“Things are peaceful when Zitrey doesn't meet any one of you. You will only hindrance to Zeth. As a father, I don't want my child to be hurt!”
The whole place are enveloped in an uptighting atmosphere. It was so unexpected for Benedict to say those harsh words, as he always wish for Zitrey to have companions.
“Dad?!” Kate asked in perplexed for his sudden changed in demeanor. But her dad didn't look in her direction, instead Shen looked at her, telling to trust her father while holding her hand tightly.
Mizu was about to say something too, but was stopped by her husband, “Shiro?” she muttered in wonder. William quietly shakes his head and solemnly said, “It's his decision as a legal guardian of Lilith's child, don't meddle Mizu.”
Mizu slightly frowned and looked at Heamillia and Zhi asking for help to convince her husband to stop Benedict but her companion in life and death just quietly nod, agreeing on
It was early in the morning, utmost almost 7 o’clock. The light of the sun was covered by the thick grayish clouds giving a slightly dim environment. The light, fluffy snow was still pouring down slowly making the whole place, ground, and trees to be covered in pure white, as well as the wide magnificent house of Von Lumiere family.In this freezing atmosphere, there’s a spacious, warm room located in the east corner, where Benedict and Nikka’s group were standing in barefoot. Benedict was in the center of the circle painted in white found on the shiny floor, wearing a yukata and with folded arms are facing Nikka and others in their ordinary clothes.“That’s good, you came earlier than expected.” He told them while consciously giving off a strong and immense aura that can be compared to a wild bear inflicting a threat, but it wasn’t effective.Nikka replied back while stepping forward from the group, “Of course, we can’t
As soon as the fight declared to begin, Nathan instantly runs speedily towards Benedict, he knows this man won’t move from his standing, it was either because of his pride as a former general or it is for belittling him, or he just wanted to test Nathan abilities and skills, whatever it is Nathan only wants to win this game.In a fast rate just after he leap his leg, Nathan was already near Benedict and in midair kicking his torso. It was such a strong kick even the audiences can feel and hear the loud impact of the hit. However, that attacked didn’t even make Benedict to step his feet backward, he remained firm from his standing, and easily stop Nathan by holding the sole of his foot. Nathan pulled his leg back and in the next second, he followed it with another kick aiming to his opponent’s head, but like before it was blocked by Benedict's arm. Nathan felt he just kicked an iron bar.In the next moment, Benedict holds his leg and throw his
His sturdy body lay down on the flourish floor, which was already outside the white-lined circle. Feeling the slight pain on his back Benedict disappointedly muttered, “I guess, I’m already too old.”William manifestly chuckled while helping his buddy to stand up, “Not my friend, we can still kick someone’s asses.” &
Folding her pointed jade fingers wrapped in the finest bandage, Zitrey maintaining her calm voice muttered, “Women, kids, man, adults. It was so numerous that made me stop counting off. But their faces, names, even their crying voices are all inside my head.”On the other hand, Aoi Akuma also starts to nonchalantly mumbled to the person with him, “Since we met, Crimson Blade is only searching for a certain person which was unknown to me.”9 years ago, in the year of Usagi, in a season of brightest summer, a dreadful life of a little girl has begun.In an unknown place where the blue sky, the fresh air, the green scenery of plants and trees, the spurting of fascinating flowers, the sparkling sea and rivers, even the soft muddy ground, and tall skyscrapers were all gone and can only remain in memory. The place was perfectly covered in just plained color of gray, black, and pure white. The light was dim unless on a special floor
‘Cold… I felt cold again. My body sinks deeper and freezes under the winter’s lake…’ Zitrey in thoughts as she continues her saying while staring into space,“In… in order for me to survive, I killed lives. In order for me to go outside, I assassinate. That’s what circled my world before until uncle Benedict found me while searching for Crimson Blade... Knowing it was his missing goddaughter, he hides me from those who chase after my head. Thus, giving existence to my outer coat, who you knew today.”“I…”, she halted, she hesitated, as she doesn’t want to say more about the drive that keeps her moving, about her goal to take vengeance. She was having a debate on her self, to what extent she needs to say, but her thoughts interrupted when suddenly a warm sensation of body’s temperature wrapped her fully. ‘Warm…’ a sudden word came to mind.This person always… and always caught her off-guard. As if he able to read her
Under the queer shade of the dark sky, white fluffy dots of snow and mesmerizing crystal flakes were slowly falling in the pool of white ground. Around the middle of the prosperous city, where most citizens living is enjoying their short holidays at home. In the office just above the famous bar with a hidden agenda, a gruesome incident has just occurred.A glint of red and blue light was dancing energetically above the police cars parking near the building of the incident. The area was surrounded by barricade tapes, a bright yellow polyethylene tape with large black printed letters. This restricts individuals with no authority to enter the crime scene. Groups of men in black uniforms are checking each of the corners of the area, searching for the clues leading to the suspect. Cameras are flashing constantly, capturing each angle of the dead bodies of three men laid on the cement floor, bodies wounded with several deep cuts that cause their deaths.A sudden appearance of the man in a l
The enormous and wide extravagant mall was buzzing with people in their winter coats enjoying their holidays with their companions, family, or just alone.Beneath the magnificent fountain in the centermost of the place, where beautiful water was sparkling with vibrant colors like a gem, a group of youngsters was standing there having a casual conversation while waiting for someone. Even if they were warned not to cause any unnecessary attention, still, their beauty was so captivating that made any passerby glimpse at them, especially when they were accompanied by the two distinguished young actors.“Why Zitrey and Christine took long to buy that d*mn cold sweet-flavored thing? Your little sister has a really weird taste, Cederick. It’s d*mn winter.” Nikka fretted, crossing her arms while foot was tapping on the sparkling floor, constantly, showing her restlessness. Cederick just laughs at her awkwardly while brushing his ha
Among the crowd were humans are minding their own time together, Nathan was walking on pins of needles while holding Zitrey's hand, he can't believe this was happening."Walking while in holding hands, isn't this like we’re having a date? I act so compose a while ago, yet here am I, so nervous and can't even utter a single word, and as expected I can’t start a proper conversation when Zitrey herself stays in silence. But, why..." Nathan touched his pounding chest that having trouble going back to normal. He was always confused about this foreign feeling."But, why I'm so happy?... Does this mean I like her? But what is the meaning of liking someone? When this organ called heart pounding like about to burst? Admiration? Respect? If we want to protect that someone against any harm? or want to know more about them? It seems such a simple question and easy to answer, yet it was hard for those who were like me. Either way, I only wish to stay by her side. Does this count of liking her?""..
