Chapter 3 - Viviana de feur Lostel - No Definite Answer (2/2)

'ahh?' my lips twitched. ”t-then, how do I know it's them?”

”Well…you'll know it's them since your soul would be sėnsɨtɨvė around them.hmmm… How should I describe it?” Lucy had this thinking hard look but the expression suddenly turned mischievous as Ferr answered. ”It's like being watched, nȧkėd.”

'ahhhh?' my lips twitched twice. 'is this devil joking or what?'

Lucy wore a worried look as her right arm was placed on her cheek. ”Oh my, we haven't given it to you yet?”

I was getting more confused. ”Give what?”

”That.” Lucy and Ferr's voice vibrated as a necklace materialised around my neck. There are two pendants, and both are glass gourd.

”The necklace would be what you use to catch both.” – Ferr

”but how?”

”Try to pull out the gourds from the necklace.” Lucy instructed and I complied. The two glass gourd that was only 1 centimeter became lifesize, I got frozen solid shock.

Lucy continued. ”The bluish gourd is for the lost soul while the reddish one is for the system. These gourds have the power to suck both the souls and systems, separating and filtering them from each other and trapping them inside the bottle.”

”How do I do it? Do I just point it at them and they will be suċkėd? Is that it?”

”No, it's not that simple. You cannot just point it at them. Host and system alike are powerful; you need to be careful when facing them.” – Lucy

I shivered. ”s-so… to find the soul and system, I have to search them on my own and I'll find them using my sixth sense? To catch them I need to use this but there's a chance that I'll fight and be in a dangerous situation?”

Both of them nodded. I felt cold sweats dripping on my back. ”But how can I even search for them?!”

”ahh? Isn't there already a clue?” Ferr has this are you dumb look.

”Clue?”

”well yeah. The story transmited to you. That's your clue, you dumb or what?”

”….” 'is this devil trying to start a fight with me?'

”yep. You're dumb.”

”Ferr!” Lucy reprimanded as I started to get mad at Ferr.

”Tsk.”

She paused. ”Since you know the original story then you would know if there are changes…. With that, you can have more clues until you find them… the ones who have been derailed and are distorting the original story are our targets.”
