The Crown's Mundane

Zillah teleported back home. she couldn't believe what happened, she planned on telling the good news to omna.

Leaving her room to the library, opening her door, she saw daivik and Aeron at her door, seated.

When they saw her they were shocked to see the expression on her face, she was happy. They immediately got up.

"Zillah are you okay?"...., daivik asked her,

Aeron slapped him saying,

"how can she be fine can't you see that she's covering her sorrow and bitterness with smile and laughter, you should understand".

"Oh, true Zillah you shouldn't be sad it was her choice okay, don't take it to heart"... daivik told her.

Zillah then understood what they were saying.

Should I tell them that since I have reconciled with alvah and at least Alana's Death was not in vain.

With a saddened tone she said, "I was just on my way to go see omna".

"No don't put this on omna, it was Alana's decision"...., Aeron said.

"I'm not going to him for that. I want to tell something"....

Aeron said....

"You want to tell him it was his fault he should have stopped her from making that decision, Zillah".

"I'm not doing that, seriously. I'll not blame anybody for the death of Alana. she had her reasons for doing that and now I see why, okay".

They both nodded.

"Okay Aeron?"....she asked again.

They laughed saying,

"We get it, so you can be up for practice by tomorrow".

"Yes and I'm off"...she walked out of there.

They teleported back to their room.

On her way to the library, she remembered that she could now teleport, as she was about to, keva called out to her.

She turned around, she saw her coming.

Keva teleported forward to her, and hugged her.

"I hope this isn't a burden to you?"... she asked

"I'm okay".... she replied.

Keva then looked at her and said... "you shouldn't hide your worry at least from me"

"I'm not hiding anything, I'm good".

"Then what are you doing, you need more rest go, go. I hope the boys didn't disturb you about training".

"How do you know they were there?"...she asked.

"Three of us were waiting, including Cristal. omna said we shouldn't disturb you so we waited, I and Cristal left".

"Thanks for worrying about me", She appreciated.

"You're welcome".... keva replied.

"Go take a rest now".... she said to her.

"No I want to go see omna"..., she told Keva

"What? no, omna wouldn't agree to seeing you out, he wants you to relax".

Zillah couldn't protest any more, she succumbed to what she said and went back to her room.

Thinking all day she became tired and fell asleep. Whilst asleep, she keep on breathing hot air, her surrounding was hot, she uncovered herself. it wasn't helping.

She then opened her eyes, she saw alvah seated on the ground meditating, she was surprised, should I tap him, she thought.

Meanwhile she was still very hot, she decided to sit upright on her bed, waiting for when he would open his eyes,

Seventeen minutes had passed, alvah hadn't opened his eyes, and by the time Zillah was feeling dizzy.

By twenty minutes she passed out on the bed, alvah then opened his eyes, looking at her on the bed he disappeared.

"Lazy Zillah.... get up for training".

Daivik was shouting her name but she didn't respond. Aeron carried a pillow from the bed and smacked it on her face.

She woke up.

"What are you doing in the bed by now?"...he asked dropping the pillow back on the back.

"Sorry.... I overslept... she said covering her face. I'll get ready".

She ran into the bathroom.

The guys walked out the room, they went to go meet omna first.

When they got to the library, keva was seated, Omna was at one of the book shelf.

Daivik chose to disturb keva today.

Heading towards her seat, Aeron pulled him back announcing their arrival by shouting "We're here"....

"For Omna"... Daivik said.

"We came to ask what we should teach Zillah today aside from swords fighting".

"Nothing else, she should master using her katana". Omna replied flatly.

Few minutes passed, Zillah walked in,

"Zillah, we were just talking about you and your mastering in swords fighting"... Aeron Said.

"I'm not using my weapon"... she said

Everyone looked at her, omna walks up to her. "What do you mean?"...he asked.

Zillah replied,

"I will not use the weapon that killed Alana".

"Zillah"... omna said her name.

"I haven't even gone to war and my katana is stained with blood, I'm not using that".

"It's stained with pure blood"...., he said.

"Weapons are meant for the blood of your enemy and not your friend, this katana killed a loved one".

"Her blood is as a sacrifice for you Zillah"... Omna shouted.

Zillah's eyes widened, it was the first time Omna shouted at her. Was he too angry that Alana has died.

"You know that too, she did it for you. You will use that katana, and cherish it, do you hear me?".

"Take her for training"..., he ordered Aeron.

Aeron and daivik walked to her, held her arm and teleported to the training ground. Keva looked at omna.

Aeron said to her,....

"Zillah we know that anytime you look at the katana, you will always remember that alana died by that katana, but for your sake, don't forget a weapon is assigned to you for a reason.

He picked a katana for you, but he never inscribed SLAYER on it, there should be a reason".

Zillah said....,

"I don't like seeing blood. I don't even want to use weapon".

"Using what you have to defeat your enemy is what you will believe in. I use this sword, Aeron's sword came out from his palm".

It was long, slim, heavy, sharp bladed and nothing short of magnificent.

He said..., "I used this weapon to slaughter my enemies and I cherish it, that's why I take it with me to battle".

"I'm not for fighting with weapon"....Zillah shouted.

"So what if you didn't have the super natural power of air?".... daivik told her.

"Let's get to training"... she said, picking up her katana.

"That's good"... Daivik said.

"I'm so exhausted",...

She fell onto her bed after her training. She dropped her katana on the table.

Looking at the ceiling, she faces the door to see alvah standing.

She stood up, Asking, "why are you here?"...

"I believe you are tired get to bed"... he commanded.

"I'm tired does not mean I can sleep".... she said.

"What's your training?".... he asked.

She answered, "Sword's fighting".

"What's your weapon?..." he asked.

Katana she pointed to the katana that she laid on the table.

"Katana"...,

he repeated, walking to the table, he picked it up. Unknown to him the gothic lettering which indicated Slayer, glowed.

"You've got a pretty good weapon Zillah"..., he said to her.

"Even though it's the same that killed your sister, she asked"....

Then alvah remembered the incident. His brain refused to clean up that scene.

"The past is behind me now isn't it?"..., he asked rhetorically.

Alvah sure hasn't forgetten a bit what happened that day and he would stop at nothing to get back at Zillah.

"What level are you?"..., he asked.

"I should be approaching advanced level by now"...., she replied.

He asked further,

" how's your power coming up?"...

"Pretty much well"....

she replied. She feels uneasy answering all this question. Like he is collecting information about her.

"Won't you sleep?"..., he asked her,

"Why do you want me to sleep, so you'll go back early, then i wouldn't sleep"... she said smiling.

What she's doing is ruining my plan, but it still can't hinder me, he said smirking.

"Okay I'll stay".... he said, playing along.

Zillah kept playing with her fingers by massaging it to make it longer.

Alvah was just looking at her, he then asked,

"your fingers are long enough why are you still pulling it?"...

"How do you my fingers are long, have you seen it before?"....she asked smiling.

"Go to sleep"...., he changed the conversation.

"No"...she refused. she kept massaging her fingers with lotion. She hasn't done this since she got here,

Alvah who was sitting on her couch which is at the end of the room close to the window was releasing his dark energy into the room which was slowly assimilating into Zillah's body, unknown to her.

He knew his visits with her was safe since he knew that she will not tell anyone about his coming here.

He knew this from last night that he visited. Although he was meditating he knew she was awake.

Alvah's meditation was a method of discharging his evil directly into her since she was at rest.
