"In the beginning, everything was great. We talked with each other every day, but things changed soon…"
"Wait a minute…" As Noah continued his story, Elysia seed to have noticed sothing and interrupted him in the middle.
Noah stopped talking and waited for her to speak. He felt like there was sothing wrong with her gaze. It was like she was suspicious of sothing.
"Noah, while breaking through, you encountered an inner demon… what did you see?" Elysia asked with a solemn look on her face.
"Why?" Noah asked back with a confused look on his face.
"A lot has changed ever since that day, you have changed… you have been acting more open and if this goes on I might not be able to stop myself from falling for you more than I already have, if that is even possible…" Elysia's eyes were filled with doubts as she continued, "I do not want you to act more warm with just because of so kind of vision or sothing that the demon said… I want you to act like that because you love not for any other reason.
So please tell what did the demon tell you or show you?"
Hearing her pleading voice, Noah's mouth went agape. He could have never thought that Elysia would ever think sothing like that. But after listening to her carefully, he realized how much she cared for his feelings and wanted his love in return for her own.
He thought about it and the flashes of the ti he spent with the demon flashed through his mind, the scenes of Evelyn dying followed by the deaths of Elysia and Xin Yan.
***
"It's not just that; whatever you choose to love crumbles apart. Your mother died because she gave birth to you." Suddenly the words of the demon flashed through his mind, with the death of his mother.
"Every woman you will ever love, or any woman that will ever love you, will only have one end." He saw the sa scene of Elysia dying in his arms, Xin Yan, lay there motionless with a huge hole in her stomach right by his side.
"It is better for everyone if you die before anyone else gets hurt by you."
***
Everything ca flashing through Noah's mind as he kept looking at Elysia in the eyes. Instead of being angered or even annoyed, a soft smile appeared on Noah's face as he raised his hands to place it on Elysia's cheek.
Elysia's eyes trembled seeing the sa look he gave her when he first appeared in front of her after making his new body. She thought that Noah was about to kiss her, which she would have stopped. She did not want anything to happen between them unless it was real.
"Nothing true~" Hearing Noah's soft words, Elysia looked him in the eye but did not see any signs of falsehood.
Even though she did not say it, Noah could see so doubts in her mind. A thought ca to his mind and he removed his hand from her cheek, presenting it to her, "Give your hand~"
Although confused, Elysia gave him her hand before she felt a tug at her consciousness. Without resisting the pull even slightly, she left herself in Noah's hands and let him do whatever he wanted and cherished the feeling of his hands.
Seeing this, Noah beca more certain of his next actions and closed his eyes as well.
*Woosh!*
The two of them felt everything around them turning dark. Elysia did not panic, feeling his presence beside her with her hand in his. Suddenly, a red-colored fla appeared in the air, catching her attention.
*Woosh*
Then another fla appeared a little far away from the previous one. The fla was yellow.
*Woosh!*
Then appeared the blue fire opposite to the red one, but they were unable to see it because of sothing obstructing their view.
*WOOSH!*
Just as the green fla appeared, they all rose into the air, making a pillar of flas. The top of these pillars got attracted towards each other while so repelled the others, forming a deadlock.
Elysia's eyes did not look ahead, but she looked at the floor she was standing on instead. It seed to be made out of glass, but there were golden vein-like patterns on the floor. The veins were leading in the sa direction the flas were leading them.
When the fla pillar appeared, she watched as a line of each color of fla moved toward the center of these points.
*Zhneng!*
She watched all the lines touch so kind of altar, lighting it up. A blinding golden light ca from the center of the altar, forcing her to cover her eyes. By the ti everything went back to normal, Elysia opened her eyes and found herself floating in the air.
Noah smiled in satisfaction, seeing the amazed look on her face. How could she not be amazed at the beautiful sight in front of her?
Everything around her was glowing in golden light, and there was no end to the place as far as her eyes could see.
Her attention was imdiately attracted by the huge golden lotus; she could see several vein-like patterns she had seen before on the ground. The size of the lotus was double the size of the mountain they were living on outside.
That was not as absurd as the size of the thing that was pulsing in the middle of the lotus. Sitting on the lotus was a huge blob of energy mass of the sa color. It was at least twice the size of the lotus, making it look like a seating cushion underneath it.
She could see so white and black spots on the golden blob in different spots. She imdiately recognized that thing as Noah's soul. Around that soul, there was a small orbit made of golden particles that ca from the lotus.
They were coming from the lotus-like pollens from flowers, so of them stayed to revolve around the lotus while the others moved farther away and disappeared into thin air.
"This is…" Elysia muttered in disbelief as she moved her gaze around, "…your soul realm?" She turned to look at Noah, and his smile was all the confirmation she needed.
