Act 18. Desire To Return

Lyxia did not stop dancing. She continued to dance as Giselle, then she replied to her dance teacher, "Teacher, it is true that I had ever loved that human man, his name was Mikhel. I didn't know that he already had a fiancée before. Teacher, do you think that Mikhel had ever loved me too, or am I truly Giselle herself, in this life?"

Rae was still dancing with Lyxia, after hearing the question, she said, "Lyxia. Love is not wrong. You can't blame love. That feeling is never wrong. What's wrong is that the person could not take care of your heart from the very first time. He didn't deserve you, who has an innocent heart and is as white as snow. Lyxia, dance The Swan Lake with me."

While still dancing as Giselle, Lyxia immediately replied to Rae, "No, teacher. I am Giselle, not Odette. Odette can't do the pas de deux with her prince, because Odile stole him from her. Only Odile could do pas de deux with her prince even though she actually was tricking the prince. I'm not tricking my feelings for him. That's not me."

Rae immediately realized the meaning of Lyxia's Giselle, after hearing that answer. However, Rae's legs were already tired and worn out.

She then fell, and gave in from the dance, and she said, "Lyxia, I can't do all of Giselle's dance moves. It's too hard. However, why are you still able to dance?"

Lyxia did not answer, but still danced softly, and every swing of her hand, made Rae mesmerized, even though Lyxia herself was her student while she was the teacher.

Her dance moves were so beautiful, it was as if she could feel all of Giselle's feelings as well. Rae was still sitting up because she was tired, but she could not stop staring at Lyxia who was still dancing.

The dance was almost over. Lyxia was still dancing, while saying, "Giselle and I are the same. We both have loved a wrong person, however, we are still very hopeful," then the dance finally came to an end, and Lyxia then bowed in salute to her teacher as a sign of the end of the dance.

Then, Lyxia walked up to Rae, and continued her words, "Teacher, I've tried from inside my own body, to stop Demona when she was possessing me at that time. I'm really sorry that I was in love with him, and because I was annoyed with the rule that wizards shouldn't love humans, so I was very eager, to rule this world, just for my own sake, of wanting to change that annoying rule, so that I can love that human freely without fear and worry."

"I am short-sighted. I have tried to restrain Demona who has entered my body for killing that human. I've tried so hard, but, somehow, that jealousy and desire for revenge is very, very strong!"

Lyxia then burst into tears. Her tears came out little by little, streamed down her face. Rae wanted to calm her down, but she restrained her hand from it.

Lyxia then knelt before her teacher in tears, then continued, "Teacher, it's all my fault. I'm so sorry that even mom and dad have died too, because of my stupidity. If I didn't have that deep evil intention, or that immense hatred, maybe Demona would never rise again. I am very sorry, teacher. I want to make up for all this, however, I am no longer around, teacher. I am only a spirit in this dream of yours, forgive me!"

Rae cried after hearing Lyxia's entire confession.

She then approached Lyxia, hugged her tightly, then whispered, "Lyxia, now I know, and I can understand all your feelings, fears, and heavy burdens you have faced. I'm sorry, as your teacher, I was never by your side when you needed me, as a friend to help."

Lyxia returned Rae's hug. She hugged her teacher while crying loudly, then shouted, "Teacher! I want to atone for all my faults! If there was a way for me, so that I could make amends for everything, and return the human world and the wizard world to be normal as before, without any further victims! This is all my fault, teacher!"

"Demona will definitely kill everybody and absorb her victim's energy for the dark magic she has!"

However, suddenly, Rae woke up from the dream, her eyes wide open. Very surprised, Rae immediately got up, then she sat on the edge of her bed.

"The way? What? Lyxia, I'm sorry, we can't go against fate. There's no way to resurrect you. Lyxia, I'm just a stupid wizard! I can't even save you, or think of any other way!" However, Rae suddenly remembered Yvoxy.

She immediately stood up from her bed, then she raised her right hand and focused on her magic power, then, a magic door appeared in front of her. Rae immediately opened it, then went inside, and the door disappeared after that.

Rae was now inside Yvoxy's house, however, after she looked around, the old female wizard was not everywhere. Rae then went up to the second floor of the house, then impolitely, she opened a door, and found Yvoxy was reading a book inside her bedroom.

Yvoxy was immediately shocked by the sudden opening of her bedroom door, then turned her head to the culprit, Rae.

Yvoxy immediately stood up and asked, "Rae! You startled me! What are you doing all of a sudden?"

Rae walked up to Yvoxy, stood in front of her, and immediately said, "Yvoxy! Do you have a way to resurrect Lyxia? She came into my dream and told me everything, including her evil intention to rule this world, as well as her desire to take revenge on that young human. That unfaithful bastard, and she is feeling guilty now. Yvoxy, isn't there a way to get Lyxia back to life, just to apologize?"

Yvoxy immediately tapped Rae's head with her fist after hearing Rae's strange request just now.

Yvoxy replied, "Are you a stupid wizard or what? Of course, you can't! Tell me, who is that wizard who can go against her fate? It's the same we are against nature!"

Yvoxy then was about to walk out of her room, however, Rae quickly grabbed Yvoxy's hand, then said, "Lyxia is sorry. She is very sorry. She wants to make things right, she also doesn't want to kill that human man, actually, even though she hates him for being unfaithful. She even pleaded to me, if, and if there was any way for her to come back here again… She wanted to try, to fight Demona once more!"

Rae then lowered her head. Yvoxy started to take a deep breath after hearing Rae's determination.

"Come here," Yvoxy said, then she took Rae's left hand, then walked with her to the first floor of the house, and continued walking towards the kitchen.

After they arrived at the kitchen, Yvoxy then stepped on a floor at the very end of the kitchen. After being stepped on, the floor suddenly opened downwards, and they could see the stairs leading to the basement.

Yvoxy was still holding Rae, then took the candle that was still burning, which was on the dining table that was located right next to them, then walked down through the stairs, down to the basement.

After they had arrived in the basement, Yvoxy then continued to walk holding Rae's hand, while she was holding a candle in her other hand, until finally she arrived at a dark room.
