’My turn?’ Cupid didn’t get it.
’Yes. Now you will touch the mist.’ Pablo said again.
’Why? I am not interested.’ Cupid refused.
’I am not offering you a movie. You have to do it.’
’Why?’
’Because I want to see if it harms an Angel or not.’
’I won’t risk my hand just for your curiosity. No thanks.’ Cupid refused anyway.
Pablo sighed. "Sera, can you ask Andre to touch this mist?"
He moved to his next option. He couldn’t waste time with Cupid.
"I can ask him. I don’t know if he will agree or not." Sera said.
"Ask him."
Sera nodded. "Andre, will you d-"
"Yes."
"He says yes."
"Great." Pablo expected it. "Do it, Andre."
"Should I do it, dearest?" Andrezj asked Sera.
"Yes. Do it." Sera said and only then did Andrezj move.
He reached out his hand and dipped all of his five fingers inside the mist.
The bottle was small for him but he managed.
Pablo couldn’t see him but he would get to hear it from Sera anyway.
Cupid was staring with intent and Sera was calm.
Ten seconds passed and Pablo spoke.
"Did something happen?" He asked.
"Nothing." Andrezj said.
"He says nothing happened." Sera relayed it to Pablo.
"Okay. Tell him to keep his hand inside it. Tell him to say something when he feels some kind of harm."
"You heard him, Andre. Make sure to do that." Sera acted as a mediator and the Angel agreed as well.
’Is he not transparent like you, Angel?’ Pablo asked.
’What do you mean by transparent?’
’Like things went past you. You can’t touch anything, I can’t touch you.’ Pablo explained.
’If we want we can touch anything. Andrezj wanted to touch the mist for Sera and he is doing it. It depends on our wishes.’ Cupid answered.
Pablo stopped talking with her.
"Is he really touching the mist, Sera?"
"He is. I can see it."
Pablo nodded. "We will wait for five minutes."
They waited.
The slaves sitting at the corner of the room were confused as hell.
They couldn’t understand who Andre was and who had his finger inside the plastic bottle.
They were seeing nothing. For them, Pablo and Sera were just standing in front of the plastic container.
Nevertheless, they didn’t disturb Pablo.
’Five minutes are up.’ Cupid said.
"Anything happened?" Pablo asked right away.
"Nothing."
"He again says nothing." Sera answered.
"Alright. That’s enough. So the mist doesn’t hurt Angels. Ask him this, if this mist is the doing of a Devil would it have hurt him?"
Sera asked Andre.
"Yes."
"He says yes."
"Fine. He can remove his hand now."
"He already did that."
Pablo moved towards the items laid on the floor.
"So leather is ineffective to stop the mist. What else can I use?" Pablo examined the items.
"What do you want to do exactly?" Sera asked.
"I am trying to make something that can stop the mist from harming the body. Leather can’t stop it so I have to do something else." Pablo revealed.
"Oh. Then why not mix all the hard substances you have? Diamonds, coins, stones, anything."
"Yeah. That is the only thing left to do." Pablo also had the same plan as Sera.
"But how will we mix them all?" Sera asked.
Pablo didn’t reply to her.
"Jenny." Pablo called.
"Yes." Jenny arrived right away.
"Were you just around the room?" Pablo asked. She appeared faster than light.
"No. I just heard you calling me and I appeared." Jenny answered with a smile.
[[A/n : See Jenny here.]]
"Thank you for that. I called you because I needed to melt some things. I need a big vessel. I have something like that but it’s not big enough. Can you do it?"
"I can. There is something like that in this house."
Jenny snapped her fingers and soon, a big cauldron arrived inside the room.
"Will this do?" Jenny asked.
"Yes. Prepare some water for me as well and a clean cloth." Pablo asked for another thing.
"Okay." Jenny snapped her fingers again and a big bowl of water and a long cloth appeared in the room.
"Anything else?" She asked.
"How are you bringing such things?" Pablo asked out of curiosity.
"These things were in this house. I just bought them here in this room. Any of my friends can do this."
