Chapter 18 The Real World
1206words
Suddenly, a man's voice spoke to me softly, "Can I sit here?"
I immediately looked forward, seeing a man who had just been to the match I was watching. He is the head of the vampire who attacks Lily with dark magical abilities. Theo is the man's nickname.
"Yes, of course. Please!" I answered, a little surprised but still polite.
The man put the book on the table and sat opposite me. His eyes looked at the table and the books I was reading.
"What are you studying?" Theo asked me with a face full of interest.
"I'm reading a book about sacred objects and how to return to the original world, I mean the real world," I answered enthusiastically.
"Oh, that's interesting! You haven't found your way home yet? Newcomer!" Theo asked with curiosity and a desire to help.
"Yeah, right! I haven't found my way home, and it's a newcomer," I said with disappointment.
"I'll help you find a way home if you want!" Theo said with a friendly smile.
"I am very grateful for your offer of help, Theo. You must have extensive knowledge about portals between worlds. We have not met before. My name is Moon Rosela. You can call me Moon," I said kindly.
"Sure, Moon. Nice to meet you. My name is Theo Heinrich Navarre. My friends usually call me Theo," said Theo as he took my hand to shake.
By establishing a new relationship with Theo, Moon hopes to find the help and knowledge needed to understand the book about portals between worlds and find a way back to the real world.
"Earlier, you called me by my name. Have we met and known each other before?" Theo asked curiously.
"Ah, no. This is the first time we are talking. I saw your name on the match board, and I watched your match against Grey Wolfred. In that match, you showed extraordinary strength and ability," I praised his fighting ability.
"Thank you for the compliment. But I lost that match, and there are still many things I need to improve in the future," answered Theo.
"But don't worry, every defeat is a valuable lesson. I'm sure if you hone your skills further, maybe in the next match, you will be the winner," I said confidently.
"Thank you for your support. I can read books with ancient characters to you if you want me to do that!" Theo said while pointing at the book on the table.
Theo suspected that Moon's difficulties were only because Moon couldn't read the book well and because it used ancient letters that were difficult to understand.
"You can read ancient characters?" Moon asked in awe.
Theo smiled, "Yes, I have mastered the ability to read ancient characters. It is one of my interests and skills that I have developed over the past few years."
"Wow, isn't that an extraordinary talent? Can you explain this mysterious book to me?" I asked Theo while showing him a book page, how to return to the place of origin or the real world. The extraordinary ability of a book that has been lost for centuries is written on the page. The book that everyone is fighting over is almost familiar to me. I suspect the missing text is the same as the book in my apartment.
"Yes, of course! It's just a mystery book. Kunon has a lot of power stored in it," said Theo while enthusiastically explaining to Moon the powers and mysteries in the book.
Theo explains that the book can bring someone back to their place of origin or the real world.
"This book is about instructions for returning to the world of origin. Everyone here has a different way when they want to return to their world of origin. In Undermoon, anyone who comes will have good physical abilities, especially those who are physically paralyzed. Here, their physique will be improved, and they will be able to move freely like in the real world," said Theo excitedly.
"How do you return to the original world?" I asked Theo curiously.
"I looked at the mirror! Then I read a special spell that was only for me. Everyone else did, too. They would look in the mirror and start saying something. The spell would activate, and then the mirror would attract them and bring them back to the real world or to the Undermoon world, depending on their goal," said Theo with a full explanation to Moon.
I looked at Theo; he was the second handsome man I met in Undermoon after Grey Wolfred.
"Is there any other secret? I want to try my spell, but I'm afraid of failure," Moon asked Theo, hoping to get more information about how to return to the original world and possibly reduce failure.
"There are no other secrets, Moon. Except that the glass used as a mirror must be special, it cannot be just any mirror. This is because the mirror has special powers connecting the Undermoon world with the real world. Now, you only need to buy a small mirror from the Undermoon academy staff, "Then you will be able to try your spell in the hope of returning to the original world," Theo said confidently to Moon, giving clear instructions on how to return to the original world.
"I thank you for your explanation, Theo. I will immediately try my spell and buy a special mirror to try to return to the real world," I said excitedly.
"No problem, happy to help you. Hi, Moon! Why is someone like you in Undermoon? Even though you don't have any power. I heard you and Lily went to check the power on the holy crystal. But it didn't work. Sorry, I suddenly asked this. "This is you," said Theo with great curiosity.
"You're right, Theo. I'm not a figure who has great powers like those in Undermoon. I also don't know why I'm on Undermoon without special powers. It was a sudden incident. Lily has helped me very well until now," I answered, full of appreciation for Lily.
"I see. If you treat me as a favour, you can contact me. This is my number and business card," said Theo while giving his business card to Moon.
"Thanks, Theo. I will definitely contact you if I need help or have further questions. Thank you for all your knowledge and time," I said gratefully to Theo.
"No problem, happy to help. Hopefully, your spell and special mirror will bring you back to the real world. I believe you can do it. OK, I have to go now. See you again, Moon," said Theo, immediately getting up from his seat and leaving Moon enthusiastically. and with great gratitude. Theo brought a book, which was placed on the table.
"Yes, of course. See you later, Theo," I said with a smile and burning hope.
Theo went to meet the librarian of Undermoon Academy. I started to reflect on what Theo had said before. I must have a unique mirror to return to the real world.
