The Goddess of Revenge
Nightmare Memory

The ground suddenly shook violently, Krystal finally vented her anger by controlling the land on which they stood. Panic struck the nobles, they fell because they could not hold the tremors. At that time, the excessive fear clamped down on their feelings, Krystal did not allow any of them to breathe freely. From within the ground, when that enormous and terrifying wild plant came out, their bodies were wrapped around by that plant. Blood splattered out from their bodies as a result of the thorns that scratched their skin all over.

“AARRRGHHH! L-LEASH! PLEASE LET ME GO!”

“YOUR MAJESTY, PLEASE FORGIVE MY MISTAKE, DON'T KILL ME. PLEASE DON'T KILL ME.”

“I DON'T MEAN TO OFFEND YOU, THIS IS MY SON'S FAULT, I'LL PUNISH HIM LATER. PLEASE LET GO OF THE SERVANT, YOUR HIGHNESS.”

Krystal's anger subsided, she released all the nobles from her wild plants, the surface of the land returned to normal. They were grateful to be alive at the time even though the wounds they received were also very large, even among those who lost several limbs. Krystal twisted her body to return to the room, she was quite tired of expending that much of her strength to bully many people.

“You can insult me, but never bring my mother into that insult. Then remember, I release you today not because I forgive you, but I warn you to be ready before I completely eliminate you from the earth.”

Austin, Lucio, and Julian followed Krystal from behind, they also gave threatening gazes to those nobles. No one dared among them to open their voices again, all the insults directed against Krystal turned into an overwhelming fear hitting them.

‘That girl can't be allowed to live any longer, plus if she knows the truth, I can't imagine how our fate will be.’

...***...

“Krystalia, you are mine. I won't let anyone have you but me, you're the only woman I love. I won't let you turn to another heart.”

“Let me go! Don't touch me! Until anytime, I'm not yours!”

“Come baby, don't be like this to me. I'll save you from that problem, as long as you're willing to be my concubine.”

“NO! I'M NOT SUDI! I WILL NEVER FALL INTO THE SAME HOLE AGAIN!”

“SIALAN! COME HERE JAL*NG! I'LL MAKE YOU FEEL A TERRIBLE PAIN! I WILL KEEP YOU FOREVER BY MY SIDE!”

“AARRRGHHH! S-sick... I beg you please let me go....”.

On a quiet night, Krystal has a nightmare about a memory where she doesn't want to remember it anymore. Krystal was restless in her sleep, cold sweat pouring down from her forehead, just at that moment Heros came to Krystal at the request of Cherry and Bleas. Since Krystal groaned painfully in her sleep, Cherry and Bleas had been trying to wake Krystal up but there was no answer they got. Finally, they called Heros to help wake Krystal from a nightmare.

“How is this? His Majesty looks in pain,” worries Bleas.

“Krystalia, please wake up, don't let that nightmare swallow you up. It was just a dream, you are now in the real world. Open your eyes Krystal, don't make us here to worry about you,” Heros said as he clasped Krystal and shook his body slightly.

Heros rubbed Krystal's head, his anxious facial expression could not be lied to, all this time he was always beside Krystal when the girl was in a difficult position like now.

“T-please let me go, I t-don't love you l-again. J-don't hurt me, I beg you. Don't hurt the people I love, please ..”

Krystal unintentionally spoke up as her eyes closed tightly, she pleaded amidst the excruciating pain. His whole body trembled, cold with heat assaulting the body, watching Krystal in agony hurt Heros' heart. Likewise with Bleas and Cherry, they also get sick to imagine being in the position of Krystal.

“AAHHHH!” Krystal shrieks and awakens from a nightmare, finding herself in the arms of Heros. His breathing rhythm was heavy and irregular, his chest seemed to be suffocating, and his gaze was still not completely clear.

“Your Majesty!”

“Krystal!”

Their worries instantly disappeared as Krystal opened her eyes, though Krystal's body was still trembling.

“Heros .. I had a nightmare. I saw the man again .. he tortured me, I was in pain but there was no one there. Actually, how much longer do I have to escape? To be honest, I was afraid that they would find me again, what would I do if that time came? Did I run away again? I'm tired.”

Heros tightened his hold, giving warmth to the girl's body. Krystal's fingertips seemed to freeze from the cold, not because of the cold of the night but because of the cold of fear that swallowed him.

“No, you no longer need to escape. I'll be by your side, I'll protect you, so there's nothing to worry about. Don't feel alone, just trust me this time.” Heros calmed Krystal until her fear was completely reduced.

Slowly Krystal began to calm down, her heartbeat normalized again, but the dream still made Krystal shocked, Krystal's eyes still felt heavy and now she fell asleep in Heros' arms. Looking at the sleeping Krystal, Heros placed Krystal's head gently and gently onto the pillow.

“You two don't let go of Krystal's sight, she still can't forget about the problem. Right now he has a lot of bad thoughts, we don't know when they'll be looking for Krystal again. You guys understand, right?” heros's message to Cherry and Bleas.

“Yes, but what now? Are there any signs of them going to look for His Majesty again?” ask Bleas.

“Last-lately they look weird, they didn't do anything after Krystal woke up from her sleep. I will continue to watch over them from a distance, however it is not until Krystal is caught and tortured again by the man. Though he already had a consort he chose himself, still he was obsessed with Krystal,” Heros growled.

“During this time His Majesty has done a lot for us, but we can't do anything. His Majesty saved us repeatedly from death, but why is there nothing we can do for His Majesty's happiness? My heart aches when I remember how great a struggle His Majesty saved so many people alone,” Cherry said in a trembling voice.

Heros was pensive for a while, he also had the same thoughts as Cherry, there was nothing he could do for the sake of Krystal's happiness.

“I think so too, he always runs away from the enemy's pursuit. However, at this time I do not want to fail to protect her anymore. I'll be next to him always and won't make the same mistake back.”
