"The Twin Star Duality of the Sage World!!"

Aryan swung his new pair of swords and checked if they were compatible with him or not. And as expected, they were totally compatible with him. He wasn't feeling any uneasiness or strangeness while using them.

That pair was something which was specially made for him. Its length, breadth, height, sharpness, everything was made keeping in mind the user's preferences.

After playing with them for a while Aryan remembered he was still sleeping in that giant's house and he still had to search for the clue that says something about proposing a giant.

He was getting ready to get out of his soul sea and wake up in the real world, when he felt a tremor in his soul sea. This was not his first time to feel something like that.

When he was in his old world he had felt it twice while his soul sea expanded for some reason.

'Eh…. What could be the reason now that made my soul sea expand now?'

He dispersed his Duality pair and snapped his finger.

Zwap!!

Instantly teleported to the middle of his soul sea. Before he took a look at the other changes in his soul sea, the first thing he observed was the change in his cultivation star.

His cultivation star wasn't changing shape as it used to be, and then it was in the shape of a small white ball. Aryan went near and floated around it to take a look at it from every angle. He knew it well that touching it will trigger something for sure, so he was taking extra caution before doing anything.

"Sigh, can't determine anything from looking at a distance," muttered Aryan in a low voice. He was pretty sure that something must have happened to his cultivation star that expanded his soul sea, and stopped his star from changing shape.

Creak~~~

Came a sound from the cultivation star. Aryan flew backward and maintained some distance between him and his star. He observed the star for a while and went near it to take a look at it again.

Like the first time he flew all around it and examined it from every side. Upon a clear inspection this time he found a small crack on his cultivation star.

Since the day he got his cultivation star he has never seen or heard about cracks on stars.

"Something must be wrong with it, I will ask gramps upon clearing the test," decided Aryan and snapped out his deep sleep.

Upon opening eyes this time he found himself in a dark room. He remembered pretty well the last time when he closed his eyes he was in the kitchen of those giants house. But this dark place….. Was somewhat unknown to him.

One more thing he realized after a while was his bed. Earlier he was sleeping on a lump of bread. But now he was sleeping on a big white towel.

'Did they shift me to somewhere else?! That must have been the case.' Aryan decided and used his divine sense to check out his surroundings.

Two living beings, he found in that room. One male and another female. And judging from the life signs both were giants. One thing he couldn't determine was their identity. He had doubts about whether they were the same maid and butler or some other members from that household.

Amidst of his thinking, the door creaked upon its hinges. A figure entered the room and began to chant something. Aryan startled by the figure hid below a layer of his towel and looked at the figures doing.

Clank! clank !clank!!!

Came a sound from the ceiling and the room glowed up in the light. The room became brighter and the face of the figure who entered the room became visible.

The person who entered the room and chanted the spell, most probably for lighting up the room was none other than the giant maid Alisa.

Aryan got out his hide and shouted loudly at her, "Big sis Alisa, big sis Alisa. I am here."

The maid turned around on hearing a squeaking voice from above the wardrobe and looked towards Aryan in confusion.

"Huh!! Lil human Sen, what are you doing here?"

Sen "…"

He was literally speechless there. All he remembered was that he slept in the kitchen and woke up in this room. Now how he reached here or who brought him here…. He had no idea about them. Sleepwalk might be a good option for such a situation but walking from the kitchen to this unknown room and that too in a giant's house…..not possible.

Aryan simply shrugged off his shoulders with a confused expression on his face.

Alisa understood he didn't know. Also, it was not even possible for him too. Since the kitchen was on the down floor and this room was the upper floor.

'So who could be the one who sifted this boy here?'

While both of them were pondering about it, a familiar voice came from behind asking "Oh lil Sen have already woke up from his sleep?"

Both of their eyes turned towards the door and found it was Sebes who asked the question.

Before any of them asked him something Sebes stated something that pretty much cleared their doubts about Aryan coming to that room.

"Ah, Alisa I was cleaning the kitchen some hours ago and found lil Sen was sitting on a piece of bread. Since it's very dangerous to leave him, there I shifted him here to our master's room."

"Oh~~!!" both of them exclaimed in unison.

"Yes, and after that I went out to check on the cursed flowers in the basement…." He stopped at that and looked towards the two persons sleeping on the bed.

Aryan was totally clueless about what they were talking, and why was Sebes looking at the bed with such miserable eyes.

Alisa facepalmed, took a heavy breath and sat in the nearby chair in the room. Suddenly, tears began to gush out of her eyes. Seeing Alisa, Sebes too became emotional and began to cry to his heart's content.

Both the maid and the butler were crying out loud for some reason, and Aryan was the only one who was getting dumbfound there. From what he observed, Sebes mentioned about some cursed flowers in the basement. Then he turned towards his masters and that was the point from where Alisa facepalmed, sat on the chair and began to cry.

Aryan was just unable to understand what was the reason for their tears. Sometimes ago when he performed a scan of his surroundings, he found both of them alive. "Then why are these people crying over them?' pondered Aryan.

After some time when both of them began to show signs of calming down Aryan mustered his courage and decided to ask out the question that had been bugging him for a while.

"Big sis Alisa, what's the reason for your tears some time ago? Why did the both of you begin to cry all of a sudden?"

"Sob, sob, Lil Sen it's our master and mistress," Alisa replied.

"Yes, I can see them too…. But what happened to them? I can sense well that they are alive."

"Sob, they are alive, but they have been in a coma for a month now," added Sebes.

"And come from?" Asked Aryan.

"Coma from a cursed flower."

"Oh~~!!"

"Yes," Sebes agreed and continued to tell him more about his masters. Just before a month ago when they were watering their plants and weeding out the unwanted grass both of them found a white-coloured flower in their garden.

The flower was so pretty and alluring that no human can resist its charm, be it a giant or a normal human.

Their master thought to take that flower back to home and plant it before their house. And to do so their master went near the flower and touched it.

Sebes stopped at that and continued to cry again. Seeing Sebes was in no state to narrate the incident Aryan turned towards Alisa in hope of learning more from them.

Alisa sobbed some more and took her glance as a hint to continue the narration.

After their master touched the flower, suddenly, he began to screech in pain and asked her wife to escape that place. But their mistress couldn't understand why he suddenly started to screech and why he asked her to escape, so in order to find out the answers, she took the hoe and tried to dig out the plant.

But upon touching the flower, even with a hoe, she too began to screech and fainted on the ground from pain. But till then their master was enduring the pain and trying his best to leave some message on the ground.

After some hour of struggle, their master too fainted from the pain and never woke up again.

When the servants noticed their masters hadn't returned yet, they went out to the garden and searched for him here and there.
