The Search for Freedom

As what others said, "to believe without proof is idiotic." It made me think deeply, but I didn't know what to believe. Many things were messing with my mind. It would simply bother me, and there was a chance that I would be unable to concentrate on the task at hand. Therefore, the best thing to do was to forget everything and do well what I was doing.

Those bothersome things needed to be put aside, for they couldn't help me solve my problem. There was nothing more important for me than finding the third person who was destined to fight me. That was exactly what I'm doing. We eventually found the third person. He was a man, but not an ordinary man. I had been observing him before I would make a move so that I would know how to drop him down. He seemed to be powerful too, so I didn't charge at him headlong, for my life would be jeopardized. I wanted to know if he was powerful than me, though it was difficult because even the power of my vision wouldn't show me anything about him.

We were in a place where there was no many houses, but an endless road. A few houses could be seen, and they seemed to be abandoned to the weeds that were growing around them; there might no electricity too. The third person who was destined to fight me was living there, in the house standing by the roadside. Perhaps he was alone in his house because we observed that there was nobody coming in and out of that house except for him.

"Why won't you attack that man instead of wasting your time observing him?" Alicia asked. "He's not that powerful at all, and there's no one else here: nothing wrong may happen because your beautiful mentor is here." "Shhh, before we attack, we must get to know him well, because he might be more powerful than you," I replied.

"You should get closer and observe what he can do. There's nothing to worry about, because he can't even see you because you're already a spirit. Then kill him if you want, so that I can't stain my hands with blood," I continued.

"You!" Alicia barked. "You are already able to rely on me. I'm reminding you that you cannot get rid of the curse if you will not be the one to kill the one hundred people who were destined to fight you. So don't make it longer and don't let others touch your destined enemies. You should do it yourself, as you are the one who needs them not others."

"I know, I know that. I want to remind you too that you'd promised to help me kill those hundreds of people, but why can't you kill them by yourself?"

"Oh, you are mistaken, I did not promise to kill them; I said I'd help you get rid of the curse in whatever way I could. So don't include me in your task because you are the only one who can do that, not anyone else." "Why won't you just go to that man and find a way to know his power and weaknesses so that he'll be gone from this world?"

"I'm telling you, Kaila, every man has the same weakness."

"How can you say that? I thought that everyone has their own weaknesses and courage, and that's unique."

"You are not thinking. Look at the man. He's alone there and it seemed that he did not have a girlfriend or wife."

"So what's the matter if he's alone? And how can you say that he doesn't have a girlfriend or wife if he's handsome and pursued by women? He seemed to have many girlfriends and wives. Tell me, are you a clairvoyant?"

"I had been strolling around for over thousands of years, so I know some men are different from others, some has many women, but some believes they don't need a woman in their lives, that they can live alone, but that belief changed when they saw a woman who truly loved them," Alicia explained.Nôvel(D)rama.Org's content.

"What do you mean? We're talking about how to kill him, but you go too far.. If you won't help me in killing him, then I can kill him by myself." I stepped out to walked but Alicia grabbed my hand and stopped me from going. "Don't be obvious that you are going towards him with your real intentions."

Alicia let go of me and she walked slowly as if she was walking towards the other spot, she wasn't looking at the target, and seemed to be having other purposed while doing that, then she stopped and stared at me. "That should be how you walk, don't bring your real intentions to your enemy, so that you can surprise them when you suddenly attack," Alicia said.

"Why do I need to walk if I can transport myself from one place to another in a heartbeat?" This would more suprising if I'd suddenly appeared on someone's front and attack them without walking. "Am I right old Alicia?" I asked. "You are right, but I cannot train you in teleporting because that's more difficult as what you are thinking, and can you please stop calling me 'old Alicia?' Call me 'Alice,' because I'm so young for that name."

I just had noticed that Alicia became more looked younger than before. She was opposite to human, because as she grew older, her appearance grew younger. I didn't know if how she did it, maybe she used magic, because it seemed to be needed a long time before we could be free from the curses. It didn't matter anymore if how young was she. Soon, I'd also learn how to change my appearance, but right there, I was so young to change my appearance into a younger one. I needed to do many things in order to be free. I must focus on it.

"You're right, maybe I can practice teleporting after killing that man, because it seemed to be difficult to do that."

I knew it wouldn't be even how difficulty it was. It would only take me a short time if I would ask the power of vision to teach me. It would become easier to fight if I could teleport. If that happened, I would not need the help of this old Alicia or Alice anymore, because I could go anywhere by myself.
