LIFEBOOK

Episode 14

The situation is getting more complicated. The room that was neatly arranged, now no nonsense. The chairs surrounding the large table were swept away and smashed into the walls of the room, the magnificent large glass that adorned the room, all smashed.

The entire crowd had been evacuated, leaving only Me, Sharman, Lucia, the Military Council, and the three people in front of me.

"What's your purpose here?!" Sharman first spoke, asking.

We are combat-ready, the Military Council has made protectors around this room. The protector is like a bubble protecting this room, so that the impact of the fight can be isolated.

It seems, the Military Council is also a power user, but, I don't know what kind of power it has. He looks strong, and can be relied on.

The girl looked at Sharman, and then pointed to me, "Don't be too tense, I just want to visit you as a guest" replied one girl, as she slowly stepped on the white marble.

Her movements were extremely graceful, like a princess waking up from her long slumber. Followed by both services behind him.

The girl sat down in a chair, relaxed. Like nothing's happening.

"visit me? Do you know me? And have we ever been to see you? I don't think so" I replied in astonishment.

The girl sitting on the chair, as well as the two maids standing behind her, looked at me. As if I was making sure of something.

"Of course, we never met, let alone knew each other. In fact, this is the first time we met" The girl calmly answered my question.

"Wantas, why?" That's not my voice, Lucia speaking.

Meanwhile the Military Council, and Sharman are observing our talks.

The girl stood up from her chair, "First of all I must apologize for making a fuss. Starting from the events in the center of the market, the skyscraper, or currently. I did that to trick the Death Book user, but take it easy, I was careful that my actions did not cause casualties" After he finished speaking, he bowed, regretting.

The two maids standing behind him, bowed their bodies.

"What?! Aren't you the user of the death book?" Sharman denied the girl's statement.

I'm also surprised, if this girl is not a death book user, then who? So many questions that came to my head.

Lucia and Sharman watched from behind, not interfering with the conversation.

The girl looked back at me, "you, the user of the book of life, right?" The girl asked me.

Surprisingly, he could find out just by looking at me. I didn't activate it at all. Maybe the waiter behind her, Shannon told the girl.

"Yeah, but how do you know?" I asked back, buying time.

"I have many eyes" replied the girl briefly.

The girl stood up from her chair. He closed his eyes. His body glowed softly, the longer it grew brighter. The green light is no stranger to me. Suddenly, a book started floating around the girl. Her silver hair was unraveling, like being hit by a gentle breeze, it was extremely beautiful.

All of these events seem familiar to me, is this really, really. I was surprised by all this.

Lucia who had been paying attention since earlier, seemed to be uncomfortable with this. The City Council was confused by the situation. Sharman was still observing the situation.

"Don't, you-" I can't hide my surprise.

The green light coming from the girl further illuminated the entire room.

Already satisfied with this, the girl disabled the book, instantly the green light that filled the room faded. Until finally, it was lost perfectly.

"Life Books. But how can it be?" Lucia who had been uncomfortable since then, asked her uneasiness.

Sharman and I, too, wanted to ask.

The Military Council simply fell silent, trying to understand the situation.

"I came here to ask you that question, why are you asking what we're going to ask" The girl looked at Sharman, not liking.

We all have the same question. How could there be 2 Lifebook users in the same timeline? That should be impossible.

We are confused, negotiations are at a dead end.

"Looking at your reaction, it seems that you are also confused, what about you the user of the Book of Life, Lutfi"

I nodded, not knowing anything.

"Perhaps it's because Lutfi comes from another timeline, if so, it really allows the user of the Book of Life to be twofold" Lucia conveyed what she thought.

That might be the problem. I never thought until then, Lucia is really a smart girl.

"That makes sense, as I thought, there must be time-book user meddling" Sharman explained.

That might be true, Sharman also had time to mention him during the meeting. Everyone who attended the meeting knew I was from the past. But they didn't care about it, focusing more on the matter of the Death Book users.

"But why have you been making such a fuss lately" It wasn't me, Sharman, or Lucia. It was the voice of the Military Council.

"Death Book Users are currently planning something very terrible. I don't know where he is right now, but the plan he's devising will completely destroy the World. And the reason I made a fuss was to lure the other life book users, I planned to cooperate with all of them. But it seems my plan is not right. Sorry- "The girl explained.

"That's not right, I should have apologized, misinterpreted my master's wishes" The girl's ministry that this time spoke. It was Shannon, the person we fought before.

The situation became awkward, I didn't know what to do.

"I understand the situation. All right, we're meeting this time. We'll meet again in the near future, in a more normal, more natural, and friendlier way" the Military Council took the decision, breaking a few minutes' stretch in this room.

"Alright, we'll meet one week down the town center, at a restaurant known for its delicacies. We don't have much time, just one month left for the death book user to execute his plan. That's all I know. You know, I got a lot of eyes" That's the girl's answer, "Oh, I almost forgot. My name is Ciel. I hope you remember it, User of the Book of Life, Lutfi" As soon as the girl disappeared, followed by her two servants.

The room just left quiet. We all sit down weak. How not, the girl gave off an intimidating aura.

The City Council shattered the bubble-shaped barrier that the plop sounded like a bubble bursting.

We rested in the room that was provided by the service of this building. The building has dozens of rooms, so we can stay and rest here.

Lucia's cleaning up, we look fucked up right now. The Military Council and Sharman are busy returning to discuss the matter further.

The following days we relaxed, enjoying our free days, before the busy day to come.
