"You wanna know kid?" he asked as he stopped trying to dodge my attack and started parrying them as much as he could without really overpowering .
"Sure I do," I asked as I felt like I was on cloud nine…
"Well… you sure did accept yourself fast for soone who was acting all hopeless just monts ago," he spoke and I replied,
"Man I have been f*cked by life so many tis that winning a few tis made feel good… all those things started flooding back all at once… I an like really… Everyone is alive and they will be alive till the very end…. I will make sure of it!!! How aweso is that??!!!"
He chuckled a little as he spoke again,"for soone who has lived a life of his own, you sure are acting like a young teenager."
"We are all young in our hearts, old n. Don't you already know that?" I spoke cheekily as I continued attacking him again and again, and rather than getting annoyed at he started laughing before he spoke,
"Well… I guess, that is true."
"All right enough about that. Tell old man, was it really blocked? And more importantly, do you have any idea about who could have done it… though I believe I think I already know who did it but still won't hurt to ask your opinion," I spoke as I saw him attacking this ti, and I began dodging his attacks now setting myself in a defensive stance.
"Firstly, yeah your emotion was really locked and no, you are wrong. That girl, Lucia, wasn't capable of doing that. It was soone else… If I am not wrong, it was not done to harm you but to protect you because there was no hostility in that spell that I found," he said, making a pondering expression as he attacked again.
"Huh? It wasn't Lucia? Then… who could have hard … or protected … Wait! Wait! Wait! You are confusing , old man! Explain what you just said in words that I can understand," I was kind of taken aback with what he just spoke.
"Well… skipping that, it's not just your love that was locked but three other emotions that had been locked," he spoke as he looked at with a pondering expression as if he was trying to recall the information.
"Oi! Oi! Oi! Stop skipping important stuff. What are you even on about? And more emotions locked? Unlock them please… though which emotions are we talking about?" I spoke with slight interest and he answered,
"Fear. Sadness. And if I rember correctly, it was Empathy that was locked."
I looked at him a bit confused before I asked,"wasn't I just a free spirit that lacked all negative emotions and didn't give a f*ck about what others feel? As for love… I guess I just considered myself unlucky and the fact that I didn't feel like deserving it?"
Hmmm… now that I think about it, I really never felt sad or feared anyone… though about Lucia….
"If you are wondering why you had your emotions uplifted with Lucia then that was because she used Charm Magic on you… not like using that charm to make you feel love, sadness and other emotions but to temporarily unlock those emotions. That was the reason you felt closer to her than to others. With her Charm Magic, being around her made you feel your real emotions and not just like an empty doll. The whole reason, why you fell so deeply in love with her," he spoke as he smiled at before hitting again
'So she was that powerful… Did she know about my emotions being locked?' I pondered before speaking,
"So, what are you waiting for? Please unlock them."
I spoke and he sighed before attacking faster than before, while taking a deep breath and stopped breathing all together to boost my concentration. While normally, I could have lasted for about 30 minutes or so holding my breath, but now that I had Breath Fragnt,
I can go on forever.
"YOU!!!" He was shocked beyond belief as he looked at and I began attacking him faster and faster…. Though this is my limit right now. Anymore and I will need to play so sacrificial cards.
"You have yet another Fragnt.… that too of a completely different Guardian?!!!" His eyes were still shocked as he stopped montarily giving a chance to attack him but before I could reach him, he snapped out of his stupor and parried my attack before kicking away.
"Firstly, stop you stinky brat! Tell how many Fragnts do you hold and how the heck did you end up gaining so many Fragnts… no, that's not important, how the heck can you even use so many Fragnts?" It was his turn to be confused and I smirked at him as I spoke with a grin forming on my face,
"Wanna know?"
Realising that I wasn't going to tell him, he made an annoyed expression before sighing really loudly.
Then I saw the storm calming down slowly and slowly, while that old man's blade also vanished from his hand. He looked at with a really keen look as if he was trying to read but after a while he made a giving up expression before he moved towards and…
-POW!!!!
He hit in the head really hard with an annoyed expression before speaking,"you deserve this one, you stinky brat."
"I have a few questions, old man… it feels like you know a lot about -" I was speaking but he spoke,
"You are going to face a lot of choices in the future, kid. I could only pray that you succeed in whatever you are trying to do… man I thought I knew everything but to think 'He' outplayed even still… I can figure out why he was chuckling back then… that bastard!!!"
He then sighed before looking at and speaking,"try to use your Fragnt from now on much more often. It is a really powerful asset but don't over do it, okay? Also, soone is waiting for you at floor 99. Can you pass a ssage of mine to her?"
And he spoke sothing before I vanished from there… without getting a single f*cking answers out of him!!
