Chapter 11: He’s my soulmate!~


    David


    —–


    ‘SPLASH!’


    I immediately turned to where Leon was when suddenly a bright red light shed from the magic book Leon was holding.


    I could see a slow movement as the bright red sh of light burst out when Leon opened the Grimoire I had given him earlier.


    I quickly got up from my seat and headed towards Leon; I held his trembling body on the floor when he fell during the sh of light.


    “Leon, Are you all right?” I asked him worriedly while panicking because this was the first time I’d seen such a rare urrence.


    .....


    But he did not answer all my questions; I immediately carried his body and took him to my room. I don’t know what to do because this is the first thing that happens in my house when I bring guests.


    I put Leon’s limp body on my bed, “Leon! Wake up!” I said softly as I gently patted Leon’s cheek, hoping to wake him up.


    Because after the sh of red light earlier, Leon didn’t say a word at all, and when I tried to check his temperature, I was surprised because his whole body was so cold.


    “Leon, Your body is so cold!” I said, panicking.


    “Dad, Dad!” I screamed as loud as I could to call my father because I didn’t know what to do with Leon’s deteriorating condition.


    Several times I called Dad for help, but it felt like Dad wasn’t home. And I just remembered that my father was out of the house. Damn it!


    I reached into the cell phone in my pants pocket and immediately called my father.


    [Call connected]


    [Hello, what’s up David? I’m ordering food for dinner tonight!]


    “Dad, go home now! something has happened to Leon; I can’t exin it; what is clear is that you must go home soon!” I said so panicked and immediately hung up the phone.


    I put my cell phone on the table near my bed; then I focused back on Leon, who was limp and didn’t move. What should I do, did something bad happen to him?


    Shortly after I called my father, I heard from the porch that Dad’s car had been, and I heard the sound of fast footsteps running towards my room.


    “Dad!”


    “What happened?” My father asked as he drew closer to where Leon was.


    “The two of us were in the library, and I identally gave him a Grimoire book to read, but I was surprised when Leon opened the Grimoire. Suddenly a sh of red light burst out from the book. And Leon immediately lost consciousness!” I say, trying to exin to Dad.


    My father was silent. While trying to check Leon’s condition, he shook his head, looking at me with a pitiful look.


    “How’s Dad? What should we do?” I asked my father frantically when he finished checking on Leon.


    “I didn’t think Leon was not a mortal in general because he has something precious inside of him. I don’t know for sure what is inside him, which makes magic-like thirst to be absorbed by Leon’s body.” My father said, exining as he approached me.


    “Huh? What does that mean?” I asked, confused.


    “Quickly grab the Grimoire that Leon held earlier!” Said Dad and asked me to take the book.


    Immediately I ran towards the library to pick up the book that Leon had previously opened.


    After arriving at the library, I looked around to find the book’s whereabouts; I remember very well that Leon threw the red book into the corner of the shelf.


    “Where’s the book?” I muttered While crouching down, trying to find out where the book was.


    When I was looking for the book, my eyes suddenly stopped when I saw a red lighting out of the book’s cover in the corner of the shelf.


    “There he is!” I said excitedly when I found the book.


    “Is it okay if I hold it?”


    But not long after I mumbled those words, suddenly, the red light on the book’s cover went out instantly. And that very second, the book was immediately closed again so tightly.


    I widened my eyes and took a few steps back when I saw the book move by itself, but because this situation was so urgent, I immediately took the book to my room without further ado.


    “Dad, here’s the book!” I said to Dad while giving him a red-bound Grimoire.


    When I gave Dad Grimoire, Dad’s eyes suddenly widened. “How did you get this book?” My father asked confusedly while looking carefully at the book he was holding.


    “The book is on the shelf. As usual, I just got the book for Leon to read.” I replied, confused while scratching my head when Dad said so.


    “No way, this book couldn’t have appeared suddenly if there wasn’t something that might have happened. You know this book has been missing for 20 years And suddenly reappeared when you took Leon to the library. This must have something to do with this man!” My father said while looking in the direction where Leon was.


    Of course, that made me pause because what Dad said seemed like something impossible would happen.


    I didn’t retort or ask when Dad said that, but after that, Dad suddenly came closer to where Leon was and ced the Grimoire on Leon’s forehead.


    “Father, what are you doing?” I asked, panicked when Dad suddenly ced the magic book on Leon’s forehead.


    “Ssusshhttt, don’t disturb me first!” My father said while gesturing that I should not interfere with whatever my father was doing.


    That’s when I stepped back away from the two of them. And not long after, suddenly, a red light appeared so bright from Leon’s forehead and the book.


    The bright red light suddenly seemed to envelop Leon’s entire body, and as if a red light was emitting from between Leon’s forehead and the book, the light was entwined like a shawl currently enveloping Leon’s body.


    “What happened?” I asked my father in a t tone.


    My father slowly stepped backward and approached me.


    “We have found the person; He is the soul mate you have been looking for; I can smell the sweet fragrance of his body that suits you so well. You must guard him with all your heart because no one but Him can undo your curse!” Said my father while looking at me with a deep gaze.
