Chapter 64 - Aftermath

We can see a carriage going on the road.

A black wood have many good design made with silver and edges civer with gold, this carriage is pull by two black horses with red eyes and horns.

The carriage is going through a forest between the City and Dark Flame territory but there are no monsters and Bandits who will attacks.

The monsters get scared by the two Divine Gifted horses that Dark Flame Family have for generations and for Bandits, they instantly kill or push by them, in other words, it is one of the safest carriage in continent if not the safest with magic for a comfortable journey.

This is not a normal carriage and the person inside is also not normal, she is Nebula Dark Flame, the current attention of the whole Country, girl who is topic of talking everywhere.

She is currently going towards her home in carriage because she need time to digest the things.

The current university is shut down after the incident for some days, maybe for 15 days or a month, she is after the demon of death face a big commotion and it all result to all students to go back.

"They need to fix the city, university Barriers and investigate the incident" Nebula said.

She seeing the view outside, shifting of plain, passing trees and birds flying but she thinking about the past things,

The past,

After the defeat of the Demon God Raphel everyone is kneeling before Nebula and Celestial, their posture not showing forced kneeling or gratefulness, their kneeling posture show gratefulness and loyalty.

"All Hail The Guardian"

Nebula seeing this baffled, can't understand why they kneel.

"What is happening?, why are you kneeling?" She ask the question, she needed answer.

"Nebula Kneel before the Guardian and greet him" Lord Brandson said, his voice is loud like he want to force her, she never listen this type of voice of her uncle.

"No need, I am not the Guardian anymore, i am just a spirit belong to Nebula Dark Flame" Celestial said getting attention of everyone as they see towards her.

"Please stand up, i am not that now" He said.

Everyone was reluctant but in the end they stand.

Nebula who doesn't understand it thinking

'What Guardian?'

'Dead, how can he die?'

'Why they behave like this?, even uncle'

'Aren't we the Guardians'

These are her thoughts, she need answers.

Everyone stand and in silence.

Celestial see towards her "I understand, your questions, things you don't understand"

He see towards all like asking for her to tell the answer and get their approval.

"Well, i can't tell you everything now but only that there are Good and Bad people, the precious things always hide from who can take them, I am or was the precious thing, you and others are Guardian of kingdom but i was the Guardian of world" he said.

"Was, what does that mean?" Nebula ask.

"I was once human like you and die but i want to protect the world that my Ancestors guard for millions of years so came back to find someone" He reply.

"Millions?" Nebula can't believe.

"Yes, Millions, we live in different places under different names, guide the people, see all rise and fall, we protect the world and I want to continue this cycle and choose another one to gave this duty to him or her" Celestial said.

Nebula can't trust the words but the reaction from his uncle and others tell her that it is all truth.

"So you are the one protecting this world while we are just faces to distract others" Nebula ask, her tone is loud, like she feel offended.

"No my dear Niece, we are supporters and followers that maintain peace so the guardian don't get much problems while doing his duty" Lord Brandson said.

"B." She want to ask but Celestial's voice stop her.

"The barrier is breaking and others are waiting" he said.

Everyone realize that things get normal, everyone waiting outside the barrier to see what have happened including all people that came in festival.

They also realized the royal army, Nobels Family members, Magic Tower mages, Alchemy, Blacksmith, Runes Smith groups with others came for answers.

"It will a great pain, i am going and hope you better handle" Celestial disappear.

The barrier around them break amd people standing around them looking all the teachers, Department Heads and a Girl in the barrier.

The Department Heads and teachers are on the ground gasping for Air, they are struggling while standing and crawling.

Nebula seeing them drop on ground, only 4 Department Heads are standing showing a decent condition.

"Hurry, move way, we need to help them" Lord Brandson for her niece said.

Others also follow this and take teachers to the infirmary or Healing room

As seeing their conditions no one stop the shift into different places to rest and recover.

Nebula spend a full day until the things calm down and the words are spread by the mouth of Higher ups.

She is strong but not strong enough to face the world that constantly answer to her and attending long meetings and talks with security like an interrogation.

She get protected by others and she is grateful, however she don't waste her time.

Nebula meditate and try to get stronger, she feel she is hadn't become stronger but the limits get loose and she is going towards Rank 5 being.

After the one day of rest she amd other Nobels before her get summons from home.

She meet with Cellena, Alfred, Corralena and others before packing her things.

She arrange a place for Alfred in her Nobel family guards to stay and a mercenary pass.

There are Mercenary who do work for money and even do dirty work but they get a huge amount of money depends upon work.

After arranging things she is going towards her Home now.

She stand in carriage after thinking 'yes, i am ready for it'.

"Come out Celestial" Nebula ask.

She is nervous, her hand shaken but she control herself.

"Yes,Master" Celestial reply, he behave like normal but things are not same in eyes of Nebula.

"So tell me who are you?" Nebula is determined to get everything from him today.

She is serious with no smile, waiting for answer.

"Let's relax, i think it will take a long time to satisfy you" Celestial said.

He summon a small table, tea and snacks.

"Fine" Nebula said taking tea cup but don't drink.

Celestial smile at her.

He is completely relax.
