32 Begining of a truth 1 (2/2)

A soft and melodious voice sounded out from the giant woman to my surprise.

”Indeed, this being whose race is unknown, hold some key to be able to exit here. Forgive my manners, young man. I was too excited and couldn't control myself.” said this giant woman whose body was moving to sit somehow. Its features were now more clear to me, truth to be told before I saw her somehow blurry. Its eyes purple mixed with black got through me, I couldn't stop myself from wonder if she was blind or something, otherwise why she would touch me?

What followed next proved my right.

”You are a quite intelligent young man, indeed I'm blind. Or more accurately my race is blinded. We are all born with this cursed eyes which don't allow us to see anything in the world beside the only thing that can kill us...”

”Wait, what? Your eyes only let you see you the only thing it will kill you?” How weird could these eyes be? An entire race with this kind of setup... Honestly, it sounded too weird.

”Yes, our entire race was born like this. That's why I had to touch you to sense what Zufan with his eyes could see about you. And I have to say that he was right and wrong at the same time, or at least for me.”

”That's odd Zamina, why would you say that?” Concern was all over Zufan face. Zamina couldn't keep her face straight and sighed.

”When I touched the kid I could see and understand what you saw but at the same time, I could see him...” Zamina did a slight pause looking smiling at me. ”You hold my life and my death, or to be more precise something inside you.”

”Zamina... are you sure? How's that even possible. Not even us can kill you. Neither time. But this kid can?” said Zufan frowning. Clearly, he didn't believe it was possible for me to kill her and to be honest neither I did how could I kill her. From my point of view, I was really weak to compare to these beings. Hell, even that Nascent Soul trashed me until I ended in that lamentable state. The thought of revenge started to fill up my mind and I got distracted out of their conversation.

It kinda feels like a lovers quarrel at some point.

”Zufan don't worry. He being able to kill me doesn't mean he would do so.”

”Alright, alright I will drop this matter for the time being. Kid if you harm her in any way you will wish you were dead... What's so funny?”

I couldn't help but chuckle there, I was already dead... Hell, I was supposed to be death itself or something like that not that I have figured it out. Surprisingly Zamina also started laughing and without me knowing I appeared sat in her shoulder.

Zufan blushed, pointing at her and complaining in a strange language.
