Four Guardians, Hidden Passageway, And The Hidden Temple (3/6)

I doubtingly look at the Sword Summoner's smiling face. He was not bothered by the face I made as I look at him. In fact, it looks like he already knows what I'm thinking!

But really, are you a living being or not? This lady is having issues regarding such hard mental thinking you know? My head will heat up and explode once I think something deep.

The Sword Master lying in front of me notices my sudden thoughts and began to cough. Why are you reading my mind!! Aahhh!!! Stop reading this mind of mine!

"Haha… no need to sweat about it, young miss. All I did is to analyze and read your facial movements. Also, I am a living person. Wait, let me transform myself back." I was suddenly caught off guard as the Sword Summoner uses a spell that made his robes and appearance different from the usual gray color of statues.

His gray robe became a black one, with his skin tone white. The scabbard of his katanas behind his back changed colors too. From gray to a black with a crimson color at the handle. It was as if he was in some sort of an assassin sect.

Finally, his mask changes colors too. His masked were pure black with some white stripped colors on the left eye part of the mask.

"Xiare! Let's go ba— eh? The Sword Summoner Master is talking with Xiare?" As Eumi finally reaches us, she was shocked that the Sword Summoner is already at the scary giant before her.

However, what shocked her more is that I am talking to the Sword Summoner. Eh…. this guy is the one who started this whole conversation ya know? I'm just going with the flow."

The Sword Summoner, noticing Eumi, rose up from his position and said, "I am sorry miss for leaving you back there at the temple. I have sensed a powerful force earlier and thus, decided to check it out. However, prior to my senses, the powerful force flees away before I knew it. As I return back to the temple, I saw the young miss and the deva here in the forest. The miss and deva seemed to follow your orders and thus, I had decided to stay with the miss and the deva here."

I once again look at the Sword Summoner's face with doubts. This lady here can't be fooled by your mere words you know? I know why you are here.

Also, if there was really a powerful force here, the scary giant should have noticed it earlier ya know?

Your lies are filled with holes, Sword Summoner. Especially with that "me being ordered by Eumi" part. I am not a maid!

Like a kid being bribed, Eumi nods as if she completely understood the whole situation being explained by the Sword Summoner. Inside my head, I silently facepalm myself over and over again as I see Eumi nodding at the make-up story the Sword Summoner told her.

Sigh… you are far from reality, Eumi. Far from reality. This Sword Summoner is nothing but a liar. He just made-up those stories just to trick you.

Despite my thinking noticed by the Sword Summoner, the Sword Summoner just simply smiles at Eumi as he says, "This one shall follow your orders, miss…?"

"Eumi. Eumi Hyare." Eumi replied back, completely with elegance.

Tell me overpowered characters out there in the world, why do you all have your charm attribute maxed out? Can any of you tell me what's the reason? Please?

This lady really needs such attributes. However, as I am not an overpowered character, I have my charisma attribute set on average. Wuwu… I want men to also fall in love with me wuwu…

Although this lady will remain pure for her entire life though. Haha! Sucks on you!

"Miss Eumi Hyare." The Sword Summoner bows in front of her while on the deva's palm. In return, Eumi nods back and goes in front of the scary giant.

The scary giant, noticing Eumi, automatically lowers her other lower arm at the ground, making it easy for Eumi to step on its palm as it goes to another direction once again.

Sigh.. this journey is all about changing directions huh… I just want for some action you know?

(Future time)

Ahh!!! Forgive me!!! Waahhhhh!!!! I will never spout such words ever again!! Please forgive me god for wishing such things!! I never meant it in the first place wahhhh!!!!!

(Current Time)

"Achoo!" Suddenly I sneeze. Is there someone saying bad things about me perhaps?

I look around. Except for Eumi who's talking gibberish once again to the scary giant as he points out the eastern direction and the weird Sword Summoner who's simply lying on the deva's palms, there was no one else here around.

Is the one who said bad things to me is on the other side of the portal? This lady won't tolerate such words being rudely said about me.

I will smack that someone's head once I found out who he or she is. I will make either him or her eat their words. Tch, saying rude things to this lady is bad you know?

Anyways…

As Eumi finally ends her gibberish conversation with the scary giant, the giant rose up from the snowy ground and walks to the eastern direction. Eumi sits on the deva's palm as she looks at the scenery around us.

There were snow and trees everywhere. And mountains too.

That's all there is to it. Really. Mountains, trees and stuff.