The white ground was now partially painted in droplets of red. Zitrey hands are terribly trembling while frighteningly looking at her palm stained with thick warm blood. That moment when her mom died inflicted severe trauma on her. She can't breathe well nor think, even her dark shade eyes were lifeless like a dead fish.“Shsss. Rhea, I'm totally fine. Don't cry.” Benedict assuredly said to ease her worry, lips pleasantly curving upward while rubbing her soft hair. “This mere wounds can't kill me.” But what he was said was the exact opposite of what he currently felt, an anguishing pain.“H-hospital... w...n-need... go...” Zitrey managed to say with a quivering mouth.“It was such an unfortunate reunion, Benedict. You can still hold on, but the death's door was already opened for you.” Albert said amusingly interfering with them. In an instant when he
Touching the long deep scar on his cheek, though stain to his handsomeness it remained there as a crest of triumph during that stormy night. A prove that the little Andrea could kill, an indication that their game of hunt started, and a remembrance of the day were the Ainsworth Family break apart.“The scar you give to me still felt stingy, I wonder if it's because you were still alive, Rhea,” Albert told without a trace of guilt, and his face shows a devilish smile with no shame.Zitrey has a dark expression, looking down while clenching her palm, she mumbled, “You. You have no right to call my name!” She runs to attack with a fist but was blocked by the sword still on its sheath. Her strong strength was completely stopped by the young girl with that dark and emotionless eyes,
“Before I will answer your question, let me ask you first,” Benedict said after sipping the black coffee with seriousness. “What is your true desire?”Zitrey stunned and couldn't even respond, this caught her fully off guard. Her answer doesn't change about this obvious question but her uncle doesn't know about her dreadful plan all along, she doesn't want him to know, that's when Benedict answers her stead, “To avenge Lilith?”It was vivid on Zitrey expression that Benedict hit the right spot. “Even how deeper your hatred was, don't put justice in your hand. Let the adult and cops handle this.”Coming back to her senses, as always Zitrey refused to accept this, it was such a long year of waiting, “Although, Aunt Heamillia and Aunt Mizu said the same thing as you that my revenge can only bring more suffering. Uncle, my goal can't be changed. However, ... For now, I will try to suppress this.”It was a tiny
Elbowing Cederick, Ezikiel has asked, “How do you know that information, about that woman being a mistress?”“Did I never mentioned that I'm Jack's Candidate? Collecting information around this District is simply part of my job.” Cederick spoke in a confiding voice with a bit of bragging.“Tch, I forgot, you're part of a dark organization,” Ezikiel muttered with a grimace while arms were resting on his shoulders which were found funny by Cederick.“Uncle Strauss!” Cederick eagerly called to the man approaching them. His face clearly shows how excited he was for seeing him. Cederick seems a cute puppy wagging his tail when this person patted his head so gently. Somehow he acts like an ordinary kid in front of this man.“Gahh, I disregard the fact that he was also Kieth. This somehow looks cringe.” Ezikiel thought watching them, “And why 'he' was here?”“What are you doing here uncle?”
“What am I doing in the kid’s world watching your little sister play?” Ezikiel wants to swear badly for being used as a servant for a brat and forced to wear a bright and cute headband that was not suited to his cup of tea. He wears a white rabbit ear while the wolf was for Cederick. The two were holding plenty of shopping bags. It was full of interesting toys and cute dresses that Christine just recently buy. Cederick was obviously spoiling her.This big brother was having fluffy air with flowers while watching his little sister enjoying the big and wide kid’s pool full of vibrant small balls while playing with other kids.Hearing Ezikiel’s fuming, Cederick right away said, “Bear with it, we don’t want to interfere with those couples.”“But I’m interfering with your time together too.”Cederick shakes his head, “You didn’t, with you here, I’m not awkward with my sis. You light up the atmosphere, plus my s
One butler was assigned to each of the youngsters, accompanying them at quite a distance, does not disturb them if not necessary, assisting, and to ensure their safety.Nikka was strumming the classical guitar, checking the tone and it’s quality, while Yui was wondering why they were in the musical instrument store. “Why we are here? I thought we’re going to the arcade?” he asked in confusion.Testing the other instruments that pique her interest, Nikka responded nonchalantly, “Let’s go there later. We stop here to buy you a musical instrument. You love music and I would love to listen to you well, watching you playing these tools with your wonderful hand plus voice, sigh how magical it is. Music is your way to bring you to your family, their memories that stuck within you. Sometimes it lessens your sadness, eases your longing, a companion in times of loneliness, it was somewhat an invisible medicine. I always hear you sing, but as I was not gifted
