Chapter 34 - 34. Quest

Sleeping.....

He is falling,

" THUD!! "

Henry fell on a massive mirror and it breaks. Henry entered the mirror world.....

Some undescribable entity's shadow is staring at him with rage and full of fear.....

Henry's eyes opened as he founded himself falling down from midspace. He was calm, not fearing of anything, he was bored. A rock down there was waiting to catch him.

While falling, he felt like he just his parents for second. His eyes were slowly getting wet.

Many strings around him moving a nanometres every second. Sharp as light and short like a thread, surprisingly none of them was touching him. His gaze fell on the rubbish sky. He noticed some white dragon flying above. It was visible to his eye because he was up in heights.

" THUD!! THUD!! "

Henry fell on the blue, groaning. He woke up and saw he was wearing clothes. He was in good mood Death kept his orders.

" CHAK!CHUP!CHIP!CHEK! "

Henry looked behind. A living walking flame came near to him. Henry immediately thought about Death.

Henry snapped his fingers.

" So, someone died in flames moment ago? Doesn't it feel bad observing all those deaths? "

Death sighed and glared at a soul rushing.

" I never weep. But if I did, it could be when you whisper goodbye to the ones I take. When they look at me with eyes full of pain, I wish I could say, ' I am sorry. ' But I am not made for mercy. "

Henry told Death, " Take my number, I have regrets ahead of you. "

Death chuckled and said, " Don't worry, I've got all the time in the world. "

Henry smirked and said, " I have seen scarier things in mirror at 3am. Try harder. Big thing is..... Why did you called me? "

" I was being bored. So, called you for a gossip. "

" Okay, send me back now. I have some work to do in the home. "

Suddenly some bubbles appeared around him, he was unable to see.

He woke up, found himself on bed with his pets. It's being 7am. He woke up in early 5am and did some chores. He had time so did a nap. Outside is cold and very windy.

The storm will approach any time. He needs to go and find the herbs before that.

Henry wore his Vanguard dress and goes out as the hour arrow reached 9.

Battling with a pile of documents, he was tired. Jeff and Mary are helping him in work. Jeff was behaving awkward sometimes. Mary shoved him lightly and told him to focus on work by sign. Henry was looking at his palm.

His palm looking blurry, a green layer flowing around his hand. Henry casually looked up and saw a gore under Jeff's throat. Slowly intending to rush out from his eye.

Mr Andrew Smith is busy talking with some Vanguards. Nelson will go out for a mission with Mary at the hideout in forest soon.

Henry took some time making everyone busy in conversation between, he was gone.

Henry was heading towards the green hills. It wasn't far from there, but not near too.

He reached there coughing and weakling.

If he does some outdoor exercises his capabilities can ameliorate, precisely will.

He is physically weaker now than other Miracle Invokers. He is not capable of handle those big miracles. So on, he needs to climb higher in states as far he can with his capabilities. The place was quite and calm. Some deers in distance saw him and ran back into the deep.

Vain warned him, this place might turn into a pernicious ring, he needs to be clever there.

As he is now, he is keeping his eyes everywhere while wiping " Ruta Graveolens"

which is known as the " Herb of Grace " in some regions. It is used for Dream Clarity and Curse-Breaking rituals.

There are many Sagacious who thinks they know many things about mystical knowledge and astronomy. But what they know and seek is not even a grain of sand comparing to a galaxy.

My knowledge...? I think it could be a planet level or just a continent I think...

Henry needs to take seven with him. The roots of these are very strong to wipe out. Henry somehow managed to bring two out.

...

Mary and Nelson walking in the street in the open air. Nelson was kinda sad and behaving awkward. Mary was noting some details about the case in a notebook.

They just came back saving a education park earlier. It was fitted a time bomb which was hidden. Luckily, a kid found it in public toilet when he went to peep. Mary defused the bomb while Nelson broke everyone's bones.....

They are going back gossiping about how they ended up here. Nelson was probably throwing a false story.....

He didn't mean to hurt anyone.

If you want to protect your beloved ones,

you need to see others bleeding. As we can see, without violence, freedom can't be gained....

Nelson took his hat off and smirks at Mary.

" Should we have a dinner today? "

.....

Henry was going forward, searching for a worthy Ruta. He traveled the hill and found a hut under the clouds! He broke the rule of nobility and came in without knocking.

The brightness from the other part of the door, rushed upon him, turning his flesh white, draining his soul, turning him into..... a blind.....

However, Henry rubbed his eyes putting basket in a side. The brightness slowly lessens. A man was sitting in the room. In the hut, it was warm and comfortable.

Henry stood up and apologised to that person.

That person looked up and sighed.

" Sorry, are you a vanguard? How can help you? "

Henry took his basket and lowered his head.

" Sorry, I was here for an objective. I mistakenly came here. "

A mysterious sound came out from Henry's stomach and crashed into the person's ear.

The person chuckled notching his nose.

" Come in, I've cooked some lentils and baked breads. "

Henry closed the door gently putting his hat and basket on a rack. Going forward he witnessed a pretty smell.

Henry asked the man his name smiling.

That person smiled giving mysterious vibes.

" You don't know me but your story remembers me. I speak rarely..... but when I do, worlds shift. Even the silence retreats when I speak. You can address me as Martin, Martin Lawden. "
