Chapter 16: The Sacred Temple
"Woah. This temple looks so cool."
Kuragami and Keikena are in front of the temple. Kuragami is amazed at how good the temple looks. There's pillars made out of gold around it and the temple itself is made out of a blue brick.
On the left and right side of the entrance stands two hooded guards holding spears.
"Who are they?"
"They're just guards. They don't let anyone that's not trusted inside the temple. The temple is called Mezame Temple. They're called Mezame guards. We will be seeing a lot of them inside including the Mezame Angel."
"There's a Angel inside the temple? So cool."
"Yeah. She will help us awaken the power deep within you. But first we have to do preparations."
"Preparations?"
"You'll see."
They both walk to the entrance. The guards block their path with the spears that they're holding.
"What is the name of the one that wants his chains removed."
Kuragami starts to get nervous.
"Um. Kuragami Nozomi sir. I mean, sirs."
"No need to be nervous Kuragami. They won't do anything."
"The Mezame Angel has decided to let you in. You may enter."
Kuragami and Keikena enter the Mezame Temple. As they step in, Kuragami realised that the inside of the temple, looks like they're outside.
The path their on is surrounded by two waterfalls, one on the left and one on the right. There's flowers, butterflies and all sorts of beautiful nature around them.
Kuragami is enlightened at what he's seeing right now. Keikena isn't that amazed. Probably because he's been here before.
"Hey Kuragami, look up."
Kuragami looks up and is shocked at what he's seeing right now.
"No way. Keikena! There's clouds, a sun, the sky!"
"Yeah. We're in a space created by the Mezame Angel."
"She created all of this?"
"Yeah. This is her world. She controls what happens here. She has the power of a God in this temple."
"I wouldn't want to get her mad. Who knows what she will do."
"Yeah. Anyways we're nearly there."
Kuragami looks forward.
"What the hell."
"What?"
"What do you mean we're nearly there? This path is infinite!"
"Just keep walking."
"For how long?"
"I don't know."
"Keikena! I don't have time to be walking on a endless path! Where is this Angel?"
Keikena suddenly stops walking leaving Kuragami to carry on ahead of him. Kuragami looks back while walking.
"Why did you suddenly sto-"
Kuragami bangs into a invisible wall and falls on the floor. He starts rubbing his head.
"What the hell!"
A invisible door opens in front of them. Inside it, there's a path to a throne with a bunch of guards holding spears surrounding the path.
"We're here Kuragami."
"What the hell is this?"
Kuragami stands up and walks in with Keikena There's someone on the throne.
"Is that the Mezame Angel?"
"Yeah."
They make it to the throne. There's a Lady wearing all white with white glistening wings.
"Sup Angel."
"Human, how dare you address me in such casual ways?
"My bad."
"So what brings you here? It seems that you came with a child?"
"I need you to help free his potential. After that, we need your help. He wants to learn ice coating."
"Do you know what your asking me? The training to learn Ice Coating at such a young age is almost certain death. But I will help unlock his potential as he is the relative of Yuma Nozomi."
"You know my brother? Ma'am."
"Yes. I would say out of everyone that came to me, he had the most potential. It's only a matter of time where he is recognised as one of the strongest if not, strongest Disicple."
"Well you'll see that I have more potential than him."
"I doubt it. You're lucky I'm even doing this. I don't like many humans. Be glad that your brother is part of the few that I like. Now we may go."
"Wait what?"
The Mezame Angel changes the space into a peaceful garden.
"Sit down legs crossed young boy."
Kuragami sits down with his legs crossed. The Mezame Angel stands in front of him. She raises her aura. She is surrounded by a white aura. Keikena is impressed.
"Her aura still amazes me."
"I've never felt aura like this Keikena."
The Mezame Angel places two fingers on Kuragami.
"Raise your aura boy."
Kuragami raises his aura. The blue aura around him slowly turns into a white aura, the same colour as the Mezame Angel's.
"Our auras are now one. Now I'm going to step into your soul."
The pupils in Kuragami's eyes dissapear. The aura intensifies. The Mezame Angels spirit steps into Kuragami's soul.
