The Escapades
Episode 9

“What ... happened?”

Tcesni shut her up in disbelief over what they just saw.

Everyone is surprised!

“How can this be?”

The hero walked in accompanied by Heaven and a few other little elves.

Tcesni flabbergasted in disbelief. “Two hours ago I checked it and it hasn't gotten this bad.”

“Are they alive?” tanya Wira worriedly stared at the little fairies lying unconscious on the floor that was almost frozen.

“Still!” said one of the little fairies shimmered the blue light while wrapping her friend's body in a warm blanket and taking them to another room for treatment.

Heaven saw that thing in front of him, the coldness was coming from there and it made his fingers numb, his lips felt very dry now.

The hero approaches the heart of the ice whose tendrils are connected to the tree of life.

It was beating like a heart but the beat was very weak and the nerves covering it were purple.

The sound of his beating made Heaven's blood rustle strangely as if his blood was boiling and wanted to explode.

“Ice poison.” The hero stared at the thing as his eyes narrowed.

“Master, what will we do now?” He was still sitting on the floor, looking anxiously at his Master.

  The soul exhaled a rough breath, its facial water looked agitated.

“You see how else, there is no other way,” he said again looking at the ice-cold ticking object.

Tcesni gasped round her eyes then shouted, “No! No, you can't do that!”

Her tears came out without being held back. Will the hero sacrifice himself? He did not want to lose his master!

“Mother sacrificed herself for me, I sacrificed myself for you. Impasse right?”

His eyes glanced at Tcesni who covered her face with her palms, her roar becoming more and more heartbreaking to anyone who heard it.

“Tcesni, don't cry. Everything must be fine.” Heaven bent over trying to grab Tcesni's shaken shoulder from her cries.

But not yet had his hand reached, sharp thorns instantly emerged from Tcesni's body as he bellowed furiously,“Don't touch me!”

The thorns instantly sprung from Tcesni's body and injured Heaven's numb hand, a few drops of blood that almost touched the floor flew through the air and headed towards the bluish ticking object in front of them.

The scene was witnessed by Wira and Tcesni.

Slowly the purple color on the nerves of the icy heart fades and is replaced with a beautiful green color!

The warm energy thump hit them as the poison loss in the ice heart and the beat now normalized.

The bone-freezing cold is now replaced with a comfortable warm feeling, such as when you are in a blanket in the rainy season.

“Heaven ... ”

“Not me, really!”

Heaven panicked as the netra of the two different beings in front of him stared at him, demanding an explanation.

The atmosphere became silent, they stared at each other in confusion and thoughts for a while until the sound of the formation door opened.

“Nona Tcesni, things outside are back to normal!”

Tcesni's eyes immediately sparkled. “Good, quickly check in whole!”

The hero walked up to Heaven, grabbed his injured hand and still bleeding.

“I don't know what happened, but thank you.” The spirit froze Heaven's wounded skin and the blood stopped instantly.

“You are an ice element user?!”

Heaven was very surprised by that. The one who is able to control the ice element is able to control the wind and water element, so the hero has at least mastered the three elements!

“No, my soul is an ice soul not an element. Elements resulted from training and heart union while I was already born with the ice element,” explained the hero.

They had come out of the big tree and looked around to check.

“Ice soul? I've never heard of anything like that.”

Wira did not elaborate further, her golden netra sweeping across the land as she calmly said, “Heaven, do you have the bloodline of Phoenix?”

Heaven thought for a moment then shook his head.

He himself is not sure because in fact he is a child found by a good person who is now called by ‘Daddy’.

Although never disturbed by reality, there are times when Heaven wonders why he was banished, or whether he was born of a stone or he came out of the ground?

If he was banished why his parents were so cruel why not just kill him in the first place.

But no matter how hard Heaven hates reality he is also incapable of doing much more than living life. At least he can't die before he prides himself on his father.

  “Well, whatever it is at least now it's all back to normal right?”

Heaven nonchalantly walked towards the edge of the lake as he said, “ayo come home, I am so hungry!”

Heaven still continued to train under the rushing waterfall.

The sun had already risen to the highest peak and he was still immersed in the training session that the Hero had given him, his shoulders were now numb.

The water that fell from that height was like a dagger that descended from the sky.

While Heaven was training crazily, Wira sat under the tree while drinking her tea and eating a snack.

Tcesni had just come to bring lunch for them, the problem in the tree of life was over even the ice heart was now becoming very good and better than before.

“Can't you let him rest for a moment?”

Tcesni took out a lot of food from the basket she was carrying.

“There is a price to pay to be strong.”

That was all he said and Tcesni did not continue persuading his master. He understood very well the character of the Hero, if he said Heaven should succeed in one week then that was what had to happen.

Heaven insisted on mastering the ice element like Wira and managed to get the Hero to finally help her practice but now that she was a little regretful, Wira did not even allow her to rest even for a while.

Heaven was still sitting under the waterfall splash until the next two days, he was already completely immersed in his subconscious right now.

At the middle of the third night

The full moon is at its peak

Heaven opened his eyes intensely as he jolted from his lower realm then laughed loudly.

He woke up limp and all his limbs were sore, his entire shoulder was bruised as it was holding a huge, very heavy stone.

Someone jumped from a tree.

“Congratulations on his enlightenment.”

Under the full moonlight that night the Hero looked as charming as ever. Heaven only smiled weakly then fainted when Wira caught him.
