Chapter 23
Chapter 55:
When I was young, my mother and father spoiled me too much of love. Until my mother and father no longer care about me.
Apparently while I was growing up, I was seeking for love. I have all the attention because of my white wings, but they didn"t.
love me.
I want to go back to the past where I and my family were still happy, my father spoiling me and my mother smiling at me.
But I know that can't be undone, I was living like a robot for many years. Following and seeking love for my father.
He just has a new family and he prefers them, so I did my best to satisfy his wishes. I worked hard day and night.
Then he told me that he wanted me to be king, of course I didn"t refute or object this. until then, he wanted me to graduate as a top student in the academy.
Because I was following my father's orders, my life was dull but it was going smoothly. There are people around me but I don"t like them very much.
Until I saw someone on the border wall, she was happily looking around the academy. So I immediately approached there...
I also don't know why I was there, I was going to hunt at that time but instead I approached the woman with pink hair.
I didn"t know why I attacked her but I was amazed because she was good at avoiding. She said she was popular... but I didn't know her.
Her disappointed face somehow makes me happy, I thought it was cute teasing her. when she left Fallon told me everything about her.
The next day I saw her again, she was still the same enthusiastic girl I met yesterday. She even waved at me.
When the hunt began, his friend became my partner. He is not talkative so being with that lady is calming.
For some reason I suddenly heard something in the distance. I told Grim to check it out and I immediately followed.
It was pure instincts, I couldn"t escape a rope that suddenly pulled me. Then I saw her again, injured.
At first she was really annoying when we were just the two of us in the cave. She keeps talking and I was just listening, after that day...
~~~~ "
A lot happened after that, she was the first person who talked to me about freedom. I didn"t think anything about freedom until he said that.
"Do you really want to be king?" that question left me dumbfounded, because I also didn't know what to answer there.
She also told me that love... about pleasing anyone and not having their love in return. She opened my eyes to something new.
That you shouldn"t be chasing love, I realized that I was stuck in a cage like her. but I"m not brave enough to fly out of my cage.
But Dethyria. She was eager to fly away from her cage, she was eager to be freed. From the beginning I admired him.
She helped me many times especially my phobia, even though it wasn't her body. Her words and eyes of sincerity never changed.
She was the only sincere person I ever met. So the day he was punished, my heart sank deep.
I don"t know what happened that day, but I"m certain it wasn"t his fault what happened. Her eyes lost its fire the day she knew her brother died.
It was the same dull eyes as mine before, I was eager to help her too. But she told me that she would not forgive me if I helped her.
I was scared and worried at the same time. So I made a deal with dad that I would take half of his punishment.
I did everything to save her... but father was too cruel. Since the day Dethyria disappeared from my life.
I was back from the same old boring life I had when my father controlled me, but I was certain that he was alive and I would look for him.
No matter how long it takes, I regretted not telling and expressing myself from him. So once I find her, I will tell express everything to her.
She was never mine but losing her broke my heart. I left the kingdom and went to search for her. then Lamia told me about Dethyria's older brother's comatose.
So I asked her to take care of them, I don"t really trust her, so I put a protection spell on their body without her knowing.
I told Grimm to keep on guard of what was happening in the kingdom. Apparently Grimm said, Lady Nyphele seems to be pregnant.
So I have no choice but to take care of her child, I"m sure Deth will be happy when she finds out she has a niece.
Imagining her face makes me happy, I know she is alive and I know I can find her. It doesn"t when or how... I"m gonna find her.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ "
"Woi what are you doing there? Why are you sitting there staring at me like- Ack "I immediately hugged her and kissed her in the forehead.
"I just missed you." I whispered in her ear and she laughed. Hearing her laugh makes me happy too. "What are you going to do after this?"
"Hmmm, I will somewhat try to revive my older brothers with my third blessing." I stopped and stared at her.
"Wouldn"t it be dangerous?" I asked her, she smiled and shook her head. Pero her smile... somehow, I think it's fake. "Don't lie to me."
"Ah... h-I won't just bring my older brothers back to life. P-as well as corrupted species... it will take a lot of power though. "I was stopped by what he said.
What? Revive them? Her brother and the other are ok but also the corrupted species? Is she crazy? "I realized my third blessing has an extra... it can revive people. So I want to help. "
I immediately touched his shoulder when he said that. "No, you will not save them. Your kuya and everyone is ok- pero the corrupted species ??? No. "
"Lyf... I"m the leader of the angel-demon race now. I have to save them... especially their race. My third blessing will help everyone, it's our fault why they became like this. " He explained.
"But how are you?" worried I asked him. "Why can"t you think about yourself too? It's always other people- I thought you don't want to help them. "
"Like you told me before? you don"t care whether you help everyone or not. As long as you satisfy your curiosity. " I will add.
