"...maybe you should go towards the left or keep going straight."
As soon as I gave a nod as confirmation he bolted right while I continued straight.
"He really is strange."
When I first meet Lue for the first time today, I could only describe him with one word Strange.
I say strange but from the outside he looks like a normal person he has the same deep violet eyes and skin tone as his mom, and the dark hair of his dad.
But what stood out as strange to me is the tiny things that would happen in passing.
Like the faces he makes for short amounts of time as if he was talking to an imaginary friend, or the way he seemed like an older brother when he got angry at me when I talked about his sister ability.
For the most part I'm a shy person my parents, my mother especially has tried to help me step out of my shell which is one of the reason we came here today. At first I thought that he was just shy like me but that wasn't the case he wasn't shy he just had no interest in interacting with me.
His eyes may of been the same color as his mother's but the emotions behind them were completely different.
That's why when he suggested for us to play hid and seek I was surprised.
His sister on the other hand was the opposite, from the first moment I interacted with her I could tell she was outgoing, bright, and kind. I could also see just how much she cared for Lue, which made me want to get closer with her as well.
The reason I brought up the topic of blessed core ability is because my recently awakened, and it seems it was quite early. So I wanted to try bonding over that but instead I seemed to offend her.
Since I have an active blessed core ability my physical and mental ability are above a normal four year old and because I have been running for a while, from what I can tell while I started going straight I seem to have turned towards the right midway.
Hopefully I'm not to close to Lue, I don't know how serious he is taking this game but if I end up near him and we both get found after he told me to split up he may get even more mad at me.
I looked for the nearest tree and after stretching my legs a little bit I jumped up onto a branch of the tree.
"I should be hard to find as long as I stay here."
With that the wait begun, I wonder how long I'll have to stay hidden?
Rustle, Rustle
While waiting to be found about forty minuted have passed until I heard sounds of someone approaching.
At first I thought it would be Bridgett making her way towards me but instead it was Lue.
He seemed to be out of breath as if he was rushing to get here, I was going to call out to him but then he did something strange.
He sat down with his legs cross and his hands interlock in-front of him and closed his eyes. I didn't understand what he was doing, but I felt as if something was about to happen, it was at this point that I felt the atmosphere change.
What followed was this tugging sensation in my blessed core, it felt as if someone was trying to pull out the Edirem powering my core but nothing came out and I had a feeling this someone was Lue.
A few seconds after this feeling begun I saw Lue emit an orange light before burst of fire, wind, and water surrounded Lue. Along with that the Earth around him begun to shake.
I knew from personal experience that the orange light signified that Lue blessed core had been activated but the burst of elements were something I only heard of from the instructors.
But I was told that if you have an active blessed core ability you can't controls the elements so how does Lue have both.
In the midst of my confusion and amazement the burst of elements stoped and our eyes locked and for a moment before he passed out.
Right after he passed out maybe because of the small earthquake that happened around him a tree seemed to be uprooted and was going to fall on him.
In a panic I immediately jumped off the tree and allowed the Edirem in my system to power my core to which a rapier materialized out of thin air.
This was my blessed core ability Greater swordsmanship-rapier variant, the ability allow the user to slowly work up proficiency in one type of blade and allows them to manifest that sword from their blessed core.
Depending on the sword you choice a special effect will be added to the sword for my special effect is swords Aura, as I gain more proficiency in my ability the size and type of Auras will grow but as for now I only have one type.
I coated the sword in a small Aura that my current Edirem levels would allow and in one swift motion sliced through the tree.
The cut was so clean that it took a while for the tree to split apart and when it did the two ends landed on opposite sides of Lue.
I returned the sword to my blessed core and went to check on Lue, he seemed to still be knocked, I was till slightly in a panic but I had to decided what to do.
I could bring adults over here but if I had to make a guess Lue came to this area to hid what he was going to do he maybe even decided to play the hide and seek game for this purpose and if I went and brought adults over he would probably be very mad.
After putting my ears next to his face just to make sure he was breathing I decided that It was for the best that I just sit here and wait it out.
While waiting I couldn't help but be even more mystified by the boy the same age as me named Lue.
"Ha Ha Ha."
I guess using my rapier combined with moving around a lot more than I'm used to tired me out, when I was about to lay down on the grass to sleep for a little bit Lue shot up.
He looked around for a bit before showing multiple facial expression like he was talking to someone.
This continued for a few minutes until it seemed like he had finished whatever conversation he was having he then turned and looked at me while smiling.
"Lets have a quick chat."
It didn't seem like he was asking but instead simply informing me of what was going to happen next, at this moment I regretted not going to get an adult after he passed out.
