Chapter 36 - Liora's Dream

Liora is laying in the void, watching the nothingness above her.

She hears a small sound, as if something cracked, like a rock hitting the hard ground, she moves her head to the right side to look where the sound came from.

She sees a skull, completely damaged, she gets up and walks toward it to pick it up and look at it closely.

She raises it to her eye level to look at the dead eye of the skull, she feels that the skull is heavy but not enough that she can't hold it.

Few minutes passed and the skull turned into ashes flying away all of a sudden.

She closes her hands trying to grip one of those ashes but it flies away with the wind.

The place around Liora slowly changes into a big luxurious house.

It's Liora's house in the past before everything happened.

Liora shivers after realizing it's her house, she's not scared though, she's just looking at the house with a dead stare. Her cat's ears twitch as she starts moving toward the gate to enter the house.

Once she passes the gate she finds her younger self playing in the field.

No cat ears, no tail or sharp cat eyes. Just a normal little girl with water power inside the field playing with her Russian blue cat.

Weird how a small cat like that makes a little girl all happy and energetic.

After a few minutes, while she was still watching her younger self play with the cat, her parents came out of the house to talk to their daughter for a bit. And Liora watches how good her mother is to her but that doesn't change what happened in the past...

After seeing that, Liora's expression changes from calm and normal to disappointed and angry.

The whole house changes into a school filled with children everywhere.

Because she has a unique power unlike the rest who're probably normal or just low magic users. She had to hide her own power so she could appear as a normal girl who has no magic.

Even though there are many people with very low magic, having absolutely no magic means you're weak and have no future.

Mostly, people with no magic get bullied and might get killed just because they're weaker. Liora had to survive the bullying that happened to her every single day knowing well that one move of hers can end the entire school but she'd get pressured by the whole world if she revealed her identity.

The scene shifts to a place behind the school, Liora gets cornered by some kids with higher magic.

They start insulting her and making fun of her but no one tried to touch her yet, even though she has absolutely no magic she's still one of the most feared people in the school. Everytime someone tries to bully her, that person usually never appears again for some reason. Those kids know of the rumors of those missing kids but they don't sense any danger from her. They think that she has no magic so she can't possibly beat them.

One of the bullies was a girl, the rest of the boys were aware and never dared to touch her but the girl had the guts to do it and she finally did the first move.

She holds her wrists hard and was about to use a high level spell on the little girl but right after the girl opened her mouth, Liora gave her a punch right on the face throwing the girl away from her. The girl's nose starts bleeding like a river running in a straight line. Liora immediately charges into the other kids and gives another few punches in different places like the first one got hit right on his stomach and the second boy got hit in the... Well somewhere forbidden...

After Liora finished the small fight, she gobbles them with her water leaving no evidence so no one ever knows what happened.

The scene changes again to the laboratory. Liora was the first person to enter it.

The mad scientist greets her with wide arms welcoming her to her new home, Liora looks at him knowing well this will never go well but she acts along anyways.

The scientist leads her to her room and she sits on one of the beds of the room, only two beds each in a corner of the room.

The scenes shifts again to the experiment room where the kids unlocked their true power, and the same room where she got her blessings from the scientist, she finds her younger self again sitting on the chair and the scientist standing next to her about to give her the blessing, the same situation where the lab exploded right after she got her unique side power.

A power... That should not exist in their world.

After the explosion happens Liora happens to fall in the laboratory immediately right after the awakening, her power already went to ice, jumping the water phase that made her enough to fight in the temple, she finds herself fighting a few ice like creatures trying to kill her without a reason, like animals with very low iq.

One of the creatures holds the younger version of Liora, cutting her arm away and starts eating it like someone who hasn't eaten for days. After she managed to slip and run away far enough so they couldn't reach her in time, she finds a... Cat?

A big cat with alot of fur was sitting right in front of her as if she was waiting for Liora.

And without even asking questions the cat moves towards her, slightly touching Liora, fusing them both in one body.

Liora got her normal body with cat girl details except it's actually real.

And the scene finally finishes with her meeting Zeka in hell.

The place changes back to the void where everything started. Liora looks infront of her finding the same skull she held at the beginning, she picks it up and looks at it again deadly in the eyes.

She says.

. . . . .

For some reason we can't hear her saying the words but after she's done with whatever she said, the skull turns into a glowing shiny skull and starts floating high above the sky.

As Liora finally lets the skull go she looks around as the whole void changes into a field filled up with Spider Lily, Liora moves forward and every time she passes by a flower it turns into a beautiful White Lily as if Liora took away the nightmare that was hiding inside those Spider Lilies...