She smiled at me but this time it was sincere. I would have spoken in case he kissed me on the lips. She always knows what I need hm.
"Lyf, I know you don't want me to disappear again." He said softly. "Me too, I don"t want to either. But this makes me happy for some reason. "
I didn't speak and just listened to her like I always do. "Besides it satisfies my own curiosity, I get to help other people like my father and mother did."
"I always don"t like helping but this time. I have a feeling that I wanted to help, I know you don't want to lose me- "I sighed and cupped her face so she stopped talking.
"Does that make you happy? Like really happy? " he nodded and I saw the guilt in his eyes. I sighed.
"You said you wanted to be free so I won"t force you. but... I"m losing you. you know what will happen once your power is exhausted. " I stated.
"You will slowly disappear from this world... and I will never get to see you again." My voice cracked, I finally get to be reunited with her but... she will disappear again.
"But you forgot that you can find me again remember? This is not the only world that existed. " He answered me and hugged me.
"It was just a myth." I answered her again, seeing her gone makes my heart hurt so much. I didn't realize I was crying again.
I don"t cry much- but losing her again? "Lyf, believe me. You will find me again like when you believed you could find me. So believe in yourself. "
"You will find me again."
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ "
We finished talking about don and we both promised that we would never talk about it again. It"s already been a week.
She finally revived her brother and the others. Demeter who is next to me now, he was already looking at headmaster Dasher and Lady Nyphele.
Their body is still the same, they didn"t age except Deth and me. They immediately approached us and hugged Demeter.
Demeter started crying when they did that to their son. While Deth also approached us and stood beside me.
"It's a good thing Demeter didn't get mad at me for what I did to Nyphe. Look at Nyphe now, she"s still the same bossy friend I know "he yelled at me
I laughed at the same time. "She didn"t blame you because she knew you were kind. How"s your body? " I asked and she went silent.
"I'm sorry- I was just concered." I added. She revived a lot of corrupted species, somehow the angel-demon race has multiplied because of what Deth did.
She manages to revive everything and now our kingdom is becoming more peaceful. All races started living in one kingdom.
Everyone is united because of what Deth did, she seems happy but... I know her body is not fine. "Our wedding is tomorrow, won't we have fun?"
"It's good that you two are together." Lady Nyphele's response to what Deth said. Dethyria then went to hug Demeter again.
"Do you have a child? You didn't tell me. " Deth whispered to Nyphe, then Headmaster Dasher answered.
"Didn"t Nyphele tell you that we were dating for a year that time?" Dethyria glared at Headmaster Dasher.
"Bleeeee- Lyf and I will get married first. Not husband-baby-demon. " I couldn't help but smile.
"Ew- you"re really choosing this freak? Maybe you still have time to change your husband Lyford. " Nyphele responds to what Deth is saying.
"What will stop you from falling in love ?!" then both of them started arguing, just like the good old days.
Headmaster Dasher approached me. "Is my youngest brother okay?" he asked me. I didn"t answer.
Deth explained everything to them, even his brother didn"t agree. But she already did it, she knew Dasher would not agree with her decision.
So she revived the corrupted species first before her brother and others. Dasher had no choice but to accept it.
Of course we didn"t bring up this topic for a week, but Dethyria started acting weird. Sometimes he hides his right hand.
She even accidentally let go of a cup... it means she"s fading. "Go rest, your wedding is tomorrow." He walked away and approached his son who had earlier hugged Deth.
They even started arguing because Deth still wanted to hug Demeter. "Prince Lyf." I turned my attention to the caller.
It was Headmaster Ares and Fallon. I smiled when I saw them, they"ve been doing well when they opened their eyes.
Headmaster Ares and Headmaster Dasher returned to managing the academy. While Fallon is staying in the angel-demon race for training.
Actually, it has become livelier since Dethyria was revived a lot. I can say what she did wasn"t that bad, but it was a sacrifice.
She sacrifices herself to make everyone happy. So Dasher, Ares, Fallon, Nyphele and I promised to rule the races so that Deth's sacrifice would not be wasted.
Everyone respects Dethyria now, they should respect her. if not- then I will make them respect her.
(Wedding Day)
He is here in front of me. Smiling and everyone witnessed our wedding. "I never thought you would be mine." He said softly.
"You know, I really didn"t think you"d like me. But here you are, you even proposed to me to many people. I was embarrassed but it was romantic of course. "
Yes, I did indeed propose to her the day we saved the races.
I smiled sadly at her. she was slowly fading right before my eyes... in our wedding day. "I love you so much Lyf, even though I will leave you again. I will always love you. "
"I love you too, Deth." Then he approached me and kissed me on the lips. "This is not a goodbye, I will find you."
"Yes. I will be waiting. " She answered and completely disappeared leaving only her feather fragments.
