2020-09-15 21:39:29One year after the tragedy of Mrs. Durbysch's murder, the family left behind went from their burning home. They moved only a few miles away; feel unable to leave the memories far away.
But little Quan still bothered. Memories of the killers she massacred still clearly printed in her mind. That's why Mr. Durbysch invited his family to move again; this time out of town.
However, the move was only the beginning of another bad thing for Quan again.
It was afternoon. Everyone is in their homes, waiting for a total solar eclipse that will soon happen. The Durbysch family was no exception, also in their homes. They gather in the living room.
“Why don't we try and see it?” At that time Quan had a chance to ask.
Mr. Durbysch smiled as he looked at his daughter with a gaze. Quan' brothers looks so focused on the book they read in the corner of the room.
“We can't see the eclipse directly, honey.” Mr. Durbysch told Quan patiently. “Our eyes can be damaged.”
Quan ran to the window to see something, then a few seconds later returned to her father's side.
“Look, our neighbors are seeing an eclipse too!” Quan whined. “They carry a tub of water and wear strange glasses.”
Suddenly Gan approached and sat in one of the other chairs. He put the book he had read on the table.
“They are just brave, little sister.” Gan said softly. "Long ago, someone saw a solar eclipse directly, and you know what happened after that?”
Quan shook her head.
“They are blind!” Evan suddenly shouted from behind.
Gan rebuking Evan loudly. He looked back at the surprised Quan. “That person is not necessarily blind … well, some are blind too. But the person I was referring to only got an acute eye pain. You can say he can no longer see properly.”
Quan shuddered. “That's terrible. I've experienced it too.”
The three adults in the room looked at Quan with an unusual surprise.
“When did that happen, baby?” Mr. Durbysch whispered worried.
At that moment Quan's body trembled. She almost cried as she whispered, “B-Before I kill them.”
Have not had time to feel the shock again, suddenly the sky widened. Evan muttered something about an eclipse that had already begun. But that was not the only thing that happened.
Their neighbors suddenly shouted at each other. Their screams were like the inevitable horror. Mr. Durbysch ran to the window, and he saw something that made him freeze.
Quan screamed.
The black robed herd has returned.
They turned their heads when they heard the scream of Quan who was frightened. One of them waved, and his friends followed the man toward Durbysch's house.
Mr. Durbysch cried frantically at his two sons so that they immediately ran away with Quan. But the door suddenly burst open so loudly. Black-robed herds marched in.
Quan trembled behind Gan's back. There is something different about this herd. She is still trying to remember what was forgotten.
“Give us the child.” One of the robed men opened his voice from under his blue mask.
Quan suddenly realized what made them different. People who killed their mothers; their eyes and masks are white in blue. But this herd … their eyes and mask are blue.
Or was Quan just mistaken?
“What is wrong with my daughter?!” Mr. Durbysch snapped. “I don't even know who bastards like you are!”
The man chuckled. “You didn't know? Really Adan? That's a little weird considering you're a husband of Vocaship's right hand man.”
Quan wasn't sure how her father would react, but suddenly chaos ruined the atmosphere.
Quan was pushed back until she was thrown against the wall. The girl watched her family against the enemies who carried the Sword of the Stake.
Mr. Durbysch suddenly shouted; black blood pooled on the floor. He fell there, with horrified eyes as he looked at Quan.
“Go!” Quan's father cried for the last time to his daughter.
Quan roared to call her father, but she didn't dare approach. Evan suddenly picked up his sister, then he ran away.
“Papa!” Quan shouted sadly.
“Shut up, Quan! Here.”
Evan dropped Quan off the edge of the forest, then crouched in front of her. Evan turned his head as several of the robed men came out to chase after them.
“Listen, Quan. Look, don't cry! Just run. You got it? Run as far as you can!”
Quan shook her head. “Where should I go? How's Papa?”
Evan pointed to the edge of the city. He pressed Quan's shoulder and said hurriedly.
“Papa will be fine. You have to run, go out of the city gate! After that you will find a small cottage not far from there. Tell the grandmother that Lor is attacking us!”
Quan begging. “Ev—”
“Run!”
Quan ran as fast as she could. Only a few meters later, the girl suddenly heard a scream of pain. She turned her head.
“Ev!” Quan screamed. Tears fell to her cheeks.
The little girl almost returned to Evan, but the man in black actually ran to her.
Quan did the only thing she could do at that moment.
The girl ran away.
The eclipse is over, but Quan's life is not yet. After running away hiding many times, that night she finally met the grandmother who was chewing betel. The grandmother immediately packed her belongings and carried Quan onto her back, then ran into the forest.
Quan doesn't live in a strange place or the forest itself.
Quan returned to the city where her mother had died.

