131 The Strong Desire To Protect That Stems From Love (1/2)
King Augustus waved his hand and called over one of the people in charge of the tests and had them place an end to today's test after the time was up. Then he, Alicia, Blake, Nora, and the two young girls all moved to Alicia's space and sat down at a table that Loeri brought out for them. Loeri could tell that something serious happened so she walked over to Alicia and whispered: ”Should I let Frey come see you?”
”Yes, let her come out, it's fine. Anything related to me I do not want to hide from her.” Alicia said with a smile. Though Alicia was a bit nervous because whatever happened had something to do with her.
Loeri nodded her head and went into the house. Soon a small voice sounded out as a little fairy came flying out of the house. ”Mother!”
”Frey come here and sit. But you have to behave and not talk okay?” Alicia patted Frey's back who was currently rubbing her face back and forth on Alicia's cheek.
”Frey will be good!” Frey happily said as she found a comfortable spot on Alicia's shoulder.
Loeri returned from the house with a pot of tea she had made and a few snacks that were made by Claire. She then took a seat herself at the table. Blake looked around the table and saw everyone was ready and finally began speaking. ”Okay… First, Alicia, I want to let you know that you are not human… The first time you used your race's powers was when you were in the underground city. It was then that you had awoken those powers due to me teaching you how to deal with the undead by using holy magic. It seemed to be what helped you to waken to some of your power.”
”Wait what do you mean I am not human?” Alicia was confused, she felt no different from before. So how come she was suddenly not human?
”You are like the Gods race, well, to be precise your race is above the Gods race and did not originate from this world. You are from the Celestial race. When you first awoke to your powers, someone, who was not you, spoke to me through your body and gave me information about your race. They did not say much personally but the information they put into my mind was information on how your powers work and what to expect in the future.
”One of those powers was the ability to make Illusions real. This is why I said that I expected this to happen. It seems if you care for something enough within an illusion and had a strong desire to protect them one touch from you during these moments will send a strand of your celestial power into them making the illusion real.” Blake slowly explained. The entire time he was speaking he was watching Alicia closely, making sure she was okay.
”I-I see… So my desire to protect Nora and my desire to take care of the two girls here is what triggered them to become real… But why did the person whoever it was that took control of my body when my powers awoke, give you information about my powers?” Alicia was a bit surprised by what was being said but this also allowed her to understand a few things about herself. She was able to walk through barriers set up by ancient races and she was being called the holy one by the fairy elder. Not to mention her extreme amount of Magi Points. But what she did not understand was why the one who spoke with Blake gave him information about her.
”To answer your question I am not completely sure… It could be the fact that I have a strong desire to protect you which stems from the love that I hold towards you.” Blake's gaze turned warm when he looked at Alicia as he said his words. But as these words floated into Alicia's ears, her whole head turned bright red and she quickly averted her gaze from Blakes. She really had no idea how to reply to such a blunt confession!