"Nice. And you can go now. Thank you for all this. I will manage now."
"Okay." Jenny vanished.
Pablo examined the cauldron but he didn’t touch it.
"Hena, clean it." Pablo ordered the Elf girl.
Hena flinched by the sudden call but she acted instantly.
She came forward and sat near the things.
Pablo would have called Nike or some other slaves but he just wanted Hena to do this.
The things were in front of Hena but she wasn’t moving.
She constantly stared at the water, the cloth and the cauldron.
’As I thought, she knows nothing about this stuff.’
"Cut a small portion of the cloth, make it wet and then roam it all around the utensil. That’s how you clean. Probably." Pablo said.
"Yes." Hena began doing what Pablo said and she didn’t raise her head to look at Pablo.
"What are you afraid of, Hena?" He asked.
"I… I am not afraid at all, sir." Hena replied.
Pablo smiled. "There is nothing to be scared of. No one will harm you. You have to trust me and tell me about you. It is my word that I won’t do any bad thing to you."
Pablo mustered all the niceness he had in his voice and hearing those words, Hena was forced to look at him.
"I will." She said only this and dropped her head down again.
’That’s enough for now.’
Pablo retracted his smile again.
’My lips started to hurt by giving all these smiles.’
"Do it fast, Hena. You are doing good, just do it fast."
"Yes."
Hena increased her speed and she also liked how Pablo said she was doing good.
She tried her best and after ten minutes, she was finished.
"I think it’s done now." She said.
Pablo nodded. "It is. Good work. Now go back."
Hena went back to the corner of the room and Pablo finally held the cauldron.
He placed it near the other items and one by one he poured all the hard things he could find inside the round utensil.
He had asked the villagers to bring many things and he was glad he did that.
He put some leather, some gold coins, skins of some animals and many other things.
Though, he didn’t fill the cauldron to the brim and now he was ready to do the thing.
"How will you burn them all?" Sera asked.
"I have also asked for matches from the villagers. I can’t waste Glory matches on this."
There were some normal match boxes in the items and Pablo picked up one of them.
After that, he waited for nothing and lit it.
He showed fire to one thing and it took a lot of time to burn.
He used more sticks and finally he saw some results.
The things caught fire and now he waited.
Smoke arose from the utensil and it reeked a nose wrenching smell.
Pablo handled it but the slaves and Sera made their worst faces because of that.

Pablo ignored all of them and kept his eyes only on the things.
"If you all are uncomfortable, leave the room." He said.
He used a thick wooden rod to stir the things up and down and he made sure not to let the rod catch fire.
As time went on, the slaves began moving out of the room.
Pablo paid no mind to them. He was sitting closest to the fire and yet he didn’t complain once.
His eyes never stopped watering up, he even began coughing but he didn’t move from his spot.
Sera was close to Pablo for a while but after the cooking went on, she moved to the back of the room.
And after five more minutes, Sera was out of the room as well.
"Just don’t die, Pablo." Cupid said. The Angel was now worried about Pablo.
His eyes were red and his mouth was dripping with saliva.
Pablo didn’t reply to her and carried on with his work.
After one hour.
The house was covered with Black smoke now and Pablo’s coughs resounded in the entire house.
All the ghosts were standing inside the room and the slaves and Sera were hanging their faces out of the window. They needed some air.
"It’s finally done." Pablo spoke. His coughing never stopped though.
"What is done? Jenny told us what have you asked from her. Don’t burn this house, brother Pablo." Richard replied.
The ghosts weren’t bothered by the smoke and burnt smell but they were still worried about their house.
Pablo didn’t reply.
He waited for the room and the house to become free from the smoke and he also sprinkled some water on the content of the cauldron.
After fifteen minutes, the smoke finally stopped coming from the utensil and after another fifteen minutes, the smoke went away from the house as well.
The room was finally visible now and all the slaves and Sera came back inside.
"What is going on, brother? Tell us." Richard asked once again.
And Pablo this time finally answered…
"I created a Magnum Opus."
