After a while talking about the soul shifter , master park assigned seo-yul and dang-gu to keep an eye on cheonbugwan and after everyone left except the girl and the two Masters ,the two sighed as they looked at her and started to walk towards a wall confusing her, master park used a spell on the wall which she couldn't quite get that made Na-ra confused until the wall starts to change into like a door .

Master park steps inside beside

Master Heo as they look back to Na-ra to come in, Na-ra staggers with a surprise as she steps in.she have never seen that room before, but the view inside the room would be more shocking for her.

In the ice table there was a corpse .. A corpse of someone the firebird- no, she killed with her own hands. Na-ra steps back a little as a wave of panic goes through her.

She remember it all too well by these days, all morning the same nightmare she waked up from,The way she killed all those people with a second, the way she killed that woman with her own hands....

Even if it's been days she still felt those ropes that tightened around her arm while the blood drops staining her cloth, her palm could still feel the lady's throat chocking until her last breath took out.

Na-ra looked down to her hands as the tears pooled in her eyes trying get out but she was too well aware of the surroundings trying hard not to see weak......,Pathetic.

" We checked on to these people... They aren't exactly unknown, for decades they have been worshiping the... Firebird. While some people wants to destroy the Firebird because of it's power, some wanted to find it... Because of it's power-"

" Then what about us?.... "

Na-ra questioned with calmness through her words as she interrupt park jin who just sighs at her question.

" Knowing our power hungered people.... Mostly to control it... "

Park jin answers only to get a silent answer from the girl staring at the lifeless body , to be exact to her neck where there were burned fingerprints are still seen.

" Do you think..... I probably killed all those people that worshipped it.... "

Na-ra again questioned but when it look from a side it wasn't really a question, but more of a confirmation and the two masters silence answered her very well enough.

" Na-ra-ah, it's not your-"

" Fault. I know it's not. "

Na-ra answered Master Heo cutting him off already knowing what he was about to say, I mean all these days they have been telling her that, however it was no use. Knowing how much people she could kill without feeling remorseful at the moment was fear for her, the fear that much of swallow her whole and it was scary, scary that if the thing inside of her comes out she may even hurt own people.

" I have an doubt, why didn't the sapsali came to me that day?? Even though it was sealed inside me couldn't the sapsali detect it?.. "

" That's because sapsali is something detect evil energy.. Even if firebird's power is Forbidden it's just as the pure as the energy of the sky... "

" Then why do people need to destroy it ..... "

That question came from the girl made was shock to the two Masters not knowing how to answer . She was right however what made them more conscious was the girl who questioned it, they thought the firebird is already affecting to her mind cause Na-ra was never the child to question it but nonetheless what they didn't know was that, this was Na-ra, the one who have the need to know every side of everything and it would be a lie if she said it terrified herself.

The girl who perfectly lived herself in the eyes of others, the girl who perfectly carried herself in the eyes of others is no more and it terrified her to the core not knowing the future when she did before few days, before everything. But this feeling of this life, a life she is living and not just existing felt more good than she wanted to and that was something that made her wish to live not to exist.

" I've heard you already finished your reciting the book of virtues and Prohibitions of mages. "

Master park tries to make a conversation while the three walks out from the room.

" Yes, it wasn't too hard to memorize it all since SOMEONE has been giving me books to read all my life until now. "

" So what?? Now look, you can go to visit your brother all you want!! "

Master Heo replies little offended until Na-ra halts in her steps and so do the other two imitating the girl.

"... I... Can leave to see uk?... "

" Since you already finished the basic training... Yes you can. "

" Why did I even sneaked out?? "

Na-ra whispered under her breath feeling really idiotic for sneaking out and causing the trouble when she could have waited for one day.

" What??"

Master park asks as he couldn't make out what she said however Na-ra just smiled so wide her mouth could rip out as she ran to the two for a hug and the two were surprised for the sudden reaction of the girl however after a second the two just patted on her shoulder with a smile.

