Seal of Light - Enlightened

Chapter 24: XXXIII Hello Strangers

Lily smiled as she heard the fading sound of a vehicle that was moving away from her location.

The man who was trying to stop Lily's sister awhile ago started to run to the same path where the car

went.

He has no plan on stopping or confronting the girl in front of him, his objective was to get back the

young boy taken by the other girl earlier.

The man bumped Lily on her shoulder as he move pass her, but he suddenly halted without him

noticing that Lily took a strong grip on his arm.

Lily's necklace suddenly lit up to a wild glow. A japanese character (read as Hikari) appeared and

glowed on her nape. She seems to be not surprised to what happened.

Her eyes glowed from within, and so does her hands, illuminating her iris and every vein in her palm,

the light grew intensely. Lily made a stronger grip on the man's arm.

The man fell to his knees in pain, he was screaming violently.

He glanced over her and spoke on a very eerie voice, "So you finally learned how to use your seal on

the human realm, but are you aware that it is only limited to half of it's power, and it can be used on a

very limited time..."

Just before the man finish talking, Lily pressed harder on the man's arm, causing his body to fall on the

ground, shrieking in pain.

"Human bodies are really weak, same would be said for the soul. But I don't have a choice but to fit in

here until our physical demon bodies can step on the human realm."

A huge mass of black smoke came out of the man's mouth. His body was shivering until the very last

part of the smoke was out.

"I remembered, I don't need a physical body to get the boy's soul." The voice was coming from the

black smoke that was now floating above Lily.

The black smoke suddenly flew to the direction where the car went.

"On no!" Lily said as she released the arm of the unconscious man and rushed to follow the black

smoke.

Lily made a quick leap, giving her an instant seven meter leap in an instant, she resumed running and

waiting for her next charge for another quick leap, she was not too far from the tail of the black smoke.

A few seconds more and the black smoke was able to close the gap from the rushing car that was

boarded by Rain and the young boy.

The distance between them closed rapidly as Lily made another next quick leap.

Lily caught the black smoke with her glowing hand, and before the smoke could escape, Lily had

grabbed hold of it with two hands so that they were hurtling through the air. The smoke tried to shake

Lily off, but Lily, with her whole body almost lit with this light that was coming from within her, just

wrapped her whole body around the smoke.

John, who was driving the car, already noticed what was happening behind them, He couldn't believe

what he just saw.

"Just keep driving sir, we need to lose them," Rain worriedly said.

John pressed harder on the acceleration, giving the car an extra boost of speed. But he couldn't keep

himself from looking what was happening behind. He knew it was Lily who was battling that smoke

thing that was flying and following them." Content from NôvelDr(a)ma.Org.

A spear shape object was formed from the smoke and suddenly it pierced thru Lily's left shoulder. Lily

kept hold, but the second piercing slightly cut her right hand, and left her tumbling behind.

The black smoke doubled it speed as it reached the speeding car. A hand-like shape extended from the

end of the smoke reaching for the rear of the car.

Suddenly, someone slammed hard against the black smoke, giving the car an easy get away as it

makes a sharp turn to the next crossing.

The chase was cut short. The black smoke made a human like figure, beneath it was a smaller version

of black smoke whirling around the new form figure.

The stranger who helped Lily was still unrevealed. He was standing a few feet away from the smoke

that just turned into a human figure. He unleashed a ki-blade from his clenched fist. It extended half

meter long torching from his knuckles.

The humanoid made a move, but the new guy quick leap in front of it and created several slashes

within two seconds.

"This is just the beginning Seth, you cannot stop what is destined to happen to the new carriers..." The

humanoid whispered as it turned back to smoke while fading slowly into thin air.

Lily appeared far behind as soon as the smoke completely vanished. She was walking slowly with her

other hand pressing to her wound on her shoulder. The stranger who was named Seth rushed to her

aid.

Lily fell unconscious on the ground as Seth approached her.
