The large lit-torch dimmly lit the dark room, as K entered.
There were shards of glass, splinters of wood, and clothing pieces on the floor.
K could only imagine what had happened, as he continued to walk down the large hallway of the room.
An ear-piercing buzzing could be heard from down the hall, which slowly began to drown out.
K held his hands over the entirety of his ears, though was quick to return his hands to their regular position.
As he finally reached a set of stairs, with a door at the top, he was quick to pass them.
The new room he had entered was pitch black, even with the light of the fire from the torch.
"What is all this?" K questioned himself, as he continued to walk further within the room.
As he walked further and further, he began to hear a light ringing within his left ear.
His ears began to slightly hurt, though he continued to push forward.
If he could not make it to the end, what would the point of going all this way be?
K's feet continued to bang against the rocky and broken stone floor.
After walking for around ten minutes, he had finally reached the last door.
The inside of the door, would likely hold the explanation for all that had happened in the past month.
"I'm kind of scared... but, I came all this way." He hesitated at first, though eventually proceeded to pull down on the handle of the door.
A bright light had lit up the darkness of the room, revealing a beautifully colored forest.
Mostly everything were colored in shades of green, though the water was a tropical blue.
How could this be the answer?
K sighed as he was now stumped.
This content has been unlawfully taken from Royal Road; report any instances of this story if found elsewhere.
He decided to turn around, and begin his journey back home.
"I would have brought some of them along if I know this would happen." He pout, and sighed.
Back at the large mansion, Mayu and L were using water magic to spray each other.
With each spray, the two became more and more drenched with water.
The both of them had been laughing, and continued to mess around.
Aikuri seemed to be pissed off, as she evaporated the next water shot with her burning hot fire magic.
"You two... giant nuisances!" she lashed out, and hit both of them on their heads with a deeply large amount of force.
Mayu and L fell to their knees, holding their aching heads.
"That hurt Aikuri!" Mayu yelled out and pouted, as L was just about to burst out crying.
The grassy field behind the mansion was now just about completely drenched by the two, and a small part was scorched and burned by Aikuri.
The three had managed to cause a decently large amount of damage, which wasn't a good thing.
It took Aikuri a decently short amount of time to eventually call in Oko, who just happened to be great at earth magic, to fix the whole field.
Shehad a smile on her face, and simply giggled at the amount of chaos the three had caused, whilst repairing the field.
Aikuri grabbed Mayu and took her into the showers to get the two cleaned up.
Oko did the same with L, and helped her wash her hair.
As the four exited the showers, they changed into 'casual wear', which K had given them as gifts.
"These are a little... tight." Aikuri complained, and pulled the red t-shirt down over the blue sweat pants she wore.
Oko wore a green t-shirt, with some sweat pants, similar to what K wore.
Mayu and L had slightly different clothing, where Mayu wore a white t-shirt with black shorts, and L with a black t-shirt and white shorts.
The two in shorts were doing what they always seemed to do, mess around and play games.
Oko yawned, as she stretched and exercised her muscles.
Finally, Aikuri tended to preparing dinner for the four whom remained in the mansion currently.
The meals she made were always something exquisite, and ultimately delicious.
Aikuri made a cutlery meal of pork, steak, and vegetables such as green beans and carrots.
The other three in the mansion, Oko, Mayu, and L, all stared at the food as if it were shining like gold.
"T-This is amazing.." Mayu and L spoke out, whilst drool came from their mouths.
Aikuri blushed and smiled "I'm not all that good at cooking..." she seemed quite happy.
The four dug in, and began to eat the delicious meal made by Aikuri.
L finished slightly earlier than Mayu, and was quick to speak. "We should give some to Karma!" she smiled with enjoyment, and awaited for a response.
Aikuri looked at L for a short while, "I don't think we can, since he wont be back for awhile."
Mayu and L both stared at eachother, and then to Aikuri. "He wont be?" the two were in a perfect sync, as they spoke.
Oko and Aikuri nod their heads, yawning.
"It's about time we goto sleep young ones." Oko spoke in a friendly voice, as she took the two upstairs toward their room.
Aikuri cleaned up, and followed Oko back upstairs to goto bed.
Meanwhile, K was finally exiting the darkened and beat down house.
He was tired, and was sore all over his body.
Though, K had to continue walking.
Once he reached a nearby town, he stayed in an inn, quickly falling asleep.
