81 Return Of The Training From Hell! (1/2)
Hearing Berlin's words caused tears to flow from Alicia's eyes. She had been wondering if she had done the right thing. Now hearing these words of comfort from Berlin, saying that she was not at fault caused Alicia to finally let out her grievances. She buried her head into Berlin's stomach as she let her tears rain down.
Berlin patted Alicia's back letting her cry as much as she wanted. For him to see her cry like this showed that she was still just a little girl. Although Berlin wanted Alicia to be strong he did not want her to be someone without emotions. Emotions were a very important aspect of being alive. If she did not have these emotions she would be nothing more than a human puppet. This was something Berlin would never want Alicia to ever be.
Berlin comforted Alicia as he looked at Starla who seemed to be sweating bullets at this time. She went to drop down to one knee but was quickly stopped by Rose. ”Don't… We will explain to you what is going on in a while but right now do not say anything to Alicia on who he is.”
Rose's tone of voice was kind yet not. It held a power that said 'if you tell Alicia anything you will not see the light of day again'. So struck with the fear of finding something out that she should not have, Starla quickly nodded her head to show that she agreed.
”Mmmm… Mother's Magicules are so yummy… Nom Nom...” Frey who was sleeping peacefully in Alicia's hand voice floated out causing everyone to laugh. Even Alicia cheered up a bit as she heard Frey's voice.
Alicia petted the top of Frey's head gazing at her with a warm gentle smile. When she looked up and saw everyone staring at her, Alicia's face instantly turned red. She really wanted to find a hole to crawl into. She had actually cried her eyes out in front of everyone!
”Hmm? Starla are you okay?” Alicia noticed that Starla was sweating a lot and her face seemed to be a little pale.
”Huh? Ahh! Yes. Yes. Very good...” Starla said as she nodded her head up and down as if it was about to come off. Alicia was not convinced so she had Rose take Starla to her room to rest a bit before retiring to her own room. She had found it somewhat strange but did not dig too deep into it. Since Starla said she was fine then she would not pry anymore.
In the back garden, two men stood tall as they looked out over the man made pond. ”You released your seal?”
”Mmm… I had no choice. If I did not release the seal she would have died. They all would have died.” Blake let out a long sigh. He had never wanted to release his seal for his entire life. But the situation last night did not allow him the luxury of doing such a thing. Not when it was her life that was in danger.
”What do you plan to do now? Are you going to return?” Berlin asked. He knew that the Gods race still existed, he had known for a long time. He also knew that once the seal on their powers was released they were supposed to return to the main clan before setting off to a new land.
”No. I will stay here by her side and protect her. Until the day she is able to know everything.” Blake answered.
”This girl must be really important for you to go against the clan rules like this.” Berlin could only shake his head. He had no idea who this girl was that Blake was waiting for but he could see the determination to go against everything to be by her side. on this thought Berlina sked: ” Is it okay for Alicia to know of your true identity?”
Blake put on a rare smile as he said: ”If it's her it is no problem.”
