The Light, Dark, and Void

Back into the current day: as everything falls slowly and silent, Jaino remembers suddenly Criselia's words,

"...I'll seriously doom everything if you won't comply at your role."

He closes his eyes. He thinks, Dammit, Criselia. Can somebody please help me. Save me. I can't lose like this.

Meanwhile before Jaino and Judith have started the fight; at the balcony of Amahaon Residence, Criselia gazes at the sky, waiting for the mid afternoon sun to sunset. While going near, Maritis asks, "Is there any problem?"

"Nope." Criselia smiles. "Your Jaino is just fine."

Getting flustered and worried, Maritis replies, "Woman, I'm telling you, I don't know him. I didn't seduce him. I—"

"You had attempted to kill him, I know. You had mistaken him as a bandit, I know."

Maritis has unable to reply.

Criselia continues, "You do not have to worry. Although you're an assassin. You're doing your duty for a greater good."

What is this? I feel somehow relieved, has thought by Maritis.

"Come near to me." Hesitantly Maritis obeys, and Cresilia pats Maritis' head. "You're such an obedient person like me. You do reminded me of my previous life. By the way, do you find Jesifer doing just fine?"

"My highness," has mumbled by Maritis. "Yes, my highness is just fine. She voluntarily watches the child. And thanks to you. Yaume's mother is on the fine state after hearing the cure of her daughter. It's sad, she has bad terms with my highness. But I'm wondering. Is this really okay? I mean, you don't actually do anything."

"You won't know. Not until you witness miracle or you are me. But you need not to worry. Just pray."

Back into the current time, into the stadium of JK Academy, as the giant cylinder of gold falls to the ring stage, dust covers the surroundings. Nearby other instructors, a male instructor states, "It's impossible for Jaino to survive that gigantic thing."

"That was a kill," has said by a student, sitting alongside by other students in the watchers area.

A total dismay has felt by some people that have witness the unexpected uneven battle. Gazing at beyond the hovering dust on the stage, the missy Ritzel keeps expecting for Jaino's condition.

Krispen speaks to Doressa, "Woman, allow me to move. I need to secure my boss' safety."

Still being stubborn, the red-eyes beauty smiles.

In the darkest of his vision, Jaino hears the lovely woman's chuckles from different directions.

This person has an innocent attitude but greedy of lust.

Hey, who's there? Who are you? has asked by Jaino.

Another woman voice replies, He hears us.

Yeah, yeah.

Another woman speaks, The both of you are rude. Hello master. Finally we can able to communicate. We say, the more you think, the more we can speak inside your mind.


Forgive us on our rudeness. The void is right. We're telling you, we are your spirits. We're trying to communicate on you. And at last.

Come again? has asked by Jaino.

We are your spirits.

This is nonsense. I need to wake up, has thought by Jaino.

Nope. It's not, has said by the other woman. Light, dark, how comes this person hears us while he resists to believe.

Huh void, probably, his resolve to our previous-master's offer. That's the suitable reason I can find.

Light has a point. Light has a point.

Are you sure this isn't telepathy? has asked by Jaino. I hate pranks.

Yes, yes. This isn't telepathy.

If you're telling the truth, you don't mind if I ask. Tell me Criselia's intention?

It's you. It's you.

I'm asking you sincerely. He didn't hear any reply. Please. I want to know about her. I want to know, she wasn't pretending in disguise.

Our previous master is good at plotting. She never lies. However, she is very clever and a forceful person. You need not to worry, her intention is for the greater good.

The way you speak seems like you know me.

Yes we trio know you. From your thoughts and your feelings we know you, we share the same.

Yes, yes, you are our body but we're just your tools.

So take care of us, since we only exist to watch and be used. Follow your dream. Yes, you have. Don't be rattled and confused. We know what you could. Trust our previous master. It pains us to watch everything disappears and to only gaze to the boring nothingness. So, trust our previous master.

What are you? What the hell are you speaking? has asked by Jaino.

Other than a portion of you right now, I am a spirit of light.

Yes, yes, and I am a spirit of dark.

And me, I am a spirit of void.

As your ancestry called us, the lost souls in the past, some religions believed us as the root of everything. But none of us and our kinds is the root of everything. Everything exists, unite, and contrary. Everything bears and destroys.

As we your spirits have reached you, we can now lend you our strength. We ask no return. We are nothing if we lose a host. Our nature depends to our host. We say don't be afraid and confuse.

