Chapter 2 - II: The Mystery Arc II

Everyone struggling to understand it very well, but their intuition seems to telling them that they already know it.

Then Roy spoke.

'So basically there's something that even humans didn't or couldn't understand neither understand it by describing it using specific words that exist in dictionary am I right?'

Karl nodded as the meaning of true, Karl spoke again.

'Trying understanding something is easy for humans, but understanding how nothing is nothingness itself. That's the hard part for humans to understand it really well.'

All of them thought to themselves.

'Damn that's a nice one'

Then one of them look at the time and realize that they're late to school, so they quickly grabbed their school bag and walk out to wear their shoes. They quickly press the elevator button and went inside, they quickly press button 0=G (below 1 which is no floors because it is where people's walk into the apartment to went upwards).

But when they press button G, the screen that shows numbers seems going from four to seven. Suddenly it brought them to floors nineth, as the doors opened. They quickly walk out and sees why they on the higher floors and not below.

Suddenly Jayden spoke to all of them.

'Guys...'

Jayden words was stuttering as if he was shocked to see what he witnessing right before his eyes, Jayden points out his finger on something.

All of them moves their heads to see what did Jayden just see, suddenly all of them was stunned on their place. They stood still as if they saw a ghost.

Turns out, what they see is actually the exact description of what Karl just told them about.

One of them then spoke.

'Karl...you...you do telling the truth...'

Then Karl walks towards the figure that stood still a little far from them, Kale spoke up to it.

'Hey, who are you and why you've been standing there for so long.'

The figure remain silent, then Karl friends spoke to him to not talk to it because who knows, it might bring curse any harm they all.

Suddenly a strong wind blast towards all of them causing them to not be able to see anything as their hair distracted their sight, in the blink second. The figure heading towards Karl in an astonishingly speed that's faster than air itself.

Luckily, Karl managed to blocked the attack that were sent by the tall pale white figure. Karl both hands were in pain yet he remain unfazed, then the figure spoke to Karl.

'Who are you...Human.'

But Karl couldn't understand what the figure spoke, but he can read from the figure body language that it says, who are you human. Karl response back saying.

'I am Karl Altziltuh, and you must be a ghost or somekind of another creature that so abstract am I right.'

The figure then replies back saying.

'Pathetic, I am no a ghost. But I'm a Jin. I exist on the higher dimension that has no law neither concepts as we the one that manipulates it at will.'

'I am the layer 0 abstraction core of principle conceptual state of realm, there are much more layers as it was infinite. The more higher the layer are, the more powerful we are. We exist and we never die as we have lack of physical body and soul.'

Karl replies back saying to the Jin.

'Understandable, but I only want to know one thing. Do a beings like you have a name or anything.'

The Jin think for a second, then it spoke to Karl.

'My name is Un-Tablikin Oniel-Al Bakazahr.'

Karl analyzed the Jin body language and its micro-expressions, then Karl spoke.

'You lied don't you.'

'Why would you lie about your name when there's nothing bad will happen if you told me what's your name.'

The Jin shocked but he quickly hid his expression, then the Jin spoke.

'How did you kno– Well I guess I would just have to tell you then, my real name is Auz-Kielnuith.'

Karl nodded as he finally know its name, then Karl spoke again.

'I want to know just one thing, why you brought us to this level when we supposed to go to below (0) instead of above (9).'

Then Auz-Kielnuith chuckle as he suddenly smiles menacingly, just like a psychopathic person that's full of sinister past.

In just a blink second Auz-Kielnuith was behind Karl and he launch an attack that's hundreds times faster than sound itself, but Karl already predicted he would tried to punched him right at the stomach. So Karl blocked the attack but even though he successfully blocked it. He still felt the pain over his arms.

Auz-Kielnuith stares at Karl disbelief in what he just saw, Auz-Kielnuith spoke towards Karl in a shocking expression.

'How can a mere mortal, yet a human like you could know where I would punch you?'

'Let alone at the high speed that is quicker than sound more than hundreds of times, how could a human like you pulled off something astonishingly like that?'

