"All of that happened. Shaska ca she did catch us, she did attack all of us... I tried to runaway." This mory didn’t have any explicit trace of Sera... but the feeling was there, his head hanging of his neck with a single nerve intact before he lost all conscience.
The rest of all blurry there was no words before his eyes opened to him back into the flow of ti. The mory after his death of convoluted and blurry, the vision of two figures were leaking in and out of this mory. He didn’t identify one of them however the latter was familiar to him.
It was Sera with darkness leaking out of her eyes. She conjured powers and terror in that look and lastly when said the words, "That makes the five of us." after ’Deus Ex Machina’ was activated.
"I died... I definitely died then and there. Then how is it that I live? If the what the servant said was true, the people that died during that ti have remained so after the ti was reversed. How did I survive?"
Silver’s mind was shut off, Lisa wasn’t dead either. Did Sera had so sort of ability to reverse ti and bring back the dead according to her choice. "What is going on?"
There were other thing to haunt him, but this was the work of the devil. "She had the powers of the other world. To return back in ti, undoing the events of the past after they happened. "
Silver realised that the outsider that should be feared was Sera not him. What terrified him more of the belief she was able to do it subconsciously. " She did not have mories of the reversed ti yesterday morning. Neither did Lisa nor Shaska have any recollections otherwise they must have ntioned."
Another tangent presented itself about the limits and control of Sera’s ability. "She did ntion that she feeling tired yesterday. Was she testing ?" There was too much speculation about her abilities.
"Maybe it was a skill just like mine."
There was any possibility that there was another entity coexisting inside Sera’s mind or body which could have controlled her when she knocked by Shaska. Once the work was done the entity went silent again.
"I wish I could talk it out with Sera but if that entity actually took for a threat then there will be consequences."
The most stagnant fact that stood upright among all she had reversed ti, and the few unlucky who died during the ti that was called back remained all dead besides Silver and Lisa.
Silver walked up to a door and pushing it aside was Sera how was sleeping like any day hugging her pillow tight in her white bedsheet. On a normal day, Silver would have smiled seeing her and it would have made his day brighter.
"If I try to hurt her, I am sure the entity will reverse ti once again."
Turned out there was nothing he could do. After a hour of deliberation the best further step Silver was able to take was eat his breakfast, his eyes turned away every ti he saw the clock.
"I need to stay with her. She can’t be left alone like this, she is too powerful to left alone."
Silver wanted to start his journey thinking that he could overturn the fate of the world, however within a span of a month the world had slamd him with humans and monsters beyond comprehension.
The difference in power exceedingly mightier for him to catch up. In speed, Shaska caught up to him before he even knew that she was chasing him, her upper cut blew his head even when he had concentrated all his power to protect himself. The existence of powerful being like rcy, Alsana, Sera... all the outer warlords that have yet to reveal their faces and powers.
"I can’t be a saviour in this world. I would never be soone this place will be rember, just a outsider." He told himself.
The outsider wasn’t a title he realised. It was a stamp, which declared him a prey to the hunter out in the wild. Shaska could co to him at any mont, he shouldn’t have acted the way he did.
"Does it matter? Everything will return to how it was." He said it loud. For a mont, his heart raced fear, his throat dried and his nerves tightened. The water in the glass he was holding shaked a bit.
Silver set aside his plates, his stomach didn’t growl for food. He thought long and hard for what could be his next move, what could he do? He got up and entered open Sera’s room, lying right beside her.
The look on the face was innocent and clear.
Sera, the daughter of the strongest serpent of the world, a traveller of the multiple worlds, host of a entity or herself with the ability reverse ti, a mind way mature for her age (look wise at least, she might centuries older than him), kind and with a hint of royalty inside her.
"It’s just not fair with how much power and importance is given to those who don’t desire it?" he caressed his hand over her hair and laid on the bed for a while, weightings his options.
"Sera is not coming I can take care of. She is not soone I can handle the responsibility off. I need soone to do this... Lisa can’t handle this. Who else can I trust?"
Then Silver had the perfect plan to manage everything and for all things to fall at their places.
He leapt up from the bed and ran towards his room to find so ink and paper. And, he began jotting down sothing on the paper trying to hide from the all light after he was done writing on the paper.
He rushed to his room, packed all the things he need to carry with him. Then, he opened the main room’s window. The cool breeze caressed by his cheek, in the dim light of dawn the city left a lot more peaceful and calm. The large black castle at the centre of the city which stood seed heavenly with room lighting at top of it’s wall.
Like a bee hive of light shining in the distance, Silver took a second to appreciate everything that this city was, but now it was ti for a change of pace and his departure.
"Shaska, the all eyeing warlord. I invite you to have a conversation . Co right now."
