Chapter 166 - Hidden Strength (2/2)

Lyn placed a hand on the man's neck, ” Its weak but there. Teki prepare Elder's room for him,” Teki was one of Shaarya's guards who also came along, ”Pupillam, grab by bag from the main lounge...” she trails off, ”No, actually for this. Just grab box 1&6, 8 &13, samples. 6, 42, 15....”

A series of numbers escaped her lips and seemed to cause people in the room to whisper. But Lyn didn't have time to explain anything, she turned to the others, ” Please do not be alarmed by this. Resume the rest of the banquet.”

”But princess....”

...

After safely ensuring that nobody else followed them, Lyn quickly got to work. They found a spare room, secluded from all the others. She tied up her hair in a bun, to prevent it from getting in the way. Various bottles surrounded her. But after a grueling one and a half hour had passed, Lyn realized that nothing was working.

”It's no good like this. Even if I do this, it will only prolong his life by a few minutes,” Lyn murmured. Is she doing something wrong? No, Lyn shook her head. Mentor is a good teacher, and she already applied such things to practice on the battlefield before.

”Then let's get an expert,” but Lyn disrupted her aide's words as she reached over with her hand.

Lym frowned, ” What did he tell you about it?”

”Indeed he did and I really wouldn't it if I were you. Its true that place and here aren't too far away from each other. But the distance you two have right now is too far away. I wouldn't try it; there's too much of a risk.”

Lyn shook her head, ” I can't do that Pupillam. If I have the power to save someone, then I'll do just that,” Lyn grinned, ” Besides you don't have to worry. That person is always with me; that's why this will end up successfully.”

A bright glow appears in the girl's hands. A light of pure white. Allen frowned, ”Your not..”

Lyn shook her head, ”Don't worry; this is different,” even Lyn understood that using her healing magic in this place would cause a huge disturbance.

.....

It took quite some time, but it seemed to have worked since the EElder stirred. She asked Allen to call for regular medics then and left the room. A deep sigh passed her lips as she collapsed to the ground. That was exhausting; she's no medic expert. But she can treat wounds according to the magic her mentor taught her.

Staying strong and courageous no matter what the situation, huh?

But there's one word that she never says before a fight, because there really isn't a need for her to say it. There's no need for her to admit it. Lyn managed to slip away from Pupillam and the guards on duty. The second she saw the disturbance earlier she sent Kyouya there. However, it won't do her any good for her to wait around and do nothing after all its clearly obvious who their targets are. No, there's no use saying targets. There's only one person there aiming for.

Slashing elder Ono was a mistake; the person they were aiming for was not herself. But her fiancé, after all during that distance elder Ono was closest to Allen. My my, if that's how it's going to be then she can't stay out of it, can she? Allen, the longest of time. For the longest time ' I have wanted to see you.' The person she's always wanted to see again. After all, parting on such an awkward note wasn't something she was fond of, and perhaps her business was never finished.

It's dark, pitch black. She's always been afraid of two things only — the dark and lightning. Usually, her eyes can't adjust to the dark, but she could see it clearly. The brightness in the moon. Even if it's dark out, there's always a light form elsewhere.

The being afraid factor aside, she really did hate it. The darkness. It reminded her of so many things — obsession, grief, nostalgia, sadness.

The colours that are surrounding the darkness. It's merely black. Grey and white. The world she always lives in. That's why she disliked it a great deal.

Now that she thought about it, that person said something about it before.

'No matter where you are, people find a way to entertain themselves.'

Lyn always thought that he was merely amusing himself with that thought. Since whenever she went anywhere, there was never anything interesting. It was always dull for her and boring, so this is what that guy meant and her lips curved into a devilish smile.
