Chapter 156: Bright yet empty
Jasmine was slowly getting closer to Lucian and discovering new types of feeling and emotions.
She had gotten closer to Lucian no doubt but Natasha's feeling were right now much more stronger, she would without a second thought put Lucian's life and safety above everyone's else and can destroy the world just to protect him.
The endless rage filling her head had completely overtaken her thought process and now she finally decided to stop holding back, if there is no Lucian then no one else deserve to be alive.
*BOOM*
The aura around Natasha's body alone was enough to shook the entire llp building, even Scarlett who was sitting some distance away fainted immediately even though she was at the 5th Phase of evolution.
Even Jasmine felt she might actually die if she don't give her best, she had seen first hand what Natasha is capable of, two decades ago among all the awakeners of Earth she was easily the strongest without a match.
Jasmine locked her gaze onto Natasha and moved Scarlett away from there using the frozen air, she knew that if they fought they would cause a great destruction, killing countless people but she would have to stop the Empress at any cost.
Natasha's eyes glowed with a greyish light as Fog crazily rushed towards her from all sides, even the 3rd phase Chasm close to them seemed to have dimmed a little under the strong suction force.
The intensity of Fog was so intense that it could easily suprass any 7th Phase Chasm and might even match the 8th Phase Chasm, her body slowly rose into air, everything around began to fell apart.
The walls broke, the cars nearby had turned into rubble and her aura began to affect all the people in a range of a few kilometres, while it just kept getting stronger.
Jasmine could have attacked now while she was in the middle of her transformation but that would backfire instead and she would be the one to receive all the damage so she could only wait.
In the distance, a young man wearing a dirty white robe was walking towards the area of the battle his black hair swaying in the air, he was only at the 1st Phase of evolution but because of a treasure on him he was not affected by the strong aura.
" Everything the master said is becoming true, it is as if she has seen the future. " The boy muttered as he leisurely continued to walk forward.
A layer of smoke materialised around Natasha's body and it kept getting bigger with each passing moment, the Fog in the air was almost sucked dry by her, so Fog from around the place was pulled with Natasha as the centre.
*RING* *RING*
The surrounding was full of noise yet silent at the same time, all of a sudden the sound of a mobile ringing echoed.
At first both Jasmine and Natasha did not paid any attention to it but then Natasha blinked her eyes as her mind became a little clear.
The bell ringing in her mobile right now was only set for Lucian, as she remembered this all the Fog from around her body dispersed immediately and she gently landed on the floor.
Without paying any attention to Jasmine or Scarlett, she took her mobile out and looked at the screen.
" I- It's him!! " Natasha picked the call and placed the mobile over her ear, waiting nervously to hear any sound from the other side.
" I am alive. "
Hearing these words, Natasha's eyes widened and the heart which seemed to have turned into a stone moments ago began to beat in a happy rhythm.
Without even looking Natasha turned around and began to walk away as she asked Lucian for his location and just like that she was gone.
"..." Jasmine was still standing there, her face looking as emotionless as ever but then her brows creased and as she stared in the distance.
With her hearing she had heard the call clearly too, she felt calm and relieved knowing that Lucian was safe but now there was something else that was troubling her, giving her an unusual headache as she mumbled:
" Why didn't he call me first but his mother? "
Then she decided to leave too, Jasmine had already moved Scarlett to a room on the floor above, so now there was no one near the ground floor of the building and the place had became completely quite.
After a few minute, the boy in the white robe finally arrived in front of the tall building, he looked around at all the destruction but couldn't find anyone around.
" This is strange, my master clearly told me: The two energies collide, bringing Chaos to the skies, tame them and you shall flourish. "
The young man repeated the lines from his teacher, he clearly understood the meaning behind those words but unlike what he expected there was nothing around.
" Maybe the timing is wrong or maybe master had some other meaning hidden in those words, anyway it's time I start building my strength. "
*CRIEEEK*
Just then a Xaru screeched and flew towards the protagonist, it had been hiding before because of Natasha's aura but it finally saw a prey.
*BANG*
Just when the Xaru was few steps away from the protagonist, a car fell from high up and smashed its head into the road the car had flown up because of Natasha's energy and was stuck to the building and only now did it fall.
With such a height it had built enough kinetic energy to destroy the Xaru's head, nothing was logical but who was there to question.
Of course the protagonist was still no match for this creature, he would have needed to escape with his life if they fought even with all the treasures that he posses currently.
" Oh, even though my master isn't here but her charms are still protecting me, haha I'm truly blessed by the heavens. "
The protagonist had two masters, one was an old man who taught him how to absorb the Fog on this planet, after bringing him to that cave and teaching him everything, he left and because of his old age he wouldn't survive for long.
While his female master taught him everything else and even gave him several treasures, then she left to gain more strength but the protagonist made a promise to one day meet her again in the future and then... who knows what fate holds.
" There are no clouds in the sky, so bright yet empty. " He muttered gazing up with a smile then he walked away.
