The Main Course Of The Battle
[UNREVISION] PART 7: LOST CHILD

“Nee - same... let's play again like we used to!”

--------

“Hei, Seeji.”

“What?”

“I don't remember yesterday's incident.”.

“Can't remember?”

“Yah... I thought I was dreaming.. and I saw a blue light...”.

“Hm.”

“Ahh. I don't remember…. Am I sick?”

“You just recovered didn't you?”

“I...yesterday it hurt?”

“Already, come.”

They then left the inn.

‘So...he doesn't remember..’ in inner Seeji.

---------

The Obsids industrial area. The place is quiet from the residents in the afternoon because only a large factory factory stands working from morning to noon.

"This is the first time I've passed through the gates of the Obsids area..."

"We're just going to get through it. The Aven Mountains are out there. We're close.”

“Hm...really?”

"I began to miss the waterbloom flowers that adorned the courtyard in front of my room. It was Reeji who stoned him back then."

"What's? The flower is very rare"

"Somehow he has it. But we take care of him so that everything develops..."

Seeji smiled as he reminisced. It was soothing for Takai to see the smile of an indifferent girl like her.

"Come on! I can't wait!"

Seeji then walked forward. Just as Takai was about to follow him someone pulled his shirt.

“Ano... sorry to interrupt..”.

“Hm?”

A short-haired girl stopped Takai. The boy's height didn't reach his elbow.

“What... uncle has a compass?”

‘Uncle?!’ Taki was offended by the old call.

“There... No?”

“Listen yes... little boy... I don't have a compass, but I can show you the direction... how?”.

“Ah! Thank you! Pa...”

“And please don't call me uncle.” Takai prevented her from calling him uncle with a 'very' friendly smile.

“Te-thank you! So. Which direction?”

“B..west... West side of the island... west yes... west direction.... there!”.

Takai pointed with his hands full of confidence.

“It... isn't it south.?”

“Eh?”

“West move there."

Seeji pointed in the right direction. Takai immediately grinned while scratching his head that did not itch.

“You should not be behind me. Apparently you're here.”

Seeji folded his hands looking at Takai. The little boy who asked the direction earlier approached Seeji.

“Thank you! Onee - same!”

"Nee - same...?"

‘Glek! The boy called Seeji sister while he called me uncle?!’

"What's a kid like you doing here...?"

"I.. I'm looking for a place to go home...."

"What...?"

"After all that is burning, I have to find a new place to live..."

"Burning?!"

"Of course the Aven Mountains..who knows...?"

"What?!"

"Everything there was scorched when the house exploded. What's left there....?"

“Cannot..”.

Seeji remembered his dream when he saw Reeji disappear with the jewel shards of that time. He ran and tried to make sure.

“Seeji! Waitaminute! Eh?” Takai looked at the child leaving, his gaze looked strange and his mouth grinned.

DRAP

The distance is still far, but Seeji ran as fast as he could. His movement stopped when he saw black ash scattered near the small hills.

"Truely burning.... "

Seeji then glanced at the hoseki hill close to his house.

“Hhah...bukit hoseki is fine... Reeji.!”

Seeji used his teleporting ability, he was choked when he reached his front house. What the boy said was true, his house was no longer shaped. The building's debris scattered and became ash-colored due to the burning marks of wood, which was once the floor of Seeji's room.

“How can...This place...”.

Waterbloom flowers, which used to decorate the room is now only ashes. The basement that used to be where Seeji trained, no longer stood firm. Books are a mess and some things are burning.

“If I directly teleport in this place.. means there is a little bit of my power here, but I do not keep it in my room..... except...kalung Reeji!”.

Seeji realizes he was teleported in that place because of his hose stored in Reeji's necklace.

“Reeji!!”

'Why is the necklace in my room? His house is a few meters from my room.do not - do not....!'

Seeji tries to find the existence of Hoseki Seeji which is slightly stored in his sister's necklace.

’If I find the necklace, I can find Reeji... Ayeji!!!'

GREKS

Seeji removed the debris of a nearby building and searched for the location of his blue hoseki tucked away in Reeji's necklace.

