Truth Seekers

Chapter 22: The Elements of Darkness

Ah ... why did my body move on its own when I saw that boy in danger. But ... somehow I don't feel sorry.

The archiven slowly fell to the ground. Dom who still could not move his body forced himself to go to the Archiven even though he was crawling.

“Uncle dragon!!!” Dom tried to use his stomach to crawl despite a broken rib.

With a face full of tears and dirt that dirty his clothes, Dom continued to crawl to get close to the Archiven in order to save him.

Sadness, pain, and overflowing emotions. That's what Dom is currently experiencing. Although the distance between them was quite close, but to Dom it felt like a very long time. He continued to endure the pain from the wounds on his ribs making his body very difficult to move.

“Bokah, you don't have to force yourself.” Archiven opened his eyes and saw Dom crawling towards him painfully.

My father and mother used to help me, and now ..is my life just a burden to others??

“Why do you keep protecting me?! I'm just a kid who can't even master magic. I'm just a useless kid, but .. Why are so many people always helping me! Even now ...”

The Archiven only smiled looking at Dom who was still blaming himself.

The potential of this child is incredible. Maybe, when he grows up, he'll be like you ... Flower.

“My name is Archiven, I am a mystical beast with the element of darkness.”

What's?! A monster has a unique level element??

“The darkness element is one of the strongest. As a result ...many humans are trying to kill me and take the core of my life. Therefore, I prefer to stay here. But ... maybe this will be the last time I am in this place.”

“What are you talking about! take it easy, I'll treat you, uncle just have to hang on.. I'll be there any minute.” While crawling, Dom tries to keep smiling even though his smile is just a lie.

Dom couldn't stop his tears, especially after the Archiven said that. Dom himself already knew that such a wound was impossible to heal in the usual way. Only, he wished there was a miracle.

After crawling for quite a while, Dom's hand managed to touch the Archiven's body. Afterwards he tried to treat the wound on the Archiven's body, although it was already impossible because the wound was too severe.

While trying to close the wound, Dom tried to smile even though his facial expression depicted a deep sadness.

“You don't have to lie to yourself, son, my wound is already impossible to treat.” said Archiven who was sorry to see Dom trying to stay cheerful.

The Archiven then held Dom's head while putting on the same smile as Dom. But ... It is also a sign that he will leave soon.

“You don't need to do anything .. because, my body will soon disappear. But before that, I'll give you something.”

The Archiven Arm suddenly gave off an extremely powerful aura with a dark black color.

I think this kid is the guy Flower meant ....

“Uncle??” asked Dom who did not understand why he was expending such a huge amount of energy.

"Humans have a core where they can use magic, while in monsters that have elemental elements. Humans call it the core of life.

“Many are after me because of this. Now ... I'll entrust this to you. Be stronger and protect those around you." The Archiven continued to transfer its energy to a single point.

“I won't take it!!! I just want uncle to be back to how he was!!”

Without listening to Dom's words, the Archiven began to channel his energy into Dom's body. Because it absorbed such a huge amount of energy, Dom had to feel tremendous pain.

It might hurt a lot, but trust me this power can make you stronger.

“UWAAAAAAA!!!” dom's scream for getting the mana core from the Archiven. Afterwards .. Dom returned unconscious.

It hurts so much .. It feels like my body can explode at any time.

After successfully channeling his energy to Dom. The Archiven's body slowly began to become a wisp of light, as well.

“Sring ...,” Archiven body starts to become small particles.

I'm sorry I couldn't keep my promise ....

“Hmm die like this .. not bad either.”
