'Akira...
'What...
'Im sorry and... I love you...
Zuri said that as she began reciting a forbidden spell in a soft whisper
forbidden art spell.. Punisher...
'Wait! Nooooo!!!!
Akira who began to understand the words began to shout loudly with a feeling of fear while making an expression as if he wanted to shed tears..
but what Akira saw was Zuri slowly turning towards him with a soft smile accompanied by happy tears on Zuri's face as if it was their last day together and soon a bright light appeared behind Zuri which caused Akira's vision to be obstructed
"Boom! 'Whoosh!
Aaarrrgh! Nooo!
the magic used by Zuri caused the strongest explosion that caused tremors accompanied by sand mist that was caused by the whirlwind from the explosion while Akira who extended his right hand along with his left hand covering his eyes to prevent the flying dust from entering with a feeling of desperation while shedding tears
***********
after a long time wanting to overcome the fog that prevented him.. Akira managed to hold Zuri's hand and continued to hug her tightly accompanied by Clana who was still unconscious in his grip..after all that.. it was seen that the magnificent palace that stood earlier had collapsed along with all the people inside it disappeared in an instant... but what surprised Akira more was the condition of Zuri who was just standing limp in his lap
'Zuri! are you okay... please tell me if you're okay.. please!...
Akira said that with a desperate tone
'I'm fine but what should I say? I'm not well now
'why did you do that without telling me first?
'........
'Akira...
'Yes?
'let me explain all my lies and mistakes to you
'What do you mean?
Akira replied with a pale expression
'you know... when the two of us teleported to where we escaped from the palace.. I wanted to take advantage of you who behaved naively to save me when I was exposed from my disguise as a pretender and was manipulated by the palace wizards... that's when I gasped if you are the same person as other men who pretend to be good and lust after my body.. but all that is broken when you say you love me sincerely while not wanting to take advantage when I'm in trouble...
'because it's clear that I love you sincerely!
'yes I know,and because I want to feel what it's like to have an intimate relationship with a man, get married, what life is like after marriage because I've never fallen in love with anyone because I think all men are just liars.. but all that was broken because of your presence that gave me pleasure even if it was only for a few weeks. .and I want to tell a bitter truth..are you ready to hear it?
'what is that?
Zuri explained everything with a happy smile while Akira just had a pale face
'my age now is 19 years old.. and when the sun rises it marks the new year and my age goes up to 20 years old..
"so what happened?
'i was born with a curse that made me die when i was 20 years old.. but my younger brother wanted to do a life extension ritual by sacrificing 100 new born children.. so that's why i have golden yellow hair while all my brothers and sisters have black hair.. hair golden yellow indicates that a person has a curse
'what are you talking about?.. hahaha.. this is crazy...
Zuri explained that with a bitter smile while Akira who heard it laughed hysterically
but suddenly Zuri hugged Akira tightly.. and Akira could only remain silent and cry in tears
'hic....hic...don't leave me.. I have no one else in this world if you leave me! hic... please... hic
'I don't want to die either.. because I want to live a long time with you dear.. hic... hic..
Zuri answered followed by a cry with strong shaking hands hugging Akira as hard as she could
Zuri wiped her tears and began to bring her forehead to Akira's as she said..
'don't forget to keep your body clean.. remember this until you get old!
'Alright, I promise that...
'Chu....
Zuri began to kiss Akira softly and after that looked at Akira with a happy smile accompanied by the sun starting to rise while Akira could only smile at the love of his heart who was going to leave him like his family when he was in his world
'protect humanity my dear even though you are hated by all mankind on earth.. and after that you can come to meet me through death and penetrate heaven to meet me once again and forever..
'I promise with my life I will try my best to protect the world even though I don't have great strength
'pft... hahahahaha
'that cringe right..
'yeah..
the sun shone on them both at that moment and suddenly
'Urgh....
At that moment Zuri began to feel extreme pain and said in a weak tone
'kill me to ease my suffering, my dear..
Zuri said that with a weak face and sweat a lot while giving a dagger and a teleportation scroll
hearing that, Akira started to look down and cry as hard as she could while holding the dagger in her grip which was shaking violently while Zuri held Akira's shoulder to strengthen her resolve
'Aaaaarrrrggggghhhhhh!!!!!
Akira shouted as hard as he could to give energy in his hand and stabbed Zuri's stomach hard..
'Thank you my love...
'Hic...hic...
Zuri whispered that softly while Akira just kept his head down with tears falling followed by his hands that were still shaking violently
'Whoong!
Akira could see Zuri's glowing spirit as she smiled and hugged Akira tightly for the last time in her life and her spirit began to disintegrate into pieces as it emitted light and disappeared forever
Akira who returned the hug just smiled when the light disappeared
'Whoosh!
after that a gentle wind passed through the two of them and Zuri's whole body began to crack slowly accompanied by a gray color that began to spread throughout Zuri's body slowly.. and after that Zuri whispered softly in Akira's ear..
'take care of my sister... and I love you..
Zuri's body said that even though her soul was gone
after that all Zuri's body that Akira hugged started to turn into dust and fell slowly after that all of Zuri's body that Akira hugged started to turn into dust and fell slowly with a beautiful smile on his face
Akira just dropped his body on his knees while looking at his wife's dust with a sad expression while shedding tears.. his limp hands while raising his face to the sky..
but suddenly appeared in front of him a writing that he had never seen like a game
[you have been cursed with the curse of love at first sight]
'What...Akira said that as he rubbed his eyes which were still red from the many tears
suddenly Zuri's dust that was still on Akira's knees started to stick all over Akira's body so that it made Akira's skin look pale and Akira started to look at the screen that started to be displayed again and he made a surprised face
[Side effect:the curse owner's face became expressionless forever and show less true feelings]
'What...
Akira said that but his expression was still flat which showed that he had no feelings and furthermore his eyes seemed to be dead without a hint of hope.
'What is this.. is this a system?.. but why am i getting it at a time like this?
but suddenly
'help me catch this person.. this person has been registered as a black class criminal! whoever helps me catch him.. i will give him a big reward!
a woman's voice was heard by Akira.. then Akira turned towards them and saw Zuri younger sister, Clana who made a face full of revenge accompanied by many residents of the empire
'Kill him..
'No.. Wait... This is..
"Hyaaa!!!
Akira tried to explain everything but all the residents of the city began to surround and attack Akira at the same time which caused Akira to tear up the teleportation scroll that Zuri had given earlier
'Scrath...Whoosh!
Akira managed to disappear from there safely...
*********
somewhere...
'Whoosh!
'Urgh!... Where am i... urgh...
Akira who had arrived began to look around and said in a low tone
'This is...
Akira was teleported to the place where Akira and Zuri used to live which caused Akira to daydream about his sweet memories with Zuri while standing expressionless
Akira daydreamed while still holding the dagger and began to raise his head to the sky...
And at that time the rain began to fall slowly accompanied by a strong wind that caused his clothes to be drenched and he began to look down while thinking about something...
