Chereads / Electra City / Chapter 31 - Chapter Thirty-One

Chapter 31 - Chapter Thirty-One

"So many years to produce that kind of result.. Is it really worth it?? All you are doing is making this city suffer. A slow-taking suffering starting fron its roots; family to the petals; child. I wasn't there but I know when anger is too much.."

"What do you know about anger? You are Funia, child of nothingness. Born to serve the fallen and to die for the alive. You didn't know love. You didn't know friendship. You don't know about betrayal. This city should never have hurt me AT ALL. It is too late now... It is time for E.V.O.L...."

Nine years. So much time spent for revenge. So much time wasted for revenge. I am a people of blood. I know my thoughts are meant to nothing. But, this city wronged the wrong woman. My Name's Funia. A blood killer mercenary. And I was paid by my former master, Electra, to help destroy the legendary city who once defeated nations of the world alone.

"To prevent these errors from happening again, you'll be her BFFs from now on. It won't be difficult. You already tasted her once. Go, Funia."

"Yes, Electra.."

Electra who wished to live a cosy and cool life alongside her almost lover. Alas, things didn't go her way. I met her first when she was still a child. She hasn't even pissed blood that I was under her authority. Destined to lead an army of assassins, she gave up at the last moment to find love. Her departure troubled the Underworld a lot as she was her queen. The king who was supposed to marry her felt betrayed and killed her adoptive family. But she didn't care. And no could do a thing. Electra is the Queen. She was born one and rose like one. She just never had the heart for it.. Hence, here am I. Standing like a dog for her and watching a city of innocents fall slowly and painfully.

"Electra. I have a question?"

"..Sure, ask!"

"Did this city really betray you?"

"Constantly hearing bragging about how this city is white and odorless. I almost feel pity for it."

"Then, maybe!!?--"

"I was joking. Down City. City of Powers. City who conquered nations. City of perfection. Yet, it's like everywhere on earth. There's grade. There's humiliation. There's rape. There's family. When I first came here, I almost drowned myself. Sad to say, but I don't know how to swim.. And the girl who saved me. I could see her lying soul. I could see her darkness. But I simply ignored it, because I too had that. I too had darkness in me. I wanted change. I wanted a life. But all I found was; used, lied to, almost killed, hated. So, tell me great sage killer. Am I wrong to punish this city? Am I wrong to kill? Am I wrong to act as a Queen!!?"

"NO, MY QUEEN!!! I apologize for my words. This city wronged you and it is your right to end it."

I will get myself killed if I ask anymore question. But I heard rumors. I heard an urban legend. Something about witch. Being taking control of soulless body. I feel like my queen isn't really my queen. The Electra I knew wasn't confident and fierce. She was shy and a letdown. In a way, I am happy she seems strong now. At least, I'm proud to stand for her. I will kill for her. I will give my live for her. Prepare yourself, Down City.... You've breathed your last happiness.....
