Chapter 651: Relearn 1
Kachak!
With a clear, crisp sound, Garen, who was laying on the deck chair, immediately opened his eyes. He didn't know when he'd fallen asleep on the chaise longue.
He massaged his head as he slowly got up, while pain shot through his body.
”Just now, was that real?”
Black Sethe's voice immediately appeared.
'If you wish to die you can take it as fake. Even the legendary Nine-Headed Dragon Queen Nadia has appeared and you even set a time and place to fight again in the future. Tsk tsk… I wonder how brave you are, this is not the right way to seek death.'
”If I don't make an appointment with her, would she let me go?” Garen calmly got up.
'Of course not.'
”Then there's no difference right?”
Garen stood up from the deck chair. His surroundings were silent and only the chirping of crickets could be faintly heard. The dark forest beside the swimming pool looked mysterious and quiet beside the yellow light.
A female servant was sitting near a door behind the villa as she held onto the door half asleep. Her head was almost at the top of the towel on a small round table beside her.
Garen recalled the situation that had just occurred. It was as if everything was just a dream.
He walked around the swimming pool once and didn't see any trace of destruction. It was completely normal.
Suddenly, his eyes focused on a white chair on the right side of the swimming pool. He squatted down and slowly picked up a small item underneath it.
It was a coin and seemed to be made out of some sort of a metal. It had three circles connecting each other in series imprinted on it.
He flipped over the coin and saw an image of a ferocious dragon head on it.
He immediately recalled back the coin in Nadia's hand before she left.
'This is a coin left behind by her, which will act as a marking and token. With this here, you'll never be disturbed by any normal void creatures until she finds you again.' Black Sethe explained.
Garen gently held the coin tightly. He felt that he had seen this sort of material from somewhere before.
Suddenly, he recalled his memory where he obtained a relic from a black-shirted man and one of the relics was a mask made of a similar material. However, that mask was light black whereas the coin was yellow copper. He wasn't sure why but he felt that these two were connected to each other.
”What is this? What is it made of?” Garen asked softly.
'No idea. Perhaps it's something Nadia created after joining the Void Creatures. Ever since she became a traitor, she would hand out this coin before she officially kills her target out of respect. Why do you ask? Who cares what this is made out of?” Black Sethe couldn't comprehend his thoughts.
”Nothing.” Garen didn't say much further.
It looked like he had to start searching for relics from all over the world… He wasn't sure when would Nadia's next visitation would be, but it shouldn't be late.
He kept recalling that mask. His instinct kept telling him that he could obtain an unexpected result if he were to investigate that mask.
**************
In the universe of the void dream, in the endless darkness, two figures swiftly appeared like comets flying across the darkness and breaking apart as both of them were shining brightly.
This was the black dream zone where no one had ever set foot in before. It was the realm between the void and reality, where all consciousness and dreams were created. It wasn't a place in the Material World yet it could affect the Material World.
Two white comets trailed long white tails as they brought light to the darkness.
Within the white lights were two thin and tall people, both male and female. The man's eyebrows and hair were red similar to of fresh blood. He had his hair combed up and was wearing a white cloak with a black circular thorn imprinted on it.
The girl had waist-length blue hair which was smooth as satin. Her facial features were very beautiful but her gaze was dead. Upon closer inspection, she didn't seem to have pupils at all. Instead, what she had were two blue crystal beads. She was in a light blue soft armor with a rippled white metal texture on the side. Overall, she looked beautiful as the soft armor streamlined her body contours as if she was wearing a skintight blue dress.
”This is Nadia's black dream zone. She must be nearby.” The man whispered as he used the Ancient Endor's language. ”Elfie, do you see any movement?”
The blue haired lady seemed to be trying to listen for something. After a while, she frowned.
”She seemed to have fought with someone… The opponent is definitely not your typical opponent. Both of them were separated when the dream shattered and Nadia left afterward. Her current whereabouts are unknown.”
”Who could fight against her?” The man frowned. ”Even the white dolls are hard to handle.”
”I don't know. Ever since we gave up our flesh and entered the dream world, my eyesight has become poorer over time. I've validated it myself that I'm fine if I were to search for other stuff, but it's different when it comes to Nadia. I suspect that she may have found a way to deal with my ability.”