Well, I'm sorry for my lack of attention to details okay? This lady is trying her best thinking such details about the appearance around us since my mental capacity is so bad that I can't even remember what I ate yesterday okay?

After looking to Eumi, I stare at the weird man lying on the deva's palms as if he was sleeping. As I continue to stare at the weird man in front of us, the weird man did not respond at all.

"Hey, are you dead already?" I silently thought. It's rude talking to dead people right?

Also, you can't speak to them since they're already dead. Very obvious.

"No, I am not dead." I heard the weird man's voice inside my head. He was using telepathy.

F*ck me! I forgot that you can read minds!

Quickly, I turn back away from the masked man and stare at the chest of the scary giant instead. That way, he can't read my mind now, right?

I am truly an intellectual.

"Ehhh…" The weird man spoke to me with a disappointed tone. Heh! Serves you right! No more mind reading today old man.

This lady is someone you can't mess with!

"And you just called me an old man. Sigh… I'm not even old you know?" The weird man once again spoke, shivering me as if I saw a ghost.

Once again, I turn my body back in front of the Sword Summoner lying on the deva's palms.

I pout at the Sword Summoner. Why! Are! You! Reading! My! Mind! Arghhh!!

"Xiare?" Eumi looks at me with worries forming upon her cute face. She was worried that I'm being very rude at the Sword Summoner.

Well, that's what am I doing now. Being rude to him. This man has the capability to read minds!

However, because I can't show that I'm being very rude in front of the Sword Summoner while Eumi is looking at me, I lied by saying, "Ahahaha… I was practicing to kiss someone in the air ahahaha…." I scratch my head as I laugh at my poor choice of words.

"Weird but okay? I guess?" Although her face was looking at me as if I am a weirdo, she still gave a thumbs up. "I support you and your future lover sister Xiare." She winks after saying those words.

Ughh… I dug my own graveyard myself. Sigh…

"Hahaha…." The Sword Summoner's laugh rings throughout my head.

Silently, I calm myself as I do not want to dig my graveyard further and further. I kept my urge of cursing the Sword Summoner as I do not want Eumi to hear me rudely cursing the Sword Summoner right in front of her.

Although I could use telepathy to curse him, he will simply block me off from communicating with me.

"Anyways… enough of that." Suddenly, the Sword Summoner changes his tone from playful to a serious tone. "It's about your elemental powers."

He was directly having a conversation with me through telepathy.

"Elemental Powers?" I asked him using telepathy. Well, I really don't have a master yet you know? I only have basic teachers teaching stuff within the sect such as cultivation world or anything.

As for my elemental powers? Nah, never heard of me having such elemental powers.

Though I do know what elemental powers are. Elemental powers are the force a certain being naturally acquires from the time of his or her birth to his or her death. That's all about it.

That's what I think… I guess? Haha… this lady didn't have much time for learning new stuff you know? I'm too busy eating sweets and dreaming about being a top cultivator.

"Indeed. Miss… wait… I never heard your name did I? How foolish of me haha.." The Sword Summoner once again laughs inside my head.

"You tell me your name first. I tell mine next." I said back to the Sword Summoner. Heh, this lady shall not be fooled of giving her name first.

"Yue Shin. My other name is called Blue Flame Tiger." Yue Shin replied back, saying his complete name and his other name.

"Xiare. As for my other name…." Crap! I forgot my other name!

"Haha.. there's no need for the other names introduction." Yue Shin said to me before continuing, "Anyways, your elemental power is quite strange." He said this with a serious tone.

"Strange? What do you mean?" I asked Yue Shin. Seriously, strange means bad news right?

Am I doomed?

"Miss Xiare, you do know that our elemental powers are condensed in the shape of a crystal right?"

"Yeah." I said back. Well, elemental power being in the shape and form of a crystal is always the topic of some teachers so yeah, I do know of it.

"And you know that if the color of the crystal is red, then that means that the elemental power of someone who's crystal is red have the properties of being a fire-wielder right?"

"Ummm… yeah.." That's common sense. Red means fire, blue means water and so on and so on.

"The color of your crystal is weird," Yue Shin stops before saying, "Your crystal consists of multiple colors such as red, blue, green, yellow, violet, pink, and so forth. It almost looks like your crystal has myriad colors on it.

"Wha—" Halfway from my speech, I suddenly realized something.

F*ck! Am I now an SSR character from some game?!!! It's the same color as those SSR crystals on a certain game!
