Born without a weapon, every human being is equipped with a suitable brain. No one is born a loser, everyone is a born winner. If the person's future life is bad and instead becomes a loser, then there is something wrong in living life.
Like a boomerang, life will always come back. Whatever we do, whether good or bad, the impact will surely come back to us.
A loser I once killed said, "This world is so cruel. If you survive without your abilities, you will lose." Those words are still in my mind to this day. Whatever the loser said, it's still tied up in my mind.
"Dead! Die! How dare you kill your father. You die, bastard!"
It sounded clear to my ears. The voice was full of an explosive tinge of emotion, aiming right at me.
"If you knew thanks, you shouldn't have killed your father!"
No matter what that man said, the man who became my older brother, I will not respond and will not regret what I have done.
"Eh, seriously? He killed his father?"
"Yes, that's right. Even though his father was an army general, and he was even a major and became his father's subordinate, but he killed his father."
"Hey, seriously? Is he an army major?"
"Yes, it is true. At the age of only 21 years, he was able to become an army major. Well, although it's also thanks to his father."
Tch... that sucks.
Several humans were talking about me, looking as if they understood everything.
They assume what they see, not the facts. All humans are like that. I call it "knowingly".
"Hurry up and get in the car!"
With ease, the cop pushed me into the car.
Arrested with murder, that's when this happens. Acting, however, I won't be able to avoid what happened.
It's useless, maybe that's what I pictured in my mind.
No matter how great you are, if you deal with the law, you won't be able to do anything about it.
Again, though, I don't regret what happened.
With my t-shirt and pants covered in blood, I sit in this car seat, enjoying my time in this car, and leaning back to wait until it's time for this to end.
"Can I have a cigarette, please?"
Because it's cramped and doing nothing, I just want to do activities in this car.
Without answering my request, he handed me a cigarette and put it in my mouth.
"Can these handcuffs be removed? At this rate, I can't smoke."
Due to my strange request, he hit me in the face regardless of my rank as a soldier.
"Don't think we're cops, you can do whatever you want!"
"Yeah, yeah, yeah..."
He was already angry with me, but I smoked without using my hands, immediately smoked from my mouth, inhaling and exhaling smoke with the cigarette in my mouth.
Glancing to the side that looks cloudy with raindrops starting to fall, I thought the weather would be bad today.
"Today, it looks like a storm is coming."
The black clouds blended, giving a thunderous sound that was heard in the ears of humans on this earth. No one knows when the storm will arrive, although the weather forecast is clear.
For a soldier like me, I don't even know when the storm will descend even though I can see the black cloud there.
The wind that blows and enters the car window, sweeps my cigarette smoke and makes my cigarettes run out quickly.
Just like this cigarette, my life in this world will quickly run out and end. Because from any point of view, my case is very serious and I'm sure I will get the commensurate punishment.
I already knew that even had prepared everything before I was punished for my actions. Every action has a risk, I already know and give myself the best I can to bear the risk that I will get later.
Afraid? No, I'm not afraid at all. Saddened by my father's death? No, instead I feel relieved that I killed him. Cry? What for? For my father's death? Not! So, what feelings do I have right now? I don't know, I can't describe this feeling, it can be said to be sick, it can also be said to be suffering, mixed into a strange feeling.
But at least, I know one feeling that I experienced a few days ago until now, feeling angry, angry with this world, angry with the humans in this world, angry with myself who can't do anything and prevent anything... even angry with this life. No matter how angry I am, all my life, I only vent this anger for today, namely by killing my father.
"Why are you grinning like that? Have you gone mad after killing your father?"
Maybe he saw me smiling, that's why he asked in confusion.
"Nothing."
"…You psychopath."
Not answering that sentence, I took a deep breath of cigarette smoke and then exhaled slowly.
At least, I know what's best for me.
***
Court day.
Arriving at the court office after being interrogated and beaten several times and admitting all my actions, I was slowly brought inside to attend the trial which I had committed a few days ago.
When the door was opened, I saw many people sitting there watching me walk in. And that person, the man who became my older brother, was also there.
"Dead! Get rid of it! You had the heart to kill our father when he was happy. You bastard, you just die! You are ungrateful, even though father has always cared about you."
Pausing for a moment, I looked at him so intently.
"What cares about me? You... you can only talk nonsense. You just enjoy that woman. Besides, a father is gone."
"Fuck… you…"
Several glances stared at me with an astonishing aura, making me have to continue walking instead of engaging with him.
"Oi, you just die!"
"Yeah, yeah, yeah, that's better, than me living in the same world as you."
Smiling for a moment, relieved by the whole thing, I sat down right in front of the attorney who was already clutching his hammer.
The proceedings of this trial, the absence of sanctions that defended me and even dropped me until I had to sigh, the atmosphere was noisy with each other and after I resignedly admitted what I had done, the attorney concluded my sentence according to what I did.
