Chapter 25 - I'm home, and I'm gone again (2) [End of Volume 1]

[Kamiya PoV]

have i arrived?

"hm...."

I look around, and what i can see is my bedroom, everything is still the same even after four years

My trophies, family photos, my study table, books....and more

And the thing that I remember the most is Issei sleeping on his bed

His face looked like he was crying and sad

"come on...stop make a face like that..."

Even though I say that, to be honest I also missed Issei

I sat down and leaned my back on Issei's bed

"don't be sad just because of this Issei, you will become the strongest Red Dragon Emperor right?"

For me who knows the future, this shouldn't be a big deal, however.... experiencing it directly was more painful than I expected

I stood back up and slowly opened the door

"See you at Kuoh High School....maybe...."

I slowly closed the door again

.

.

.

.

In my parents' room, everything is safe, and even though there's no one around in the middle of the night, I know where they are

the kitchen is always clean as usual, and I open the refrigerator to see the food, and this is a bit sad because there are a lot of my favorite foods

Coffee Jelly

and my favorite drink too, Vanilla Milk

while closing the refrigerator, I finally walked to the living room, where my parents were

I slowly opened the door, and see my parent were sleeping on the sofa, together

their eye bags are wet, and black

saw this, i felt like a failed child

hugging them is a natural action for me, it feels so beautiful to have parents who care so much for me, more than my parents in my first life

this is a blessing from Thirta-sama

"I'm really sorry for making both of you not sleep well all this time."

come to think of it, I have the lyre that Virgo-san gave me....is there a calming effect and other things when I play it?

♪ ~♫

"..."

"..."

"..."

their tears gone...their eye bags are slightly white again

"...this seems like the right choice"

let's play the music that I've learned in my previous life.

.

.

.

.

After playing music for these two minutes, they got better, their faces cleaner and tighter

How do I say it.....they're become younger?

hahaha....I'm afraid I won't knowing they again when we meet again

"just wait a few more years...Mom...dad...I love you two"

Lastly, I have to go soon

before they wake up and find me

*click*

who opened the door??

"...."

"...."

small child....maybe around.....4 years old?

she has long black hair….and brown eyes

"...who..?"

"...."

gosh....I don't know how to answer....if I disappear now, she will wake up mom and dad

"....um....I'm a…. someone who make a dream?"

"dream..?"

"y-yes"

"So… this is a dream?"

"...."

I...don't know what to answer

If I said no, then she would wake everyone up

and if I answer yes, then surely he will ask for things that I can't know...

damn it

"yes...this is a dream.."

"woooow!!!"

"shush, slow down, don't be too loud"

"eh...why? isn't this a dream?"

"..."

i messed it up

"this is really a dream"

"If so, what is the proof?"

"..."

smart kids

I don't know what to do...OH!

"then look at my hand"

"?"

magic in hand, form a ball, and imagine a butterfly

*shine*

"wow....beautiful..."

"..this is a dream butterfly"

I remember the first butterfly I saw in the village with Kimiko, it was bright blue, and it was the most beautiful butterfly I have ever seen

"can you make another one??"

"of course, but not here"

"um...where?"

"come here"

*nod*

so cute, i want to hug her

ahem, forget that

I have to take her to somewhere

"where do you want to go?"

"um....."

"..."

to be honest my heart is not calm, I'm afraid he asked to a place that is very far away, because it really consumes magic

"then, take me to where my Brother is!"

"...your brother?"

"yes!"

"....who?"

her older brother....i don't know who he is

"I...don't really know either, but he has the same characteristics as Mister Dream Maker"

"with me?"

"yes! he has black hair and blue eyes, also he is very handsome! like a prince in a fantasy story"

"..."

he looks like me....oh....dont tell me....

"m-may i know his name??"

"my brother name is..."

"*gulp*"

"Kamiya Onii-chan!"

"..."

No way, no no no no no no no no no no

this is impossible, how can i have a little sister?

is she the same as me? Reincarnator? or a transmigrator?

"..."

"Why are you silent Mister Dream Maker?"

"uh? ah....no, it's fine, then....excuse me.."

I picked her up like a princess, and teleported to nearest place

and it is a children's playground

" we have arrived "

"...is my brother here? "

"….yes..."

"where?"

" over there "

"?"

I pointed at the empty swing

"My brother wasn't there."

"...no, he's there"

"....."

"....."

Of course he wasn't there, because right now, he was carrying you like a princess

" Your brother is invisible, but he can talk to me "

"uh…why can't he talk to me too?"

"hahaha.....Maybe because he doesn't want to be hated"

"hated? by whom?"

"hm....by you....maybe?"

"....I really hate Big Brother."

"...."

ugh.....

her words really pierced my heart, Being hated by children is very different from being hated by adults

"W-why do you hate him?"

"..that…..that's because he makes father and mother sad almost every day..."

"...."

I also hate myself for being like this

"but...on the other side, I also like him because he always makes both of them smile even if it's just a picture"

"...."

Really… I'm the worst

"maybe…Your brother wants to come back too, but he can't"

"....I never thought about that..."

"...."

