87 Catching Up (1/2)

Markus laughed, shaking his head. He went on to tell Vy his side of the story, of how things escalated and he got stabbed.

”I'm not sure what happened after I was stabbed since I blacked out. When I came to, I was already here.” Markus looked towards the door and let out a sigh.

He shifted his focus to Vy, and asked, ”How is Elette doing?”

Vy gave him a soft smile, ”She's doing fine. We calmed her down with some honey cakes earlier. Is there any way we can contact and find her mother?”

Markus frowned and avoided her gaze for a moment, ”While I would like to believe Eletts just happened to get separated from Coral, the chances of that is slim.”

”You mean she abandoned…”

”There's a high possibility. Special abilities such as Mirror Sight are not something folk like them see as something good. It's more of a curse than a blessing.” Markus said.

Being abandoned by her own mother. How could anyone be so heartless? Vy could not understand. She wanted to help Elette, no matter what it took.

”Regardless, we shall try to find her and convince her otherwise. After all, Miss Coco mentioned that her Mirror Sight is being blocked.”

”Blocked?”

”Yes…”

Before Vy could finish her sentence, Lycster ran into the room, with Elette in his arms.

”Vy! Elette…” the poor boy had to catch his breath, he had run up the stairs.

”What is it?” Vy asked anxiously.

Elette did not look like she was in any harm or pain, just a little dazed by what was going on.

”Elette's Mirror Sight. It was Dygo who blocked it!” Lycster finally said.

Putting the pieces together, Vy finally understood what had happened.

-Looks like he's a good one after all.-

”Well, if it isn't our new mayor! Or should I address you as milady?” Old Potto called out as Vy walked by.
