DESTINY GIRL

134. Fake Rituals

After fixing the line he checked the surroundings to make sure there were no more broken lines. Then back to the front. Zacko who was observing all of that prepared.

(" Don't float, it will look high. Just fold your legs covered in a dress ") Rey's message to Axie, Xenia and Xibo.

The hermit drove the servants home. He thought their existence would interfere with the transfer process. He watched until the servants were no longer seen.

Then the hermit crouched down and opened the lid of the urn. The left hand holds the urn, the right hand touches the line. Shortly before the hermit's hand touched the line, Zacko had already moved the ground locking the girls' feet in a circle. While Rey, Axie, Xenia and Xibo just fold their legs (floating silently) so as not to be exposed to the magic of Zacko or hermit.

Bright luminous circle line. The girls scream in amazement.

" Waaah..... "

But the hermit was astonished because the girls were still inside the circle. They should have moved into the urn it was holding (dimensional space). Because he was using magic, then he did not realize the magic of Zacko or Rey and his friends who floated together.

He took his hand off the circle. The magic light disappeared. It was also along with Zacko pulling his earth magic. Rey, and the others are back. Zacko laughed silently.

The hermit checked the circle again, while the girls were fussing about the light earlier. The magicians disguised as musicians still continued to play the accompaniment music.

The hermit came back to the front and touched the circle. Rey and her friends did the same thing. The girls came back noisily because of the luminous circle. The hermit stood up and spoke with the musicians. Then with annoyance the hermit looked at the girls one by one.

" Are any of you no longer holy ? If there is, get out of the circle. The moon will not bless a girl who is no longer holy "

Immediately there was murmur and riled words among the girls. Rey and Axie held a smile.

" Hurry out. Don't waste my time "the old hermit's getting angry.

Teana took a disappointed breath and walked out of the circle with a frown. The other two girls followed out while bowing their heads in embarrassment. While the rest of the girls were left just sneering cynically. So there are only 23 girls in the circle.

The night is very late. But Teana won't come home. He hides in a dark corner, eager to see the continuation of the process of selecting a special girl. The other two girls came home embarrassed.

The hermit again tried to move the girls into the urn. But as before, he is thwarted by Rey and her friends. The noisy girls accused each other of thinking there was still an unholy girl among them.

" Hush.... ! " snaps old hermit.

The hermit spoke again with the musicians. Then stand in front of the girls. He smiled strangely.

" It turns out there are still some of you who are not holy "

The girls are back in a storm. Each one feels holy. And that's true. The hermit was just looking for an excuse to kidnap them.

" I will throw him into the fires of hell for trying to lie to the heavens... ! " he said shouting and pulled out one of the girls from inside the circle. Then the girl disappeared (put in a urn).

Rey and friends glared in surprise. The girls started to panic. Rey looked at Axie. Axie immediately went forward and the hermit pulled him into the dimensional urn. The girls scream in horror. They don't want to be thrown into hell. The hermit looked at the girls.

(" Axie, are you okay ? ") asked Rey.

(" Yes, Miss. It's like a dimensional space. I was with that girl. But I don't know the way out ") Axie replied.

(" That means the ascetic's dimensional space. Wait until he gets you out ")

("Xenia, Axie's fine. The jar is a dimensional space. Take some girls to safety and let the rest be taken by the hermit. We can still connect later ") Rey said as she advanced forward.

Xenia and Xibo quickly had the girls join hands and moved them to safety. There are 11 girls including Rey. The girls were confused as some others disappeared all of a sudden. The hermit was also surprised to see the girls disappear. He shouted at the musicians.

(" Zacko, quickly move them ")

Rey pushed some girls so tight. Zacko darted quickly to touch them and disappeared. Rey and 5 other confused girls.

Teana stared at all of those events. The people watching from afar were also stunned and confused. They actually wanted to see the girl chosen for the moonlight. But what happened ?

Three girls were expelled because they were no longer holy, while the others disappeared somewhere. Soon the families of the girls are noisily searching for her missing daughter.

Meanwhile, Zacko, Xenia and Xibo escort the only surviving girls to each other's homes. He banned them from leaving the house for 3 days.

Inside the dimensional space it was dark. There were murmurs and cries of the captive girls. Rey wanted to take out a ball of light, but she was worried that the hermit would find out. Unknowingly the light on his forehead was getting brighter. He can observe his surroundings even dimly.

I heard some girl voices.

" What is that light ? "

" We're going there... "

" Don't... ! who knows if it is dangerous ! "

" Miss." that's Axie's voice. Rey looked. Axie came to hold a crying girl.

Some approached doubtfully. They think Rey is a demon or an evil witch. Rey just smiled, no matter what.

(" What are we going to do Miss ? ") asked Axie.

(" Just wait. Then outside to act. Sorry if you still have to disguise yourself as Axie ") Rey replied

(" No problem Miss ")

Then Rey touched the light on her forehead while chanting a spell. In his hand appeared 2 beautiful masks. He gave one to Axie.

(" Wear this. If it's true that he's the Outter Elder, then he can't recognize our faces")

Rey's mask immediately covered the light on Rey's forehead, leaving the room dark. The girls came back wailing.

" aaah.... Why is it dark again.... ? I'mscared..... "

" I am too..... "

" Silence and don't cry. Wait for the hermit to get us out later "

" If it fusses later that fake hermit will kill us "

" Oh no..... "

They sit with each other.

("Miss, why didn't Miss take out a ball of light ? ") asked Axie.

(" No. If he knows we have magic power then he will lock us up here ") Axie replied.

(" Oh.... What about Zacko, Xenia and the little fox ? ") asked Axie.

(" They've already secured 15 other girls. I can't talk to them right now. Wait later if we're all kicked out ")
