The Ice Heart's
Episode 14 - Meet Windy
“Alright we continue the story,” said Rei.
“You must have known about the perpetrators of the tragic death in the Kingdom of the Fire Clan,” Rei continued.
“According to the book I read, the culprits are your grandmother, your aunt, and your cousin,” Claire replied.
Rei chuckles. “I initially believed it too. I came out of the main family lineage because Jun's father rose to become king, and Jun automatically became the next successor. I was always filled with hatred for the Water Clan, for Clara, until I almost graduated from the Clan Academy,”
One windy night, I woke up and met him.
****
Two years ago…
Rei wakes up in his dorm room, sweat drenching his forehead due to a recurring nightmare on his head.
It was a windy night. The wind made Rei's clothes dried on the balcony of the dormitory flutter and fall from the hanger.
“Aduh,” grunts Rei.
Rei finally woke up, wanting to pick up the clothes before being carried away flying down from the balcony.
“Outline Xi,”
The whisper made Rei surprised. Rei instantly mounted the horses, preparing to attack, but he had absolutely no idea what he was going to fight.
“Son of Xi Diana, the only defective descendant of Xi,”
“Who are you?! Show yourself! Don't take my mom!” exclaiming Rei threw the clothes he picked up in all directions.
“Pacify yourself, I want to talk to you,”
“Show yourself!” exclaim Rei who is getting emotional.
“Nature is very dislike with excessive emotions, you will not be able to clearly connect with me if it does not calm you down,”
Rei gave a rough snort then returned to the mattress and covered his ears with a pillow.
“There are many truths you should know,”
“Enough!” seu Rei with trembling hands.
“Descendants of the chosen Xi,”
“Go!”
“Not all things as they seem, the evidence has misled you,”
“GO!!!!”
“Hei, Rei!” call Zack after pulling the pillow that covered Rei's head.
“Za-zack?” said Rei with a body that was shaking violently.
“What's his dream getting worse?” asked Zack to pat Rei on the head.
Rei cried sobbing, a condition that only he showed to those he truly believed in.
During his time at the Clan Academy, Rei often meditated to calm himself down. But because of the explosive emotions that he did not release, making his mood predictable by feeling the air around him. The energy of his Wind Clan was incredible, but it was often lost control because Rei often had difficulty maintaining the nature of the Wind Clan that had to be calm and dynamic.
“Maybe you are the next chosen one,” Zack said after hearing Rei's story.
“Hah?”
“When we were little, your mother once told me why she could be locked up in Xi Palace and become a wasted princess right?”
Rei nodded.
“Before marrying your father, your mother was locked up in the palace not because of her deformed legs from birth, but because he is a descendant of Xi who was chosen by the Spirit of Wind in order to speak with the Spirit of Wind,”
“The chosen one will be targeted by many bad people, when all the chosen ones are gathered, will open the gates to extraordinary powers, whether this assumption comes from where,”
“Then?” ask Rei.
“After your mother dies, then the Spirit of Wind will choose another descendant of Xi, and you will be chosen!” answer Zack with confidence.
Rei was silent for a moment.
“Rei, those spirits witnessed everything, the Wind Spirit definitely wants to tell you something!” said Zack.
Rei exhaled softly and began to concentrate by closing his eyes.
After a long time of silence, a small white rhombus-shaped mark appeared on Rei's forehead, like emitting light. Zack himself was amazed to see it.
The atmosphere around Rei suddenly became silent. When Rei opened his eyes, all around him were pure white clouds.
Where'sme? Am I in Grandfather Xi's palace? – Inner Rei stared at the surroundings in confusion.
“It's good to see you again, descendant Xi,”
Rei looked at the source of the sound. Sirus clouds that swirl because of the wind, like forming a human figure.
“Larom Xiying called me Windy, I am the Wind Spirit who has given my power to Larom Xiying, whom he passed down to his descendants from the Xi clan,"
Ah, then what should I do? Hi Wind Spirit! It's so nice to meet you! I see? – clumsy inner Rei.
“You know why me and other spirits gave our power to Larom Xiying?”
“To save the world from chaos right?” reply impressed Rei confirmed the answer.
“Yes, but no matter how much Larom Xiying is human, he realizes how much power he can die, so we allow him to share his power with his children so that the fight for truth continues, on condition that we stay in touch with them. Why do you think we spirits have to choose certain people in order to get in touch with us? Why should we contact you?”
Rei fell silent, not understanding what he was going to answer.
“Because we know, humans are very easy to flip through the heart, there is no guarantee when it has great strength they will not be greedy anymore.”
“We only choose those who are truly pure want to use their power in goodness, when he chooses to turn his way into the path of evil, he said, then we'll cut ties with them and find another liaison,”
Rei nodded in understanding.
“Why did you choose me? I'm not a good controller,” asked Rei.
“Young man, that's why I want to tell you something,”
Rei was silent, as if indicating that he would listen to everything Windy said.
“You're so easy to say, do you love your cousin so much that you try to find an antidote that she's the culprit?”
“Clara had a clear heart, there would be no way she would have such bad thoughts,” Rei replied as she scrunched her forehead, holding back tears.
“Then keep it,"
Huh huh? So Clara really isn't the culprit?! – Inner Rei.
“Mon Clara is the person chosen by the Water Spirit, Oceana. Oceana is still protecting the boy until now and does not leave him. So there's no way he's doing such a bad thing,”
Grandma Dena, Aunt Hana, and Clara just disappeared after that incident, if that Water Spirit of Oceana was still protecting Clara, that means Clara is still alive?! – Inner Rei.
“What does that mean Clara, my grandmother and aunt are still alive?!”
“There are some things I can't tell you, humans have to try to figure it out for themselves, but clearly Mon Clara who is still a descendant of La is still alive today,”
Rei sat down and cried. There was a happy feeling in her heart because in addition to knowing that it wasn't Clara, she also got word that Clara was still alive.
“Don't be happy first, there is a more surprising reality of all this,”
Rei wiped his tears, trying to get up.
“I will take you to see everything, for your decision after seeing it, will have a great impact on the balance of this world,”
