Chapter 301 - Passageway

"Aren\'t you in much of a rush?" Gavrael questioned her. "Then why are you asking me to wait? Shouldn\'t you be asking me to hurry?"

"Well… I…" Evie could not finish her words as her eyes caught the ruins behind Gavrael. He had transported and brought them over to the ruins of Dacria!

As if countless numbers of needles were stabbing into Evie\'s heart, she could only stand still just looking at the ruins with a sorrowful look. Her eyes filled as her vision blurred slightly as she saw how Dacria was now completely unrecognizable to that winter wonderland she had remembered it to be the first time she and Gavriel had arrived. And it hurts her every time she pictured in her mind on how this place looked like. It hurts her how easy it seemed to be in turning something so majestic, something so beautiful into a pile of rubble like this. Dacria was now nothing but piles of rocks and dust.

She swallowed the huge lump that had formed in her throat. This place had already grown onto her like it was her second home and the sight of it in ruins now, brought on more pain than she ever imagined it would. She had long prepared her heart, knowing that Dacria had fallen and in ruins. But seeing it for herself again, the impact was still more than she had expected.

Cool fingers suddenly ran her cheeks and she snapped out of her shock.

"What\'s wrong?" he asked her with a gentle voice, and Evie cleared her throat. Then she forced out a quivering smile as she blinked her tears back.

"Nothi –" she suddenly paused as though something suddenly popped in her mind. "Let\'s drop by here for a while." She told him before she unceremoniously dragged him towards the ruins.

Even if Dacria was in ruins now, Evie thought that it still held the same meaning to them both as this was a special place to them. Many of their firsts happened here. She also remembered that there was still that one place that could be left still intact even though the whole castle fortress had fallen.

The underground dungeon. The entrance of it. That was the very place they had separated and if her theory was right, this should be the place where he had lost his memories. This place was the start of the mystery surrounding Gavrael\'s appearance and Gavriel\'s memories\' disappearance. Everything hinged on this point.

The hope in her heart bloomed. Thinking that this could be the key to bringing back his memories as Gavriel.

"Can you bring me there?" she asked him, pointing specifically to one direction of the ruins of the castle far ahead.

Gavrael stared at her for a while then did as she said. They then materialized in the castle\'s ruins in the blink of an eye.

After Gavrael set her down, Evie looked around trying to get her bearings. She needed to find the exact location of the entrance to the dungeon. While she was looking around, Gavrael just leaned back against a fallen pillar, looking at her quietly and observed her actions.

It did not take long for Gavrael to wait before Evie found what she was looking for. Her face lit up excitedly as she looked over her shoulder and called out to him, waving her hands as she gestured for him to go over to where she was.

"Gav! Come over here! I\'ve found it!" she smiled widely as if eager to show him something interesting.

Silently, Gavrael approached her, and she quickly grabbed a hold of his hand. As she led him inside the passageway, she kept looking back at him, continuously checking if there was something that flickered in his eyes.

She took out her necklace which she had hidden in her pocket and her body immediately shone with an amber glow. Earlier on, when she entered Kirzan, she had taken the precaution to wrap that very precious necklace with a piece of cloth and hid it in a secret compartment within her clothes. So, it was only now that she had taken it out again.

Gavrael paused at the sight of her body glowing and his eyes zeroed in on the necklace which was held protectively in her hands.

Evie looked back and was about to ask Gavrael a question but just as she opened her mouth, he spoke up first. "You\'ve been here before?" he asked her directly and Evie took a while to respond.

"Yes." She said and turned again, feeling a little disappointed with his question, as she led him down the stairs. The fact that he could ask her that question means there had been no recollection of Gavriel\'s memories. But she then cheered herself up right after.

"I don\'t know what you wanted me to see down there, but I just came from here yesterday and everything inside is already ruined. There is nothing left to look at." He quietly told her, and it was Evie who paused in her steps this time.

"You came to visit here yesterday? Why?" Evie was curious on why he even visited this place.

Her question made him become very still. But instead of answering her, he scooped her into his arms and then jumped down, bypassing the endlessly winding staircase. Evie was thankful that they need not walk down those number of steps. He landed elegantly on the ground before gently putting her down.

Then all of a sudden, something throbbed in his head.
