Chapter 3 - 【Chapter 1 : Asteria 】

"Ahhh!!"

My eyes suddenly opened. I gasped in shock. Cold sweat soaked my body which also felt very cold and stiff. Suddenly I felt very alive. Like a zombie who has just been given life.

I coughed and blood suddenly poured out of my mouth. I looked at my hands which were stained with my coughed up blood. I was wide-eyed.

"Woah!!" I'm surprised.

A woman who I didn't realize had been supporting me looked so surprised.

Who's she? Her hair is long brownish blonde. Her blue eyes looked at me full of surprise before finally softening again. And her face looked so relieved.

Both of our bodies were soaked by the heavy rain. I slowly sat up. Staring at her in confusion.

"Who are you?" I asked.

"Watch out!" she shouted suddenly.

The woman suddenly hugged me and jumped backwards. I fell towards him. A bullet almost hit us. The bullet then exploded. I was shocked to death.

The woman sighed, "That was close."

In a ravine above me there was a man standing looking at the two of us. A revolver was clutched in his hand.

His appearance is so strange. He is a bearded man in cowboy-style clothing with a mysterious aura. His gray irises stared at me as if he intended to pounce on me.

"Where are you going to run?" he growled.

The man in the cowboy then shot as fast as light and grabbed me, "It's useless for you to run."

The woman immediately screamed hysterically, "Awaii!!"

"Who are you?! What's wrong with me?!" I shouted in pain.

The man then strangled my neck while lifting you up. I then rebelled but in vain.

The woman shouted, "Let him go! What do you want with my daughter?! She didn't do anything!"

She swiftly took out a pink crystal bow which suddenly appeared from her hand. The bow then glowed. An arrow appeared as soon as he pulled the arrow string. She directed the arrow at the cowboy man in front of her.

It's a shame that the man doesn't pay attention to the woman in front of him at all. All his attention was focused on me.

"Before you could release the arrow, maybe your daughter's body would have been torn apart." the cowboy man just threatened casually.

"Let go of my daughter!" snapped the woman.

The woman was about to shoot the cowboy, but her whole body was shaking. She hesitated to shoot it. She just looked at me with a frightened look.

Meanwhile, I groaned in pain. I can't breathe. I kicked his chest with my feet, but that only made his stranglehold tighter.

"What did you put―into my body?" I asked choked up.

I feel strange. It felt like there was something―fluid entering my body. This man's fingers turned into claws and pierced my neck. Blood flowed past my nose and lips.

My consciousness is getting weaker and weaker. I couldn't move my body again. My whole body went limp and my breath came ragged.

My eyes stared blankly at the sky which was pouring out its feelings for me. I'm scared. My body trembled. I feel like I want to cry.

The man grinned, "Oh? It's just a liquid kid. You don't need to worry."

"This blood will tell you a very extraordinary power." he continued.

"Who are you?! I don't understand what you mean!" I screamed in pain.

"Oh? We met some time ago, how could you forget me?" Obviously the man.

"My name is Revanov. Remember that kid, because we will be partners after this." he continued.

The man who said his name was Revanov strangled me harder. My neck would break if he continued strangling me. I coughed. Blood poured from my neck.

Revano looked at me sharply. "Kid, you are someone who is blessed with the power of a god. But even with that much power, you are unable to fight me."

"It seems you talk to the wrong person." I tried to defend myself.

"Do not be stupid." He growled as he continued to strangle me strongly.

"Stop it, I don't understand what you're talking about―Agh―" I groaned in pain.

Bum―

A voice suddenly emerged from inside my head.

"Welcome back." Greet a woman.

Bzzt―

"Awaii!! Please, save Asteria―argh―"

"Can you see it..? Everyone died because they hoped for you! Why didn't you do anything!!"

"Do you know what you've done? You killed them all."

"What has happened to you! Why are you doing all this? No―Why do you have to feel this? I don't understand."

"Awaii.."

Bzzt―

Whose voice is this? Why do they fill my head?

Bzzt―

"Do you like roses?"

"You stupid ungrateful child. Why can't you be normal like other children?"

Slap!!

"Just stay alive. Fight, if you need anything, call me. I will always be by your side."

"I...want...to die..." groaned a voice similar to mine from inside my head.

"Don't you ever dare to save me!!"

"Why...did you just watch mom..?"

Bzzt―

"This..voice-..who is it?"

Tears dripped from my eyes down my cheeks.

Bzzt―

"Awaii!"

"Stop, stop appearing inside my head!!"

"God of life."

"Stop, that's enough, who are you guys?!"

"4£@-*"*?!1"

"Stop.."

"Auvy?" Call my voice from inside my head.

"ARGHHH!!!" I SHOUTED.

Bzzt―

My eyes suddenly opened. I feel strange. It felt like I was connected to the stars in the sky above.

Immediately my body warmed. My chest was pounding. A white flame suddenly burned my body. The fire healed all the wounds and pain I felt.

"Magic?!" I said weakly.

Revanov was immediately shocked. It also caught fire. He immediately released his stranglehold. The monster's hand immediately threw me to the ground while hissing in pain.

I fell to the ground. Using all my strength, I struggled to stand up. The woman immediately grabbed me with a panicked look.

"Shit!" Revano hissed.

The cowboy man looked like he was in pain. He patted his burned hands. However, the white fire burned even more on his body.

"Impossible―" surprised the woman.

Revanov didn't have time to dodge. He bounced and fell to the ground. He groaned in pain.

The woman behind me who saw this opportunity immediately took out her bow again and pointed it at the sky, "Awaii! Get away from there!"

I gasped before nodding and quickly walking away.

Elegantly, her left hand immediately held the bow and the other pulled back the transparent thread on the bow. A glass arrow appeared again.

The woman immediately closed her eyes and faced the sky.

"Oh, The lord of punishment. Through the sky until the the radiance of a burning star. Allow me to punish this sinner!" said the woman.

She immediately aimed her arrow which glowed bright blue at the sky. The arrow turned into a giant arrow that shot out while emitting light with a tail like a comet.

As soon as the arrow passed through the cloudy clouds. The rain immediately stopped and the sky immediately turned bright. The stars seemed to sparkle in the sky. Arrows continued to shoot into the sky.

The woman looked expectantly at the sky. Suddenly Revano, who was about to get up, immediately fell down. His body was slowly destroyed by reddish flames.

The woman smiled in relief, "Thank goodness."

I stared in surprise, "What did you just do..."

My consciousness suddenly disappeared. I was exhausted and immediately fell.

The woman immediately ran to hold me so I wouldn't fall. The woman sighed. The atmosphere slowly returned to calm.

The woman then put her white blazer on me so that I wouldn't get cold.

She smiled in relief, "Thank god, nothing bad happened."

"Who are you...?" I asked half-consciously.

The woman tilted her head. Looking at me amused, "Hera. Your mother. Get some rest. Mama will carry you."

"My mother..?" I asked again.

This woman named Hera immediately carried me and walked away from this wilderness.

He traced the rocky river channel from the waterfall where I had fought until he reached the foot of the mountain. A car was seen on the side of the highway near the fence.

The view of the sky filled with stars continues to shine illuminated by moonlight accompanied by each twinkle in the decoration of a galaxy lane. It looked very beautiful, unlike my world which was covered in light pollution.
