"Where.. am I?" A weak, fainted voice coming from a man whose about to die after a fight that he himself know he's not going to win.
Knowing that the boy had went through all of his young, unfortunate life facing up against the magic beast and creatures residing in a dungeon. But some of it are living freely all the way on the outside.
Levi Furiman, a 14 year-old 'E'-rank Adventurer living in a world that everything he saw are new on his own eyes. The fact that he lost on a certain contract whereas the consequences of losing it has to deal with a greatest punishment on his life that made himself had changed forever.
{You are going to a world where the Dragon Nests are living in their own accords. You must deal with them for you to get stronger on your own!}
An Eerie, vicious voice made by the 'Balancer of Race' channeling its powers to sent him away from the world he once living in.
A month of living in a world that he felt ignorant on his young age. Levi Furiman left isolated himself away from the people that seemingly atrocious on him.
He even steal everything, especially to the foods and commodities made by the villagers from their livelihood for themselves in order for him to live longer and keeping his shape on dealing with the magic creatures and monsters inside and outside the dungeon all by himself. Knowing the fact that the punishments for stealing in their world was far brutal than the ones he knows to.
It was a double edged decision for the minds of a young, foreign Levi Furiman wanting his life to survive and williness to live not just for his own sake, but to fulfill all the quest and missions prepared by the Balancer of Race itself in order for him to return back into his life.
{You must conquer all 8 Dragon Nests living in that world. After that, you are able to return back into your present life.}
...
"Oh... You're alive, thank goodness!" An old passerby having his return to his home, far away from the main town.
"Who.. Are.. You? Thank you.. for saving.. me" A wounded, half-dead Levi Furiman trying to say his gratitude while painfully lying down on a wooden carriage made by the Old man.
His eyes went dim, trying to see the person helping him whilst keeping himself on guard throughout his surroundings.
Even though the blood kept flowing on his body like a faucet after the fight he faced against the low-graded goblins. Levi kept attending himself to the man wanting to help while pressuring his wounds to stop from flowing.
"My name is Pastor Ozril.. don't worry kid, I am not going to hurt you.. you seemed restless tonight, I won't let you die this night... not on my watch"
Levi couldn't believe that someone finally gets his attention after a month of living in a world sended by the Balancer of Race to him. He felt gratitude for the man lending his hand to help him up from his agony, screeching alot inside the carriage for joy and having in debited to him on that night.
"My.. My.. just cry alot like a baby, you deserved that." Telling to Levi with a teasing laugh and grinning on him like his own son.
.
It was already dusk and the night is started to rise when Pastor Ozril, along with badly wounded Levi had finally arrived to the church where he lives in.
"We finally arrived, Levi-kid.. let's treated your wounds properly there." A concerned, worried Pastor Ozril notifies to Levi about it.
"Thank... you.. Pastor Ozril.." Levi trying to respond his help even though he's already half-dead and nearly unconscious.
"Don't mind it, just hang in there!" Pastor Ozril replied to Levi with a bit restless on him.
As soon as the carriage reached through the door, Pastor Ozril immediately yells out from the outside to calls for help on the inside.
"Help! ... I bring wounded person, anyone come outside and help me out here!"
Knowing that there were some people living on the church other than Pastor Ozril, they went rushes straight to the outside as soon as they heard the Pastor's voice.
/Feet rumbling/
/Floor crumbling/
As they reached to where the voices came to their ears, they surprised and worried at the same time as they saw a lot of blood covering the entirety of the wagon. They left nothing in their words as they started to worry about the happenings that the Pastor had bringing to the church and began wondering on how did he get into that kind of situation.
Suddenly, as the people slowly opened the carriage tent and wanted to pick up the person inside. They surprised and seemed disappointed to the one bringing it as they saw a familiar appearance that made them irritated and disgusted.
"That Boy..."
"The notorious village thief."
"You'd bring some delinquent boy into this sacred place, Pastor Ozril?"
"This boy doesn't belong to this sacred place."
Everyone couldn't hold their emotions to Pastor Ozril due to the fact that he brings and helping the mere Levi Furiman whom has having a bad reputation towards the people throughout the village.
