Story of a girl who wanted EVERYTHING

Chapter 8

After the monster incident, the whole Palace was upside down. Everyone was anxious by the fact that somehow monsters broke through the barriers. Well, soon enough, they realized that those monsters weren't even that strong. Someone or something must have broken the barriers... probably those monsters were just a "welcome gift", a way to say "hello, I'm here and I'm a danger to you".

And if something had shaken up the Clan of the Heaven Seers, then that something had shaken up our whole country. The Clans started a Council meeting... so I was asked to appear in front of them on Saturday, which was two days away.

- What would they want from you? – Hakare asked after we got the news. We were all sitting in our room, alongside with Tyler, who sneaked into the women's living quarter. He decided to stick with me until I went to sleep, because he very well knew that my headache was only worse and worse until that.

- What would they want from her?! Do you even know how rare clairvoyants are? And what incredible powers they could have? – Kianna rolled her eyes because of Hakare's lack of knowledge.

- Well, I don't have any incredible power – I shrugged.

- Girl, you had just foretold that monsters appeared in the Palace of Shreddenwood! Before the invisibility spell wore off! – Kianna looked at me in disbelief. – Even if this is all you can do... you're still more valuable than anyone in this room.

- Stop this. I don't even like this – I shook my head.

- How can you not like this? It makes you so special – Hakare sighed.

- We may envy the plus side of the clairvoyance, but you guys aren't the one who had just taken the fourth painkiller drink since we all arrived back – Sarah pointed out. She also knew that my powers were usually repressed so deeply... and I had a reason for it.

- Those monsters' presence was so strong that it even overcame my repressing – I murmured. But Tyler shook his head.

- Those monsters weren't that strong. I believe you felt the presence of the person who sent them here – he said.

- There are rumors that the Heaven Seers are fearing that an enemy appeared – Sarah joined the theory of Tyler.

- Then we had just got into a big disadvantage. And you had just become a target – Kianna looked at me.

- Why? – Hakare asked.

- If someone had sent those monsters here, I'm sure they watched them carefully. If they did, they must have noticed that you had seen the monsters before anyone else. If they aren't stupid... and someone who can break the barriers of a Palace can't be stupid... then they know that there is a clairvoyance here – Kianna explained.

- That monster's eye... it felt strange – I remembered suddenly. How it seemed like those eyes were staring into mine... while monsters usually just rampaged without thoughts.

- This sounds so bad – Hakare said.

- Well, we can't worry over this while we don't know anything for sure – I said suddenly. – I feel a little bit better... what do you think about going for a dinner?

- How can you have an appetite after everything that happened? – Hakare asked helplessly. But me and Ty found food sacred. Must have been the street kid years.

- She always has an appetite – Tyler laughed.

- Winnie is right. We can sit here and worry about something unknown... or we can go and get some food, so Hakare's stomach won't make even more noise at night... her devilish snoring is just more than enough.
