Lyan nodded slowly. “In the near future, you will know soon, Lilith.”
Lilith felt a little confused as Lyan's expression suddenly changed after she finished speaking. ‘What's with him?’
Lyan took a deep breath, trying to eliminate the complicated feelings that suddenly haunted her. “I'm asking you not to do anything after knowing it, Lilith.”
Lilith could see the young man's eyes implying sadness. He did not know what the young man meant to do nothing. He also felt no need to interfere in the affairs of the young man because he still hated him. “Good, Tu-Tu-Tuan.”
Seeing Lilith still stuttering as she called out to him, Lyan slightly smiled. “I suggest you practice calling me right, Lilith. If you don't want me to think you're the same as Youl, try as soon as possible to be able to call me smoothly.”
Lilith grumbled inwardly before saying, “Understood, Tu-Tu-Tuan. I'll learn to call you right in the future.”
Lyan smiled back. “You can go now, Lilith. I want to be alone now.”
“Good, Tu-Tu-Tuan.” Lilith then disappeared from there.
After Lilith's departure, Lyan began to look at the night sky decorated with stars. Sometimes he breathed a long sigh because he felt that his heart was getting dissolved in the sadness of the problems he had to face in the future. After being satisfied to spend his time alone, Lyan immediately left the place.
*****
Two days later.
Lyan, Laxus, Raysmith and Ursula walked towards the restaurant to fill their bellies. Lyan had wanted to invite his other colleagues to lunch, but seeing that they were busy with their respective affairs, Lyan decided not to disturb them.
At first Laxus did not want to come because he was just a spirit that did not need food. After all, if he went there, he would just stand watching them eat and it was very boring for him. However, because Lyan forced him to come along, Laxus inevitably went with them.
Arriving at the restaurant, Lyan could see Raysmith and Ursula looking so close. So close they always talk together, as if the world now only has two of them.
‘You see, Elders?’ Lyan sent a telepathy to Laxus who was standing behind him. ‘I've guessed they have a special relationship. That's why I'm asking you not to be a mosquito here.’
Laxus frowned. Confused with Lyan who can be sensitive to other people's relationships. Though she herself was insensitive to the attitude Yuna had shown her lately.
Although Laxus admits Raysmith and Ursula are very close. He dislikes it because he thinks Raysmith doesn't fit Ursula.
‘Must be, Lyan. Raysmith is ugly. Where could Ursula want to be with him.’
‘Masa, anyway? Om that would be handsome too when viewed.’
‘You blind or what, Lyan? Raysmith is far from handsome, you know! That handsome one is like me!’
‘As far as you go, Elders.’ Lyan lazily responded to Laxus in this matter. ‘Omong-by the way, we leave them alone, yuk, Elders.’
‘You didn't finish your meal?’ Laxus saw that Lyan's plate still left food.
Lyan stood up from her seat. ‘I'm full. Let's go.’
Lyan and Laxus leave Raysmith and Ursula to leave the restaurant. Raysmith was delighted and waved his hand, asking them to leave quickly.
“Already, Elders, let it go. It is like that.”
Laxus breathed. “Omong-by the way, where are you taking me?”
“Wind Hill, Elders. The weather and atmosphere are quite comfortable. So we can speak with satisfaction there.”
Laxus frowned. “What's wrong with you? Invite me to talk alone on the hill? It's not like you usually are.”
“Ah, we, right, haven't talked much since you came out of my soul room, Elders. There's no harm in us spending time together once.”
Laxus smiled as he stroked Lyan's head. “Yes, if that's my student's request, I want to not have to obey.”
When they arrived at the Hill of Wind, the two of them sat down by the large tree that was there. A few moments later Lyan started talking.
“About how many years we've known each other, huh? Do you remember that, Elders?” asked Lyan with a smile.
“About five years maybe?” answer Laxus. “I remember you were just a little boy who used to whine. But now you've grown up and grown into someone very strong far beyond me. As a teacher, I admire you, Lyan.” He stroked Lyan's head.
Lyan simply smiled before saying, “Omong-by the way, what about your body, Elders? Didn't Endless say he would help you find him with the help of our other colleagues?”
“Yes, the original plan was like that. The problem was that none of our colleagues at the time met the criteria to help me find my body again. At least they should be Earth Hermits because my body is located in a quite dangerous place.” Laxus breathed.
Hearing Laxus' words made Lyan feel like she was being pricked by a needle. He smiled bitterly as he said, “Is that right, Elders? If it's true that the condition to help you is the Earth Hermit .. won't it be when I come back now, you can ask me for help?”
“Ah, I did plan like that. But you, right, just came back not too long ago. You must be so tired. At least I want to let you rest for about a few months first, Lyan,”, Laxus said.
Lyan stood up while looking towards the sky with a sad look. He took his breath for a moment before saying, “Why do you keep lying, Elders?”
Laxus was surprised to hear Lyan's words. He immediately stood up. “What do you mean, Lyan?”
Lyan turned towards Laxus with a sad look. He took a deep breath so that he would be strong enough to say the next word.
“Christ of souls and Catastrophe .. why did you give all that to me, Elders?!” exclaim Lyan.
Laxus was silent for a moment.
“He-Hey, Lyan. Looks like you're wrong pa..”
“I thank you for thanks to that soul crystal you strengthened, I managed to become an Xora.” Lyan smiled bitterly with teary eyes. “But, the Problem of Catastrophe .. How can you do it, Elders?! Why would you give such a curse to me?!” lyan is back.
Lyan's words made Laxus go back silent for a moment.
“Te-Quiet, Lyan .. I really don't understand what he means..” Laxus wants to hold Lyan's shoulder, but Lyan quickly brushes over his hand.
“Set!” Lyan exclaimed loudly before clenching her teeth and clenching her hands hard. “Why do you keep lying to me?! What exactly was your goal all along, Elders?! No, not Elders. Should I call you the Demon God Atem so that you will admit everything?!”
