The Crown's Mundane

"I'm not sure when it starts, but there are many tests and it's not your decision.

It's a series of three test and I'll accompany you."

"Weren't you going to accompany me in the first place?...", she asked.

He laughed.

"What kinds of test?...." she asked.

"He replied, I suppose you might see humans and unusual Creatures whatsoever".

"You mean we"...

"What?"... he asked confused.

Zillah said...,

"You said you might see humans and unusual Creatures. I'm not going there alone, right"

He laughed again.

"Alvah," she shouted.

"Zillah the truth is I don't know how I'll go with you, all I know is that dad escorted the lady hansi, so I know it's possible".

"It depends though, if I'm not given an option I cannot go with"...

He looked away, looking back, she had teary eyes all of a sudden.

"Jeez, Zillah don't cry, I'll go with you, i assure you, you're scaring me, stop".

She cleaned her eyes and looked at herself in the mirror.

"I'm off"... he said, alvah left.

Zillah stood up, she went to the rug where she had dropped the book and picked it up.

She wants to read on the power of Empyreal Ghazan and master it.

She thought of learning the ceasing of breath, but when she read more on it, it required a lot of focus and concentration mostly if it is of a massive population.

She didn't care, all she wanted was to become stronger.

She took hours reading the necessary things she needed to know.

She went into the garden in the outskirts of Elysian, there she saw animals.

She was scared of animals, so it was hard for her to get even one.

When she managed to get closer to one, it was a rabbit, but she still kept her distance.

She looked into the eyes of the rabbit, the rabbit did so to her. she laughed

I lack concentration, she said to herself.

By that time the rabbit had run back into his hole,

she was upset, she walked to the hole, she sat on the grass and chose to cease the air present in the hole

Zillah Knew quite well that the skill she was mastering required a ninety percent of air ability and she had only but five percent, but she persisted.

Am i deceiving myself, she asked herself and replied, No!....

She concentrated even more. Her intense use of the little air she had to perform this skill triggered someone.

Another hours had passed by of her trying but she didn't prevail.

she gave up, she went back to her room feeling frustrated and looking depressed. she laid on the bed and wondered how she was going to fend for herself if she was like this.

"You're desperate for power" .... a voice said to her.

No, I'm not"... she immediately responded. "The thing is that I want to be useful. I was so grateful that omna gave me part of the air power otherwise...." she didn't complete it.

"What do you want?"... the voice asked her.

"I... wait, who are you?"..., she asked. she felt that she could share her thoughts freely with this person.

She couldn't hear the voice any longer.

"I hope there is no ghost in Elysian".she muttered.

"No"..., she ran out of the room and went to keva's room. they were at rest, she didn't want to disturb.

Meanwhile she was scared, "maybe I should go to alvah, but what if I'm caught. I'll tell him to come here".

She quickly teleported to Tartarus, to alvah's room.

He was asleep but when she entered the room he woke up, he had sensed her coming.

The moment she appeared,

" What are you doing here"..., he asked her.

He didn't wait for her reply, he released dark energy into the room to cover her pure energy.

When he was done, she asked what was that.

"Nothing, why are you here?"...

"Ghost"..., she said

"What".... he asked confused.

"A voice was heard in my room, I was conversing with it".

"You were what?"... he asked.

"It was understanding though, it understood my feelings".

"You're talking with a ghost. Zillah if you need someone to talk to just call me, it didn't have to get to this".

"No.., it was nice"... she said.

"Was it a female or a male"..., he asked.

"It was a male voice"... she replied.

"Are you cheating on me?".... he asked jokingly.

"You", she teleported to the bed and hit him with a pillow.

He was laughing.

"I was joking, so what you cannot sleep"

"I can sleep, but I can't stay in the room". "So you want to stay here" he asked.

"No, you stay there with me at least till I fall asleep".

"I've been missing from Tartarus almost everytime they're looking for me. I don't want to be a suspected in any action I take.

Go back, maybe it's gone".

I cannot go back there, I'll..." she found herself on the bed she quickly carried the blanket and covered her head to toe.

It was the next day, she woke up. she looked around, there was no one.

As she lifted up her body and looked towards the couch which was against the wall at the end corner, she saw alvah seated.

"You didn't get hurt did you,"... he asked,

"I promise, I heard voices in the room last night, it said, why are you desperate for power" and when I replied that I was not, it then it asked me what I wanted, that was when I realized I was talking to no one"

"Fine I believe you. Go get yourself prepared". he said.

"Why?... are we going out?"... she asked

"It's a new day",

"Okay, true, I'll go, she ran to go freshen up". when she came out, alvah was gone.

"Where did he go?"

Alvah was in tartarus sitting on his chair with his legs crossed on the table.

When he heard a voice saying, 'mmmh, it's a pity she is going alone for the evaluation".

He heard clearly what the voice said, "has the ghost come for me"

He wanted to teleport when be heard "stop"...he stopped immediately.

"she will die."

"What?"...

"She will die a pitiful death, do you know why,?"...

Alvah was listening carefully.

"Because she's a lonely child, everyone says she's weak when she is trying her best, no one cares for her that includes you", the voice was louder than before.

"That's a lie, I care for her, I made a promise to protect her and I will"...., he answered.

"Then why aren't you accompanying her to take this test".

"I am"... he shouted. He found himself in an unknown village.

"What?,"....he heard another voice, he quickly turned around he saw Zillah.

"Zillah".... he called out to her, she turned around and saw Alvah.

She ran to him. "Where are we and how did we get here?"...., she asked.

Alvah recalled everything that happened, is that how you get to go with, so what if I had said no she would have appeared here on her own, he looked at her.

Zillah was still looking at her unknown surrounding.

"I didn't know there was another place other than Elysian and Tartarus, or is this your surprise"... she turned and looked at him with her purple eyes.

"What? no, what?"....

"You said, get dressed this morning, is this where you were you were taking me too".

"No, Zillah this is your test".

Her eyes widened, my evaluation test.

"Yes".... he replied.

"Oh my goodness".
