Essence of Life

"Damn, I'm already getting pissed off being taken to different places every minute."

Looking around, Edward felt sad, after all, he once again didn't know where he had stopped, making him just sigh and keep going.

As he walked along, Edward's expression could not help but become perplexed.

He saw a girl going towards him, but what puzzled him was that this girl was flying on a sword, yes, a sword.

Oh, my God.

This girl really, really can fly like a goddess...

Edward couldn't help but roll his eyes because he had tried to run to the side, but the girl was still chasing him, so he couldn't help but curse for his bad luck.

Edward quickly shouted towards the girl.

"Miss, what are you doing? Why are you chasing me?"

The girl, as if she had no intention of responding, continued to chase our protagonist, but what shocked him was that her speed seemed to increase, and in a few moments she had caught him by the arm and flew even higher with him.

"Ah!"

Edward could not help shouting, he knew that if he died here, he could not return to the Sendor World for about a month, and would also lose everything including his lineage. And when he tried to leave Sendor World, he was greeted with a message that made him pale.

"You can't leave Sendor World while you're in action."

He couldn't help cursing this girl, who was taking him to who knows where.

"Miss, where are you taking me? I don't remember offending you before."

Realizing that the girl would not answer his questions, he simply decided to give up, and just go on with the course, if an opportunity presents itself, he will do anything to escape, after all, what everyone fears are the unknown and he is no exception, even if this girl is a beauty who can bring down kingdoms, he would not fall for her mainly because he remembers that the prettiest girls are usually the ones who cause most problems.

This is probably a world where the weak are prey to the strongest, so he couldn't help feeling sad, since he had entered the Sendor World a short time ago, and had already gone through bad times, even though he had obtained the Legacy of the Celestial Phoenix he didn't feel well, mainly because he had received some information after obtaining the Legacy, that the Empire of the Celestial Phoenix had several enemies, one being more powerful than the other.

As if he realized that the boy he was holding was no longer going to talk nonsense, the girl loosened her grip and left him a little looser.

Edward seeing this didn't try to make any funny, he knew that even if he tried he couldn't run away, and the chances of him dying in this process were very big.

I'm still too weak.

He couldn't help but think. So he thought of some ways to become more powerful, he knew that in this world only those with great power would be respected and could do whatever they wanted.

Boom!

Soon he felt an explosion coming after him, and when he looked back his expression immediately turned pale, there were about fifty men flying swords behind them, and they didn't seem to be next to this girl, especially after he heard what the men were saying.

"You bitch, stop running, we've already destroyed your entire sect."

"I'll have a great time with you after we get her."

"The other girls were very tasty but you'll be even more."

Hearing what the men were saying, Edward realized that the girl was running from these men, but he did not understand why she had captured him, did she want him to distract them while she ran away, because he knew he could not do that, only seeing the expression of these men he knew that the moment he spoke something, they would kill him instantly.

Seeing the girl slowing down gradually he realized that she could no longer continue at this speed because of tiredness and exhaustion, the men who were chasing them also seemed to notice and couldn't help but get excited, as they would finish this mission and could enjoy the girl's body.

Edward decided to try if his cure could at least remove some of the fatigue of this girl, after all, he risks not a snack.

Using his healing ability he could see that a little effect was emerging, even if it was small still made the girl could keep her speed constant, but it didn't seem to last long, but it could allow him to think of something in the meantime.

The girl felt that her speed was slowing down as time passed, and soon those men would be catching up, and a tear couldn't help but flow from her eyes as she knew what would happen to her body if those men caught her, but it was then that she felt a warm aura that was slowly covering her body and slowly healing her tiredness and exhaustion.

That boy she had caught while running from the men was healing her body with a healing ability, she knew that healing abilities were extremely rare, even if that boy's ability was not so powerful it was still a rare ability, mainly because there were so few people interested in those abilities, after all, people would usually choose to learn fighting and war-fighting skills.

But what she didn't know was that Edward wanted a fighting or war-fighting skill, the problem that all the initial skills he could choose were extremely weak and in the future would become useless so following his logic he chose the one that could be best both at the beginning of his journey and at the end of it.

She watched Edward for a few moments before once again increasing her speed, in the process she decided that with her dragging him into a problem she would at least try to save him.

Suddenly the girl's speed increased by about three times, leaving the pursuers behind in a few moments.

Seeing the speed of the girl they were chasing increase, the men couldn't help but curse since they knew they couldn't continue the chase after all the girl was burning her life essence so that she could escape with some ease.

"Let's just let her go, as she burned her very essence of life, she won't be able to live for long at all."

Said one of the men, after he saw he could no longer pursue the girl.

Edward seeing that he was no longer being chased could not help but take a sigh of relief. He could not help wondering if this lady who had kidnapped him would release him now that there was no more danger and also because he helped her in a difficult moment, but he knows that it will be difficult after all beautiful women bring several problems, and he knows that this is only the beginning of the problems.

After flying for a long time, the girl who was already breathing a sigh of relief landed near a tree that could only be described as huge.

"We're safe for now. I couldn't thank you before, but thank you so much for healing me at that moment."

Hearing the girl speak this way a smile formed on Edward's face, he knew that his chances of leaving would be very high, especially hearing the tone that the girl was talking to him, but it was then that he realized that she looked paler than usual.

Hello people, I am the author, and I would like to know how the story is going and if it is readable. Before they say that a girl suddenly appears and kidnaps the protagonist or things like that is cliche, further on will explain the reasons.
