Journey of the Last Demon and the Female Lieutenant

Chapter 60

(in Anna's mind unknown house)

Anna (sitting up after opening her eyes while lying on a sofa): Is this another dream?

Unknown person (from a distance): You're finally here Anna.

Anna (looking at the person on the sofa): Who are you?

Shizuka (unknown voice (while standing)): My name is Shizuka. I'm your past self.

Shizuka has silver white mid-thigh length hair but is in a high ponytail using a baby blue ribbon, pointy ears and baby blue eyes. She's wearing a baby blue dress that reaches to her ankles having a one-sleeve kimono on her left arm, a white rope in the middle that has a bow with a long ribbon at the back, white inside and split in the middle of the skirt. White shorts, white short gloves on the left hand having the right arm have long gloves that don't cover fingers and baby blue plimsols.

Anna (after sighing): Why do spirits always like to bother me?

Shizuka: Those other two spirits chose you but my visit is different.

Anna (while standing): How is your visit different?

Shizuka: Do you know why you were able to master dual-wielding so fast?

Anna: Because I had a good teacher?

Shizuka: It's because I also use dual-wielding.

Anna: How could you wield a weapon when Keith said you were bedridden?

Shizuka: That was before my health got worse. Just like you at a young age you are perfectly fine but once you learn how to fight your body gets worse unable to keep up.

Anna: So my illness also came from you?

Shizuka: Yes.

Anna: Shizuka you didn't bring me here to chat about our connection correct?

Shizuka (shocked Anna after her eyes change into spiritual eyes): That's right.

Anna: Your eyes.

Shizuka: These are called future sights.

Anna: You're able to see into the future?

Shizuka: Correct. I'm surprised you know that.

Anna: I saw it in a book when I was young but it said only spirits have that. So how are you able to use it?

Shizuka: I was born without magic but was able to see spiritual things. My parents died before I knew about our family bloodline but Keith and Sosuke took care of me becoming like an older brother.

Anna (while Shizuka walks towards her): I know how that feels.

Shizuka (touch Anna's shoulder): I won't be able to see you again once you wake up but the main reason for our meeting is to unlock your future sight. That will help you in this fight.

Anna: How do you know about the war?

Shizuka: Before I died by a strong shadow creature I saw my fate. However, I can't say more about that.

Anna: You don't want to change my fate?

Shizuka: You already have changed your fate.

Anna: How?

Shizuka (cover Anna's eyes): Sorry but I can't reveal that either. (near Anna's ears) It's time for you to return.

(next day morning Anna's room)

Sabrina (in Anna's mind after seeing her sit up): Good morning Anna. (watch Anna touch her head) What's wrong?

Anna (having baby blue eyes with a spiritual effect after opening them): My head hurts a bit.

Sabrina (in her mind after noticing): Her eyes are different.

Keith (outside the door knocking): Anna you awake?

Anna (moves her hand once her eyes return to normal): You can come in.

Keith (after entering wearing his soldier outfit): Everything alright?

Anna (while getting out of bed): Yeah. I just woke up with a light headache.

Keith: You should sleep a bit longer.

Anna (walking to the bathroom): I'll be fine but I have to head out quick.

Keith: Are you late for something?

Anna (in Keith's mind after entering the bathroom): I'm heading to the medical building.

Keith: Why?

Anna: The reason why I took so long to get to the canteen after getting to the restroom to wash my face was because a person from the medic team asked me to come by today to treat the soldiers who are barely in stable condition.

Keith: Knowing you. You agree to help.

Anna: Thanks to my wind magic I had to learn how to be a medic even though they know I was planning to be a soldier to fight in the war.

Keith: At least your healing skills have come in handy a lot.

Anna (walking out of the bathroom wearing her soldier outfit): True and it even saved my life. I'm actually one of the three best healers so far in the military in this country.

Keith: Who's the other two?

Anna: David and the general because David uses wind magic and the general uses light magic.

Keith: Interesting.

Anna (walking to the door): I have to go. If you need me ask one of the soldiers.

Sabrina (in Keith's mind while Anna closes the door): That's the fastest I've seen Anna leave.

Keith: Anna takes her medical job seriously. By the way what happened before I entered?

Sabrina: Nothing much but I think Anna has a new ability that doesn't belong to me.

Keith: What do you mean?

Sabrina: Her eyes were baby blue having a spiritual effect. (notice Keith's face expression) Keith?

Keith: I might know what it could be but I'm not too sure.

Sabrina: Sadly I'll be heading to the shadow realm to help Yurei out.

Keith (started walking): I wish you luck on what you find.

(hallway)

Keith (in his mind while walking after closing the door): Yurei you there?

Yurei (in Keith's mind): You call Lord Keith.

Keith: Sorry but can you watch Anna for a bit?

Yurei: Of course.

Keith (looks at the sky after stopping): If her eyes had a spiritual effect then did Shizuka visit Anna last night?