"The accused, Ryuki Kotara, 21 years old, a former army major, for what he has done, killed Gio Kotaro, you are sentenced to death!"
The sound of thunderous applause greeted my punishment.
"Good, that's great. He deserves the death penalty."
"Prosecutor, thank you, now there is no more public trash in this world."
Noisy!
"Thank you, Prosecutor."
"This world is not suitable for a traitor like him."
Noisy!
"This way, my neighborhood is safe."
Noisy!
"Ryuki..."
Hearing a voice calling my name, I turned to the side and saw some of my former subordinates there who were wearing worried faces looking at me.
"Ah, sorry, I will die, and leave you guys. You look for a better leader than me, and don't forget what I teach."
Saying that in a low voice, I'm sure they'll hear that even if it's quite a distance away from me.
One of my subordinates cried seeing me like this, as if not expecting that I would become like this.
Even so, at least I gave them everything I had taught them. And don't forget, I smile at them.
"The court is closed!"
With the sound of that hammer knocking, this trial was closed and I was sentenced to death which would arrive shortly.
***
"What do you want?"
"Ah, maybe I just want to smoke, and give me a moment."
"Okay, I'll give it."
Given a cigarette, and he left the guard's room, I contemplated in this room one last time.
Burning one cigarette, I began to lean back and remember the happy moments of living in this world.
"Mother, at least, I was right with my decision. And it looks like we'll see each other later. Thank you all, you great friends, for accepting me as I am. Thank you also my sister for smiling and giving me my birthday present. Sorry... I can't help you guys. Life is short, no one knows when death will come. But at least, I've learned a lot from this life."
Crying and remembering those moments, I reflect.
"Had I not been late, perhaps you wouldn't have died."
"It is time."
Sighing after hearing the voice, I stubbed out my cigarette and led him somewhere with the handcuffs already attached to my hands.
Surrendered to all this, I continued to walk with some tight control.
They were afraid that I would run away. Even though I'm ready, why are they even guarding me so tightly?
Walking quite a distance down this long corridor, I finally saw a light ahead.
When I got there, I saw several people already holding rifles in their hands, who were likely to be my executioners.
Taking a deep breath and then exhaling slowly, I approached the place that had been prepared for me.
Some people looked at me with pleasure, very few looked at me with sadness, it seemed as if they were happy to greet me after I sat at this execution site.
Do I need harakiri? Why not just use a stunning bench? It's cooler though.
Pulling the trigger of their rifle, aiming right at where I was, I smiled proudly.
"Boom! I thought it would be cool if someone blew up this place, killing all the greedy humans in this world."
Yare, yare... what am I talking about?
"Ready... shoot!"
BANG! BANG! BANG!
The rifle bullets were heading towards me, I just kept smiling at the end of my life.
KREEK!
Two bullets hit my right and left abdomen and instantly made blood come out.
Simultaneously, a red light enveloped my body and made the other bullets bounce off and not touch my body.
Many are surprised by this, even I am also surprised. But even so, they still shot me because there were still bullets in the rifle.
But after a few bullets bounced off due to this red light, I started to feel weak because of the wounds on both sides of my stomach, making my eyesight blurry and unclear.
Ah, maybe I died not from being shot, but from blood loss. In this case, this is not what is called the execution of the death penalty, but more towards death due to loss of blood. I thought this would shock the world later, for failing to execute me. Also, what red light is this? What is the light of hell? Very weird.
Before slowly closing my eyes due to blood loss, suddenly my surroundings changed, many strange buildings beside me, even worse, I heard an explosion not far from where I was.
Oh, what is this? Is this the so-called hallucination of death? It turns out that death is like this. Not bad either.
"Oi, you… help me! I already summon you, so help me now!"
Hah? Help you? Who's that?
With my vision getting blurry, I saw a silver-haired girl with cat ears in front of me who was holding something there with her sword.
Ears... those are cat ears. Do angels today have no wings, but cat ears?
"Oi, help me! My magic has run out, I can't stand to fight this monster anymore."
Because it was noisy and kept asking for help, I forcefully stood up staggering.
When I got there, I kicked something causing it to crash into the wooden building.
"Noisy. You don't need to ask for help, you just need to be strong. If you can do it, don't ask someone else to do it. It's useless if you have a sword if you can't use it."
"That's why I summon you here to help me. I can't do anything, that's why I ask you for help."
Because my body was so weak, I didn't hear what she said.
"Oh, bad..."
DEEEGG!
Falling onto her shoulder, I fainted from these wounds on both sides of my stomach.
But before that, I saw the moon so bright and clear behind her, but strangely, the moon was red.
Ah, this place deserves to be dark, the moon turned out to be red. Oh my goodness, it's true, hell is synonymous with the color red.
"Oi, why did you faint? I called you not to faint. If you faint, who else can I ask for help? Oi, wake up!"
