[ EIGHT ] Alone, Gregor

I screamed once again, but who wouldn't?

The old man kept on cuttin off what was left of my legs.

I knew that it was nessessary, but it still hurted.

"Au, I have a question to you little guy" Yulia asked to me ignoring my screans "Did this stroke od the saw hurt more or less than that neddle of Ciana?"

That took me byh surprise, she was observing everything.

Thinking of it now, it's realy like what she said, the pain was the exact same.

Even though the proportions of the 'attacks' were completely different the pain was the same.

"You look worried, no..." the old man stoped and looked in my face "you are surprised by something, is my thecnique this impressive?"

He said that ironicly, but I could not bring myself to laght

"The pain is the same no matter what happens" I tried to make it sound normal "Ciana putted a neddle in my arm, but the pain from that and this is the same"

He looked interested, got up in his feet and started to think about something.

The old man was realy immersed in his thinking.

"AuTor, do you undertand how mana works?"

I didn't responded, it took me a moment to remember that my logic wasn't more 'there'.

"So you don't" He said smiling "you use mana to move, probably even to exist. Seeing as how you woke up only after receiving it"

"So?"

"You are able to fell that things are touching you because the mana is exiting you, but when you are hurt the flux of mana is disrupted and you fell pain" The man was going in circles, like remenbering something of a book "It's something that magicians experience when magic formulas go wrong and they described that no matter the size of the spell, even if the consequences were to be gigantic, the pain was the same as a 'spark' spell ..." He kept on talking, at some point his words became just murmur.

I wanted to ask him to continue, but he looked like someone close to screan 'EUREKA' and throw papers in the sky.

The old man... it's was good to be able to see that even that scary grampa was able to look so happy and relaxed.

Peaple have many sides, but for some reason was hard to accept all of then...

"Yulia" I called for in my head.

"What's up Au?"

"How did you know about him being stronger than me?" I asked curious "Or am I just that weak?"

"Yes, you are weak. But don't worry, I will try to help you even if I look just like a ghost right now"

"Thanks, but that didn't respond me, how did you know he was stronger?"

Yulia paused, I knew her better than anyone, possible more than herself.

A crazed woman that could make a insane man look like a king and a king like a pig.

"Ok... I think that I got it:

The information just popped in my mind like before, but now, Yulia that forced the information in.

I could tell easily that the thing in front of me was complete, but it just made me more confuse.

How could Yulia do that short of thing.

Why did she not tell me before and only show when hiding it would be tiring.

Yulia was planning something, but I could do nothing as she took a step closer to her objective.

"He is... he is strong" I thought trying to disfarse my other thoughts.

"Also not human, but ciana was one" Yulia responded quikly.

I stayed silent, it was just too much for me in that moment.

So much in fact, that just now I remenbered that I had a saw stuck in my leg!
