telling the truth

The butterfly like creature had a happy look on its face because his master hasn't decided to abandon the space at least not yet

"Yes you can, be it dead or alive the only thing is that if you haven't made a contract to that creature it won't listen to you and run wild it might even eat you and anything it sees in its path"

"Alright that's good to know I want you to take me out and when I give you a signal I need you to bait a small size monster that's only as big as a small house besides that's the average monster here anyway"

"Alright I'll do just that" the butterfly-like creature didn't ask much questions and sent Asahel out

As soon as she got out she was directly under the tree they were standing before, after looking around she saw a path and walked towards it but she had some thought running in her mind.

As of now she was extremely hungry and stealing food could very well be an extra misfortune if she was caught, so she planned to use the monster to cause a small distraction while she steals some food then the butterfly-like creature would reopen the space again and send the monster back in before it could cause too much damage

but while walking she came across four men who were drinking and playing games leisurely, it was already night time and many shops had closed except for night-life district but these men were having fun in one of their shops while the rest had closed for the day and they were barely anyone passing by

Of course Asahel thought to pass these men by, because she was weak and didn't have the strength to run away if she was harrassed but on getting closer a sharp pain struck her head and flalshes of memories that weren't hers came into view.

These men were the ones who killed the original owner of this body and she was under the care of one of them.

She picked pocket for the one who owned the shop and he barely gave her enough so earlier today she was hungry she took a piece of left over bread from one of his friends plates while they were talking and when they saw her eating it they became angry mostly because they were already in a bad mood

the one who had the bread and the one she worked for beat her mercilessly while the other two just overlooked and continued what they were doing

She was already weak from hunger and had a high fever to begin with so the beating ended up taking her life, more like her soul was sucked out at a certain moment Asahel's soul left her body (but that's for another day)

Asahel felt pain in her chest after this memory ended then an idea popped up in her head and she walked to there direction

"Hey Ji isn't that your petty thief I can't believe she's coming back to you after all that beating"

The one called Ji turned and saw the weak looking girl walking up to them he spit out and spoke

"Well it's not like she has anyone to care for her she should be grateful I offered her an easy job but instead she decided to steal from me, when she reaches here with nothing I'll beat her again maybe this time she won't wake up"

"Hahahah"

Asahel walked up to them but didn't say anything yet this was because she didn't know what the previous girl addressed them as

"Hey mute what did you bring this time if you came empty better prepare for a beating"

it turns the girl barely spoke or never spoke so she was usually called a mute

Asahel looked at them but decided to conceal the hatred in her eyes

"I indeed brought something back but it's heavy to carry and it's alot, I hide it at the open path down the road where that single big tree stands"

When the four men heard this their eyes lit up, of course they didn't think it was a lie this was because there were sometimes she came back with good stuff and she was told to hide it till night time but they also forgot that even when she spoke her words were inaccurate since she was an illiterate

so the four foolish men followed behind her and kept talking and laughing

While they laughed the butterfly-like creature spoke in the mind of Asahel

"Master when are you calling me over I've been chased none stop at this point I'm going to die" it cried helplessly in her mind

"Just hold on a little more I'll let you know be the way, I wanna know how are you gonna bring it out"

While the butterfly-like creature was flying around to prevent being caught it answered it's master's questions

"Actually you're the one whose gonna bring the monster out but since you haven't learnt how I can manage to help you, when you're ready close your eyes and have a clear mind then let me connect to you once I do you'll know then stretch your hands out into the air and a portal will open directly in front of the monster and it will walk through as though it was called out.....it can sense the space aura on you so it will come out to you but it's risky because you haven't...."

"I know I haven't made a contract you said it before, alright then how about to make a barrier after letting it outside and preventing it from running havoc"

"This part is a little bit tricky master but I'll tell you anyway, since you haven't done it before, start by making a mark on the place you want the barrier to start from and another mark were the barrier should end then have a deep focus and try making it look as though those two places you marked are inside your space"

When Asahel received this information she quickly bent down and marked that area and since it was muddy due to the rain the mark was very visible

"Hey what are you doing ?"

"Nothing I just thought of marking that spot just incase things goes wrong"

In truth since she was born Asahel had a very hard time in telling lies this was why most of the children dared not play with her and also why the head Madame could still treat her well even though she was unfortunate.

Whenever she was asked something she would answer it just as she had done but people who didn't know her would not even know she was telling the truth.