I've been looking for a way out, but that prison is so deadly, I can't make a single mistake

"...he said....he probably won't be back to home in a short time..."

"...Why? "

"...That's...because... many bad people are after him"

"bad people?"

"yes"

its okay, father and Issei Onii-chan can beat them for brother!"

she threw out her tiny fists like a boxer, it seems she often sees Issei practicing

"haha....He said don't worry, he can take care of everything himself."

"...okay...."

Don't be gloomy, I'll definitely finish all of this soon

"um....Kamiya Onii-chan, can you hear me?"

.....

Yes I can

"he can"

"Is that true???"

*nod*

her eyes lit up and immediately spoke

" so yeah...please hurry back, dad, mom and Issei Onii-chan really miss you, they always look for you non-stop, no matter where and whenever"

"..."

so they.....

"and....dad said Kamiya Onii-chan's room is a special room for them, so when you come back, you will definitely be happy because your room is always clean and unchanged"

.....

"Mom prepared lots of coffee jelly in fridge and vanilla milk, just for you....I once ate a coffee jelly and drank vanilla milk, and mother scolded me, she said it's for you, when you come back, everything is yours"

I want all that too

"and finally...Issei Onii-chan always tells about you, how you are so cool, smart and handsome, like a prince in a fantasy world..."

Issei…you...ugh...forget it

"You fought bad guys for him, and... it make me like you even more..."

"..."

I'm so happy, the number of people who like me is increasing

and.....

my mouth...a little curved....

"I even make a hope to marry you!!"

"!!!!!!????"

what the...

"So....when you come back...I will definitely propose to you!!"

"ha...haha...hahhahahahah!!"

"?...Why are you laughing Mister Dream Maker?"

"haha....no, just.... hahaha"

"ugh....please don't laugh..."

"haha.... sorry...he said he would wait for it"

"Really!!??"

"yes...but…that will be when he returns"

"it's okay, my feelings for Kamiya Onii-chan will never change!"

"...beautiful dream..."

"hehe....thank you..."

It's only a matter of time, little sister, you will realize the truth

"oh...I forgot to ask...what's your name?"

"My name is Suzu!!"

"Suzu...."

good name....

"alright, Suzu-chan, your Kamiya Onii-chan is about to leave, say goodbye"

"uh... really?? I still want to talk to him..."

You can, I'll talk to you as much as you want when I get back

"then... bye-bye....come back soon...we'll all be waiting for you!!!"

"...."

it feels... weird

"then...I'll be going too"

"You're also going Mister Dream Maker??"

*nod*

"My job here is done."

"Oh, I see...."

"Don't look so disappointed, I'll give you sweet dreams next time."

*nod*

"good girl..."

I rubbed her head very gently

"good night... Suzu-chan..."

"good night too...Mister Dream Maker...hoam...*zzzz* "

...

I didn't cast any magic but she's already sleeping?

Well, let's bring her back to her room

but it's still weird....I have a sister who is almost the same age? isn't it just me and Issei?

[Third Person's PoV]

After Kamiya escorted Suzu back to her room, Kamiya returned to the park and sat on the swing where he and Issei used to play together.

♪~♪

"..."

Kamiya plays his lyre so Virgo can come

and as expected, Virgo appeared

she emerged from the void with the light flickering like a firefly

"You called me...my lord..."

"yeah....I have some questions..I hope you can answer me"

*nod*

Virgo nodded without hesitation

"well, how can I enter the realm of tranquility?"

"To enter the realm of Tranquilityy, Lord can activate the possession symbol in the palm of your hand."

"...how do i activate it?

"please say "Path to Tranquility"

"...Path to Tranquility.."

*shine*

the symbols on his palm glowed and formed bright blue lines, it continues to be drawn to his heart

______________________

Refrence : Emiya Shirou Trace on (゚ヮ゚)

______________________

and when all that was done, his body glowed and disappeared.

.

.

.

.

He opened his eyes, and he saw the door he had seen four years ago

"...."

"Congratulations my lord .. you succeeded in one try ... "

Virgo smiled seeing her incredibly talented Master

"..Can...can I come in here all the time?"

"yes...we will welcome you anytime"

"...."

Kamiya fell silent as he recalled the last blessing that Tirtha had given him.

Gate of Tranquility

the most powerful force, not in terms of destruction, but in terms of its potential that can be developed without limits

"...is…Aria-san there?"

"Caretaker-sama?"

*nod*

Virgos are confused

"yes she wa-"

"im here my cute little lord~"

Aria appeared from behind with a bright smile

"Aria-san!"

"caretaker-sama..."

Aria walked towards Kamiya and hugged him

"glad to see you again Kamiya-chan..I really miss you, every time I always think of you."

"...me too..."

"...."

the two of them are like lovers who have been separated for a long time, somehow making Virgo a bit jealous

"ahem! My Lord, please remember why you are here"

"ah- thats right"

"hm? is there something?"

Aria had a confused face

"Aria-san, can I train here for a few years?"

"..."

"..."

Aria fell silent and that worried Kamiya

"sorry, but you can't"

"!?"

"!?"