As they result, they started to decline what the Pastor requested to them and started to head themselves out as quick as they could. But then, the moment they started to leave the place and abandoning the orders made by Pastor Ozril. The Pastor on the other hand had a simple words to everyone, that made them changed their mind like they're being slapped by realization.
"Are you guys... believed in God?" Pastor Ozril had his first response to them.
"Of course, that is why we were here serving Him with all of our lives!"
"We give it all in our hearts. money, glory, everything!, for the church as well!"
"In order for us to save, we must believed in Him!"
Unfortunately, all of their answers didn't match from what Pastor Ozril wanted to know for them.
He tried to ask them in a different question.
"You guys, In your own opinion.. Does God do really forgiving?" Pastor Ozril asking them again with a serious gesture.
At that point, everyone began stunned and couldn't reply to Pastor Ozril's question. They finally realized the importance of forgiving no matter what kinds of sins every single one they atonned.
"Then you guys must forgive him.. The way God is always forgive us... especially to the young boy like Levi Furiman.." Pastor Ozril started to conclude his thoughts to the people.
"Besides, he only steals food and clothes not for himself, but for the other people whose more needed than him! ... nothing seems too big that he steals from you guys living in this village.." Pastor Ozril added to them.
A slap of realization, the people who once reluctant to the orders made by Pastor Ozril started to felt guilt to their actions they made just recently.
And so, they also realized the eyes of Pastor Ozril desperately wanted to help the boy whose lying in the carriage and about to die from losing so much blood. They immediately help the wounded Levi Furiman by putting him inside the church and washing his wounds as soon as they enter it.
Inside the church. Pastor Ozril, along with the orphaned children had started preparing their meals for dinner while other church people treating Levi Furiman's open wounds thoroughly on the church clinic.
Out of their innocent curiosities, the orphaned children started to ask Pastor Ozril about the person he brings along with him.
"That boy... is your new 'Nakama' ..." He answered to the orphaned children with a smile on his face.
"I want to meet him."
"Me too.."
After a few minutes of preparing the meals, the people who treated Levi's wounds on the other hand had done on their part by using the magic spells to speed up his recovery.
Unfortunately, the church people are having their bad news to the church Pastor regarding to Levi Furiman's condition. Resulting them to lose hope at the moment.
"His wounds... are not closing completely."
"Even though we sealed up the blood from spilling to the ground, the open wounds he receives are our main concerns to him..."
"We resolving it by bandaging the wounds to covered up from infections.. That is all we can do to it.. But he's alive anyway, he rested up to the clinic room, hoping it would sealed up naturally.."
But then, Pastor Ozril felt relieved yet worried at the same time as the news he heard coming from them are rather good nor bad for it.
He then asking the church people for calling out the day as they also need their rest for themselves to regain its magic powers, that they used for healing the badly wounded Levi Furiman.
..
Morning sunrise at the church where Levi Furiman rested in. Pastor Ozril went to the village market to buy goods and neccessities for their breakfast, as well as lunch and dinner.
"You'd seem going to the village aren't you? come on jump in!"
Along with the people who once helping up Levi's recovery, they went also to the village market to buy something they need for everyday's work. They left invited a ride to Pastor Ozril's carriage as his token of gratitude for helping him out recently.
As the people gladly accepted his offer for riding along to his carriage. Everyone surprised and terrified as the blood made by Levi's wounds didn't much clean completely, rather it spreads out the whole carriage's inside.
"I sincerely apologize for the unwanted views coming on the inside... I swearing to you everyone, I cleaned that almost 5 times in a row early this morning... And yet, the stains didn't seem removed completely..." Pastor Ozril having his thoughts to the people before riding the carriage as he reminded them in the first place for it.
Knowing that the village where everyone heading to was few kilometers away from their home, and a few hours long by just walking into. They had no choice but to accept the Pastor's offer without having complain, for them to save time and energy on travelling back and forth.
Also, even though they have magic powers relying on almost every single work they do. They cannot use magic spells to fly nor using for transportation due to the fact that the magic pool they emitted was barely enough to used it for everyday use. Even for Pastor Ozril whom barely uses magic spell.
!!??
Few minutes had passed when they started to ride the carriage, some of them whom already taken their breakfasts started to vomit nonchalantly not because of the rough road they travelling, but because of the blood that can be seen everywhere.
