Thus, the tenth spring of Liyuna began.
Petals of cherry blossoms fall enveloped along the streets of the city of Elishien. Liyuna and Yuriel who are currently in 1st grade High School grow up to be a very beautiful and charming girl. They have both passed the midterms which means that the second semester has begun.
Whether it was a coincidence or not, Liyuna, Yuriel, Yvette, and Allen were back in one class. Maybe it's the game developer's will, or maybe it's because of Yuriel's powerful halo.
Four years have passed since the assassination of Almera Ravenray. Many people left the city of Elisien, especially ordinary people who did not want to get involved in the feud between the conglomerate families. They are afraid of being affected and for those who have felt life in competitive Elishien, they are sure to continue living in another city that is not less big than Elishien. Some also decide to go to work abroad, hoping that all the problems that occur pass quickly.
From then on, Riana attempted to meet the original Liyuna but the results were nil. Although he could get to where the golden gazebo was, he could not find the real Liyuna as if they were not allowed to meet. It might be because it was not time for them to meet but there were so many questions in Riana's head until now.
But it seemed, he had to be patient a little longer.
"Yuna, good morning."
"Yuriel, good morning."
"Yvette too."
"Good morning everyone."
On this sunny morning, the school was already filled with students who wanted to study. They greet each other when they meet in the hallway and help each other in case of distress. Totally different from the old one where everyone competed and kept their distance. Even so, Liyuna did not blame them. How they are nurtured is also a factor of their nature as such.
One semester had passed, both Liyuna and Yuriel were able to blend in with the others very easily and as usual they both topped the academic rankings in their ranks. No wonder so many people know who they are. Aside from coming from the richest conglomerate family in Elisien, they also had outstanding achievements. Many wanted to get to know them because of it, let alone see Yuriel who was very friendly and kind to everyone, making the reputation of the Castris brothers even higher.
Not only that, Yvette who always played with them also had a lot of admirers. Cheerful girl who is easy to get along with anyone, in just a week she has known almost the entire generation. Really good communication skills. In addition, Vlisha Electronic owned by the Yvette family is also getting bigger and bigger. Their business is growing very well making Yvette even more popular.
Unlike Liyuna, Yuriel, and Yvette. None of the disciples dared to approach Allen. Every time they wanted to get him to speak, Allen would stare at them very sharply. Although he did not commit violence or anything, many were afraid of him. Even so, there were also those who dared to approach him and understand that Allen was not that bad. He just can't really find friends and has trouble communicating with strangers because he often puts on a scary face with a sharp gaze.
"You're late."
Allen looked annoyed. His face that used to still look immature, had now begun to form little by little, revealing that he was currently a 16-year-old teenager. There was not much that changed from Allen, his rude and liking nature was still the same, as well as his way of dressing unkempt.
"Whatchu mean? Even the class hasn't started yet!"
Liyuna smiled seeing her friends fighting like this. There was no day without a small quarrel, let alone Allen who always managed to upset Yvette. Either way since when, Allen and Yuriel's relationship calmed down. They rarely fight and cooperate more often. Perhaps this was due to the effects of the game, Liyuna had no idea.
When they first entered High School, Yuriel and Allen clashed to determine who would sit next to Liyuna. Although Yvette also wanted to sit next to Liyuna, he did not want to force her so decided not to go along until Yuriel and Allen agreed to sit together to be fair and let Yvette sit next to Liyuna.
This morning class just passed.
This time Liyuna did not join OSIS and only followed the craft club. As for Yvette, she continued her hobby in theater, as did Yuriel who went on to join the painting club. Allen himself decided to join the basketball club, Liyuna did not know that he had quite a great ability in the field of sports because as he remembered, in the game there is no such narrative.
Ten years passed, Liyuna felt it was quite a long time for her. His memory of the previous world had begun to fade and only small fragments remained that sometimes made him recall the memory of the past. Liyuna did not feel that it was something scary, after all ten years had passed.
Not only past memories that began to disappear but the memory of the Red String game was slowly lost and buried other memories in his brain. He never wrote the plot of Red String in a book or paper for fear that anyone would read it, after all this world is not entirely a fantasy world. It is more correct to say that this world is a parallel world.
Although her memory of the Red String storyline faded slightly, Liyuna did not mind that. Everyone had walked a different path where Liyuna herself would not know what would happen next and what was waiting for her there.
At the age of twelve, Liyuna was not engaged to Allen and after that Liyuna also realized that Allen and Yuriel did not love each other as they should.
"Then, I'm going to the club room first."
The four of them split up when the bell came home ringing all over the school. This has become their daily life, gathering in the morning and parting in the afternoon. The more they mature, the more they begin to change little by little.
The orange sky dyed the city of Elishien, accompanied by the gusts of spring breeze that carried the petals of cherry blossoms flying here and there.
Liyuna put a little of her hair behind her ears, looking at the orange sky from behind the window. This is an amazing sight. I don't know when he got used to this life. I don't know since he started mingling with this foreign place.
Liyuna felt grateful that she was given the opportunity to return to feeling life. A life where all the efforts in the past that he had experienced seemed to have been very long.
Actually there are many things that Liyuna wants to know, one of which is news from Lucas. Since he returned to Russia 9 years ago, Lucas has not contacted him at all, nor has he contacted Yvette. Liyuna is eager to find out about him because Lucas is one of his precious friends who changes his life. Little by little he helped Liyuna improve her poor image among the students and made her able to blend in with the others.
Although there was no news at all, Liyuna was sure that they would meet again. Otherwise, Liyuna herself would have gone to Russia to meet him. Liyuna wondered what Lucas was like now.
Liyuna did not need to wait for long, her wish would soon be granted. After all, this was the promised time.
