KRISSHO STILL LOST IN THOUGHTS
DEEP ENOUGH TO GO INSANE
IT'S NOT USUAL THAT SOMEONE AS DUMB AS HIM
THINKS THIS MUCH ABOUT SOMETHING
EVEN CARE LESS
BUT THAT MAN - RAMAYUKI AND HIS DEEDS
IS MAKING EVEN AN IDIOT LIKE KRISSHO TO THINK
WHAT DOES A MAN HAS TO DO TO
GET HIM CHASED LIKE THIS???
HE EVEN CAN'T SHOW IS FACE TO ANYONE
EVEN IF IT'S THE COMMON PEOPLE
THATS HOW MUCH HE'S WANTED!!
IS HE REALLY A BAD GUY???
AND THE ONE IS GOOD IS SYKON???
I DON'T KNOW! I'M SO CONFUSED!!
BUT THEN AGAIN HE DID SAVED THAT KID
RISKED HIS LIFE TO SAVE THOSE TWO
BUT THEN AGAIN WHY??? WHY???
WHY DID HE KILLED THE KING'S WIFE???
MORE IMPORTANTLY
IS SHE THE ONLY PERSON
HE HAS KILLED IN THE PAST???
I DON'T THINK SO
I HAVE TO KNOW ABOUT IT
I HAVE TO! I HAVE TO MAKE SURE
WHOM TO TRUST
MAYBE IT'S JUST AS HE SAYS
HE WAS ONCE A MERCILESS KILLER
AND NOW HE'S TRYING TO CHANGE
OUCH! MY HEAD IS HURTING
IF THINK MORE ABOUT THIS
THAT SRISARASWA WILL SURFACE!!
QAYOMI TOOK UKO AND WENT WHERE KRISSHO IS
UNDER A TREE, LEAVING CASORA AND RAMAYUKI
BESIDE THE RIVER, GIVING THEM PERSONAL SPACE
AS CRYING CASORA RECALLING HER WORST MOMENTS OF HER LIFE WHEN
SHE WAS BEING CURSED BY THE DIVINE RITE
AND RAMAYUKI SAW IT, EVEN IF SHE TRIES HER BEST TO FORGET IT, EVEN IF SHE DOES, RAMAYUKI WON'T
"LOOK AT ME", HE SAID
"THERE'S NO NEED TO BE AFRAID ANYMORE
I'M HERE ~
WITH YOU AS HE HOLDS HER CHEEK SOFTLY "
"CASORA THREW HIS HANDS AND STOOD UP
SHOUTING AND CRYING
NO!! NOOOOO!!!!! NOOOO!!!!
I'M NOT THAT CASORA ANYMORE!!!
I'VE BEEN CURSED!!!
AND YOU SAW IT!!!
AND WHAT YOU SAW!!
IT WASN'T FOR THE FIRST TIME!!!
I'M NOT SACRED ANYMORE!!!"
"CASORA LISTEN ----"
"THEY STOLE IT FROM ME!!!! MY REVERENCE!!"
"CASORA STOP IT----"
"FORGET ABOUT ME!!
I'M NOT WORTHY OF YOU!!
BUT PLEASE FORGIVE ME!!!
PLEASE, PLEASE FORGIVE ME!!"
"CASORAAAA!!!-"
"ALTHOUGH I CAN'T FORGIVE MYSELF
I KNOW YOU'LL
OUT OF PITY
I DON'T WANNA LIVE LIKE THAT!
SO I'M GONNA END MY LIFE -"
RAMAYUKI SLAPPED CASORA ON THE FACE ---
CAUSING HER BLABBERING TO CEASE
"LISTEN - WHAT HAPPENED
HAPPENED - I DON'T CARE ABOUT IT
I LOVE YOU CASORA
IT DOESN'T MATTER TO ME
YOU BEING CURSED
IT DOESN'T - IT DOESN'T CHANGE
THE AMOUNT OF LOVE I HAVE
FOR YOU MY DEAR, EVEN A BIT"
MOVED BY HIS WORDS SHE CRIED OUT LOUDER!!!
HUGGED RAMAYUKI SO TIGHTLY AND LET IT ALL OUT
KRISSHO THOUGHT SOMETHING WAS WRONG SINCE RAMAYUKI SLAPPED HER BUT QAYOMI MADE HIM UNDERSTAND THE SITUATION
THEY WERE RELIEVED
BUT QAYOMI REALIZED THAT
AFTER HEARING RAMAYUKI KILLED THE KING'S WIFE
KRISSHO'S FACIAL EXPRESSION HAVE CHANGED
HE'S NOT PUTTING MUCH EFFORTS IN THINKING
OTHERWISE THE OTHER ONE WILL SURFACE
"HEY, RAMAYUKI"
"HM?"
