《Harmony: An Assassins Tale》Chapter 11: A Past Never Known and A Shady Man
Advertisement
So after all that, I went towards the hell resort to learn more about who exactly I was in the past. It seemed annoying at first, going to a new place, trying to learn about my past, but as I thought about the future, I supposed it was best for me to learn about my past. As I went forwards, I noticed there were 'Water Fountains' but with lava instead, and rather than dirt. there was stone, and on it , 'grass' was growing. It was the exact oposite of a normal home. It seemed weird at first but then I still considered who exactly was I and how exactly do I know all these. Anyhows, as I went towards the mansion, it was kind of like the Manlops but instead he stayed in place. "Who goes there? I am here to protect Wellington~Sama's secrets. State your name!" and I told him it was me, Johnny Wellington, and that I met the other Manlops and Hazen. He then looked at me and said, "Oh you met brother and master? Well then, come along, but mind me, even for you Wellington~Sama, you've only been able to stay here for an hour tops, and in that weakened vessel and weakened mind, it may last only 5 minutes, please make the most of it," he said, opening the door, and then vanished.
After this, I went inside the mansion and it looked amazing. It looked kind of like our school but with more of a high tech feeling and a more science lab kind of feeling. It had rooms for literally everything, from tissue rooms to bedrooms. There was nothing that was missing from this mansion, it is like a magical place! I continued searching through room and room and found a room full of chocolates and I snagged about 2 of them. "Hey! Wellington~Sama! That's my stash, and it's unhealthly for a human vessel, master!" Manlops Hell Version said , and I quickly put them back, whistled and continued walking forwards, to find my past.
As I walked past a special room, the hallway started curving like a slide and as I walked I saw many weird rooms, like Memory room, brain changing room, magic room, mech room, etc. In the end of the hallway, it was there. "My Past" Room, and it was locked with chains and what seemed like magic barriers. I was able to pick the locks but the magical barriers were more of an issue. It seemed like it was some sort of incantation and an incantation oposite to it would most likely open it.

As i looked at the incantation that popped up when I hit it, I noticed it was Ancient Jozaz, a country made around 400 BC with almost no background, with seemingly only me who knows it. I then read the incantation, and it said, "The one who enters, must look deep in his heart, and think, 'is this what I desire?' he then must answer honestly, and bring about change to what he wants, only then shall I open." [Obviously I translated it]. As so, I read the answer out, in the same dialect (It has not been translated for secret purposes), " Juzaz, SanHa Ikmaje, Wajata Ka Sab, Ko Ma, Ma Ma! Sa bi Ho de, kodamabe, wa dosebsey, nanmatohei! Muza Bai, Jis Ta Bat Ko, Lo Ma Ikmaje, Najade, Washabahab!" and with that the barrier opened. I was reliefed that it opened and I was amazed the incantation worked to begin with.
With that, the door opened, and the room was filled with mist. When I entered, I could feel the magical power surging through the room, and it was too much for me to handle. "Wellington~Sama! Even you couldn't withstand it before!" and Manlops Hell Version threw me out of the mansion and I was panting horribly. "Im sorry, you had 3 minutes left, but the magical power you embeded into that room was to much for you, even in your prime condition, I'm sorry Sama, but if you want to enter me again, to try, you told me that you must be atleast 10x more powerful than you were in the past, and at that time, you always said you only used 2% of your true power, so you must be able to be about 20% of your past self's true power!" and with that I was sent back to my own world.
I was thrown straight in the midst of a traffic jam, and every car in a 100m radius flung upwards 10 metres and fell down upside down. I only spent around 5 hours gone, so I decided to check up on Tou and Jennifer. "Hello, manager, I would like to see Tou and Jennifer, where are they?" and the nurse looked up, saddened, and said," You talking about Tou Kajo and that Jennifer girl? Boy, you have made them feel bad, it has been 5 years since you have came back." and with that I fell to the ground.
"5 years... I've been away for 5 years... yet I haven't aged. How old am I truly? If what the Manlops said wa- wait no, what if I'm dreaming? What if I've been in a coma? Yah, Yes, that is possible!" I said, laughing happily, well kinda like a maniac. I then walked to the school, and it was gone. I saw the previous principal and asked her what happened. "Is that you-- Johnny? Seems like you haven't aged. In the 5 years you were gone, the school wasn't able to make enough funds to support itself and so it collapsed on the inside and so we had to go and sell it." Once again , I fell to the ground, feeling guility, worrying about what happened.

The technology seemed to improve by alot, but still I couldn't feel at ease. I decided to call Tou , and Jennifer, and surely enough, there number changed. I didn't have strong connections with those two, but they were my closest friends, and the only ones I could trust. I continued walking around the walkway, looking for a way to contact those two, but to no avail whatsoever. As I walked by, I bumped a person. "Sorry, dude." I said, and he didn't even look my way, but continued walking. He wasn't looking at a phone, nor did he have a bag slung on his back. His face was shrouded with scars and his black hair was drooping down, covering his right eye. "Hello? You need any help? " I asked but the man just shoved me ahside. I decided to follow him, as he seemed to know something.
As I continued following the man, he walked to an alleyway and when we were alone enough, a sword popped into his hand and he reached it to my neck. "Who are you? Why are you following me? Are you apart of the government? Or the SPIRITS agency? Tell me!" He said, seemingly angry at me. "I don't know, I'm confused. I was gone for 5 hours and everyone seemed to have thought it was 5 years!" I blurted out, which I shouldn't have, which probably made me sound like a weirdo.
"Oh, you're that kid. 2 girls past by me , one from the government and the other with the SPIRITS, and they both asked me if they had seen a guy who wasn't shown up for the past few years, and showed me a picture of you. Now that I look at it, the picture seems pretty identical to your own face. You haven't aged? Damn, you probably went through the time lapse like me. Hello! Call me Hazen, pleased to meet you!" He said, and the bad dreams flooded back into my mind. Is this real, or is this fake? IS this the present? Or is it the future? Did I see the future? Or am I in the past? My head hurted as I was confused with the timelapse thing. So I asked him to come to a park and explain to me more about what exactly had happened.
"Im Hazen , The son of Hazen IX, also known as 'Butler' , I was appointed to find someone and kill him. I have not been told his name nor do I know anything about my target, but my father told me I had someone to kill and someone to murder, so I spent the past 28 years searching for him. If you are wondering why I look so young, like you, I went through a timelapse, a magical spell which shifts concept of time, which is handy in certain cases but has drastic effects. For the time being, you seem like a trust worthy guy. Mind joining me in my quest?" Hazen said, and I agreed, wanting to understand more about what had happened.
"I have a question, Haz, May you tell me what has happened to Tou Kajo, age 17, and Jennifer WithoutALastName, age 21?" and he nodded, pointing towards the billboard. "The big chest girl is Tou, and she is the head of the Government, a place which trains people to become Assassins, to kill SPIRITS, and Jennifer WithoutALastName is the semi-flat girl who is the Head of The SPIRITS agency, sworn enemy of Tou. They both have a joint mission however, to murder a man, who is still unknown to them. That was the wish of there previous heads, before they died, which caused a large comotion inside and outside the agencies."
I then wondered once more, Who and what the hell are the SPIRITS, and what exactly is the government. With a fuzzled up mind, Tou and Jennifer both moved to the headquarters of there specific jobs, Tou in Greenland, and Jennifer in NoOneKnows. I decided to continue my adventure with Hazen, and maybe ask Sensei and Hartsen about what had happened, and more about magic. As so, my next duty began, to help Hazen the tenth and find out more about the knowledge of magic!
