Chapter 9 - The Guide

Twin Authors

Chapter 9

 

I sat alone on the beach at night, like I always did when I felt lost. The breeze was cold, the air sharper than usual—yet none of it was colder than my heart.

How can I overcome this and save Yarelia??

 

Then The System Window Appeared for me again, Unlike others whose window was blue, mine was always black.

 

It Said once again that I have met the requirements to activate Author's Authority, Which till now I don't know what the requirements are

 

Kota: Activate!

Once again I was give The Book and the pen, but this time the book didn't open on the abilities pages, instead it opened to a blank page with only one sentence in it.

 

The Sentence was "You Have Three Questions, Ask Wisely!!"

Questions, Really?? I Said that with a fainting smile.

 

Then I began writing, The First Question which was: How can I get stronger and awaken a class?

The Book Then Started Writing the answer:  "In order To Become a new version, you must destroy your old self, Break your limits"

 

"Pay a Visit to Stardust Temple in the Northwest in Valhala City."

 

"Learn to Face your fear,Your doubts and Endure your pain"

"Only then, Your Path will be revealed"

 

I couldn't understand much from what the book wrote, but the only useful information I got was to visit that stardust temple.

 

I then Started Writing The Second Question: Is There a Guide or a plan to make my friends stronger?

The Book Then Started Writing a Full guide for My friends, And the trainings they should do and follow in order to become stronger.

 

I recorded everything on my phone, to hand it to luicid later.

 

It was time for the third question.

Without hesitation, I asked the book what happens in the future if we went to save Yarelia now and what happened to her

 

The Book: "Such question needs a price, are you willing to pay it?"

 

I immediately accepted.

 

I saw shocking events, A Dark castle, Yarelia in a prison, Alfar with kaisel, And at the end I saw Yarelia but she was not the same, she looked older and colder.....

Few Seconds later, my Left eye started burning, with black flames….

It was hot, painful but what I saw in the future made me not even care about the pain.

 

The book Showed me the future, And Took my eye in return!!

Kota(Thinking): So The Future is Dark, And The price for what I saw was my Eye….

 

Before the Book Disappear, it wrote a line with a golden color.

And Those Lines were:

 

"Those Who Have been to the darkest places, Will shine the brightest even if all they have inside is darkness."

Then the Book was gone.

 

I went home tired, Covered my left eye which was now a scar, With an Eyepatch and knew what I have to do in the next day.

 

 

At The Association

Kota: Luicid, Can you gather everyone in your office?, I have something to say

Luicid: Consider it done.

 

At Luicid Office

Nora: Ko- What happened? Why are you wearing an eye patch?

Ash: Kotaa???

I sighed as I was removing the Eyepatch, showing them the scar that was left after I lost my left eye.

 

I began explaining everything from the beginning, from the fact we were in a nove I wrote, Since not everyone knew about that, And I explained the Author Authority skill and what happened to me yesterday.

 

Then I showed them my arms with the scars covering it, and started explaining my ability to travel back in time by death.

And what I did trying to prevent the kidnap, including the times I died which exceeded the five hundred times.

They all Looked Amazed and all looked with doubt, I knew they wouldn't believe me but at this point I have to tell them

 

Alfar, Whom I thought was on my side, Was just a Demon Lord Doing all of this for fun.

 

 But I didn't tell them about him afterall, I have to be the one to take his life.

 

Nora: You…. You are Joking, it can't be….

Luicid: Kota, This is not the time for such jokes…

 

They all stared at me, Mira Crying, Jumana said I lost my mind.

Meva Tried to get closer to cast a healing spell on me, Yet I moved away from here.

 

Kota: I know you guys wont belie---

Ash: I do.

Kota turned to him, confused: "What?"

Ash: Believe it or not, I Heard when you told yarelia about the time travel.

Ash: Beside that if your own brother didn't believe you, Who else will?

 

Kota's voice cracked. "Th-Thank you…"Tears slipped down from my right cheek

Yone: You really are an idiot, Fighting all of this alone.

Mira: Kota….

I Could see both Aliera and Jumana crying while looking at my

Arm full of scars.

 

Gerald: Alright, Now that you have told us all of this, You..

Definitely have a plan right?

 

Kota: Yes, But it will take a Few years.

 

Aaron: Few Years???, We can't Wait that long…..

Kota: I saw the future. Yarelia will be kept alive.We'll get her back. I swear.

 

Luicid: What's your plan then?

I handed Luicid the Guide I got from yesterday and told him to

Train everyone using it.

Luicid: What about you?

Kota: I'm leaving. There's a place I need to go... to grow stronger

Kota: Before I leave, Can we duel?

"I want to Test my Current Strength".

 

I began The Duel with luicid, using a wooden sword since mine

Was already broken.

 

Luicid was an elite ice wizard, Spikes from everywhere,

Ice Arrows raining down, Cold Breath to the point where The Floor of Arena was frozen.

 

I was No match to him, I was not even able to get closer to

Him, And in the end I lost the fight.

I still have a long time, Huh?? I said that with a small

Smile on my face.

 

Thursday 15th May 2025

At The City NorthWest Gates.

 

Mom: You have everything with you?

Kota: yes, mom don't worry.

Hazel: Kota… You will come back right?

Kota: I sure will.

I then Kissed Hazel and mom on the forehead, Gave Yone,

Aaron, Gerald and Marco a hug.

 

And a Long Hug to my brother….

 

I Told the girls goodbye but I leave, Mira, Nora

And Luicid approached me.

Mira: Take Care of your self.

 

Luicid: Take My sister's sword, Kota.

Kota: But you sai---

Luicid: Making someone worth Use it, is better than leaving it

With me to rust, Take it and Become Stronger with it.

 

Kota: i--- I Will, I promise.

 

Nora: Ko--- Kota…

"Take This Necklace With you."

 

Kota: a necklace??

The Necklace had a part which could be opened to place

Photos inside.

Nora: open it.

 

I opened it. On the right—a group photo from the party at Mira's house.

On the left—a photo of Yarelia, smiling.

Nora: One side to remind you of us.

The other… to remind you why you're fighting.

 

A single tear slipped down my cheek. I dried it and looked at her.

Kota: I will come back, And when I do Yarelia will be saved, I promise.

 

With this, I began A new Journey, One to become Stronger,

To Defeat Alfar, Save My friends and Destroy this Novel.

 

It was time for a New Rising, Even if I Will become a Chaos.

 

To Be Continued….
