Chapter 14 - your voice sounds grotesque

Chloe looked at her phone ( opti-crystal phone), which had an unread message.

Reading the message which was an acceptance to one of the leading university in the empire she thought it was a scam.

But looking at the sender who was the queen herself she knew that that woman was really in for her.

the number saved was the tyrant evil queen.

The queen wanted her to attend music school?

"Why do you think the queen wanted me to attend music school, is it a way of torture or do you guys think she has ulterior motives?" She asked her husbands with curiosity after calming down.

" Ulterior motives? About you?" Alex asked sarcastically.

When Chloe saw how the fish brain, who was Alex looked down on her, she raised her chest high before saying shamelessly.

"What, Do you have a problem? Didn't you hear how this grandma sang yesterday in the banquet?"

"Yeah yeah yeah, you are great," he replied dismissively before following others.

"You can't just leave like that without even answering, hey Nathan aren't you their brain?" She followed them back to the living room.

"Partly but the main reason is that your voice can purify their minds." Nathan gave his suggestion.

" It's because your voice makes one question the Heavens will." Alex said in a disdainfull way.

He, a music expert was forced to listen to her grotesque voice and now they are sugar-coating it?

She sent him a resentful stare. What does he know?

Since she couldn't have friends, she enrolled herself in different entertaining projects like singing, dancing, acting, diving, fighting and many more.

She rolled her eyes ignoring him.

" What do you mean by 'purification?'" She looked at Nathan, her thoughts running wild.

That wasn't the first time she heard that word, she wished it couldn't be any other world saving grace.

"You should know that, no one entirely dies and if they do, it is through explosion where the body explodes in different parts.

The person must be alive when exploded for him to be dead completely.

Any other death like sickness, oldness, a car accident or even shooting can lead to death but the person resurrects with new powers like skin hardening." He explained while tilting his head to the side, the red stud at his ear looked stunning at his smooth skin.

She nodded her head like a chicken pecking grains.

And how can she not know something important like that, when she had been trying to figure out a less paifull death?

"All the people who fight those undead souls for too long experience mind fatigue and power exhaustion easily.

They find it exhausting to kill something that does not die and at the same time, they should be on a lookout not to be killed." He continued, his voice calm.

"As time went by, their mind and souls are exhausted followed by their body.

They usually go into madness during rain or in a crowded place.

It's a long time problem where experts have tried searching for ways to keep their minds in control.

Even though there are meds, but long term use of it becomes useless.

Your voice was like a fresh breadth. It can heal or mend their broken souls from madness.

About your voice; the queen does not want to keep on listening to it, to say the truth it was croaking and grotesque, maybe that is the reason she wants you to perfect it in a music school."

After understanding everything, Chloe greeted her teeth in hatred.

In short she can't escape becoming the world savior.

She thought she could just ignore touching fruits or trees but now how can she ignore singing when everyone knows it.

No wonder, the system had been silent all this time.

" Am hungry," she slumped lifelessly on the sofa.

Her mer husbands all stood up to start preparing her a meal.

She sat their in thoughts. There is no way she is going to school since she already learned it.

If that is the case, she must take advantage of this opportunity to ask for a fertile land from the queen to plant her own crops and rear animals.

She looked at her husbands in the kitchen and she smiled.

Since she can't get away from them or from her own life and fate, she should just enjoy life as it comes.

After coming to that realisation, she felt her body lessen like a big burden had been lifted.

She ate her meal and it wasn't that bad given that the food they cooked was what she had purified.

"Don't act like you are not around when you are always there, tell me how can I use my purification powers?" she asked the system after she was full.

She even blenched in satisfaction.

Since she decided to 'save the world' she must as well go all out.

[You agree, Chloe?] she raised an eyebrow at how the system called her.

"Not calling me host anymore?." She sounded hurt but her expression was amused.

[Larry, call me Larry, Everytime you call me system I feel like one.]

" Now look at my domineering Larry. Aren't you a system, what is wrong with being called one when you are one?" The system always acts human.

The way it shows hatred in it's words and the seething jealousy in them. Sometimes she could dectect arrogance of someone who has been in power.

[You have purification and healing powers.

About plants, you will just touch the soil where the plant is and imagine it's origin.

An orange tree for example, in this world, the orange fruit isn't sweet but salty with half of it being seeds.

The seeds in the orange fruit, has all it's sweetness.

What you need to do is search for a young orange tree, and use the method I told you while imagining the real orange tree, if the tree is already planted.

For the mature plants, it requires a large amount of spiritual energy when you have almost less than1% of it.] The system ignored her questions about it being human.

" Suppose my energy is depleted, how should I replenish it. And what about some plants like medicinal and some other plants that I have no recollection of their original picture?" she wasn't a traditional doctor and there is no way a world can cooperate without herbs.

[Energy is cultivated, I will tell you on how you should cultivate. This world is reach in energy.

Plants pictures can be downloaded from your phone, remember?

The phone is like a cheat card to you, it has even the latest movies and pictures, just download them from Google or any other platform.

If you find it hard, I will be happy to help. You should know that, every hour spent in this world is a year spent on Earth.]

After hearing the system's words, she looked at the orange fruit in her hand.

She peeled the green skin before separating it into pieces. Each piece had more than fifty seeds, she ate the flesh and it was all bitter.

She tried eating the seeds, even though the seed's skin was hard,it had a strange sweet flavour on it.

She went outside, to the field, to find any fruit tree, but she didn't find any. Her only option now was to visit the palace.