“Here..! Reeji!”

SRIINGO!

Seeji threw down the ruins with his hose, his hand then went into the rubble and pulled something pinched.

CRREKS

"It...!!"

A white gem with wooden ornaments on its side. When viewed from the other side, the color of the gem can turn black. It's the opposite of Seeji's gem.

"His necklace...."

Her necklace was attracted, and Seeji saw the end of the rope was blood red. His eyes are cracked too.

“No...”

THE SETS!!

Suddenly Reeji's memory is channeled through the blue hoseki on the necklace as Seeji touches the jewel in his necklace.

"You can't hurt him....! He is my brother...! He is so great...! Not only because of the jewel, but he was truly great!! I won't let you....."

'Ree....'

"You can't have this necklace...Or apapu..kh..."

WHOOP!!

'He threw and smashed this necklace. 'cause somebody was after my blue hoseki....'

DEGGS!

'I believe. onee the same... will save me...'

“!!”

Seeji was certainly wide-eyed in disbelief, Reeji's memory disappearing after he was suffocated by something. Seen saw it clearly.

“No..”

He even saw that the picture he had made with Reeji was broken, and there were blood spots there.

DEGGS

‘No more...?’

SYUUTS

A knife leads to Seeji.

“Se...ji...wait....!!”

Takai has just come and he is shocked to see Seeji's house being destroyed like in his dream.

“No…. Seeji! Where's you!”

Takai looks for her, and he sees Seeji just finished fighting with the owner of a dimensionless black gem.

“Seeji!”

Takai.

“H.. You're the one I saw on Hoseki hill just now, you're still trying to find the treasure you're looking for?”

"What do you want huh? I'm just looking for that treasure for my life!!"

He dropped Seeji from the rubble.

"Thus, my life will be happy forever!!"

"Happy..you say happy...?"

Seeji got up and stood staring at the Black Petals. A look full of anger.

"You seek treasure over the death of others?! HOW ARE YOU GOING TO BE HAPPY WITH THAT HUH?!?!"

Seeji directly attacked him and destroyed the pile of ruins. He teleported in front of her face and stabbed her with both knives.

"You're too weak to fight me...! Black petals that can only kick and be scared...!"

"Why? I can't scare her...?"

"You.... Your ability scares others...? It's a pity that I'm not afraid of anything right now!! Go coward!!!!"

Seeji kicked him to the ground many times in the rubble.

"Look! Stop that!!"

"You don't even deserve to look at me in such fear...! Intending to find a hoseki with such little guts? Don't make me laugh!!"

His gaze was really cruel, Seeji then changed his weapon with a rifle and then prepared to shoot him.

"Look! You have to seal it! Not killing!"

His hand that was about to pull the trigger stopped, then he turned the bullet into a seal bullet.

DHOOR!!

The sealing was done quickly, the wounds the man had sustained recovered quickly as the white hoseki appeared.

“Seeji? You didn't make the dimension? What if someone sees..”.

Seeji's eyes were different, which made Takai very surprised.

“Seeji?! is that you?”

“Who dares to mess up....."

"What's? Seeji?

"One more...”.

Seeji pointed his gun at Takai. With his gaze that was nowhere.

“Seeji! It´s me! Takai!!”

“Takai, where have you been..”

Takai began to feel that this was the meaning of his dream at that time.

“You're good - okay?”

“Quickly, we will look again for other owners of black gems.”

“You're really okay? How about Reej..”.

“If you don't want to, go!”

“Slave, I won't go! Listen to me!” Takai pulls Seeji's hand.

“Whispering!”

BRAAK!

Seeji dropped Takai to smash the debris behind him. Seeji then left her.

“Ukh... he throws me that easily....? What am I supposed to do? eh.?” Takai finds Seeji's necklace and picks it up.

'Does.... her sister has....? And his house too...

I know. none of this is easy to pass...'

Takai then followed Seeji from behind. Seeji walked towards the empty forest next to the Aven mountain range. He glanced at the building that was as destroyed as his house.

"It's no use...."

Seeji gawked away. Simultaneously after he finished off the black petals there.

