Chapter 12
"Atsit, come take a seat", the Lord of Lyonaz asked her. She complied and took a seat before him. Ares joined her.
" You have many unanswered questions at present. Feel free to clear your doubts"
There were so many questions. Will he really answer them? But what should she begin the conversation with? Hi, h.e.l.lo.... No, she should speak formally. After all he was something akin to a king.
"My greetings to the Lord of Lyonaz! Yes, there are indeed many things I would like to know about. "
"No need to be so formal. I'm a Lord not a King. And this isn't monarchy. We are more of a democracy", he cut her speech short.
" Really? " she sighed in relief. It would have been a pain in the a.s.s if she had to speak such formal languages. Gos.h.!.+
"Ok. So first how did I come to this place? I was sleeping in my little room. How did I end up here? And what is this place? I mean is it inside earth?" she asked.
The Lord was looking at her bemusedly. The beautiful woman beside him now spoke.
"Hi Atsit. I am Sophia, the Lady and wife of the Lord of Lyonaz"
So that's why! They looked so much like couples.
"You probably came here by the means of teleportation. Either someone else teleported you here or you did it yourself."
"But how can I teleport myself? Is it possible?"
she interrupted the beautiful lady's words.
She smiled. "Only an Avyu can teleport on his or her own without a.s.sistance. Everyone else needs some kind of device. You are an Avyu. So you do have the capability. "
"What is an Avyu? And how are you so certain that I am one" she interrupted again.
"You see that
"That mark? But I didn't have it before coming here" she clarified.
"The mark appears only after being awakened. Only a fully awakened Avyu can teleport itself. So if what you say is true, then you have teleported for the first time."
Wow! This was new information. She looked around to see everyone looking at her.
"So am I not a human? Wait! If I am an Avyu then even my parents and sister are Avyu. So won't they teleport here. "
Will they all teleport here. It would be wonderful. After all this place was far better than earth. And will her father teleport here too? Can the Avyu teleport themselves back from death?
"Probably.We are still uncertain about your origins. So we can't comment on that. But that is a possibility" Ares replied.
Great! G.o.d please make this possible!
"But why did I teleport here? What is this place? "
"This place is in a distant stellar system from earth. It would take your earth people over 2.5 billion light years to reach us if they could. But we can easily travel to your place with teleportation. You see, we are far more advanced than humans. The theorems that human scientists are discovering today is known to any toddler of ours" the Lord replied confidently.
She was dazed by this revelation.
"But we are still not that advanced. We still don't know many things in this universe. Like how can an Avyu teleport without any aid. The Avyu's are far more advanced than us" the Lord smiled at her.
This was where they were wrong. She was the weakest in Science and Math. How could she be an Avyu and give them mathematical formulae to teleport.
"But I don't know anything. I don't even know earth math properly. How can I know all that? "
"You still haven't fully awakened. That is why you don't know. But when you do, you will possess a higher knowledge. "
Okay. That seems like the least possibility. She looked around to see if this was some sort of joke. But everything was pretty normal.
Were they bluffing with her?
"If what you say is true and I really am some sort of intellectual being, then why did that mad looking guy a.s.sault me? Why did you imprison me? "she concluded.
" Not every Avyu is good. One such Avyu is a highly wanted criminal. She has threatened us with dire consequences if we do not yield to her wishes. Not only that she has caused destruction and havoc in our otherwise peaceful place. At first, some of us thought you were her. But now we are certain by knowing some things which can not be specified to you at present, that you are not her. " Ares answered. He continued, "Also we apologize to you about Lares' treatment of you. You see, he is a bit defiant and does things his way. And none of us present at your capture were able to defy his orders as he is our superior. But now that the Lord has decreed you special status as a guest he can do nothing. "
That was a relief! She didn't want to see that madman again.
