Blessing Curse (Curse of Blessing)
6. Fire and Ice
Moon Gi Tae finally came out of the palace of Hira with a state of intact, without the rest of the hanging or beheaded, the god is still good to him. But there was one thing he loved when he realized that he could not say goodbye to Sazhawa for the last time, however Sazhawa was kind to him.
Currently he had managed to escape from the princesses of Hira, but he was not a resident of Hira in the Northeast region of Daegun. He was unable to figure out the direction of the road like in the territory of the Sun Gu royal authority where he lived. And, again he got lost in the crowd of downtown Hira region.
Hira which is one of the kingdoms with leaders and residents who are not indigenous tribes of Daegun people is very foreign to Gi Tae. Although their faces are still somewhat cognate, but it cannot be denied that they look different. And right now, almost everyone who passed by him was not reluctant to pay attention to him with a certain look. Not judging him, but indeed the indigenous tribes of Daegun people such as the royal people of Jang Gu, Yang Gu, Cho Gu and others are very rare or even rare to live in the authority of the kingdom of Hira.
Gi Tae just kept walking in the crowd following his footsteps. The young man who prefers to be quiet this one looks so uncomfortable with the views of people around him. Every now and then he just lowered his head and glanced left right.
He should have just asked one of the residents there instead, so that he would know where to go towards Sun Gu kingdom. He wants to do that. But he also does not want to take the risk if later people ask him what his name and family are, or even worse, he was worried that later the person he came to was one of the witches who wanted him. His mind was currently fighting inside his head.
As Gi Tae was walking around, he suddenly heard the sound of explosions and flames clumping just after that which was seen coming from the west of the city center. Not only him, the residents in the city center also saw this. Four guards were seen running towards the blast, Gi Tae suddenly running after them.
Arriving at the location, it turns out that there is one large building that looks like the resident of one of the nobles who is burning, it can be said that because some people dressed beautifully like royalty look crying over his house, and his lackeys ran to put out the coals that were clumping to cover the sky above the resident using a wooden bucket.
Residents who saw this incident were suddenly made to creep. How not, a girl dressed simply, did not look like royalty but her aura radiated that she was one of them, emitting flames from both palms. The fire was originally burning quietly, but as he walked closer to a young man who was trembling in fear before him, the fire slowly grew. The petite and pretty girl slowly raised both of her palms on both sides by continuing while walking.
The four soldiers who ran with Gi Tae earlier also saw this incident, they looked so shocked after finding out who did it and tried to stop the little girl.
"Mr princess, please stop this will be dangerous for you later." one of the four soldiers ventured to speak to her.
The girl who had flames on both palms looked furious as someone stopped her.
"Stay away from me if you don't want to burn!" the girl angrily ordered the Hira soldiers not to interfere.
"No princess, you must stop this, otherwise we will stop you." prune one of the fellow soldiers bravely.
"Oh... You want to stop me??" said the girl with a grin and a smile "huh! try it if you can!" he added as he pointed his palm at the two soldiers before him. The flying fireballs swiftly struck the two soldiers who were talking to him, burning their chests to the point of causing him to bounce.
The other two soldiers were surprised to see this. Suddenly they helped his fellow soldiers who were hit by the fireball violently earlier and pulled him up.
The fire girl grinned satisfied to see the fear on their faces, as well as the residents who were watching it, they were getting creeped out by the sight before them at this moment.
Until something finally flowed into her body, she did not know what it was because it felt foreign to her. His body did not feel any pain while receiving the foreign energy, instead he felt stronger than usual.
Gi Tae scanned his arms, the flow of foreign energy felt so strong that it might attract the attention of other energies nearby.
The girl with fire who was about to follow the attack suddenly stopped her steps. He felt a great energy being near him, the girl sweeping her vision to the surrounding residents who were watching the incident. In the end, the fire girl's eyes stopped on Moon Gi Tae, the young man who radiated a powerful energy that only she could feel, the girl with high magic.
Not long after, another girl dressed as a female swordsman wearing white clothes flew gracefully and quickly across the population, and suddenly it caught their attention.
"whusssh!!!"
The flying girl took something out of her right palm towards the burning building, as the building, which had been engulfed by fire, was now frozen in ice.
Everyone who witnessed it gasped in admiration. Although many of them master magic, but only people with very high magic power can do it. The usual magic performed by normal people is only limited to removing sparks or moving items with the inner eye, he said, the higher level that an ordinary mage could take was to fly or extinguish a small fire by manipulating the wind, and that would require decades of training, it was impossible for this girl who looked young enough to do such training.
For a level like the two girls who can take out a fireball to burn a building and fly by freezing the flames into ice, of course it is only owned by witches with descendants of pure magic that has been maintained since centuries ago.
--
After making sure that there were no embers left, the girl who possessed the ice magic flew rapidly away from the attention of the residents.
"Mom, I want to be like that big sister." a little girl shook her mother's hand and pointed towards the ice girl's departure in awe.
Gi Tae who heard this also could not cover his admiration, just like the other residents.
But in the midst of his awe, suddenly Gi Tae feels someone embrace and take him flying. It happened so fast that he did not have time to process what happened.