"Why... Seeji became very cruel...?

Takai was in disbelief, Seeji finished off his enemy quickly, he became quite different.

"I... How's this..."

Days - days passed Seeji. Still nothing changed, quickly, the hiding of black petals in the empty forest was destroyed. Indiscriminately shot all his opponents and slashed at the attack with a knife and teleported him.

Takai was unable to do anything other than pay attention to it from afar. As he tries to stop her, Takai is attacked by Seeji. He just hopes Seeji doesn't kill anyone.

“Seeji..”.

Seeji never again showed his kneeling demeanor before taking out the owner of the black gem. Attacked him with a knife until he was helpless, then shot him many times until the last time he shot a seal bullet.

“Heh, nice view...”.

"Kuroseki!!"

Takai took out his staff and directly attacked Kuroseki. But he misses, Kuroseki can always dodge his attacks.

"You remember me..."

"Remember...? What...?!"

“Feelings are the most appropriate thing to target... ”

Then he disappeared like smoke. Takai began to understand the meaning of the cloaked man.

"Where... have I seen him...?"

SRIING

Seeji finished sealing someone, I don't know how. Seeji's gaze was still the same. Takai saw it from far away.

‘His eyes...the light in his eyes almost disappeared...

What does it mean as Kuroseki said? Do I have to stop it?‘

Seeji...'

“Hhuh! Stupid thought of a selfish person like him!” Takai turned away from him and headed towards the Crystal City.

Takai's footsteps walked rather quickly. He walks while daydreaming.

‘Takai - san..’.

“!!”

‘You can't leave now, my brother needs you!’

“Kakak.. ?”

SYUUT!

A cold wind passed through his face quickly.

“What was that..?”

Takai was silent for a moment.

“What I... I can't leave it..”.

He walked back to the previous direction.

“What is this...? Wait a minute...where do I go..” Takai batin himself

Without Takai noticing his feet tripped by the tree roots and fell down. Seeji's necklace fell on the ground.

"Aakh!”

BRUUK

“Why did I fall...”

Takai took Seeji's necklace out of his hand. He looked at the necklace.

“What the heck...he's just troubling me..”.

'You stupid! Takai!'

Seeji's mockery remembered in his head.

Takai closed his eyes. Then he leaned against the tree.

'I found it in the woods, right...?'

He recalled meeting the injured Seeji in the forest back then. Unconsciously she fell asleep.

‘Takai san..’

‘Again you....who are you?! Show yourself!’

‘Reeji, I'm Seeji Nee's sister - same.’

‘Reeji?’

Takai. A 10-year-old boy was smiling and worried.

‘Will...his sister was..? But why...?'

‘Onee same... she can not get through everything alone.. she never had friends... always alone..’.

‘.....’

‘Currently he is near the western border of Crystal City, quickly follow him!!’

‘You...’.

'Take – san, you're a good person, I've lost everything but I don't want my brother to lose him...'

Reeji cried, Takai looked at him pity.

"Please... please protect my brother.” His voice is getting clearer. Making Takai wake up.

'Why.... should I hesitate...? Seeji is my friend!'

Takai immediately headed towards the western border of Crystal City.

‘I think I should try to stop Seeji before he hurts anyone else...'

He then reached the western border of the Crystal city, connecting the Crystal city with the empty forest and the Ameytyst Castle region.

“Seeji!! Wait a minute.”

Takai was finally behind Seeji.

“You what are you.?”

His gaze is still the same. Takai just swallowed his doubts and continued the words - he said.

“this isn't you, can you stop and be you again?”

“What do you mean, I in front of you know.”

“But you shouldn't force yourself like that, right? You almost thought I was your enemy!”

“Then?”

“Stop Seeji, you are not a fighter who tortures your enemies, but you help them.”

“Help? Heh... I didn't hear wrong, did I? Someone who possesses this terrifying power is called a helper? I never even wanted to have this power.”.

A smile of despair flashed on his face.

“Seeji!”

DHOOORS!!

Seeji fired his gun up. Making Takai a bit of a distance.

“Then can I still be called a helper if I kill you here?”

DEEGGS!
