Transmigrated With A Resolution System

"F*ck no! You've finally lost every sense of reasoning." Zephyr snapped, glaring daggers at Nix.

Facepalming, Nix finally realized the problem with what he had said, he couldn't understand why his brain hadn't immediately warned him before it transmitted the information to his lips.

'Yet again, I'm misunderstood.' He let out a sigh, shaking his head at how stupid he felt.

If he would wish to save his face, he would need to think fast about how to correct that error.

"That's not what I wanted to say..." he began.

"But you still said it!" Zephyr hissed, narrowing his eyes. Pushing himself up, so he could stand on his feet once more.

Nix's lips drew into a thin line. He looked behind him to gauge the reaction of the rest to this little misunderstanding.

Lank gave an enthusiastic thumbs-up, understanding what he meant, having been there when Mr. Gaviel explained the ropes through that weird wave of light that had hit them before being transported to the organization.

He could also relate to the fact that they had been misunderstood several times by others.

Nix let out a little chuckle at Lank's behavior, that was enough to lighten his mood.

Obsidian raised a brow, confused by the weird expression. In blind loyalty, he chose to blindly believe Nix said it with a good reason as always.

Solis had his mouth gaped open, eyes wide with shock and curiosity. "I had joked about you and Lank, but I didn't know you had eyes on Zephyr, who would have thought that..."

Bam!

"Shut it you ball of sunshine, cut down on the rays, will you?!" Lank hissed, his hand raised from Solis' head after punching him on the head to shut him up.

When he had heard him speak, he could already tell it would be nothing but trash spewing from his lips all in the name of a 'joke'.

Solis took several steps back, holding onto his head and whimpering, it was best he took a good step away from them all as he was still a target of hits on the head, even though his sister wasn't present.

Nix shook his head and wished he was the one who had hit Solis so he could let out more steam built up for Zephyr.

Stiffly turning his attention towards Zephyr in front of him.

Zephyr jumped back in surprise, instantly regretting that he had not used the opportunity to dash away while they were distracted–especially Nix.

Another part of his thoughts commended him for holding his ground; if he had tried running, Obsidian's gaze was still locked onto him. He would inadvertently invite a bigger fry to his side.

Another hit to the ground was something he dreaded. In his ears, a ringing sound still plagued his eardrums like a broken alarm.

Gritting his teeth, he could only blame the fact that he wasn't equipped with anything like his abilities nor his weapons to defend himself.

He still couldn't understand why he was the only one who had suddenly become a victim of this weird plague.

"Don't come any closer." He barked as Nix took a step towards him.

Nix had his right leg in front of him, a grin on his face. "Don't tell me you're scared of little me?" He said with an air of mockery, enjoying every bit of it.

'Little? You're way taller than me anyways. That skill you showcased on me earlier, you call that little you?' Zephyr's thoughts rambled on with disappointment at how far he would have to suffer if he would mistakenly accept Nix's words.

"I don't care what you say, but don't you dare take a step forward." His voice trembled when he tried to calm his racing heart.

"Is that a warning?" Nix questioned, taking a step forward to spite him.

He was curious about how far he could go with an attitude and body such as his.

Frantically shaking his head, he frowned at how fast he was reacting to Nix's words but was also relieved that he refrained from approaching anymore.

"I'm glad you know the limit to your words," Nix shone a bright smile that forced up a nostalgic feeling in Zephyr.

"I did say that they are..." Solis gulped.

Whoosh!

Holding back on his words, it was best not to speak any more about what he was witnessing the moment he felt a chill run down his spine and a demeaning figure behind him.

Stiffly turning his head, he gasped at the deathly glare from Obsidian. This was far different from the one given to him by Lank or Nix.

There was always something different about Obsidian, when he had seen Obsidian almost lose control of his temper, it had made him glad that he was on the neutral side of the problem.

Now he wasn't so sure he still maintained that position, he was sure if he spoke any more lines about the two, he could be pulverized.

"We're good!" He assured, "I will stop speaking now."

Obsidian's brows eased on the affirmation, giving a nod.

"Open your shirt and check underneath. Do you have some sort of neck chain with a pendant, gem, or medal hanging on it?" Nix specifically constructed his question.

Tilting his head in confusion, Zephyr blurted out the word, "what?!!"

Nix held his stare on Zephyr, he wished he wouldn't interfere with him, but this affected them all, there was no way he would let this slide.

'For the ease of their transportation back to our comfort zone.' Nix chanted in his thoughts and exhaled.

"Do the words I had spoken earlier ring any bells? It's your body anyways, you should know what's on you." Nix couldn't stop himself from sneering at the reply from Zephyr.

"Uhhh!" Zephyr plunged his hand into his shirt, feeling for the said object, pulling out a cloud-shaped white pendant which had a silver outline, which slid to his finger which had pulled on the silver chain. "Do you mean this thing?"

'Are you freaking stupid?! Didn't I make it clear earlier? Why ask such a triggering question?!' Nix's lips twitched uncontrollably, almost wishing he would rain down curses on his face.

Zephyr could tell Nix was having an internal battle with himself, his brows and crazed expression only made him uncomfortable. "I know I had f*cked up, and this was uncalled for."

Hoping that his words could calm Nix and be given the explanation he had unintentionally rejected when he didn't calm his nerves before judging.

'Of course, you did, jerk! You think the world revolves around you?' Nix's lips drew into a thin line of disappointment.

He was curious about how Nix had guessed that he was wearing one, all he could hope was he forgives his initial outburst.

Going with an experimental solution, he ordered him to take the pendant off.

Zephyr tried to understand why he would do that. Rumi had specifically told him that they couldn't do anything about the pendant on them and should avoid every attempt to do so or they would both reap the consequences.

At first, he thought this was some sort of pendant that proved the love she and the original host had for each other, but the more he thought about it now, the more strange and disturbing it felt to nitpick on her words.

'There's another story to this pendant?' Zephyr thought, stunned and in shock.

"Take it off!" Nix ordered in a loud voice.

"No!" Zephyr refused, his hand holding firmly onto the pendant and taking a step back, shaking his head.

'I can't, I feel something would go wrong if I do.' Zephyr thought in a panic, his heart pounded as he stared wide-eyed at Nix.

Nix could see it, those knowing eyes, he wondered if Drui masking as Zephyr could almost easily access the memory of Zephyr better than he could of his mother.

"You won't or can't?" He pressed on, trying to force him to the corner so he specified to what extent he knew about the pendant.

The reaction by Zephyr was only a testimony that this pendant was the main cause of his ability deactivation.

Someone somewhere was remotely controlling the activities of Zephyr's ability.

He looked around them, hoping to get some sort of information or location. This could be the ability of another user in action.

From his guesses, the user needed to be close to their location as this wasn't a problem when they attacked Scraw and its underlings.

'Mune!' He called on her presence again.

Pop!

She popped into view from a ball of light, almost scaring the shit out of him. He had to maintain his composure in front of everyone that still thought they were all alone.

'Don't do that to me.' Nix hissed, his heartbeat quickened as he took a step back from Zephyr.

[Sorry, master!] Mune apologized with a pout, sweat dripping, clasping her hands together and batting her long lashes.

[What can I do for you, master?]
