[OP: ]
[{ One was not wrong… there certainly are signs of blooming divinity present in this area. }]
[{ ’I’ is never wrong. }]
Voices… or more like, murmuring noises played in a dark backdrop of an unknown region as two distinct eyes watched over a waterscape.
[{ Though it is faint, the presence of this one seems to be old. It seems like a mythus of past has woken up… }]
The words that these distinct eyes were whispering to one another were cryptic. To those who knew original runes, this would be a [Lost language], the category of languages that were not entirely a ’language’ but fragnted pieces of codes that one has to put together to understand completely.
To converse in this lost language was the sa as to talk in a way that no one else could decipher.
But then, how can soone understand sothing that no one was supposed to understand?
[{ When one chases after the cause of an effect, they co across the trails left behind by the phenonon as well.
While not anyone can track the start and end of these phenona to squeeze out an understanding of it, those like ’I’ could do such trivial things with great ease. }]
There was soone other than the two eyes in the picture that observed them, that kept an eye on their movent. Soone who could hide their presence from even these beings, and soone who had a deep understanding of what they were talking about.
[{ One surely acknowledges one’s abilities… though, it would have been more comndable if one did not choose such a predictable place to reveal thy presence.
Now one has a stalker. }]
One of the eyes was of a distinct gray. In a silver backdrop that seed to represent the outline of the eye, the cornea and pupil were made of distinct shades of silver.
Though small, this certain eye possessed an uninterpretable wisdom within them. They seed like the eyes of so omniscient being, the eyes that had seen, experienced, and known it all.
[{ There is no need to worry about this stalker as even ’I’ had known about their presence from the beginning.
THEY cannot interfere with us even if they want to, thus there is no need to pay any attention to them. }]
The other eye accompanying the silver one seed like a red moon peeking through a blackout curtain… with a dark backdrop of smoke going around it, the deep, bloody red of the pupil shone mysteriously inside of the darkness.
Different from the eye that seed to contain wisdom, the red that looked in a certain direction at the comnt of the silver one seed to contain an endless curiosity.
Though, curiosity was the only thing that they seed to hold… there was also an endless, sinister joy within them. A desire to consu and fill an endlessly empty pit.
Both of the ’eyes’ were together, and what they held, their visible characteristics, did not indicate anything good…
[{ One’s helplessness at one’s own limitations prevents one from interfering with the world in various manners, though one wants to protect, help, and punish… one is bound by the very world it once used to hold dearest. }]
They were talking about soone… sothing that knew what these beings were planning, what their new sinister plan held, and, though THEY knew it all, there were limitations binding them to their position.
[{ Price of an imnse authority… is bound to be an equally imnse restriction. That is simply how the Mortal world works. }]
[{ How pitiful… to possess great powers, to hold great authorities, to hold the greatest knowledge beyond any Seer’s, and yet have no ability to use any of it when they truly want to. }]
The silver eye scoffed at the powerlessness of the being that they were looking towards, though, the eye then ignored the Presence that was now following them, and started searching for the source of the blooming divinity that they were primarily interested in.
[{ There. That place seems to be the source. }]
They pinpointed a location. And, their cosmic vision shifted to reveal a castle present on a hill, on a lone island, beside a fine lighthouse.
[{ Seems like they are experiencing the aftereffects of awakening divinity of their possessed elent. }]
[{ That is why one does not like the mortal shell. It has endless limitations, and despite its limitless potential, one cannot even use a fraction of it. }]
The eyes ignored everything around this castle.
The parents who worried about their children, the young swordsman with great potential, the female swordsman with even greater potential, the transient swordsn who had reached pinnacle of their mortal bodies, the elder mages possessing a universe of Mana inside of them, and the creatures that were present in this house.
For so reason, they were not able to see a certain room with two special girls, but they ignored it, attributing the blankness of the room with so kind of ancient concealnt technique that they were least interested in.
They did not care much about the boy and wyvern, they did not care much about the boy with the Okagi, and they did not care about the girl with a unique bloodline’s familiar.
The Oceanoid master piqued their interest, but it was not as much as the interest that the won with moon-like features, the rare pureblood, did.
