"Liam?" Airi calls out.
"Sorry I just got a little lost in my thoughts for a second there," I respond.
"I just want to make sure you are paying attention since Alia asked what’s next," Airi says with a calm tone in her voice.
Honestly I didn’t know what to expect next myself since a lot happened today. It makes wonder how hectic the days will get from here.
Airi took out that hybrid zierel completely this ti so I’m sure that won’t sit well with the other ones like him.
"I’m listening so what are we going to do now?" I ask with a curious tone.
"I will finish clearing the remaining zierel around here while you two start to head out of the city," Airi answers, a smile forming on her face.
"Who said I am just going to tag along again?" Alia questions.
"You could benefit from leaving the city as well," Airi answers without wasting a second.
"I definitely need a few days to get back my strength again," I speak up.
Airi turns back towards , a smile still on her face.
"That is fine. I don’t want anything bad to happen to either of you," Airi responds with care in her voice.
I look towards Alia and then back to Airi.
"That works for , at least for now," I say softly.
After that I got up and went back to my room to get so rest while Airi goes over so stuff with Alia. She’s probably going to try to win her over a bit more.
It feels nice to be back in my room.
I walk over to my bed to get so rest for awhile until I recover from everything.
The thought of leaving the city without Airi is kind of weird to think about. She saved my life from that hybrid so I don’t know what will happen if sothing similar occurs.
I also don’t really know what could be outside of the city at this point when the whole world is ssed up.
There’s really no benefit to it... Especially if you think about it. Unless stronger people are out there waiting, that could be my only guess.
"You want to wipe out the zierel... Obviously you’d need to leave the city as well," She speaks up.
"I didn’t think about it like that for so reason," I reply quietly.
"Wiping out the hybrids outside of the city will give you a better chance at cleansing the world," She says with a serious tone.
Killing hybrids is going to take a lot more strength and speed than I currently have at the mont. I’ll have to figure out this power a bit faster than I’ve been.
As the final thought passes by I begin to doze off, everything disappears around .
For the first ti in awhile I don’t have any nightmares and wake up peacefully. The movent in my arm is the only thing I can notice right now.
"Your arm really is interesting to watch move around," A voice says softly.
I jump up as I realize that Alia is sitting at the side of my bed hunched over.
"W-What the hell?!" I reply while catching my breath.
I don’t think I’ve been scared in quite so ti so this definitely caught off guard. I didn’t even notice her presence there which is the strangest part about it.
"I ca in to check on you since we need to decide if we’re going to leave or not," Alia says while standing up.
"I thought you didn’t know if you wanted to go in the first place," I respond while running a hand through my hair.
"Killing zierel in other parts of the world is definitely going to make a difference. I’d like to live in a world where I don’t have to deal with monsters all the ti," Alia says with a soft tone.
I stand up from my bed and look down at my arm.
"A world free from zierel is definitely the goal," I reply with a serious tone.
"What about the infection in your arm?" Alia asks with curiosity in her voice.
"If I don’t find a way to deal with it, I’ll just need to die as well," I answer without any hesitation in my voice.
She walks out of my room after hearing my answer.
I use that as my opportunity to get so clothes on since I need to head out there afterwards. It takes a mont but I manage to find another outfit to wear.
Most of the outfits are similar to what I usually wear anyway.
But as I exit my room I can see Alia waiting for , she’s just leaning up against a wall with her arms crossed.
"If we’re going to be traveling together it is probably better off that I get to know you better," Alia says with a casual tone.
"We’ll definitely have plenty of ti to do that," I respond before walking past her.
Originally I didn’t want to have anyone by my side... Yet now I have Airi and Alia who are by my side in this endeavor. Not sothing I want by any ans.
People will die by my side.
That is just the way it goes and that is exactly why it is better for to be alone.
We walk out into the main room where Airi is sitting down reading sothing, so sort of book. A lantern also sits at her side as she waits for the two of us.
The strange feeling of soone watching is also back... weird timing for that to return.
Regardless I take a seat across from Airi, ready to hear what she has to say. Alia takes a seat right next to .
Alia originally said we have to give Airi our decision today. I don’t think I’m ready to decide on it yet, especially when I haven’t gotten a lot of rest.
