Runaway Alpha

I am not sure if I can still deny what she said. Everything that came out of her mouth makes sense. Me being cursed by the goddess… I am not that surprised. That is a thing that is not surprising since even when I was just a little, I never once apologize to the Goddess of the moon about my thinking towards her.

That goddess of the moon, I hated her. I may be the male wolf in her prophecy but it doesn’t mean that I shall give her my respect. The reason why my life have been difficult is because of her.

“but you said that something is helping me?”

“yes… The time you say that this scar revealed in your right leg, even I is surprised by the fact that you are still living by now. If… Not for that thing that is helping you… You are already long dead”

Is it somehow related to sparkling little light that is entering my body? I mean… Everytime I see it, their count lessen. If so… If it is really them.. Then… What would happen if their number turns to zero… Will I die?

“Do you have any idea on who is the one helping you?”

“the little lights”

“huh?”NôvelDrama.Org owns this text.

“There was a pile of lights showing themselves to me.”

And so I told her everything about those little lights. How I first saw it. How it entered in my skin. How long has it been since I last saw it. At first I thought that it was just mere lights that have a connection with this weird thing on my right leg but it seems like that wasn’t the case.

“Essence of your power”

“what do you mean? It is the first time I head of it”

“of course. That is a thing that is not your call to know. Only selected people can have the right to read such things about that. With your state… I can say that even if you have the world collection of books… It is hard to attain. The number of books that is containing things about that is something that you can count in your fingers”

What she said is complicated. Can’t she just tell it already? She will tell it to me anyway. Can’t she?

“Do you believe in things they called as fate?”

“…”

“some things are really meant to happen. It is as if it is already written on the stars. And do you know why that thing happens?”

I dare not say anything. What I need is to listen to know those things that she will say.

“because of fate. Destiny”

Isn’t it just a mere fables? I mean flowery words to make stories much interesting? I didn’t know that it is a thing that exists in this real life.

“Essence of your power is the power you had before. It will just be brought back to you as time passes by. People do get strong because of experience. But do you think that it is just like that?”

She then started to fly as small fog of glitters followed her.

“People get strong not because of experience. They get strong because the essence of their power is being brought back in their body. Exercising, doing combat, learning things, making progress, all of those are nothing but a mere key to let their essence be back into them. That is also why some people, even with such hardship, never improves. Aren’t you curious about that? You can’t deny it…”

I want to make this flying elf into pulp since every little thing that she says truly makes sense.

People struggling to enhance their training regimen, people living their life gaining knowledge… Truly, not everyone can be on top. No matter how hard they work, no matter how deep they struggle… Some are this unfortunate people that doesn’t have any capabilities to break through their power.

I didn’t notice it was like that. I am acting all so mighty but in reality, I am lacking in many things.

There is one thing I must know… I need information. It is not that I should rely on this little thing. Truly, she is a great help for me to understand many things but relying on others is not my thing. After all, there is no way she will tell everything that she knew to me if I don’t give her anything in exchange.

The fact that Lhana asked me to be here seems like a false illusion. The man who show himself right before me seems to be the one behind that letter. To think that he would have the right and qualification to use and make a fool out of my brother, he deceive my family.

I have many things to learn. Now that I remembered it, I am such an idiot. I shouldn’t take a small break for every single time is precious. I should have idly move even if I can say that there is a big changes in my body, that is too little. I wouldn’t even stand a chance against my father.

“i know you have lots of question”

The little elf mumbled as she talk to me while floating on the air. I am not sure if what is the appropriate thing to say for what she said is really true. I can not deny the fact that I have many questions in my mind.

Even so, I doubt she would say it for me.

There is no way she would. Judging by her actions, she is greedy. She wants things that even I can’t attain. There is no way I can just say that

” tell me anything you want and I shall grant it. In exchange tell me everything that you know of”

There was a deep disappointment in me for I can see how she will ask for something in exchange.

“I know someone who you can ask. Even if I want to tell you everything that I know, I think that is barely a one in the hundred of percent about that knowledge of that person. Judging by how you seems to be in that state then I will say it for free without asking anything”

“I can’t give you what you want so no- wait. What did you say?”
