The Last Azvisalokya by Mii Ryouma (world best books to read TXT) 📖

Sahed wasn't ready to confront, he took his ring immediately from his left forefinger, and threw it in the air muttering "kAlacakra".
The wheel of time had been invoked.. Sahed was able to freeze time for a minute. That level of divine power surpassed every living creature's abilities. Even the lord of demons (El-Hareth), had never been able to have influence on time.

 

His ancient book was opened in his hand.. he tore a papyrus, rolled it, and murmured "zatacandra" as he swung out an adorned sword. He tried to direct his attack on the silver wings (the demon's ones), but his attempt was a failure against the iridescent power shield of that female-like wild thing.

 

Nothing to do against her without hurting Nina's body... He turned his head to where Kyser was laying, in a pool of blood, on the floor ... Now comes your turn.. moonchild ...

 

Sahed removed the golden blade (feather) that was planted in the boy's heart. With his sword, he cut his own left wrist's arteries, and let his blood filled Kyser's heart .. More than a half-minute had passed, he took his phone to write a message, then he sent it.

 

          Time was almost up, he jumped to reach his frozen-in-the-air ring. The moment he reached it, he muttered " devAlaya ", then landed on the ground, not inside the investigation office.
They found themselves, all of them in a deserted place. Nothing to see apart from huge rocks, standing in a circle.. A beep was heard from Sahed's phone.. (The message was sent to Ilen).

 

Göbekli Tepe, Urfa , Southeastern Anatolia, Turkey..
17:21 ...

 

 

 

They were inside the ruins of the oldest temple, humans had ever built. "Göbekli Tepe"
Lucida immediately was ejected from those ruins, with an unbelievable force .. Demons had never been allowed to be inside any sacred moon temple..

 

-" Son!..Is that you? ... I'm in love! " She was talking...not Nina ... Takara...

 

David and Aenon, taking Kyser along with them, in a blink of an eye, were out of the ruins.
- " This is not the best place to take a seat." David stated.
Then added Aenon :
- " the divinities' family business could drag all the universe to a chaotic era. "
- " Let's pray that won't happen! "
Both of them repeated " Amen! "

 

          Sahed tried to bow respectively to her, but couldn't. They were both trapped frozen inside the gravitational field of the sacred moon temple. The divinity part of Takara was paralyzed, but the demon power that possessed her, was being absorbed.

 

He just answered her with the most extreme fondness and affection.
- " Mother! Queen of Deïmos! What an honor to stand, in front of your Reverence!"
- " My Sahed! You are everything I wanted... Where is El-Hareth? He should be here .. And, if you noticed, I-c-a-n-n-o-t-m-o-v-e!"

 

- " El-Hareth sealed a part of his power inside the last Azvisalokya, to protect her until the sacrifice. That's why, my queen, you were able to temporarily awake using all that energy.." He added "Just three years to go, your Reverence.."

 

          Takara fixed her eyes on Sahed's, she giggled trying to shake her head, and finally gave him an indirect warning..
" You are indeed, my son! Your plan is great, but not perfect...You can't compete with me.."
She paused for few seconds, then continued her under-breath threatening...
"Never-forget-that-you-belong-to-me! .. Son .. Watch your back! "

 

That was the first encounter of Sahed with his mother Takara...

 

The gravitational field of the sacred moon temple disappeared, and Sahed was able to catch Nina before her body touched the ground. Her wings were gone, but her back was deeply wounded.

 

He used his life power to cure her, caressing gently her bare skin, until she was able to move. When she faced him, he just put two fingers on her mouth shushing her..

 

- " Shush.. shush.. You don't want Takara in your body.. Am I right? " Nina nodded .
" Then, don't panic! .. Ok? " I won't panic.. I won't panic.. I won't panic.. And she kept nodding .. nodding .. nodding ..
" Stop doing that! " She just froze.. then exhaled the longest 'Ouuuuuuf' of her severe emotional distress.

 

Nina began to remember what happened when she was possessed by Takara..
Kyser! No! ..
          She started feeling sick, as if someone had been clenching the inside of her chest... Two hands grabbed her shoulders shaking her.
She raised her head up, to see a pair of golden eyes questioning the sudden sadness on her face..

 

-" K-y-s-e-r.. " with a fading voice, almost disappearing " I killed h.."
Sahed interrupted..
-" He is fine.. Please don't start panicking again."
- " You saved him! .."
He just nodded once, smiling.

 

With the most grateful expression, she put her hands on his arms.. then whispered..
- " ... Tttthank you...I..I..I owe you my life.."

 

For the first time ever, Sahed felt the warmth invading the inside of his chest, then crawling into every part of his body.. A sort of gravitation, invited him to brush Nina's cheek with the back of his hand.. He needed that touch, which brought memories from nearly fifteen years ago, of that unforgettable night between earth and Akma, the first time his eyes met hers.

 

He just muttered :
- " You should .. "

          He stood up, and helped Nina to stand on her trembling legs..

