth, the water in the glass poured into the woman's mouth. in just a few seconds the woman realized the wound on her body had instantly disappeared.

August handed the remaining water in the glass to Hedya.

"Give it to Aira" said August.

Hedya received the rest of the water. "what about the others?" ask Hedya.

August saw a fountain that was slightly damaged.he walked up to the pool his right hand he dipped, the pool water immediately churned greenish, he pulled his hand quickly, he pulled his hand quickly, the entire pool water flew into the air and spread out and then fell back like a raindrop.All those who were exposed to the water instantly lost their pain and injuries.

Aira had regained her senses, the wounds in her body had healed. August walked up to Aira and hugged her.

"forgive me."
