The needle of the clock stopped beating, as well as people who were hiding, in an instant stopped like mannequins in various styles. No one had managed to escape the influence of that large-scale magic, except Xiao Jun. The young man stood next to Weini who was sculpting with narrowed eyes and slightly open lips. The expression on the girl's face seemed to change almost every second as Xiao Jun watched her. Only from the look of the face was it what convinced Xiao Jun that the girl's tribe had already come out of her body.
“Dina... Grace... Stevan?” Xiao Jun called one by one his friends who he believed were hiding in this room. No one denied it, so Xiao Jun had to move from Weini's side. Walk through every corner of the room to find other residents sneaking here.
Armed with the lighting from his phone, Xiao Jun had just realized one thing that time had really stopped. The feature in his phone could not work, as it should if there was no signal. Fortunately, it can still be turned on the screen, even though it cannot be used to access the outside world.
It was not difficult to find the hiding position of his other comrades. “Grace?” Xiao Jun called out then gently shook Grace's shoulder which was crouching behind the sofa. Same with Weini, the girl also stared with a smiling face. Xiao Jun shook his head, things became chaotic as well as beyond his prediction. The application that he had calculated well, apparently could fall apart due to this unexpected obstacle.
“Who so great messed things up? Why am I the only one who is aware?” Xiao Jun asked himself, a heavy confusion engulfing him. Whether he has to find answers to anyone, he is like trapped in another world, between him who is gone or his friends who stave there?
“Can't we unite Hwa? Why in this precious moment, when I think there is no more barrier, still something is blocking us?” Omitting Xiao Jun, his tangled mind was very difficult to dismiss. Moreover, he was confused by the circumstances that he had never faced before.
Xiao Jun came back to Weini, surprised to find Weini's face changing again, like enduring pain, like crying. Xiao Jun clasped her, afraid to see the girl being hurt by who and where. He really doesn't know what to do to help his girl right now. “Hwa, where are you? What the hell are you doing? How should I help you?” shivering Xiao Jun sounded very heart-wrenching, unfortunately no one could hear him. Xiao Jun felt alone in this dark world.
In that embrace, Xiao Jun could feel the coldness of Weini's body. Not even a heartbeat felt from the girl as they hugged, it further added to the fear from Xiao Jun. Makes her more tightly clutched the body of her lover.
“Should I let you suffer alone? I promised to take care of you, I'd make you happy, but I don't even know where you are now and what you're dealing with. Hwa. I love you, come back. Marry me Hwa.” Ominously Xiao Jun, his heart kept thinking of ways that he could drag the Weini tribe back inside his body.
“Dad... Can you hear me? What should I do now?” Xiao Jun, hoping that the father could listen to the screams of his heart.
Such a sincere request as well as a drop of tears falling from Xiao Jun's eyelids dripped Weini's fingers. Although he is a man, it does not mean he cannot cry when threatened to lose the person he loves. Xiao Jun wouldn't let that happen, didn't want to let Weini go.
“You have a way...your strength is love.” A male voice resounded echoing, stopping Xiao Jun's cry in an instant. It dawned on him that it was the voice he had heard, the voice of his ancestors.

“Uhuk... uhuk Weini coughed a cough after landing roughly down. The snare on her leg was still not free, the lady's shawl was still tightly bound there. But no longer as powerful as before. The unbalanced dispute is clearly found out who the winner is if it continues. But the mysterious woman actually flew closer towards Weini, approached then crouched down in front of Weini who was still weak.
The woman's cold fingers raised Weini's chin, looked at the girl's soft eyes and looked for answers from there. Now he hesitated, because the strange radiance of the eye really did not save the answer he was looking for. “Hmm.... What exactly happened? Why can my master's power be possessed by a weak girl like you? I can't believe he picked the wrong guy. He couldn't possibly choose a girl like you!” The woman murmured, now her voice began to soften, no longer pitched in hatred.
Weini began to feel calm, he could feel that his opponent could be invited to compromise even though somehow fate eventually later. “I Li yue Hwa.. I really don't know who you mean. I... I only studied one person, Wei Ming Fung.” Weini said, telling him what he really knows.
“I don't know!” weini replied firmly, he had already gathered the remaining energy. His hands began to warm up, gathering again his energy and magic that was almost extinguished earlier.
The woman's smile grinned, following the sound of her teeth snapping clearly. After his patience, the opportunity he gave Weini to answer all the puzzles that stuck in the heart. Everything felt useless, Weini still could not give him an answer. It echoes in stifled, highlighting Weini with nanar. “Hmmm.. if you don't know, why would I give you a chance to live. My master cannot choose a person like you! Give me back my master's knowledge! Better you don't have to be in the world!” The bully of the woman then moved back her shawl flying towards Weini.
Weini started to get powered up again, she nimbly dodged the attack. But what he could not predict was the appearance of magic waves that felt like magnets with poles pulling each other. Weini gasped, the magic was similar to the energy-sucking magic he mastered but in a stronger power.
Is there anyone else here besides that woman? weini murmured in her heart, she saw no one there but felt the real presence of her magic waves.
“Just kill you!” the woman shouted as she stomped her shawl. Weini who had not returned to focus was instantly entangled, her neck suffocating from two sides. The scarf wrapped around Weini's body, tight and getting tighter so that Weini's breath felt tight.
I don't want to die like this. Jun... Jun... weren't we together? Lirih Weini, in the rest of her limited strength, she could still remember about her lover. Recalling their existence before falling into the dark dimension.
Weini's body was held up high by the shawl the woman was playing with. Without mercy, without the slightest bit of mercy on the person who does not understand the intent of his heart. The woman intended to finish Weini off with her cold hands.
Prangs! A loud voice that sounded like the sound of broken items, came from above that looked pitch-black. So loud that it distracts the woman, looking up to check what sounds are disturbing her interests. Amidst the blank twists and turns that wrapped his entire body like a cocoon, Weini could still peer out from the crack of the cloth on her face, there was a beam of light shining down from above. Like the light that was sent down from the sky, so high was this boundless place.
“Ng... who would dare to tease me!?” Screeched the woman while flying towards the source of the commotion. There was no reply whatsoever, there was precisely the sound of fragments coming back. Dark flakes fell from above, hitting Weini who was still wrapped around but he could see the dark flakes scattered like dust in the wind.
Slowly the cloth ties that ensnared Weini felt a little loose, looser and the shriek of the mysterious woman was heard again. “Tidaaaak!”
A bright light infiltrated from the sky, illuminating the pitch-black, killing the shadow below and threatening the life that ruled over the darkness he created. The twists on Weini's body finally came off as the bright light that had dominated the darkness. But when Weini tried to look further, wanted to hunt the woman who was struggling because of the light, in fact the opponent remained untouched. His figure began to disappear, blurred from Weini's eyes that felt heavy again now. Unbearably, Weini could not prevent herself from falling asleep. And among the consciousness that was at that threshold, Weini still caught a voice that he was very familiar with.
“Hwa... return.” And that was the voice of her lover, Xiao Jun.
Calm Weini's heart, he finally got the answer that he was not alone in this darkness. There was a soul calling out to him, leading him to find a way home. Weini closed her eyes, her body feeling light and perhaps even as light as cotton. His heart felt a sense of peace, but in an instant there was a strange taste that slipped again. Following a whisper that was clearly heard in his ear.
“This is not the end, I will wait for your arrival again. You are not my master, give me back my master!” The voice of the mysterious woman roared clear, inserting terror for Weini again.
