Electus - Chapter 477
“Tell me what you are and I will tell you what we’re doing here.” Sekun offered, bickering at best but this can work out to the crew’s advantage if the steps are taken properly.
Not willing to give in, having a certain pride hurt if bested by mortals debate-wise, the creature that we can label as a Ghost, confuted with her feminine tone rising high. “What if I don’t tell you?”
Grasping where Sekun is going with this, Eric added a little spice of his own. “You have time to decide, once our friend here wakes up, we will make our way out of here.”
Knowing Eric for well over a year now, Ada can sense what he’s trying to do and when he’s trying to do it, so she backed him up. “Besides, you seem harmless and can just do a few tricks to our eyes.”
GUHHRHRHRHRHRHLLL!
Thunder broke from the sky and exploded a few feet from where the group has taken seat over the dry grass.
Such explosion near the ears forced the gang to jump up and make a run for it a few steps back, it has been determined that they’ve underestimated this Ghost.
GUURUURHAAAAG!
Another thunder broke, zig zagging from the sky and almost hitting Ada this time, perhaps this Ghost is targeting the last human to refuse his word.
Whatever the intent might be, it sure isn’t easy on the eyes, the gang can barely see what’s in front of them at the moment because of the blinding sudden light.
Feeling like she has thrown authority against these Humans, the Ghost lady made an entrance, revealing her form.
Her twists and edges portrayed a well toned by muscle woman, attractive if you will. Followed along by several colours stretching from one end to the other.
These colours seem to shift and change, either by shape or by tone. One moment her thighs and feet carry a light blue colour, followed by red dots around the ankles and at the other moment those red dots expand and merge with the blue colour, bordering everything by becoming stripes.
Of course we’re describing the lower body here, her upper body and everything else basically shared the same concept. Colour changing and shifting in different forms, no one here ever saw a Ghost do that.
Her hair however are unique as well, yellow in colour and they stretch down to her hip. Well at least it portrays what hair looks like, although the whole lady looks like glowing air.
Apart from these glorious colours, this Ghost stands 8 foot tall which in many ways compliments her attractive curves.
Walking towards Eric, watching him stroll around blinded and trying to find his friends, the Ghost lady grabbed the boy by the collar underneath the chin and lifted him up.
Whose superior has been well determined, now it’s time to practice dominance.
She raised the boy 5 feet above the ground with one hand and cited, “If an introduction does stand necessary, you should know that I am Jaluuti. A Lava spirit and I represent and Guard great power.”
A bit on edge, not a fan how these mortals didn’t just give in right away, Jaluuti added. “That’s the last thing you will know as death shall be your teacher.”
This being a clear threat, there is one thing the young Electus can rely on. Fire!
With his arms free to move at will, he stretched them both forward and felt his hands touching the Ghost’s shoulder blades.
Scaling his power at maximum heat, he blew out Fire that can enslave what would give in.
Both of his palms unleashing such a wave that began from two main points and spread 10 feet wide with his prime intent being murder and his secondary being self defense.
“Aaaaaaah!” Jaluuti shouted, letting go of the young Electus.
As Fire spread wide once hitting the target, shunning away once lightly Igniting the grass.
Although the entire group can barely see at the moment because of that ear shattering thunder, they sense no sign of the spirit lady which only hollers towards the fact that Eric’s self defense attack worked.
“Where are you Ada? Sekun?” Eric asked, walking around with barely any field of vision. It’s not easy to see thunder explode in front of one’s eyes.
“I’m here.” Sekun’s tone echoed between the trees, flying their way to Eric’s ears.
“I’m here too, I see a tree.” Ada’s tone sounded out as well although both of them didn’t provide any useful information.
Well they all are temporarily blinded, an hour maybe or ten? Or w day? It isn’t certain as this is the first time they’ve experienced such burden but at least everyone sounds alive. Excruciatingly alive!
