"Co on, please work for , my light magic". I said and tried concentrating. I had to concentrate as I hadn’t gotten the hang of my light magic.
I should practice more often, seriously.
I breathed deeply and tried to gather light energy from the source of my power to my hands.
The source and core of my power cos from within .
Although the source of my power is within , it is divided into two parts.
One is a small white shining ball. And the other was a small black-colored ball.
Sohow I could see them if I ditated.
The white shining ball is the source of my powers of light. While the black-colored ball is the source of my powers of destruction.
The first ti I saw the sources of my powers, I felt it. The black ball felt stronger than the white shining ball.
Now that isn’t a good sign.
A faint spark of light appeared in both my hands, reaching my fingertips.
A drop of sweat ford on my forehead.
’Why are you breathing fast, Clara? Is using your light magic that hard? It is very weird and unfair that you are terrible at using your light magic but can easily make use of your black magic’.
"You are right, Elektra. It is totally unfair". I said to her, completely agreeing with her.
Not wasting ti because I felt that the little light magic I had gathered in my hands was soon going to scatter, I placed two fingers each on both sides of my eyes.
The light magic in my fingers moved into my eyes, and instantly, my vision beca twice as strong.
I was impressed.
But just imagine how much I could enhance my vision and how far I could see from afar if only I had mastered using my light magic.
Anyway, seeing things was much easier for . My gaze landed on a particular window after I saw a man’s figure.
Judging by the size of the window, it was a massive one compared to the other windows. "That must be Benjamin’s room". I flew over there as I muttered.
Only the sound of wind could be heard as I flew over to the window. My right leg kicked the window and shattered it as I invaded the room and landed on the floor in a bending position, before I rose up to my feet.
Then, I saw Benjamin, who was wearing only trousers and was sitting on a sofa with a glass of liquor in his hand and a cigarette in his mouth.
Unlike Anders, who had silver hair and bright blue eyes, Benjamin had black hair and brown eyes.
And, he was really buff and tall. His appearance fitted the description Anders explained to .
Plus, he looked strangely young and fit for a werewolf who is over sixty years old, according to what Anders told . But, it’s also strange that his face looked pale.
The room’s lights were on, so the room was actually very bright.
"What the?". The cigarette in Benjamin’s mouth fell out as he said and slowly stood up while staring at .
He was facing because the window I had broken was straightforwardly facing his direction.
"Alpha?". He said as he recognized right away.
"Are you Benjamin?". I asked, just to be sure, since I did not want to deal with the wrong werewolf.
"I am". He replied to after dropping the glass of liquor on the table in front of him. Staring at the broken window, he frowned, and glaring at , he demanded, "What is the aning of this visit, Alpha? Why are you here in my mansion uninvited? You can’t just barge into my house simply because you are the shadows’ pack Alpha. I can’t accept such rudeness".
I glared at Benjamin too.
Not caring about what he said to , I said to him, "Why did you kill Anders’ parents? And why the heck did you dare beat Anders until he was half-dead? Do you know that Anders could have died if I hadn’t saved him? How dare you commit such an act in my pack?".
There were a few seconds of silence before Benjamin laughed at with both his hands placed on his stomach.
I continued to glare at him and was trying to read him. ’Why is he busy laughing like a maniac?’. I wondered.
After Benjamin stopped laughing at , he grinned so widely, causing his face to look scary and hideous to look at.
"I did not kill that brat’s parents. They died because they were weaklings and couldn’t handle a simple beating which I enjoyed watching for my amusent". He casually said to , before he placed two fingers on his sharp chin and added, "So that brat did not die after taking in all those beatings? Exactly like I expected. He is strong. His body would be a perfect body to host . This body is growing weaker and weaker, and can not host for long, as I am very powerful".
’What kind of nonsense is he saying?’. Elektra hissed and said to .
Nonsense? But why do I feel that he is not talking nonsense?
"Benjamin, you did not deny killing Anders’ parents. And you also did not deny hurting Anders. As the alpha of the shadows’ pack, I must see to it that you get punished". I said to him, but he ended up laughing again, as if I had said sothing funny.
"Daughter of Athena, I see you are having fun living among the creatures of the earth. You are neither a human nor a werewolf by birth, so how are you the Alpha of the shadows’ pack and the chosen child of the prophecy? What trick did you use to beco who you are today? Was it your mother’s doing?". He said to after he stopped laughing.
The look in Benjamin’s eyes had gotten deadly serious, the sa as his aura, which was suffocating.
Honestly, I flinched. Why do I feel that Benjamin is not a normal werewolf?
There is this dark energy I was perceiving from him.
"Daughter of Athena? And what kind of nonsense are you talking about?". I asked him and took a step back.
I was completely wary of him and did not want to lose my guard.
"Oho, don’t you know the na of your own real mother? I am talking about the moon goddess". Benjamin announced. He took a step closer to as he said, "You are the child of light who will ruin my plan. At first, when Athena brought you down to earth and gave you to so humans, she was always watching over you, so I didn’t have the opportunity to end your life after my instinct whispered to to kill you. And I am aware that my instinct is never wrong. As you grew older, it beca difficult for Athena to always watch over you, as her energy noticeably started to drain as she always left the moon, which was her source of power. I have tried multiple tis to take your life, but I don’t understand why I couldn’t kill you! That was until everything beca clear recently. You are the chosen child, so killing you would be a difficult task for , as I was injured and was still recuperating back then. But now that you have co to on your own, and now that I feel much better, killing you shouldn’t be that hard for anymore".
"Who the heck are you?! You are not the real Benjamin". I shouted at him because this wasn’t funny anymore.
"Exactly. There’s no way that stupid Benjamin is as majestic as I am. Let’s say I am this world’s worst nightmare. I am darkness". Benjamin said, before he stopped talking and was walking towards while I took several steps backwards, away from him.
"Does the moon goddess know you?". I asked.
"Of course not. She doesn’t know , but I know her. Enough talking. It is ti for to kill you for good this ti around". Benjamin replied and stretched one of his hands towards .
Dark smoke filled that hand, and he attacked using it.
I dodged his attack and tried to leave the room through the window, but I did not know when or how he reached my side and dragged to the center of the room.
’Clara, get away from here imdiately! He doesn’t look normal. Use the door!’. Elektra yelled, and I quickly turned to the exit door and ran to it.
But the thing was, when I grabbed the door knob and was about to open the door, the door disappeared and was replaced with a wall.
I turned around and saw that it was Benjamin’s doing. "I promise, you are not going to leave this room alive". His voice, which was deep and echoed in the room, sent shivers into my spine.
Despite that, I glared at him and warned him, "You are the one who is not going to leave this room alive".
Enough of being scared.
Since I couldn’t escape from the bedroom except if I used my black magic to disappear, I was ready to fight him with the last of my strength.
I cherish my precious life a hundred tis.
If I wanted to disappear, I would have easily done that using my black magic.
But, sothing in is whispering these words in my heart; ’Only cowards run away from a fight. You are no coward, master. Use your formidable powers of destruction against him and show him his place! How dare he disrespect you?!’.
One thing I knew for sure was that the voice did not belong to Elektra.
