Everyone Has Their Story


Just suddenly. The man's scythe swapped positions with him, while the sickle was still floating in the air and almost until the grasp of master Mizu.


As a result, a hard blow landed on the right cheek of Mizu until he collapsed on the spot after crashing a few centimeters.


The moment amazed me as if a surprise attack can paralyze the opponent once hit.


"What did I really say? I will not lie to you" said the man carrying the sickle to me.


"Well yeah, thanks for the help."


"By the way who is that old man, is he your enemy?"


"No, he's an old man who's always after me!"


"It turns out so."


Kino looks fine with only a slight cut on his cheek and arm, then I embrace him and take him away from the range where Mr. Mizu was.


While the man continued to look at the fake Mizu master's face while crouching with one hand holding a scythe. And put his scythe on his shoulder.


I don't know if Mr. Mizu is alive or not.


"girls. Look at this, his face is starting to change!"


"So it's true that he's not Mr. Mizu," I muttered as I approached the man, after putting the still-fainted Kino.


"His face began to change into someone else's, meaning he has the ability to imitate the face. That's incredible!"


"I recognize him, he is one of the king's minions. His name is Siniken the master of the plan, but... how can he take part in catching me, hmm?"


"Don't you...? There's someone else here!


"Take the right guess Princess, you as always are always smart in observing the situation. It's just that you're still a layman in my opinion, you're too smart to put your valuables here. Letting it lie unattended just like that!"


Because of my carelessness, Kino is now a hostage on the enemy's side.


It seems like Siniken was only in charge of disguising himself as Mizu's master to trap me, whereas "he" might just be the wielder of the wind ability.


At the moment when the wind blows past me, the direction is opposite when Mizu sir is in front of me. So I concluded that there was cooperation between the two of them.


"I won't beat around the bush, so give up Princess. I don't want to hurt you!"


"Actually who are you to be sought by the royal people?"


An improper situation to explain it directly, the sickle-bearer man looked at me with a sharp gaze.


"Oh, yes. I forgot to explain. The princess actually had a forbidden relationship with one of the royal guards, so we searched her here and there to catch her, because she ran away!"


"As a person from the kingdom I would be very grateful because you have found the Princess, just that your treatment earlier included a violation for injuring our comrade. So, I propose that you stop at the Princess' side and hand it over to us!"


"Then the king will give you a great reward in exchange, how?"


"No!! That's not the story. He's lying!"


"The incident was just a misunderstanding, I couldn't possibly do something that wasn't good.."


There was no way I could just act in such a way as to play the situation.


"You dodge however the evidence is that there is a Princess, you can't just dodge it."


"Enough! I trust him. After all, a fool is equal to a king's reward, I don't care. I just want him!"


"Ow you dare yes, refuse the king's reward. Though my offer was very good but you refused it, it's a pity."


"uh? Where's your scythe?"


Tras!!


"Sudden attack from behind."


I did know of the sickle man's impromptu plan, he forgave the chat earlier as camouflage to attack the opponent secretly.


But unfortunately the attack was read easily by the man, he could avoid it even though he was in one of the branches of the tree that was prone to attack.


"Come, girl! Get the hell out of here!"


"Eh, but you..."


"Emm," I can only obey her orders, hoping she'll be fine.


As hard as I run away from the fight that will happen, it seems like I will hand Kino over to him as well.


"It's just that you fight me, there's only death. Want to try!!"


"Try it, you fool!!!"


The dasrk!!


"Aaagrach!!!"


My steps came to a halt, when I heard the roar of the sickle-carrying man. Then after looking back, a sadistic look was seen by my own eyes.


The two arms of the man were crushed until fresh blood flowed on the ground.


Of course making myself pretentious to see the bloody scenery from a distance.


Not only that, I was also made to vomit after turning to see it. Now I'm hiding in one of the trees trying to figure out the next step I'm going to take.


It crossed my mind when Mizu once said to me "your power could have been active at any time Princess, could have been accidentally. The key is to focus on the person you're seven"


The flashback


"Is it that easy, just focus?"


"That's it, but it works on the ability user like you did before."


"Well, then I'll remember."


Flashback off


"I think I'll try it that way!"


I first peeked at the wind-capable man from afar, then I focused my skills on him. And wait for what will happen.


Unfortunately, I couldn't focus at all, as the shadows of the scene kept popping up in my head as if they were haunting me.


"Because of you now, Princess!"


Suddenly I was struck by the wind-capable voice of the man, who was now right behind me.


Up ahead, he is still clearly visible.


"Where am I now, wasn't I caught?"


The situation around me turned pitch-black and I lay here all alone.


A quiet place has no sound except the voices inside me.


I decided to go around this place.


A familiar place that I have never met.


I continued to move my legs forward but it was as if I was just sitting in a place close to a dead end.


It was as if I was returning to the same place I had been before.


Before long, this sticky darkness began to gradually turn into a glimmer of color. Which then forms a state around me.


"So... I think I'm in someone's memory!"


Now I'm in a room, rather a man's room. The conditions are messy and dirty.


There were even many bottles of mineral and plastic trash in his room lying freely on the floor.


His bed was a nest of disease when I saw him. And suddenly there was the sound of a door that was about to open


"I think this is the end of my story, where I spent my youth in vain just for a temporary pleasure. This reot house is a terrible place that I use as a hideout."


"If I were to live again, all I wanted was freedom. You can breathe fresh air and wind. Yep, it's all just in my delusion, so goodbye to the world..."


the crek!
