Klein realized that he was in a grassy field near the villa of a rich businessman in East Chester City. Immediately knowing his current location was only possible because of being a cryptologist at the level of an angel.
"I never knew that stealing something trivial would be so addicting." Klein said to himself as he looked into the horizon. He just recovered from the feeling of euphoria. It was addicting, but he has also knew how to control himself. He knew he shouldn't be swept by this feeling of pleasure.
Now that he thinks about it, this fits to the description of beyonders from Marauder pathway. Beyonders from this pathway finds enjoyment in swindling others.
But if this is really that case, does that mean that his mental state is the same to that of low sequences?
As an angel, he should be facing a will to become extremely cold and terrifying, but he felt no such thing. Instead, thoughts to steal and do mischievous things will appear in his mind.
His thoughts portrayed no such things, but if he were to used cogitation, he will sense it form the deep of his soul.
Klein sighed heavily as he recall the events earlier.
Truth to be told, he felt rather regretful that he dropped everything he stole. Most of them were food, and although as an angel, Klein doesn't need to eat or sleep, doing trivial things is still more entertaining than doing nothing.
He began walking as he contemplated wether he should just switched location with his marionettes or not.
To other people, this would be described as nothing but plain stupidity. But for an angel like Klein who can live for eternity, he is not bound by the common sense and logic. He can sleep for an entire week, but for him, it feels as though it was just a light nap in the afternoon.
Klein halted his movement as he saw something in front of him. It was strings that was connected from his body— unknown as to where it came from, but at the same time it's not. It doesn't have any color or form, but it was tightly wrap around his hand up to his shoulder and unto his heart,as if it was declaring that it won't leave.
It was a strange and questionable phenomenon that will make other people's scalp tingle. It contains horror beyond the understanding of human, and even beyonders that are not angel or demigod of pathways associated with fate.
Klein look silently at the scene as he trace the string. It extend to the vast distance, to the forest— and into the nearby village surrounded by trees, 5 kilometers away from here.
Klein's lips moved slightly as his pure black eyes turned cold. His hair sway as the atmosphere around him turned strange, as if a terrifying monster was sealed within him.
He stood there emotionlessly as he looked ahead, into the direction of the village. And with a single step of his foot, his entire surrounding changed.
With a thought, he stole the distance, turning the 5 km into a single step. Of course, this is under the premise that the entire area is concealed and is within his vision.
At the level of mid sequence, beyonders from the Marauder pathway can steal distance or position, creating an effect similar to short distance teleportation within a certain area. Of course it's entirety different to traveling that uses the Spirit World.
This power will meet a qualitative change once the beyonder became a demigod and angel.
Klein arrived in front of the village and found it to be rather the contrast of the well advanced and lively city of Backlund. This village gave the feeling of being peaceful and calming, different from the noisy city that is filled with cars and other vehicles.
After confirming that there were no danger, Klein immediately switched location with his marionette.
It was time for him to know why this village cause his own destiny to fluctuate—even by a little.
....
Elland Charles. He remembers that when he's still a child, all he would do is worries about wether his favorite candies were still available at his favorite store.
Now, all he cares for is the way he looks, his attire, how he acts and his own future. And he himself knew it.
But this all changed when what happened to his entire family.
Last year, his dad and mother lost their job due to some unknown reasons, causing his entire family to fall into a state where even a single piece of bread is important.
They could no longer afford to pay the bills of the house and they decided to live in the village his uncle lives.
This village was rather large, mad it's one of the only villages in the country of Loen till this day, one of the reasons why this village continues to persist in staying primitive despite the economy continuing to advance is because of a single thing.
The Goddess of the Lake.
In his first months of living in this village, Elland himself didn't believe that such existence exist.
The deities that's known to those days are The Goddess Of Darkness, The Almighty, God of Technology and Economy, The God of Laws, The God of War, The Goddess of Life.
These Gods are popular in different countries. The Goddess of Darkness was popular mainly in the Loen, The Almighty was popular in the sea, the God of Technology and Economy's domain is Intis, God of Laws headquarter is in East Bayam, The God of War is in West Bayam, and the Goddess of Life is popular in the Feynapoter.
These are the deities that's accepted in these days. So how could another unknown goddess appear? Specially in a village like this.
That's what Elland thought at first, but then he met the so called goddess, and realized that "She" was actually the real deal.
He can't remember anything, the face, voice of the goddess. He can't even speak the location of whee the goddess was located, as of something was stopping him from doing so, but it's fine since he has no intention of telling anyone.
This secret will remain hidden for long eternity. He will be the only one to know this.
"She" told him "her" real name. It was;
Evernight.
