Miss Most Perfect Beauty
An Accident for a Blink of Eyes

“They died...” Og Scarlesia.

Scarlesia left, wanting to know Hedwig and Vivian's father and mother Elios, the king and queen of the white demon clan. Scarlesia walked among the pile of corpses while enduring the pain in her heart. The ruins of the palace collapsed so that it covered its path, forced him to take a detour to get to the main palace. However, once there he did not find Hedwig or Vivian, Scarlesia returned to explore other parts of the palace.

Scarlesia stopped her steps, and she heard Elios' voice not too far from where he was standing. Scarlesia followed the source of the voice, she was jolted to see Hedwig and Vivian lying on the floor surface with blood pouring violently all over her body. Scarlesia enlarged her steps, Elios was beside the bodies of her parents with tears almost dripping down her cheeks.

“Elios...” call Scarlesia very slowly.

“Sia, My Mom and Dad. they...” Elios's sentence hangs, his aunt shudders with tears.

Scarlesia immediately knelt down, she checked on Hedwig but it was too late because her heart was no longer beating. His breathing had stopped, his fingers were very cold, there was no more life for Hedwig. Scarlesia could only shake her head slowly hinting at Elios that his father had left.

“Heukk... Father...” Elios shriveled, his voice disjointed. “Ibuku... How is my Mom??”

“I'll check it.”

Scarlesia turned to Vivian, her body still had residual warmth, but her heart rate and pulse were weakened.

“Elios...”.

Vivian came to her senses and called out to Elios, at which moment Elios' cry paused for a moment. He calls from his mother.

“Mother... Why did this happen? Tell me who did this to our clan?” elios asked, holding Vivian's hand.

Vivian shakes. “Now I just want to talk to you,” said Vivian, the volume of her voice is very small but still can reach both of their hearing.

“Wait a minute. Can you cure my mother Sia? I beg...”.

“No Elios, sorry. I can't because the wound on your mother's body is mixed with the power of darkness, ” cut Scarlesia said with a very heavy tongue.

“The power of darkness? You mean ap...”.

“Enough Elios, I. I don't want to be healed, I'll go with Hedwig. S-now I just... want to say goodbye to you...”.

“Please don't talk like that, I don't want to lose Mom....” Omit Elios further tightened his grasp.

It was also difficult for Vivian to leave her only child alive in this cruel world, she loved her son whom she had grown up with so much. Unaware of her tears, she fell when she saw Elios crying for her. Elios, who had never shown his warmth to his parents, now had his children come out.

“Don't cry Elios..don't cry..You'll still be fine without me and Hedwig.

“NO! I can't. Mom said I was going to see my wedding with Sia, Mom said I wanted to see my son with Sia. How can you leave without realizing your wishes first? Please wait a minute, I beg you to hold on until that happens,”

As Elios' tears rolled down his cheeks, Scarlesia could do nothing but remain silent beside Elios.

“Sia, come here,” call Vivian.

Vivian's hand wanted to reach Scarlesia, Scarlesia quickly clasped Vivian's hand. The crevices of her fingers had already begun to be attacked by the cold temperature, Scarlesia's warm hand wrapped around Vivian's cold hand.

“I'm here.”

Scarlesia's memory suddenly takes her into her past life when she lives in this palace. A beautiful memory that contains the moment he was with Vivian and Hedwig, given how happy she was when she was treated like a real daughter by the two of them. How excited Vivian was when she lived here and prepared for her engagement with Elios.

“Sia, I made you a snack.”

“Sia, do you spare now? Let's have tea together.”

“Sia, do you like the dress I chose for you?”

“Sia, wear these accessories so you look more beautiful. Ehh but my son-in-law's candidate is already beautiful without accessories.”

“Sia, why are you sad? Don't remember the family that hurt you, now I think of you as my daughter. So, think of me as your family huh,”

Her memories with Vivian were too many, indescribable through words. She remembers Vivian learning to cook for her, always taking her to do fun things, always buying her beautiful dresses, giving her a luxurious room, and always behave like a biological mother when she is stricken with deep sadness.

“I-mom...”.

Scarlesia could not help her crying anymore, she had been pushing herself not to cry, but she still ended up crying. She was just a fragile girl when faced with a problem like this.

“Yes my daughter, ahh how long have I never heard you call me Mother? Last time I saw you crying was when you had a fight with Elios. Do you remember? You used to sleep on my thighs too. How wonderful my life was then, I want it to feel like I'm back in that time again,”

“Mom can go back to that time, but please please hold on for a moment..” Scarlesia's pinta sobbed.

“I'm sorry I couldn't keep my promise to you two. I'm leaving now, I'm bringing Elios to you Sia. I'm glad Elios loves a pretty girl like you..”.

Vivian's eyes were completely closed, her soul had left with her beloved husband Hedwig. They return to eternity together, living and dying together, truly true love. His heartbeat was no longer heard, his blood flow stopped, and the rhythm of his breathing was no longer felt. Elios was destroyed in the blink of an eye, he lost the person he loved the most.

“Mother... Father... AAAAARRRHHHHHHH!! WH WHY? WHY DID IT HAVE TO END LIKE THIS? WHY TAKE THE LIFE OF SOMEONE I LOVE? WHY SHOULD I LOSE AGAIN? WHYAAA??? AARRRHHHHHHH! Please anyone give them back to me..”.

Elios' tears were breaking down, he was screaming hysterically for not being able to accept all this. Scarlesia clutched Elios tightly, and it broke my heart to lose Vivian and Hedwig. Not only were the two of them even the entire white demon clan, he cherished them since they had treated Scarlesia well long ago.

“There I am here, I will not leave you Elios. Strong yes dear, strong,” said Scarlesia with a trembling voice, she joined in crying but still trying to be firm for Elios.

“My heart hurts Sia, it hurts a lot. I lost them all overnight, I don't know what to do now. Hugged me even tighter, I beg you..”.

Elios buried his head in Scarlesia's arms, sobbing. Scarlesia's chest was too tight to see Elios like this, right now she just wanted to be next to Elios and accompany him to reduce her sadness.

“I'll hold you always Elios, I won't leave you again. I will continue to be by your side forever, can you be strong for me? I understand you are sick, I feel the same way. But look at me, look at my eyes, no matter how things are, which is clear I will be the only woman you will be home to,” Scarlesia said forcing Elios to look into her two eyes.

“I feel like I failed Sia, I failed to protect them. I'm devastated, I'm getting scared of having no more reason to survive.”

“I know, if that happens then you have no reason to stay, then I beg you to make me an excuse to stay. Know it? I cannot live without you Elios..”.