They couldn't hold their gut and started to felt restless after some of them began vomit and started spitting on the road.
Suddenly, as everyone kept holding their nose and mouth trying not to vomit. They started to relieved themselves as a nice, fragrant smell started to burst inside the carriage coming from out of nowhere.
Out of their curiosity, everyone inside the carriage are having their minds into one, started to wonder how a nice, pleasant smell kept spreading inside when there's so many blood stains covering the entirety of the carriage.
Pastor Ozril who the ones driving the wooden carriage on the other hand, was the one explaining to the people on the inside about the situation they made into.
"Oh... So you guys finally recognize that smell?... Would you guys minded smelling those blood stains?" Pastor Ozril asking to them with pleasure.
At first, everyone seemed disbelief to the Pastor who the one daring such ridiculous request to them. Some of them whom started vomitting a moment ago had declined immediately, yet others who did not are accepted.
/Sniff/ /Sniff/
"This is! ..."
"The souce of elegant smell we smelled the whole time was coming from the blood stains?"
"What in the world is going on?"
In a logical manner, the blood stains when dried out began stinky and started spreading unpleasant smell the longer it started. But the people who smelling it made astonished and couldn't believe what they search as the dare Pastor Ozril made for them had became worth it.
However, what their minds made wondering the most is the one sourcing the pleasant smell coming from a blood stains that made them intrigue and felt restless instead of relieving.
.

***To be Continued***
"You lose, Levi Furiman." A viscious, wicked voices made by an unknown being coming from out of knowhere.
"The contract you made from us had failed to complete."
"In other words, the consequences of losing it had come to pay its price."
With a brink of dead in an unknown dungeon, Levi Furiman lost to a fight against one of the guardian knights of the 8 Legendary Dragon Nest.
Even though the Balancer of Race granted him a temporary Awakening powes with a possessor of Jewish-Enochian Race. Levi still couldn't able to fight toe-to-toe against the might and powers of the Guardian knight due to his inexperience of fighting the enemies and lack of determination on winning, it leads him to taste the bitterness of losing.
However, the Balancer of Race managed to give Levi Furiman a second chance by reviving him back to his life, yet sended him to a world where everyone he saw was new to his eyes.
The Balancer of Race itself granted him a special Awakening eyes, far immesurable than anyone could imagine.
{If this boy trains even harder and able to surpass his limits... he will definitely able to defeat us!}
{Now then, I will send you to that world.. we will waiting for you anytime you wanted to do.}
...
*...Aaahhhh...*
A scream of fear made by Levi after he wakes up from suffering severe wounds on his recent solo dungeon raid.
"Dammit... It was just a nightmare..."
Levi felt restless and his mind went out blank as he never thought about his dream could be constantly appearing everytime he tried to sleep since the day he came in.
"That is why I never tried to sleep..."
Because of that, Levi couldn't managed to rest well as the nightmares he think was constantly appearing, due to the fact that those happenings are getting involved his former comrades who slowly dying into his stead one-by-one.
Knowing the fact that he was the only one alive in that incident, making him to felt guilt and dismayed against it.
"I need to get stronger as fast as I could.. in order to finish this pathetic contract and getting out of this pathetic worlds." A words of determination that flaming into the eyes of young and wild Levi Furiman, started to move itself even his body couldn't lay a single move at that moment.
*Creak*
/Bone cracking/
"Aaahhh... It hurts!!!" Levi screams in agony while trying to move his body recklessly.
Even though those cracks made on his body are similar to the stretching exercises in a daily workout. Levi Furiman on his instances are way more painful due to his exhausted body, wanted to rest a little longer.
Because of it, the blood on his wounds had started to flow again. Causing him felt restless once again.
He tried to patch up again, trying to hold the blood flowing to his body. Fortunately, he succeeds to close it.
*Knock* *knock*
"Come...In..." Levi couldn't even speak properly due to his pain he felt.
/Door open/
"Are you...Okay?.. I hear loud noise coming from this place..." A lady rushes in and asking to Levi with concern.
Levi on the other hand, suddenly stunned for a while as he saw a beautiful lady coming into his room like an angel sending him from heaven.
"Ye..yeah.. I'm.. Okay..." Levi responding it with a bit blushed on his face.
The lady felt relieved as she heard to him that he's alright. She started introducing herself afterwards.
