Chapter 27: Chapter 24

Maybe because Yuna days have been too peaceful, too peaceful that the law of transmigration seem to not able to tolerate her idleness that she started to hear voices inside her head.

[Am I really the devil?]

[….a spawned of demon….]

[I don't asked to be born either…]

[…Why? I don't mean it!]

[… Why did they hate me?]

[Why is no one on my side?]

Yuna felt like going crazy, every night, she would hear a voice and she was too scared to even make a sound, mistakenly answering the voice again and she disappearing and teleporting somewhere dangerous.

Her sleeping quality dropped sharply such that dark circles formed around her eyes and she became a human version panda. Ó⁠╭⁠╮⁠Ò

"Little Yu, are you staying up late these days? its' not good staying up late for children your age" Grandpa Orion advised gently.

'I would also like to sleep grandpa!'

"Umm…." Yuna grunt in reply.

Grandpa Orion looked worried, wanting to say more but don't want to sound it out as if nagging and scolding her. The doting grandfather have not once scold Yuna. His only family member and he cherished her dearly.

Seeing the worried look, Yuna felt guilty but she didn't like sharing her problem especially towards family. Even if he knew, he can't help and it will just add more to his worry.

Thankfully, Austin takes an escort job to another nearby town for a small merchant. If he sees Yuna haggard expression, he will persistently try to get an explanation from her. Yuna shudder at such thought.

She has never seen someone as persistence and determined as him.

Is persistency and unwavering determination one of the perks of a main character? Yuna seriously thought that it must be.

Honestly, she somehow regrets getting involves with him.

He has almost….almost let her spill about the plant that adorns her right hand. If not because she is someone who has strong perseverance and a master at deflecting, then he will surely succeed in extracting information on the plant that grow on her hand.

She has pine all blames on her master and that the flower is just a magic protection artefact that looks like it grown on her palm.

'Terrifying shit'

She really hates sharing her problems with other and likes to keep things to herself.

Clicking her tongue, Yuna follow her grandfather out to wait the shop with him and when night time arrive, with a fearful heart, Yuna climb on her bed and exhaled a breath— trembling.

[I hate light…]

[Why must it be me?]

Again, late in the night, Yuna open her eyes; bloodshot.

'Oh my Goddd….here it comes again!'

Yuna silently listen to the voice not daring to make a sound.

[I didn't mean to do it!]

[…just because I am born with darkness, the kindness can be so easily taken away!]

[If the world cannot tolerate my existence... I won't allow it to exist peacefully either]

'Holy shit! That sound like the beginning of the great blackening! My God!'

Yuna heart jolt the more she listens to the voice. It's the sound of someone slowly morphing into evil.

"I—" Yuna clamp her mouth tightly. Stupid mouth, don't!

Her reader instinct kick-in almost letting out a word of soothing to the wounded voice! Now is not time to be a holy mother! Its' fine if she is in the comfort of modern world and that there will be no repercussion if she placates a wounded child; cue a fictional character through phone screen-- now is different. Her every action has consequences that she could not afford!

[To the world that abandon me….I….will….]

Sigh….

'Ah mannn….Fuck this shit'

Closing her eyes, Yuna let out a rueful sigh.

"For my peace of mind…"

"I will stand by you, I accept you"

The stone finally getting the word it was waiting for emit a bright light and Yuna disappear from her place.

She seems to have some understanding on how the stone work.

The stone has not brings her anything good ever since she first get in contact with it. Indeed, a thing of the villain is never something good.

….

The sun has not set yet on the place she found herself in, there are dense trees beside the roadside and the road does not seem to be a place where pedestrian often flocks.

Yuna hear a faint breathing behind a tree, hiding someone behind it.

It was her target.

Approaching it, Yuna found a burnt body, the body breathing laboriously and seem to be in a comatose state; a puddle of blood beneath him.

Yuna pupils shake and her lips tremble at the horrifying sight. She thought her mentality improved a lot, turn out, it's not.

Slowly and cautiously approaching, she sat beside the burnt body. The mutated moonlit orchid as if reacting to her hidden thought elongate and wrap the burnt body from head to toe, flattening itself.

Once it's done wrapping up, green glowing dust like particles emit from the flattened roots.

This was a healing property that Yuna discovered. It was when she saw Austin coming back heavily injured from his exchanging blows with beast— At that time, she thought it will be good to have something that could cure the injuries and the moonlit orchid act up, wrapping Austin on the injured part and healing him.

It was also at that time when she was interrogated about the origin of the flower and how it takes roots in her arm.

In the end he said "Your master is too careless to let you take care of this"

He knows the origin of the flower after all.

Yuna also thought his word is quite plausible but she cannot discredit her master openly and also still has to maintain her façade of not understanding in what kind of way the moonlit orchid mutate and how dangerous it was, that's the main point, defending her master is just an excuse.

Sigh…..once a person lie, it started piling up one after another; a lie backing up another lie.

The dust particles like green light shone for a long time before it dims.

Yuna decisively cut off the vines and let it wrap the youth.

Once the flower and her merge properly, it has already become part of her body and she could easily control it or even chop it off effortlessly unlike before where neither can she cut with a knife nor burnt it.

Channelling wind energy, Yuna lift up the burnt person who was still unconscious. The bloody smell might attract beasts so it's better to leave the place and find a safe place.

A survival knowledge gain from reading novels.

She has to wait for the person to wake up first before she can understand the current situation. She just blindly came here and she is sure that she will be teleported back so all she has to do is just understanding on why she was called.

It will also make her understand the dimension stone a little bit.

There is finally some clue she can get a hand on, since that is the case, she will pursue it…..haha.

As always, she is too good at making excuses.

Yuna walk along the forest, the sky has already darkened while healing the burnt person. Luckily, Yuna found a cave— there are scattered dry woods and dirty pots. It seems to be a place where hunters takes a rest when going for hunting in the forest.

Yuna place the person gently on the ground and started building a fire.

She don't know how long she will stay here and when she will be transported back. She belatedly regrets coming here hastily without making ample preparation.

What if she didn't go back in the morning? She will scare her grandfather a lot.

She has been short-sighted.

Next time, she has to prepare everything in advance if she hears a voice again.

Let's hope that she will be able to go back before her grandfather found her missing and freak out.