Virgo and Kamiya were surprised

"Caretaker-sama, please forgive me if I'm being rude, but why?"

"..."

"This... is actually a punishment for forcibly removing the possession symbol"

"...because this?"

Kamiya looked at the symbol on his palm

"yes...it should have been given to you when you were strong enough, but the current you does not have the qualifications for it, and as a punishment, You can only enter this realm of Tranquility for six hours"

"...Oh, I see..."

"...I'm sorry I'm useless my Lord..."

Virgo increasingly depressed because of her uselessness

".. no... Virgo, you've helped me a lot, maybe even, without you...I'm gone.

.thank you...."

"....n-no, it is my duty to become your strength…"

Virgo got excited again, but maybe because of that enthusiasm...her face turned red?

the child's smile made his heart melt, like someone who had just known love

well...we're talking about Virgo after all

"hm…then Aria-san, I will be here for six hours every single day"

"You're welcome here anytime~~~ After all, no matter how much time you spend here, it won't affect the time in your world"

"!"

Kamiya just realized that...

"thank you very much…Aria-san always helped me, even during that time…"

"fufu~~ It doesn't matter~~"

*rub *rub*

"instead it is my duty as a wife to help her husband"

"eh? you say something?"

"no~~ i don't say anything, it's just that you're too cute~"

Aria held her cheek with one hand and rubbed Kamiya's head with the other

Kamiya didn't hear Aria's words, but Virgo who heard that narrowed her eyes at Aria, maybe.... an inner war will occur?

.

.

.

.

After leaving the Realm of Tranquility, Kamiya teleported to the place where he met the fallen angel named Achae.

he looked at his current location which had been made into a building that was attached to the house next to it

he thought, maybe if he wasn't here at that time, he wouldn't have changed

he continues to reflect on his actions while imprisoned, and his encounters with Stella and the others

the reason why he left Stella and the others was because Loki would only chase after him, and another reason was because he knew, that if he got close to his friends, then they would become targets

so he broke away, and hoped that Stella and the others would meet their parents

in this time, Kamiya don't know that Stella, Sienna, Rexa, Reen and Leon will become Azazel's disciple

"...maybe i should not save...."

he remembered the face of the child he saved right, and if he remembered, his face was similar to Rexa...is that a coincidence?

He does not know

"Hey...that kid over there..."

"..?.."

the voice of an old woman calling

she has long black hair, blue eyes and kimono clothes

"why are you alone?"

"...."

Kamiya didn't know how to answer

"I..."

"are you... an orphan..?"

"?!...no..."

"ah...if so...why?"

he couldn't say that he was having trouble with a god

"I'm just...trying to get better..."

"better..?"

*nod*

"I want to be a more useful child when I return to my parents, and make them proud, with my current presence, I will only make them hurt..."

"..."

The old woman somehow understood what this child meant

"Then… how about staying at our house?"

"...at your house?"

*nod*

the old woman nodded gently

"our house has the power to protect you, and make you more developed than now.."

"..."

Kamiya knew that the old woman who was currently speaking was not an ordinary woman

"what…are there conditions that must be met?"

"of course"

*gulp*

Of course he swallowed hard, because he was afraid of the conditions that might be very heavy

However, what he said next would take Kamiya by surprise

"condition is to take care of us like grandchildren who really like their grandparents"

"...."

Kamiya fell silent without a word

"why?"

asking is normal

"you know...we have a grandson who is the same age as you...or maybe a little older, and another who is like a teenage girl, they have their own business..and forget about us.."

"....i see...."

"because of that we miss our grandchildren who often call us "Baa-chan or maybe Ojii-chan" something like that, and helping us, even playing… it felt like a dream…"

"...."

"So...do you want to be our grandson?"

"i...."

"hey...don't go far, you know I'm very old"

old man's voice, black hair and purple to pink eyes

"come here Sitri-san, I'm talk about this kid to being our grandson!"

"gosh...you are..."

he drew near to the old woman's side and looked at the boy

rubbed his chin and said

"hey kid, can you play chess?"

"...I can..."

"good, I have no complaints making him my grandson"

"Looks like we've agreed!"

she was excited like a teenager who has the things she wants

"Wait a minute, does this kid agree?"

"Ah....you're right! So how? you want to accept it?"

"..."

He was still confused

but it's all for the sake of being strong

"I accept it"

"YEAAYY!!!"

"AHEM!"

both are acting funny

it really warmed Kamiya's heart, maybe… this was a chance for him to get back the expressions and feelings he had lost

also, this is his first time having grandparents

because in the first life, he was rejected in his family

"...um...please cooperate for that"

"..."

"..."

both fell silent and smiled

"as a family, we don't say those words...you have to say "let's go home Grandpa, Grandma!" "

"she's right, I can't wait to play chess with my grandson"

"..."

a warm feeling began to develop, and it felt like his mouth was curving up a bit again

"in that case...."

"..."

"..."

"Let's go home, Grandpa, Grandma!"

"sure my grandson!"

"sure thing"

for a few years, he'd be gone, and he'd be back, as a different person and different strength.

"See you in a few year, father....mother...Issei...and....Suzu"