"My name is Cassandra Smith, I'm 16 years-old. A double Awakening possessor and wielder of a Providence Race.. nice to meet you... How about you?..." She introduced it with elegance.
"My name... is Levi... Furiman, nice to mee--- ... wait, what?" Levi surprised to Cassandra as the way she introduced herself to him.
...
Pastor Ozril, along with the people who help Levi yesterday had finally arrived to the Willow Village, 15 minutes ago since they rode the carriage in the church.
Chatter, wonders and confusion. All sorts of theories and conspiracy regarding to the blood stains made by Levi Furiman's wounds had came along to their travel.
Out of their curiosity, most of them started to ask Pastor Ozril about it without shock and trembles on their body.
"What in the world is going on, Pastor Ozril? we couldn't believe that this elegant smell and fragrant are coming from these blood stains?"
"And not just that, it started spreading all the way on the outside!"
"How come could this happen, Pastor?"
Pastor Ozril on the other hand, tried to calm down those people as their ignorance and confusion started to rise on their minds. He started to explain one-by-one to it.
"Well, it started when I picked up That boy outside the dungeon, near the river... He's bathing with own blood and wounds on his body are staggering as what you guys saw that night... While are you people nonchalantly treating that boy's open wounds and blood on his weak, fragile body. I was on the back on the church cleaning the carriage and trying to remove the blood stains sticking out the cover cloth... It takes me some time to remove it, scrubing the cloth with strong pressure and forcing myself to use magic on it... Unfortunately, some of it completely removed but most of it as what you guys see today couldn't... The morning afterwards, I went back to the carriage to use it again this morning at the same time to see the blood stains if it were removed on their own... But that would made me more surprised as the elegant fragrant scent of those stains started to burst whenever I get near or getting inside the carriage like you guys did... Then I tried to stepped back thinking about the scent would reached me, but sadly it couldn't... That's what I know about those stains.. "
But then, everyone seemed flustered to Pastor Ozril as they still didn't convinced to his statement about those fragrant blood stains. They let it slide at the moment, thinking they started hallucinate for nothing.
They arrived at the village market, empty minded and perplexed feeling that made them restless for the rest of the day.
"Thank you for letting us ride to your carriage, Pastor Ozril.."
"That was time-saving ride Pastor, thank you very much..."
"We hope we get ride back to our houses, Pastor... hahahahahaha.."
And so, everyone left apart after they reached the center aisle of the village market.
.
/Murmurs from the stall vendors./
/Random voices coming from everywhere./
/Blacksmiths kept busy making weapons to their customers./
/Weapons placing to the merchants and blacksmith's stalls./
/Merchants advertising their product to the village people and outsiders./
As they reached to the center of the village market, Pastor Ozril who went to the wet market to buy meat and vegetables for their daily fasting until tomorrow, notice the crowd of people gathering into one place and started giving newspapers and quest reports about the village and towns current events for the past few weeks.
"Listen up people of Willow Village, these are the weekly reports coming from Prairie town as well as the newspapers in it... Hurry up! fall in line, everyone will have these..."
*Grab* *Grab*
/Townspeople started giving newspapers./
/Other townspeople started posting Quest papers and reports to the Villages bulletin board./
Pastor Ozril on the other hand, already done for his groceries and started to leave the busy Village market, couldn't handle his curiosity and went straight to where the ruckus had made.
He tied up his horse at the corner yard with his carriage, putting his groceries inside and using it with magic spell to hidden away from the common thieves, and rushes through the place as soon as he finished putting together.
Unfortunately, as he arrived to that place, Pastor Ozril felt distraught and regretted as the newspaper that townspeople giving to them had already sold out.
He left nothing but disappointed, knowing the fact that it will arrived to their village once in a week. As the result, he made himself attended and remembered for the day the townspeople arriving to them.
Suddenly, one of the townspeople noticed the disappointed and distraught Pastor Ozril started leaving the Village market regretfully. He went out to him as soon as he recognized it.
"Oh... are you the Priest assigning to this village?" A townspeople asking to Pastor Ozril with having a second-thought at him.
"Ye..Yes... I am.. How did you know that?" He replied it with slight discomfort to the townspeople.
