Chapter 104 Sylvia
Chapter 104 Sylvia
---..
'It's so peaceful, I no longer feel anything... the pain, anguish, despair, anger, and especially this burden that weighed on my shoulders, all disappeared into me as if they had never existed in me. It's so peaceful. Is it possible that I am finally in the afterlife? It's not too bad finally.' I say to myself while my thoughts wandered in my head. I had neither trouble nor regrets with the decisions I had made. I knew I couldn't defeat Sabrina from the beginning, but that didn't justify letting them use me as they please. I didn't want to be reincarnated if I were to suffer a similar fate in my two previous lives. With my atrocious choices and actions, I knew that my only house would henceforth be in hell. Of course, if this place existed.
'Sigh, I remember that my mother who had succumbed to this carcinogenic disease that was like a reaper sent by heaven only for our family... told me once, during my visit to the hospital that: God, angels, and demons existed. So naturally, hell and paradise will, in turn, exist to punish criminals, and reward pure hearts for their good deeds.' These were the only thoughts that had crossed my mind at that time. Was it because of my current state? Or maybe it was because death had finally knocked on my door that my mind wandered into the only beautiful memories I had in my life on earth? Sigh, this is the first time I have come to think of memories that I thought I had forgotten for eternity.
How long will he still remain unconscious? / I suddenly heard a thunderous and intense voice that had made me doubt the safety of my eardrums. My peaceful peace, my carelessness, everything had been broken by the simple sharp voice that was like a natural enemy of my peace.
But fortunately for me, this was the only sentence that this grotesque voice had pronounced. I had the clear intuition that this voice that resonated like that of a giant was actually just a dream. Otherwise, it may be the voice of one of the demons my late mother told me about when I was little. After all, it was not an exaggeration on my part to admit that such abominations existed. If Good and evil, death and life, exist, without forgetting the magic and several other races I had met before my death, then it will not give me too much headache to want to accept that hell, which will probably be my new home, exists and that it will be ready to welcome me with open arms.
As I patiently waited like an idiot, my judgment, while making the most of the peaceful feeling that reigned in me before the fiery storm began, another son of a b*tch disturbed my sweet sleep with his voice that made my heart vibrate with fear.
Watch your language, Kamyle! No matter your reasoning, don't forget who you are talking to! // Retorted the other ba*tard in a heavy voice who had been able to confirm one thing to me! If I ever took another attack of these kinds, it was not only the peace I was desperately looking for that would be inaccessible, but it was hell itself that would fall on me.
I didn't know how or why I could have such absurd thoughts. Maybe it was because of my state of confusion? Or my heart that had now lost its emotional functions and had no other tasks to accomplish than to distribute my blood between my blood veins. But no matter why I had to have such fanciful thoughts, I had absolute certainty that I was not going to find my beloved peace as long as these mysterious ba*tards continue to quarrel in my rest perimeter. If hell wants to torture me, it only has to do with things that are related to my sins! I refuse to let it disturb my sleep, for the simple reason that I had never committed these kinds of sins. It can stab me in the heart with burning flames, burn me to the bone, or even suck all my vitality, just as I had done with my enemies, but I refuse to be disturbed in my sleep before my judgment when I had never disturbed someone in conditions similar to mine!
By making this decision, I ended up reaching this conclusion when my mind was sunk into absurd madness for having conceived such ridiculous ideas. Even though I knew it was risky to open my eyes to prevent them from shouting, I had no other choice at that time if I wanted to regain my beloved peace! 'It's for a good cause! I have to do it!' Did I convince myself by clenching my fist and shouting to my full lungs! "You can't be silent while I try to enjoy my peaceful moment, a bunch of noisy bastards?!!" I shouted with frustration while my anger that I had not been able to evacuate against Sabrina and the others ignited again!
Out of frustration, I ended up giving up. No matter, I hate waiting where to make others wait. It was one of the bad characters I had unconsciously developed after my reincarnation in a world filled with magic.
"Hihi~ Are you finally awake?"
As I came to open my eyes, the first thing I could see was a white ceiling that was plated in the sky at an unimaginable height followed by the owner of this soft and mysterious female voice that was a little familiar to me. The reason she piqued my curiosity was undoubted because I felt like I heard the voice I often heard in my dreams.
And when I bent my head in her direction, I was able to see and be in the presence of a being whose existence I never believed! No, it would be fairer to say that anyone will question his existence. I, who was surprised at the slightest thing after my reincarnation on the planet of Alzania, on which I had seen demons, succubus, elves, and all kinds of fantastic fairy tale beasts... I had never believed or imagined for a single second that I was going to meet one of these beings. Normally, it would prove that I was truly dead. As my eyes struggled to get out of their eyeballs to better confirm my suspicions, I finally realized that the two troublemakers who bothered me in my sleep stood next to this being who was lazily sitting on a chair that seemed to be designed for giants.
