Chapter Forty Nine: Completion of the Chain of Destruction

“Lucianna!” Johannes exclaimed when Lucianna suddenly launched an attack towards me as she approached us in great haste.
“I am sorry oh great goddess of the wind, I just can’t seem to forget my burning hatred for you, can you grant me your benevolence?” she sarcastically remarked.
I held Johann’s hand and stopped him from going nearer Lucianna.
“What happened?” I asked her.
Though it is true that Lucianna hates me I know she did not meant to kill me. There is no intention to kill in the energy surrounding her, in fact there was the willingness to cooperate. And of course her hatred for me. the fact that I am a goddess did not seem to have any effect in her view of me. I am still the annoying girl who stole her love interest.
“They are ready to execute the plan anytime. My brother is in position,”
I nodded at her and faced Johann, “It is time, go lead everyone while I complete the spell I will use to defeat the wizard.”
“Can you promise me one thing Moria?” Johann held my face in his palm while looking at me with pleading eyes.
What is it that he wanted me to promise him? I waited for him to continue speaking but he remained silent for a long time. I felt Lucianna move from the sideways and I wanted to glance at her but Johann’s hand wouldn’t let me.
“Promise me that you will never die before me. Promise me by my name. Swear it in the gates of the realm.”
“What if I don’t?” I carefully asked if.
What if I can’t Johann? What shall I do then? Would that leave you broken beyond repair? I do not wish for that to happen so please tell me…
“Then I shall kill myself before you could endanger yourself.” his dark face tells me that he was not joking about that statement. I seems like I have coveted a huge part of him.
This is not good… I want to coldly push him away, but if I could I already did. But here I am still stopping my tears to flow out afraid it would hurt him even more.
“You cannot die Johann, you know it.”
It is true. He, who is not from this world, cannot die in his own hands. Others could kill him, but that would be impossible since he have strength far greater than anyone. He who wields both mana and aura cannot possibly be beaten by any wizling. But if he loses his desire to fight, his end will be nigh.
“But there someone right here, right there in the middle of the forest,” he pointed towards the source of the black energy, the enemy we were about to defeat, “that would and could kill me.”
I was perplexed with anxiety by the tired grin on his face. Does he intend to put pressure on me?
“I am simply asking you to preserve your life Moria, and in return I promise you, we, no even if it is just me who remains I will fight and save this world you dear.”
I saw it in his eyes, the resolve to end this chaos.
I lifted my hand to his face, “Harlequin, when this all ends, I wish to sit with you again under the shade of that big tree. So let us end this, together. Mahal kita,”
I saw tears swell from his eyes, “I love you too,”
He held my face and pressed his lips against mine. The world stopped and I felt like we were the only one left with the peaceful melody created by the beats of our hearts. If only we could not break this tranquil moment, I would take every opportunity I could because this is enough for me.
***********
“Monk Amon!” I saw her fall from up above. She did not fall but someone had shoved her down.
I glared at the person grinning not far from me; it was Zeph, Monk Amon’s brother.
“Ahhhhh!” another scream of pain came from below. Lucianna was down while holding her head, she was facing the ender heart.
This is bad. Everything went wrong because of me. I let my guard down. When I thought everything was turning out right.
“HAHAHAHA come on goddess what are you waiting for?”
In front of me was a scene very similar from my memories. The rumbling skies sharing the emotions I was experiencing right now. I felt my chest tighten; I cannot let this happen again.
In the Grand Arch Wizard wizard’s hand was the weapon he used years ago to destroy my home and my life, the reason why I cannot ever go back to the realm of gods and the reason for my death, the chain of destruction.
“Moria, look out!” Johann yelled at me despite having his hands full.
Saying that his hands were full was an understatement, right now it would be even possible to say that Johann was not capable of moving and helping anyone at all.
When we launched the attack earlier the first parts were all going as we wanted everything to be. That is until Professor Joseph went down because of taking an attack that was supposedly for Monk Amon. Monk Amon who was too focused fighting her brother did not notice the treacherous milieus who was aiming at her. Our balance and formation were destroyed from trying to help each other and it was taken advantage by the enemy. All while it is happening I failed to complete the spell I was creating the trap and make the Grand Arch Wizard immobile.
And the result was a bloody battlefield under me.
I avoided the incoming attack to me. I was tired from seeing the scene in front of me. My will to fight was drained from me I cannot take it anymore. Maybe I should just end all of it.
“Don’t give up!” it was a voice I least expected to give me support, the voice of a wounded but full of life Lucianna.
“Do not give up! You need to save our world!” she said angrily but tears were teeming with tears. In her arms was her brother, Joseph, body all wounded but raising his fist up in the air, looking straight in my eyes.
And I there I saw, every other wizling who was with me was doing it, telling me not to give up and encouraging me to keep on fighting, for the sake of this world. So I decided to fight, to continue living for the sake of the world and for the sake of the man I love.
For once I wanted to be selfish; I shall trying saving the world even if I could only save one person. For Llfhame, and for Harlequin I will win this fight.