"Because of your magic presence, and also that outfit you wear ..." A townspeople confirming his thoughts to him.
Pastor Ozril at that time, didn't wear his Priest uniform due to the fact that only sunday they allowed to wear and only a white long sleeve with a brown cotton gloves they wear for weekdays.
"By the way, my name is Misho, a member of the Adventurer Knights of Prairie town... I want to talk to you, Priest of Willow Village.." Misho introducing himself to Pastor Ozril with respect.
"So that explains it... hahahaha! ... My name is Ozril... what is it Mr. Misho?"
"I just want to give you some newspaper and quest report for this past week... You'd seem frustrated when you didn't receive it earlier, didn't you..."
"Hahaha! .. yeah, the time when I get back, it was too late for me get it... but I sincerely thanking you for this... you made your time and attention approaching on me for this mere piece of paper.."
"You're very welcome, Pastor Ozril... that was nothing..." Misho suddenly laugh while having his appreciation on him.
Suddenly, Misho's expression had changed drastically as the main reason for him to approached Pastor Ozril began serious and attentively.
Pastor Ozril on the other hand, already noticed the sudden changes of the atmosphere as the pressure coming from their conversation with Misho became intense.
"But I came here into your stead knowing that you are the only person living in this village that seemed reliable to talked to..." Misho began speaking to Pastor Ozril with a serious gesture.
"What are you talking about, Mr. Misho?... why am I the one reliable to tell about this?..." He replied it with having flustered and nervous
"I know you're not the only one believing the news that putting inside that pathetic piece of paper, aren't you?"
"What are you say--"
"Not all news they put was true... I heard some informative person regarding the recent incident in this area, far opposite to what the new telling us about..."
"About what Mr, Misho?..." Pastor Ozril asking it with cautious intent.
Misho on the other hand, began explaining to his thoughts to Pastor Ozril that made him terrified and acted restless.
"Few days ago, there was a dungeon break located 3 kilometers north-western part of Willow village occurred. Since then, tens of villagers started to relocate themselves away from the dungeon to secure their lives against the magic creatures and monsters anytime they start to havoc. "
"Yes, I heard that incident.. In fact, most of them are still here and couldn't managed to return back because they're scared of monsters roaming into their places ..."
"That's what they write about the news... aside from that, they tried to put things out good in order for the people to feel relieved and rest assured regarding on what they saw intially in that dungeon... But what actually happened was that According to some source, there was a being, far monsterous than the actual magic creatures residing in that dungeon... killing every single one of it, no sparing but rather annilihating it. I don't know what in the world is going on but.... We came here to investigate, to find out what kind of being that started attacking the dungeon..."
"I am not telling you to be fear about it, but rather a warning to be careful against it... " Misho concluded his thoughts to Pastor regarding to the dungeon break occurred few days ago.
However, Pastor Ozril already knew about the incident, but couldn't tell to anyone due to the fact that the consequences of revealing it had taken the impact of lives of every single individual in his village.
Especially to Levi Furiman whereas he saw drop dead outside the dungeon, thinking that he was 'That being' singlehandedly dealing with the dungeon break few days ago.
"I promise I won't tell anyone about this, until you found out the truth no matter the cost." A words of promise made by Pastor Ozril to Misho as he tried to ended up their conversation and started getting his leave immediately.
' I don't know what exactly happen... but one thing for sure to me... I will definitely protect that kid no matter the cost! ...' Pastor Ozril having his thoughts to Levi Furiman, that causing him to feel restless and uneasiness on him.
.

***To be Continued***
"Let's go outside, I'll show you my magic and awakening powers."
An energetic, confident Cassandra wanted to demonstrate her powers to Ill-bedded Levi Furiman whom acquiring it just recently.
With a pounding heart of excitement, Levi graciously agreed to it.
Knowing that his body still couldn't lay any single movement due to the wounds that seemingly hurt and startrd getting healed after a week or two of recovery. He still manages to walk with her outside the church.
"Are you sure about this? you'd seem hurt whenever you walk.... Let's call this a day, I can actually wait anyway! "
A soft, touching voice made by Cassandra that started to worry after she noticed to her friend getting a hard time walking along by himself.
She can't even managed to assist him walking, knowing that every single part of his body are full of open wounds. Both scratches to mild lacerations, she knows it will be a burden to assist him in his current condition.
