"Where are you going Nana?" Kiki said as Nana left in a hurry.
"My feeling is not good, I have to check on Azura." Nana tries to leave but Kiki holds her hand.
"Systems don't give us any danger information. You're just hallucinating, the master is very strong" said Kiki.
Nana thought for a moment. Since this morning, his feelings have been bad. Nana let out a long sigh and went into Azura's room to check on Levi inside while Kiki went to deliver the vegetables she had picked up in the garden behind the house to the kitchen.
"Oh, Nana. What was? Tumben's looking for me" said Levi.
"You have a device for me to see Azura at school?" Nana.
"You mean the surveillance device? Coincidentally this morning I put that thing in Azura's uniform. You want to see him? I can" Levi said with pride.
"You're spying on Azura?" Azura said with a suspicious feeling.
"Ah, don't just pay attention heheh." Levi only chuckled at Nana who looked suspicious of him.
"Here you go, you quickly show me Azura's condition." Nana was sitting near Levi who was fiddling with the five square thing in her hand.
Levi placed the fifth square object on the floor, a hologram screen appeared and displayed a broken screen. Nana was still patiently waiting while Levi was confused to see the tool did not display anything.
"Why is this so? Is he not in the mortal world?" Mumbled Levi.
"What's Levi? What's going on?" Ask Nana.
"I don't think Azura exists in the mortal world. My tools are made from materials that exist in the mortal world. My device signal would be useless if not in the mortal world," said Levi and Nana immediately stood up worriedly.
"I think you're in danger" said Kiki who appeared from behind the door.
"I gave my grandmother sleeping pills. We can go to master's school now" Kiki and Nana said in a quick nod.
"I'm coming" said Levi.
In the world of Mental Illusion, Azura slowly disintegrated as she felt the tightness and despair that kept raining down on her. All the traumas, pain and sadness became one and struck him mentally. Azura grabbed her hair firmly. His heart was so tormented to see his grandmother's death repeat itself. His grandmother's last letter even made his heart continue to slit a few back.
"Please everyone stop this" Azura said with tears welling up in her eyes.
His head hurt as well with the shortening of breath. His heart felt on the overlap of something so heavy, Azura ran in an indeterminate direction. Azura didn't want to hear all those desperate screams, it was really slowly breaking down her mentality. Azura fell down when a chain suddenly tied her legs together, as if it was forcing her not to run anymore.
The sound of crying was heard and it made Azura's head eager to break. He tried to open the chain from his feet, not caring about the hand that had been injured as a result of being scratched by the barbed chain. Azura's leg was also injured and made a lot of blood scattered and surrounded Azura.
"Stop this!" Shouted Azura at a place that Azura himself did not know if it had a way out or not.
The chain opened successfully. The blood surrounding Azura was still not dry and mixed with his sweat spilling out bit by bit. Azura stood right in the middle of the blood surrounding her. The voice suddenly disappeared and made quite a strange silence.
"Save us, don't leave us!" The word repeated several times.
Azura looked down and found a number of hands emerging from the pool of blood. Azura was forcibly pulled into it without being able to do anything until she entered it completely in the pool of blood. Azura's vision turned black, she could only feel that something was holding her body, just breathing Azura was very difficult for Azura.
In the darkness Azura heard a whisper in his ear. There was nothing Azura could do, she saw nothing at all. He can only sit with both feet held by something heavy.
"You tired?" Whisper someone in Azura's ear.
"I can stop your suffering, do you want to?" Whisper again.
"You just need to give this pure soul of yours to me as the payment," The voice seemed to hypnotize Azura into obeying him.
"Can this be believed? I'm so tired" Azura said in a small voice.
"Yes, trust me. You'll rest after this," Whispered it as if it felt right in Azura's head.
"Let's grab this hand, "A hand appears in front of Azura.
Darel smiled faintly as Azura was intending to give her soul. Since then Darel has been following Azura in this illusionary world, because he has awareness then it makes him freely follow the illusion made for Azura. The one who hit Azura was Darel, he purposely did just that so that Azura's consciousness was completely lost and immersed in this illusionary world.
