Book 3: Chapter 30: Of The End
Scarlet
The howl resonates within me for some reason. It feels familiar. A little warm. But also weak? Why is this howl making me feel superior towards whoever or whatever is howling?
Its probably because youre higher in the pack than the blood lycan howling, Tar answers, sounding not the least bit surprised that theres a fucking blood lycan in the Fracture. Which shouldnt have happened since there was one in the last Class V Fracture. I will be able to answer a lot more of your questions after this Fracture is over. Please just bear with me for now.
I narrow my eyes at the air for a moment, only to lightly shake my head.
Then I hear Whites voice echo throughout the silent ballroom despite her talking quietly.
Damnit, it had to happen today? Of all days
I turn around, only to see White walking through a crowd of people while completely ignoring them and raising one hand. She then mutters, I dont have time for this, and snaps her fingers once, sending a pulse of white throughout the room and the hallway connected to it. And as if the Fracture never happened, the energy I sense from the Class II Fracture that opened up on top of us vanishes along with the shield.
My eyes widen in shock at that, and the other Guardians filling the room all immediately begin whispering about her obvious display of power.
She just straight up destroyed a Class II core by snapping her fingers seconds after it openedÑøv€lRapture marked the initial hosting of this chapter on Ñôv€lß¡n.
A white flash of light blinds everyone and I feel someones arms suddenly wrapping around me, making me feel a little uncomfortable. But not as uncomfortable as Id expected.
Then the light fades and I find the person hugging me to be White before she immediately steps back, keeping her hands on my shoulders.
I can tell you almost everything after this Fracture, she says, making my eyes widen slightly even if I had expected it from what shed told me before. I can also tell that shes hiding herself from everyone as she has that usual white layer of light glowing around her. I can even start helping you with training and fighting with you if you want. Anything. But only if you remain on Earth.
I blink at that, simply staring at her, unsure of what she meant by that.
Hmm. Okay. So if I have this right, from what Ive been told by you and White so far, Ill either end up being trained personally and helped by White after this, or Ill end up kidnapped to Tartarus. Do I have that right?
He hesitates before answering, Yes. You do.
And Im guessing since White would train me here, my father would train me on Tartarus.
Yeah Tar mutters, sounding vaguely defeated for some reason.
Okay.
Uh
Im not really sure how to take that.
Going to Tartarus sounds dangerous. Sounds like I will probably die. And I have no idea how I would be treated. Although I do admit it would be a hell of a lot easier to level up there, with the exception of getting catalysts to advance in Class which might be harder. Might not be though. Not like I know of any of the types of catalysts other than Fracture cores.
Overall though, I have the adoption to go to after this Demonic Assault. Not to mention that Ill finally have a real family. And I can still level up plenty fast here. Plus even if he is my father, I have never met him before. So I dont know what hes like beyond Whites word.
So Id rather stay on Earth with them. And my new friends.
Aww, Tar says, sounding happy for some reason, youre finally maturing emotionally!
I blink at that, almost forgetting to make a turn.
Shut up.
