"Lead The Way!".
Says El-Mond.
Glacier With Incredible Speed Heads Of.
And El-Mond Follows But Not Before Instructing Eldred To Bring Along Nina.
As They Left. A Man In White Cloak Covering His Whole Body And Face.
Looks Up Behind Him And At Glacier With A Creapy Grin.
He Looks Away. Starts Walking And Ripping Apart The Space.
Dissappears Through It.
Glacier And Rest. Arive In A Simple Walled In Two Bedroom Courtyard.
"Grandma!".
Calls Out Glacier As She Rushed In One Of The Buildings In The Courtyard.
Her Voice Panicked And Worried.
She Sees Her Grandmother Laying On The Bed Motionless And Was Even More Worried And Panicked.
"Grandma!. Grandma!.
What's Wrong With You?
Please Open Your Eyes".
Says Glacier Her Eyes Watery.
"If You Will Allow.
Can I Feel Her Pulse?".
Says El-Mond As He Stood Behind Glacier Who Was Sitting On The Bed Holding Her Grandmother's Hands.
She Gets Up And El-Mond Proceeds To Sit And Check The Pulse.
A Few Seconds Go By And El-Monds Eyes Widens!.
His Expression Was Like Someone Who Had Remembered A Horrible And Familiar Memory.
As He Stared At Glaciers Grandmother.
"Your Grandmother Has Been Poisoned".
"What!?.
Poisoned!?".
Replies Glacier In Shock And Anger To El-Monds Statement.
"Yes.
I'm Very! Familiar With This Poison".
Says El-Mond Looking At Glaciers Grandmother Very Steadily.
"Can You Save Her!?.
Please Young Master Save My Grandmother.
I Know I'm Already In Your Debt. But. But.
Please... Save My Grandmother".
Says Glacier Falling To Her knees Infront Of El-Mond.
"She's Your Grandmother And Your Saviour.
Without Her I Wouldn't Have Got The Chance To Meet You.
Ofcouse. I Will Save! Her".
Says El-Mond As He Hurriedly Held Glacier Up.
"And I Have A Question I'd Like To Ask Her Too...".
Thinks El-Mond To Himself As He Looked Back At Glaciers Grandmother.
His Expression Reflecting A Worried Look.
But He Was Rather Wary And Curious About Her.
He Requests For A Knife Or Something Sharp.
Immediately Glacier Rummages Through A Drawer And Finds A Scissor.
El-Mond Taking It Relaxes His Ability And Cuts The Palm Of His Hand With It.
"Young Master!".
Says Glacier Startled And immediately Wanted To Approach El-Mond.
But El-Mond Lifts Up His Left Hand Signaling Her To Stop And Not Worry.
He Then Proceeds To Drip Some Of His Blood Into The Mouth Of Glaciers Grandmother.
After A Few Seconds. He Stops And Reactivates His Ability. And Instantly Heals Himself.
"Now Let's Wait.
She Should Wake Up Any Moment".
Said El-Mond.
And As Soon As His Sentence Ended.
The Old Woman's Eyes Opens.
"Grandma!.
I Thought I Lost You!".
Cried Glacier As She Hugged Her On The Bed.
"I'm Sorry I Worried You My Dear.
Don't Cry Don't Cry".
Responded The Old Woman.
Taping Glacier Gently On The Head As She Layed On Her.
"It Seems My Guess Was Right About The Absolute Revival.
But Let's Leave That For Later.
I Need To Find Out What Is Going On With This Woman!".
Thinks El-Mond To Himself.
The Old Woman Then Sees Eldred Beside Nina And El-Mond At The Back Of Glacier As She Was Laying On Her.
" Dear.
These Are...?".
Says The Old Woman As She Stared Between El-Mond And Eldred.
Glacier Then Proceeds To Tell Her All That Had Went On Two Months Ago And How Their Current Present Came To Be.
But Left Out The Part Were She Took El-Mond For A Long Lasting Ride.
As Her Face Turned Red. Shy And Embarrassed. When she Thought About It.
"Wow.
My Glacier Is Now A Strong Woman Too".
Said The Old Woman Her Hand On The Cheeks Of Glacier.
"You Don't Look Suprised!".
Said El-Mond As He Could See A Glimpse Of An Unsurprised Look On The Old Woman's Face As She Smiled.
" For Saving Glacier.
I Will Give You The Chance To Explain How That Poison Got Into Your System.
Because! I KNOW!.
ITS NOT SOLD ON THE STREETS!".
Spoked El-Mond.
His Energy Rising By The Second And His Demeanour Changing From Pleasant To A Deathly One.
"Young Master?...".
Softly Spoke Glacier Grabbing Unto
El-Mond's Hand.
Snapping Him Out Of His Growing Rage.
"Sigh..
Glacier My Dear. I've Been Keeping Something From You".
Says The Old Woman With A Saddened Look.
"What Are You Talking About Grandma?".
Asked Glacier Puzzled.
"My Name Is Tiajna Blade".
"Huh!?. Tiajna Blade!?".
Blurts Out Nina In Shock When The Old Woman Said Those Words.
"What's Wrong Nina?.
What's With That Reaction?".
"Glacier You Don't Know Because You Only Started Working At The Blue Steel Pavilion For Only Two Years.
But I've Been There For Five Years.
Learned And Heard Alot Of Legends.
And One Of The Legendary Figures That Used To Frequent There Decades Ago.
Was Tiajna Blade.
AKA.
THE REAPER!
He Or She Was A Top Assassin. That Even Ninth Rank Emperor Evolvers Feared.
But He Or She Suddenly Disappeared Upon Taking On A Task From A Major Sect.
No One knows What Sect it Was Or What The Task Was".
Replies Nina To Glaciers Question.
"Huh....?".
Utters Glacier Her Face Still Puzzled.
