The Search for Freedom

After many days of practicing magic with Cain, I totally forgotten and neglected my schooling. I had not told my parents yet about it, maybe they already noticed I wasn't going to school anymore, though I wasn't always in our house. Cain had promised me that my parents could not noticed it, but I could not be complacent because they seemed like cameras when watching me. Schooling could wait, but the curse could not, so I knew I made the right choice. The result of my training wasn't too bad at all. With Cain's help, I learned teleport myself from on place to another. The power of hearing also taught me how to focus on the thing I wanted to do, because it was needed the most in order to perform magic. If I didn't had on focus and thinking about other things, it would be difficult for me to teleport. But then, it was cool and incredible. I was grateful to the power of hearing, because of it, impossible things turned possible. Good to know that the curse did not attack me again after I had killed the first man who was destined to fight with me. I knew my freedom wasn't totally granted by the curse, as what Cain told me, it would be active again if I missed one of the hundred people. I should kill them all, so that the lives of that first one would not be in vain.

"Because you've learnt how to teleport, I think it's time to search the next person, we shall not make this thing longer because we both need freedom and to have a rest from this," Cain informed me.

"Do you have an idea if what kind person I need to kill next?" I asked.

"I didn't have an idea Lil, it's destiny which decides about anything, so you shall not waste the opportunity when fate favors to you, it can help you gain the things you want," he replied. "But I don't believe in destiny, because we can make our own."

"If you don't believe in destiny, your belief will, for sure, change, because it's destiny which will decide what will happen next, and even you will do your best to survive, if the whole universe decided not to let you survive, then you can do nothing against it."

"You know, it was all my mistake because I made my own destiny, I decided to accept the curse from you, I decided all things without thinking what could happened next, so believe that it was me who made and would make my destiny, nobody can stop me if I want to survive because I would do everything even I could risk your life."

"Well, everyone has their own belief and we need to respect that, there was nothing completely wrong at all because even a stopped clock is right twice a day."

"So where shall we go now? If you don't have an idea, it seemed that we'll only make ourselves fool to search for someone we can't find." "Don't worry about it, I'm powerful enough to say that I don't have any idea about the next person you need to fight with," Cain bragged.

"Are you sure you will bring me to the right place and not make me kill someone who's not really needed to kill?" I asked.

"That's what you're thinking again, I already told you to trust me as how I trust you, because I know more about this things than you."

"How can you say that you trust me if you're saying that you know more about this than I do. Can't you see that it only means one thing, that you also don't believe in my capability?"

"This conversation doesn't have any destination if there's no one who can condescend between us, condescend is an important thing to have a good partnership and I'm hoping that we can have it too."

"Okay... I'm kind to let you decide about what to do because it seemed that you won't condescend to me."

I knew Cain had more knowledge when it come to this thing. He was already thousands years old, so I must respect him though he seemed not respected. He was too old and I knew that he also knew the best thing to do, because he had more experiences than me.

Cain thanked me for giving way to the elder one, but he added that I wasn't so respectful. However, there was no need to worry, because he was only telling me the thing he'd observed. He told me that respect was important, especially when a man want to capture woman's heart, because matured people were not looking an outside appearance of a person.

"Thank you for your advice, but I'm also telling you 'I didn't need to capture woman's heart,' so you got to stop telling me all of these crap. You said you believed in destiny, so why won't you believe that destiny will find you the one who's fated for you?"

"We better search for the next person you need to kill. This conversation will just bring us to a further things and a time-cinsumed."

"You're right, but a continuous and long conversation is a good thing though it was time-consumed, because it can also bring us more knowledge about things from the point of view of each other."

"Can you just stop talking? Hold my arm and I will bring us to the other place to search for the person you need to fight with."

"Why I would hold your arm? I can bring myself there if I want, I don't need your help in transporting myself."

"You! How can you bring your-" Cain hadn't finished saying his words when I stared at him with an angry gaze. "Okay, if you're sure. You don't need my help though you don't know where we are going."

I was going to say a word when he said farewell, then he suddenly disappeared from the spot where he was standing. I didn't know if where he went. Perhaps he was mad because of what I said. Did I bragged too much? It didn't matter anymore. If he thought I could not know where he'd go, then he was wrong.

The power of hearing told me about the place where he went, so it was not difficult for me to go there too. I also knew that Cain would not touch someone who was destined to fight me. I should go back to home first to check my parents and I would let Cain search for that person.
