Chapter 269 - The Red Empire, Azria (5)

Gaze stands at an empty spot, once getting past the sandstorm, they were met with the tip of some kind of building that was fully buried in the sand. The Was most likely a building of Izrail, the reason she knows this is because she touched the pointed tip and felt a familiar surge of power come to her.

"….." She kept thinking about what to do until nightfall. She tried the small blade, it was trying, because it turned into a large shovel and tried to dig it out. But the ground was hardened stiff and wouldn't budge.

"You Majesty." The Li'a, who accompanied the journey brought her a bowl of delicious soup.

"Thank you" Gaze said with a smile, she felt a headache coming as she thought about how she was going to solve this. Maybe anyone of those old text will do, she laid back as she finished the entire bowl. After a moment she felt alert, as she dropped the bowl. She looked to the face of the Li'a. "Who are you?" Gaze demanded she felt sluggish as she stood up.

She saw the Li'a, and the rest of her team unconscious. She watched as the women's face melted and changed into another with giggling. Black hair and golden snake eyes.

"It odd to see you this way, with an innocent expression, with innocent eyes. You even feel naïve. Yet, we knew your true self is far from it."

"we?" Gaze felt herself weaken and her vision leave

"But, enough about us, yes. I'm happy to see you regardless. I thought you were lost never to return. But now far from the truth, it took a long time to understand things for me. I was willing to join, Atlas and Hel, But, I met first. Don't worry this is nothing bad. I'm only returning what you have given me." The Girl smiled with a sad expression. "You recognize me this way, my journey has been hard. So, I understand if you won't know without see my original appearance."

"..." Gaze tried to focus; she couldn't see the women anymore.

"Don't worry, nothing bad is to come. I just want to help you. Although you may not understand my help"

This was the last thing Gaze heard before she fell unconscious.

When she woke up it was in an unfamiliar dark place and unfamiliar bed, she felt disoriented and still somewhat tired. She could barely breathe and couldn't see any light. But she felt a temple's conscious, Tell her to go somewhere.

She followed not really thinking clearly and it was dark, she was using the feeling from the temple's conciseness. But if there was light, she would have been shocked to see the walls bend and twist slightly.

Eventually she ended up in a room similar to the one in Hamon, she saw a glowing sand-brown gem glowing. She was still staggering about when she walked closer and saw the same thing as in Hamon, the pedestal opening Gaze barely sees the blade, but can somewhat tell that she needs to take it out.

She takes it out and fell unconscious again with relief, since she did what she needed to do.

The Place started to shake and trembled as it started to rise from the ground. Vivian and the others were still unconscious as they where lifted up and shielded by a sand-brown field. In a glorious moment as the sun rose at dawn, Izrail.

A glorious city, with a sandy-brown hue, and aura sounded out as life returned to the area. Water from Hamon, rushed in the spaces where rivers and lake. Grasses, trees, wild-life, towns and villages, the beauty had returned and now that is one more city awakened.

The Glorious Red Empire will soon be in its full glory. This time, Gaze woke up a week later. She was alone in an elegant room, the style was unique just like the one in Hamon. The moment she moved she felt the two blades move along with her. This time swirling around her, seemingly in joy.

After a moment, she recalled the flash of memories of this place. She also didn't fail to here the sound of enjoyment outside. Meaning she must have been asleep for some time, again. Vivian works quickly to fulfill all her wishes, and more homes have been acquired for the red bloods empire.

Gaze placed her pale and shivering hands on the vanity, and looked at herself only to see the two blades transform into earrings and had already placed themselves on her ears. She pushed her hair back and laughed as she walked out her room and went directly towards the kitchen. Surely they had a fruit for her to eat.

She wanted something sweet.
