Blessings of The Sun Chapter 52. True Blessing (1)
“So, how’s the enemy doing?” Keith asked with his mouth full of rice. He sat down alone in the dining table, as he stuffed his stomach. It had been a couple of weeks after the president’s order was declared. Since the security was tighten in the whole country, the group decided to rest first, by renting a small house outside of the capital area.Xion just came back from running a small errand in the town, and he looked around the house before answering his friend, “Bad. They’re attacking full-charge at every town in the northern area. Adam has closed the gate, no one is allowed to enter here. They’re just-““Waiting to be butchered,” Sierra cut him with her cold voice. Xion glanced at her who stood still at the kitchen and nodded bitterly, “Yeah. He’s crazy… Adam, I mean. And, based from what I’ve heard, some still managed to pass through with various ways.”“Let me guess; bribing the soldiers!” Keith spoke with apparent disgust by the thought that soldiers took advantage on the poor

Although the town was filled with guards, Sierra and Gray managed to sneak around skilfully. They walked further inside the town and then met with a dead end. “Huh?” Gray stopped as he stared at the high wall.“What should we do, Sierra? Should we climb the wall?” He asked the woman behind who looked at him thoughtfully.“Of course not, idiot,” She snorted, “Listen again to the voice that called you.”Gray nodded as he closed his eyes. Feeling something that called for him for days.Son… Come… I’m waiting…As he opened his eyes, Gray looked at Sierra with sparkling eyes, “Wow!! It’s below us!”Sierra smirked as she approved the kid, “Don’t forget this. You can’t just go charging around aimlessly, but you also have to feel every power near you.”Then, both of them looked around the alley to find the path to go down. “Oh! Sierra, it’s here!” Gray called for her. “It’s… a sewer,” Sierra crossed her arms, her face clearly stated a disgust. The boy knew how Sierra was uncomfortable with it

Xion’s lips parted as he questioned the lady, “You’re kidding, right? True Blessing is a myth.” Sierra glared at him and tiredly answered, “It’s not. It’s right in front of your eyes, Xion.”Gray looked up at the two people who glared at each other for the hundredth times already. “G-guys, what’s a True Blessing?” His question did work as Sierra averted her focus to the kid. Her eyes clearly showed uneasiness and complicated things that she hadn’t share.Gray waited for the explanation, but no words came out from her. Instead, Sierra turned her back to stand in front of the light as if she wanted to pry it opened. Xion decided to take over as he rubbed his neck tiredly, “I’m not sure, kid. It’s a legend; long ago, back in the earliest civilization that was written in the history. I don’t believe it though. Legend said, True Blessing was a destructive power that shaped the earth.”“It’s more than that,” Sierra added. With a long breath, she started to explain the history.“Long time ag

After Gray touched the light, for about five seconds, nothing happened. Then, suddenly a burst of light shot up, blinding Sierra and Xion’s eyes. When they opened their eyes, Gray laid down unconsciously, with light all over his body.“What the hell?” Xion murmured nervously and he nudged at Sierra for a clue. She said, “Don’t worry. It won’t hurt him; it probably speaks bullshits.”Xion nodded and then the tensions were removed from his body. He glanced at Sierra again, like he wanted to speak something, but realized it probably ended in fights.“… Speak already,” Sierra glared at him; she was also relaxed, with her arms crossed in front of her chest. Xion figured, while waiting the kid to wake up, it might be better if he just spoke with the woman.“So… you’re having the Sun’s blessing?” He started the conversation awkwardly.“Hm.” “There’s no records about that kind of blessing too,” Xion pondered; really, the woman beside him was just full with mysteries. “Yeah, I always good at
Blessings of The Sun Chapter 56. A Rotten Soul (1)
It’s been a couple of months again after Gray obtained his True Blessing. Now, he could control his power better than before. If Leon was knocked down by the clash, he would summon a soft barrier beneath his friend.“It’s crazy outside at the border.”Xion and Ketih just came back from scouting the area. Lately they kept doing that, so that when the time came, when the enemy came, they were prepared and could easily leave the city.The five of them sat down in their small, shared house. They were about to make their next moves. “The north towns are already occupied by the enemy. Thousands of soldiers are matching towards the gate at this moment, so freaking near.” Keith added grimly.“From what we’ve heard, Adam already dispatched almost his entire army to protect the gate. Probably hundreds of thousand,” Xion explained.“Why they’re focusing too much on the north gate?” Leon questioned them curiously. “Isn’t that too much risks to take? What about the south border or the east one?”“

After the men came back from supply run, Xion announced some bad news, “Adam is one paranoid man. Now, the city’s full of soldiers too. When we’re leaving tomorrow, I guess it’ll be with hundreds of people.”Keith rubbed his beard tiredly, which he started grew a month ago, “Great. Be careful not to lose each other, or even worse, lose our money.” They could see the kids were nervous, but there’s nothing they could do about it. Sierra nodded; she already walked with refugees hundreds of times, but this time, with the kids along, she felt uneasy too.She exhaled and announced, “Time to sleep. We’ll need that energy tomorrow to walk with the crowds.”Everyone agreed with her, and they entered their own rooms. Leon with Gray, Keith with Xion, and Sierra alone.“Hey, Gray,” Leon laid down on his bed, staring at the ceiling.“Hm? What’s wrong, Leon?” The other murmured quietly.“Now that you’re stronger, you should be able to protect Sierra, right?”Gray chuckled, still half asleep, “I hop

No one dared to let down their guard even for a second. Sierra was tense, she couldn’t stop herself from pacing back and forth in the damp cave. The smoke still rose above and they knew, morning would come soon since the sky was getting clearer and stars were already gone.Gray was worried sick about Leon. How could the other just leave without waking him up? What’s on his clever mind? In front of the kid, Keith stood close the fire, realizing the tense situation, he spoke, “Don’t worry too much. If Xion said he’d come, he’s going to be here.”Sierra suddenly heard a crack of twig; thus, she quickly raised her bow to the sound. Keith also drew out his sword. The black silhouette turned out to be someone they familiar with. However, he was alone.“Xion,” Gray gasped when he saw the handsome man covered with dirt and blood. He stumbled along, and Keith quickly aided his friend. “Where’s Leon?” Sierra trembled a little when she asked the man.Xion shook his head, then when he sat down, h

“Huh,”Sierra pondered as she stopped at the alleyway. Watching some drawings on the wall that usually would catch the attentions of those bounty hunters. “What?” Xion noticed that the woman suddenly stood silently, then he walked to her.Naturally, his line of sight also fell to the drawings. “Damn it,” He cursed. Sierra turned to him as she grinned, “Your first time become criminal?”Xion cleared his throat as he felt his cheeks flushed red. Then he stammered, “Of course, it is!” Looking at her calm face, Xion suddenly got it, “Wait. You ever became criminal too?”“Yeah, so many times actually.” Sierra suddenly smiled fondly, as if she was reminiscing something. “I was part of Habelon Liberation Army. In case you don’t know, it’s—”“What?! Are you serious?” Xion cut her fast. Eyes sparkled with stars in the night. It was his first time became so excited over something in a long time. “That’s the 10 years of war, Habelon vs. Beilgadi! It’s happened two hundred years ago; you’re telli
