66 Chapter 14: Relief (1/2)

”So what were you two talking about?” Serena asked as i sat next to her

The sky was dark and we could see the stars

”I asked her where we were at, and where we were heading.”

”And it took you that long..?”

”We ended up talking about a lot more things, Did you know, that there were magic academies and spells were given classes and ranks?” I asked

”Of course i knew...”

”Yeah, You know a lot of things, sometimes i'm not even surprised”

”Right back at you...”

”Fair”

”Hey john...” Serena muttered as she looked at me

”Yeah?”

”Is everything really okay?” She asked with with a slightly worried expression

”Huh..? What do you mean?”

”Elves have the ability to feel emotions... I could feel sadness coming from you...” Said Serena as she looked at the path

The path was illuminated by one of our light spells so there wasn't any problem seeing anything

”Looks like you got me...”

”Wanna talk about it..?” Serena asked as she continued to stare at the path

”Haven't you been sitting her for the past few hours? Aren't you getting tired?”

”Don't change try to change the subject, and no, i'm reinforcing myself with magic.”

”If you can feel emotions does that mean you can feel a persons excitement? That means you could feel it whenever i get excited for a fight?!” I asked with shocked expression

”John!”

I looked at Serena and then stared at the path with her, There weren't any obstacles, it was just a nice quiet path at night. The only thing i could hear was the steps of the horses and Ariel talking with Eleanor at the back.

”Fine...” I muttered as i let out a sigh

Might as well tell her, there's no reason to hide it.

”When i was told i killed the mage, i felt relieved. I wasn't sad about it and didn't feel the least bit guilty. We could've tried to tie him up, but he most liekly would've gotten free and put us all in more danger... And i didn't want that...”

Even though i hated it... I still felt relieved... I took a peron's life even if i wasn't fully conscious at the time.

”I'm a horrible person... Even if he was evil... Because i'm so weak, i had to kill him, and didn't even hate it...”