"SAY, THE KING'S WIFE YOU KILLED
WAS SHE A BAD PERSON???"
WITH A LONG PAUSE HE REPLIED
"NO...SHE WAS A GREAT
LOVING AND CARING PERSON"
AS HE SAID THAT HER SMILING FACE
FLASHED BEFORE HIS EYES
"THEN WHY DID YOU KILLED HER???"
AS RAMAYUKI TOOK AN ABSTINENCE
AFTER HEARING THAT
IN A BLINK OF AN EYE
THAT NIGHT FLASHED BEFORE HIM
THEN HE REPLIED -
"THAT'S NONE OF YOUR CONCERN"
"HEY QAYOMI
YOU GUYS GO"
"HUH? YOU'RE NOT COMING???"
"I JUST REMEMBERED I HAVE SOMETHING TO DO
SO LET'S PART OUR WAYS HERE
I'LL CATCH UP WITH YOU GUYS LATER"
WHILE TALKING -
THERE WAS A GUY WHO WAS GATHERING WOODS
SAW RAMAYUKI AND PANICKED SO HARD
THAT THE WOODS FELL FROM HIS HANDS
"IT'S!! IT'S HIM!!!!
THE MAN WHO PUT A SCAR
ON THE DEMON KING'S FACE!!!
CAUSING HIM TO RUN OUT OF FEAR"
RAMAYUKI SAW HIM AND REALIZED
"EVERYONE KNOWS WHAT HAPPENED
IN MY PAST EXCEPT ME
OR THEY JUST KNOW THE GIST OF IT"
QAYOMI, UKO AND KRISSHO STARTED
TO HEAD BACK TO RASOV'S PLACE
AND RAMAYUKI AND CASORA STARTED TO HEAD
THE OPPOSITE WAY OF LOKARA
ON THEIR WAY THEY FELT EXHAUSTED
SO THEY DECIDED TO TAKE SOME REST
UNDER A TREE, BESIDE A FOUNTAIN
QAYOMI SIGHS - 'HAA, I WANT A BATH!"
WHILE QAYOMI WAS TAKING A BATH
UNDER THE FOUNTAIN
KRISSHO WAS SILENT
SUNK IN THOUGHTS
"KRISSHO!!! KRISSHO!!! KRISSHO!!!!!"
"HUH??? WHAT HAPPENED????"
"WHAT' HAPPENED!??
THAT'S MY QUESTION!
WHAT HAPPENED TO YOU????
YOU'VE BEEN ACTING STRANGE
AFTER KNOWING HE KILLED THE KING'S WIFE"
"IS IT THAT SURPRISING???
I SHOULD ASK YOU THE SAME
WHAT HAPPENED TO YOU???
HOW ARE YOU SO CALM ABOUT IT???"
"YOU DON'T KNOW WHAT HE HAS BEEN THROUGH"
"THEN TELL ME!!! AND STOP JUSTIFYING WHATEVER THE TRANSGRESSIONS HE HAS COMMITTED!!!
I EXPECTED BETTER FROM YOU QAYOMI!!"
KRISSHO SHOUTS
"SSSHHH!! YOU'RE GONNA WAKE UKO UP"
SIGHING SHE CONTINUES "I DO WANT TO TELL YOU
BUT I GAVE MY WORD TO RAMAYUKI
THAT I WON'T TELL ANYONE ABOUT HIS PAST"
"THEN CAN YOU AT LEAST TELL ME
HOW CAN I GET TO KNOW ABOUT HIS PAST???"
"YOU CAN'T!
BECAUSE EVEN HE DOESN'T KNOW HIS PAST COMPLETELY!
HE LOST HIS MEMORY 7 YEARS AGO!!"
"THEN THERE'S NO WAY TO KNOW HIS PAST???"
"THERE IS,
ONLY ONE PERSON KNOWS HIS PAST COMPLETELY"
"WHO???"
"SYKON -"
"AS FAR AS I CAN TELL YOU ONLY THAT IS
HE KILLED THOUSANDS OF PEOPLE
MERCILESSLY! REGARDLESS OF WHO THEY WERE
AND NOW HE IS TRYING TO BE BETTER
SINCE HE'S TIRED OF ALL THE KILLINGS"
"HE KILLED A THOUSAND MAN
AND NOW HE WANTS TO BE A BETTER PERSON???
