The Adventure of the Light-Bearer

CH. 35 - Can I Be... Your Slave's?

Levin stood on the ground bathed in sunlight that morning. He quickly looked back and looked for Llemas in the lake, but he was not there. Levin stepped closer to the lake while taking out the crystal in his hand.

"Llemas? Did you hear me?" levin asked in his heart. His senses could not sense Llemas' presence anywhere, but he could feel his crystal pieces.

Levin looked down in shock as he felt the crystal being stepped on his leg. He retreated, then the crystals glowed and fused with each other.

"Llemas? Where's she?" levin asked in his heart.

Merasus walked towards Levin. "Levin's... What crystal is that?" merasus asked as he pointed at the crystal with a face of fear rather than confusion.

"This.. Mm.. This is my father's crystal, I don't know what this crystal is." Levin said with a forced smile, he then turned his gaze to the lake again. The lake became calm and peaceful, the monstrous revolving energy there was gone, the water flat was not shaken in the slightest.

"I... I can feel the power within... The power I've felt before." said Merasus. "Can I hold it?" merasus' eyes stared at the crystal like a drunken man. His facial muscles were squeezed and a feeling appeared stirring in his chest.

"Me.. Graze?" levin asked as he retreated backwards, while Merasus continued to advance towards him slowly as if being pulled by something.

"You.. It's fine, right? Hey!" Levin pushed Merasus until he fell down as he almost held the crystal. His entire body instantly squeezed, he shook his head on the ground.

"Crystals... Calemiara." said Merasus softly while trying to stand up. He then retreated backwards while looking at Levin sharply. He hid his hands back.

Groped and smiled. "I'm sorry Levin. I seem to be too exhausted because of where I've run out. Mmm, are you going home now?" tanya Merasus with a slightly seducing face.

Levin breathed a sigh of relief. He smiled at Merasus. "Yes, I think I'm going back to the village. I actually have something to ask you, do you know where Llemas went?"

"Llemas? The monster that was being dined? Just when you focused on looking at the corpse of the lizard I felt it shrink, when I looked at her she turned into a naked girl and ran after she put something on the ground. Maybe he's ashamed of you, even though his face looks more rushed than embarrassed anyway." Smiling again, now sweeter.

"Transformed into a human? How come?" levin asked inwardly while daydreaming. Merasus' embrace broke the daydream and made him fully aware. Levin stared at Merasus who was hugging him tightly.

Levin pulls Merasus by force to escape. "A.. What are you doing Mera?"

"Mera? Wow, this is the first time anyone has called me by that name. I'm so happy." said Merasus excitedly as he hugged Levin tighter.

"Woi.. What exactly are you?"

Merasus let go of his embrace and looked towards Levin with a sweet smile. Her face was indeed very pretty, her eyes were sparkling blue and her hair was short a little curly. The shape of his face is also perfect, his smile further beautifies the aesthetics and energy he radiates.

"Do you know who I am, Levin?" asked Merasus in a soft voice.

Levin's cheeks are a little flushed. His eyes were turned to the left in shame. "Ka.. You're a merasus, right? Why why?"

"Merasus is my name, but do you know who I am? What do I do and where do I live?"

"Ma.. Where do I know... I just got here."

"A.. Whahuh? Why?"

"I feel a strong destiny within you. I also feel a sense of security and affection in your heart. I'm just a useless person who's just being trash to the villagers here, maybe we can work together to defeat the evils and save the people. Anyhow..." Merasus pulled out a small knife under his cloak and pointed it at Levin while kneeling. "This is the decision of my life, if you accept me please lift me up and embrace me. But if you refuse me, then stab me with this knife."

"A.. What the fuck? Holding it would probably expose his life to danger... But, if I refuse it I should stab him?" Levin's confused. "It will be risky for me and for him if I take it, the journey will probably be slower. I reckon... I refused it."

Levin walked forward and scratched his neck. "Emmm, I guess, stop joking... Let's just go home."

Sensing being silent for a moment, he then raised his head and looked at Levin sadly. "I think it's a rejection" he said as he changed his position to please. He then opened the small knife from the lid. "If you don't want to stab me, I think I'll do it myself." He swung his hand forward.

Levin quickly held the knife to prevent it. "Baa.. All righty! Ta's.. But don't blame me if you die... I have a dangerous assignment you should know that." Levin took the little knife and closed it and secured it.

Merasus then changed his position back to kneeling. "You haven't officially picked me up" he said, silent.

"What's? Why?"

Merasus was silent. He did not say a word and just knelt down.

"O.. Oh yes, I should lift him up and hug him... You fucking bitch."

Levin advanced slowly to the woman. His heart was pounding and his face was red. He bowed his feet and lifted up Merasus like a fisherman carrying a fishing net. Merasus closed his eyes, his facial expression looking like a bride who gave her life to her partner. Levin tightly closed his lips together and shook his small head.

"Just whatever..."

Levin hugged her loosely and briefly.

"Have you? Now can I go to the village?" levin said a little upset.

"I? You mean... We were? The master?" said Merasus while leaning his body forward and close his hands up.

"Come Levin... Clea's more cute."

"God, Master... Because now that I am your slave, I will do anything for you. Even I can carry you to the village if you want." said Merasus as he turned and rode towards Levin. Levin swallowed his saliva, his breathing began to feel heavy and his head began to be muddled with strange thoughts.

"I'll go there myself!" levin shouted as he walked quickly towards the village. Merasus ran after him.

"I have a request, can you call me Mera?" ask Merasus.

Levin shook his little head. "As far as you go."