I had come to this conclusion because of the two gigantic monsters, for lack of better words to describe them, standing beginning behind it as two giants status.
Despite having lived two lives, my brain refused to believe what I saw. A monster, for lack of a better word, which easily rose to more than ten meters high, stood with his arms crossed behind their backs. With petrifying red eyes looking at me, seeming threatening, they seemed strangely quiet. Two massive horns protruded from the sides of their heads, arched downwards and around their skulls, bending to a point near the front. They had a mouth with two stealth fangs protruding his lips and, while their bodies were decorated with elegant black armor that had no decorations or embellishments, he always shone like an invaluable treasure. These two demons of hell who stood in front of me have now made me embarrassed to even have the nerve to shout at them.
No, they were not the most impressive! The most impressive was rather the one who sat lazily on the giant chair, with his hands lazily supporting his head, was a being who would subject even the most unfaithful heretics. I almost choke with my saliva looking again and again at her humanoid silhouette with milky white skin that shone with holiness, her dark and cold pupils that seemed to contain all the cruelty of the universe, her thin pink lips, her slightly pointed ears like Sabrina's, and her smooth black hair that radiated like the stars plated in the dark night!
Her whole being made me think that she was there Sabrina's twin except for one small detail. The two two-tone feather wings antipode of black/white that was hung behind her back as if she were doing cosplay but who beat slightly because of her joyful mood, and not to mention this black halo that floated and swirled slowly above her head as in the fanciful anime I had occasionally watched on earth. I refused to believe that such beings existed!
Yet, she was there, in all her splendor... with her head resting on her arm, while her other hand nonchalantly swirled the red liquid in the wine glass. Even if the wines are often red, I did not dare to guess the nature of this liquid which had the same color as my blood. But why am I petrified in the face of her majesty when I no longer belong to the world of the living?
One thing is certain, I won't let her reincarnate me the second time, no matter what price I have to pay to achieve it. If it is she who is changed to judge my crimes, then so much the better, but if she tries to reincarnate me... the fight would be inevitable!' I had the nerve to have such thoughts after abandoning my curiosity about her.
"Hmm~ interesting. I expected to contemplate more facial expressions from you. But it seems that keeping your cool in this kind of situation is one of your strengths~." Had announced to me, if I dare say so, the fallen Angel, in a soft and joyful voice.
I concluded that she was probably a fallen angel who was responsible for judging people like me, who had only one destination after their deaths. But his inexplicable excitement left me in perplexity. It wasn't as if hell hadn't had guinea pigs, was it? To my knowledge, several bastards deserve to be the Duke of this place. Was I say to myself from a contemplative air while my stealthy look wandered to explore the huge room that was entirely white.
"Well, now that you're awake, I have to escort you somewhere without delay. Even if I would like to spend more time with you, if I make this crazy wait longer, I would be in more serious problems than now." She told me, and got up majestically on her giant chair and showed me the way to the corridors that seemed to be endless. And it was only now that I noticed that I was lying on a giant sofa and not on a bed when I turned around to look one last time at the gigantic room we were in.
With my greatest mistrust, I followed suit next to her for fear that she would leave me lonely with these abominations who did not dare to look me in the eye, maybe they tell themselves that they will not be able to keep their anger under control if they ever crossed the gaze of the person who had lacked their respect again. All I hoped in silence was to pray that these two would not be resentful.
"Ah~ I almost forgot to introduce myself, I'm Sylvia. But you can call me Sylvie~. Hehe, As for these two knights who kept disturbing you... the man on the right is Kamyle and Jamyle is on your left. Despite their incessant quarrels, they are still two twins who have come close to death together since they hatched. Sigh, I understand that all this makes you perplexed, but you will soon have answers to your questions." She reassured me with a sweet and innocent smile that, despite me, forced me to lower my guard against her.
But when I heard this name that was familiar to me, I could not help succumbing to my curiosity. After all, it was not my fault to be so familiar and rude to her, it was she who started at first. I thinking by asking my question even though I didn't have high expectations that she would give me answers. "Who is the so-called (madwoman) you're talking about?" I asked without worrying about my manners. The best thing was to gather as much information as possible about this unknown place, whose nature of my presence escaped me!
"Fufu~ what a question, of course, I'm talking about Dame Rina. Otherwise, who else has the nerve to threaten me?!" Had she announced in a sarcastic tone? Thanks to his answer, I was able to realize why I refused to open my eyes after regaining consciousness, and also why I was obsessed with my death and hell. The hell I was desperately looking for was actually the place I wanted to go to avoid finding them on my way and maybe the permanent pain of the burning fires will help me forget them for eternity. Because compared to accepting this reality of being betrayed by people I considered my family, hell was really a paradise for me. The real hell...is to live with this suffering that is engraved with red iron on my heart!
