replied as I turned back. \"Go talk with someone else.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Well, that's the problem,\" she grumbled, chuckling, slowly walking closer and sitting beside me. \"I don't have anyone else to talk with.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I didn't reply but just drank the wine from the bottle.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You know, I am quite selfish,\" she whispered softly, gazing up at the sky. \"...Look at me now, trying to act friendly with you after leaving you at your worst.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I tried to force myself on you,\" I mumbled, feeling a sense of disgust for myself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"...You would have a few screws loose if you stayed with me after that.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You did that to save me?\" she replied, her voice soft.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"That doesn't change anything,\" I rebuked quietly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"...Remember how you always tried to coax me when we were children?\" she whispered, bringing her knees closer to her face. \"...I miss those days.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Crybaby,\" I commented, making her chuckle.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I couldn't help it,\" she replied, pushing me lightly. \"...I was... broken; it's hard to be normal after knowing when you're going to die.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I quietly nodded in agreement.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I was the same as her after knowing I didn't have much time to live.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But unlike her, there wasn't anyone around to support

when I saved her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>...I do remember not wanting to see her die in front of me.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[...]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"When are you leaving?\" I asked after a moment of silence between us.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Half an hour, maybe,\" she replied, looking at me.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"...Moshel's Tomb will open soon for one week, and I will have to protect it from 'that being's' influence without dying; the rest is easy.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"...The rest is living in solitude until you die,\" I scoffed, looking at her. \"It's anything but easy.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"...Maybe,\" she mumbled, uncertainty clear in her voice. \"At least it's not something that I haven't experienced.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"...I see,\" I mumbled, gulping down the wine.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"...Are you not going to wish me?\" she asked, making me glance at her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"For what?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You don't remember as well, huh?\" she mumbled, smiling softly. \"...Well, it's my birthday.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>...Ah, right.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I forgot about it with all the things happening around.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\".....Does it matter?\" I asked, looking away. \"You are going to die anyway.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"How rude,\" she grumbled, slapping my arm. \"Is that how you talk with a birthday girl?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Yes,\" I replied, not hiding my annoyance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Whatever,\" she puffed her cheeks, looking up at the starry night sky.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>My stomach twisted in agony as I looked at her, quietly sitting beside me.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>'...I am still the same little boy, huh?'\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I was sure nothing would affect me after Oliver's death, but that doesn't seem true.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But knowing that she will be standing against me soon doesn't sit well.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>'A tragedy.....'\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I grimaced as I remembered Helena's words.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In a way, she isn't wrong.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Isn't it tragic for her to protect something that I wish to destroy?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She will protect Moshel's Tomb with her life, and I will destroy it to bring Oliver back.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>...Even if it means I have to go against the one whom I saved with my own life.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>'A tragedy indeed.'\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Azariah.\" I turned to look at her as she called me. \"...Remember the dream I told you about?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"...About having four, five kids?\" I asked, making her groan in embarrassment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"...Yeah, that.\" She mumbled, nodding her head. \"...About having a family, living away from all trouble.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I do,\" I mumbled as I looked at her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Well, I left one part out,\" she replied, turning to look at me. \"An important part, a very important part.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"...That is?\" I asked, looking at her curiously.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"...You were there with me,\" she replied, smiling softly. \"...You were always there, taking care of our kids.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"....\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I blankly looked at her without saying a word.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She did the same, with no word coming out of our mouths.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I slowly turned around, looking at the sky once again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I should go now,\" she mumbled as she stood up, and I did the same, slowly getting up.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She didn't move but kept on looking at me.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"...I have to go, Azariah,\" she mumbled, a sad smile lingering on her face.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"...I know,\" I replied with a tired smile.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"...Will you miss me?\" she asked, tears welling in her eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I shook my head in response, whispering, \"...Not even once.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Am I not getting a goodbye hug?\" she asked hesitantly, opening her arms.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I clicked my tongue, shaking my head. \"...I would rather hug your cold corpse instead of feeling your warmth.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"That's rude,\" she replied with a chuckle, looking into my eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I stared back at her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Our eyes said goodbye when we couldn't say the words.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And I knew it was time to let her go.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There were tears in her eyes, but I stood still, not trying to wipe them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Maybe in the next life,\" she mumbled with a bright smile as she turned around.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I turned around as well, as I slowly lowered myself onto the surface, laying down on it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"...Sigh.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I sighed

eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But just as she moved, someone grabbed her wrist.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She turned around, her brows knitted together as she looked at the girl. \"...Christina?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Come with me,\" Christina replied as she started dragging her away.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Wait, where are we going?\" Arianell asked, confused by her sudden appearance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But Christina didn't reply; instead, she brought her in front of a room.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Click!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She clicked the door open before
