章節 20: Transfer.
As Loki stepped onto the street, he found Kreacher's floating head turning to him and speaking in a rough voice that felt like sawdust grinding against his ears, "Mistress's guest can walk ahead. Kreacher will follow."
"I understand." Loki nodded feeling slight pity for the creature in front of him that looked like it was in a similar situation that he was in not long ago.
But since it was not his place to say anything he just nodded and moved on with his task of bringing his little sister to the house.
As Loki stepped out of the house he felt someone tailing him, but when he tried to look around he found no one.
'I need to learn this spell. It'll be so helpful in stealing.'
'Oh, wait, no. I don't need to steal anymore.'
Walking back to his house, Loki fell into silent contemplation about what he had just learnt.
'Is there really no pathway related to the Fool, the Error and the Door?'
'But then why would I have the sefirot of the corresponding pathway?'
'And then there's law of beyonder characteristic convergence, so shouldn't Walburga have these characteristics?'
'Is she lying?'
'On top of it all, what about the characteristics that the Celestial Worthy Of Heaven and Earth would've planned for me to ingest and lose control?'
'It feels like the True God of the Darkness pathway has concealed the three pathways for a particular reason.'
'But if it is concealed why can I share knowledge about these pathways? Shouldn't I also be affected by the concealment?'
'Maybe it is because of the Sefirot the concealment does not affect me?'
'Then I need to be mindful of my words, it'd be best if I was able to begin my journey in one of these pathways while keeping it disguised as another of the recognised nineteen pathways.'
Arriving in front of his house, Loki stood outside for a few moments and then with a soft *sigh* shook his head as he pushed the door open to pick Elane up.
'Whatever, I'll think about all this later.'
"Elane! Elane! Wake up!!!"
"Big Bwother…" Elane woke up with a soft *yawn* since it was still early in the morning.
"Big Bwother!! You're early today!!" Elane exclaimed as she saw Loki and instantly became happier.
Rushing to hug him, Elane raised her hands wanting to be picked up. And Loki did just that, he picked her up and looked comically funny with a similarly sized human clinging onto him when he was still so short.
"Elane we're going to a new home today."
"New home Big Bwother?" Elane asked with wide eyes.
"Yes, Elane. New home! It's even grander than this one! And we'll even have a servant who can help us!"
"Sevant? Can Elane play with the sevant!?"
"Yes! He'll play any game you ask him to."
"Yaaayiiieeeee!!!!"
"There will even be magic for you to see! Your toys will fly on their own, light up and even sing on their own!"
"Magic!!!!????"
"Yes! Magic! A witch will be living with us too!"
"Can she play with me too?"
"Haha, Yes!! So do you like it!?" Loki thought with a sly smile on his face.
That lady can at least do this much for me right, since she expects me to save her life?'
"Elane loves to play!" Elane shouted with joy as she nestled against her brother.
"Good then let's go." Loki nodded and then spoke into the air, "Kreacher there are a few stuffed toys on the upper floor, could you please get them along with us?"
"As you wish Mistress guests." Kreacher said breaking out of his invisibility and surprising Elane.
"Big Bwother!!!" Elane hugged Loki tighter feeling a little scared.
"He's a good person like you Elane. Don't you want to play with him?"
"Elane can play with him Big Bwother?"
"Yes. You can play with him."
Elane maintained eye contact with Kreacher for a bit as if analysing what games she could play with him and then nodded, "Ok Big Bwother."
"Can I teleport you, sirs and madams?" Kreacher asked.
"Yes, do you want us to do something?" Loki asked.
"Your hand sir.", Kreacher said and Loki nodded while extending his hand which Kreacher held tight.
As soon as Kreacher held Loki's hand the space around them twisted and in a swirl of colours they vanished into a point, reappearing in the same hallway where Walburga was sitting on her chair, under an empty portrait.
'Arghh…I don't want to go through that ever again.' Loki decided in his mind holding his head with his free hand.
"You're back.", Walburga stated while she read the newspaper, drinking some plain tea.
"Big Bwother, can we go again!!?" Elane blurted the question out with huge expectations as she ignored Walburga and asked Loki with a happy tone.
Her eyes happily scanned everything, jumping from one object to the next absorbing everything in sight like the hungry eyes of a predator.
"You want to do that again!?" Loki asked surprised but Elane just nodded happily with a bright smile on her face.
Loki immediately looked around the room to distract Elane with something when his eyes fell on Walburga who was annoyed since she was ignored, he thought of an idea.
"Elane! Look! She's the witch I told you about! She can do magic!! Don't you want to see magic!?" Loki asked with a smile on his face that pissed off Walburga.
Elane looked at Walburga with all the focus her nearly four-year-old body could produce.
Veins on Walburga's head throbbed but she still pulled out her wand and showed Elane a simple magic trick, she conjured a bunch of roses and handed them to Elane.
"Here little girl."
"WWWWAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!" Elane shouted in joy as she got down from Loki and immediately rushed toward Walburga.
"You're the best!!!!" Elane shouted hugging Walburga while Loki was forced to watch on in jealousy with Walburga smirking back at him.
"Can you make a doll!?" Elane asked and Walburga granted her wish, conjuring a beautiful knitted doll that looked like a mini version of Elane herself.
"IT'S MEEEEE!!!! Big Bwother look!!! How cool is this!!!" Elane shouted as she waved around her doll and began to play with it.
"Yes, yes, it's nice that you've found a new doll, but what do you say at a time like this?" Loki asked as he pulled on Elane's fluffy cheeks.
"Whank wyou?"
"Yes, tell that to Misses Black then."
"Whank wyou Misses Bwack." Elane kindly greeted and then went back to playing with her new doll sitting on the floor.
"You're surprisingly good with kids Misses Black." Loki said as he watched Elane play with her doll.
"Hmpf. Whatever. Kreacher will show you to your rooms. I hope you are ready in two hours. I will begin to teach you about magic then. There isn't much time, and I don't want to waste my time with you if you don't have any talent."
"Seriously!?" Loki asked with a surprised look on his face.
"Yes. I do not joke around Mr. Loki."
"Hehe~ I can already imagine me being the most powerful wizard there is in the world."
Walburga just shook her head looking at Loki who had stars in his eyes and was staring off into the distance, "We shall see. But I appreciate your enthusiasm. I hope you can maintain it throughout our lessons."
