Dark Magus Returns

Chapter 54 Survive Three Days



Chapter 54 Survive Three Days

Safa stood there for a moment and stared back into Raze's eyes. She was trying to gauge just what he was feeling right now. Based on his reaction, he knew about the earring, so did that mean it belonged to him?

He did, after all, tell her to give it to him if she was to stumble upon it, and she knew how Raze was about his things. If he was to find out that Simyon had it, then what would Raze do to him?

Would it be the same as what happened to Gren?

Safa hadn't even seen the state of Gren, but she was sweating on behalf of Simyon if Raze was to find out. On the other hand, she started to think, wasn't this something that Raze would find out sooner or later anyway, and if that was the case, maybe it would be better if Simyon was found out while Safa was there. That way, she could try her best to calm Raze down if need be.

Pumping her fist and a small nod of her head, she thought this was the right thing to do. It was the least she could do after Simyon had stood up for her and even took a beating on her behalf. He was a good person.

Safa nodded her head and pointed to her own ear, acknowledging that she knew about the earring. She then used two of her fingers to symbolize walking, with another hand behind.

For some reason, Raze understood what Safa was asking him; she was telling him to follow her.

'So she knows where the ring is?' Raze followed Safa through the hall, and she was heading to the other side, where some of the kids at the temple stayed. 'This isn't our room, so does that mean one of the other kids found it after all.'

Wild thoughts were running through Raze's head; he needed to prepare for the worst, but there was still a chance. Just because someone found the ring didn't mean they would wear it.

A knock was made at the door, but there was no response on the other end. Regardless, Safa had decided to slide the door open and head inside anyway, and Raze had followed. The rooms were small, so it didn't take long for the two of them to see Simyon lying on his bed, his eyes closed with the earring on his ear.

"Wake up!" Raze shouted immediately.

"Huh?" Simyon opened his eyes and was startled to see the two of them in the room and pushed his back up against the wall. "What are you two doing here?"

"Did you fall asleep?" Raze asked immediately. Ignoring everything else, it was the worst outcome possible. Not only had someone found the earring, but they were already wearing it, and if he had fallen asleep, it would have been too late.

"No, I just shut my eyes? Why are you asking, what are you two doing here?" Simyon said, still a little panicked, but he was starting to calm down. When looking at Safa, he didn't want to show such a side to himself, so he quickly recomposed and pulled himself together.

"If you really just shut your eyes, then why didn't you answer before?" Raze asked.

"I was deep in thought, and does it even matter if I fall asleep or not, this is my room?" Simyon argued back.

Safa was standing in the middle of the two, she was turning her head back and forth because she thought a fight was going to break out at any second, but that was when Raze had decided to back off and started to bite his thumbnail.

'This situation, when I made the ring, I never envisioned this was going to happen, but what do I do now?' Raze looked at Simyon; he seemed fine, and he couldn't feel the presence of a curse on his body.

That still didn't change another fact, that Simyon had put on the earring. 'It's no doubt that if Simyon falls asleep, he will suffer a cruel fate, one that is my mistake. Although I have no strong feelings towards him.'

'For some reason, he never told Kron about what he saw that day either. It isn't fair, I should at least give him a chance to fight back.'

"That earring," Raze pointed. "It's something that you should have never worn, but now you have done so, we cannot undo what has been done."

Simyon gulped. He didn't know what Raze was talking about, but just the serious look on his face, going along with his tone that was telling him the situation was grave, was worrying for him, and ever since he had put on the earring, he had a bad feeling.

"What I'm about to tell you may sound like some type of fantasy to you, but believe me it is very real. For anyone who wears that earring, they are not to remove it. You are not to sleep for the next 72 hours, nor eat or drink, if you do, a curse will fall on your body, you will go blind, you will go deaf, and lose all of your senses."

Raze didn't need to explain about magic; he didn't need to tell him where the ring came from or how he knew all of this. Because all of that would be pointless if Simyon couldn't survive.

"Come on." Simyon nervously laughed. "Raze, that's kind of a cruel joke. Come on, man, I'm already worried about this thing. Look, if you want it, I would give it to you, but the damned thing won't come off."

Raze looked deep into Simyon's eyes before saying the next words. "It's not a joke, Simyon. Do you know who had that earring before you? Don't you remember how that disciple from the Red Brigade clan acted?

"If you do any of the things I mentioned, then you will become the same as him, and there is no cure. If you don't believe me, you can ask Kron when he returns."

Safa knew Raze had been doing some strange stuff at night, and somehow he had managed to get his hands on power stones. To her, it didn't sound like Raze was lying, especially with the warning he had given her as well.

Looking at Simyon, she just nodded as well.

Simyon placed both hands at the side of his head and started to curl up into a ball. "But how... it's just an earring, what is this thing? I thought it was some weird sh*t when it attached to my ear like that. Three days, three days no food or sleep, is that even possible?" contemporary romance

Simyon was already affected just from learning the task ahead of him; with the way he was acting now, he was bound to fail. For a couple of minutes, he just sunk his head into his legs until he eventually looked up at Raze.

"Raze, you seem to know a lot about this earring, so I have to ask you. What happens if I succeed? Does it just mean that I won't be affected and can take off the earring, or is there a chance that I might become strong... like you?"

This response was surprising to Raze. Was this a little bit of hope? Was this what Simyon needed to be able to get through this? For him, things had just gotten interesting, and a smile appeared.

"If you succeed, you'll have power out of this world."