We are yours. We are yours.

Sad, we don't have much time. So go now, and keep moving forward. Her voice fades and the place turns silent.

I can't understand them, has thought by Jaino. They even forget to tell me how to use their strength if they are my tools. Damn I need to wake up.

Hello, hello?

And you are?

I am your spirit, a dark. I give you a hint. I give you a hint. Good luck on us.

What— kind of hint was that?

Worried as he is, Krispen thinks, Taila if you have time. Please tell me what's happening. I'm hoping you reach me with your telepathy.

Into the stage, a head of the hovering dust, Judith kneels. She looks to her trembling hands. She mumbles, "Why can't you fight me seriously Jaino." Bearing of ashamed and prostration, her loud forceful laughter transforms slowly to sadness. "So, it's all over. Dammit! Fight me Jaino! This cannot suffice my hatred! Don't die yet!"

"It seems everything is ended," has said by the Chairman. "It's impossible for him to survive in any way. We have failed."

Holding a long broomstick and attired of Janitor's uniform, the old man nearby speaks, "You disgrace our tradition of teachings. Our academy has never taught children to use abilities as tool to kill. But look what we have done. We've shown them the terror of greater power."

"Have you find a worthy representative for the upcoming tournament?" has asked by the Chairman. "Lord Maakin told me never represent someone rather than Jaino. He forcefully made me conduct this rush proving. I don't know what he was thinking. And I hope this can open his eyes. A norim with no inheritance is nothing.

"In hope that we could achieve despite of malice, I'm not the one to be blame. The owner requested this himself.

"I have shown my compliance. We had this on the meeting."

"Then you must follow your words."

"Yes. By my will, I shall retire." If the owner would allow me.

A shadow from someone diverts their attention to see a fully-cloaked person who has stood nearby, revealing her feminine voice as she speaks, "Greetings, I am a member of Main Exceptional General Division. Corresponding what happens here, you will be interrogated from stepping beyond necessary onto this current activity later on."

The guilty feeling runs cold to his body, this chairman thinks, This person stands to my realm without me aware of her presence. Logically how comes the member of the Main Exceptional General appears here.

The fully-cloaked person continues her words, "I didn't mean to offend you by trespassing inside your authority. My division is responsible to monitor the other Exceptional Generals. I remind you; if ever undesirable adversity transpires to the Third General, it won't escape to the minds of the Lightning Clan, his division; and bear it to mind, he is the prince favorite. I'm warning you."

Watching at the event of the proving at the dimensional window inside his quarter, the prince speaks, "I believe it isn't over. I know him very well. Unless he already gives up on living."

The missy Ritzel has stood off the bench, and she walks gradually expecting to see Jaino in beyond the dust. A hand holds her shoulder; and she finds Doressa with her smile. She hears the woman's words, "You have totally changed. Just remember, not everything can be interfered. Hope and believe instead." Being confused by the woman's advice, the missy is now afraid to act.

Sitting in the upper watchers' area, the male instructor, an accompany of Judith, speaks, "There's no way for Jaino to survive such a thing. Judith, you should wake up from your delusional expectation."

Judith yells, "Jaino fight me! There's no way your death can suffice my agony! I show you how painful it is! To be living alone, to be dumped, and be forgotten! Don't die yet! Don't depart without me satisfied to avenge." The listeners unable to argue anymore for they don't know their conflict.

"It should be settled to hearing instead," has commented by a female instructor to her accompany.

The gigantic cylinder of gold shutters to brownish yellow dust, expanding and disappearing, revealing Jaino, standing and unharmed by the immoderate attack. His appearance overwhelms the crowd and be dumbfounded. Feeling of relieve, Judith smiles while tears fall from her eyes. "As expected you are not just a norim. Your deceitful profile is erased, and your true self is now revealed. You can't fool us now Jaino."

How comes, has thought by the chairman, This is impossible. The fully-cloaked female closes her eyes.

And in Jaino's mind, Master, master. You should thank me. You survive.

Okay, thank you. Is that all?

No! You are much interesting than me. Obey me. Okay? okay?

Why should I?

You have grown not knowing your own self. Have your instinct not working?

His head is aching after a little bit of thinking; he just sees Judith preparing to attack.

This person is an idiot! Obey me! Obey me! Obey ME!

Alright, what should I do?

Speak her name and say, I love you, to her if she would attack.

Come again?

In crucial time one must perceive

The after storm might be a harsh

The strong one shall live at ease
