Chapter 96: Who Are You Really?
A golden light expanded out from Alicia. This light hit ke causing him to feel a warm serene feeling. This feeling made him feel extremelyfortable. Almost as if he was bathing in warm sunlight.
The light continued outward bypassing all solid objects. The skeletons in the hall all turned their head and as if drawn by the golden light walked towards it. But when the golden light touched the skeletons they immediately dropped to the floor, their bones turning to dust.
Loeri, Sta, and Rose were all downstairs investigating a room when the goldenlight swept past them. This startled the three of them but when they realized this goldenlight was not harmful, all three let out a sigh of relief.
"What is this!?" Sta asked, looking at the other two.
"I am not sure..." Rose answered.
"It can''t be!" Loeri suddenly shouted out. But quickly covered her mouth. She had a feeling this light had to do with one of the two upstairs. She knew that Sta and Rose were loyal to Alicia but to Loeri all humans except Alicia, deep down were greedy people.
"Loeri, do you know what this is?" Sta asked.
"I think I do but I can not say for sure. I will exin when the other two get back." Loeri quickly answered. She dare not say a word right now. She would wait until Alicia got back to see what Alicia would say.
The golden light continued to spread out across the city. Any undead that came in contact with the golden light was instantly purified and turned into dust. It was not long before the entire city was epassed in a dome of golden light. Back on the second floor Alicia''s body slightly levitated off the ground. Her ck starry skyed eyes looked around the room until theynded on ke. The aura Alicia was giving off seemed to get stronger and stronger. So strong that ke was even having a hard time standing in front of her.
A smile appeared on Alicia''s face as her body floated over to ke. She lifted her hand and ced it on ke''s forehead. Her mouth opened and said a single sentence: "You must protect this girl."
A bright golden light surged forth from Alicia''s hand and entered ke''s head. He gave out a painful grunt and wanted to pull away but he soon found that a flood of information entered his head. After only a few seconds which seemed to like an eternity, the pain faded and Alicia removed her hand.
ke opened his eyes and looked at Alicia with an expression of confusion. His head was now filled with a lot of information. A lot of it he could not understand right away. Alicia''s ck starry skyed eyes showed a hint of warmth as she looked at ke. "This girl deep down truly cares for you. Protect her well. When the time is right everything will be understood."
Once Alicia finished saying her words her eyes closed and her whole body went limp causing ke to quickly catch her before she fell to the ground. A look of worry showed on ke''s face as he checked to see if Alicia was alright. Only when he saw that she was still breathing and was only in a deep sleep, did he let out a sigh of relief.
With Alicia in his arms, he cradled her close to his chest as he slumped to the floor trying to figure out what just happened. The only thing he knew was the one who was talking to him just now was definitely not Alicia! He looked down at Alicia''s peaceful sleeping face and gently brushed the loose hair back behind her ears. "Who are you really?" ke silently whispered.
Only after sitting on the floor for twenty minutes as he waited to see if Alicia would wake up did ke slowly get up off the floor. Alicia showed no sign of waking up in the short term so ke could only make his way back downstairs.
When he arrived at the lower floor he found the three girls standing by the entrance seemingly waiting for him. When the girls saw Alicia in ke''s arms they quickly ran over to him with worried expressions. "She''s fine just in a deep sleep. Our investigation ends here. We are heading back to the capital."
Loeri who had a contract with Alicia felt a strange but strong power flowing in Alicia''s body. She looked at ke questioningly. But ke did not say anything he only walked forward carrying Alicia. "ke will the Young Miss be okay!?" Rose finally spoke up breaking the silence.
"She will be fine." ke paused his steps before turning back to the three girls behind him. "Everything that happened today is to be kept a secret. If I find out that someone said something about today''s urrence I will not hesitate to kill them!" ke''s tone of voice turned cold and his killing intent undted out of his body causing Sta and Rose to go pale.
The two girls quickly nodded their heads not daring to say a word. They have never seen this side of ke before. The look in his eyes said it all. If they said anything about today then he really would kill them!
Giving one final nce at the two girls his eyes swept over to Loeri who only looked at him indifferently. Although it was just a quicknce and their eyes only met for a split second the meaning was clear. ''<em>We will talkter.</em>''
