Chapter 209: Goodbye (2/2)
”I'm really bad at explaining it, but think of it like this. In reality, only 12 hours would pass for your body and the world around you, but in your mind, it would feel like an entire week instead. It's mostly used for long training sessions when someone is trying to focus on mental strengthening for their abilities, like in meditation. I planned for us to have a 1-week long private training session as my 1 month anniversary present for you but I guess I now have to whip something else up for it. Oh, and don't worry about its cost, just use it if you think you need it!” Jayden said in an overly positive tone with a wink, almost like doing what she was doing served as some sort of stress relief for her.
Moby's eyes grew wide, staring deeply at the mesmerizing mana crystal. It was amazing, something he had never even heard about before, he could not even begin to imagine how rare and expensive it must have been and he had no plans of asking.
”You have no idea how much this is going to help! You're actually a lifesaver in more ways than you think!” Moby spoke, still in a state of disbelief as he walked up to Jayden to thank her.
Yet, before he even got the chance, seemingly out of nowhere, she tightly grabbed him by the collar of his shirt in an aggressive manner, pulling him down to her level before she gave him a passionate kiss on the lips, both of them savouring the moment for as long as they could, almost like they were both stuck in their own fantasies, not caring for any onlooker as they only had each other on their minds before they backed off.
”No need to thank me, it's the least I could do after everything you helped me with,” She said with a giggle, her cheeks flushed red, Moby smiling back at her.
With a deep breath, Jayden closed her eyes as her body began to rip and tear before another version of herself appeared directly to her right, Moby recognizing it as her clone skill, Moby finding it completely natural since they agreed that she should keep a clone in her place just in case things went south and the school began to look for her to ensure her safety as one of the most important people in the entire school.
”Good luck, and be careful out there… We're all counting on you. Please bring Abby back to us....” Alex said, giving his farewell to Jayden who was walking straight for the windows of the dorm, making her turn around with a nod and smile of understanding, also taking another glance at Moby who was smiling back at her before he looked down on his hands that had 2 rings that she immediately recognized as belonging to her family and the exact rings she had gifted Abby, the sight of them somehow increasing her determination even more than it had already been.
All that needed to be said had already been said, there was no looking back now.
Immediately after reaching the window, she opened it wide, allowing the cold, strong night breeze to enter the room and blowback on her dark blue, silky smooth hair.
Not even looking back, she waved at everyone with her backhand, transforming into her star-like wisp form as she took flight in the darkness of the night that was lit by the full moon as she flew straight for the clearly visible light blue barrier surrounding the school at her maximum speed, no fear in her non-existent wisp eyes.
Moby and Alex stared at her intently through the window as they watched Jayden's faint light sore through the sky with incredible swiftness, their sweaty hands tightly clenched into a fist. They just had to make sure that she made it past the barrier safely, despite the watch not being visible on her wisp body, it was still on her body in actuality so if Ray did indeed fix things, then she should be able to safely exit.
When she was only a few meters away from the barrier, she instinctively closed her eyes and prayed for the best. It was all or nothing, if Ray failed then that would be her inevitable death. But, they had gotten this far and the thought of retreat did not even cross her mind, it was all or nothing and it was a chance she was more than willing to take for Abby's sake.
When she reached the barrier, ramming into it at her top speed, she luckily went right through it almost like it was not even there which took a massive weight off her shoulders and made her 2 spectators inwardly celebrate.
Taking a deep breath to calm her nerves, she focused her mind and readied her gaze, staring intently at the exact direction where the Reid mansion was located, a rush of adrenaline and emotions going through her mind, stealing her resolve to save Abby and find out what they had done to her...
