”I am you, new Mentor. I am Master Luc, and from now on, I'll be teaching you about Advance Courses. We will meet every full moon in this very spot.” he replied with his beautiful, silvery voice.

His violet tourmaline gem-like eyes sparkle proudly as his pinkish lips curve up in content. From the way he says it, she has no right to refuse or else...

**********

Concealment spells are relatively easy as she masters it with a snap of her fingers. Their lessons have ended earlier than usual as they lounge the premises. It's been a while they talked as the Mysterious Master asked how she's been doing recently.

”Nothing much, but I plan to move out very soon…” she responded.

”Where are you going?” he asked curiously.

”I'll be on a mission to Themis.” she calmly responded.

His face darkened as he can't believe she is taking on such dangerous tasks. Even her mother died because of that mission. He wanted to burst into a fit of rage and stop her, but he remained silent as he waits for her to continue.

”Oracle Clan's fate is at stake, among other things…” her gentle voice continued in a low melancholy tone.

This truly surprises him as his earlier rage dissipates and ponders on her response. There is only one explanation he could think of why this little girl is putting her life in danger. She learned something only she knows.

He thought, 'She has awakened! No, since when? It can't be…'

A distinct expression of disbelief from his eyes. His beautiful tourmaline gem-like eyes look at Eu filled with concern as he finally asked; his voice slightly trembles, ”Little one, since when have you awakened?”

She gently smiles with a tinge of forlorn in her eyes. She seldom shows people this side of her, but for some reason, she found it easy to open up to him. This mysterious master has been teaching her over the years. She finally revealed as she sighs, ”Two years ago…”

”Who else knew?”

”Only you…”

Her sudden revelation has astonished him as he continues to delve into the matter. How come no one has noticed her changes?

”What else do you know?”

”There are matters that only I could do, and I can't involve anyone else.” she calmly responded.

”How about the Divine Lord Foeni?”

She paused and curiously wondered why he is suddenly bringing the Divine Lord up to the conversation. She creases her brows. There is nothing much to reveal anyway, or rather, she cannot reveal anything at all.

”What about him?” she curiously asked.

”I don't like him.” he straightforwardly said.

Master Luc looks at her as he thought, 'You are oblivious of the ring or the contract behind it. How do you expect me to accept someone like that?! He is an Ancient who has exploited a little girl.'

Little Eu could only sigh as she wonders if she has made the best choice to disclose her secret to this mentor. He is hostile towards the Divine Lord, like her grandfather Enoch. She pursed her lips as she felt somewhat troubled.

Seeing her troubled face, he took out his mask and finally revealed his face to massage his temples. He is starting to have significant headaches because of this girl's revelations.

Meanwhile, she quickly recognized him as she has seen his face many times before. She has seen him so many times in her visions as her face brightens.

He is among those who will always support her along her chosen path as she can't help exclaimed, ”Oh, I know you! You are the one who is searching for his long lost niece... and then...”

Her visions are some times in a blur. She has foreseen and knows how things are, yet some instances are still somewhat hazy to her.

He was stupefied on her sudden outburst as he has already met the supposed 'long lost niece' she was referring to. He has met her so many times and even taught her so many things!

”I already met my niece. Thank you, little one, but you don't have to remind me. I'm truly having a major headache because of her right now…”
