Chapter 6 - CHAPTER 6

" I can take care of her and myself. We also don't need your help since I'm definitely sure she might be a magician", Felix retorts " I can protect my self and her. I'm a magician too. You just want to ruin our alone time.", He says and looks at Jedi whose face has become so red like a tomato.

"How are you sure he is a magician. You shouldn't take any risk. I don't even care about you. But the marchioness has only her daughter so I won't risk her life." He says to Felix. Felix turns angry. "What do you mean by th..."Please it's getting late. We have to go. And Its being over an hour since I left the lady"

Jedi cuts them off. Felix glares at Ellian for a few seconds, sighs and turns to Jedi, "Yes let's go", Felix says as he leads. Nathan shakes his head as they follow Felix.

Falle on the other hand has stayed in the purity lake for over an hour enjoying herself. "When was the last time I got time to go for swimming? Hmm..almost twelve years", she sighs and swim toward the river bank. "Wow", she exclaims as she sees the lake shines very clear. "It's beautiful. Maybe thats why it's called purity lake. Is the place very far. I shouldn't have made her go and come back. She is a child. She will be exhausted by going back and forth"

she stands there for sometime waiting for Jedi. Then she she bends to take her gown lying on the rock and wears it. " At least I should cover myself waiting ", she says as she wears it. She wrings her wet hair of water. She grows worried after she finished with her hair and didn't see Jedi coming.

"Is the tower really far from here? In the game,employees stayed in the tower. I should have declined her offer and told her to go home" She sits on the rock. "Come to think of it, the device disappeared at some point and i didn't notice" as soon as she said that, it appears in front of her... floating. "I forgot for a moment this is a magical world...huh * she sighs* ...hey magical tablet, when can I go home to Earth 1!",she says frustrated.

A message appears after she asked. "SYSTEM MALFUNCTION. REPAIR IS STARTING: 72 Hours" She blinks twice in disbelief. "Are you kidding me. You couldn't start repairing when it started" , she shouts.

"Are you okay?", she hears the voice of Jedi. "Jedi", she turns to see Jedi hurrying forward. "Are you okay, my lady? I heard your shout" , she asks concern. "I'm fine. You shouldn't have come back. It's getting late." "Don't worry, I came with some friends."

Falle turns to check behind Jedi. She sees four men, handsome and tall making her flush with shyness. "They are handsome." She says making Jedi laugh as she turns to them. The men stands in place mesmerised by Falle's beauty. Ellian and Nathan moves forward to where the girls were. Cody came down to earth immediately after and slaps Felix arms waking him up from his dreamy look. "She's pretty as Jedi said. But not as pretty as Jedi" he whispers the last part.

They walked close to them. Jedi stands up making Falle also stand "Erm.. what's your name" Jedi whispers to Falle. "Falle", she whispers back with a smile catching all of them of guard. Jedi nods. "Your highness, Sir Roban, General Nathan, Captain Cody, this is Falle. She's from a far away land." Falle bows slightly, "Greetings, I'm Falle" ( so this is the games lead who kills without batting his eyes. The description didn't do him any justice and his friends), she thought.

The men heard a smooth, confident voice and were at a loss for words staring blindly. "What's the name of your kingdom" Ellian asks suspecting her. She sweats nor knowing what to say. "Erm...I.. it's a far away place", she stammers. "Name. I won't ask again", he says as he held his sword to her neck. The others also suspects her.

Felix hurriedly dragged back Jedi to his side as he draws out his essence. (Oh God. At this rate I might die. Think Falle. Think) "I'm from Alsia. Near the northern border" "Alsia? And what are you doing here" "here.. Oh! Actually I come from a long line of magic bearers. You see not everyone gets magic. I haven't fully grasp my essence ability that's how I got here. So to speak well, my magic brought me here."

She said whatever that came to her mind. "How would we know you are telling the truth and if if its your magic, you can find a way to go back. So what are you waiting for", Ellian asks still on guard. "Actually, I'm tired I guess because I'm unable to use it" she says as she shivers. Ellian seeing this looks at her for a whiles then turns to Felix. "Do you detect any black magic there" he asks Felix. "I don't detect from here but you can never know."

He says and move to Falle. Ellian withdraws his sword but didn't sheath it. "Don't make any smart move. We still don't trust you." Felix says making Falle nods. Felix touches her forehead trying to test her magic. After close to a minute he retracts his hands. "No black magic." He says with a normal expression but his eyes looks alarmed and shocked which he concealed immediately but not before Ellian catches it. Felix saw him looking at him so he gestures with his eyes to stay quiet