Trying his best to find everyone, Eric first took a 360° slow spin with hopes of spotting anyone and after bellowed. “Where here? I can’t just know what you know!”
“Eric, you can’t find us but maybe we can find you.” Sekun pitched, trying his best to stay calm at such a unique situation and after interposed. “Light a Fire or something, maybe on your hand.”
Liking the idea, Ada intoned from a good distance. “Yes yes we can definitely see a Fire! I see one already!”
At first confused about what Ada is seeing, immediately after he got the idea and blurted. “That’s just the grass, don’t follow it.”
Blowing a light amount of Fire from his palm and keeping it going too, with another idea in mind he projected. “Try to follow the sound of my voice too, I will say random things so you know what to follow.”
“Trees.”
“Uhhh… words, what are words?”
“Remember that time when I hunted Boars for that Ignite tribe? I wish they starve this winter, I don’t like how I have the same skin as they do.”
Ada’s tone echoed through his ear, stating. “I think I see you, keep complaining.”
“Okay.”
“I hid chicken poop in Mogranius’ pillow for a month straight, because I remember him being a pain in the ass back at Crutal Kingdom.”
“He should never have claimed that I hide underneath my father’s ass.”
Finishing that sentence, he felt a couple of arms touching his waist and shortly after moving higher towards his chest as a warm hug from behind closed in.
Ada’s tone whispered right after paired with a sigh of relief, “I found you.”
Jamming his foot on a tree root and starting to dash forward with little signs of control, Sekun’s knees met the ground but he used his arms to protect his head from facing a similar fate. Henceforth, complaining with a holler. “Why have you stopped talking, I’m still lost.”
Pulling Ada in a proper hug, trying to make sure that she is okay and will remain safe. Eric continued with his rants, “Uggghhh I hate fish.”
“I hate how I had to eat fish for months! I swapped boar meat with fish I stole from a cart. I couldn’t handle the fish meat anymore.”
“I hate this place and I miss home where the rest of my family is at. I never thought that I would miss seeing Mogranius.”
“I hate sleeping in the wild, bugs keep crawling down my pants and biting my ass.”
“Okay okay stop talking, respectfully of course my King.” Sekun harangued and tapped the young Golden Blood by the shoulder.
“So touching, Mortals working together. I haven’t seen such a show since… I don’t think I’ve ever seen Humans cooperating.” That same feminine tone shone, this can only be Jaluuti the Lava Spirit.
“F.u.c.k out of here or I’ll burn you again!” Eric hollered, now that a weakness has been made transparent, they have no reason to fear this crazy ghost.
Appearing out of thin air, granting everyone the capability to see out of a sudden which forced Eric to utter. “It was all an illusion?”
They gazed upon the Spirit, carrying a couple of Silver Daggers and fiddling with them as she stood 10 meters away.
Her colours now carry different shades, grey amongst her legs and glowing red from the belly button to the neck. Now, her hair seem a bit longer, touching the ground and carrying a white colour.
Revealing what burden awaits them next, Jaluuti started to shout. “Normally I have my brothers tear mortal intruders apart, but this time I would like to grasp upon such honour.”
And thus, those same Daggers thundered above the ground once she tossed them. Forcing trees to rip from the ground the moment those Daggers passed by.
The earth itself sunk lower, submissive towards the force above them.
Leaves followed such thunderous speed, although we can’t say that those leaves were intact. They carried fire, burning on one edge be it fast or slow.
It felt like forever, although it all happened in a corner of a second.
The couple of Daggers reached the group, you would expect them to tear the crew in half.
Quite the opposite, the Daggers stopped on the spot, a foot away from the crew.
Floating on mind air, reflecting the moonlight.
Out of a sudden, it’s grey texture started deforming and replacing with a hotter, glowing colour.
Red, yes and the group can feel the heat it bestows upon anyone dumb enough to still stand close to them Daggers.
Consciousness stood no longer to the crew’s aid as the Daggers melted and their liquids imprinted a word on the ground, “Halieq”.
