Inside the courtyard, Lory is playing with her gift out of boredom, she twirls her index finger above the teacup and the water moves like a small whirlpool inside the cup then slowly rise up to the air. Her finger stops moving abruptly, she open her palms and slowly clenched it and the tea Whirpool froze in the air. Lory retracts her hand, she let out a long heaved.

[My power still not enough…] she mutter.

​​

[It's good enough…] Girsha comfort her.

Lory helplessly smiles [Perhaps against someone who weak or reckless like Nan Yu Wei, but if it was someone strong like Mong Ki or Mong Yi, or the Demon parasite….I'm not so sure] Lory sigh as she props her chin while contemplating [we can't let Demon parasite roamed around in this world, what if that things attach to celestial beast or something even stronger, I can't imagine what kinda chaos it would created]

[You don't think the old fool is not the real target?] Girsha frown.

[I've been thinking…If I was the perpetrator, what reason would I have for releasing a dark entity among the people?] she cross her arms on the and she stares at Girsha [It can be just to control an old man, it also doesn't make sense if I want to control sacred mountain peak society, I mean...there's an easier way to do that. We should remember what Demon parasite does to us, to our world once….]

[Harland might fall in the claw of Nazareth but the world is crippled by the demon parasite, they drained our resource, our strength, and our will, the chaos is too grave we don't have time to take a step back to think clearly and when we have the chance the damaged is already done]

[I remember…and is not just affected the human world, but it affects everything, the world is dying] he agrees with Lory. that little parasite has created panic and chaos in the world.

[Yeah…] Lory looks down then she looks at Girsha deeply [We can't let that happened again] determination brimmed in her eyes.

Girsha nodded [You have a plan?]

[First, we need to extract the parasite from that old man, we need to store it to somewhere save] Lory said. She pokes the frozen tea lightly with her index finger and the pink color turn to powder then it falls on the table leaving a crystal clear ice. Since she is able to control the water she also able to purified water, a simple power but very useful during the time of war in her world.

[You think, you can do it?] Girsha becomes slightly worried.

[I don't know if I don't try] she grinned although she feel nervous. If she abused to much power the cursed would react and that's not good, however, they are in the dire situation so she has no choice but to take a risk.

She pokes the tip of the ice and it melts and plops inside the cup, Lory close her eyes and slowly she took a deep breath and opened her eyes, she put both her hand on the table and begin to chant, a purple circle appears on the table around the teacup, the circle was shine with purple light after she finishes her chant the circle disappeared and turn into a mist and absorbed by the water inside the cup, Lory let out a long exhaled then she start to chant again and another purple circle appear and the same thing happened again.

Lory repeated her chant two more times, and sweat begins to appear on her forehead, her hand begins to shakes. Her chest moves up and down incessantly. Girsha becomes anxious but he can't disturb her concentration right now.

[Just a little bit more…come on Girl] Gisha mutters. Don't know if he encouraged her or himself.

She raised her hands and the water twirl on the air, the water hit each other and slowly it begins to take shape, meantime Lory breathing becomes heavy, she grits her teeth to forces her focus while the shape becomes clearer then suddenly 'BOOM'

The gust of wind slams her to the screen partition fortunately she falls on the comfy bed.as if there were hurricane inside the room everything is wreck and fall to the floor. the room suddenly kicked open.

"LORY!"

The color drain from Zhao Li Xin's face, he barged into the room frantically "Lory, Lory where are you!" he searches her in panic.

"Here…." She answers weakly.

Zhao Li Xin approach lory in hasted, she was cover in blanket and pillow, her hair little bit messy but other than that she looks fine, Zhao Li Xin checks for any wounds on her face and arms he check the pulse on her wrist, his heart beating thousands of miles an hour only after he sure she is alright he calmed down, Zhao Li Xin gives Lory tight hugs.

"What happened, what are you doing, where is this explosion coming from?" he rains her with questions.

She remembers something and her eyes widened "Oh my god where is it?" she pushes Zhao Li Xin and jumps from the bed, her eyes search the floor in panic.

[I got it stupid girl!] Girsha clench a small vial with his feet.

[Let me see!] Lory check the vial for any defect on the object, she make sure the spell is absorbed by the vial. Only after she sees the blue runner appear all over the vial surfaces she sighs in relief, her hard work is not for nothing.

Lory grips the vial closely to her chest "Thank god" she feel at ease but her legs become jelly she almost falls on the floor but luckily Zhao Li Xin catches her.

"What's wrong, are you hurt?" he asks anxiously.

"No, my leg…I just feel tired" Lory said with a sheepish smile.

He carries Lory to the bed, he covers her with a blanket. When she touches the bed the fatigue immediately rushes over her and her eyelids become heavy, a second later she falls asleep with vial clenched by her hand.

Zhao Li Xin pinch the bridge between his eyebrows, he engulfs with inexplicable feeling, she feel scared, sad, helpless and angry, he doesn't know which one he felt first.

"Get used to it" Girsha abruptly said "My girl doesn't have many flaws as a partner or human being, other than taking her matter with her own hands, she likes a time bomb you don't know when she will blow up and nothing you can't do about it"

"Not even you…"Zhao Li Xin helplessly smiles.

Girsha roll his green eyes "Especially me, you thought I can stop her when she decide to fight against Behemoth when she only eleven, I can't stop her when she wants to explore the dungeon all alone, I can't stop her when she decide to leave cestine palace to search the unknown and I can't stop her when she….." he looks down as desolation seep to his thought until he begins to speak again "You can't stop her, you can't only protect her and pray nothing bad happened to her"

"You want me to give up huh" Zhao Li Xin stifles, he tugs the strain of hair fro her from her face.

"Either you walk with her or you leave her" Girsha shrug.

"Leaving her is not an option" he rose from the bedside then he fixes the falling table and chairs. Then he got out and found a broom to swipe the broken cups and cheap vase. If only Hei Shen members are here their jaw will drop to the floor when they see their Lord diligently sweep the floor. Zhao Li Xin's reason is simple, he worries the broken glass will hurt Lory so why not clean everything while his Princess sleeping. 

"What is that thing?" Zhao Li Xin point at the vial on lory's hand after he put away the broom outside his room.

Girsha flew to lory hand with his feet he took the vial from lory hand and put it on the table for Zhao Li Xin look closer.

"It's a special vial, try to hit it on the floor" Girsha grinned.

Zhao Li Xin frown "Would it be broken" the vial made by clear glass, it looks fragile and easy to crush.

"Trust me, I will take responsibility!" he reassured him.

Zhao Li Xin sigh, as long his Princess didn't get mad at him, he also curious though. He raises his hand above his head then he hit the vial to the floor, amazingly the vial is not broken, Zhao Li Din flabbergasted. When he took the vial a purple rune appear all over the clear vial surfaces ten a second later the rune disappear, the vial didn't even have a scratch after the violent hit.

"What is this?" Zhao Li Xin was awed.

"The special container made by multiple incantations, it used to trap the Demon parasite," Girsha said.

"Demon parasite?" Zhao Li Xin stunned.
