Animals that left the forest when it was on fire started going back to the undamaged parts, and it seemed the rest were just migrating from the burned parts to the safe zones.
The center of district one, therefore, was so calm, people of district one celebrated all day the massacre they did to those people from district 2.
Chris was having credits for the plan he executed and for saving them and he didn't hate it at all, he loved it so much because he was getting all that he aimed for.
Until midnight people kept on drinking alcohol while dancing and talking and having fun, while those who didn't agree with what happened just left the place to save some of the sanity they had.
Only a few were able to see the full picture of what was happening around them.The fact that they were still trapped in a region that is on the brink of extinction and that they were all out of the leveling up system officially .
Arino and his wife didn't participate in that celebration, he just accompanied Lexie's family to their house and tried to help them organize things with his magic.
Lexie was out of the picture completely, she was not interested in what everyone was doing, her only concern was to find the little Ciel after she messed things up by her reaction to hearing Isiah's name.
She was near the forest when she saw some lights coming from afar.
Knowing what her people were doing she was sure that the lights that were approaching her house near the forest did not belong to people from her district.
According to the distance of those lights Lexie calculated their distance fast, she realized that they were not very far from them, and the only thing that she was able to do was to run away towards her house to alert her family and Arino's .
It was very late and her mother and sisters were sleeping outside the house before organizing it with magic after that terrifying fire.
" Mom…Silin…Jinny…wake up …you have to wake up immediately " She shouted to them as she was running toward Arino's house. Her mom woke up right away because she got used to sleeping lightly after all these past ripple full moons.
" Meet me outside the garden …hurry up" She said while she increased her speed to reach Arino's house.
He was too sleeping outside the house while hugging his wife from the back as she was too hugging their little kid the same way he was doing to her.
Arino too woke the moment he heard her footsteps getting closer to his house and when their eyes met he knew that something bad was about to happen .
" Lights….ahhhhh….. lights are coming from the direction of the palace…right where Chris did his crimes …"
" Are you sure, Lexie? "
He was then waking his wife up, Lexie bend over to put her palms upon her knees then said while exhaling heavily :" The lights weren't ours for sure and they are getting closer really fast "
"I have to hide with my family right now" Lexie shouted while trying to rest for a bit then turned around immediately not even caring whether he was following her or not .
"Do you know where to hide ? '' Arino asked because he was so concerned about her and her family, he knew her father back in the days and she was more like a little copy of him, she didn't look like him but every move she made was just reminded him of her father whom he was a friend with .
" The forest" She said while pointing at it knowing that people from district 2 won't take any risks by going there after the fire .
" I am sure that it is not safe to go there""
" There is no place safe on Delwias Island anymore, what Chris did is going to reflect badly on our future, by killing those people he declared war, and i am not even sure if i want to be part of this situation" Lexie replied to him with a sad look on her face then waved at him and run away toward her house.
When she got there she found her mother waiting for her with her 2 sisters, she made them hurry to follow her as soon as she got there.
Before getting inside the forest she looked at the light that was just a few meters away from them, she then realized that what she and Arino feared the most was going to happen .
Her mother and sisters went inside the forest without any light, they were trembling with every step however Lexie knew that if she had to make a fire spell to light up the path they were going to see her .
The distance between them was so close and that is why she had to hurry and find a safe place to hide them.
BOOOOOOOM
A lot of noises came to her ears, she knew that at that moment they reached her house and probably destroyed it to the ground ,it was already burned but like that they made sure to kill all who were there in that place .
BOOOOOOM
Another hit that Lexie felt it inside of her heart this time, she was hesitant as she realized that maybe this hit was in Arino's house .
" Move Lexie , you can't stop here , you were right about everything, they are not our people and they are definitely going to kill us when they see us " Her mother said as she grabbed her hand trying to make her follow her .
" I think Arino ….i think he was shot this time by whatever type of magic is this " Lexie said while trying to hold her tears from falling.
" I am sure that they are fine, you did the right thing, don't worry , plus …Arino is very strong …i guess he is able to take care of himself and his family ".
BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM
The entire place got destroyed including the place where Lexie was in at that moment.
She fell on the ground, while she started to feel dizzy, as if her entire world was moving around her, her nose bleed immediately as the ash was falling all over her .
