The boy awoke

Mary halted, confused, and observed the sphere more intently.

The cave, at the bottom of the mountains, collapsed and was blasted away by the lightning. These phenomena were witnessed by everyone in the city. Soon a man with heavy armor followed by a few soldiers came to the mountain. He saw Mary levitating in the air. Not far from her, there was a strange circle of lightning.

"What the hell is that thing?" That man muttered. The whole scene in front of them was totally unheard of or never seen before.

He said looking at Mary, "Your Majesty, What is happening here?" Seeing that she was here before them and the place was also where Blodig stayed most of the time, he asked her.

Mary shook her head, telling her that she had no idea what was going on either. While they talking, they suddenly heard a squeal or scream let out

Arrrrrrrrrr

They all looked in direction of where the sound came, it was the boy who was trembling in the sphere. The lighting was slowly dissipating and the eyes of the boy twitched. He regained his consciousness, after staying like that few hours.

Surprisingly the process stopped the moment the boy opened his eyes. The lightning before, which rumbled uncontrollably fell silent at this second. The rubble and the collapsed cave were fumed with dust.

The boy, opened his eyes, half-closed. He was feeling numb all over his body and ache from the pain. He didn't what know happened or where he was. One moment, he was walking in the street and the next moment, he was in a cave. And now he was levitating in the mid-air half-naked as he had only his tattered pants.

By the minutes passing, the pain from before was going away. He felt like being recharged. But he still felt numb as he can't feel much.

He looked at the woman, coming toward him. Then he started falling down. Until now, he was levitating in a sphere but as soon as the sphere was gone he fell, without any support.

Mary who was flying towards him narrowed her eyes. She thought he was flying downwards, escaping from her. But later she heard the boy scream after falling, then she flew up to him to catch him but he was slammed to the ground already. Making the ground crack all over the place where he fell.

Mary was quite surprised to see the impact created by the boy, who wasn't even half her height.

She walked near him to look at him.

"That hurt." That boy said rubbing his back. He was quite startled to suddenly appear in the mid-air. He didn't know how he got there.

"Wait… Where is that man?" The boy muttered thinking about the time he lost his consciousness. The last time he had sensed, he was in the cave and a huge man was standing there and staring at him.

"Do you know who was that brought you here and Where is he?" Mary outright asked the question. She was waiting for him for several hours. She was beginning to lose her patience.

"I don't know," the boy said shaking his head.

The boy stood up and patted. His face now was different from before, his skin was milk-white and his handsome little face showed his charm. He was just a kid but he was quite handsome. He had no wounds or scars on his body from before as he has undergone huge changes in and out on his body.

Mary seized him up. She parted her lips and said, " You really don't know where that man went, who you saw before." She heard him speak just when he got up.

And she felt a familiar coming from him. That was why she was suspicious of the boy.

"I really don't know." the boy said.

"I think you know what happened here. Just focus and you can remember." She suggested. She had an indifferent expression on her face.

Her voice was so soothing and yet overbearing.

The boy stepped back, gulping his saliva. Small beads of sweat formed on his forehead. He felt pressure coming from her and it was at a level he can't imagine.

He followed her instructions and tried to remember. He closed his trying to recall what happened just a few hours ago.

Then he felt like stinging in his brain, a few images of him being trapped in the cave and the huge man standing. All of those scenes flashed in his head. From the words of Blodig, the boy understood that he was a vessel for that man to use but for some, he ended up dead.

Blodig's soul was absorbed by him, and a few of the memories of Blodig's flooded into his brain. So he knew the woman who was in front of him right now.

He looked down and clenched his fists. The aura around him changed abruptly and black lightning was sparking on his both hands. The murderous intent flowed out of him and spread through the area. He was feeling helpless and very tired from all this suffering. Why was this happening to me? Everybody is hurting me? Is there really no one who cares? Those random thoughts were going through his head.

Mary was closely observing him and saw him emitting a nasty murderous intent. She was surprised that how could such a child produce so much power.

"Do you remember now?" She asked again decreasing the pressure.

The boy shuddered and stepped back. Now that he saw the memories of Blodig, he knew who she was. He looked at her and she had an indifferent expression.

"Wh.. what will you do to me?" The boy asked in a stutter.

"Did he die? No!"
