THE SAVIOR'S
CHAPTER 72 BLACK STONE PART 1

            Winner was immediately on Sarayu's side when the Sarayu rescue process was successful. Winner even refused to return to his country because he wanted to ascertain Sarayu's condition and accompany Sarayu until he opened his eyes.

            “Are you going to let that Winner stay in our base??” Dylan, who was walking and looking at Ethan from the outside of Sarayu's room, asked Ethan, looking at Winner, who was sitting next to Sarayu's bed, without letting go of Sarayu's hand.

            “Because. . I intend to send him, Dylan-my best friend. But the decision to return Winner to his country like we did, in fact backfired for us. If we have to return it, we can't give Winner the usual bodyguards. I don't want to repeat the same mistake and get my partner in trouble again.” Ethan looked at Winner and Sarayu who were still asleep with a sad look.

            “Finally you chose to let Winner here??” Dylan repeated his question to Ethan. “And if Winner has to come back later, you will send Savior back to be her bodyguard again??”

            “It seems like there is no other choice, considering that currently Winner is one of the weaknesses of the Savior who became the target of Knight Arael.”

            “In the end Winner's love that lasted for many years will win.. .”ucap Dylan while smiling to see how Winner is always on Sarayu's side.

            “It seems. . . Their story won't be that easy, Dylan. Somehow. . . that woman-our Savior was involved a lot of things.”

            “What do you mean, Ethan??” Dylan frowned as he did not understand Ethan's current speech. “Is there something you haven't told me, Ethan??”

            “Let's. . once I get the certainty, I'll tell you, Dylan.”

            Ethan looked back at Sarayu who was still sleeping quietly on his bed. Upon seeing Sarayu, Ethan speaks to himself in his mind. Your life. . tied to many things, Sarayu. The man who owns the stone.. . The blood that flows in you, then the two men who have a relationship with you. One of them is someone you have to protect and the other is someone who may be the true owner of your heart. . . How did you get to this point, Sarayu? What choices have you made in your entire life to end up here and make you accept this fate?

            “We meet again, Son.”

            Sarayu was shocked when she heard a foreign voice in her ear. His head looked up where the voice came from. As soon as he looked up, Sarayu's eyes met the figure of the man with mist surrounding his face again and it didn't take long for Sarayu to recognize the figure.

            “You again???”

            “Didn't you feel good about meeting me, Sarayu??”

            Sarayu got up from her sleep and then tried to reach the man floating in the air. But no matter how hard Sarayu tried to grab her, her hand could never reach her.

            Damnit damnit! Sarayu cursed in her mind because she felt annoyed. “This time why did you appear before me again?? Why am I here again and see you again?”

            “Because the time is not long. In a moment. . . We'll both meet in the real world and since I'm already impatient, I want to meet you.”

            Cih, who would believe that??? Sarayu spoke in her mind while turning her face away.

            “You don't trust me?? Though I've always been honest with you, Sarayu.”

            “How do you know what I think??” Sarayu immediately turned her face towards the figure and now added a sharp look in her gaze.

            “I've been watching for a long time, Sarayu. I always watch your life where I am. Not only you, I also watch your life and your brothers.”

            “You must be a stalker, right?” Sarayu.

            “Then why do you see my life and the lives of my brothers??” Sarayu initially asked the sentence with idle intentions, because in her heart Sarayu had labeled the man as a stalker. But the answer Sarayu received was more than enough as an answer for Sarayu.

            “To choose one of you. I have to choose one person from you to hold this stone.” In the man's hand, a black stone was suddenly revealed which Sarayu recognized.

            “That rock. .”

            “This stone is mine, Sarayu.”

            Sarayu was surprised to hear a short remark from the figure of the man standing not far from her. This is impossible. How did the rock that Ethan said to be the meteorite belong to this figure?? Is he probably lying to me?? But. . if he were to lie, he wouldn't be able to know what the stone looked like because all this time that we received it was all part of the stone that had been split??

            “You must not believe my words, right??”

            Sarayu stared at the figure of the man sharply because once again, the figure was able to read what was inside Sarayu's mind. “What would you do if I didn't believe you??”

            “Nothing. I won't do anything.”

Sarayu saw a smile on the lips of the figure of the man. Although her face was covered by the mist, it was strange that several times Sarayu could clearly see the smile on her lips.

            “I. . This is not the kind of stubborn person when something happens. Even if I am in a precarious situation, I will be relaxed and leave everything to time. This time it's the same. If you don't believe me, I don't care because time will come in my place and the answer given by time is the most appropriate answer at the right time. Unfortunately. . . Some humans always like to be impatient and demand answers to their questions when they are not ready to receive it.”

            Sarayu furrowed her brows from not understanding the speech from the man. “So the point. . . You won't say much more about the stone and the reason why it is now scattered in the hands of some people??”

            “If for that. . . I will tell you, Sarayu. This stone. .” the man raised the black stone in his hand, brought it closer to Sarayu and made Sarayu look at it closer. “This stone should have come out of hiding at a predetermined time. The time I mean is the time where someone who is able to control and use it well is born into the world. The owner of this stone will be called the savior.”

            “Then. .because the stone has come out, was the real owner born? And where is that guy now?” sarayu asked as she organized her thoughts and digested what she heard.

            “I can't say it. But one thing is certain. . Something destined to be yours, they will still be yours even if it is lost. This stone has a master from the beginning, a master who has been appointed by him and later this stone will return to his master.”        

            Sarayu looked towards the figure of the man with a sharp look. “You want to tell me that someday my abilities will disappear from me, right??”

            “You responded once, Sarayu.” Once again. . . Sarayu saw a flash of smile from the figure of the foreign man.

            “Deliver yourself with this stone of yours and the accident that brought it into the world prematurely! Now tell me, why do you always keep an eye on me and my brothers??”

            “I have chosen you, Sarayu.”

            “You mean??”

            “I have chosen you, Sarayu. I have chosen you from all my descendants. I've been watching you all your life just to make a choice about who will be able to use this stone wisely.”