 

THE SIXTH GATE (of David's Hell)

 

          His servants, all of them were there, including the newest member : Kyser.
They just bowed.. Waiting for any order from their master..

 

           David wanted to hold his daughter, and to tell her how sorry he was, about her being drugged into the darkest side of life .. But she shook her head whispering " Don't.. " She wasn't ready to talk to him, not mentioning to forgive him..

 

          It didn't matter for her that he was a vapidus. After being in touch with Takara's memories, she knew about the saatnees clans, about the awakening process, and about the fact that both races: humans and saatnees, were from the same origin.

 

          The most important was the lie she had been living-in for her entire life. That short period of about fifteen years, was a drop in the ocean of those new memories inside her head. But, it never changed the fact that it was her whole life

 

         She walked to where Kyser was standing, stumbling many times on the huge rocks planted there. When she reached him, she put her hands on both sides of his face.. Tears were speaking instead of words. " I'm so sorry Kyser.. It wasn't me.. I.." He just stopped her lips from moving with a grateful stolen kiss " I'm in love with you, Nina! ".  Obviously, the half-saatnee got more guts than the human.

 

          As much as it was a surprise for Nina and her father, it bothered Sahed to see the Azvisalokya being touched in such inappropriate way..

 

She never expected that! the young man she had been always thinking of him as her big brother, was in love with her!
How!

 

          Her hands still on both sides of his face, she was searching for an explanation inside his electric blue eyes (his father's eyes). Wondering, if all those changes he went through from a human to a vapidus, were the origin of his awkward confession.

 

She wasn't even thinking when she run her hand through his white blonde hair, the same way she always did since her early childhood. She remembered that time, when she was five, the day she accused her father of being evil, unlike Mr.Klein who let Kyser inherit his mother's hair...

 

          Nina had never noticed before, how handsome Kyser was. The boy she used to have a good time playing with him, the loving big brother she never had.
She slapped him lightly " Kyser! Wake up! ... you are confused with all that changing inside you, that's it.. I'm Nina... remember.. the ugly.."

 

          " I've never been as clear-minded as I am now... That change you are accusing.. " he put his hand behind her head, and rested his forehead on hers " ...can't create new feelings, it just clarify the blurred mixed emotions."

 

He paused for few seconds then asked:
-" Have you ever seen me with another girl apart from you? "
-"Aaaaa... No!"
- " And you never asked why! Silly! "

 

          Sahed interrupted in his usual clipped way of speaking when addressed to his servants:
" We're expecting guests.." Kyser stiffened as every cell in his body did, when hearing the voice of his master, the one who awakened his hidden saatnee side.

 

He continued ordering "saatnees and demons are coming tonight. Keep your eyes on the 5 Radial Miles area around ... North, South, West, and East... "
The demon, the namakan, and the two vapidus were heading to their destinations.

 

          Sahed and Nina, both of them, sat on a big flat rock inside the moon temple ruins, few inches away from each other, resting on their hands which were on that rock behind their backs.

 

He was the first one asking..

 

- " Do you remember everything? when Takara possessed your body? "
-" I do! with some of Takara's own memories! "
- " I'm amazed! " he turned his head to her " How much important are those memories? "
- " Enough to weaken your spells" Nina was slyly smiling.

 

          He stood up, turned to face Nina, and covered her hands with his. Leaning towards her, his face almost touching hers.
- " Nina! "

 

          Her throat felt dry, her heart start racing, and her face was burning from the waft of his breath. She wanted to touch her cheeks, to ease that uncomfortable hotness, but her hands were blocked under his.
- " Yes? "
- " Are you afraid of me? " his eyes fixed on hers, anticipating the answer...

 

          She turned her head away from his face, away from his intimidating whispers. Trying to gather every piece of logic left inside her head, she answered..

- " Considering you're the one who is going to kill me? Exactly as you did to that beautiful blue creature?... I've seen everything in my visions. You were hunting me in every moon eclipse! stabbing my body to death with that d-a-gger!! "

 

          Nina stopped talking, closed her eyes, inhaled the scent of terrible visions.. But inside her head, Takara's thoughts and memories were drawing a new path for her life.

 

          She turned her head back to face that immortal who was glaring at her, then pulled gently her hands from underneath his, and just rested them on his shoulders..
Then continued...

 

" You know..you intend to do the best you can for all creatures of the universe, not only humans... But, my life is going to be ended soon, and in the most terrifying way.." She couldn't continue with all the tears blurring her vision..
She whipped her tears, and continued speaking, trying to be positive as possible as she can "I'm scared to death... Then, I got that strange feeling, that keeps telling me.. that I can trust you!"

 

         Those were the sweetest words, Sahed had never imagined he could hear from an Azvisalokya. They filled his longtime empty-soul with satisfaction and contentment. At the same time, he was wondering what Nina discovered inside Takara's mind and memories.

 

He finally got to the point that brought all the actions of the day. To the story he wanted to tell Nina about, one hour ago in Tampa..
"I'm not the one who is supposed to kill you, or kill any other Azvisalokya.. I am the
