The Last Elementis's

THE TLE 28

"The house is big. But I didn't expect them to have so many boys . I had only walked two steps, but two other children had already appeared in front of me. Of course I'll secure them. Unfortunately, they are too disobedient. I can only beat those kids to death for trying to escape."

The story came to a halt as Alaric lowered his head to assess his body.

"You're wondering how I managed to fight that Malfoy?" Alaric.

"How can people praise him so much? The night he was supposed to partake in the party, he was busy alone at his desk with his bottles of wine. I think he was so drunk that he couldn't recognize people, who knew his sinful mouth still worked so well that it was so eloquent to make a mockery. I'm really sick of it. I should have broken two bottles at once in that shallow brain!"

"Alaric!"

Gerald was greeted with a cynical smile. Alaric did not hesitate to continue.

"Well..what can a drunk person rely on besides his unlucky mouth? Even before his head was drenched in blood he was already unable to point straight. Of course he is very easy to handle. I wasn't done with her yet but a woman was already screaming behind me. His poor wife. I just wanted to keep his mouth shut but the broken bottle I threw landed on his neck. Not salahku. He's not avoiding."

"You killed them?" The books in Gerald's hands were out.

"I didn't mean it at first." Alaric played his hand in the air. "However, the wines were so tempting. The air is very cold. I refuse not to drink them. I was drunk afterwards too. And that's enough to cultivate the courage to mutilate those bodies. Unfortunately I don't remember what it's like to cut up same-sex meat, but I think it's pretty fun."

"You're crazy." That's all Gerald can say.

Alaric's laughter grew. "Crazy? Sure did! We need to sacrifice a little sanity to face this cruel world. Haha don't you trust me now?"

Seeing that smile Gerald couldn't bear to look at him for too long. He got up from there without paying attention to the question. Even so, a speck of trust still tore through all of Alaric's statements. Gerald was still trying to believe that his friend wouldn't be so vile.

The sound of a debum on the door was heard when Gerald was already invisible. Alaric only looked at his departure with a face that suddenly turned flat.

...••••••...

"Wait!"

Gerald suddenly came out and slammed the door. Camelia did not have time to hold him back because the man had already left.

"Where are you going?" Sean's holding.

"Go catch up. Release."

"Don't—" Sean tried to hold it but Camelia had already managed to escape. "He doesn't like to be disturbed!"

That shout was still vaguely Camelia heard. He yelled back, "I don't care!"

Sean was struck between astonishment and astonishment, but next his brows had already shrunk. "Why did I not feel the aura this time?"

...•••••••...

Niles was riding a horse. He had just averted his gaze from looking at someone when a lump of snow had already hit the back of his head.

"aww. Who's that prankster?!"

His emotions have been stirred. He was already preparing to clench his fists, but Camelia suddenly appeared in front of him.

"Down" Camelia ordered.

Niles rolled his eyeballs. While cleaning his hair he came down lazily.

"Oh you. There's a—"

"You see a man through here? Ah Gerald if you know her."

Niles' emotions dropped a little. He looked down, looking at Camelia suspiciously.

"He went that way."

Niles pointed to the left side where he had previously seen Gerald disappear.

"Why are you looking for him?" Instead of getting an answer, he is surprised by Camelia who suddenly rides her horse.

"I'll borrow it for a second."

"Don't—"

Niles was helpless when Camelia had already driven her horse. The woman simply waved her hand without turning around. Niles' knees were limp. His face changed.

"That's not a horse you can borrow at will!"

...•••••...

This direction he took was towards the city of Fordland. Camelia wasn't sure if this was the right way. Gerald's trail he no longer finds. Previously Camelia only followed a black animal that resembled a cat. Although her memory is already faint, Camelia still believes it is Gerald in the form of his animal. However, after a long journey and arriving in a forest, the woman no longer saw any traces of anyone.

"Where did he disappear?"

The bridle he had already pulled when Camelia felt her footing rather muddy with a different taste. He finally had time to close his robe. He did not regret going to split the road in the midst of this snowfall, but he was angry with himself for complaining since then with a piercing cold.

"Damn, since when have I been this weak."

Camelia just went down and assessed around.

There's a mound of color behind the bleached snow down there. As he shifted with his boots, he finally found out that it was a pile of rotting fruit.

Seeing those rotten fruits once again, Camelia suddenly said, "Ragash. That old vampire foraging all the way here?" Wiggling the dirty soles of her boat, Camelia continued, "she has to learn to clean up the rest of her food!"

