Chapter 1 – The Dark Covenant
A new story, written for those who have given up on life, always revolves around a world filled with corruption and deceit. There are many reasons why this story will be fascinating when the heart and hope for the reality of life are sadder than being slit and ending up in the dirt.
This is not an action fantasy story, rebirth, system, transmigration, or zero to hero as usual, but this is closer to human feelings growing to survive. If I had the chance to play live again, it would be amusing when I could fix everything I've ever done, even as small as sand everyone wants to improve.
This story may sound boring when you first read it and enjoy the plot, but the grammar needs to be corrected. However, RayGenus assures me that this is a story taken from a true story where the human imagination expects more than what is imagined. No leading male or female characters are more dominant, so as a wise reader, enjoy this excellent novel rather than other novels.
Tokyo 06/11/2022
The roads are slippery, and you need extra patience to go down the steep streets, even though they have a handle so they don't fall every time they take a step. In the end, no one is safe if they ignore what's in front of their eyes.
Dusk began to disappear, and many people passed by after work and school who had done various kinds of school activities in a big city and the busiest country in the world. Tokyo was included in the list of the best cities. The sun was no longer circulating in the sky.
No one will be silent while waiting to enjoy the busyness of people who forget to look at the clock permanently attached to their hand. On that day, the office started to stop operating hours work if, at night, especially those sitting in front of a desk all day shut down to rest.
A woman forgets to wear an umbrella or one when it rains. The make-up sticks to her face are shapeless, but her face is beautiful, every street that is passed by, many people look at her closely. Sometimes some people approach him to ask for a number to say hello on social media, but that desire immediately changes when he sees his appearance.
They shuddered as if they had met an alien from another planet or had an expression like they had just seen a ghost. The phone in her pocket was ringing, and the call on behalf of Yohan's manager was ignored. He knew this was a party held after the sale of the company where the girl worked and made a lot of profit.
So it is common for the products sold at the company to be the longest on every street corner with the same picture. They even have automatic machines if they want to buy a can of beer said to be made by virgin girls. She turned to a figure similar to her, remembering the first time Yohan's manager asked her to be their product's face, so her salary was double the previous salary.
Yohan Nara looks like an angel to the woman where money received is intended for treatment at her sister's hospital for brain surgery. She is lucky because her only family survived after undergoing surgery. Her feelings changed the same day, so she was not interested in going home or accompanying her newly awakened sister.
She continued to walk in the direction she had planned before, even though she had gone that way together when they were still at school, but for the first time in the evening after the rain, she dared to walk alone in a slightly further direction. Even though the rain has stopped, the humidity still feels uncomfortable brewing on the skin.
She held her cell phone, which stopped ringing, and started typing a farewell message to her little sister. Not forgetting that she also sent a custody message to one of the foundations that had entrusted her sister's life to be better, as Naomi's sister, the name pinned on her chest felt useless.
Since her birth, her parents always expected, have neglected her. When a fetus grows in her mother's stomach after a divorce, Naomi knows her mother planted the seeds of an affair with a rich but irresponsible man.
After the birth of her sister, Naomi's mother just left, so they lived in an orphanage and grew up in the shelter. Even though it's called an orphanage, what happens in that place is far from the minds of other adults. When appearance is everything, then one's life will improve by itself.
Since his younger brother is sick, he often has evil thoughts about killing his younger sibling, so he doesn't feel more pain than this. But when that thought arose, no one would accompany him until now. Without realizing she had arrived in a forest filled with many haunted and neglected trees. The forest is famous because many people have died to commit suicide and avenge the mistakes made throughout life.
The location she had visited would be crowded during the day as people from outside wanted to know more about the forest. Not even a beautiful nickname would change the feeling of shuddering for those cowardly looking into the woods.
Naomi took out the longer bag that crossed her arm, and she realized a small kiosk and a child was sitting under an umbrella by an adult man. Naomi thought the shop was just a seller of goods such as predictions and exorcist tools such as those commonly found on the streets.
When Naomi thought she had passed the place across the street, there was still a similar shop that had just been given. She was sure that she had crossed that place, but this time Naomi felt that it was due to the effects of too much alcohol. Several times she found the shop still welcoming her arrival at the entrance gate in the forest.
"Are you ignoring me?" asked the little girl. The hair is very long, and the eyeballs are big and dark one would not think that at night it will cause horror as if you have seen a ghost at that very moment. Naomi feels the figure of a small child is not much different from her sister lying in the hospital.
She stood up, and the person holding her umbrella did not come with her when. Naomi thought that she was an evil sister and let her child get wet in the rain and protected the empty chair from getting wet. She offers Naomi to improve her life rather than die and leave her sister, who will soon be healthy.
She should be happy to get the news because she no longer has to consider the hospital fees Naomi will bear. But anyone who listened to it from a child's side would believe it was just a hoax. The child needs to convince people who have been discouraged from living his life by waiting for a long time he will grant all requests to Naomi.
Instantly her footsteps stopped at that moment, and she cried because she remembered her sister, who would be alone even though they lived by complementing each other. The burden was too heavy, and there was nothing else to do. She told everything to the little boy, even though adults wouldn't think a conversation with a kid would change something but Naomi felt relieved again when she said the problems that had happened so far.
Even though she has tried hard to be seen as good, at least she doesn't care about other people's opinions about her. From the beginning, she just wanted to work as a good employee and live peacefully with her only sister.
The little boy took the rope tightly held by Naomi and prepared to kill. But the string got wet and hanging a human body that night would be harmful. Naomi agreed to the child's offer and only asked that the slap rope she was holding be in the person's house who had hurt her so far for seven days in the room.
She didn't just say that, but the little boy just gave a small hourglass to Naomi, and she suddenly disappeared with a light like a firefly while carrying a rope that was still wet.