"I'm fine, as long as I want to know everything about this world..."
A harsh, burning eyes of Levi desperately wanted to learn everything about the existence of her magic and awakening powers she possess.
.
The two young people went outside the church after Cassandra granted the request made by Levi.
The two seemingly ecstatic as the winds on that day are having in their favor. They enjoyed the clear, blue skies seeing from the heavens.
But then, the main purpose for them wanting to go outside, was to show the awakening and magic powers that Cassandra acquired few months ago.
"Let's begin..."
"Yeah..." Levi started to fired up watching Cassandra on a bottom of the tree.
She decided to show up her magic powers before the Awakening powers that Levi requesting to.
(Heavy breathing)
Cassandra taking her deep breath multiple times to generate the magic flow on her body very deeply.
!!??
A sudden burst of magic aura surging throughout Cassandra's body.
Levi on the other hand, felt astonished as he saw the flow of magic powers surging to Cassandra right in front of his eyes.
In his whole month of living after the Balancer of Race summoned him in this world, Levi Furiman had started having mixed emotions that he himself couldn't figured out what he actually feels as he saw new things far different than he once used to lived.
However, Cassandra hasn't done to amazed Levi yet as she begin to cast a magic spell after a minute of bursting her magic aura, resulting the leaves and grass they're standing in had blowing randomly.
*Elemental Magic!*
"Wind gust"
/A blast of wind bursting forth in a specific direction./
Levi felt amazed and surprised to Cassandra as she demonstrates her magic powers right in front of him.
He even started to get chills on his body after the spell Cassandra made.
"How was it? Levi-kun?... Is my spell that kind of strong to you?"
An elegant, gorgeous Cassandra wanting a comment made by Levi.
Unfortunately, the chills and pressure on his body suddenly disappeared and at ease as the natural winds are started to covered up the entire surroundings and dispelling the winds made by Cassandra.
Levi on the other hand, couldn't tell any sorts of disappointment on his new life trying not to hurt Cassandra's feeling.
He knows on his mind that her spell was quiet amusing, but not as strong as to testing it against the enemies. Also the fact that her spell was easily diminished by a natural gust, he knows that her spell was not suitable enough to hurt any other.
He left nothing but to appreciate her in the end, in exchange of not her being upset for some reason.
"That was great, Cassandra-san... your spell was ... So strong!..."
Fortunately, Cassandra gladly appreciates it.
But then, the feelings after someone finally acknowledges she hard work still couldn't fill out her empty heart as she didn't satisfy whatever she made since the day she receives her special awakening power.
"What's wrong?... You'd seem sad... Is there something wrong I said that made you upset?" Levi immediately noticed her uneasy feeling.
"Huh?... nothing Levi-kun! .. I just thinking that I want to get stronger, far stronger than you saw on me today... Hahahahaha! How ambitious I am.."
With a false joy of her expression, she left nothing but to laugh sarcastically to Levi.
Knowing that Levi on the other hand, already noticed and worried about her life about the consequences of acquiring the power that made her life on the line.
He even started to changed their topic to made her feelings at ease trying to forget anything that made her depressed at the moment.
Sadly, he himself didn't know how to deal a topic with his opposite gender. The way that he brings even to a world where he is reincarnated.
Making it an awkward moment between the two of them in a matter of minutes.
'Okay... now what? I'd done redirecting her emotions to made her happy... but what cost? come on... think you dammit brain, think harder! ...'
Unfortunately, Levi Furiman suck at dealing topics with women.
Also the reason why women at the same age as him or more couldn't get along with in his past world.
'That's it! ... I'm done... I'm sucked at dealing with women... Sayonara Cassandra... I hope you recognize me in the afterlife' --- His mind started to simulize after he failed on giving a topic to her.
Out of the blue, Cassandra who the ones depressed a moment ago. Suddenly realize about the second promise she made to Levi before they leave inside the church.
"...Oh!.. I forgot to show you my Awakening powers, Levi-kun... would you want to see it? ..." A loud, energetic voice trying to cheered up Levi to watch it.
Levi on the other hand, now the ones who felt depressed had no other choice to made but to accept the offer made by Cassandra.
"Huh?... Okay.. Sure..."
.
