"BAMMMU! DRAP!"
"Hosh! Huh... Huh..."
The loud sound of an explosion mixed with the hum of a heartbeat in the ear.
The sound of breathing sounded loud.
The red sky and fire everywhere, became a bad sight for Aosora Arthur.
He ran and ran as if someone was chasing him. Arthur jumped over a large building. He was hiding in that dark place.
He closed his mouth because of the loud sound of his breathing. At the same time, he regulated his breathing which began to tight and he had difficulty breathing with the standing position.
"Stat! Taps!" The sound of light footsteps could be heard clearly in Arthur's ears.
Arthur's heart was beating fast. Arthur's neck was suffocated because the mana belonging to the approaching figure intimidated him.
"Aosora Arthur's. You won't be able to hide from me" the figure emerged from the driveway between the building where Arthur was hiding.
Arthur saw both of his eyes clearly when the moonlight hit the face.
The figure has a different iris of the eye. The right eye is sliced green with yellow pupils and the left eye is sliced blue with red pupils. In his right eye, the figure had a crack on his black-colored face up to his right cheek.
"GREP!"
The figure drew Arthur's blue-colored ape robe.
"You're the only one who's not aware of having created a new problem for yourself" Arthur was dragged in by the pitch-black haired man.
Arthur could not make his voice. She's mute. Arthur's eyes looked at the red sky with two months there. The moon has two colors, red and black.
Arthur was still dragged with his left hand. At that time, Arthur realized that the figure had six wings on his back.
"Who is he? If this is a dream, get up"
Arthur could not wake himself up. The figure that drags Arthur has a thick mana and is very intimidating of people Arthur has met. That guy, too, knows Arthur.
"Aosora Arthur, you came to me first. Is this the so-called Pure Dribble instinct?" The figure laughed.
At least, Arthur did not know about the man who dragged him.
"I'm just an ordinary person. And I'm not a drip. Moreover, that Pure Dribble you mentioned. I don't understand it at all" Arthur could only mumble inside.
"Yes, Aosora Arthur,... Who do you think you're gonna side with? Will you choose me and remain my friend even if you know that I'm the one threatening this country?"
Arthur was no stranger to that word. He raised his head to look at the figure. The figure grinned widely with Nao's face.
The figure narrowed his eyes. "Well, how does it feel when your friend turns out to be your enemy? Are you going to let me go or kill me when I meet you again, like you said?" He is Ruri.
Arthur involuntarily uses his ability to enter into Ruri's subconscious. Precisely, the subconscious space belonged to Ruri.
Ruri releases Arthur. However, Arthur's entire body has been filled with magic that makes Arthur unable to move his own body.
Arthur was still lying on the ground that was clumped with water.
He frowned when he saw Ruri.
"Why?"
"Huh? Why are you asking why? Do you really not know anything? Even though there are a lot of drops around you?"
Ruri was astonished by Arthur's question.
"I don't understand all of your words. Nao, I never knew my surroundings were full of drops. Didn't you want to see a lot of drops like you said in the ASJS (Magic Academy Jelata Shinrin).
"BFFT! HAHAHA!" Ruri laughed out loud.
"The droplets avoided me. They're all scared of me. Only you and Daeva dare to come to me alone. So, Aosora Arthur, are you willing to walk with me to achieve absolute peace?" Ruri extended her hand to Arthur.
"Why should I? Aren't there any drops who can help you? I don't want to deal with the drops. My mother, does not like it" said Arthur while looking at the face of Ruri who still uses the appearance of Nao.
Ruri sighed. He diverted his back.
"You don't understand what I'm saying, Arthur. I can give you your real body without waiting for much more time. I will teach you all the magic in this world and help me reach the peak of peace as your payment. The drops, only hampered his task and they were the ends of the thread that triggered the argument until now" Ruri occupied Arthur's stomach and pulled Arthur's face.
"I'm tired of all that. This world, so boring and always in an endless vicious cycle. If you agree to it, I'll take you away from Negri Arden to focus on your magic training. Because it's your destiny, as the Spark of Destruction" Ruri's nose with Arthur's nose touching each other.
Arthur is scared of Ruri for being in an unsafe position. Arthur immediately turned his face away.
"I told you, I won't be in touch with a drop. I'm just Aosora Arthur" Arthur told Ruri.
Ruri let go of Arthur's head and went back to exhaling.
"You can't avoid your destiny, Arthur. It is a gift from the Light. You are so different from your former figure" Ruri said as she stood up.
"I'll let you go this time. Until I see you later in life, don't expect you to escape me even if there are a lot of drops trying to get you" Ruri left Arthur who was still enveloped by her magic.
"THAT...WAIT UP! HOW DO I GET BACK!?" Arthur begins to panic because of being left behind by Ruri.
"Think for yourself" Ruri replied without turning to Arthur.
