"I'm surprised."
Those simple two words echoed throughout the empty void and rang in my ears as a language I had heard in a long ti resonated with .
"You've successfully defeated that trial I set forth to test one's willpower. Therefore I will grant you the ability to wield my full power and I will free all those who ca before you."
Once the voice finished speaking the abyss began to crumble anyway and light filled the darkness for the first ti.
While the world was deteriorating my soul began to rge back with my body as my senses slowly returned.
Eventually, the world of black beca that of glorious white and I knew I would awaken at any second.
During this ti I regained near complete control of my body. So I decided to take charge and bend the rules in my favor.
"Stop."
My voice which I had long forgotten existed reverberated through the white lands.
As soon as I spoke up the fading realm halted in place. It was only a second away from disappearing into true nothingness as there would never be another trial yet I forced it to stop.
Aether and mana weaved around my body and spread outward to create a small pocket where the world could keep existing.
anwhile all around the small space, everything turned white.
It was then that I finally got so recognition from the being that put through such a tasteless tribute.
"What do you think you are doing?!"
For the first ti since I t the voice, it finally exclaid with so emotion behind its words.
I smiled brightly to match the outside glow while I began to move about in the pocket still in a different world.
My body felt extrely weird as I hadn't had one for so long and the fact that I wasn't back in the real world caused so delay and sluggishness in my actions.
"We haven't had a proper conversation yet. Did you think that after I completed what you wanted of I wouldn't ask for sothing in return?"
Although I clearly stated my purpose for prolonging my stay the voice seed far more concerned with returning as soon as possible.
"How can you do such a thing? Creating a new world within my world is impossible! This is my domain, you need to leave!"
I didn't have ti for soone or sothing that couldn't keep up.
"Impossibilities serve to be broken."
"Impudence!"
"Enough."
Cutting the voice back from arguing I released all the Aether I could, to break away at the white nothingness that swallowed the black.
While the Aether crept into the white I pulled on my power to find the mastermind.
Doing this didn't take long as the mont 'it' felt sothing off 'it' went to investigate and that's the mont I took action.
'Gotcha.'
As soon as 'it' arrived before the wisp of Aether I released, I had the Aether take form as a second bubble.
This other bubble captured 'it' within the Aether which served as a prison where if 'it' tried to escape by making contact with the Aether 'it' would be gravely wounded.
Once I knew I had it locked away I pulled back the trace of Aether from within the white back into the small space I created.
After the bubble entered my space I had the Aether fade away to expose the mastermind behind the trial.
This caused the bubble to completely vanish and what stood before was nothing like I could have ever predicted.
Laying on the ground was a beautiful girl, one that I couldn't even begin to describe with words.
She had long, flowing hair the color of white to match the outside realm and purple eyes that sparkled like diamonds in the sun.
Her skin looked as smooth as silk and seed to glow with an inner light.
She was tall and slender, with curves in all the right places, and a perfect representative of a goddess.
Her sheer presence was both srizing and enchanting enough to completely break my train of thought.
She was truly the envy of models everywhere and incomparable to any person who I'd once thought to be flawless.
But what truly set her apart were the black angel wings that adorned her back. They were black in color to contrast her snow-white hair.
The wings were feathered as they exponentially added to her overall perfection.
Yet that wasn't enough as if trying to eternally captivate my heart the girl was… naked.
Fortunately or unfortunately her most precious parts were censored in my eyes.
I didn't know if I would be able to recover or ever look at another female the sa if I could see her entirely so I was thankful that not everything was revealed.
Though it worried that sothing was strong enough to resist Aether and manipulate my vision.
However, I saw more than enough for my imagination to fill in the blanks and end any chance of having a real relationship as the goddess was the only thing I could think about.
Protecting myself from the chance of being bewitched I turned myself around and closed my eyes.
Yet even then I couldn't get her figure out of my mind and behind my closed eyelids I could still see her image as if it was engraved into .
I had accounted for many things during my ti alone but one thing I didn't take into consideration was the embodint of perfection appearing.
But I wouldn't lose so easily therefore I cald my rapidly beating heart, thought sad thoughts, and attempted to numb my body of emotion before turning back around to face 'it.'
Looking at the angel on the ground which had yet to try to free itself my mind wavered but I held strong and started asking so of the questions I'd been preparing.
"Are you… Nightfall?"
Hearing its na ntioned, the being raised its head to look directly into my eyes.
At that mont I practically lost all hope when looking into its eyes. I beca hypnotized as the two of us searched for deeper aning.
Behind her clear beautiful sparkling eyes, I couldn't sense any emotion. It was as if I was looking at a doll.
Wanting to understand more I held myself together and continued making eye contact searching for any proof that the creature wasn't beyond repair.
Finally, deeply hidden in the depths of her locked-away feelings I could see a slight spark.
I had no idea what it ant or represented but being that there was still sothing remaining of its soul I knew I could figure it out.
Then as if we both found the secrets that we were so desperately trying to hide, the two of us broke contact at the sa ti.
Then 'it' spoke:
"I am."
As another part of the girl was revealed to its sweet lodious voice threatened to break down all the walls I set up.
I shiver ran down my back from the sweet, pure, soothing, peaceful, and angelic voice.
I could only nod in response as I didn't trust myself to be able to talk back without choking over my words.
The girl who was still laying on the floor raised herself up showing even more of her body which had been previously covered by her silver hair.
'Fuck.'
My mind was truly scrambled.
"Why haven't you left?"
The voice I once thought to be unholy in nature and empty in aning was now crisp, clear, and without harshness in tone.
It was a complete change that I also wasn't prepared for. I expected so monstrosity abomination to be the owner, not so delicate broken girl.
Clearing my throat I whispered:
"I had so questions."
The girl tilted her head.
"Then ask them and please leave once I've satisfied your curiosity."
Understanding that she didn't want to stay and also realizing that I was quickly running out of Aether to supply the safe space I crouched down to her level and began asking away.