A few moments later Mr. Kei continued the story, very sure that Quan saw the teacher deliberately staring at her and the other Black disciples.After taking blood oaths, the first Red Group called in the spirits, Mr. Kei said, for many nights. On the seventh night, the first spirit in the form of a black wolf appears, then the second, third, and so on until the number is equal to the summoners.The first Red Group hummed sad songs and lamentations of despair, and their requests before the spirits. Then, the wolf spirits granted it by way of tapping some of their essence into the Red People.The person who was possessed fell unconscious until dawn, and woke up in a state already a wolf demon.“The following night the second Red Group, did as the first did in different places. But the spirits answered them faster, on the third night. This time the spirits that came were golden lions. The same procession took place, and the majestic lion demon was crea

Mr. Kei paused and let his students accept the words before continuing.“It is said that the origin of the three colors other than black is the Red Nation. Do you know what era I mean?”The children answered in unison, “Era of Red Blood.”“Yes, of course.” Mr. Kei agreed, then continued. “And in that one millennium, they created history by preserving the curse, and in the end destroying the Red Nations themselves.”“You mean to say that the White, Silver and Blue People are the result of a curse?” Exan interrupted sharply.Mr. Kei smiled and shook his head slowly.“Our ancestors who were originally Red People did get a curse,” explained the teacher straightforwardly. “But we are not meant to be born only to bear the title of curse. Our life is a gift, even though it starts with mistakes that shouldn't be done. It's not our fault, it's nobody's fault.”

That sentence silenced the excitement of the students. Quan lost her smile that was only slightly. The other students looked at Mr. Kei with an incomprehensible look.“So.” Mr. Kei decided. “Does anyone know where the error is?”Many students try to find answers in the thick books they have, and some of them just look at each other and shake their heads.“Yoan?” Mr. Kei called a first-rate boy in the class.It feels shocking when a smart student you know says "don't know" when asked by a teacher, but this time it was even more shocking because no one needed to be surprised when Yoan answered, "Don't know, sir," quietly.“Lein?” Mr. Kei asked again.The fifth-ranked girl just shook her head a little guilty, and Mr. Kei welcomed her with a smile.Mr. Kei's gaze was searching, and stopped at Quan who was just silent and instead stared back with unreadable views.“Quan?”

Quan came out of her reverie when the bell rang twice. Mrs. Hilda left the room, and a few moments later another teacher entered the second grade.Mr. Kei is a personable and humorous-faced figure, but even so he remains firm. Quan likes this one teacher because of his lesson: Dark History.Dark History is not always as dark as its name, but other students still like it because it is quite interesting. Sometimes the lessons learned are not always in public books outside of school.When the lesson began, Mr. Kei wrote Blood & Secrets on the blackboard, and first discussed the last week's lesson for a few minutes as usual.“What causes us to be called White, Silver, and Black?” Mr. Kei asked the dozens of students in front of him in a loud voice, after discussing the previous material.The class suddenly rumbles when all students answer in unison while banging on the table (because they are lazy, Quan and Exan just answe

“If you keep daydreaming,” said the blue haired girl, “you might miss interesting news from Mrs. Hilda!”Quan looked at her.“You mean, the Annual Tour plan.” She stated. “Sounds normal.”The girl named Abara sighed. She turned to the colleague next to her, as if to ask for help.“What do you want Exan to explain to me?” Quan asked casually, saying the name of another eyed girl next to Abara.“What Bara meant was not a general topic, but rather a specific one,” said Exan, bored.“Tour location, you mean,” said Quan calmly.Exan snorted. She knew that Quan knew, Abara did not.“Do you even listen?!” demanded Abara be impatient.Quan's turn to snorted. Abara became Abara again; something that sometimes makes her not know what to feel.“What do you wish for?” Quan muttered lazily. “Of course I'm listening
