The Atlantean Compensator 156 The Aftermath.

'They're...gone again."

Herald, descends on the stairs slowly, holding Muruem in his arms...and looked really emotionless!

He puts her so carefully on the bed, and looks at her thoughtfully...

He had one question on his mind.

'...What am I to you anymore?

I do not know...'

Herald gets out of the room, towards the kitchen...Robotically getting out food and preparing the breakfast. Although his face showed nothing to read behind, he couldn't help but think again of what just happened.

'Dismissed...

The so called "Chosen one" is dismissed from his duties, while I'm sure the 6 others are not.

Elara said she has a lot to tell me, i'm sure it's about that as well.

I knew it back when we were in the island, that all of us will have a major change in life...But now with me being dismissed, maybe I can have my life back to me.

Finally, I can focus on her, my career, and....AND.....'

Abruptly, Herald slams his fist hard on the table!!! His facial expressions changed, he's angry!!

'WHO AM I KIDDING!!??

It isn't like i forgot about everything that went on, do they really think it's this easy to just dismiss me from everything!!!

But....Isn't that what you wanted Herald Eniya.s.s?

A period of peace,

No...

This isn't what i wanted, but...WHAT I NEEDED!!

However...No one can take away my freedom.

NO ONE HAS THAT RIGHT BUT WHO CREATED ME!!!

I do not care what the cause may be, as long as I'll do what i think is best. As long as we're on the same side, you should have no problem with it, Head master!'

During the time Herald was having this intense monologue with himself, the breakfast was made.

It wasn't for him though, he made it for Muruem in the first place! He goes and wakes her up.

"Muruem!

Wake up honey you'll be late for work..."

Muruem, "Eeeemmm...Good morning honey!

You're awake already!?"

Herald. "Yes, I made you breakfast."

Muruem. "Awwnnnn, you shouldn't have troubled yourself! Especially that you just got out of the hospital!"

Herald. "Nah it's alright, I've troubled you way more than this."

As Muruem got up the bed, wore her sandals and went to wash her face off, she stopped midway to kiss Herald.

But, she felt something weird...She looked at his eyes.

"...I remember now!". Said all of a sudden!!

Herald's heart immediatly b.u.mped as he heard that, but he hid it behind his normal sweet face.

"Hmm!

Remember what?"

"..It was a weird dream!

Like I was already awake before and walked outside...and..."

She put her hand on her head as she tried to recall.

Herald. "And...?"

Muruem. "And...Ugh whatever!! I can't remember clearly.

It's just a silly dream i guess..."

Herald. "Okey honey."

Muruem leaves the room, as Herald sat on the bed and crossed his fingers...

He didn't see it, but the look on Muruem's face as she left, definitely had something behind it!!

....

*Inside a very large and mysterious hall room, with 13 seats situated well above the ground.*

Something of great significance was happening.

"Yes master!

I have succesfully put the seal on him!"

"Alright Guiado, stay aware at all times and make sure to keep us informed about any updates."

"Will do."

"You can leave!"

Guiado gave his report to all 13 Atlantean Masters!!

After he left, some had comments about it.

"I don't know what's all about this kid that we have to hear about him every now and then!

He does not pick my interest anymore, I was hyped for nothing sadly..."

Said one of them as he rested his cheek so carelessly on his palm.

"Although I don't agree many times with you, but I also think he's not worth it anymore.

He's not the one we're waiting for!

The real chosen one, slipped right through our hands because of the stupidest reason!!"

Alkeyder, stood up from his chair, he looked to be angered by what was just said.

"I won't allow such blasphemy, I didn't know men such as you have not accepted yet G.o.d's fate!!"

"SILENCE!". The Head master had to cut it before it escqualates!

He continues.

"You've always been too impatient G.o.dfrey! And so are you Alexander...

We've all lived thousands of years and now we can't wait some other months to see how he'll develop?"

Alexander, the one with the first comment, replied again.

"It isn't that I am being too impatient, but as G.o.dfrey mentioned, compared to that man...He's surprisingly nothing like him."

Alexander fixes his posture and changes his tone.

"You know that well yourself.

That day when we all couldn't beat him!!"

Eremiah, the head master could not reply but with a thoughtful Hmmmmm...

Alkeyder. "Alexander, I do realize you're the strongest of us all!

And for you to find someone that reminded you of your humanity, It must have been a great joy.

Maybe that's why you're disappointed by Herald.

But I've trained him for 3 months, he has something that even the latter didn't have.

I still cannot understand it well yet, the seal Guiado put on him will allow me to fully comprehend it.

What I can say for now is, he has great potential to be both, A chosen one, or a Failed one!

We'll make sure that he becomes the first option."

Alexander's gaze clearly showed that he felt nostalgic...He has some history with this original Chosen one!!

But again, how come there is an original Chosen one??!!

Suddenly, G.o.dfrey slams the wood on everyone!!

"SO WE ARE GAMBLING HERE!!

AFTER ALL THIS TIME THAT WE HAVE BEEN PREPARING TO GET OUR PRIDE BACK!!!!

WE ARE PUTTING OUR EFFORTS INTO THE HANDS OF A KID THAT WAS ONLY BORN YESTERDAY, WHO HAS PROOVED NOTHING BUT BARELY KILLING A MARID AND COULD EASILY BEEN DEAD BY NOW IN THE HANDS AN ARCHDEMON!!!!

THAT IS OUR HOPE??!!

I REFUSE TO CONTINUE ON THIS MOCKERY!!!"

He was furious, it seems that the scar the war 500years ago left on him especially, is still bleeding.

And every other master knew that was the reason, they know that he's the most prideful of them, but Heof Twohorns, still wearing his cla.s.sic helmet! Had the guts to confront him.

"So what are you suggesting, Sir G.o.dfrey?

The prophecy says that a savior from the later times will be the one and only reason our side will prevail! Are you by any chance debunking it?

Or is it that you want us to search for another Chosen one?

Aren't you afraid of losing time, that will only make us wait even more...With no guarantee of having another one appear.

The enemy is already at his last stages, he won't wait for us.

You're not the only one who's eager to avenge our pride, and those we lost with time..."

G.o.dfrey could only look and listen, he hated it! But he knew that every word said is true...So he sat back again on his chair...Not saying a word back.

The head master takes the final parole.

"Very well said, king!

We have to be more patient, that does not mean we'll sit with our hands crossed.

We're already much more advanced and strong than we ever were. And we'll continue to ruin all of their plans bit by bit. Forget about the kid for now and leave him to those who are concerned with his case.

Now, let's get to the main reason why we're having this meeting. Right away, a transparent screen appeared in front of all 13seats!

"Here are the commands for each division!"
