Viarush

Chapter 25 {Power of shina}

|intro|
[Shina' unbreakable and the strongest thing to exist. No material can handle its strength other than shina stone and shtone. Its power comes from emotion however shina' powerless without Physical strength. No matter how much emotion' strong shina can't be strong if body can't bear it! Likewise shina won't be strong if there's only strong physical strength but not strong emotion!

Shina/emotion' divided into two categories. Negative and positive. Every kind of colour except grey/black is in positive category. Those exceptions are negative. And in positive category neutral one's included. Both shina can work against Viarush but negative one has harmful effect. It's harmful for their own body, especially effects to brain.]

(Felis grabs and drags her out of the garden to somewhere else with no one around.)
Felis: (realises and let go of her hand)
Venus: Is something wrong?
Felis: (grits) Did- (looks away, anxious fingers rubbing, deep exhale) Did you just-  tried to- hold back your thoughts earlier there?
(Looks at her nervously)
Venus: (ponders a little) Yeah. Right! I did!
Felis: (gulps) Why- (halts. Looks down)
("Why?" Do I have the right to ask Why?
And isn't the answer obvious!?)
Venus: (concerned) But- (Did he think-?)
Felis: (deep in thoughts) (Well- who'd like the fact that someone will find out their all kinds of thoughts!)
Venus: It's not because you!
I often do that to avoid overthinking!
(But in this situation any other mind reader would get the wrong idea!)
Felis: (But! Despite knowing the fact I still acted selfishly!)
Venus: So I hope you don't misunderstand!    Felis?
Felis: (even though-)
Venus: (vague) F E L I S !
Felis: (get himself together, looks at her)
Venus: Did you hear what I was saying?
Felis: Yeah- I'll keep that in mind.
And it is true that I have trouble with loud noises but not for all cases!
It's only with negative commotion! Not something like harmless noises earlier! So you don't have to sweat about it!
Venus: No-
Felis: And sorry for earlier dragging you here all of a sudden!
Venus: (concerned) Nah- it's fine ~
Felis: Then I've got something to take care of so- (leaves)
Venus: (concerned)
Did he really-
heard what I said?

[D.S]
Cleary: (biting nails)
[fb memory; Cleary: (shina eyes appears then disappears. Shocked) Why-?
Venus: Don't need to be alert! It's an usual thing for me.
Strong shinas barely work on me let alone weak shina. Can you get a hunch of the reason behind it?
Cleary: Well... Cannot be sure it's quite an uncommon thing to happen.
(For a second thought I got early rush! Phew!)
Venus: I see~ (Nothing different from Veronica!~)
Cleary: But it's just an presumption-
It might be really rude to say- (sigh)
Venus: It's okay! Say it!
Cleary: What if it's fake shina?
(...)

Venus: Tell me in details.
Cleary: Since your highness always need excess shina so you might instinctively come up with shina weather you're really feeling that emotion or not. Without even realizing as you need it!
Venus: Do you have ever met anyone-
Cleary: As I said, this is totally based on my presumption! ...
Venus: You do have a point. But I doubt it's the case for me though.
(Because if that's the case then it wouldn't have been possible to have shina when I wasn't aware of its identity!)
Cleary: Absolutely! It's careless of me sharing such an absurd opinion!
Venus: It's okay, I asked for it. Feel free to share more opinions from now on.]
Cleary: (stops biting nails) Then what is it?
Veronica: (enters) So what business did you have with her highness?
Cleary: (Right! You wouldn't let it slide so easily! Seems like her highness has someone who doesn't leave her alone either!)

Venus: Both of their pace is going too slow! Rushing isn't good but taking too much time won't do us anything better!
As you know we don't have too much time either, so we have to come up with different ways to increase the pace.
Ozey: Your highness, I don't have any idea about them but I did try short of all kinds of different ways during this long period! She has some potential!
Luna: (sighs)
Ozey: She does improve sometimes!
Luna: (sighs again)
Ozey: But then she turns into a beginner again! (Sighs)
Venus: Then let's focus on what part makes them improve!
Luna: But- here  there's no improvement!
It seems like he completely lacks potential!
Venus: Hmm... Rather than working on strength have you tried working with their weaknesses?
Luna: Yes?
Venus: Most of the time strength builds the potential right? But sometimes weakness can lead to potential as well. Since you're too focused on strong points you couldn't see the potential so let's work to turn weaknesses into strength!
Luna: Y e s ...]