Everything is bright. She feels safe in Kuragami's soul.
"The boys soul, it's nice. It's just like my world. I feel free."
Suddenly, The Mezame Angel feels something approaching her. From both directions. Two things very powerful.
Darkness starts to spread around. His soul starts to get dark. It feels like his aura, but something a lot different. A bright blue light shines from the opposite direction, fighting the Darkness.
A person appears from the light. The Mezame Angel swiftly looks back.
"No way. It's you. But, that's impossible."
Keikena starts to get worried. They have been in this state for quite a long time.
"This has been going on for longer than usual. What's happening?
The aura rises causing wind around the garden.
"What the hell is going on? Kuragami!"
The aura and wind intensifies. The whole space becomes endangered by the sudden change in aura.
"This is bad! We need to stop this!"
Suddenly the aura stops. The Mezame Angel and Kuragami goes back to their normal state. However, she looks absolutely shocked.
She tries to cover it up and acts normal.
"Your potential has been unlocked Kuragami. It is now up to you to awaken it."
"Okay."
"Now, I'll help you with Ice Coating. But the training is very dangerous. Especially for someone your age."
"Wait. Didn't you say I can die from this?"
"If your not willing to take that risk then there's no point of you being here."
"No wait. I'll do anything. No matter the risk. For me to become stronger I have to train like my life depends on it. Because it low-key does."
"That's the spirit."
"Great so the first thing we will do is controlling your aura where gravity pressure is high.
"What?"
"Wait this isn't th-"
The Mezame Angel teleports Keikena and the guards away. She changes the space around her and Kuragami into a place surrounded by a special type of concrete.
"Where are we?"
"Get ready young man. This will be intense."
She lifts her arm up. The gravity pressure increases massively causing Kuragami to fall straight flat on the ground.
"What..the…hell."
Kuragami can't move an inch. It's like he's glued to the floor.
"I..cant…move."
"That's the whole point. Now this is your objective for the next few days. Your going to try stand up in this gravity pressure for 5 seconds.
"Only 5 seconds? Easy."
"Fine then we'll make it 10 seconds. This is not as easy as you think. To be able to move, you have to concentrate your aura throughout your whole body. That's how you gain the strength to move in this environment."
"So concentrate my aura throughout my whole body? Easier said than done."
"Well I'll be back to check on you in two hours."
"Wait, two hours of this? Come on this is so uncomfortable."
"Not my problem."
The Angel disappears leaving Kuragami by himself.
"So concentrate my aura."
Kuragami raises his aura throughout his whole body surrounding himself with his blue aura.
Keikena and the other guards got sent to a room somewhere in the space. The Mezame Angel teleports into the room. Keikena stands up. He looks angry. He rarely gets angry.
"What was all of that? Gravity pressure? That's not how you learn coating."
"It's a better way to learn coating."
"Since when?"
"I don't have to explain myself to you human. This is how angels learn coating. It's a better method than the human way."
"Fine. My bad. But this is just strange to me. This isn't a normal awakening. When you were in his soul, the aura increased wildly. Your world was shaking."
"It's fine. There's no casualties. Everything is fine."
"If you say so."
"Now how about you and Kuragami stay here?"
"Yeah that will be nice."
"Great. You must be hungry, let's eat."
The Mezame Angel teleports all of them to a dining hall full of food.
In a base near the temple. There's a bunch of Disciples planning something. There's pictures of the Angel with large red crosses drawn around them. The base has a large logo resembling a three headed dragon. Someone walks up on the stage in the base.
"Everyone look the boss is making a speech!"
"Yes boss! What are we going to do this time."
"My fellow Rogue Disciples!The big boss has ordered our base to capture the Angel! So, that's exactly what we are going to do. Starting from tomorrow, we will attack that lousy temple retrieving the Angel! From there on out, our boss will use her power for world domination!"
All the Rogue Disciples start cheering.
"So guys, once we take the Angel, the future will brighten up! Not for her though. Muahahahaha!"
All the Rogue Disciples start laughing waving their weapons high in the air. The leader says something to himself.
"Soon, everything I've ever dreamed of will become true. All thanks to the big boss."
