The Mysterious Land 24 Part 16: In Lizabath House -Last Part-

( I.... what exactly am I? )

*Inhale … Exhale … Inhale … Exhale *

" Wake up…. You are just having a bad dream "

Koja….

Woke up in the worst situation…

He could not believe what he saw in that dream…

Everything looked so real…

" That darkness … what was the meaning of it… "

" D-Daijobu? You were screaming so loud "

The time was…

Kind of early in the morning…

Even though koja spent a few moments in that dark s.p.a.ce…

He found himself really in the morning…

Does this really mean that the time is not fixed between the two places?

Between the mysterious place where Koja was ... and the real world...

..

It seems that the person who saved Koja from his nightmare was…. Lizabath !

This means that there is a way to awaken Koja while seeing that dream…

Which is to wake him up from the outside ... by moving his body strongly or something like that…

But….

Wait … this is so weird ! that moment ... Koja's defense was completely exposed...

So why did not lizabath exploit that and a.s.sa.s.sinate him?

Why did not she take revenge on him? ... Wasn't that the perfect moment to do that?

This girl is becoming strange little by little…

If she is just a hypocrite? ... if she is so why she did not take advantage of the situation for herself...

Why did not she kill Koja?

Koja didn't answer the girl with anything…

And what he is sure of it now is... that this girl is not trying to kill him...

She wants something else ... but what is it?

That deep contradiction ... made him make those cold features…

Those features that show how much he does not trust that girl…

Lizabath said:

" What D-Darkness do you mean? "

And koja didn't answer the girl for the second time…

So … he stood up from his bed and started walking…

" Thank you for letting me sleep here last night ! I must go now "

The girl made a sad face and said:

" W-Wait…. do you really have to go now? "

" Why not? do you need anything from me? "

..

..

After a silence…

Lizabath answered:

" Those cold looks ... are you sure that you are guiding them towards the right person? … I don't know why you don't trust me all this much ... all I want is to pay back for what you did for my sake ... so at least ... take the breakfast with me then you can leave "

*Heartbeats … Heartbeats *

That feeling … why it always caught koja when…

When he sees that girl in a pathetic situation…

As if he were doing something he must not do…

" Nani…. Kore?! Just.... who is this girl? I feel like…. I must do whatever she wants ! "

After a silence….

Koja rubbed his hair….

Then with a quiet tone, he said:

" Okey…. but show me the bathroom first "

Lizabath felt a great joy after koja accepted her request…

Yes, for the first time … that big smiled appeared in her angelic face…

" Arigato gozaimasu ! for accepting my request ! "

Then lizabath quickly showed koja the bathroom and asked him to go down to the kitchen when he finishes…

Koja entered the bathroom … then he started was.h.i.+ng his face…

And every time he does that … he stared at his face in the mirror for a while … then he continues was.h.i.+ng it…

" What is happening to my life recently? my life turned upside down after I met that girl … and till now … I don't know who is the right between us … me or her? the organization or the criminals' hunters? who reflects the justice between the two parties? the criminals' hunters are just mercenaries ... just outlaws? Just extremists? … until this moment I have not been sure of what was said about them … Yes, the real reason why I accepted to come to this city was ... the curiosity for sure ! I really wanted to know the truth of everything happening in this continent … and in addition … in that time … all the members in the Phoenix corps ... all those fools have greeted me in a wonderful way ... ignoring that I am a member of the special organization ! - With a smile - Whether they are just idiots or they are really good people ... I have to admit that this has affected me a lot ! "

After koja finished was.h.i.+ng his face … he went down as the girl asked him to do…

Then he entered the kitchen…

To find that … the girl was waiting for him…

" Ah ... you have finally come ... you can enter ... act at your convenience as if you were at your home "

..

Slowly…

Koja entered the kitchen…

Lizabath was following his moves with her eyes … with a lovely smile…

Until he sat down at his place…

And in instant…

Koja uncovered his dish to find it….

Full of fishes...…..!

" S-Salmon? at a time like this? Woooh sugooiii......… ! "

Then he stopped talking after he noticed that lizabath was looking at him with a smile as if she was feeling joy…

And that made koja make that arrogant face … starting to eat slowly…

" Itadakimasu "

..

..

After Koja had already eaten three fish ... and after lizabath looked at Koja the much she wanted…

Suddenly…

The girl stood up…

" Hmm? "

She started walking forward toward the first-floor stairs…

Then with a smile, she said:

" I have to go now … I have an important meeting now ... You can stay here as you.... "

Interrupted her words:

" I will go now...….. I just took the breakfast with you because you wanted that ! "

That cold tone again….

It seems as if lizabath was trying to resist it…

As if she continues to resist being hara.s.sed by Koja in every time he does that...

But this time….

She could not resist it anymore….

After she stopped walking suddenly…

Koja noticed that…

And…

With those strange features that appeared on his face…

He stared at lizabath…

With a confident tone lizabath said:

" Koja…. It was a really long time since I called you by this name "

And the moment lizabath said that ... Koja's eyes widened to their extremes ... as if he had not believed what he had just heard…

This girl…

Just called him by his name?

This name that koja called by a few people…

This girl...........

She is going to turn koja to a crazy person.......!!

Then she continued her words:

" When you go to get your revenge .... don't ever rush by yourself ... It will be a bit shocking ... but you have to handle it and I believe that you can .... did you hear me? the deadly character...... "

Before lizabath finished her words….

Strictly Koja quickly stood up ... holding his mini sword the dragon's neck...

Then with a very cold and dark tone, he said:

" This will be the last time I ask you ! who are you? and are you in agreement with someone to kill me? No, you're planning to do something else ... and whatever what it is ... it must be something bad "

Suddenly….

With a sad smile lizabath answered:

" Something bad? you must be a pro agent ... so you know very well that this is not what I am planning to do ... is not that what your senses tell you?  "

With panic:

" She is right … I still can't feel any bad intention from her … her reactions … her way of talking … nothing looks fake … and above this .... this deep feeling of comfortable toward her… kuso !!!! … remember …. remember …. remember …. remember …. try to remember her … do you really know this girl? "

While Koja was thinking unusually…

After all his senses were activated in one moment…

Trying to a.n.a.lysis things...…!

Lizabath … started going up through the stairs….

And before she reached the first floor…

She noticed that koja already left the house so fast…

As if….

He could not resist all that pressure in his depths…
