บท 114: Illusions
Kaled exits the room, and heads towards the central part of the castle. It is worthy to note that the castle is so large it could be a city instead, and divided into many sections.
He has a report to give for the Grand Masters!
....
Oslofjord.
In the meantime of everyone having their own struggles, Elara was herself taking action as well!
She doesn't just sit at the park near her house anymore, the news about the age of Gods got her curious enough to do some investigation.
However, she's not alone! The little kid she has met that time is now her only friend.
He would not be seperated from her the whole time she's out, and she herself has embraced his presence next to her.
Beside that he knows very well the streets! It's his first home.
Elara. "Are you sure you know where we're going, Stephan?"
"Yes I do, we play near there all the time, they actually hate us and kick us away because they don't want anybody to sneak inside." The kid replies.
On their way, everyone could not help himself but stare each time she passes someone.
"Who's this angel? I never seen her before, nor seen such beauty! She can't be human..."
Those were what anyone would say when staring at her.
Stephan teases her. "Look! Everyone is staring at you. You are so beautiful they can't help it."
Elara got extremely shy and embarassed, her cheeks turned pink and she lowered her head to the ground. That made her look even prettier!
Stephan laughs at the cute scene.
To avoid this, she used her illusions to make people see her as a regular woman! Except for Stephan who's the only one who knows her.
"Here it is! We arrived." He says.
Elara stops and looks up high.
"What a big building this is..."
Stephan. "Yeah I know, I think it's gonna be the tallest building in the city."
'They're building it in an open space as well, there's a large distance between it and the other buildings.'
"Since when they started working on it?" She asked.
Stephan. "Hmmmmmm...I don't remember exactly, but now that i think about it.
It wasn't long ago! Just a month i think."
Elara. "A month! How could they reach this far in that period of time?"
Stephan. "Yeah well it's always like this, when the government wants something to be done.
It is done faster than anything else."
"You sure talk bigger than your age!" Elara was impressed.
Stephan only laughs and scratches his head.
This is the effect of poverty and hardships, two things that kids normally do not fully comprehend.
But when one does, it's as if you replace his childhood with adulthood.
It might be impressive but it sure is sad, one at such young age cannot be weighed down by thoughts bigger than his body...
Elara. "So you say they let no one enter?"
Stephan. "Yes, beside that it's not finished yet."
Elara. "Hmmm, i want you to promise me something now."
Stephan. "Sure big sister!"
Elara. "Hold my hand and do not make a single voice until i give you the permission. Can you do that?"
Stephan is weirded by this request. "Euuhh...I can but! Why is that?"
Elara. "I'll tell you later, but if you did what im telling you. We'll be able to get inside for some time."
Stephan still doesn't understand how but he trusts Elara's words. So he held her hand and noded with his head.
Now it was time for her powers, she waited a moment to seize a worker in there. As soon as she did.
She made her move.
Walking so confidently towards the entry. Stephan was worried but he kept his mouth shut.
The Guardian kneeled in respect for them!!
'What...How is that!! Do they know her??' Stephan was asking himself in his mind.
They got inside!!
The two silently looked in all angles, and felt like they traveled 20years in the future.
The place was built just like a spaceship!
Technologies not seen before all over the place, It still needed some work but you can have an idea about how it will be when it's finished.
It was suprisingly empty from people at this moment, which was on the favor of the two.
Elara speaks first in a very low tone. "This is weird."
"I've never seen anything like this." Stephan replies in the same tone.
Elara. "I did, in movies...Movies in which they experiment on humans!
It might not be a good idea to compare the two but i am not fooled with how fancy this looks."
Elara's powers go beyond just actual illusions, even her senses are pushed to the extreme. Especially intuition! Women in general have that power over men.
Suddenly!!
"Oh! The boss is here."
Elara looked back, to see a young man coming downstairs!
"I thought you won't be back this early, Sir Sabnock!"