Camelia no longer thought about it then returned to her intentions. Just as he was about to shout calling someone's name, that person had already pulled him from behind. Their views met within a distance of only one inch. Camelia's sharpness changed a little, it was too sudden.

"Why are you following?" Gerald's voice was cold and flat.

Camelia clucked instead. "If you knew I was after you, why didn't you stop? I almost froze to death."

Camelia's arm was already loose, but in that short thought she immediately caught Gerald's arm. Camelia's face was instantly full of relief. "Fortunately you're here."

Gerald was almost used to the sudden attack. He only looked at the hands that did not know the place with a slanted look. "Why are you following me?"

"I'm not done yet..." Camelia tries to grab him again, but Gerald doesn't give her a chance.

"My jawab. Why are you following me?!"

The high tone that sounded finally slapped Camelia's slight consciousness. He knew now was not the time to joke. He must find an excuse.

He took a step back and began to quibble.

"You still ask me to follow you? Haven't I told you all this time? I'm me—"

"Still using reason by liking me?!"

Camelia's arm was suddenly clamped hard. That pressure created a new sensation amidst the piercing cold. However, the warm flow that radiates from there makes it survive.

Undaunted Camelia replied, "Well, I do like you."

For the first time Camelia saw Gerald grinning. The handle once again slipped off.

"You think I'm stupid? I can still clearly see your veiled intention."

Camelia smiled. "I'm not lying. I do like you.... Covert intentions you said? Is it wrong to like someone with a certain intention? Isn't it natural like that? Everyone likes it for a reason. Whether it's because it wants something or something else."

I knew he didn't like me.

Gerald's grinning deepens."What are you looking for from me?"

"You're good-looking. So I like you."

"I'm not stupid. Say."

"I love the energy you give me every time we touch." Camelia did not feel it was something that needed to be covered up. So he kept talking. "I'm a crippled witch. Somehow every time we touch there is something that makes the energy in my body increase. I think it can make me heal. So I decided to like you."

Gerald was quite surprised by the words, but he was more distrustful of his last words.

"With all that said you can still say you like me?"

Camelia felt that there was nothing wrong with her words. "certain. I've been judging. Everyone likes it for a reason. Since I need something from you, then that means I like you."

Gerald couldn't bear to not be impassive, was this woman that stupid?

"Do not conclude." By this time, Gerald's emotions had already faded. However his growing strength had a connection to the woman before him. Everything is not clear. He can't just ignore it.

"What do you want?" Gerald asked.

Camelia was a bit surprised by the change in intonation, but she quickly replied, "Let me follow you."

"All right."

Of course Camelia did not expect that she would immediately get approval. So he immediately narrowed his eyes and asked, "It's that easy?"

Gerald did not answer.

Camelia was not satisfied. "Tumben. You're not usually this good ... Don't you like me?"

Gerald's eyes instantly widened.

"Don't hope!"

...•••••••...

Meanwhile at the Tirian residence, Niles was kneeling before the host.

The usual arrogant face this time looked extremely riled up.

"Hows it? Does Dark eat well?"

Niles is full of doubts. "I-iya Sir. But ..."

Hearing this answer, Tirian felt unkind. He said, "I wouldn't be happy if you lost it."

Niles expected it. Dark is Tirian's favorite horse. Of course eliminating Dark was the same as seeking death. Although the horse had not completely disappeared, but it was not on his side now, Niles remained unsettled.

"That's Master. Someone took him away."

"bring him? Who?"

"He's a woman. Her name is Camelia, she's a friend of my sister's. I met him earlier. That woman is stubborn. I've banned him but he took Dark from me and took him away."

Tirian's expression was initially flat. However, the moment he heard the name mentioned, somehow his displeasure evaporated a little.

Camellias? So he knew her.

Tirian folded his hands. "Hmm...can I be happy now? But I'm still not calm that Dark hasn't come back. Can you guarantee it?"

Niles was not sure either. "I, I'll be looking for him soon."

"I might be able to forgive you. If you want to do something for me."

Hearing this Niles immediately raised his head. "certain. Whatever it is I'm gonna do."

Tirian thought for a moment. "Mmm.. The woman you mentioned earlier, you know her well?"

Niles did not expect Tirian to mention this. Her feelings grew even more uneasy when she saw the man's gaze.
