"World is fair but people aren't"
*********************************************
Severus eyes bulged in awe.
"This....this is the sa symbol that was engraved on their forehead and wrists. What's with this symbol? Do you know anything about it?", Severus asked continuous questions.
One after another.
[This.....symbol is dangerous]
"What do you an by dangerous?"
[When that man beca powerful, several brutal things started happening in this world, and necromancy was foully used. The end results were disastrous of this practice. There were so secretive bunch of people that had these marks engraved on their forehead and wrists. Nobody knows who they were or from where did they ca. They were like shadows lurking in the night. It was a terrific group that was infamous for mass murder and killing. This wasn't simple killing but a total maniac one. They all were devoid of feelings and empathy. They were nothing but a weapon for mass killing. Rumors were spread that there was a mysterious man behind them. He was rumored to be very strong and intelligent. No one knows about him but there were speculations that this man and him were the sa man. I don't know whether it's true or not and to be honest, I don't care. It was all in the past but why does this symbol was engraved on Desella's parent's forehead? As far as I know, they all vanished after that man lost. So what is this? This is all becoming complicated?]
"Yeah, it is becoming but let's focus on one problem at a ti. If Desella's parents had those marks then it ans that her parents were working for that organization"
[You can never be sure Severus]
Severus contemplated for a while before continuing," they can be either a fellow supporter or victims but my instincts say that they weren't victims."
[Why so? Are your instincts trustworthy?]
Severus"..."
"We will see whether they are useful or not. Shush....let continue my story"
[Okay go ahead]
"Desella was lost after her parent's death. Her relatives and friends, they all started avoiding and blaming her. That little kid suffered blaming for a week before breaking down."
[Poor kid]
"Mmm...Noworry do you rember that pond?"
[How can I forget such a beautiful pond?]
"That pond was the sa place where she sobbed after breaking down"
Noworry"...."
"She was so much into her grief that she didn't notice approaching footsteps"
************************
Past-
"Sob sob sob"
"uwuuuuu.....mom.....dad...sister"
"I didn't kill you. Co back, please co back and tell everyone that I didn't kill you"
"uvuuuuuuuuuu"
A tall man approached Desella as his shadow fell on her.
He was wearing a black overcoat and black pants. He had a grey muffler over his coat and his face was covered with a muffler. The long coat which he wore had a big cap attached to it and when the man covered his head with his cap only so part of his eyes and chin remained visible. He had a sharp cheekbone and red lips. The redness in his lips was a sharp contrast to his fair face. It looked as if he was an ice prince. His silver locks were visible as his hair was too long. With fringes covering the rest of his face.
"Desella. What are you doing here, all alone?". A sweet but manly voice reverberated in the air.
Desella quivered when she heard the sound and instantly jerked her head to see. When she saw the man, her already teary eyes started pouring. She started sobbing heavily.
The man kept quiet after seeing her sobbing so hard. After soti when he couldn't withstand her more as he gently sat beside her and started patting her head.
"There, there Desella. Why are you crying so much? It's so cold here, you should just dry your tears and go back to your ho otherwise you would catch a cold"
"I....I.....have no ho. My parents are murdered and everyone has turned their backs on . I don't know where should I go? What should I do? My life feels empty. There is nothing in this world for . No one wants . Everyone thinks that I am so kind of monster who killed her parents and her sister but I swear I didn't. I didn't ....uwu.....", Desella again started crying towards the end of the sentence.
"Aye kiddo, listen here. The world isn't bad but people are. They are nothing but just a bunch of rats who know nothing and just pester everyone. I know it's hard for you but you are gifted with life and you shouldn't waste it. To live a life without a goal is just a waste of blessing. "
"But...but....I don't know what to do? I am all alone in this big world, big brother"
"Everyone walks alone kiddo. It's nothing new. People need to find their goal otherwise the goal gets angry and hides itself for eternity. Do you understand?", the man asked quietly.
Although she didn't understand what he was saying, she roughly got the idea and thus nodded her head.
"So what did you decide?"
Desella was at loss for words. What could she even say?"
"I don't know"
"Sigh if you don't know then try to find it out", the man stood up and started walking away.
Desella beca flustered. After her parents and her sister's died, there was no one who had asked about her. When she saw him leaving she felt like she is losing sothing thus she scread loudly" big brother wait. I think I have decided what I would be doing"
The man's footsteps stopped but he didn't turn back.
With a devilish grin on his face, he asked, "Oh is it so? Care to tell what you have decided?"
Desella gritted her teeth and spoke, "I am going to continue my study and in the future. I will study necromancy and defense"
"And may I ask why so?". This ti the man turned back and with a poker face as he scanned Desella.
Desella was scared out of her wits and when she saw his gaze. It was as if he can see through her.
Desella stuttered
"I...I...want to study necromancy so I can find out the real murderer of my family. I want to take revenge for my family, for my despair, for my sorry state. I swore I will brutally mutilate him and rip his skin once at a ti so he can have a taste of his own dicine"
Desella eyes showed madness. It was as if she was possessed.
"Nice. Finally, you ca to a realization. I can help you if you want to", the man generously offered.
Desella hesitated. It was enough for her that he offered so words of encouragent but asking for more, felt greedy to her.
The man saw through and hesitated but didn't make any efforts to help her.
"Just a friendly advice- You don't lock your doors when opportunities knock Desella. The rest is your wish. It's better if you give an answer sooner because I am leaving this place today"
Desella beca flustered. It was one thing to not take his help but it was another to say, forever goodbye to him. She was not strong enough to bid him goodbye.
In her desperation, she agreed to his help.
"Big brother I agree with your help. Tell what should I do?"
The man smiled in satisfaction and patted her head.
"You are a good girl Desella. Don't worry, your big brother will take care of you. For the ti being, just collect all the money you can from your household and et here again at night. Okay?"
"Yes big-brother"
The little desella was truly dumb.
