Chapter 21 - I Want To Go Back So Don't Stop Me

Shaizu stood there listening to his mother, he smiled at her once again and held her up from the ground she'd fallen on.

"Mother.. I only wanted freedom you, I never hated you or my people even for a moment, I knew there was a right thing in this, and I know you were able to see it too."

"I don't hate you, I love you, and I love my other family just as much, both are very important to me and I can't choose one side."

"You're gonna leave in the end after all?" said Madelite while her voice lowered itself, her throat was sour, she had been crying.

*Shaizu nods silently*

"And I must return, I'll confirm my earth family's situation and if they're safe, I'll come back to my responsibilities. I know how much the universe needs me and I won't run away."

Madelite smiles, she gives up on prisoning him.

"Alright, I give up, I won't be holding you back anymore, a shooting star looks brighter if it's soaring in the sky."

"But tell me once more, Who are you?"

"I'm an experience, I was made for this universe, the universe was made for me, we make each other."

Madelite smiles at her son "however I'm still going to ask you to come back to us soon, your Milafing ceremony is very important but we've postponed it for now."

"All the elemental guardians have asked for testing you before they could agree to accept you as their prince, isn't it great?"

"Once you earned the trust of these deities there won't be any problems with the rest."

She kept talking forever while shaizu was too impatient, could he really have time to pay attention to her? His body may have been somewhere else but his mind was already on earth, that's the only thing he'd thought about.. Queen Madelite's voice had become hazy but it was finally reaching out to Shaizu's ears again..

"Shaizu!"

"SHAIZU! ARE YOU STILL ON PLANET COSMALA?"

Shaizu snapped out as he was being yelled at.

"On this day, each prince and princesses are greeted by their people, but what's important is you'll be choosing 7 brides for yourself to continue ruling this world by your side."

"You're officially an adult and you will be crowned as the next star lord soon."

"It's a very important part of today's ceremony, you're the last blood, we expect you to not let our bloodline extinct."

Queen Madelite felt like she was babbling to herself, prince shaizu wasn't showing much interest in woman or the people.

"Hm fine, but I'll set one condition from myself too." Shaizu grinned at his mother.

"What is it?" Queen Madelite curiously ask.

"The woman I'll choose won't be only from this planet, I'll travel on different planets, and I seek freedom to choose any woman I found interesting from any of those worlds. Is that alright?"

*Sighs* A cosmalan is indeed necessary to experience the whole universe slowly, you have the freedom, you can make any choice you'd like."

"You're the king."

Shaizu smile at his mom, Queen Madelite also smiled back. Everything was settled and It was about time he'd leave for earth Finally, but just when shaizu was about to leave, Madelite remembered something.

Shaizu turned back and asked, "What's wrong?"

"I forgot to tell you one another important thing."

"Once a cosmalan has their Milafing, there's a Trial they must fulfill in order to prove their existince. It's a very strict tradition among people of light."

"To prove my existence huh?"

"I can't tell you much about it, but I'm sure you'll realize it very shortly."

"Alright, umm.. erm.."

Nunama who had been sitting there and seeing Everything had noticed shaizu was behaving strangely, it seemed shaizu was rather hesitated after all the issues had been fixed.

"Are you alright demon boy?" nunama asked.

"'Demon?'" Shaizu with an annoying look asked his not so funny uncle..

His gaze returned to his mother and his cheeks turned red. Queen Madelite understood and she started laughing hard.

She instantly hugged her son.

"What's this? you wanted a last hug before goodbyes, what a shy boy."

"I'm.. I'm not shy! But.. erm, I've always wanted you to hold me in your arms, I craved for your motherly love, is that a wrong feeling to have for a son?." Shaizu hesitatingly speaked to his mother.

His voice was trembling from the nervousness, he never realized he'd face a moment where he'll struggle to just let his voice out.

"S-shaizu.. of course it's not wrong, it's just I didn't expect you to love me even for a second, I've done so many horrible things to you"

"Nope, I always cherished my mother."

They both held each other as the moment passed by, stars changed their positions and moved. The tears on both of their eyes didn't stop flowing, it was the never fading love between parent and the child.

After a while they stopped hugging and shaizu decided to finally leave.

"Ahem.. ahem.." Nunama coughed a bit in order to gain their attention..

"Demon boy! your spaceship has been ready, you may now leave your presence and get going, you have to return here once again."

"Don't tell me you're already forgetting it?"

"Yeah yeah, alright.. I'll go now, I'll hurry back once I have filled my family on What's going on."

"Do you believe they'll accept me like this? What if they don't believe in me anymore? Nah I know my family will remember me."

"My mother use to say her existence is completed because of me, and one knows their existince more than anyone else, I will believe!"

"But I don't think I need any spaceship to travel. I will get back on my own way."

He faces his back towards nunama and Madelite, he looks back at them, Madelite is smiling at him, letting him to go. Shaizu finally leaves his smile behind and vanishes.

"And here he is gone. I never expected you to let go of him so easily."

"It's alright, it's needed for him to see freedom. After all he must fulfill his duty of giving the universe it's freedom from the shadows that loom above all our stars."

"He will definitely return."
