clash after clash occurred as the fight reached its climax. but neither side showed any indication of giving up.
Vaschel was breathing heavily as he stared at Akivili, his weapons ready to clash at any moment. so was Akivili.
Vaschel: you're wasting my time... *pant*
Akivili: it would be quicker if you told me your motives right away. what are you doing here?
swallowing hard, Vaschel unsummoned his sword. a sigh escaped his mouth as he straightened his clothes.
Vaschel: I'm here to find the Tree of Existence.
there was only silence, and it was loud. The Crew who heard Vaschel's words furrowed their brows.
Himeko: The Tree of Existence...
Welt: Does it really exist? I think it's a metaphor to describe the mystery of the cosmos.
as they were trying to understand, the video was suddenly cut off, followed by the sound of a broken radio before disappearing completely.
the same goes for Akivili and Vaschel. their projections are nowhere to be seen, just darkness and space.
Caelus: they're gone...
he looked around just to be sure. and yes, there was nothing out there but stars and vast darkness.
it was so sudden that they couldn't say anything.
Stelle: I'm going to take a nap... wake me up when we arrive.
one by one the crew left the parlor car, leaving Himeko, Welt and Caelus behind. Pom-Pom was busy fixing the barrier.
Himeko let out a long sigh before returning to her book. Caelus on the other hand approached Welt.
Welt: is somethint wrong, Caelus?
Caelus: do you have a moment... I have something to ask you.
──────────────────────────
back to Vaschel and Akivili. they just stared at each other, unsure of how to start a proper conversation.
Akivili: the Tree of Existence, you said...
it took a minute before Akivili let THEIR guard down. THEY stared at Vaschel, a little wary.
Akivili: for what purpose? hah, in the first place, how did you know about that?
Vaschel: that's...
he stammered, looking for an excuse. but he found none.
Akivili: who are you working for? a mere mortal can't even stand face to face with an Aeon.
THEY fell silent, staring at Vaschel.
Akivili: so either you are an Emanator... or just a lackey for a certain Aeon.
silence filled the void. they just stared at each other before Akivili's body glowed brightly. moments later an orb emitting a golden aura appeared in front of them. curiosity took vaschel quite fast as he squint his eyes, staring at the orb. he couldn't understand nor did he care what it was.
Akivili: the fight earlier already answered my question. you were deemed worthy by me-no... by the cosmos itself. take it.
the orb flew through space before Vaschel caught it. he tilted his head, he looked at Akivili and back at the orb.