Karl stares at Auz-Kielnuith then he took out a tarot cards and threw it to the air, Auz-Kielnuith took a glances at the tarot cards that is flying at air.

In a sudden, Auz-Kielnuith was attacked by a metal-chain that are 4 meter long. Unexpectedly, it turns out that Karl has planned Auz-Kielnuith eaxct place of where he would stand. Karl already plan this whole thing from having a conversation with him and misdirect it to stare at the tarot cards.

In that moment, Auz-Kielnuith was hit by the metal-chain and was sent flying to the walls. Without wasting more time, he quickly sprinting towards him and keep attacking him. But out of sudden, Auz-Kielnuith begin to laughed. In that instant Karl was blow away by a strong unknown force that cause Karl to hurt externally and sent flying backwards.

Karl landed safely but his body didn't, Karl close his eyes and think of something. In that moment, Auz-Kielnuith sprint towards Karl in an insane speed. It was not only quicker than sound itself but way faster than the speed of light.

He grabbed Karl neck and lifted him up and throw him five meters away from where he standing earlier, Karl hit the walls hardly but he refuse to give up. He try to stood still, but he failed. Then Auz-Kielnuith walked towards him and glancing into his eyes like a predator about to eat his preys.

Karl beg for mercy as he spoke he will be giving his soul to him and make him more intelligent and stronger just by absorbing his souls, Auz-Kielnuith think for a moment about the offer. Then spoke.

'Is there a catch human?'

Karl spoke to him as he says back.

'No...no there isn't a catch, I would not because I'm not evil like you. And because I'm not a devil that tricked someone into making a deal with them.'

'If you don't trust me why don't you read my mind huh? Go check my mindscapes and see everything inside it.'

Auz-Kielnuith did not hesitate to read his mind, he checked through Karl mindscapes as he floating in the vastness of knowledge that helds by Karl. Karl from the outside smirk as he thought to himself.

'He does not know I would trick him into making a deal with me which before that I would say three rule right before he take my soul.'

But what Karl didn't know is that, Auz-Kielnuith could hear Karl thoughts. Then Auz-Kielnuith grabbed his neck and pressed it just hard enough to make Karl unable to take a breath.

Auz-Kielnuith stares at Karl as he spoke.

'Tell me, what is your plan. What is the three rules that you sure you would be able to defeat me.'.

Karl spoke calmly to Auz-Kielnuith as he replies back saying.

'Why don't you read my mind if you can read it idiot.'

Auz-Kielnuith press Karl neck a little harder as he responds back saying.

'Trying to get yourself kill huh? Well once I read it and make a contract of souls with you. I would make sure to eat your body and make everyone that you ever know never have any memory of being with you as if you never exist.'

In an instant Auz-Kielnuith reads Karl entire minds, deeper and deeper until Auz-Kielnuith has reached the part of Karl minds that's seems to be a some sort of a large gate that were sealed. Auz-Kielnuith destroy the chain and open the gate and went inside it, in there it shows something that Auz-Kielnuith did not expected. It was empty, all nothingness. But there is a sounds that is unclear that make him stressing.

Auz-Kielnuith couldn't help but felt an urge to destroy this part of mind of Karl, but suddenly the place become something that Auz-Kielnuith would he regrets for looking into this part of Karl's mind. Suddenly everything looked like hell, an image of countless lives sufferings constantly. Auz-Kielnuith look himself as his appearance become like a human, Auz-Kielnuith thought to himself.

'What the hell is this?!'

Auz-Kielnuith stares at his both hands in disbelief, then he tries to get out from Karl's mind but he failed. Suddenly the place seems to be eaten by the void and everyone disappeared as if they was erased from existences. Auz-Kielnuith running for his life to survive from dying, he keep running as he cries.

'No! No! I do not want to die like this not in human body!!'

In an instant Auz-Kielnuith was erase there with the world, turn back to the current situation of where Karl was. Karl stood Infront of Auz-Kielnuith dead body laying on the floor unmoved. Karl chuckle a little as he spoke.

'All according as I planned.'
