Purity Online - The World For The Fallens
Day 51: That Light
Ryugai sat in the backyard of the house, staring at the sky that began to change color to red. The sun slowly started towards the horizon, as if it was attracted by a hidden magnetic field. The young man had just returned from school. He didn't train today because his condition has just recovered. If he forced himself to train until he was seriously injured, right, not funny.
"Truly a beautiful sight." Ryugai smiled peacefully while staring at the clouds that were passing in the orange sky accompanying the descent of the Sun.
"Oh, you are here, Ryugai," said Grandpa Yurato who emerged from the wooden door behind Ryugai. The middle-aged man with grayed hair then sat down beside Ryugai. "Gonna look at dusk, huh? It's beautiful. I've loved doing this since I was young."
"Grandfather too, huh?" Ryugai.
The blue-haired youth bowed lethargic. "Unfortunately, it seems that I can't see this beautiful twilight every day anymore .... My time is in this world .. there are only two weeks left ...."
"Hm?" Grandfather Rato turned his gaze from the twilight sky towards Ryugai's sad-looking face. "you mean? You gotta go?"
"Yes, return to my home country" Ryugai said. "That country is waiting for me, but I don't think I want to go back there. Life there is very hard. I don't want my noble-hearted personality that has been hard-formed here to end. I'm not going back to those bland days ...."
Tear drops flowed from Ryugai's eyes, landing on the grass and floor boards. "I don't want to .. break my precious relationship with you guys .... These memories ... are too beautiful to erase ...."
Grandpa Yurato smiled, then groped Ryugai's shoulder. "Son Ryugai, why did you go on an adventure and become a wanderer?"
"Initially because of coercion, but I ended up having a compulsion. Because I want ... to change myself ..., and also to transform my harsh, dark-filled country .. into a beautiful place like heaven ...."
"You can't make that dream come true if you don't go back to your country, can you?" said The Grandpa. "You can't change your country if you stay still in a luminous place. A candle in a bright place is useless. The new candle will come in handy when it goes into the darkness and illuminates around. This isn't your place. This is just a temporary residence. You should go back .. to where you should be .... For you are not destined to have fun here .. but to fight against the darkness unyielding and fearless."
"But ..., I don't want to .. erase these precious things ...."
"Come, comeon. We will part, and may never see each other again, but as long as our hearts are connected, we will never feel separated. We feel connected every day. No one will leave you. We will always be with you. Physical separation is common, but it never happens. Our inner bond will always exist and be eternal ...."
"Don't forget the past, but you also can't keep turning to the past. You have to keep moving forward, even if you have to walk and fight alone."
"I'll miss you, Ryugai. I'll never forget you."
Those last words made Ryugai unable to endure the turmoil of his emotions anymore. Cry broke. He was crying sobbing. Grandpa Yurato simply smiled as he stroked the young man's shoulder slowly. The last light beam of the sun had vanished from the sky. Darkness began to replace the red color of twilight. Yes, that last twilight light has been swallowed up by the darkness. The Sun has separated from the humans. But that goodbye is not forever.
The twilight light ....
Will continue to shine with hope, even alone ....
He believed that ..he would be reborn the next morning .... On a new day ....
