Chapter 129: Valuable Articles

Ophir squated to check the piece of papers covering the Uri forest. Novena came with them to evaluate the type of papers and language but was surprised to see that all the shredded papers were part of their temples book.

Novena commanded the Tale Bearers to scoop all of it. Ain resize the basket they held and Hexel use his shovel to lift and throw the material unto the large basket.

Nevi used his force to gather and drop on the basket. Lehi and Ophir used their comb and bones to secure and have it put on the basket.

Kiel helped Cyrus on the impending paperworks by the Palace. Natalina is still under recovery as she tend her children. Urchin choosed to stay and played with Mem. It took the Tale Bearers to uncover and gather the papers scattered on the forest.

Novena headed first unto the Palace with Ain when the trees started sway.

Ophir instantly grabbed Lehi's hand and Nevi stood with them. Hexel used his shovel to block the branches flying toward them. The atmosphere got dense and the same figure stood in front of them. He used the wind to slapped Nevi and Ophir away from Lehi.

"I can hear the same blood running unto you from that person."

The opponent announced. His kingly presence emitted a dark aura.

"It was because of his birth that our dark magic ended. If only I found him earlier then I still sat on my throne."

Lehi steadied her stance as she held her ground.

"I cannot allow you to do that!"

The man snickered as he used the wind to drive the trees wild.

"I will start with you then I will erase your roots."

Ophir and Nevi got wrapped by a tornado while Hexel got drove out of the border as he consistently defend himself. Lehi used her comb to hit the foe's side but he easily doged it. He moved unto her back and used the wind to inflict her with wounds. Lehi used her oil to nulify the enemy's wind. She used her coal heels to attack the enemy by having it land unto it's leg. When Lehi had the opportunity to conceal her presence she lay down under the dried leaves beyond the trees where they fought. She uttered a prayer as she trembled. She can't let that man lay a hand on Kish or their generation will be erased from the world.

"Lord I come to you in distress. I can feel how my courage is failing but since I have your unending support. I believe that we will move through this. Protect my comrades. Amen."

Lehi's oil became her second skin. Her comb transformed unto a rib like claw with extended handle. Her coal shoes gained some claws matching her weapon. By the time she stood up and his behind a tree. The wind suddenly split the three where she was hiding.

The opponent resumed to slice with her wind but Lehi easily strike back as the dried leaves moved with their force.

Ophir can hear his flesh shrill at the wind's spiral touch. Nevi curled his palm and raised it in the midst of the raging funnel-shaped clouds.

"Our Heavenly God who stilled the raging sea and the storm in each of us. We humbly seek your guidance and support unto this battle. Let your natures return to it's original tranquil. Amen."

Nevi got hugged by the whirling wind as it continuesly fade. When it got sucked in toward Nevi. The wind became his feather. Nevi yanked Ophir's right arm and they float above the forest to locate Hexel having his own duel. They both ignored Hexel's condition since he looked capable enough. They spotted Lehi being pushed on the edge. Nevi rocket downward to be in Lehi's spot.

The man heared his wind roaring against him only to be face to face with Nevi's palm. He received a blow in the chest.

Ophir aided Lehi who started to limp. Nevi took over the combat and landed a kick unto the man's ribs. The wind that he used against them became the very reason of his defeat. Nevi victoriously conquered the wrestle. They captured the enemy who disappeared like an illusion when he delivered it's message.

"My true self will suffice and would take out this unworthy roots."

Hexel felt like his shoulders were too worn out that he immediately dozed off. Eyel knocked at his door but was unable to wake him. Eyel decided to wrap his foods and have it delivered to his room.

Hexel heared the gentle knock unto his door and grumpily open the door. Their palace maid bowed and apologies from disturbing him. Hexel thanked Eyel's thoughtfulness.

Novena was bowled over that the first ground fill in by the very first batch of harpsichord were ransacked and ripped by the intruder. Their organisation have dealt with it but the question would be how did the enemy knew how to enter their temple that is located within the Myrrh Cinnamon itself, unless the enemy is one of them.

Novena pondered how eerie and dangerous her current flock at this era.

She took a stride at the nearest town for refreshments. She entered the secluded section where she used to drink with Celicia when she was her harpsichord.

She wanted to take the same spot they used to leisure in but it was taken by a flirty couple. She sat to the nearest stall and instantly regretted it, since the same couple are too loud and disturbing when the woman accidentally fell from the man's lap, Novena established a harsh glare unto the man. She smacked her bills on the counter and greedily swallowed her drinks. She instantly get up and move out of the place.

Kennan was surprised to see Novena on the bar and followed her with a giddy beat since he seems to enjoy the look she had in her face. He saw her disappeared from the intersection but he can't find her frame from due to the crowd. He used his gift to track her within the whole vicinity but found none.
