Chereads / Shatter the Bad Ending! / Chapter 39 - Resolution (7)

Chapter 39 - Resolution (7)

As Wyatt look at the moon he soon opened his mouth,

"I'm not the only person in my soul,"

The handle of my gun shook,

What?

That was never mentioned in the novel.

No,

He could be lying,

Yeah, he must be.

There's no way that's true

I steel my resolve and ready my aim,

Even if he is telling the truth,

I'm sorry Wyatt,

I have to kill you here and now,

For the sake of my own surviva-

"I only wanted to live,"

A somber voice snapped me out of my thoughts,

Wyatt was gazing at the moon, its delicate light was shining on his face, his tears and blood were slowly dripping on the floor.

Then,

He closed his eyes, and soon, a bittersweet smile appeared on his face.

Damn it,

DAMN IT,

GOD F*CKING DAMN IT,

WHY CAN'T HE JUST BE ONE OF THOSE 3RD-RATE VILLAINS,

WHO R*PE AND MURDER JUST FOR THE SAKE OF IT?

WHO TRIES TO F*CK OVER THE PROTAGONIST FOR THE PETTIEST REASONS?

I let out a deep sigh, and raise my head up to the sky.

Through the glass window above, I could see the moon.

I'm not a good person,

But,

I look back at Wyatt,

The pitiful sight left a sour taste in my mouth.

[You have to kill him, my child,]

A soothing voice then rang in my head.

It was Theos,

[Even if you spare him, he would just continue to suffer with the curse he was born with,]

I know,

[Have you forgotten?]

[If you falter now, you will grow weaker]

I know,

[Being weak, will not help you fulfill your hope, young one]

I KNOW,

ALRIGHT,

I KNOW THAT FULL WELL.

Yet,

No matter what I say to myself,

No matter what Theos says, even if they are the harsh truth.

My finger on the trigger would not budge,

No matter what I do, I can't bring myself to kill him.

I'm so pathetic,

[....]

[Do you want to save him, my child?]

Yes,

[Even if it makes you weaker?]

Yes,

[As you wish,]

I then lower my gun and soon spoke,

"Look at me,"

Wyatt opened his eyes full of tears and gazed at me.

I could feel Theos,

Slowly enveloping my body with his darkness.

But as Wyatt stares at me,

He soon grabbed his head,

He was grunting non-stop as he held it,

[The voices in his head, are fighting back, young one,]

Then as Wyatt struggled, he opened his mouth.

"Pl-please, kill me,"

"Th-they're taking over,"

"I-I can't hold them any longer,"

I could feel the pain in his voice.

[Something is coming, my child]

What do you mean?

[I sense the presence of my brother]

You're what!?

You're BROTHER?

Then?

One of the gods?

Is he the one inside Wyatt!?

[No, but this is his doing, I am sure of it]

SH*T

I DIDN'T EXPECT THIS

Wyatt then stopped struggling, as Theos came back into my body.

He raised his head from the ground and looked at me,

His eyes were completely red and was wearing a grin full of malice.

Soon a brown aura soon emanated around him,

It was full of violence and hatred.

BROWN AURA?

Then it hit me,

There's only one god who has authority over that aura,

Caro,

A Dead God.

Ah, f*ck

"For my liege, we will offer him your flesh,"

As Wyatt spoke, countless voices overlapped the voice full of authority coming out of Wyatt.

He soon charged at me,

I know full well I can't block that,

So I blinked away.

*CRASH*

The area where I stood was decimated.

The flooring was destroyed leaving a pit.

He then raised his head and looked at me,

His terrifying smile gave me shivers.

Can't you defeat him Theos?

[I lack the power to do so,]

[And my strength beyond the chasm of your body is lacking.]

But what if-

Yet before I could finish my sentence,

Wyatt started to charge at me once again.

But instead of running,

This time, I kneeled.

"Glory to Caro,"

I could feel the wind brushing past me as he stopped his sword right at my neck.

"You, know, our liege?"

I then raise my head at Wyatt, his eyes covered in red looked at me with interest.

"Yes, I am here to offer my vessel for Caro,"

Wyatt then crouched right in front of me.

Soon he took off my mask, revealing my face.

"You hold a strange familiar power, stranger,"

The countless voices almost made my ear bleed.

"That will be more useful than a count's child,"

His face then got close to me, to the point I could smell his breath.

"We the dead followers of Caro, accept your offer,"

Then he suddenly moved forward.

WHAT THE F*CKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKK

After he did, Wyatt's body fell to the ground.

I soon stood up,

Trying my hardest to ignore the fact I got f*cking kissed by a man.

As I approached him,

He was still breathing,

But then,

Countless voices rang inside my head forcing me to my knees.

"YOU ARE OUR PUPPET NOW,"

"DAY AND NIGHT WE ARE HERE,"

"HEED OUR BIDDING,"

"FOR THE GLORY OF CA-"

[Hey]

"WHAT"

"WHO ARE YOU"

[This body is already occupied]

"WHAT?"

[Return to your god, parasites]

"WE WILL REMEMBER THIS"

"WE WILL NOT FORGE-"

One by one the voices inside my head were disappearing.

I soon stood up and looked at Wyatt, one last time.

"Live free now, Wyatt,"

Then slowly I made my way out of the greenhouse.