WHY? WHAT TICKED HIS MIND TO DO SO???"
"THAT'S ALL I CAN TELL YOU FOR NOW
IF YOU WANNA KNOW MORE
YOU HAVE TO ASK SYKON FOR IT
IF HE TELLS YOU THAT IS"
"SO THE ONES WHO CHASES AFTER HIM
IS TO GET REVENGE FOR THEIR LOVED ONES
WHO THAT RAMAYUKI KILLED RUTHLESSLY*
"YES, THERE'S ALSO ANOTHER REASON
PEOPLE DO NOT UNDERSTAND STATES COMPLETELY
AS HE HAS THE GOLD SPIRIT
YOU CAN UNDERSTAND"
"EH??"
"OW 🌚 YOU GUYS PLAY WITH GOLD UP THERE
YOU SEE, GOLD IS A VERY VALUABLE THING HERE
SO IN STATE ZERO WE CAN ONLY GENERATE
OUR ELEMENTS WHERE THE CRITERIA
IS ONLY LIMITED WITHIN OUR FIST
BUT PEOPLE THINK THAT IN STATE ONE
RAMAYUKI CAN GENERATE GOLD BEYOND HIS FIST
WHICH IS TRUE BUT THE CRITERIA IS ONLY ONE CUBIT
BUT PEOPLE THINK THAT THEY CAN TAKE THE GOLD
BEYOND HIS HAND AND SELL THEM
KIDNAP HIM TO GENERATE INFINITE GOLD
WHICH WILL MAKE THEM RICH
WHICH IS PRETTY DUMB IF YOU ASK ME"
"I SEE"
"LET'S GO
WE HAVE TO FIND A RESIDENCE
BEFORE THE NIGHT GETS UPON US"
"WHILE ON THE OTHER HAND
RAMAYUKI AND CASORA WALKING
AS THEY REACH WITHIN THE MAIN CITY
CASORA REALIZED THAT THEY'RE NOT GOING
TO RAMAYUKI'S HUT BUT TO THE RAKA RESIDENT"
CASORA ASKED - "WHY ARE WE GOING THERE????
LET'S HEAD BACK!! I DON'T WANNA STAY THERE ANYMORE!!"
"THAT'S EXACTLY I'M GONNA DO"
"EH???"
"I'M GONNA ERADICATE ALL OF THEM!!
WHO DID THIS TO YOU AND UKO
I'M GONNA KILL THEM ALL
I'LL WIPE OUT THE ENTIRE RAKA CLAN"
"NO! PLEASE!!! DON'T DO THIS!!
YOU DON'T HAVE TO DO THIS!!!"
"THIS ARGUMENT CONTINUED ON THEIR WAY BACK TO THE RAKA CLAN IN A BULLOCK CART"
THEY REACHED THERE AT MIDNIGHT
KICKING THE DOOR WIDE OPEN
IN THE RAY OF MOON
THE BLOOD AND BODY GLITTERED
BODIES - DEAD BODIES
ALL OVER THE PLACE
IT WAS LIKE A MASSACRE
RAMAYUKI IN UTTER SHOCK!!
AS CASORA BREAKS DOWN
COULDN'T BELIEVE HER OWN EYES
CRYING!!! WHO DID ALL THIS????
WHICH WAS NATURAL CONSIDERING ALL OF THEM WERE DEAD WHO SHE ONCE CALLED FAMILY
RAMAYUKI GOT CLOSE TO THEM, THOROUGHLY
EXAMINED THE AREA AND BODIES COMPLETELY
HE NOTICED TWO THINGS
1. THEY DEFINITELY DIED BY SOMETHING SHARP
2. ONLY THE MALES ARE DEAD
HE'S NOT SEEING ANY FEMALE OR CHILDREN ANYWHERE
AS THEY ENTERED THE MAIN HALL
THERE WAS A PERSON SITTING ON THE
THRONE OF THE RAKA CLAN
PUTTING ONE LEG OVER ANOTHER
SAYING VERY CALMLY AND IN A POETIC VOICE -
"YOKOSO - WATASHI NO GRAVEYARD YE"
(WELCOME TO MY GRAVEYARD)
NARRATOR - WHO IS THAT PERSON?? HE DID ALL THIS??
IF SO, WHY?? WHAT EXACTLY IS HAPPENING???
