152 A mere curiosity

The buzzing sound of the moskeetos already invading their ears. The bug is the size of their palms already outside of its nest, waiting to attack. Henry put out the light right away. Thankfully, it was at the right time before the moskeetos became violent.

“What happened here? Someone please explained.” Henry was confused and demanded an explanation by whispering to everyone.

“You don’t have to whisper, the moskeeto can’t hear anything,” Anne answers his questions. She pointed at the nest, a large cocoon attached to the wall. “They have a very keen eye, though. Darla told me that they always attack people in broad daylight or people that use a light orb.”

“You should tell us about this beforehand.” Said Henry with gritted teeth, getting annoyed at Anne.

Doesn’t want to be blamed, Anne hissed at him and said, “Well, I thought all of you already knew. Besides, this is common knowledge nowadays, since the new variant of the moskeeto plaguing the capital.”

“So, what should we be doing right now? I don’t want to stay here longer.” Said Rafe, he was trying to adjust his eyes to the dim light of his surround, “The cave has some light, it was not enough to annoy the moskeetos in their nest, probably that’s why the first victim could go to the pool inside.”

Justice looks around and said his opinion on the matter, “Yes, he probably thought that he could get away by walking to the deep pocket of the darkness.”

“We should go inside. I need the sample of the water, and something else.” Anne look around at everyone. “I’ll go first.”

“No!” The three of them shouted at her at the same time.

“Alright, who will go first?”

Vale cast another spell, full protection, at Anne. He then raises his hand and said that he will be the one who steps inside the deeper part of the cave. Justice goes after him, while Henry asked Anne to be the third one.

“I’ll be the last one, just in case something happened to the last person.” He said to Anne.

Anne awkwardly nodded her head to Henry, never expecting that the knight captain could be this caring. “Errr… thank you.”

“Don’t mention it. I do this because it will be a hassle if something happens to you.” He straightforwardly says it in front of Anne.

Anne just took a deep breath and smile at him, “Still, thank you, Henry.”

She followed Justice, who was already waiting for her halfway. Henry walks not long after her. They walk carefully, with the moskeetos nest all over the wall. Anne felt a bit uncomfortable. They keep hearing the buzzing sound coming from the moskeetos. Getting close to them is not a good idea. The bite from moskeeto could give you moskeet fever, but Anne needs to be sure about something before she handed the chief healers her theory.

Vale had already arrived at the pool of pure water. He was mesmerized by how beautiful and clear the water was. When Anne, Justice, and Henry arrived, Vale already put his hand inside the water.

“What are you doing?” Anne asks Vale, who’s ready to drink from the pure water.

“I… I kind of tempted to drink it.”

Anne immediately slaps Vale’s hand, the pure water spilling from his hand. “Please don’t. Pure water is actually toxic for you. Do not drink the substance.” She took a glass vial from her bag and fill the vial with pure water. “I need to see the connection between the pure water and the vegetation surrounding the cave. Please help me search for any plants that you saw in every corner of the pool. I’ll give you a small straw bag, each.”

“Well, not me. I’m going to sit here, enjoying the view.” Said Justice, and true to his words, he sat and begin to put off his shoes.

“Don’t tell me you’re going to dip your feet inside the pure water?” Anne gave a disbelieving look towards Justice.

“Well, I wanted to dip all of my body, but you’re here. I don’t want you to file any indecent report.” Justice gave her a smirk that makes Anne let out a sigh and leave him alone.

Henry and Vale took the small straw bag and begin collecting the plants nearby. Anne was in the middle of putting some dirt and moss into the glass vial. Justice saw her concentrating on doing her own task. He always admires her tenacity, and how she was so dedicated as a healer.

“How’s your own world looks like?” Justice asked her something that he never thought he wanted to know about.

Looking in Justice’s direction, Anne tilted her head, confused by the sudden question, “That was uncalled for.”

Shrugging his shoulder, he gave Anne a warm smile and asked her again, “I don’t know. I was just wondering what kind of life that you had before… well, being thrown into our world.”

“My world? Probably you can say it was more advanced in technology than this world. We have various transportation, every comfort items that you can imagine… so many things.” Said Anne to Justice while her mind reminisce about her old world.

“Wow, seems like a good world.”

Shaking her head, she answered, “Not really, people there… anyhow, you have something that we don’t have.”

“What’s that?” Justice was intrigued.

“Magica, as you can see, I was lacking in magica because I came from another world.”

“Wait, you weren’t born here?!” Another voice asks Anne the question. Both of them turn around to see Vale, the one who was asking her.

“No, I thought all of you knew about this?” Said Anne with a frown on her face. She then stands up from the ground. “Anyhow, we are losing light. It’s best that we go back now.”

“We have everything? Right? Cause I hate to go back here.” Henry asked her while he handed her the full straw bag.

“Yes, this is enough. Let’s go now.”

They were prepared to go outside. Just after Justice put his shoes back, something concerning happened. The pool begins to light, a dazzling blue light coming from inside the pool.

“Gods! Run everyone!” Shouted Justice at all of them. Vale cast shield and full protection to every single one of them, including himself.

The cave gradually became brighter than before; the moskeetos were flying around, trying to bite all of them. Anne was screaming and felt a sigh of relief when she looks outside of the cave. Vale cast fire on the moskeetos, but surprisingly, the moskeeto’s body is fireproof.

“I couldn’t burn them?! Gods!” Vale shouted at everyone.

“Still, do something, the shield almost disperses now!” Henry shouted back at him, while he used his sword to slay some moskeetos.

“Look! We are almost there!” This time, it was Anne who shouted at them.

They rushed to get out of the cave, and after they saw the end of it, Vale cast another spell at the entrance of the cave, full protect spell sealed the entrance completely. They finally could let out a sigh of relief breath afterward. After they descended from the cliff, they were in the middle of walking to their horses.

“Wow! That was intense!” Henry excitingly shouted at them.

“Just calm down, Henry. We almost got bitten by a plague bearer.” Anne was already exhausted, not to mention she felt dizzy and had a hard time walking. She tried to walk slower.

Henry turned around trying to scold Anne, “What’s gotten into you…” he stopped and screamed her name, “Anne!”

Justice and Vale abruptly stop. They saw Anne lose her balance and fall to the ground in their very eyes.
