Purity Online - The World For The Fallens
[Season 2] Chapter 50: Mountain Village
Finally, the sound of the baby crying rang out, marking the end of those tense minutes. The entire burden seemed to be lifted from Ryugai's heart. He heaved a sigh of relief while smiling when he found out that his wife and son were fine. The midwife immediately bathed the baby. The baby is in normal and healthy condition. What a miracle that is rarely encountered in cases of preterm labor.
"Congratulations. Your baby was born safe and healthy" said the midwife with a friendly smile etched into her face. "A very strong baby. Usually, a baby born prematurely his organs are not yet perfect causing complications, but somehow it does not happen to the son of the Father and Mother."
"Thank you." Ryugai received his son and carried him. "Look, Yuukaru. This is our son."
"A very strong and handsome boy, yes." Yuukaru smiled happily. "He will definitely grow up to be a brave, unyielding young man, and able to move the hearts of others, just like you were in the Purity Online beta test first."
"Yes" said Ryugai. "I hope so. By the way, you already have a name to give him?"
"of course. I named him Yamamura."
"A very good name" Ryugai said. "But why did you choose that name?"
Yuukaru turned towards the window of the clinic, looking at the vast reddish sky outside and the free-flying crows. The short hand on the clock located near the window is close to the number six. Light from the sun that has begun to set penetrates, coloring the floor of the room with a distinctive color of twilight.
"Actually, I was lying when I said I had to go back to the lake because there was something forgetful. Back then, I went to a former forest wasteland near the river to find out if any plants had survived illegal logging."
"Wait, why don't I see you? I'm, right, waiting on that bridge across that river." Ryugai interrupts his wife's story.
"That's because I deliberately avoided the riverbank" Yuukaru said.
The woman then continued her story.
"At first, I was desperate and upset. However, when I was about to leave, my eyes caught a green object. It was a small tree. At the same time, I also saw some grains scattered evenly on the ground. I smiled and felt relieved. It turned out that this mountain had still not given up on surviving."
"I turned my head. Not far from where I was standing at that time, there were some villagers who were busy planting plant shoots on other parts of the empty land. They do not care even though their bodies and clothes must be dirty and their energy drained. At that moment, I understood."
"The beauty of nature in this mountain has not changed at all, from the past until now. The spirit of the plants to continue to preserve their species is also not reduced at all. Suzume Village. The village never changed. The residents are still friendly and cheerful as usual, although surely in their hearts they feel anxious and riled because of the actions of the parties who often damage the nature they love."
"That's why I gave Yamamura's name to this boy. I want when he grows up, to be strong, to hold firm, to work hard, to have unbreakable determination, and never to give up. I want ... he became just like this mountain slope village (Mountain Village / Yamamura)."
"Well, whoa. Really nice and moving name meaning, yeah." Aunty who had just been silent began to drift.
He looked at the baby who was in Ryugai's arms with a smile.
"Auntie is sure, she can definitely realize the hope you put in that name."
"Yes ..," said Ryugai. "Surely."
The three of them looked at the last beam of sunlight that marked the end of the afternoon. The sky darkened and the Moon rose, continuing the task of the Sun illuminating the village with the light it reflected, as if symbolizing the surrender of the torch of struggle from the first generation to the next.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"Hey."
"HEY!!!"
Faint voices began to be heard in Ryugai's ears. However, the man did not care much about her and chose to continue sleeping.
*!!!"
A slap landed on the cheek of the disheveled blue-haired man. Reflexively, he opened his eyes, moved from a lying position to a sitting position, and felt his red cheeks. Yuukaru who had been wearing a police uniform was smiling with satisfaction in front of him.
(Author: A very rough but effective way of awakening, wkwkwkwkwk XD)
"Finally you wake up too" he said.
"What!! How you woke me couldn't be softer a little, huh?!" ryugai exclaimed in annoyance.
"You haven't woken up yet, so I had to use 'flagship move'" Yuukaru said. "Rather than talking about it, take a quick shower and get ready. You'll be late at work."
"Ah, you're right."
"I go first, yeah!!" The golden-haired lady waved her hand before finally leaving the room and closing the door.
"That was ... It was just a dream, huh?" Ryugai stared at the window of the room whose curtains had been opened. "There must be a reason why I dream about it. Surely the gods intend to encourage me."
A big smile was on his face. He stood up and got out of his bed.
"Well, now, it's time to start my day!!"
To be continued
Yaps, the filler is done!! Which means I can mentally torture Ryugai again, hohoho XD*ditabok*
No, kok. Joking doang. I will let Ryugai live quietly first. As I said in the previous chapter, the focus of the story will again lead to our current MC, Yamamura.
Btw, actually I had intended to make this filler to commemorate Yamamura's birthday which fell on April 17, but because there were some obstacles, the plan failed.
By the way, you're aware, aren't you? Right at this chapter, this novel had already broken through 100,000 words!! Hooray!!! Hopefully this novel can continue to grow and succeed continuously (although now it is getting quieter, heheh).
See you in the next chapter!!
