The book stopped at the first seven stars so Hayden contained information that didn't even exist yet in this universe. It was no wonder that Liri didn't know about spark crits due to the fact it didn't even exist yet. Something in Hayden's mind didn't click, if it didn't exist yet why is there a book about Gildorf, Nyami and Mifune. Nyami also didn't make sense in his mind.
'If it was Brave Frontier's fault that he got sent to this world, wouldn't Nyami not exist? Since Gumi is the one responsible for global and Alim is the one that made the game. Nyami is a global exclusive. '
Seeing Hayden visibly distressed she tried to keep his mind off whatever made him sad.
"I still can't get my head around sparking. Could you help me?"
"Oh, okay." Hayden replied after a pause.
-In the Forest.-
Sarah thought about the difficulty of this matchup. Light and dark both are weak and strong against each other so typing won't help out that much here. Feeva dashed forward swinging her sword in the process. Sarah jumped back to dodge the attack but as she landed the big crystal attacked from behind Feeva. A white glow appeared from Sarah's hand as she repelled the attack from the crystal. Feeva prepared to attack again but this time she swung her sword in the general direction of where Sarah was standing. As she finished dark crystal like rocks appeared from the ground converging onto Sarah. Sarah quickly dropped to her knees and placed her hands onto the floor which broke the crystals that emerged. As she looked up she was hit by the original crystal that stood by Feeva. Sarah was knocked back but she quickly got onto her feet and started chanting. Feeva stood still and watched as Sarah started to chant.
"White Light!" Sarah yelled as she put her hands out towards Feeva. A bright light gathered in her hands and projected forwards. The light emitted could clearly be seen from a great distance away despite there being trees. After the light subsided a slight rainbow effect could be seen in the nearby surrounds. The path of light carved a path in the ground clearly showing the impact of the move. Feeva was not present in the surroundings as the light faded. Sarah was breathing heavily due to the power needed to create that move. She could still feel that Feeva was somewhere nearby but she couldn't figure out where. A voice came from behind Sarah.
"Obsidian Strike." Sarah lost consciousness.
-In the house-
Hayden had taught Liri what he knew about the standard spark mechanics and she seemed to take that in pretty quickly. As he finished a bright light came from outside illuminating the outside past the point where you could look directly at the light. It was brief but to Hayden it was quite the experience. The actual light reminded him about the battle effects. Since it was way quicker to play the game without the background light and the fact that it would all eventually join to just make the screen white at one point he always kept it off since 7 stars. He looked at Liri to check if she was alright and she seemed fine and completely unfazed by the random light.
"You did see that right?" He said while being quite worried.
"Yes, every now and then a bright light would appear as Sarah told me. It's the light of his Holiness."
"Really?"
Hayden still couldn't completely wrap his head around Karna Masta being this being that was nice and saved humanity. In the game he was just a hard boss in a game mode that was not that known for its difficulty. It also said about how evil Karna Masta is hence Feeva's title.
"Do you know where Sarah is?"
"She went on an errand again." Liri said with a bigger smile than usual.
"Oh, you seem in an even happier mood."
"That's because I just earned my 5th gem. Now I can do that again."
"What? Summon."
Gems were not that common in the game past all the trials and things. They were the currency that is used to summon a unit for you to use. Ever since Challenge arena had shut down it was back to doing hard GGCs, Trials, Questing and Frontier Hunter. Due to this he was really curious as to how she could just randomly gain gems to do divine summon.
"So you're going to divine summon again?"
"Divine summon? You mean rare summon right? You know, you're quite weird, what are you?"
-A cave somewhere-
Sarah managed to gain consciousness but her back hurt after she tried to sit up. She placed her had on her back to see where she had hurt herself. She felt hot due to the atmosphere. She surveyed her surroundings and figured out where she is. A figure came from the entrance.
"Welcome to the cave of flames."
"Feeva, why did you bring me here?"
"Because it would be easier to deal with you here."
The sensation of her aching back continued to linger.
"It's quite sad that a disciple of his Holiness would lose so quickly like this. Maybe I'll stop by your little summoner, maybe she will be glad to have proper guidance."
A light came from Sarah as she slowly stood up again. The white light outlined her like an aura.
"Why are you doing this Feeva?"
"Because I want to. His Holiness will believe what I say after all. A lowly disciple like you cannot possibly be a match for his greatest disciple."
"I'm sorry, but I can't afford to lose now." Sarah said with a look of determination.
"That's really funny, you know how many 'Gods' have said that to me after all these years. What exactly does a disciple have, on a God." Feeva emphasized the word gods.
"Come and find out." The bright light emanated from Sarah's hands and headed in Feeva's direction.
The crystal-like object came in front of Feeva to absorb the blast but the light switched directions before colliding and smashed into the walls of the cave. Feeva looked at the ceiling as it started to fracture and small rocks started to fall to show the collapse of the roof. As she was looking Sarah ran up and jumped onto the crystal and jumped behind Feeva. Feeva drew her sword and swung in her direction. Crystals came from the ground and the walls to crush Sarah where she stood.
"White Light!" The crystal broke and another flash of light appeared. The light wasn't as bright but it was still blinding to look at. Feeva raised her hand to block the light and guarded using the crystal. The light faded and Feeva dashed through the crystal and swung, at nothing. Sarah wasn't there and all that was left was a red bottle with markings on it and the lid removed.
"Fujin potion. Quite clever to have crafted that beforehand."
She sheathed her sword and walked out of the cave as larger rocks started to fall from the fractured ceiling.
"I have a feeling, we will meet again, quite soon." She slowly walks into the forest before entering a portal to a different place.