"Looks like I'm going to win" muttered Darel
Azura tried to grab him with a blank look. The screams that were on his legs and hands were loose, his heart felt empty and hollow. He seemed to have nothing and just wanted all his sufferers to disappear right now.
"Yes, your choice is right."
"Azura! You're stupid!"
There was a familiar-sounding voice appearing along with a dazzling light. Someone from the direction of the light kept calling out to him, as it felt Azura was going to go that shadow was blocking Azura's path of going to that light.
"He's fake! You must follow me!" Tell that shadow.
Azura was speechless she was confused by this state, without waiting for an answer from Azura someone appeared from the direction of the light and forced the shadow to disappear, the figure that came out of the light looked foreign but felt familiar with his voice.
"You who?" Ask Azura.
"Someone you've helped" he said, then pulled Azura towards the light.
Azura's small smile carved on her face, now she had recognized that extremely radiant figure. In the mortal world Azura began to open her eyes that felt very heavy, Devina who felt Azura had not consciously floated her hand to slap Azura who turned out to be half conscious.
Plakkc..
Azura instantly widened her eyes feeling a hot sensation on her right cheek. The man sat down, followed by Darel who also regained consciousness.
"Aww.. What the hell are you doing? My cheeks feel swollen. How many times have you slapped me?" Azura said as she stroked her cheek and Devina simply shrugged.
"How can you move? And why are you also able to get him out of the world of mental illusions? You should be in the time loop!" Mira.
"That's because of you, I followed you. The place you came to was not in the time loop" Devina said.
At first Devina is only indifferent to the time loop, but after Nana calls her she immediately searches for Azura who she says is in danger. I don't know where Devina who used to not care about other people's problems even helped Azura. He thought maybe because Azura had helped him so he had to return the favor.
"How can you bring out someone who is immersed in a world of illusions?" Ask Darel.
In fact he had only seen for the first time that anyone could take someone out of the illusionary world. Mira is the only one she knows who can control the illusion world thanks to a unique object in her body.
"I'm from a clan of witches, our mentality from childhood is already strong. I have the gift of being able to undo all kinds of magic, but as payment for this gift I get a curse." Devina said that with a wry smile.
"Thank you" Azura said, extending her hand to Devina.
"What are you doing? Does anyone say thank you by shaking hands? You're really stupid" said Devina.
"Ah, is that it? Heheh... Sorry," Azura said with a crisp laugh and rubbed her face.
Devina looked at Azura, really her heart was currently pounding hard. Azura stood up and walked over to Darel and Mira who looked exhausted. Making a big enough time loop was not easy for Darel, although he could do this his strength remained very limited. Mira was also just as tired of opposing the illusionary world, the power drained away because of it.
"You are lucky" said Darel, standing up.
Mira who felt useless attacked Azura with her magic until several knives slid towards Azura and Devina. Azura widened her eyes looking at the several blades pointing towards her. The man pulled Devina in his arms to protect the girl from the knife. Azura's strength was depleted, he was already unable to do anything. He could only close his eyes while tightly hugging Devina.
"Sir, are you okay?" Kiki said after fending off all the swords earlier for Azura.
Azura was still unconscious, the man still hugged Devina very tightly. Devina regained her senses and pushed Azura away from her. The girl turned around and turned her back on Azura who had fallen, Devina was sure that her face was now very red and she did not want anyone to see her face at this time especially Azura. Mira takes Darel away from there after finding out that there is help coming.
"Geek, Azura!"Nana shouted with her angry face.
One hit landed on Azura's head which was sourced from Nana. Azura who was still sitting saw Nana who was a little tall from being very angry at him. Nana tugged at Azura's ears with a feeling that made her owner in pain.
"Aww.. What's my fault, Nana?" Azura.
"You're wrong! You've got a lot of mistakes!" Nana.
"Yes, I was wrong. I will buy you the most delicious fish soup as an apology" Azura said.
"Emmmmm.. Huh. okay. Because fish soup should not be refused, I will forgive you" said Nana.
Devina stood up then left just like that. Before leaving Devina threw Azura a bottle filled with medicine.
"Drink it, your soul will recover after drinking it."
"What's wrong with him? Do I have to buy fish soup?" Azura said while looking at Devina's back that was getting further away.
"You really don't know anything about women?" Said Levi standing near Nana.
