‘Hey hey hey, this person is big trouble, whatever you do don’t let go of me. You’re going to have to fight using my powers and not your own.’ The black sword said, sending a message directly into Layla’s mind.
Maybe it was the multiple dark eyes, or the way the strange ears on the figure looked like horns curling inwards, or just the whole aura surrounding the person, there was such confidence and not a hint of fear in them.
Finally, Mundus stopped where he was, and Yongbu stood back, not getting close to the situation.
“Although what he does or has done is none of my business, right now all I want to know is where Quinn is, and how he managed to escape.”
“Quinn isn’t here!” Layla shouted. “We don’t know where he went, he took a ship and left.”
‘Tell me, who is this person, why would they be after Quinn, and why should we be so worried?’ Layla asked.
‘This person is one of the most powerful people I have ever met, and trust me when I say this I have met some powerful people… I think. His power… it’s to do with time, just as long as you hold onto me, it won’t affect you, and if you can, do whatever you can to not get in a fight with this person.’
The power of time, Layla didn’t quite understand what that meant, and she would have loved to ask more questions, but it looked like she wasn’t able to.
“When Quinn returns, Yongbu will report back to me and I will have my meeting with him then.”
However, taking the words of the sword, she thought it was the best they could get out of the current situation.
“I thought you all had the same celestial energy given to you by Quinn. There is an energy that feels familiar, but it’s not quite the same… were you trying to hide from me?” Mundus asked and started to walk forward once again.
“Stay away from him!” Layla shouted at the top of her lungs. “Stay away from my child!”
“Dad told me that I have to protect the family. I will protect Galen!” Minny shouted, as she jumped from her spot and ran across the ice, jumping forward right at Mundus’ face.
It seemed at that point, that everything had stopped. Was it her mind playing tricks on her, was this what happened when one was over worried, when they wished to do everything they could to save their loved one.
“The… power of time.” Layla mumbled.
“That sword is interesting, not that it matters much anyway. The child can not run away like this, and what about you, do you plan to stop me?” Mundus asked.
‘I can give you power, but I’m not sure I can give you enough power to defeat this person. Even if his ability doesn’t work, he is still strong!’ The sword warned.
However, the power was still too strong for her body to hold, and she could feel that if she kept up this form for long it would tear her body apart, but as the sword said, it was the only way for her to fight without being affected by the ability.
“Although you are not affected by time, everything else is, including myself.” Mundus was suddenly behind her. She could barely see it, he was moving but it was a blur. A speed that was similar, or perhaps surpassed when Quinn used his nitro accelerate.
“He just touched me… how did he hit me so hard.” Layla thought and blood started to spill from her mouth. She felt so powerful in this form, yet in front of this being, it meant almost nothing.
Mundus continued to walk, as if the whole world, the whole universe revolved around him, and reached out his hand, straight toward little Galen.