At that moment, Cassandra seemed fired up once again as she wanted to demostrated her Awakening powers to Levi Furiman this time.
(Heavy breathing)
She began to breathe deeply, more deeper than the first one. Even much longer than she made earlier.
The deeper she breathe, the stronger magic pressure aura she made.
The longer she breathe, the duration of her magic aura she emit are longer.
!!??
!! Boom !!
A sudden burst of magic aura, far stronger than the first one she made.
Levi who'd seemed perplexed and astonished at the same time, couldn't hold his feelings as he saw and felt an immesurable aura that even himself couldn't figured out where it started.
As the matter of fact, he saw Cassandra's magic flow changing its color drastically from plain white to brownish-white color, emitting violently throughout their surroundings.
Not only that, he saw her left eye completely changed into something that made him felt uneasy and terrified at the moment. As he saw a triangle-shaped brown-colored iris, filled with a dark-colored background on her lens, resembling to a power of the Provident people recognized by the Balancer of Race to become one of the Strongest Races. That made her facial appearance changed completely overtime.
Due to her physical appearance, Cassandra notice a frightened, terrified Levi Furiman started to hide on a tree where they rested at, thinking she might attacking him at any moment.
Like any other childish play, she tried to startled him by slowly getting near without hesitating.
"Hahahaha! ... Did I scared you Levi-kun? I'm really sorry... come on, look at me! this is what the double Awakening eyes that you want to see all these day... don't afraid to me, I'm not hurting you... come on you wimp, show yourself, don't hide on that tree and face me like a man! "
"I don't know what you had done through all your life, but remember. You are the ones forcing me to do this! I just want to show some gratitude on you. If you don't want to get out, I will make you getting out! hehehehehe..."
With an arrogant voice made by Cassandra Smith, all sorts of insulting words she made are everywhere into the poor Levi Furiman's ears.
Levi Furiman, whose sitting terrifyingly at the back of the tree, had nothing else to do but to feel petrified to Cassandra's appearance.
He suddenly went out of his mind as the nightmares he went through against the Balancer of Race's abbysal contract had returning back into his senses, that made him acted like crazy. After he saw the Awakening eyes of Cassandra Smith, so similar to the ones he saw on his nightmares.
To begin with, The 'Supreme' Awakening eye of the Jewish-Enochian Race has activated coming from out of nowhere. However, it releases only on his right eye while his left remains normal.
Not only that, his right eyesight was changing constantly and all he can see through it was all blue surroundings like he has a color blindness disease and a lot of system notification, similar to a computer emails constantly popping out into his right eye.
He started scratches his head, thinking it would be gone into his mind.
He tried to bite his nails until it bleeds thoroughly.
He even tried to bleed himself by scratching his wounds that nearly healed up completely, but then it opened up again.
{Kill, Kill, all those monsters and evil creatures you saw.... Kill!}
"Aaahhhaaahh"
"Please stop!!" A horrific voice, crying out loud, begging to stop the menace made by Levi as he wanted to stop his sufferings from the hands of the Balancer of Race.
Sadly, the more horrific memories he sticks it into his mind, the more pain he felt both mentally and physically.
Not until he ended up losing to scratched on his body, and started to cry out silently on a bottom of the tree.
Cassandra on the other hand, who saw everything he made, suddenly cried out as she couldn't believe what exactly happened to Levi in a matter of seconds.
A soft, gentle squeak of voice made by Levi wanting a favor on her that made it granted immediately.
"Help....Me..."
Two words, so many emotions. The first two lines he said to Cassandra that can easily answered. whether she'd like to help it, or rather not.
But in the case of Levi Furiman, all of his thoughts made captive into her soul that declining his help was definitely not an option.
Because of that, she put the unconscious Levi Furiman back into the church clinic, trying her best to sealed up his wounds by using her own magic and Awakening powers, with a broken heart of her will.
...
A few hours after Levi's collapsing, Pastor Ozril finally arrived to the church with having an uneasy feeling into his mind.
He instantly went to the washroom to clean himself up, also to calm his head from the warnings that constantly running into his mind.
'Calm down... Ozril, remember ... It was just speculations... there's nothing big deal about it... besides, the investigation made by the town Adventurers are now on going... we will safe for the moment... or rather not...'
