Chapter 72 - Chapter 72:To accept the harsh reality

**************

'he is..me?

Akira then saw a giant monument in the shape of a man holding two war spears standing upright in the middle of the city.

'sir? are you okay?

the leader of the centaur race began to stop his steps because he found the figure of Akira who stopped because he was transfixed when he saw the stone monument of a man who was considered the honor of all races of the border island

'o-oh! no..I'm okay..but may i ask who is he?

'you mean that person?

'yes..

'oh him? he is our hero in the past..

'hero?

'yes! he was known by the nickname The Dark Knight in the past because he often fought with his black armor at night to eradicate the evils of the world, especially the demon races in the Endless war before

'why do you consider him as your hero?

'of course because he is the one who unites us all, especially partial races like us who are often ostracized by our own race.in this world, the half race is a race that is considered the bearer of calamity or shame, therefore we are often ostracized and hated

'oh..I'm sorry for asking randomly without knowing anything about your past

'its okay..it just a past anyway..and you shouldn't ask anymore questions right now because it seems that the chosen one should sleep in a nice bed..plus she doesn't deserve to be allowed to sleep like that..

'ops..my bad..then..can we go?

'follow my lead..

tap...tap..

Akira felt curious about the history of the chosen ones in the past before the appointment of Kiara as the chosen one in this era, but unfortunately his intention was canceled because he had to send Kiara to an inn for her to sleep

****************

cling~

creak..

the sound of the doorbell of an inn was heard as the figure of Akira who was still carrying the sleeping Kiara began to enter the inn

'excuse me..

'o-oh! y-you are!

when Akira headed to the inn owner's counter, a woman from the ox race started to make a smiling expression when she found Akira standing in front of her at that time

It turned out that the woman from the ox race was the owner of the inn and she was very happy because of the arrival of the chosen one in her place

they all think that the arrival of the chosen one in their house is a fortune and a blessing, therefore they become happy because of it

'uh..I..

'welcome sir..just think of this inn as your own home too!

Akira wanted to book a room for Kiara who was still asleep at the time but he was stopped by the owner of the inn as the owner gave Akira the key to the VIP room of the inn at that time

'huh?...uh.. how much i have to pay?

'what are you talking about? Of course this is free because I do this specifically for the chosen ones

'huh?

Akira became confused at that time but soon the innkeeper just smiled

**************

creak..

Akira opened the doorknob of an inn with the key given by the innkeeper

tap...tap..

puff

Akira walked and put Kiara's body slowly on the soft bed so that Kiara wouldn't wake up from her sleep

'phew..

When Akira entered the room, he found that there was only one big bed in the room plus several windows that were still closed tightly

tap..tap..

swish!

whoosh!

Akira walked over and opened the room's window until soon a gentle breeze began to blow into the room

Akira looked at the view of the border island city from the window of the room, the room owned by Akira was the highest room among all the rooms

it looks like the island city is filled with various half-breeds because they are busy with their own lives, the island is like a paradise because all the residents are united without feeling racist towards each other

there are no starving races due to lack of food resources, no political problems or wars. everything seems to be peaceful there compared to the human Empire

'do you want me to build a world like this Zuri?

Akira talked to Zuri's ashes which were still lingering all over his body at that time even though they were hidden by Akira's special abilities at that time

even though Zuri is dead, Akira still feels that Zuri has always accompanied Akira throughout his journey until now

but..will he be able to see her again?

what Akira really wants is his lover Zuri, to be able to see himself being fine without her even just once so that Zuri doesn't feel sad or worried about him..because he is fine..or not?

puff..

'huh?

when Akira was pensive at that time someone started to hug him from behind

'who are..

'hello?

Akira looked back and found Kiara's figure hugging his body tightly followed by a smile

'you awake? you should get more rest

'mooo...you should give me a kiss when i wake up you know!

'why should i do that to you?

'heh..Didn't you express your love for me a few hours ago? did you forget?

Kiara started to frown when she found Akira forgot about the incident a few hours ago

'ops..I'm sorry..

'its okay..

Akira apologized to Kiara but Kiara just smiled while hugging him tightly

At that time, Akira started to say in his mind to Zuri even though Zuri was not by his side anymore

'Zuri...do you see the fact that I'm fine even though you left me? I'm..okay..i accept all the bitter facts, that you will still leave me because you can no longer live with me..

'Because..I'm just actually just an extra character that passed by in your life story..and Main Character can't be together with an extra like me..