Still, nothing was more interesting to them than the girl with shining pink eyes… the eyes that THEY both recognised instantly.
[{ The Sixth Calamity’s successor has finally appeared. }]
[{ After Twelve millennia… it seems like ’I’ will finally get to see sothing fun. }]
They recognised the eyes, they rembered who they belonged to, and with that, they also understood the kind of catalysts that this individual would need to reach Their full potential.
[{ Hmm… however, what is that being beside them? A foreign soul? }]
The red eye wondered when it observed the boy with ruby red eyes taking care of the target of their interest.
They wondered what this young looking boy possessing a strange ntal structure, and the power of the sun, as well as a complicated soul of foreign origin might be.
They were intrigued, they even tried to dig deeper into the ntal realm of this being, however, when they tried to do so, they encountered sothing even more strange.
[{ Hmmm? }]
There was sothing that blocked their path.
Or rather, it was more appropriate to say that there existed a wall between the mind of Their target, and Them.
[{ What is that…? A barrier? }]
[{ What does one an? }]
[{ Take a look at that strange thing. Look, it’s not part of his mind… it’s artificial. }]
The red eyes were confused for a mont.
They tried to look into the wall, they even tried to understand what this wall even was. And, since they were seeing the very subconscious part of this individual, they thought the mortal being would not notice them… there actually was no chance that they would notice them.
But, they were wrong.
[{ He noticed? …how? }]

The boy seed to have realised sothing was happening with him so he looked around. He tried looking around with his special eyes, and even dived into the astral realm to check for anything.
[{ One possesses a World treasure. A Soul armant. Perhaps, the Ego of the armant is strong enough to guide Them? }]
[{ But, in the first place, how does soone with no physical capabilities to wield a Soul armant possess one with an active ego strong enough to communicate with them consciously?
Besides, no ego can interfere with the mind directly and create a wall between the mind’s middle and deeper layers. }]
It confused the red eye, which ultimately made the greed hidden deep within them resurface. Now, it seed like they were smirking, though, there was no way of knowing their facial expressions since their actual bodies existed in a completely different realm.
[{ It seems like one’s also a successor and the barrier is so kind of authority given by One’s predecessor.
Though, it surely is fascinating how a foreign soul, possessing qualities to harness Origin energies, possessing an unforeseeable potential, with a strange familiar with no strings of fate attached, could also be affiliated with an Elder Divinity. }]
The silver eyes were now showing a similar kind of greed. Along with that though, there was concern within them.
[{ What the hell is that thing then…? Why do I know nothing about either of them? }]
The silver eyes seed to be wondering how the two would manage to get by without any proper guidance and how they might be a hindrance to Them in the near future.
They thought about eliminating them right now to prevent future problems however, before they did so, they perceived an unwanted presence.
[{ What’s that bastard doing here? }]
Accompanied by an owl possessing a third of the wisdom that the silver eyes seed to have, with silver hair fluttering with winds, with his perfectness radiating from his very presence… as well as with the blessings of a dozen filthy bastards lingering on him, he was one of the most unwanted beings to these Beings.
[{ Ah, so they are his students. }]
[{ Hmmm… no wonder THEY were watching over them. }]
Now, it all made sense to these two.
They now knew that both the strange beings that they were intrigued by, were in fact under the wings of the Headmaster.
[{ We cannot interfere directly. }]
It was now obvious to them. If soone like Him was involved with these children, it was going to cause a lot of trouble to not just them, but to their Grand plan as well.
[{ ’I’ can call so of the puppies to ss with them a little. They should know the kind of trouble that they might possibly face in the coming future. }]
They were not ’good’ beings. It was obvious by now…
[{ Both have to realise the extent of One’s powers. It would take more than a pet on the back… }]
The silver eyes started fading away.
[{ Agreed. Then, ’I’ will look for an appropriate opening before revealing our presence. }]
The black shadow around the red eyes also started fading as the greed within them beca even more prominent.
[{ They are precious… }]
They wanted these two new budding divinities. And, from the looks that they had, it seed like they would do anything to obtain them.
Even if they had to go against the Other Factions and get ahead of them in this race.
