Chapter 7 ✺ The Realization
[Morgiana's POV]
"Gyokuen wants to... destroy a goddess..?" I whispered. I look towards Anya just to see a shock and fearful look on her face. "Yeap! So you up for the deal?" Naomi asked, a hopeful expression on all of everyone's face. I was speechless... Gyokuen intends to kill a goddess... It's so unbelievable... How does she intend to do that?! "Morgiana... You make the shots..." Anya said. I thought for a minute and silence lingered like the very air we breathe in. "I think you already know our answer..."
[Alibaba's POV]
Damn! There's loads of monsters here! "Huff.. Huff... This is exactly like a dungeon!" I said as we continued, a hoard of monsters behind us, too much for us to handle. "Zaug Mobarezo!" Hakuryuu said as his wooden arm released two dragons that went rampage on those monsters. There seems no end to them! They just keep on appearing endlessly, unending even after we destroyed them. "ARGH! Amon Saiqa!" I said when I summoned Amon's sword and started getting really pissed off, slashing nearly every monstrous being.
I continued slashing but when I kill one, another appears to replace it. Suddenly the rukh around us appeared and it gathered around the Magi. "Harhar Infigar," he said with wisdom in his eyes. The rukh around him turned to flames and it fell on the remaining monsters, burning them to ashes. Hakuryuu and I was shocked. "Mor-san should be here somewhere… Lets go find her!" Aladdin said.
[Morgiana's POV]
"Okay so we distract Karujiko while Morgiana and Anya heads for the one and only mirror in the room," Noielle said. "So who's gonna be the distraction?" Naomi asked. "I can be it. It'll be like a game of tag! It'll be so awesome and cool!" Adna said with excitement. "You do know that if she catches you it means torture right?" Leana asked. "I know but as long as she doesn't catch me, it doesn't matter right?" Adna confirmed, looking as confident as she was when we met her.
After we infiltrated the castle, Adna started looking for Karujiko. Finally when we saw her, she was actually looking out the window in a huge, dark, eerie room. Suddenly she turned around and started walking towards the door, a malicious look plastered on her face. We fled away with steps as quiet as we could. While running, Adna suddenly turned to the back. "Karujiko! Come get me if you can!" said the girl as she ran to the right of us as we continued on forward. We could feel that Karujiko bought the bait and went after Adna.
"The room should be around this floor…" Jennifer said. We continued on looking. "Found you… hihihihihi," a familiar voice said. Karujiko. We immediately backed away. Good thing Karujiko didn't attempt to capture any of us. "What happened to Adna?!" Leana asked. Karujiko smiled and stepped aside. Broken dolls was carrying Adna. There was patches of grey stuff that looks like….. stones? "Sorry….. guys….." Adna closed her eyes and a tear fell, as her whole body started turning to stone. "ADNA!" Adrianna shouted. I don't get it… you turn to stone if Karujiko catches you the second time?
"Leave us here…. Morgiana, Anya…. Go with Rosette and Leana… We'll catch up…" Jennifer said. "Yea! We have a score to settle with her!" Noielle and Naomi said together. All we could do was just nod. After mentally saying goodbye, we turned and ran towards the only room we have not explored. I look at the back for a little while. Surprisingly, Noielle and Naomi both had daggers on both arms and Jennifer was casting a spell. We continued to the door and even before we opened the door, I already knew. This is it.