" THANK YOU! YOU TWO!!! "

The girl broke out the hug as she ran from there happily .

" YOU CAN ONLY GO TOMORROW MORNING IT'S TOO LATE TO GO OUT! "

Master Heo shouted loudly so she could hear while running away from them as master park just scoff .

" Of course she knows that, she isn't a kid! "

" She will be a kid to me always.... So for you ! So Stop playing like a cold master!! ....now,is there some wine in your room? "

" As if ! I do not always drink-"

" Then there is something left in your room. "

" NO! THERE ISN'T!! "

.....

" We are visiting uk because we are his friends and to Na-ra it's her brother, but why are you here?? "

Dang-gu questioned confused to the particular jin girl as she just clear her throat.

" I just happened to run into you guys, and I had something to nitpick him about. That is why. "

The girl answers with such a grace however even a idiot ( apart from dang-gu) could tell it was certainly not to just nitpick but Na-ra just shrugs at her answer for the jin girl's one sided love . Anyone can judge the Lovestrucked girl but never Na-ra since she was a fool in it too.

Na-ra set her eyes on the water under the craft she was on, not noticing the conversation her friends were having, it felt....stoic..... Her head was full but no thoughts at all at the same time.she kept staring at her own wavering reflection on the water until a tightened feeling was built in her chest, a sudden feeling that made her clench her fist closer to her heart as she gasped for air.

" Na-ra, You okay?!?? What is it??!! "

" Na-ra!!?? "

" what's happening?!?! "

Of course at the sudden reaction of the girl shocked the friends and everyone , however all Na-ra could hear was their muffled sound and her own breathing which she struggled to keep up however rather at the next second it disappeared, all the pain she felt just a second ago disappeared into the thin air almost confusing her was there really a pain? She steadied her own breathing into normal as a relief somehow took over.

" What just happened??!! "

Park dang-gu asked frantically, who was still shocked at the sudden condition the girl had as Na-ra glance to everyone's face which is visible of worry.

"Oh? No, no, it's nothing. I'm just overwhelmed these days that's all. "

The girl instantly cooked up a lie that suddenly came into her mind with a reassuring smile .

" How is that nothing?"

Na-ra blinked at the sudden question that came from seo-yul who was sitting beside dang-gu, with a harsh tone than he ever did.

" No, it was really noth-"

" You just looked like you were out of breath right now... Is that nothing? "

" It's just-"

The girl tries to pry him off from the situation however seo-yul again cut her off.

" Let's go to Sejukwon. "

" What?! No-"

" Na-ra , I agree with yul. It's better we go to sejukwon right now .. We can visit uk later. "

This time it was dang-gu who didn't let her finish her sentence and before she could speak again cho-yeon seconds dang-gu.

" I agree with him too. "

" CAN YOU THREE JUST HEAR ME OUT?!! I'M OKAY, ALRIGHT??. "

The girl bursted out in frustration since she couldn't finish her sentence, like ever , it was sweet and heartwarming to see your friends caring for you and all but at this moment if they know what's the cause of what just happened it would all go down, Na-ra knew that clear.

" I'm sorry - but I have to see uk, then I will visit sejukwon. I promise. "

The girl desperately looked at the three as they all nodded except for seo-yul who rather had a frown on his temple.

Na-ra sighed to herself as she glanced back into the water. It would be a lie if she say what just happened didn't scared her to the core, of course it scared that she thought she might die before she couldn't even meet her brother once more, meet kim do-joo who always looked after her like her own mother , her two Master's who protected like their own child, her young-hee who haven't fought with her for the past twenty four hour which infact she missed and her friends who cared for her like nothing else mattered, and the man sitting in front of her with worry lacing through his eyes atleast for once she wished at that moment he saw her more than a friend...And of all means she haven't even lived yet so yes it did scared her.

" I just want to make sure that my idiotic twin didn't falled into more troubles.... "

Na-ra muttered to herself as she still stared at her own reflection however what she didn't know at that moment was her twin infact was in a trouble which lead into more troubles.....
